Lightning as has to go to sea only the professional of experience, was the bombardier-navigator bounden. 闪电作为唯一有出海经验的专业人士,义不容辞地担任起了领航员。 In fact she is also strange to this modeling, the material unusual barge is interested. Although seems coarse incomparable, but should have the part that to have as a ship, as for can move, she does not trace certainly. After all, in the sea she is only an observer, the father always rejects the request that she wants to operate the rudder or hoist sails personally most of the time. 事实上她也对这艘造型古怪、材料奇特的驳船充满兴趣。尽管看上去粗陋无比,不过作为一艘船来说该有的部件都具备了,至于能不能动起来,她也摸不准。毕竟,在海上时她大多时候都只是一名旁观者,父亲总是拒绝她想要亲自掌舵或者升帆的请求。 According to the tradition that the new ship sets sail, Lightning one can of ales breaks on the bow, afterward ordered to hoist sails. But Carter as the direction, naturally is not willing to make the little girl snatch the position, therefore after she shouted, the Knight association made up a same order. 按照新船起航的传统,闪电将一罐麦酒砸碎在船头上,随后下令升帆。而卡特作为指挥,自然不愿意让小姑娘抢去位置,因此在她喊完后,骑士总会跟着补上一句相同的命令。 The H.M.S. Little Town sail sews with animal skin, cow hide and sheepskin have occupied most probably, but also mixes some Border Town special products, for example wolf skin bearskin and so on. Therefore seems color depth varies, the brown lime interaction, knits completely the rags of patch likely. The sail assumes the trapezoid, the middle has four as the wooden club separation of crossbeam, the cable across the iron hoop of mast peak, lets fall in the deck. So long as pulls the cable, can raise the entire sail. 小镇号的帆是用动物皮缝制出来的,牛皮和羊皮占了大半,还混有些边陲镇特产,比如狼皮熊皮之类。因此看上去颜色深浅不一,棕白灰相间,像是打满了补丁的破布。风帆呈梯形,中间有四根作为横梁的木棍分隔,缆索穿过桅杆顶端的铁环,垂落在甲板上。只要拉扯缆索,就能将整面风帆升起。 In order to make the operation as far as possible simple, around H.M.S. Little Town two sails both are single sail, is parallel and is vertical mutually to the middle line. If the common hermaphrodite brig such establishes, will cause a sail to eat the wind to be extremely few, is almost equal to losing the function. But had the Wendy controlling wind ability, such design will instead cause the power uniform distribution by the middle line, more convenient helmsman operational direction. 为了使操作尽可能简单,小镇号前后两杆帆都是单帆,相互平行且垂直于中心线。若是一般的双桅帆船这么设置,会导致有一面帆吃风极少,几乎相当于失去作用。但有了温蒂的控风能力,这样的设计反而会使得动力均匀分布在中心线两侧,更方便舵手操作方向。 Lightning sees to hoist sails, directs the worker on land to untie the hemp rope. This time weather is good, the sky occasionally has the snowflake to fall gently, under the promotion of light breeze and water current, the ship leaves the shore slowly. 闪电见升帆完毕,指挥陆地上的工人解开麻绳。此时的天气还算不错,天空偶尔有雪花飘落,在轻风和水流的推动下,船缓缓离开岸边。 The little girls descend to Brian side, shouts: „All astarboard!” 小姑娘降落到布莱恩身旁,喊道:“右满舵！” Carter also shouts: „All astarboard!” 卡特也跟着喊道:“右满舵！” „, Is all astarboard What does it mean?” Brian flexure has the head, „turned right several?” “呃,右满舵是什么意思？”布莱恩挠了挠脑袋,“向右转几圈？” „No, turns left,” Lightning said at the hand-held volume, „forget about it, I come.” “不,向左转到底,”闪电以手扶额道,“算了,还是我来吧。” She forgot this group of people are the first operation sailing ship, the basic instruction meaning was not clear. If a standard hermaphrodite brig, only feared that now has not unfolded including the sail. Is such ten people, but can also let the stone ship smooth disembark, can only say that the design of H.M.S. Little Town really has the originality. 