AlongMatou Subdistricttowardheading west for a halfhour, the frontpresents a widthto surpassfivekilometersvastriver.
一路沿着码头街道往西行了半小时,前方出现一条宽度超过五公里的浩瀚大河。
The river wateris torrential, seemsgoes full steam ahead, foreverwill flow in the baywithout limits.
河水滔滔,好似万马奔腾,永无止境地流入海湾。Rhoyne, Rhoynarmother river.洛恩河,洛伊拿人的母亲河。Leaves the coast, Hathayturns round, enters the VolantisEast cityalong the river banktowardnorth.
离开海岸,象车拐了个弯,沿着河岸向北进入瓦兰提斯东城。Even the weatheris gloomy, evenis away fromseveralkilometers, Dany can still seenorthbigBlack Wall.
即便天色暗淡下来,即便隔着好几公里,丹妮依然能看到北方高大的黑墙。VolantisisFirst Daughter of Valyria, the firstcolonizingcity-state that besideLands of Long Summerestablishes, orfirstoutpost.瓦兰提斯是瓦雷利亚的大女儿,长夏之地之外建立的第一座殖民城邦,或者说,前哨站。Rhoynehad the oneselfmasterat that time, dominateswestEssoscontinentChildren of the Rhoyne--Rhoynar.洛恩河当时有自己的主人,称霸厄索斯西大陆的洛恩河之子——洛伊拿人。Therefore, thisyour presenceoutpostwas very firm, useswithnotwithstood/top the exceedingly hightower and Valyrian roadsameconstructionmethod, namelyOrosHigh Priestsaid„immortalstone”.
所以,这座前哨站特别坚固,采用了与无顶通天塔、瓦雷利亚大道一样的建造手段,即奥罗斯大祭司所说“不朽石”。Immortalstonenon-refers tosometype of stone, butfuses the rockwith the specialmethod, increasesMagicrune/glyph, pours into the mold, the castinghas the construction of overall construction, the entiregiant stoneconstructionhas the imperishability.
不朽石非指某种石块,而是用特殊手段将岩石熔融,添加魔法符文,灌入模具,铸造出整体结构的建筑,整个巨石建筑具有不朽性。For example, several thousandkilometersValyrian road is completely a whole, 300 meters in height and sophisticatedexceedingly hightower is also a whole.
比如,几千公里的瓦雷利亚大道完全是一个整体,高300米、结构复杂的通天塔也是一个整体。Elliptichugecity wall of Dongcheng District is also so, 60metershigh, over15meterswidth--isDragonlordtaking off and landingprepares.
东城区的椭圆形巨大城墙也是如此,60米高,超过15米宽——为龙王起降准备的。Volantishas an advantageousnaturalharbor, after the Dragonlordcontrollingdragonenters the Rhoyneplain, the scope of large citiesstartsrapidlyto expand.瓦兰提斯有一座得天独厚的自然海港,在龙王驭龙进入洛恩河平原之后,城市规模开始迅速扩张。East bank in riverBlack Wallliveswas the bloodlinecantraceValyriaOld Blood, outside the wall the extensioncitywas filled with the wealthyValyriaclanFree Folkhouse, store and hotelnewly.
河东岸的黑墙内居住的都是血统能追溯到瓦雷利亚的旧贵族,墙外新扩建的城区挤满了富裕瓦雷利亚族自由民的住宅、商店和旅馆。But the West bankis a chaoticbiglatrine pit, the mainpopulationconstitutionis: Criminal, eunuch, pirateandpickpocket who the foreign passengersandmarine traders, poorFree Folkandmercenary, escape.
而西岸则是一个混乱的大粪坑,主要人口构成为:外国旅客、海商,贫穷的自由民、雇佣兵、逃亡的罪犯、太监、海盗、扒手。

一座长桥连接东、西两城。Danyis the foreign passenger, goes northby the wharf, entersDongcheng DistrictalongRhoyne, thencrosses the bridge, goes to the Merchant's Houseinn in western city district.丹妮属于外国旅客,由码头北上,沿着洛恩河进入东城区,然后过长桥,去西城区的商人之屋旅店。

暮色已逝,黑夜笼罩大地,街道两边的商铺、酒店,或者商贩摊位,一个个挂出羊皮纸灯笼、彩色玻璃油灯,诸多彩色光圈点亮了灰石板路面。
The pedestriana while under lampcoversin the greenhalo, a whileenters the redlight halo, is the purpleandorange......
