1265年初春。

傍晚的天边晕开一片枫叶般的精致的晚霞,空气潮湿微凉,夹道的灌木和青草挂满露珠。

马车上载满被子、锅碗瓢盆等生活用品,车轮碾压过雨后的烂泥地发出嘎吱嘎吱的声响。Somechildrensiton the animal-drawn carttake a short break.

在凯尔莫罕蛰伏了一年多,大家静极思动,才开始这场前往艾尔兰德神殿的交流之旅。Templeis not the Roydestination.
只是神殿并非罗伊的目的地。

“罗伊,咱们还有多久到呢?”阿卡姆托姆一屁股坐到猎魔人身边,惬意地晃动悬空的双腿,黑色的刘海被微风吹得拂过鼻梁间几粒雀斑。„LeftKaer Morhenover half a month, wehave passed throughGeWenliriversandpreviousBujna'sseveralvillages, passed through the KaedwencapitalArd Carraighcityfrom the city, at mostagainonemonth of boundary that enteredEllander.”
“离开凯尔莫罕大半个月了,咱们已经经过葛温里屈河、上布伊纳的几个村落,从城外穿过了科德温的首都阿德·卡莱城,顶多再有一个月进入艾尔兰德的地界。”„SomeMother Nennekereallyyousaidis so affable?” The Carlsmallheadcollectsfrom the Black Horseneck, „inTemplereallyhasover a hundredyoungattractivelittle misses?”

