Speaker A

My name is Zh

Speaker A

My name is Guan Yu, courtesy name Yunchang 某姓关名羽「字云长」 I'm from Xieliang County, Hedong 河东解良人 My name is Liu Bei 在下刘备 courtesy name Xuande 刘玄德 Cheers 请 Let's toast to our new friendship 为你我三人萍水相逢一见如故 Cheers 请 Cheers 请

Speaker A

Sit down 坐坐坐坐 Sit down 坐坐坐 You are not ordinary people 我观二位皆非常人 Now that the Yellow Turbans 目下黄巾猖獗 are causing chaos 天下大乱 With a powerless court 朝廷无力 warlords are rising 群雄并起 I wonder if you have any plans in mind 不知二位壮士有何打算

Speaker A

Back in my hometown Xieliang 关某在老家解良 I killed a ruffian because he infuriated me 因看不惯豪强欺压乡里百姓 by bullying the locals 一怒之下杀了那厮 I've been on the run ever since 从此亡命江湖 It's been five to six years 至今已有五六年了 To think I've mastered martial arts 想我关某空有一身本领

Speaker A

just to become a wanderer 却只能落得天涯漂泊 unable to serve my kingdom 报国无门 So what if you killed a man? 杀人怎的 I wish I can 俺老张恨不得 kill all the evil people in the world 杀尽天下恶人恶鬼 I saw the recruitment notice at the city gate today 今日在城门口见那募兵告示

Speaker A

I intend to join the army 关某有意报告从军 and fight on the battlefield 一刀一枪效命疆场 Even if I get killed 即便马革裹尸 at least I've served my kingdom 也不枉男儿七尺之躯 Well said 好 That's how a virtuous man should act 大丈夫正当如此 I'll join the army with you 俺与你同去投军

Speaker A

Do you agree? 你说是也不是 Why don't you join the army, too? 你也同去投军如何 Why are you sighing? 何故作此长叹 Aren't we supposed to serve our kingdom? 难道说大丈夫不应为国效力 It's a troubled time 目下正值乱世 Heroes are born in troubled times 乱世则必出英雄 Heroes like you two 像你二位这样的英雄

Speaker A

can do a lot at this moment 正是用武之时 Why would you bend over to others? 何必非要屈身受制于他人 Don't you know that opportunities make heroes 岂不闻时势造英雄 but heroes must seize their opportunities, too? 英雄亦适时耶 People are joining the Yellow Turbans' rebellion 现今黄巾造反天下响应

Speaker A

The court tells the regions to enlist soldiers for defense 朝廷诏令各州郡自募乡勇守备 because they don't have troops to suppress the rebellion 是因力不能及兵匮将乏 and the eunuchs remain trouble 且有宦党掣肘之故 In that case 然而如此一来呢 the local tyrants are bound to rise and take over 必将造成地方豪强割据之势

Speaker A

The moment the Yellow Turbans are suppressed 黄巾平定之日 is the time when the warlords will rise 必是群雄崛起之时 We don't know who's going to 那时域中竟为谁人之天下 establish dominance when it happens 还尚未可尽知也 What you said was truly inspiring 听君一席话胜读十年书啊 You earned my admiration 佩服佩服

Speaker A

I'm just a butcher 俺是个杀猪的 I know nothing about the world 不知什么天下大事 Please tell me what to do 你说吧让俺怎么干 Why are you always so hesitant? 你这个人哪真不痛快 There is a man who's a descendant of the Han royal family 唉有一人原是汉室宗亲

Speaker A

His ancestor King Jing of Zhongshan 他的祖先中山靖王 was the seventh son of Emperor Jing of Han 乃是孝景帝第七子 Later, when his ancestor, a Ting Marquis of Zhuolu 后来因祖上逐鹿亭侯 had failed to pay the annual tribute of gold 没有按期交纳酎金 and was stripped of his noble rank 被削去爵位

Speaker A

A branch of his clan 其中一支族人 ended up in the Lousang Village 便流落到了这涿州县界 in Zhuozhou 定居于楼桑村 Lousang Village? I know that place 楼桑村俺知道 There is an ancient mulberry tree 那村中有一株千年古桑 that is tall and lush, and that's how the village got its name 树高冠大楼桑村即由此而得名

Speaker A

I also heard that 俺还曾听人说 the family blessed by that tree will produce high officials 那古桑庇护人家必出贵人 That's right, I've heard that, too 是呀我也曾听说过这样的话 But when it comes to the 18th descendant 可是到了这第十八代玄孙身上 the family became broke 却落得家徒四壁一贫如洗 He's of royal blood 此人贵为帝胄

Speaker A

Did he attempt to revive the glory of his family? 怎不想光复祖业重振家风呢 At the age of 15, he traveled the world, looking for teachers and friends 他十五岁游学四方寻师访友 He was determined to serve the kingdom and protect the people 常思上报国家下安黎民

Speaker A

But now he has turned 28 可如今他已二十有八 without any achievement 终是一事无成 In the end, he could only hold onto his ambitions 到头来只能空怀壮志 and drown his heart in tears 心中滴泪 Who is that man? 你说的那人是谁 I will tell you the truth 不敢相瞒

Speaker A

That person is me 正是在下 Why didn't you tell us earlier? 何不早说呢 So, you're a noble 原来贵人就在眼前 Brother, just say it 刘兄你说吧 What should I do? 让俺老张怎么干 Say it 说吧 I want to recruit brave men to take down the rebels 我想招募乡勇讨贼安民

Speaker A

But I don't have enough money 只恨财力不足 What's so hard about that? 这有何难 I'm loaded 俺颇有家资 I will join you in your great cause 愿与公同举大事 Do you mean it? 此话当真 I always mean what I said 某向来说一不二 Good 好 Cheers 请

Speaker A

A single strand does not make a thread 单丝不成线 A single tree does not make a forest 独木难成林哪 We're still few in numbers 这势单力薄 Please allow me to follow you 若蒙不弃某愿相随 Both of you have offered me help in times of distress 二位英雄真是雪中送炭

Speaker A

I'm very grateful 肝胆照人 Please receive my bow 请受刘备一拜 Why do you need to do that? 你这是为何 Brother, you don't have to do this 刘兄不必如此 For the greater cause 为图大事 I've wandered half of my life 我漂流半生 I struggled to find like-minded people 苦苦寻找志同道合之人

Speaker A

Today 直到今日 I finally find gold in the sand 淘尽黄沙始见真金天可怜见 The Heavens have shown mercy and led you to me 将二位英雄赐予刘备 I wish to become sworn brothers with you 备欲同你二人结拜为生死弟兄 What do you think? 不知二位意下如何 I think the same as well 俺早有此意

Speaker A

With our joint effort, we can turn dirt into gold 三人一条心黄土变成金 We will achieve success 有你带着俺 in your lead 大事定能成功啊 I'm only a martial artist 关某虽一介武夫 but I deeply value loyalty 也颇知忠义二字 A bird will choose a good tree to nest in 正所谓择木之禽得其良木

Speaker A

A vassal will choose a good king to follow 择主之臣得遇明主 You've fulfilled my lifelong wish 关某平生之愿足矣 From now on 从今往后 my life is yours 关某之命即是刘兄之命 I will support you with everything I have 关某之躯即为刘兄之躯 I will do as you say with no second thoughts 但凭驱使绝无二心
