Ivan does not think clearly, compared with this, Sirius, Hagrid and Madam Maxime there actually progress smooth of. 艾文想不明白,和他这面相比,小天狼星海格马克西姆夫人那里倒是进展的很顺利。 The giant and nearby wizard(s) have the contact of small scale, they inquired that giant tribe present is one is called the Cacus giant, he was the son of previous generation giant leader. 巨人和附近的巫师有小规模的接触,他们打听到,巨人部落现在的古戈是一个叫做卡库斯的巨人,他是上一代巨人首领的儿子。 Perhaps is relations that because the blood relationship inherits, his rule is unstable, under is called the Golgomath giant to want strong many compared with him. 也许是因为血缘继承的关系,他的统治并不稳固,手下有一个叫做高高马的巨人比他要强壮的多。 Many giants think that Golgomath is more competent than Cacus, has the qualifications to hold the post of giant. 很多巨人都认为高高马卡库斯更有实力,也更有资格担任巨人古戈。 These also possibly are the rumors, has not been confirmed. 这些也可能是谣言,并没有得到证实。 In the wizard(s) eye, the giant mostly simpleminded, but they have the considerable complex social structure, not like imagination. 巫师眼里面,巨人大多头脑简单,但他们也有着相当复杂的社会结构,并不像想象中那样。 Sirius, Hagrid and Maxime after discussion, decide to contact with Cacus finally first, but also gives Golgomath to prepare a similarly expensive gift, provides against contingencies...... 小天狼星海格马克西姆在讨论后,最终还是决定先和卡库斯联系,但同时也给高高马准备一份同样贵重的礼物,以防万一...... When Ivan goes back, their three discussed the preparation. 等到艾文回去时,他们三个已经商量完毕准备出发。 Soon before, has bought the dead goat Hagrid to the town, this is food that the giants most like, he and Sirius lifted up to think of the gunnysack of goat, Madam Maxime have arranged the magic in the camp, then, their four like this. 不久之前,海格到镇上买了很多死山羊,这是巨人们最喜爱的食物,他和小天狼星扛起装着山羊的麻袋,马克西姆夫人在营地里面布置了魔法,然后,他们四个就这样出发了。 „Did you find the positions of these giants?” Ivan asked that walking of using energy on rugged mountain road. “你们找到那些巨人的位置了吗?”艾文问道,费劲的走在崎岖的山路上。 He must put out the complete strength, can follow Hagrid and Madam Maxime footsteps. 他必须拿出全部力气,才能跟上海格马克西姆夫人的脚步。 Had found, in mountain ridge that I at night the day before yesterday saw, they in that the small bonfire, the giant shadow, are moving on Xiangshan!” Hagrid said that has gesticulated with the spatial that hand, these giant probably 20 feet, big possibly has 25 feet, compared with my tall Duo. I have not alarmed them, after confirming that is their territory, directly came back!” “找到了,就在山脊那面,我前天晚上看到的,他们在那点着小小的篝火,巨大的影子,就像山在移动!”海格说,用空的那只手比划了一下,“那些巨人大概有20英尺,大的可能有25英尺,比我高多了。我没有惊动他们,在确认那是他们的领地后,就直接回来了!” How many people do they have?” “他们有多少人?” I want least to have 100, compared with the heyday, this were not in fact many!” Hagrid said sadly that has jolted the gunnysack on shoulder, you know that before had many giants, the entire world at least 100 tribes, withered away gradually. wizard(s) have killed, but the majority kills one another. They die now quickly, the giants are not suitable such to press together lives. Dumbledore said that is our mistake, was wizard(s) rushed to place far away them, they did not have the means that to survive can only treat in together......” “我想最少得有100个,和全盛时期相比,这实际上已经不多了!”海格悲伤地说,颠了颠肩上的麻袋,“你知道的,以前有好多巨人,全世界起码有100个部落,渐渐消亡了。巫师们杀了一些,但大部分是自相残杀。他们现在死得更快了,巨人们不适合那样挤在一起生活。邓布利多说是我们的错,是巫师把他们赶到了老远的地方,他们没有办法,为了生存只能待在一块......” The giant strength is strong, but belongs to eliminate the backward species. 巨人力量强大,但却属于淘汰落后的物种。 They are reducing at certain speed, said that which day will not permit to future, truly will exterminate from Earth. 他们正在以一定速度减少,说不准到未来哪一天,就会真正从地球上灭绝。 When the time comes, wizard(s) can only see this living thing from the book, looks that the Troll appearance imagines the giant. 到时候,巫师们只能从书里面看到这种生物,看着巨怪的样子去想象巨人。 Like this that they make now, speculates their ancestor Cyclops by the appearance of giant...... 就像他们现在做的这样,以巨人的样子去推测他们的祖先独眼巨人...... According to the present speed, we can rush to the giant territory before today's dinner!” Sirius said that for safety, we should better not to go in the night secretly, when will enter the giant territory tomorrow morning again.” “按照现在的速度,我们在今天晚饭前可以赶到巨人领地!”小天狼星说,“为了安全起见,我们最好不要在夜里偷偷地进去,等到明天早上再进入巨人领地。” We had discussed before, when the time comes, I and Olympe take the lead, take am giving the giant Cacus gift.” Hagrid then said that Sirius and Ivan, your two are responsible for giving other Golgomath and giants other gifts.” “我们之前商量过了,到时候,我和奥里姆走在前面,拿着给巨人古戈卡库斯的礼物。”