4. 升天的法寶 Juristic Treasures for Ascension；5. 建海邊別墅 Build a Seaside Villa；6. 東海海嘯 East Sea Seaquake

順便說一下與墨西哥文化相應的中華文化中的四件升天必備的法寶。如圖15四王天牌坊上所畫的，從左向右第一件法寶是個螺殼，代表嫘祖。她是中華民族的始祖母，又名夏娃，舜王，小龍女，順皇。在佛教中稱作美女寶，觀音菩薩。在編者我的家鄉仍有女兒出嫁帶着一個大螺殼的習俗。

第二件法寶是一粒種子。在中國佛教中這件法寶也被稱作種子，但在《中華法典》中稱為秘訣：眾生無邊誓願度，煩惱無盡誓願斷，法門無量誓願學，佛道無上誓願成。

Incidentally, here are the four essential treasures for ascension in Chinese culture corresponding to Mexican culture. As depicted on the Four Kings Sky Archway in Figure 15, the first treasure from left to right is a conch shell, representing Lei Ancestor. She is the matriarchal ancestor of the Chinese nation, also known as Eve, King Shun, Little Dragoness, and “White-King Shun”. In Buddhism, she is revered as the Beauty Treasure, the Guanyin Bodhisattva. In editor my hometown, there remains a custom where brides carry a large conch shell on their wedding day.

The second juristic treasure is a seed. In Chinese Buddhism, this treasure is also called a seed, but in the Chinese Codex it is referred to as secret passwords: “Sentient beings are edgeless; I vow I ferry them all! Annoyances are endless; I vow I sever them all! Juristic doors are limitless; I vow I study them all! Buddha’s path is non-upper; I vow I endeavour to succeed!”

第三件法寶是個燧火石，代表燧人氏：玉皇大帝。他是此次女媧造人工程的發起者，以犧牲自己的生命為代價，點燃了中華文明的聖火。這是從他用死不瞑目詛咒了大禹，犧牲了十年的陽壽來說的。

第四件法寶就是前文講的經繩（如圖36，37），其內涵如圖38.

The third juristic treasure is a flintstone, representing Flint Man: Turquoise White-king Great Creator. He initiated the creation of humanity by Nüwa, sacrificing his own life to ignite the sacred flame of Chinese civilization. This is evident from his “die with eyes open” curse upon Big Yu and his sacrifice of ten years of his solar lifespan.

The fourth juristic treasure is the sutra-rope mentioned earlier (as shown in Figures 36 and 37), whose essence is illustrated in Figure 38.

5. 建海邊別墅 Build a Seaside Villa

堯皇，二郎神，和西王母一起商量，怎樣讓大禹和舜王儘快地誕下龍的傳人。他們決定讓娥黃和女嬰帶着丈夫陪大禹和舜王一起去東海度蜜月。堯皇對娥黃說：“去的路上就不給你們安排接見地方官員了。到鄮縣之後，大禹就覺着到家了，心情就舒暢了。你們在那裡接見地方官員。現在國泰民安，幾乎什麼事都沒有。給你三個月的假，好好玩。半年也行，你就隨便找個藉口，做點什麼簡單的事。”

二郎神卻不放鬆，找女英單獨談話：“這次你們外出旅行，由你全面負責舜王和大禹的安全—”

White-king (Emperor) Yao, Second Wolf God, and King Mother of the West deliberated on how to hasten the birth of the descendants of dragon by Big Yu and King Shun. They resolved to send Beauty Yellow and Heroine, accompanied by their husbands, to join Big Yu and King Shun on their honeymoon at the East Sea. White-king Yao instructed Beauty Yellow: "We shall not arrange for you to meet local officials along the way. Upon reaching Mao County, Big Yu felt as though he had returned home, and his spirits lifted. There, you may receive local officials. Now that the realm is peaceful and the people content, there is scarcely any business to attend to. I grant you three months' leave to enjoy yourselves. If you wish, extend it to half a year—simply find a suitable excuse and perform some minor duties."

