前来领取第二餐的人数更多了些,好在三人一直在广场上等待,抢到了一个较为靠前的位置。Untiltruejoininglines up in formation, Snake Toothunderstands why thesestockadesmustappointspeech on--stageto change a personregarding the wooden table, stillendlesslywas narratingnewpolicy, probablybeforereceivingwheat porridge, oneselfmustlisten tohimto keep saying.
直到真正加入列队,蛇牙才明白为何这些栅栏要围绕木台而设——台上的演讲员换了一个人,仍在喋喋不休地讲述着新政策,大概在领到麦粥前,自己都要听他唠叨个不停。
The crowdwent forwardslowly, waited forapproximatelyhalfquarter, hecircledbehind the wooden tablefinally.
人群缓缓前进,等了约半刻钟,他终于绕到了木台背后。„Stretches out the right handback.”Waits forsaidinthis'sguard.
“伸出右手背。”守候在此的卫兵说道。
After Snake Toothcomplies, opposite party a sealaccording to hisback of the hand.蛇牙照着做后,对方将一个印章按在了他的手背上。„Next.”
“下一个。”Expandsto the two sides the board fencetohere, encircled an open area, butlined upstillnot to finish, allpeoplein turnreceived the wooden bowlunder the guidance of guarding, ladled gruel, goes toanotherendto sip gruel, puts the bowl. It is difficult to believe,thissystematicorderunexpectedlyis builtby the ordinarycommon peopleandMouse.
木栅栏到这里向两边扩展开来,围成了一块开阔地带,但排队依然没有结束,所有人都在守卫的引导下依次领取木碗,打粥,前往另一端喝粥,放碗。很难相信,这种井然有序的秩序居然是由普通平民和老鼠营造出来的。Snake Toothturned headto look at the eyebehindlonglining up in formation, bottom of heartcannot help butraised an absurdfeeling, as iftheywere are not beggingothers'bestowment, butwas completing a graveceremonyto be ordinary.蛇牙回头望了眼身后长长的列队,心底不由得升起了一股荒谬之感,仿佛他们不是在乞求别人的施舍,而是在完成一个庄重的仪式一般。„What has heprintedtous?”Tiger Clawfinds out the headfrom the back, „unexpectedlycannot wipe off.”
“他给我们印了个什么?”虎爪从背后探出脑袋,“居然擦不掉。”„Ispreventsusto drink upgruel, repeatedlylines up after probablyagain,”hecurls the lipto say.
“大概是防止我们喝完粥后再重复排队吧,”他撇嘴道。

空地外围立着高高的营帐,透过火光,可以看到里面有许多人影在忙碌,时不时有人将沉甸甸的木桶搬运到栅栏边的长木桌前,再由卫兵分发给各人——显然这些食物都是现煮出来的,当冒着白气的麦粥倒入碗中时,蛇牙的双手忍不住轻颤起来。How long hadn't hetastedeatsoverheated?
他已经多久没有尝到过热食了?wheat porridgeis not thick, has not addedto put the vegetable leaf and seasoning, but is only the fragrance that thispure whitegruelsurfaceandoverflows, has madehissaliva unable to stopto upwell. Compared withmixing with the gravel and hullblack bread, the food in bowlmadehimrealize the sweetnessonce more.麦粥并不浓,也没有添放菜叶和佐料,但光是这洁白的粥面和四溢的香味,就已经让他口水止不住上涌了。比起夹杂着石子和谷壳的黑面包,碗中的食物让他再次体会到了久违的甘甜。Oh no, the eyestartedto turn sour.
糟糕,眼睛又开始发酸了。Could not attend to the hottongue, Snake Tooth2-3eatsuponebowl of rice congees, but alsohas licked a cleanness the bowlbottom. Althoughbottom of hearthasto runto seekonebowl of impulsionsagain, guard but who sees the surroundingsurveillance, hehas cancelled finallythisthought. Admitsin the wooden bowl the basin that assignslongingly, hewent out of the stockadeareawith the crowd.
顾不上烫舌头,蛇牙两三下就喝光了一碗白粥,还把碗底舔了个干干净净。虽然心底有着跑回去再求一碗的冲动,但看到周围监视的卫兵,他最终还是打消了这个念头。依依不舍地将木碗放进指定的盆子里,他跟着人群走出了栅栏区。Butexitunexpectedlyalsowooden table, abovespeakingwarmlyanswerpeople'sinquiry.
而出口处居然还有一座木台,上面的宣讲者正在热情地回答众人的提问。Wasin the bellyhadwarmfoodprobably, the cold wind that swayedformerlyto approach/insultvery cold, the Snake Tooththreepeoplehad not postponed the footsteps, approached the wooden tablebygoingwith the crowdslowly.
