白蛇傳的故事
There is a very famous traditional Chinese story that has a close connection to the Dragon Boat Festival. Once upon a time on E-Mei mountain there lived two snake spirits, White Snake and Green Snake. These snakes, being magical, turned themselves into beautiful maidens and set off on a journey to the West Lake of Hang Zhou.
另一個與端午節(jié)息息相關(guān)的中國傳統(tǒng)故事是“白蛇傳”。從前,在伊眉山上有兩只蛇精,白蛇與青蛇。這兩只蛇精運用法力將自己變成美麗的女子,并到杭州西湖游玩。
When they arrived at West Lake they met a man named Xu Xian. White Snake quickly fell in love with Xu Xian and they were soon married. A Buddhist monk, named Fa Hai, warned Xu Xian of his wife's deceptive appearance and suggested to him a plan.
當她們在西湖游玩時,遇到一位名叫許仙的男子,白蛇與許仙很快的相戀并且隨即結(jié)婚。當時一位名叫法海的和尚,曾經(jīng)警告許仙注意他妻子惑人的外表,并建議他一個揭開真相的計劃。