Second Wolf God, however, remained vigilant. He sought out Heroine for a private conversation: “During this journey, you bear full responsibility for the safety of King Shun and Big Yu—”

他們到鄮縣的東海邊後，很快就找到了一塊荒無人煙的寬闊海灘。幾個人都很高興，開始找露營地。其它人都喜歡在海邊露營，但女嬰堅持要在離海邊1.5公里遠的半山腰建立營地，說是要躲避洪水。”

大禹反駁說：“這周圍是平原，哪裡來的洪水呀！？”

After reaching the East China Sea coast of Mao County, they quickly found a wide, deserted beach. Everyone was delighted and began looking for a campsite. The others preferred to camp on the beach, but Heroine insisted on setting up camp halfway up a mountain, 1.5 kilometers from the shore, saying it was to avoid the flood.

Big Yu retorted, "This area is a plain; where would a flood come from?!"

女嬰回答：“我問了夏國的將軍，他們說這地方沒人住，就表示這裡曾經發過洪水。幾年前炎帝就是在陝北的一片平原地區被洪水衝到天上去的。”

大禹不出聲了。

娥黃連連向女嬰擺手示意：（你別提炎帝，大禹會哭的！）她問女嬰：“那我們要不要建一棟別墅來抗颱風啊！？”

Heroine replied, "I asked the generals of the Xia Kingdom, and they said that since no one lives here, it means there was a flood. A few years ago, Creator Yan was swept to the sky by a flood in a plain in northern Shanxi."

Big Yu fell silent.

Beauty Yellow waved her hand repeatedly at Heroine, gesturing: (Don't mention Creator Yan, Big Yu will cry!) She asked Heroine, "Should we build a villa to withstand typhoons?!"

大禹迷惑地說：“建別墅有什麼用？還沒建好呢，我們就回去了！”

娥黃說：“我們女人兩天就能蓋成一棟別墅，最多三天。如果遇到連雨天，還是房子住着舒服！”

博士和男嬰都表示不信女人能三天蓋成一棟別墅。

Big Yu said, puzzled, "What's the use of building a villa? We'll be going back before it's even finished!"

Beauty Yellow replied, "We women can build a villa in two days, three days at most. And if it rains continuously, a house is much more comfortable!"

Doctor and Hero both expressed disbelief that women could build a villa in three days.

大禹說：“如果能親眼看看這三個女人三天內建一棟別墅，那我們真不枉此次的東海之行！”

女嬰說：“你們仨太小看我們女人了，我們仨曾經用11個月建成一座皇宮。”

娥黃又向女嬰擺手：（你閉嘴！）

Big Yu said, "If we could witness these three women building a villa in three days, our journey to the East Sea would have been worthwhile!"

Heroine replied, "You three underestimate us women. We three once built a palace in eleven months."

Beauty Yellow waved her hand at Heroine again: (Shut up!)

大禹好奇地問舜王（即嫘祖）：“你們還有這光輝業績，能不能去參觀一下那座皇宮！”

舜王回答：“你們看不着了！那座皇宮由於女嬰的防火工作做的不好，被燒毀了！”

女嬰沮喪地說：“哎呀！我忘了！今天我得去我的將軍司令部值班！”說着，她離開了。

Big Yu asked King Shun (aka. Lei Ancestor) with curiosity, “You have such glorious achievements—could we visit that imperial palace?”

King Shun replied, “You won't be able to see it! That palace was destroyed by fire because Heroine failed to prevent it!”

Heroine said dejectedly, "Oh dear! I forgot! I must go to my general's headquarters for duty today!" With that, she left.

娥黃說：“好！我這就去畫圖紙！我畫完圖紙就開始計時！”兩個小時之後，她拿着別墅的結構透視圖和材料清單回來了。

三個男人看後都說：“這圖紙不是她畫的，使她以前準備好的！”

娥黃無可奈何地說：“怎麼你們什麼都不信呢！讓舜王建給你們看！我去安排一下接見地方官員的事！”說完她也離開了。

Beauty Yellow said, “Alright! I'll go draw the blueprints right away! Once I finish, we'll start the timer!” Two hours later, she returned with the villa's structural perspective drawings and a materials list.