她忘了这帮人都是第一次操纵帆船,连基本的指令含义都不明白。若是一艘标准的双桅帆船,只怕现在连帆都没有铺开。就是这么十个人不到,还能让石船顺利离岸,只能说小镇号的设计确实有独到之处。 She grips the also high steering wheel the hand, the both feet takeoffs, is very heavy regarding the ordinary female to one side revolving-- huge horizontal steering wheel, under situation that in not having the machinery boosts is equal to overcoming the resistance acting of water, moves under the ship's bottom the entire iron rudder. But all these regarding Lightning that can fly completely are not the issues. She stop piece that noted under the tiller to establish has prevented to turn the head, somewhat was curious, heard that this ship was a His Highness the Prince design, why will he link this detail to be clear? Must know, even if year to year treats in the marine sailor, not necessarily clear ships each spot structure. 她握住比自己还高的舵轮把手,双脚离地,向一侧旋转——巨大的横置舵轮对于普通的女性来说十分沉重,在没有机械助力的情况下相当于克服水的阻力做功,扳动船底下方整块铁质舵面。但这一切对于能飞的闪电来说完全不是问题。她注意到舵柄下方设置了防止转过头的阻拦片,不禁有些好奇,听说这艘船是王子殿下一手设计的,他为什么会连这种细节都一清二楚？要知道即使是常年待在海上的水手,都不一定清楚船只各个部位的结构。 „Elder Sister Wendy, gets windy.” “温蒂姐姐,起风吧。” Wendy stands in the ceiling does not know whether to laugh or cry, originally your highness asked do oneself have the acrophobia because of this reason. Promotes the sailing ship with oneself? Remembers these that oneself usually do to live, such as the air-drying flesh lump, the drying up clothes robe wait/etc., has had a subtle contrast feeling suddenly. She opens both hands, since condition that in the ordinary day practices, lets the wind sways from own under foot and top of the head evenly, makes two sails receive the wind power to be equal as far as possible. 温蒂站在棚顶哭笑不得,原来殿下问自己有没有恐高症是因为这个缘故。用自己来推动帆船？想起自己平时干的那些活,如风干肉块,吹干衣袍等等,忽然产生了一股微妙的反差感。她张开双手,进入平日里练习的状态,让风从自己的脚下和头顶均匀吹拂,尽可能使两面风帆所受风力相等。 Truly speaking, Wendy has not thought that this seems like the simple request, will operate so to be difficult. 说实在的,温蒂没想到这个看似简单的要求,操作起来会如此困难。 Although has awakened 15 years ago is witch, but she never tries the excessively deep understanding and controls oneself strength. Summon air current wraps the stone attack enemy rapidly, summoned strong winds to whirl away the enemy, one time released massive magic power. But when the camp processing odd job, the wind power is also sometimes big sometimes small, so long as can achieve goal then it will be alright. Now when remembers the Anna practice the earnest appearance, Wendy thought suddenly somewhat blushes with shame. 尽管在15年前就已经觉醒为女巫,但她从未尝试过深入了解和掌控自己的力量。无论是召唤急速气流包裹石头攻击敌人,还是召唤一股狂风将敌人卷走,都是一次性释放出大量魔力。而在营地处理杂务时,风力也是时大时小,只要能达成目的就行。现在想起安娜练习时认真的模样,温蒂忽然觉得有些汗颜。 " You must first do, practices your ability repeatedly, until completely grasps its-- to be the same with Anna. " 「你首先要做的,是反复练习你的能力,直至完全掌握它——就跟安娜一样。」 Originally this is not a polite talk. 原来这不是一句套话。 Then starts from the present...... Her take a deep breath, attention completely as centralized as the induction of wind. 那么就从现在做起吧……她深吸了口气,将注意力全部集中到风的感应上来。 Although the wind power not completely is balanced, but the ship's sail still ballooning gets up, the continuous thrust force makes the mast make creak the sound, the bow starts to swing toward right. 尽管风力并不完全均衡,但船帆依然鼓胀起来,源源不断的推力使桅杆发出咯吱咯吱地声响,船头开始向右摆动。 „Moved unexpectedly,” Carter said after a sigh. “竟然真的动了,”卡特感叹道。 „Your highness has made ship the stone, but also makes it float on the water surface,” Tigu feels reckless dregs to say with a smile, „what also has is he cannot achieve?” “殿下把石头做成了船,还让它浮在水面上,”提古摸着胡渣笑道,“还有什么是他做不到的吗？” H.M.S. Little Town is far from the river bank, gradually goes in the river courses. 小镇号离河岸越来越远,逐渐行驶在河道中间。 Wendy can only have the wind power baseless, actually cannot make the north wind that had vanish, under two wind actions, the direction of hull advance is not a straight line, must depend upon steer to adjust. This Lightning does not have the means to narrate clearly, can only make Brian realize personally. In order to let him quickly grasps this feeling, the little girl directed him to carry on several big rudders to transform first, after feeling the relations of steering wheel degrees rotation and bow arc of oscillation, then did further slightly adjusts. 温蒂只能凭空产生风力,却不能让原本就存在的北风消失,在两股风力作用下,船身前进的方向并不是一条直线,必须依靠转舵来调整。这点闪电没办法讲述清楚,只能让布莱恩亲自体会。为了让他尽快掌握这种感觉,小姑娘先指挥他进行了几次大舵面变换,感受舵轮旋转角度和船头摆动幅度的关系后,再做进一步细微调整。 After on Scarlet Water River navigated more than half double-hour, Wendy first cannot support. 在赤水河上航行了半个多时辰后,温蒂首先撑不住了。 It is not magic power exhausts, but was the body has reached the limit. 不是魔力耗尽,而是身体达到了极限。 Even if becomes steamed rice dumpling shape the body package, is unable to resist the attack of cold wind completely. On her cotton cap accumulated light snowflake, the hands and feet has frozen soon passes out, stood on the ceiling crumbling. If were not Lightning has discovered the difference when airborne cruise, perhaps she has insisted the stupor. 即使将身子包成粽子状,也无法完全抵御寒风的侵袭。她的棉帽上积起了薄薄一层雪花,手脚冻得快要失去知觉,站在顶棚上摇摇欲坠。如果不是闪电在空中巡航时发现了异样,说不定她会一直坚持到昏迷过去。 Lightning flies side Wendy rapidly, grasps her body, simultaneously shouted that makes Brian approach shore. 闪电迅速飞到温蒂身边,抓紧她的身子,同时大喊让布莱恩靠岸。 Latter kills the steering wheel toward right, bow deflects to the left slowly. Lightning also brought Wendy to fly, in deck, although can only sway to the sail, but at least can evade the cold temporarily, in order to avoid the body temperature outflow was too quick. Moreover approach shores living that this type needs to regulate fine, where Lightning does not dare to give the new person who just the to learn operated the rudder to operate the-- her same in hand to not to go freely. 后者将舵轮向右打死,船头慢慢往左偏转。闪电也带着温蒂飞了下来,在甲板上虽然只能吹拂到一面风帆,但至少能暂避风寒,以免体温流失过快。而且靠岸这种需要精细调控的活,闪电也不敢交给一个刚学会掌舵的新人来操作——尽管她同样里手不到哪里去。 One tosses about, H.M.S. Little Town approach shores finally, has raised with the instantaneous all will of the people that the river bank collides. When hit the hull exudes depressed sound, is good is seeming has not obstructed greatly. The group draw in the sail quickly, puts up the springboard to come ashore. 一番折腾下来,小镇号终于靠岸,与河岸碰撞的瞬间所有人心都提了起来。撞击时船身发出沉闷的响声,好在看上去并没有大碍。一行人很快收拢风帆,搭起跳板上岸。 Unfortunately lucky is, when cruise the people have not chosen a straight line to arrive at the bottom, but back and forth practices in the river course spacious place tone, therefore H.M.S. Little Town has not left set off to be too far. 不幸中的万幸是,试航时众人并没有选择一条直线走到底,而是在河道宽敞处调头来回练习,因此小镇号并未离开出发地太远。 Lightning flies at the back of the Wendy directly toward castle, Carter looks at stone ship to sigh, not having witch to help, they do not want to drive dock the ship. 闪电背着温蒂直接朝城堡飞去,卡特望着石船叹了口气,没有女巫帮助,他们是别想把船开回码头了。
