Now Yü Lung San T'ai-tzu, son of Ao Jun, Dragonking of the Western Sea, having burnt a precious pearl on the roof of his father's palace, was denounced to Yü Huang, who had him beaten with three hundred blows and suspended in the air. He was awaiting death when Kuan Yin passed on her way to China.
It was a jemindar of the 129th who spoke. "Yes, a German sahib called to me in Hindustani, 'Ham dost hein Hamari pas ao Ham tum Ko Nahn Marenge." Which being translated is, "We are friends, come to us, we won't kill you." "And you, Mula Sing, what think you of this war?" The Woordie-Major replied: "Sahib, never was there a war like this war, since the world began.
"Ah, you are a blusterer," jeered the boy; "if you dare to touch me I will skin you alive, you and your mud-eels!" "You make me choke with rage," rejoined Ao Ping, at the same time thrusting again with his trident. Furious at this renewed attack, No-cha spread his silk trousers in the air, and thousands of balls of fire flew out of them, felling Lung Wang's son.
Eventually they won over Ao Ch'in, and the armies of the deep gathered for the fray. The Immortals called to their aid the other Taoist Immortals and Heroes, and thus two formidable armies found themselves face to face. Several attempts were made by other divinities to avert the conflict, but without success. The battle was a strenuous one.
He did, however, mark the various phases of the sky, and in his musical tongue named them with particularity. The firmament is te ao, te rai, and the atmosphere te reva, and when peaceful, raiatea. This is the name of one of the most beautiful islands of this Society group, "Raiatea la Sacrée," it is called, "Raiatea the Blessed," and its own serenity is betokened in its name.
The sun, storms, caterpillars, and all destructive insects were said to be his au ao, or servants, who were commissioned to go forth and eat up the plantations of those with whom he was displeased. In times of plenty as well as of scarcity the people were in the habit of assembling with offerings of food, and poured out drink-offerings of 'ava to Le Sa, to propitiate his favour.
Till late at night we were kept awake by the crazy Widads: Ao Samattar had proposed the casuistical question, "Is it lawful to pray upon a mountain when a plain is at hand?" Some took the pro, others the contra, and the wordy battle raged with uncommon fury.
"Rascal! do you not know that your victim was a deputy of the King of Heaven? How dare you kill him, and then boast of your crime?" So saying, Ao Ping thrust at the boy with his trident. No-cha, by a brisk move, evaded the thrust. "Who are you?" he asked in turn. "I am Ao Ping, the third son of Lung Wang."
No-cha put his foot on Ao Ping's head and struck it with his magic bracelet, whereupon he appeared in his true form of a dragon. "I am now going to pull out your sinews," he said, "in order to make a belt for my father to use to bind on his cuirass." No-cha was as good as his word, and Ao Ping's escort ran and informed Lung Wang of the fate of his son.
Although they are flowers, although they are songs, how shall I grieve that your efforts have been in vain, that you have gone forth from the world.