“安静!”女术士忽而一拉马缰,嗓音清脆地大声说,众人随着她视线望去,树林出口不远,南行的必经之路,一条老旧石桥边,能看到一座科德温王国设置的桥头堡,在夕阳的光辉下披上红装。
......
……
The usualbridgehead, only hasthreesoldier, a tollkeeper, a groom, mostin additionseveralpassers-by.
通常的桥头堡,只有三名士兵,一个收费员,一个马夫,最多外加几个过路人。Buthereis actually fully occupied, Roylooksglaring, sees more than 30light infantries, allwears the Kaedwenkingdomclothing, enough50bladeshieldpitch camparound the lowstockade.
可这里却人满为患,罗伊晃眼一瞧,就看到三十多个轻步兵,全都身穿科德温王国服饰,还有足足五十个刀盾手在低矮的栅栏周围扎营。Mostlyfollows the soldieropen countryrules, lies downconserves strengthin the campfire, todealsudden outbreak.
大多遵循士兵野外守则,躺在营火边养精蓄锐,以应对突发状况。But the entrance that opens wideis bustling and filled with people, wantsCeryalsoto restmanysoldier.
而敞开的大门口人头攒动,要塞里也休息着不少士兵。In the courtyardis anchoring the Farmer the carriage of ox cartandmerchant.
院子里停泊着农夫的牛车和商人的马车。In the crookedlookout tower, twosoldierare raising the crosscrossbowsecurity, noticesin the woodsto go out of the team that immediatelyshouts and wrangles!
歪斜的瞭望塔上,两名士兵提着十字弩警戒,注意到树林中走出的队伍,顿时大呼小叫起来!„Day... you, everyoneMaster Witcher, which is thisgoes?” The staff sergeantwelcomedfast, the visionlooks all aroundclose to the carriageteam of fort, thatbothVertical Pupil, makinghimfearful and apprehensive, the toneunknowinglybecomesverypolite, „takesso manychildren, are theyApprentice?”
“天啊…你们,诸位猎魔人大师,这是去哪儿呢?”中士飞快迎了过来,目光环顾靠近要塞的这支马车队,那一双双竖瞳,让他心惊胆战,语气不知不觉变得很是客气,“带上这么多孩子,他们是学徒吗?”Witcherslooks at each otherto look, haslookssuddenly, buton12youngWitcherfacesbringsproudly.猎魔人们相视一望,具都面露恍然,而十二个年轻猎魔人脸上带着骄傲。All the way, theymetmuchawedtothemselveshave the passer- by in addition.
一路上,他们遇到了不少对自己敬畏有加的路人。
Before more than oneyear , the war of thatNovigrad, spreads overentireNorthern Realms . Moreover the biographyis more mysterious, anythingby an enemyhundred, tenpeoplekillsto put onthousandpeople of Templeguards, reallymakesWitcherominousa level higher.
一年多以前那场诺维格瑞之战,传遍整个北境,而且越传越玄乎,什么以一敌百,十人杀穿千人的神殿守卫,委实让猎魔人的凶名更上一层楼。
The deterrent forceis full.
威慑力十足。Withoutwhomdaresto be foul-mouthedtothemagain, or the indirect insultsatire, thisis not the badphenomenon, Witcheris naturally gladcomfortably.
没谁再敢对着他们骂骂咧咧,或者指桑骂槐地讽刺,这自然不是什么糟糕的现象,猎魔人乐得自在。
......
……„Wemustgo toEllander.”Royexceeds the crowdto explainsimply, the visionhas swept the mudground near fort, thatdisorderlyincessantlyis the footprint, a bigpiece of notcoveredfightingtrace, as well aslightbloodytaste of disseminationinair.
“我们要去艾尔兰德。”罗伊越出人群简单地解释,目光扫过要塞附近的烂泥地面,那凌乱不止是脚印,还有一大片未被掩盖的打斗痕迹,以及弥散在空气中的淡淡血腥味儿。Last nightrainstorm, cannotscrubthesetraces.
昨夜的一场暴雨,也没能洗刷掉这些痕迹。Butexcelsat the staff sergeant of watching a person's every moodextremelyrelaxes, not onlydoes not haveto ask,insteadguessed correctly the doubts of Witcher,
而极其擅长于察言观色的中士松了口气,非但没有多问,反而猜到了猎魔人的疑惑,„Grandmastereveryonealsolookedto have problems, last night the fortwas attacked, if not forweled the reinforcementsto catch uppromptly, herehas turned intostretch of ruins.” The staff sergeantsympathizesexplains.
“诸位大师也看出问题了吧,昨晚要塞遭到了袭击,若不是我们及时带着援兵赶来,这里已经变成一片废墟。”中士体贴地解答。Heisreallydoes not dareto provoke more than 20Witchernow.
他现在是真不敢招惹这二十多个猎魔人。soldier of fortaltogetheris about200people, the battlestrengthalsocomparesthatgroup of devoutEternal Fireguardsagain, henaturallydoes not wantto touch the mildewhead of Witcher, asks for trouble.
要塞的士兵总共不过两百人,战斗力再强也比不过那群虔诚的永恒之火守卫,他自然不想触猎魔人的霉头,惹火烧身。„Whodaresto attack the Kaedwensentry post?”GrymmdjarrKnightexceedsfrom the crowd, lived for more than oneyearinKaer Morhen, hesecluded from the worldinformationdoes not pass. „Nilfgaardnotalreadyandnorthernsigningpeace agreement?”
“谁敢袭击科德温的岗哨?”格里姆骑士从人群中越出,在凯尔莫罕住了一年多,他也与世隔绝的信息不通。“尼弗迦德不是已经和北方签订和平协议?”„Nilfgaarddoes not certainly dareto tear up the agreementfrankly and uprightly, thereforeistheysubsidizesin the back, thatcrowd of hatefulforestbanditparties!”
“尼弗迦德当然不敢光明正大撕毁协议,所以是他们背地里资助的,那群可恶的森林匪党!”
The staff sergeantspat a saliva, looks at the Knightthatdark goldmail-armor and helmetandfullblonde, howcannot comprehendcanmix upwith the Witcherboy,
中士吐了口唾沫,看着骑士那暗金的甲胄和满头金发,搞不懂怎么会和猎魔人厮混在一起,„Soiatael!”Heuses the strangeintonation that fillsto detestto read, thatcrowd of fully-armedKaedwensoldier, inhearsShengyanemitto hate the ominouslight.
“Soiatael!”他用充满厌恨的奇怪语调念出来,身后那群全副武装的科德温士兵,闻声眼中放出憎凶光。Roy and companionsexchanged a look, „is this meaning of Scoia'tael?”罗伊和同伴们交换了个眼神,“这是松鼠党的意思?”„Right, your excellency, thisistheycallstoown.

Naturallytheydo not haveElf, hybrid, HalflingandDwarf, as long as the fellows of hatredhumanwon overbythem.”
“没错,阁下,这是他们对自己的称呼。有人说,因为他们的皮帽或者腰间装饰着松鼠尾巴,还有人说,他们住在森林里,吃的只有坚果。当然他们不只有精灵,还有混血、半身人、矮人,但凡憎恨人类的家伙都被他们拉拢了去。”„Ilistened to the hearsay, everyoneto killextremearmed wing of such a crowd of anti-humaninNovigrad.”Hiswhole faceadmiringlysaid,„alsocalculatesdid an excitinggood deed, what a pitykillswere too few.”
“我听过传闻,诸位曾经在诺城杀过这么一群的反人类的极端武装组织。”他满脸钦佩的说,“也算干了件大快人心的好事,可惜杀的太少了。”„Howto say?” The Serritboth handslinkchestasked.
“怎么说?”瑟瑞特双手环胸问。„Nowthatcrowd of hoodlumplaguesexpandfromNovigradtonorthKaedwengenerally. In particular, isentireNorthern Realms.”
“如今那群暴徒瘟疫一般从诺维格瑞扩张到更北边的科德温。确切地说,是整个北境。”„Team that BruggeandKerack, nearbyVerden, the Brokilonforestedge, Aedirn, Kaedwen, TemeriaandRedania, attackallhumancrazed, caravan, army, wanderer of passing by the road.”
“布鲁格、凯拉克,维登附近,布洛克莱昂森林边缘,亚甸、科德温、泰莫利亚、瑞达利亚,丧心病狂地袭击一切人类的队伍,商队,军队,还有过路的流浪者。”„HoweverinKaedwen, theylike the prairie fire and locustgroup, scurries aboutby the situation of shockteam, the place visitedchickendogdoes not remain, is crueler than Bandit that blocking the wayto rob, theydo not ask for money, so long ashumanbleeds, goes to hell.