After examining them, the three men declared, “These drawings aren't hers—she must have prepared them beforehand!”

Beauty Yellow sighed helplessly, “Why won't you believe anything I say? Let King Shun build it for you! I'll go arrange the meeting with the local officials!” With that, she too departed.

舜王領着三個男人去挖地基坑。

第二天早晨山下來了很多車，運來了磚瓦和木料。第三天早晨房屋的框架立起來了。上面有人建屋頂，旁邊有人砌牆。還有人在掩埋地基。

晚上三個男人回來的時候，驚奇地發現：別墅建好了。施工的人們已經開始平整場地，栽花種草了。

King Shun led three men to dig the foundation pits.

The next morning, numerous carts arrived at the mountain, delivering bricks, tiles, and lumber. By the third morning, the house frame stood erect. Some workers laid the roof above, while others-built walls beside it. Still others filled in the foundation.

When the three men returned that evening, they were astonished to find the villa completed. The construction crew had already begun leveling the grounds and planting flowers and grass.

男嬰站在廚房的門口向裡面看。博士喊他：“別進去！等女嬰做完竣工驗收後，再進去！”

女嬰來了，炫耀地說：“我展示新研究出來的三指驗收法給你們看。”

三個男人不怕危險了，要看看女嬰是怎麼驗收房子的。女嬰用一根手指推了一下屋裡的柱子，然後說：“挺結實！”她又來到窗邊，用兩根手指推了一下窗戶，說：“還行！我們再到外面看看！”她領着三個男人到了屋外，用三根指頭推了一下山牆，然後說：“沒問題！你們可以放心地入住！”

Hero stood at the kitchen doorway peering inside. Doctor called out to him, “Don't go in! Wait until Heroine finishes her final inspection before entering!”

Heroine arrived, boasting, “I'll show you my newly developed three-finger inspection method.”

The three men, no longer afraid of danger, wanted to see how Heroine inspects the house. She pushed a pillar inside with one finger and declared, “Pretty sturdy!” Moving to the window, she gave it a nudge with two fingers and said, “Not bad! Let's check outside now!” Leading the men outside, she prodded the gable wall with three fingers and announced, “All clear! You can move in with confidence!”

三個男人誰也沒琢磨明白，一致同意：“還是等娥黃回來後，問問再說！”

娥黃回來後，大禹問她：“這房子的木料不像是能禁得住颱風啊？”

娥黃回答：“這房子是給我們傭人住的！新郎新娘住後山的洞房，那裡能禁得住颱風！”

None of the three men could figure it out, so they unanimously agreed: “Let's wait until Beauty Yellow returns and ask her about it!”

After Beauty Yellow returned, Big Yu asked her, “The wood used for this house doesn't seem sturdy enough to withstand a typhoon, does it?”

Beauty Yellow replied, “This house is for our servants! The bride and groom will stay in the honeymoon chamber in the back mountain cave—that place can withstand a typhoon!”

6. 東海海嘯 East Sea Seaquake

幾天后，這幾個人都要在船上過夜，說：“那海上保安的士兵都住在船上很多天了，我們為什麼不能住在船上！”女嬰勉強地同意了。

A few days later, when these people were about to spend the night on the ship, they said, “Those Coast Guard soldiers have been living on the ship for days—why can't we stay on board too?” Heroine reluctantly agreed.

後半夜，忽然海上起風了。傳說女嬰忽然覺得，“中華民族的眾神已經花費了七十多年的時間造人，到此才造出了黃帝大禹和嫘祖。如果他們倆讓一場大水給沖走了，連個龍種也沒留下，那就全白費了。”女嬰敲響了警鐘，宣布：“海嘯要來了，全體人員立刻撤回到岸上的營地！”

In the latter half of the night, a sudden wind arose at sea. Legend says it that Heroine suddenly realized, "Chinese gods and goddesses have spent over seventy years creating humans, and only now have they created the Yellow Creator Big Yu, and Lei Ancestor. If they two are swept away by a great flood, leaving not even a dragon seed, then all their efforts will have been in vain." Heroine rang the alarm bell and announced, "A seaquake is coming! Everyone must immediately evacuate to the camp on shore!"

