The mushroom cloud that the hitraiseshasabouttenmetershigh, appearsunder the moonlight and star lightclearly, cansee the redindistinctly.
撞击掀起的蘑菇云有近十米高,在月光和星光下清晰浮现,隐隐约约能看见红色。
The loudacoustic shockresults in the glassto vibrateunceasingly, the water in fountainbasingushes outtoall around, Wignyhas not come to a stop, the pillarsitsin conducting the back of Jenieturtle, hurtscalls.
响声震得玻璃不断抖动,喷泉水池里的水向四周涌出,维尼没站稳,一屁股墩坐在杰尼龟的背上,疼得嗷嗷叫。McDulltheywere frightened, the delayis staring at that side, Fattyrunandrollsarrives at the Han Xuanunder foot, graspshiscalfdesperately, the wound of justpreviouslyhittingis, hurts the holding breathcold air, bends the waistto holdit.麦兜它们被吓到了,呆滞盯着那边,胖丁连跑带滚来到韩宣脚下,死命抱住他小腿,刚好是先前撞到的伤口所在,疼得倒吸凉气,弯腰把它抱起来。
After the mushroom cloudraises, the peopleworry, Martinezsaid: „Does meteorhavelikesourSnow Mountain Ranch? Thatbig fellowmightwas as good as the bomba moment ago! Mustfallinpersonmanyplacethatis bad!”
蘑菇云掀起之后,众人就犯了愁,马丁内兹说道:“流星是有多喜欢我们雪山牧场?刚才那个大家伙威力不亚于炸弹!要掉在人多的地方那就糟糕了!”„Go away! Yourcrowmouth!” The oldPattonlowroar, raises headwear a look ofsadly, cannot think that theseare towing the beautifulmeteor of smalltail, nowalsobecomes a type of troublesomething.
“滚!你个乌鸦嘴!”老巴顿低吼,面带忧愁仰头,想不到那些拖着小尾巴的美丽流星,现在也成了种麻烦的东西。„Did wehave a lookin the past?” The Han Xuaneyeshines, suggests.
“我们过去看看?”韩宣眼睛放光,建议道。Jasoncancelshisthoughthastily: „It is not good! Alsoindefiniteisanything, now the darknesscannot see clearly, possiblyhas the danger.”
杰森连忙打消他的念头:“不行!还不确定是什么,现在天黑看不清,可能有危险。”„Butthismatteris very difficultto bump into, perhapsanothersuperhumancameEarthfromkryptonstar, the previoustimedid not fallin the farm of KansasSmalltown/subdues.”
“可这种事情很难碰到啊,说不定又一个超人从氪星来地球了,上次不就是掉在堪萨斯州斯莫尔镇的农场。”„Youknow that is the cartoon......”
“你知道,那是漫画……”Georgehears the boyto talk nonsense, does not know whether to laugh or cry, oneselfonly then the right to suggest, look atanother side.
乔治听到男孩胡扯,哭笑不得,自己只有建议权,把目光投向另一边。Father Hanlooked athim, originallyis not the calm and steadycharacter, comes acrossthismatteris similar tohas100,000catsat heartinflexure, is much itchier, clapsto decide,„looks!

“好!”四散开来准备,安德森让怀孕的谢丽尔先留下,郭母自愿照顾她,其他人都去。Somemanypeoplehave not driven, allpushesafterAndersonPickup Truck the compartment.
有许多人没开车来,全都挤在安德森的皮卡后车厢。Han Xuangoes into the garageto drive, oneselffatherhad drunk, discoversseveralflashlightsin the sidewarehouse, oneminutefinishes, is rapid.韩宣跑到车库开车,自己老爹喝过酒了,在旁边仓库找出几只手电筒,一分多钟时间忙完,迅速出发。
The car(riage)startsveryquickly. In the memorythatthingindirection that falls, spent for twominutesapproaches, sees a pitto send out the fiery-redgloomyrayfrom afar.
车开得挺快。沿着记忆里那东西掉落的方向,花了两分多钟接近,远远看见一个坑在发出火红色的暗淡光芒。Saw that thisstrangesceneno onedaresto walkrashly, Johnaims at the smallhill of itsnorth sidenot far away: „Arrivedthaton.”
