撒起酒風 Drunk And Turning Cartwheels
原來這大聖吃不多酒，接了他七八鍾吃了，在肚裡撒起酒風來：不住的支架子、跌四平、踢飛腳、抓住肝花打鞦韆、豎蜻蜓、翻根頭、亂舞。那怪物疼痛難禁，倒在地下。原来这大圣吃不多酒，接了他七八钟吃了，在肚里撒起酒风来：不住的支架子、跌四平、踢飞脚、抓住肝花打秋千、竖蜻蜓、翻根头、乱舞。那怪物疼痛难禁，倒在地下。
逐句解 Line by line
The fact is the Great Sage could not hold much wine, and having caught and drunk seven or eight cups of the demon's he began to let the drink out of him inside the belly — endlessly striking poses, dropping into the flat-four stance, throwing flying kicks, seizing the liver and swinging on it, standing on his hands, turning somersaults, dancing about at random.
Seven named moves in a row, and they are not invented: 跌四平, 踢飛腳 and 豎蜻蜓 — the flat-four stance, the flying kick, the standing dragonfly, which is a handstand — are all real positions from the martial and operatic repertoire. 打鞦韆 is playing on a swing. He is performing a whole routine, on a liver.
The creature could not bear the pain and fell to the ground.
禁 is jīn, to endure — the fourth and last site of that reading in the chapter, and the same 難禁 that the fire dragons in the bottle earned. 倒 is dǎo, the falling band.
The chapter's last action is a drunk monkey doing gymnastics inside a lion. Every elaborate thing that has been tried in six thousand characters — the disguise, the cosmological bottle, the poems, the wager, the sabre, the salt water, the drugged wine — is finished off by somebody who cannot hold his drink.
難禁 is the closing echo and it is exact. The fire dragons coiling round Wukong in the bottle were 著實難禁, truly past bearing; now the demon cannot bear what is coiling round inside him. The chapter opened with Wukong trapped in a body that was cooking him, and it ends with him as the thing inside somebody else's.