人們起床後出來看，認為只是正常的海風。女嬰拿出弓箭，命令道：“全體人員跳海！誰不跳我射他！”

娥黃一看，女嬰是認真的，趕忙說：“別射！我帶頭跳海！”其它的人也跟着娥黃跳海了。

When people got up and went out to look, they thought it was just a normal sea breeze. Heroine took out a bow and arrows and commanded, "Everyone jump into the sea! I'll shoot anyone who doesn't!"

When Beauty Yellow saw that Heroine was serious, she quickly said, "Don't shoot! I'll lead the way and jump into the sea!" The others followed her and jumped into the sea.

眾人上岸後各自回到自己的馬車換衣服。舜王在馬車裡不停地哭。娥黃來告訴大禹：“今天早晨舜王收到了家書，是牛郎在海南寫來的，她看了信後就哭個不停。堯皇她們政治局的人認為那是家書，屬於個人隱私，我們沒權利看。我們建議您，大禹，如果她給你看，你就看。如果她不說，你不要問。這是堯皇她們給您的建議。那封信，等我們回到武漢，可以在中華法典的資料館裡看到。你現在去看她吧。”

After everyone disembarked, they returned to their respective carriages to change clothes. King Shun wept incessantly inside her carriage. Beauty Yellow came to tell Big Yu, “This morning King Shun received a letter from her family, written by Cowboy in Hainan. She cried incessantly after reading it. The people in the Politburo under White-king Yao believe it's a family letter, a matter of personal privacy, and we have no right to see it. We suggest, Big Yu, that if she lets you see it, then you should. If she doesn't say anything, don't ask. This is White-king Yao's advice to you. That letter can be found in the archives of Chinese Codex when we return to Wuhan. Go see her now.”

大禹去和舜王單獨會面。一會兒後大禹出來了。舜王繼續在她的馬車裡哭。

傳說這天，地方政府的官員，包括虞姬和她的丈夫，會來看望舜王和大禹。大禹害羞，不能單獨接見地方官員。如果女嬰或娥黃帶着大禹，那大禹可以見地方官員。但是地方官員們是來看望金童（即大禹，伏羲，佛，亞當）和玉女（即舜王，女媧，夏娃）的。

Big Yu went to meet with King Shun alone. A while later, Big Yu emerged. King Shun continued to weep in her carriage.

Legend says it that on this day, local government officials, including Muse and her husband, would come to visit King Shun and Big Yu. Big Yu was shy and could not meet with the officials alone. If Heroine or Beauty Yellow accompanied Big Yu, then Big Yu could meet with the officials. However, the officials were there to visit the Golden Boy (i.e., Big Yu, Fuxi, Buddha, Adam) and the Jade Girl (i.e., King Shun, Nuwa, Eve).

會見地方官員的時間到了，舜王自己從馬車裡出來了。她和大禹一同接見了地方官員。但是人們發現舜王病了，有抑鬱的症狀，總是拿東忘西的（注6）。

他們就立刻啟程返回武漢了。

注6，舜王心理疾病的程度屬於嚴重。編者我曾經患過精神病；我認為在前後文已經寫得很清楚了。

The time for meeting local officials arrived, and king Shun stepped out of the carriage herself. She received the officials alongside Big Yu. However, people noticed that King Shun was ill, exhibiting symptoms of depression and constantly misplacing affairs (Note 6).

They immediately set off on their return journey to Wuhan.

Note 6: The severity of King Shun's mental illness was significant. As the editor, I have personally suffered from mental illness; I believe this has been made abundantly clear in the preceding and following context.
