　　The Tang Priest and his three disciples， Monkey （Wukong）， Pig and Friar Sand， were heading towards the Western Heaven. Gradually they began to feel hotter and hotter in the warm air. It was very strange， because it was autumn. Later they learnt that the Fiery Mountains were just ahead of them. The mountains had a circumference of 800 li， on which not a blade of grass could grow. A old man told them that it was not possible to cross the mountains without a special plantain fan which could only be borrowed from Princess Iron Fan. After having made arrangements for his master， Monkey left for the Plantain Cave to see Princess Iron Fan. The princess was the wife of the Bull Demon King and the Red Boy's mother. Some time ago， Red Boy had tried to eat the Tang Priest and Monkey had subdued him. Hence Princess Iron Fan hated Monkey and refused to lend the fan to him. Instead she blew Monkey right out of sight with a single wave of her plantain fan. Bodhisattva Lingji heard about this and gave Monkey a Wind-Fixing Pill. Monkey came to borrow the magic fan for the second time. With the Wind-Fixing Pill in his mouth， Monkey could not be moved no matter how hard the princess waved the fan. The princess hurried back to the cave and had the doors closed tightly. However， Monkey turned himself into an insect and got into the princess‘ belly when she was drinking tea. The princess could not stand the pain， so that she agreed to lend the fan to Monkey， but she actually gave him a false one. The third time Monkey came for the fan he decided to turn himself into the Bull Demon King. He got the fan. Upon hearing of this trickery， the Bull Demon King came hurriedly chasing after Monkey. They engaged in a fierce struggle. Soon Pig and Friar Sand came to Monkey's help and forced the Bull Demon King to show his true colors. With the plantain fan， Monkey put out the fire. The master and his three disciples continued their journey to the West to fetch scriptures.

譯文：唐僧師徒四人，一路風(fēng)塵仆仆朝西行去。走著走著，漸漸覺(jué)得熱氣襲人，難以忍受。此時(shí)正值秋天，大家感到很奇怪。一打聽(tīng)才知道前方有座火焰山，方圓八百里內(nèi)寸草不生。又從土地爺嘴里聽(tīng)說(shuō)，要想過(guò)山，只有向鐵扇公主借芭蕉扇扇滅火后才能通過(guò)。孫悟空把師父安排好，前往芭蕉洞找鐵扇公主。鐵扇公主是牛魔王的妻子，紅孩兒之母。因上次紅孩兒想吃唐僧肉與悟空結(jié)下了冤仇，鐵扇公主哪里肯借。悟空初次借扇，被鐵扇公主用芭蕉扇扇得無(wú)蹤無(wú)影。靈吉菩薩得知實(shí)情，給他一粒“定風(fēng)丹”再去借扇。悟空二次來(lái)借扇，公主又用扇扇他，悟空口含定風(fēng)丹，一動(dòng)不動(dòng)。公主急忙回洞，閉門(mén)不出。悟空變作一只小蟲(chóng)，乘公主喝茶之際進(jìn)入鐵扇公主腹中。公主腹疼難忍，答應(yīng)借扇，但給的是一把假扇。第三次，悟空變成牛魔王模樣，騙得真扇。牛魔王到家得知真相后急忙追趕，悟空與牛魔王大戰(zhàn)。八戒、沙僧、哪吒及天神上前助戰(zhàn)，最后把牛魔王打得現(xiàn)出原形。悟空用芭蕉扇扇滅山火，師徒四人繼續(xù)西行取經(jīng)。