大概是肚子里有了暖和的食物,就连吹拂的寒风都没先前那么凌冽了,蛇牙三人不由地放缓了脚步,跟着人群缓缓向木台靠去。„Youasked why His Highness the Princecanprovide the relief food? Thisissueaskedwell!”Thatpersondances with joy said that „, becauseyour highnessis determinedthoroughlyto eliminateMouse in stronghold, thesewere forcedbyMouse, has totake ordersforfoodintheircitizen, canliberatethoroughly, does not needto receivetheirthreats! Simultaneouslysomegrain in storageinsufficientfamilies, cango through the difficulty! Thisis the benevolence of your highness!”
“你问王子殿下为什么要发放救济粮?这个问题问得好!”那人手舞足蹈地说道,“因为殿下决心将要塞里的老鼠彻底清除出去,那些受到老鼠胁迫,为了食物不得不听命于他们的领民,可以彻底解放出来,再也不用受到他们的威胁!同时一些存粮不够的家庭,也能借此度过难关!这是殿下的仁慈!”„But before yousaid,wheat porridgeonlyprovidedMonths of Demonsto finish, after that what to do?”Has the peoplesoundto ask.
“可是您之前说,麦粥只发放到邪月结束,那以后怎么办?”有人大声问道。
The scenevoicehas subsidedimmediately, most peoplewill be waiting for that opposite partyanswer, Snake Toothhas also raised up the ear.
现场声音顿时平息了许多,大多数人都将在等待对方的回答,蛇牙也竖起了耳朵。„Is very simple! Youcansupport itself!”Speakingsaid with a smile.
“很简单!你们可以自己养活自己!”宣讲者笑道。„Oneself...... Supports itself?”
“自己……养活自己?”„Iwill not farm.”
“我可不会种地啊。”„Sir, can yousayclearly?”
“大人,您能说得更明白点吗?”„Do not worry, makingmetellyouslowly!”Hebeckons with the hand, „after Months of Demonshad finished, Longsong StrongholdandBorder Townwill merge is a new town, the middleland requirementmassiveworkersopen up wastelandandconstruct, thisisyousupportsownmethod! The work, onlyhas the workto create the wealth, onlyhas the workto change the destiny! Youwill obtain the stablesalary, thesemoney not only can support itself, but can also support the family member! Meanwhile, your highnessgranted, anyperson who had a regular job, is accepted ascitizen of new town!”
“不要着急,让我慢慢告诉你们!”他摆摆手,“邪月结束后,长歌要塞和边陲镇将会合并为一座新城,中间的土地需要大量工人去开垦、建设,这就是你们养活自己的方法!劳动吧,唯有劳动可以创造财富,唯有劳动可以改变命运!你们会获得稳定的薪酬,这些钱不仅能养活自己,还能养活家人!同时,殿下允诺,凡是拥有一份正式工作的人,都会被接纳为新城的领民!”Hiswordsarousedmighty wavesin the crowd, Snake Toothfelt that ownheartfastbeat.
他的话在人群中激起了一阵波澜,蛇牙感到自己的心飞快跳动起来。„Right, Iknow that youare thinkinganything,” the speakinghighsound said, „in you have manyMouse...... Oris forcedinto the Mousecitypeople, buthas not related, through the work, youwill obtainnewborn--not to need the suspiciouslifein the unexposedunderground, does not needto be worried that whichdaywas deliveredhanging post, you can definitely depend uponyourboth hands, received exchangerightrepayment, foodandclothing......

“没错,我知道你们都在想什么,”宣讲者高声道,“你们之中就有不少老鼠……或者说,被迫成为老鼠的城民,但是没有关系,通过劳动,你们将获得新生——不必再偷偷摸摸的生活于不见光的地下,也不必担心哪一天就被送上绞刑架,你们完全可以依靠自己的双手,去换取正当的回报,无论是食物、衣物……甚至是一处遮风挡雨的住所!”„Sir...... So long asis willingto workthen it will be alright?”
“大人……只要愿意干活就行吗?”Heis smilingnod, person who „when the time comesyour highnesswantsfar more thanseveral thousands, therefore...... Yes, so long asis willingto workthen it will be alright.”
他微笑着点点头,“到时候殿下要的人何止数万,所以……是的,只要愿意干活就行。”Snake Tooththoughtsuddenlyoneselfas ifunderstoodanything.蛇牙猛然觉得自己似乎明白了什么。

……Over the next few days, when theyat noonwill go toconcourseto receivewheat porridge, but the citypeople who hears the newsto go toare also getting more and more, almostoccupied the squarehalfopen area. Naturally, there arefew peoplenot to cometofood, theywantto witnessblackstreetMouseJudgement Day.
