38一会儿，就看叛军阵前站满了许多男女老少，哭声震天。随即叛军中一名将军纵马出阵，高声宣布了皇太叔旨令:对方官兵如投降，便可和家属团聚，升官三级，否则，所有家属一齐杀了。
38 After a while, I saw many men, women, old and young standing in front of the rebel army, crying loudly. Then a general of the rebel army jumped out of the battle and announced the order of Uncle Huang in a loud voice: if the officers and soldiers of the other side surrender, they can be reunited with their families and promoted to three levels. Otherwise, all the families will be killed together.
39叛军这一着果然奏效，耶律洪基的部队顿时出现了骚乱，哗啦啦一下子便有数万人奔到叛军阵中。耶律洪基见大势不好，连忙带领余下部队往西北方向退到苍茫山脚下。叛军随后跟到，把他们团团围住。
39 The rebel action really worked, and Yeluhongji’s troops immediately rioted, and tens of thousands of people rushed to the rebel formation. Seeing the general situation was not good, Yeluhongji quickly led the rest of the troops to the northwest and retreated to the foot of the vast mountains. The rebels followed and surrounded them.
40第二天清晨，皇太叔父子又来叫阵，萧峰乘他们正与耶律洪基争吵叫骂，悄悄把身子藏到马腹下，纵马向南院大王冲过去。在离他还有二百步远的地方，张弓拉箭，一箭射入南院大王的左胸。
In the morning of the next day, Uncle Huang and his son came to fight again. Xiao Feng took advantage of the fact that they were quarrelling with Yeluhongji, hid himself under the horse, and rushed to the king of the south courtyard. At a distance of two hundred paces from him, he drew an arrow with a bow and shot it into the left chest of the king of the south courtyard.
41趁叛军大乱，萧峰三跃两跳，落在皇太叔马侧，左手迅即抓住了他的后心，将他高高提起，叫道:“你要活就快叫众人放下兵刃!”众叛军看首领被擒，一时茫然不知所措。
41 While the rebels were in chaos, Xiao Feng jumped three times and fell on the side of Uncle Huang’s horse. His left hand immediately caught his back, lifted him up high and shouted, “If you want to live, tell everyone to put down their weapons!” The rebels were at a loss when they saw the leader was captured.
42皇太叔见大势已去，便叫叛军放下武器投降。萧峰又把皇太叔押上山来，耶律洪基见到萧峰，握着他的双手说:“兄弟，哥哥这江山以后和你共享之。”
Uncle Huang saw that the situation was over, so he told the rebels to lay down their weapons and surrender. Xiao Feng took Uncle Huang up the mountain again. Yelv Hongji saw Xiao Feng, held his hands and said, “Brother, I will share with you in the future.”
43耶律洪基封萧峰为楚王，官居南院大王。众人虚惊一场，见叛乱平定，个个喜气洋洋，于是耶律洪基便率领部队班师回朝。
Yelv Hongji made Xiao Feng the king of Chu, and the official residence was the king of the south courtyard. The crowd made a false alarm and saw that the rebellion was over, and everyone was elated. So Yeluhongji led his troops back to Korea.
44萧峰自从做了辽国大官，整天无所事事，阿紫也闷得慌，两人就结伴去打猎。路上，在一大群大宋难民中，他们发现了聚贤庄游驹的儿子游坦之。游坦之见到杀父仇人，分外眼红，用一个包着生石灰的小包暗算萧峰。
Since Xiao Feng became a senior official of the Liao State, he has nothing to do all day, and Ah Zi is also bored, so they go hunting together. On the way, among a large group of Song refugees, they found Youtanzhi, the son of Youju in Juxianzhuang. You Tanzhi was extremely jealous when he saw the enemy who killed his father. He used a small bag of quicklime to plot against Xiao Feng.
45游坦之哪是萧峰的对手，一下就被萧峰制服了。但萧峰不但没杀他，还放了他，游坦之在草丛中意外拾到了萧峰不慎遗失的那本易筋经。
You Tanzhi, who is Xiao Feng’s opponent, was overpowered by Xiao Feng. But Xiao Feng not only didn’t kill him, but also let him go. You Tanzhi accidentally picked up the Tendon Changing Classic that Xiao Feng accidentally lost in the grass.
46萧峰放了游坦之，阿紫很不高兴。她暗地里派契丹土兵把游坦之捉了回来，天天变着法子折磨他取乐。为了怕萧峰认出游坦之来，他还叫人特制了一个铁罩牢牢罩住游坦之的脑袋，并且叫他作“铁丑”。
46 Xiao Feng let go, and Ah Zi was very unhappy. She secretly sent the Khitan soldiers to capture you Tanzhi and tortured him for fun every day. In order to prevent Xiao Feng from recognizing Youtanzhi, he also asked someone to make a special iron shield to cover Youtanzhi’s head and call him “Iron Chou”.
47一天，阿紫把游坦之叫到屋里，要他把手伸进一个装有一条大蜈蚣的瓮中，等蜈蚣吸足了他的血后，又叫他把蜈蚣放入她的那个神木王鼎里。一会儿，木鼎的孔中便有一滴滴黑血滴了下来。
One day, Ah Zi called you Tanzhi into the room and asked him to put his hand into a jar containing a big centipede. After the centipede had absorbed his blood, she asked him to put the centipede into her divine wooden king tripod. After a while, black blood drops fell from the hole of the wooden tripod.