灯下的行人一会儿笼罩在绿色光晕中,一会儿进入红色光圈,接着又是紫色、橙色......

周围一片嘈杂的声音,还有冒着热气的小摊贩处传来的奇怪烤肉香,这一切都让丹妮产生回到现代逛夜市的错觉。
The bridgeclose toconnectionthingcity, the transportationbecomeseven morecrowded, on the streetis filled with the dray, handcartandHathay.
接近连接东西城区的长桥,交通变得越发拥挤,街上挤满载货马车、手推车和象车。Thesecar(riage)smostlytobridgein the past, orjustfrombridge.
这些车大都是冲着长桥过去,或刚从桥上过来的。
The cockroach in slave and garbage heapare equally many, fourrushes aboutfor the assignment of master.
奴隶和垃圾堆里的蟑螂一样多,为了主人的差事四下奔忙。Kadlik on elephant's backdoes not dareliketo callin the wharfarealoudlygives way the personto allow to pass through.象背上的凯迪拉克也不敢像在码头区那样大声吆喝着让行人让路。Becauseenters the people of bridge is not all affable, besidesriding the elephantBlack Wallaristocrat, takesHathay and merchantsandrich and powerful people of sedan chaircar(riage), the most expensivepassenger.
因为进入长桥的人个个都不好惹,除了骑大象的黑墙贵族,还有乘坐象车与舆车的商人、富豪、最贵旅客。
The bridgeentrancehad a Blackstonearched entrance, in the gatecarvedSphinxandlionbodyManticore, dragonsandotherstrangeanimals.
长桥入口处有一座黑石拱门,门上雕刻了斯芬克斯、狮身蝎尾兽、龙和其他奇异动物。

门后的长拱桥与黑墙、通天塔一样,都由融化的石头砌成,以巨柱为支撑,在河水湍急的入海口稳如泰山,坚如磐石,横跨两公里宽河面。In the Lomos Longstriderwork, thisbridgeandNorthWallandOld GhisGreat Pyramidand otherconstructionsandsaid that Ice and Fire WorldninebigconstructWonders.
在“长腿”洛马斯的著作中,这座长桥与北境长城、旧吉斯大金字塔等建筑并称冰与火世界九大建筑奇迹。Itis the constructionmasterpiece of Valyriaheyday.
它是瓦雷利亚全盛时期的建筑杰作。
The road surface on bridgejustpermitstwocar(riage)sparallel, when the east and westvehiclesrendezvous, mustdecelerateto crawl, Hathay of twoyouthwashed outby the stream of peoplewhencrossing a bridge.
桥上的路面刚好允许两车并行,东西两方车辆交会时,都必须减速徐行,两个青年的象车在过桥时被人流冲散。But the fattystatus that rideselephantis uncommon, has the superiorfacial expression , to continue leisurelynorthbound, hemustreturn toBlack Wall.
而那个骑大象的胖子身份不凡,带着优越的神情,优哉游哉继续北行,他要回黑墙。Un, before the bridgeentrancedistinguishes, hisalsolustfullooks atDany, sends outto invite: „Madame, althoughyourbloodlineis inferior tometo be noble, has the obviousValyriacharacteristics, messy and dirtyWestern citydoes not suityou, might as wellgo tomywife and childrento live insome time?”
嗯,长桥入口分别前,他还色眯眯看着丹妮,发出邀请道:“女士,你的血统虽不如我高贵,却也有明显的瓦雷利亚特征,脏乱的西城不适合你,不如去我家小住一段时间?”End, but alsolifts the plumpdouble chin, addedproudly: „Icome from Black WallgreatHouse Kloris, youmustknow,in the personwithout the cityinvited, the average personis unable to enterBlack Wallfor a lifetime.”
