"If 【those evil spirits】 send a letter to Vulture Mountain the five hundred arhats all come out to meet 【them】," the old man said. "If 【they】 send a note to the Heavenly Palace the Ten Bright Shiners all turn out to pay their respects. The dragons of the Four Oceans were 【their】 friends and 【they】 often meet the immortals of the Eight Caves. The Ten Kings of the Underworld call 【them】 brothers; the local gods and city gods are good friends of 【theirs】."

“如果【那些恶灵】写信到鹫山，五百罗汉都出来迎接【他们】，”老人说。“如果【他们】送信给天宫，十个光明人都会出来表示他们的敬意。四大洋的龙是【他们的】朋友，【他们】经常与八洞的神仙们会面。冥界的十位国王称【他们】为兄弟。地方神和城隍是【他们的】好朋友。”
