逐句解 Line by line
師徒們怯怯驚驚,正行之時,只聽得呼呼一陣風起。
师徒们怯怯惊惊,正行之时,只听得呼呼一阵风起。
Master and disciples went nervously along, and just as they were walking they heard a wind get up with a rushing sound.
怯怯驚驚 doubles two words for fear into a four-character block — timid-timid, startled-startled — which slows the walking down. 呼呼 is the sound of the wind itself. 得 after 聽 is dé, the full reading, as with remembering earlier.
三藏害怕道:「風起了。」
三藏害怕道:「风起了。」
Tripitaka said in fear, "The wind is getting up."
He states the obvious, and it is the third time in this chapter that his flat obvious statement turns out to be the correct reading of the situation.
The calm from the sermon lasts one poem. The party is nervous again before anything has happened, and the thing that unsettles them is weather.
Tripitaka's line is four characters long and contains no interpretation at all. He has learned, in the space of a page, to report rather than argue.