末了,还抬起肥厚的双下巴,骄傲地补充道:“我来自黑墙内伟大克罗里斯家族,你要知道,未经城内人士邀请,普通人一辈子也无法进入黑墙。”Thatappearance, seemssomesecond generation of rich„scoffing”, stops a redFerraribefore the Danybody, presses down the glass, casts off the sunglassesnatural, lifts the chinto ask: „Wants the same place?”
那模样,好似某个富二代“嗤”的一下,将一辆红色法拉利停在丹妮身前,按下车窗,潇洒地摘掉墨镜,抬起下巴问:“要不要一起?”„Invitationthank you, Iwill enterBlack Wall, butis nottonight.” The Danysmileturns down.
“谢谢你的邀请,我会进黑墙,但不是今晚。”丹妮微笑婉拒。
The fat peoplehave not saidanythingagain, nodsthenrideselephantto leave.
胖子没再说什么,点点头便骑着大象离开了。On the bridgeis bustling and crowded, the air pollution, Danyhas been covering the nosewith the hand scroll, without the moodwatchesnearbyscenery, pushed for a halfhourto pass through the bridge, came toWestern city.
长桥上人流拥挤,空气污浊,丹妮一直用手卷捂着鼻子,没心情观看附近风景,挤了半个小时才穿过长桥,来到西城。Crossednearby the bridgewith great difficultythattraffic congestionpath, Hathayturnedinto the westernspaciousstreet, the speed was also fast, the blondecart driverturned the headto saytoDanywith a smile: „Guest, should not be anxious, immediatelymustenterFishmonger's Square.”
好不容易过了长桥附近那段交通拥挤的道路,象车拐入西边一条宽敞街道,速度才又快了起来,金发车夫转头笑着对丹妮道:“客人,您别急,马上就要进入鱼贩广场了。”Finishes barely the words, frontcrossroadstransmitsoneto clamorsuddenly, quick, tworows of 12Unsulliedgrasped the lanceslightlyto runto clashfrom the corner.
话音未落,前方十字路口突然传来一阵喧哗,很快,两排共十二名无垢者手持长矛小跑着从拐角冲了出来。„Makes way, makes way, allows to pass throughforSirTriarch!”Unsulliedshouts.
“让开,让开,为执政官大人让路!”无垢者喊道。Kadlikdrives away the white elephantto anchorhastilyin the roadside, oneselfalsoclimbs downelephant's backspeedily, kneelsunder the elephantbellyhonestly.凯迪拉克连忙驱赶白象停靠在路边,自己也一溜烟爬下象背,老老实实跪在大象肚皮底下。

“听说执政官身份尊贵,任职的这一年间,他们的脚都不能接触土地,无论上哪他们都得乘坐大象。”巴利斯坦小声对丹妮解释道。„Hehe, from the birthto the death, occupiedValyriaDragonlord in exceedingly hightowerneverto touchlandhigh a time. Theirlater generationdid not have the dragon, can only rideelephant.” The Danytauntsaid.
“呵呵,从出生到死亡,高居通天塔上的瓦雷利亚龙王从不触碰一次大地。他们的后人没了龙,只能骑大象。”丹妮嘲讽道。„Moo--”huge elephantexudes the longresoundingcry.
“哞——”巨像发出悠长响亮的叫声。„Did less than halfplacecityhear? Every daywalks, the entirecitypeopleknow that Triarchpatrolled the streets.”Danygrinningcocoaear.
“小半座城都听到了吧?每天走一圈,全城人都知道执政官巡街了。”丹妮龇着牙抠抠耳朵。„Triarch Doniphosharnesses!”FrontbigTiger Cloaksyelled.
“多法斯执政官驾到!”前方一名高大虎袍军大叫道。
After the endcatastrophe, Volanteneregards the Freeholdsuccessoroneselfnaturally, is the entireworldmaster.
末日浩劫发生后,瓦兰提斯人理所当然地把自己当成自由堡垒的继承者,也就是全世界的主人。Buthowregardingto ruleworld, theiropinionsare inconsistent. Old Bloodbelieves in the military force, the merchant and lending moneypersonadvocates the trade.
