前几期文章猴爵有提到，河童的传说遍布了整个日本
In the previous issues, I mentioned that the legend of Kappa spread all over Japan
日本文化研究中心的数据库中收录的河童传说都多达970余篇
There are more than 970 Kappa legends in the database of the Japan Cultural Research Center
日本学者称它们为河童一族，并按“都道府县”将他们进行了归类
Japanese scholars call them the Kappa clan and classify them according to the " Metropolis 、Path、Prefecture 、District "
猴爵当然不可能把这九百多篇的传说全部都给看完
Of course, I courldn’t read all the more than 900 stories
也没这个能力将它们全都收集齐全，至少现在没有
I don’t have the ability to collect them all, at least not now
不过如果以后有能力了，我也打算带大家到日本各地去感受下当地的妖怪文化
But if I can do it in the future, I plan to take everyone to Japan to experience the local monster culture
言归正传，猴爵挑选了25个非常具有代表性的河童一族成员
After all, I selected 25 very representative members of the Kappa clan
从河童的发源地九州一路北上至北海道
From Kyushu, the birthplace of Kappa, head north to Hokkaido
通过它们的故事，我希望可以让屏幕前的你对河童这一妖怪能有一个大体的认知
Through their stories, I hope you can have a general understanding of the monster Kappa in front of the screen
对了，我再补充一点
By the way, let me add one more
河童的分布需要基于它们的起源之一——“渡来说”来展开
The distribution of Kappa needs to be based on one of their origins-"Crossover Tradition"
这样的好处是故事连贯性好
The advantage of this is that the story is coherent
争议相比“幻化说”要少一些，并且易于被人们接受
Controversy is less than "Transfiguration Tradition ", and it is easy to be accepted by people
九千坊くぜんぼう，九州熊本县
Kyusenbo，Kumamoto County, Kyushu
九千坊这个名字，相信读过第六期文章的朋友应该不会对它感到陌生
The name Kyusenbo, I believe friends who have readed the sixth issue should not be unfamiliar with it
没看过的同学建议赶快去补补课，以免跟不上其他同学哦
Students who haven’t seen it are recommended to make up the class as soon as possible so as not to keep up with other students
好，我们先来复习一下九千坊这个家伙
OK, let ’s review the guy Kyusenbo
河童在1500—1600这100年间，大举从中国黄河迁徙到日本九州
Kappa migrated from the Yellow River in China to Kyushu, Japan in the past 100 years from 1500 to 1600
通过不断繁衍生息最后定居于熊本县的球磨川一带
Settled in the Kumamoto area of Kumamoto Prefecture through continuous growth
至此河童的数量已经达到九千多只
So far the number of Kappa has reached more than 9,000
它们当中有一个能文能武、智勇双全的大佬
Among them, there is a boss who is capable of writing、fighting，wise and brave
其它自愧不如的河童都很崇拜它，很听它的话
The other shameless Kappa worshipped it and listened to it
这家伙这么牛掰，在当地肯定很出名喽
This guy is so good, it must be very famous locally
于是人们给它取了个名字叫九千坊
So people named it Kyusenbo
中国有句老话，丑人多作怪，人红是非多
There is an old saying in China, no zuo no die
估计这家伙在中国的时候没听过这句话
It is estimated that this guy had never heard this sentence while in China
毕竟也是妖不是人，人的道理放在它身上肯定是行不通的
After all, it is also a Yokai, not a human，putting the truth of humans on it certainly won't work
于是呢，它就开始飘了
So, it had a incorrect self-assessment
一开始它带着族类倒也不是十恶不赦、无恶不作
At the beginning, it was not evil or forgiving with its race
最多就干点偷人牛马，恶搞路人的事情
At most, just steal livestock, spoof passersby
可能是长期人们对它们睁一只眼闭一只眼的缘故吧
Maybe it's because people don’t mention to them for a long time
九千坊带着一些品行比较坏的河童开始伤人甚至害人了
Kyusenbo started to hurt or even hurt some Kappa with bad behavior
它们会把人拖进深水溺死，还会吃人内脏吸人精魄
They will drag people into the deep water and drown, and they will eat the internal organs and attract the soul
甚至还会把年轻漂亮的处女绑架以供族类繁衍后代
And even kidnap young and beautiful virgins for the offspring of the race
这可让熊本城主加藤清正怒不可遏，于是下令清缴河童一族。
This can make the Kumamoto castle owner Kato Kiyoshi irritated, So he ordered to pay off the Kappa clan
他请来众多高僧和山猿
he invited many monks and mountain apes
一顿骚操作把河童一族打得支离破碎，连九千坊都被打得跪地求饶
A saucy operation broke the Kappa clan apart, and even Kyusenbo were beaten down and begged for mercy
好在有高僧相劝，河童一族才免于被灭族的下场
Fortunately, the monks persuaded them to save the Kappa clan from being wiped out
加藤清正将剩余的河童赶出了熊本县
Kato Kiyoshi drove the remaining Kappa out of Kumamoto Prefecture
河童一族也就此开始了它们的流离生活，不断迁移到了日本各地
The Kappa clan began their displaced life and moved to all parts of Japan