海格接着说道,“小天狼星艾文,你们两个负责把其他礼物送给高高马和其他巨人。” But we do not know that which is Golgomath.” Ivan said. “可我们不知道哪个才是高高马。”艾文说。 You know that he is in the tribe strongest that you will definitely not make a mistake.” Madam Maxime said that this is a protracted war, we must prepare for at heart, could wait to be very long in the giant territory, can persuade them.” “你会知道的,他是部落里面最强壮的那个,你肯定不会弄错。”马克西姆夫人说,“这是一场持久战,我们必须要做好心里准备,可能要在巨人领地待上很久,才能劝服他们。” Yes, with the giant lives together, this truly is the unforgettable experience!” Sirius said that little has wizard(s) to have this experience, Ivan, after you go back, can write about in the newspaper this experience, will cause the stir absolutely.” “是啊,和巨人生活在一起,这确实是难忘的经历!”小天狼星说,“很少有巫师会有这种经历,艾文,你回去后可以把这段经历写到报纸上,绝对会引起轰动。” This is not the great idea, Dumbledore not to hope that makes others know we are contacting with the giant.”, Madam Maxime said discretely that she looks at Sirius discontentedly, we must keep the secret, you and Rubeus this too was all the way negligent, the performance of Ivan in this aspect compared with you must.” “这可不是什么好主意,邓布利多不希望让别人知道我们在和巨人联系。”,马克西姆夫人谨慎地说,她不满地看着小天狼星,“我们必须要保守秘密,你和鲁伯这一路上实在太大意了,艾文在这方面的表现都比你们要强很多。” I know that I casually said......” “我知道,我只是随便说说......” Said that does not know what appearance the domestic present is?!” Ivan changes the topic hurriedly, had been so long, I estimated that Fudge and the Ministry of Magic definitely will take some measure to limit Dumbledore and Hogwarts......” “说起来,不知道国内现在是什么样子?!”艾文急忙岔开话题,“过了这么久,我估计福吉魔法部肯定会采取某种措施限制邓布利多霍格沃茨......” He is a full idiot.” Sirius disdain said. “他就是一个十足的蠢货。”小天狼星不屑地说。 The following atmosphere is a little sad, several people have not spoken, has been hurrying along earnestly. 接下来的气氛有点沉闷,几个人都没有说话,一直在埋头赶路。 To afterward, Ivan tired could not speak. 到后来,艾文累的说不出话来。 His not suitable this mountainous region tramp, even if usually persists in exercising, but takes a day of mountain road continuously is also tired. 他不适合这种山地徒步旅行,即便平时坚持锻炼,但连续走一天的山路也是累得不行。 After crossing cliff and mountain ridge, they now in the Mount Etna south side. 在越过悬崖和山脊之后,他们现在在埃特纳火山的南侧。 This is a covert mountain valley, only has a track of going round and round, is away from the summit the position to be very near. 这是一个隐蔽的山谷,只有一条绕来绕去的小道通向其中,距离山顶的位置很近。 Although in the summer, but on the summit was actually being covered by the white snow, the temperature is getting more and more low. 尽管还是夏天,但山顶上却被白雪覆盖着,温度越来越低。 The thick cloud layer and mist scatter around Ivan, merges into one organic whole with the snow of ground, is white one piece, the visibility is very everywhere low. 厚厚的云层和雾气在艾文周围飘散,和地上的雪融为一体,到处都是白茫茫的一片,能见度很低。 Before Dumbledore, has come to here, he initially helped the giants flee one of the Britain wizard(s). 邓布利多之前来过这里,他正是当初帮助巨人们逃离英国的巫师之一。 If no his direction, wanted to find this mountain valley unusual difficulty, possibly needed to spend for several months. 如果没有他的指引,想要找到这个山谷非常的困难,可能需要花费几个月的时间。 The weather is gradually gloomy, giant a rock after climbing up of hard sledding, Ivan hears bang the bang sound. 天色渐渐暗淡,在费力的攀爬上一块巨大的岩石之后,艾文听到轰隆隆的巨响声。 Be careful, this is a giant, we were away from them to be near!” Sirius said that stopped. “小心,这是巨人,我们距离他们已经非常近了!”小天狼星说,停了下来。 „Are they doing?” Ivan asked that caused such big sound!” “他们在干什么?”艾文问道,“弄出这么大的响声!” Did not say, but I think that they were possibly fighting.” Sirius replied. “不好说,但我认为他们可能是在打架。”小天狼星回答道。 Their always this, male with male hitting, female with female hitting, my father had mentioned these matters with me before, is my mother tells him.” Hagrid said that sighs, they cannot control itself, must hit half dead every several weeks mutually.” “他们总是这样,男的跟男的打,女的跟女的打,我爸爸之前和我说起过这些事,是我妈妈告诉他的。”海格说,叹了口气,“他们不能控制自己,每几个星期就要互相打个半死。” This is very normal, although population are not many, but the giant tribe of Sicily constitutes is very complex, many outcomers.” Madam Maxime said that „after they are the beforehand several wars ended, run away, now all presses together, does not fight is the strange events.” “这很正常,虽然人数不多,但西西里岛的巨人部落构成很复杂,有很多外来者。”马克西姆夫人跟着说道,“他们都是之前几次战争结束后逃过来的,现在全都挤在一起,不打架都是怪事。”