Thisbridgeheadis a typicalsacrificial victim.”
“而在科德温,他们就像野火和蝗虫群一样,以突击组的形势四处乱窜,所过之处鸡犬不留,比拦路抢劫的强盗更加残忍,他们不要钱,只要人类流血,下地狱。喊着什么‘人类的统治已经结束,是时候恢复旧的秩序,把人类赶回海里去’的口号。这座桥头堡就是一个典型的牺牲品。”WitchershearsYanjuis the complexionwith deep veneration.猎魔人们闻言俱是脸色肃然。Intheirrange chickenearthenware dogScoia'tael, had once developedto make the degree that fourbigkingdomsdreadedhand/subordinate.
曾经在他们手下土鸡瓦狗般的松鼠党,已然发展到令四大王国忌惮的程度。Thisis not the goodnews.
这不是什么好消息。Afterconflict of Novigrad, Scoia'taelandWitcherturned into the mortal enemyrelations.诺城的冲突过后,松鼠党与猎魔人变成了死敌关系。„Does your excellency, according toyourview, cross a bridgetowardsouthgoes to the Ellanderdistance is not peaceful?”Vesemirlooksto the garden, the corpse that severalare covering the plain white cloth, is sending outdecayed.
“阁下,按照你的说法,过桥往南去艾尔兰德的路程不太平?”维瑟米尔看向庭院中,几具盖着白布的尸体,正散发出腐臭。„ToGrandmastereveryone, shouldnot be a problem, multi-Scoia'taelinsufficientlyyoukillagain.” The staff sergeantthought highly ofone, sawthatgroup of children, shifting to a new subject. „Butyouhadso many‚child’, must addcarefully.”
“对诸位大师而言,应该不成问题,再多松鼠党都不够你们杀的。”中士恭维了一句,又看了看那群孩子,话锋一转。“可你们带了这么多‘孩子’,务必要多加小心。”Hehas let the body, signals with the eyestosubordinatesoldier.
他让过了身体,冲麾下士兵们使了个眼神。Witcherat present, was trampledfullyby the horse's hoofis the traceobsoletebrokenbridgeturned into a piece of level road.猎魔人眼前,被马蹄践踏得满是痕迹的老旧破桥变成了一片坦途。12youngWitcherwordsnot onlydo not fear, insteadboth eyesshine.
十二位年轻的猎魔人言非但不惧,反而双目放光。Theyhave receivedenoughinKaer Morhenall daycomparing notesandtraining, the urgently neededactual combatexamines the achievement that oneselftrain.
他们已经受够了在凯尔莫罕整天的切磋、训练,急需实战来检验自己训练的成果。Scoia'tael, perfectpracticing acquiring a skillgoal!松鼠党,完美无缺的练手目标!„Right, the motorcadecrossed a bridgesome time ago, goestoward the south side, shouldwitheveryoneon the way. The weatherwill be black,”heopens the mouthto see a visitor outpersuasively,
“对了,不久前有一支车队过桥,往南边而去,应该和诸位顺路。天色将黑,”他婉转地开口送客,„Thatmotorcadewill stopto make the recuperationinevitablytemporarily. everyone, might as wellwith, takes care ofmutually.”
“那支车队势必会停下来暂做休整。诸位,不妨跟上去,互相照应。”FromKaedwen, toEllander.

一段尘封的记忆从罗伊脑海中浮现,他不由略微激动起来。„What does thatalsowait for?”
“那还等什么?”Roytowardbehindteam, waves, the carriageteamleft the brokenbridgerapidly.罗伊朝着身后的队伍,挥了挥手,马车队迅速离开了破桥。Until the person's shadowvanishesin the eyethoroughly, the passer- by soldierandrest in fortlongrelaxesas if by prior agreement.