接下来的几天,他们三人中午时都会前往中央广场领取麦粥,而闻讯前往的城民也越来越多,几乎占据了广场的一半空地。当然,也有一部分人不是冲着食物而来,他们只是想要亲眼目睹黑街老鼠的末日。strongholdalmost the resemblescelebrates a holidayevery daygeneral.要塞几乎每天都像过节一般。Afternoonwheat porridgeprovides, squareanotheris following close on the performance is places on trialandsentences.
当中午的麦粥发放完毕后,广场另一头紧跟着上演的便是审判与处刑。Just likethatwhiterobefemalesaidsame...... Mousecannotescapetheirhunts, Snake ToothsawKanashform--in the trialhisface whiten, kneelstrembleson the punishmentstageslightly, absolutelydid not have the pastarrogantappearance.
正如那位白袍女子所说的一样……没有一只老鼠能逃过她们的追捕,蛇牙在审判中看到了喀纳什的身影——他脸色苍白,跪在刑台上微微发抖,完全没有了往日盛气凌人的模样。Then, hein the bellow that the iron pipeexudes, was crushed the head.
接着,他就在铁管发出的轰鸣声中,被击碎了脑袋。BesidesKanash, many have heard the great person of namemerely.
除了喀纳什外,还有许多仅仅是听说过名字的大人物。For exampleBloody Hand, for exampleironcrow, for examplecutting up the chest and abdominal cavitiesblade...... In the blackstreet the king of ominousfamouscauldroncauldron.

例如血手,例如铁乌鸦,例如开膛刃……都是黑街里凶名鼎鼎的王。他们的表现并不比喀纳什要好上多少。每一名鼠王的死,都会掀起人们热烈的欢呼声,到最后,围观者一边齐呼殿下万岁的口号,一边欢送犯罪者被处刑。
When fourthday, Snake ToothsawQiaoagain, heseemedfullyrecovered the health, fourpeoplewere excited the huginone.
第四天时,蛇牙再一次见到了乔,他看上去完全恢复了健康,四人激动得拥抱在了一起。„Whichyoufor these daysto?”
“你这几天都到哪儿去了?”„Ido not know,”QiaoYaotou said that „at that time the headwas blurry, when wakeshas lain downin a tent, is not painful. Then iseats mealandsleeps, draws backto the fever...... Therehasseveralwithmysamepatient, inwheat porridge that drinksalsoputs the dried meatunexpectedly, myfirsttimealmostswallowed down the tongue.”
“我也不知道,”乔摇头道,“当时脑袋迷迷糊糊的,醒过来时就已经躺在了一间帐篷里,头也不痛了。接下来便是吃饭、睡觉,一直到烧退……那里有好几个跟我一样的病人,喝的麦粥里居然还放有肉干,我第一次差点把舌头都吞下去了。”„Suchgood deed?”Tiger Clawstares saying that „damn, Iwantedto infectCold Plague!”
“还有这样的好事?”虎爪瞪眼道,“见鬼,我都想要感染一场寒疫了!”„In brief, canlivewell,”sunflowergratifiedsay/way.
“总之,能活下来就好,”葵欣慰道。
After everybodysighed, Snake Toothsaidsuddenly, „, whenMonths of Demonshad finished, Imustlook for a work.”
大家感叹一番后,蛇牙忽然说道,“等到邪月结束了,我要找一份工作。”„PerhapstheseMr.nobleindeceivingus, perhapsalsowill when the time comes have all kinds ofattachments,”Tiger Clawlets go saying that „youlooked the Second Armysoldier and police who personnelnowstartedto recruit, requestto have the fixedaddress, and life experienceis pure, has not committed a crime, does not permit the larceny, has not consideredus.”
“也许那些贵族老爷只是在糊弄我们,到时候说不定还会有各种各样的附加要求,”虎爪摊手道,“你看现在已经开始招募的第二军战士和警察人员,都要求有固定住址,并且身世清白,没有犯过罪,连偷窃都不允许,根本没把我们考虑在内嘛。”Snake Toothshook the head, does not haveanswer. Announcedthesematters that saidbit by bitare becoming the reality, herealized that the His Highness the Princeso-callednew townmayfar exceedownimagination--inthisbothshortandlonginseveralday, hehas felt the changegradually.蛇牙摇了摇头,没有回答。公告上说的那些事情正在一点一点变成现实,他意识到王子殿下所谓的新城或许会远远超出自己的想象——在这既短暂又漫长的几天里,他已经逐渐感受到了变化。Ifspeakingsaidreal, can healsoobtainscrapfootholdin the new town? Ifcanget rid of the Mousestatus, when seesWhite Paperonce more, won't makeherfeelembarrassedly?
如果宣讲者说的都是真的,那他是否也能在新城中获得一小块立足之地?若能摆脱老鼠身份,再次见到白纸时,也不会让她觉得难堪了吧?