见到这怪异景象没人敢贸然走过去,约翰指向它北边不远处的小山丘:“到那上面去。”Han Xuantakes the leadto runtoward the north side. Smallhill more than tenmetershigh, inseveralhillslitsjustcanseeownvilla, no wondercansee the mushroom cloud.韩宣率先往北边跑。小山丘十多米高,几座丘陵缝隙里刚好能见到自家别墅,难怪能看见蘑菇云。
The lawnhad been eatenby the cow, is long is not high, the shoesstep ongu the soundon the grasspile. Jasonholdshiminside, mountssmoothhillpeak, the headlighthad not previously gone outintentionally, does not use the flashlight.
草地被牛吃过,长得不算高,鞋子踩在草桩上咕哧响。杰森在旁边扶着他,登上蛮平坦的丘陵顶端,先前车灯故意没熄灭,用不到手电筒。Han Xuanshock! Inhisfield of visionpresentsin about 15 meters in diameterbig hole!韩宣震惊!他视野中出现一个直径15米左右的大坑里!
The midpointalsohas a deeperpit, refers tonearbyautomobilelength, it is estimated that the almostthreemetersover, are sending out the dark-redray, the aboveemits the whitesmog.
正中央还有个更深的坑,参照旁边汽车长度,估计差不多有三米出头,正发出暗红色光芒,上方冒出白色烟雾。„Bigmeteorite!”
“好大的陨石!”„Wherehas the meteorite? Whereis at?” The fatherprobe headaskedhim.
“哪有陨石?在哪?”老爹探头问他。„Poundedto get down, has not seento shine, withatmospherefrictionheat!”
“砸到地下去了,没看见在发光么,和大气层摩擦烧红了!”„No wonder was like the earthquakea moment ago. Such bigthingpounds......”Martinezto have a lingering fear, so long astowardeasternleaningonekilometer, thisthingcanpoundthemagain, outsidebig holehas more than fourmetersdepth, middlethathas not known that will havemany.
“难怪刚才跟地震一样。这么大的东西砸下来……”马丁内兹心有余悸,只要再往东偏一公里,这东西就能砸到他们了,外面的大坑有四米多深,中间那个还不知道会有多少。
The Han Xuanlandingtimetook the camera, nowliftsis pattingseveral, it is estimated that is the ground watercontact, inthreemetersmanypitemitsonegroup of strongwater vapor, followsto incite the sound, the red lightvanishesgradually.韩宣下车时候拿了照相机,现在举着拍几张,估计是和地下水接触,三米多的坑中冒出一团浓烈水汽,伴随滋滋声,红光渐渐消失。„Nowcango back. TotoonearlyIalwaysfeeldid not feel relieved,after allfrom the outer space, Ifearedanythingharms.” After looking for severalminutes, Jasonsaid. The toneis sincere.
“现在可以回去了吧。离的太近我总觉得不放心,毕竟是从太空中来的,我怕有什么危害。”看了几分钟后,杰森说道。语气恳切。„Un, walks, finds the personto inspecthas comeagain, saw the ghostexactlygreatlyfinally, thistype of thingcanfallinmy family.” The fatherholds in the armsHan Xuanexcitedly, „do youestimateitto be ablebig?”
“嗯,走吧,找人检查过再来,活这么大总算见到鬼了,这种东西都能掉在我家。”老爹兴奋搂住韩宣,“你估计它能有多大?”„It is not clear. Mustlookiswhatshape, shouldbe have fivetonsat least......”
“不清楚。要看是什么形状,最少应该能有五吨吧……”Has not given full expression, on the roaddiscussedloudlythismatter, after saying goodbye, went homerespectively.
意犹未尽,路上大声讨论这件事情,道别后各自回家。Taking a bath of stoodin the balcony, the meteor showerhad finished, calculates that the timelasted for twohours, in this periodaltogetherfellover400meteors, the scalewasquitebig.
洗完澡站在阳台,流星雨已经结束了,算算时间持续两个多小时,其间总共滑落超过四百颗流星,规模算是比较大的。Han Xuansees the alarm clockhandto aim at a point, dozes off, stretches oneselflieson the bed.韩宣见闹钟时针指向一点,打了个瞌睡,伸懒腰躺在床上。Excitedundercannot fall asleep, the mouthcountsFattylow voice, has countedto more than 900Fattygoes offmurkily.
兴奋之下睡不着,嘴里小声数胖丁,一直数到九百多个胖丁才昏沉睡去。At this time, the Billingscityseveral hundredkilometers away.