但对于如何统治世界,他们的意见并不一致。旧贵族信奉武力,商人和放债人则提倡贸易。Regardingthesetwotendencies, tostrive for the cityleadership, graduallyformedtwoparties, namelyTigersandElephants.
围绕这两种倾向,为争夺城市领导权,逐渐形成了两个党派,即虎党和象党。Tiger CloaksfromradicalTigers, wears the tigerhelmet, on the cheekspunctures the greenoldrecklessstripe, is the slavesoldier.虎袍军源自激进的虎党,戴着虎头盔,脸颊上刺有绿色老胡条纹,皆是奴隶士兵。„Did yousaythem to mein any case?

“你说他们会不会向我反正?瓦兰提斯连同洛恩河流域附近的城镇,一共有30,000-40,000虎袍军呢!”丹妮神色莫名道。„Youlooked,”old personpoints atthatto runseveralstepsto shout a higharmygentleman of worker's chant, saidin a low voice,„theirvigor and Slaver's Bayslavesoldieris completely different, insteadlooks likewithKing's LandingGold Cloakvery much, on the facebrims withis being proudandself-confident.”
“你看,”老人指着那个跑几步就喊一声号子的高大军士,低声说,“他们的精气神与奴隶湾的奴隶士兵完全不一样,反而与君临的金袍子很像,脸上都洋溢着骄傲与自信。”Danysighed, has not saidanythingagain.丹妮叹口气,没再说什么。Waits for the Triarchteamto leave, Kadlikties up the leather beltonelephantbelly, the spiritmonkeyfleesgenerallyelephant's back.
等执政官的队伍离开,凯迪拉克一拉绑在大象肚皮上的皮带,灵猴一般窜上象背。Happen toDanyalsodrivesHathaybehind, listened toaboveonepersonto sneerwas spittingone. „Hehe, Doniphosalso can only againimposingsixdays.”
正好丹妮身后也驶来一辆象车,就听上面一人冷笑着啐了一口。“嘿嘿,多法斯也只能再威风六天了。”Companionnodapproval: „The matter of forming an alliancehas been a foregone conclusion, threeTriarch, twohave openly expressed the intense enmitytothatwoman, hehas saidis prudent, the person in Black Wallwill certainly not electhimagain.”
身边同伴点头赞同:“结盟之事已成定局,三个执政官,两个公开表达过对那个女人的强烈敌意,就他一直说要慎重,黑墙里的人当然不会再选他。”Twocar(riage)sstaggerquickly, enters the differentstreetsincrossroadsrespectively, Danysaidlooking pensive: „Nowalsoreallycomesright, does not cometo take a lookpersonally, Ido not knowVolantisunity is strength, the firmmustfightwithme.”
两辆车很快错开,分别在十字路口进入不同街道,丹妮若有所思道:“今趟还真来对了,不亲自过来瞧瞧,我都不知道瓦兰提斯众志成城,坚定信念要与我一战了。”„Not is only Volantis, Iguess that the Qarth, New Ghis, Lysand othercity-state of the situationsare also similar.

“不仅是瓦兰提斯,我猜魁尔斯、新吉斯、里斯等城邦的情况也差不多。不过大人也不用太过担心,龙之母的敌人永远只有最上层那一小撮人,普通人......民心如水,随着风浪变动。”老人低声安慰她道。„Works asding-dong......”
“当当当......”
„ Thump thump thump...... „
“咚咚咚......“
The frontstreettransmitshas the rhythm the knocking of copper gongandflower drumintermittently, but alsofollows the melodiousflute and persuasivemovingharp, synthesizesmusic that happyloud and clearactuallydoes not make noise.
