春秋时期,晋景公有一次得了重病,听说秦国有一个医术很高明的医生,便专程派人去请来。
One night he dreamed that the disease turned into two little kids talking beside him.
有一晚,晋景公恍惚中做了个梦。梦见了两个小孩,正悄悄地在他身旁说话。
One said, ;I’m afraid the doctor will hurt us.”
一个说:;那个高明的医生马上就要来了,我看我们这回难逃了,我们躲到什么地方去呢?”
The other said, ;Do not worry. We can hide above ‘huang’ and below ‘gao’. Then the doctor will be able to do nothing to us.”
另一个小孩说道:;这没什么可怕的,我们躲到肓的上面,膏的下面,无论他怎样用药,都奈何我们不得。”
The next day, having examined the king, the doctor said, ‘Your disease is incurable, I am afraid, Your Majesty. It’ above huang and below gao, where no medicine can reach.’
翌日,秦国的名医到了,立刻被请进了晋景公的卧室替晋景公治病。诊断后,那医生对晋景公说:;这病已没办法治了。疾病在肓之上,膏之下,用灸法攻治不行,扎针又达不到,吃汤药,其效力也达不到。这病是实在没法子治了。”
The idiom indicates a hopeless condition.
