51韦小宝命将捉来之人拷打，有人吃不住，招了出来，道:司徒伯雷欲要复明，不肯拥戴吴三桂做皇帝，自己当什么“开国将军”，巴朗星便乘夜将他杀了，带首级率同党逃下山。王屋派众弟子追赶，与围山官兵相遇。
Wei Xiaobao ordered the captured man to be tortured, and some people could not bear it. He called out and said, “If Stuart wanted to restore the Ming Dynasty, he would not support Wu Sangui as the emperor, and he would not be the” founding general “. Balang Xing killed him at night, and led the leader to flee down the mountain with his party. The Royal House sent its disciples to catch up and meet the officers and soldiers around the mountain.
52次日一早，韦小宝率天地会群雄及一队骁骑营官兵上山，只见十余名王屋派弟子手执兵刃，拦在当路。徐天川单身上前，双手呈上一张素贴，意为天地会众人到司徒伯雷灵前致祭。便叫他们稍待，一人飞身上山通报。
In the morning of the next day, Wei Xiaobao led the heroes of the Heaven and Earth Society and a group of officers and soldiers of the cavalry battalion up the mountain, and saw more than ten disciples of the Royal House with weapons in hand, blocking the way. Xu Tianchuan came forward alone and presented a vegetarian sticker with both hands, which meant that the Tiandi Society would all come to the funeral of Situ Bolei. He told them to wait for a moment, and one of them flew up the mountain to report.
53过不多时，山上走下数十人来，当先一人正是司徒鹤。他是司徒伯雷之子，王屋派现由他做主。韦小宝一双眼骨溜溜只是瞧他身后，只见一个姑娘身形苗条，头戴白花，正是曾柔，不由得心中一阵欢喜。
After a while, dozens of people came down from the mountain, and the first one was Situ Crane. He is the son of Situ Bolei, and now he is in charge of the royal house. Wei Xiaobao just looked behind him with his bony eyes. He saw a slim girl with white flowers on her head. It was Zeng Rou, and he could not help feeling a burst of joy.
54司徒鹤手按腰间剑柄，怒目而视韦小宝。钱老本道:“请问杀死司徒老英雄的凶手是谁?”司徒鹤咬牙切齿道:“是吴三桂的卫士巴朗星。”钱老本回头叫道:“带上来!”两名亲兵随即押上一人，正是巴朗星。
Situ Crane pressed the sword handle at his waist and glared at Wei Xiaobao. Qian Laoben said, “Who is the murderer who killed the old hero of Situ?” Situ Crane gritted his teeth and said, “It’s Barron Star, the guard of Wu Sangui.
55王屋弟子各人挺起刀刃，要将巴朗星乱剑分身。司徒鹤双手一拦，阻挡道:“阁下如何处置此恶人?”钱老本道:“敝下对司徒老英雄素来敬仰，欲将恶人在老英雄灵前千刀万剐，以慰老英雄在天之灵。”
55 The disciples of the royal house raised their swords to separate their swords. Situ Crane stopped him with both hands and said, “How do you deal with this villain?” Qian Laoben said, “I have always admired Situ Lao’s hero. I want to cut the villain in front of the old hero’s spirit to comfort the old hero’s spirit in heaven.”
56巴朗星破口大骂。钱老本右手一掌击在他后心，左足飞起，踢在他臀上，巴朗星向前跌在司徒鹤身边。钱老本又令把巴朗星百余名部属带过来道:“敝下的小小礼物，全凭阁下处置。”
56 Barron burst into abuse. Qian Laoben slapped him in the back with his right hand, and his left foot flew up and kicked him on the hip. Barron Star fell forward beside Situhe. Qian Laoben ordered more than 100 subordinates of Barron Star to come and say, “My little gift is at your disposal.”
57到此地步，司徒鹤更无怀疑，向着韦小宝一躬到地:“尊驾盛情，敝派感激莫名。”韦小宝快步上前还礼:“司徒老英雄的头，便在这棺木之中，请抬上山去，缝在身躯上安葬吧。”
At this point, Situ Crane bowed to the ground without any doubt, and said to Wei Xiaobao, “I am grateful for your hospitality.” Wei Xiaobao quickly stepped forward and saluted: “The head of Situ Old Hero is in the coffin. Please carry it up the hill and sew it on the body for burial.”
58司徒鹤叫过四名师弟，抬了棺木上山，又请韦小宝上山。韦小宝走到曾柔身边，低身道:“曾姑娘，你好!”曾柔一双眼哭得红红的，更显得楚楚可怜。
Situ Crane called four younger martial brothers, carried the coffin up the mountain, and invited Wei Xiaobao to go up the mountain. Wei Xiaobao walked up to Zeng Rou and said, “Hello, Miss Zeng!” Zeng Rou’s eyes were red with tears, which made her look more pitiful.
59司徒伯雷的灵位设在王田洞中。韦小宝率领天地会众在灵前上香致祭，跪下磕头。韦小宝想:“要讨好曾姑娘，须得越悲哀越好。”当下放声大哭，反是王屋派弟子不住劝慰。
The throne of Situ Bailey was located in the Wangtian Cave. Wei Xiaobao led the congregation of heaven and earth to burn incense before the spirit and kowtow. Wei Xiaobao thought, “To please Miss Zeng, the more sad you must be, the better.” Now he burst into tears, but the disciples of the Wangwu Sect couldn’t help comforting.
60司徒鹤一刀割下巴朗星首级，放在供桌上。王屋派弟子齐向韦小宝拜谢大恩。
60 Situhe cut off the head of Barron with a knife and put it on the table. The disciples of the royal house sent Qi to pay tribute to Wei Xiaobao.