前方街道传来阵阵有节奏的铜锣与花鼓的敲击声,还伴随悠扬长笛与婉转动人的竖琴,合成一曲欢乐洪亮却不喧闹的乐曲。
The Danysidehead, crosses the buttocks of elephant, saw that the longtorchteamwalksslowlytohere.丹妮侧头,越过大象的屁股,看到长长的火炬队伍慢慢向这边走来。By the people who the torchbearersurroundsis the vaudevilleartist, twodoto meetdwarf of throwing a ballacrobatics, has the length the anomalyclown of strangecorbelandcow hooves, hasgarlandMaiden that is walking on stiltsandsinging loudlyloudly, hasto wear the shiningleather clothing, on the facealsosmudges the shiningpersonto ride a whitelion, holds the goldenmulticolored silk bannerto bluff and bluster, but alsosomepeople......
被火炬手包围的人多是杂耍艺人,有两个做接抛球杂技的侏儒,有长着古怪牛腿、牛蹄的怪胎小丑,有踩着高跷、大声高歌的花环少女,有个身穿金灿灿皮衣,脸上也涂抹得金灿灿的人骑着一头白色雄狮,举着金色锦旗耀武扬威,还有人......Theseacrobat and torchbearershad a common ground, behind the clothesdraw a brightShuanglongto hold the families of high-ranking officialsemblem.
这些杂技师与火炬手有一个共同点,衣服后面都画了个鲜明的双龙捧冠族徽。Heardon the streetsomepeople saying: „Vaudevilleteam that Methysoinvited.”
就听见街上有人说:“马司约索请的杂耍班子。”„Moo!” After vaudevilleartistandtorchbearer, hashugeHathay.
“哞!”杂耍艺人与火炬手之后有一辆巨大的象车。
The frontelephantbodysidewriteshugenamewith the unusualluminous powder„civilianheroMethyso”, on the rearvehiclesoft seat is also standing the silver-hairedyoungValyriaaristocrat.
前方大象身侧用奇特的荧光粉写着巨大一个名字“平民英雄马司约索”,后方车子软座上还站着个银发年轻瓦雷利亚贵族。Helifts the sparkingbrightbrassloudspeakerto shout loudly: „ Free Folk of Western city, just likeyou, my fatherMethyso is also Free Folk, only thenhecanrepresentordinaryFree Folk.
他举着个闪亮亮的黄铜喇叭高喊:“西城的自由民,和你们一样,我父亲马司约索也是一位自由民,只有他能代表普通自由民。Foryou, foryou, forourcommoninterests, pleasecast a Methysoticket. ”
为了你,为了你们,为了我们大家共同的利益,请投马司约索一票。”
The Danycorners of the mouthtwitch, has a dreamto return to the modern age, watches the curvednews the misconception.丹妮嘴角抽搐,又产生一种梦回现代,观看弯弯新闻的错觉。Defendsin the barbecueintestinesstallfollowingblondefattyshoutsgreatly: „Ducker, your fatherMethysois very good, butFree Folk on our streetmostlydo not have the eligible voter!

一个守在烤肉肠小摊后面的金发胖子大嚷道:“小达克,你父亲马司约索很不错,可我们这条街上的自由民大多没资格投票啊!你还是去黑墙附近转转吧,别耽误我们做生意。”AchievespropertystandardVolantisFree Folkto have the votingqualifications, west of the rivershorefewindividualscanvote, evenin the east bank, the ordinary people are still hardto win the voting rights.
达到财产标准的瓦兰提斯自由民才有投票资格,河西岸就没几个人能投票,即便在东岸,市井小民也难以获得投票权。
The VolantisTriarchelectionseems like the democracy, butin the final analysis is also only the game of richandaristocrat.瓦兰提斯执政官选举看似民主,可说到底也只是富人与贵族的游戏。Sidehangs‚dragongeneral store’signlittlebuildingto go out of a tall and strongmiddle-agedwoman, the voiceroasting the intestinesfattyis louder and clearer than: „Whatrevolutionstransfers, Ducker, makingyourfatherlose heart, without the noblebloodline, whowill electyou?”
旁边挂着‘巨龙杂货铺’牌子的小楼走出一个魁梧中年女人,嗓门比烤肠胖子还洪亮:“转什么转,小达克,让你老子死心吧,没高贵血统,谁会选你?”„Hehe, AuntChloe, should youhave the voting rights? Tomy father a ticket!”Silver-hairedyouthgrinningsay/way on Hathay.
