“阿德快停下来!”Evelinecovered the forehead, the elegantcheekswrinklelook like the bitter melon.爱佛琳捂了捂额头,秀美的脸颊皱得像苦瓜。

眼前的的小男孩正躲避着小丑弗洛兹的追赶,如同聒噪的公鸡般在车队里乱蹿,他似乎觉得自己仍然拥有一对翅膀,双臂别扭地向后高举着,弓背、撅屁股、伸直脖子,模仿着从前茶隼的模样不停地“飞行”,然而他飞不起来。Heis vibrating the armat the same time, the mouthalsosends outclearly, immature„Ducker, Ducker”infant voice, but the tongueseemedstirsonegroup, suddenlyoutstandingtongue, suddenlytonguetied, Evelinehas tobe worried that thischildwill bite the owntongue.
他一边震动着手臂,嘴里还在发出清脆、稚嫩的“达克、达克”的童音,但舌头好似搅成了一团,忽而翘舌、忽而卷舌,爱佛琳不得不担心这个孩子会咬伤自己的舌头。„Oh, is really a mischievouschild.”
“唉,真是个调皮的孩子。”Butin the motorcade others are hugging, not onlysorrowful and feelingis gazing atthisfarce——funnilylivelyemerges from the shadow that the regimental commandercommitted suicideslightly.
而车队里其他人正抱着手,既悲哀又感好笑地注视着这一幕闹剧——阿德的活泼稍稍驱散了团长自杀的阴影。„Livelypoint.”Roysaidjoyfully,„alwayscomparessadlyis betterdespondently. Everyonefirstdo not tellthemAaron'sdeath newsin any case. Whentheywere oldersaidagain.”
“活泼点也就罢了。”罗伊欣然道,“总比伤心抑郁要好。反正大家先别把亚伦的死讯告诉他们。等他们年纪大一些再说。”„Thatlittle fellowis thornier.” The youngsterthink of not very awkwardscene——littlegirl who in the compartmentsaw is also mistakenoneselfare the owl, wantedto standlike the paston the wooden stickrests.
“不过阿莉那小家伙更棘手。”少年想到了车厢里看到的令人啼笑皆非的场景——小女孩儿还误以为自己是猫头鹰,想要像从前那样立在木棒上休息。However, herbodystructureis entirely different from the birds, simplycould not haltinsteadfell the fulllarge package, firstwasyingchirpkeeps crying, afterwardas ifthinkswithout a tracefather, satin a groundporcelain dollkeeps silentlikely.

最麻烦的是,这两个孩子能听懂的词汇相当有限,也说不了人话,心智也比同龄的孩子更差。只是对善意、调侃比较敏感。„Hopes that theycansoonreturn tonormal!”
“希望他们能早日恢复正常!”

……
A gloomyday, the seascorpionleaves the Chagallvillagealreadyoneweek, after entering the territory of Ellanderpro-kingdom, theycontinueto the west, arrived at the capitalEllandercity.阴沉沉的一天,海蝎子离开夏尔村已然一周,进入了艾尔兰德亲王国的领土后,他们又继续一路向西,来到了首都艾尔兰德城。Thisgiantcityis situatedsouth of the Mahakammountain ridgewesternPontarvalley.
这座巨大的城市坐落在玛哈坎山脊西边的庞塔尔谷以南。Raiseswhile convenient, the Pontarvalleyis located inTemeria, RedaniaandAedirn, thesefourNorthern Realmsbiggestkingdoms the places of connection, for one of the northmost importantmilitaryregions.
顺带一提,庞塔尔谷位于泰莫利亚、瑞达尼亚、亚甸,这四个北境最大的王国的交汇之处,为北方最重要的军事地带之一。
The folkis spreadingsucha few words, whocancontrol the Pontarvalley, whocangraspentirenorth!
民间流传着这样一句话,谁能控制庞塔尔河谷,谁就能掌握整个北方!Theimportancecan be inferred.
其重要性可见一斑。As the diving platform of Pontarvalley, Ellandercitypositionalsofollowingwhen production costs rise, prices rise too, moreoverit is not only the militaryheavysimilarlyis the business center, althoughcannot comparenorthbiggestcityNovigradto have30,000populationlike that but the resident populationalsosurpassed10,000.
作为庞塔尔谷的跳台,艾尔兰德城地位也跟着水涨船高,而且它不仅是军事重地同样是商业中心,虽然比不上北方最大的城市诺维格瑞那般拥有三万人口,但常住人口也超过了一万。
The hugepopulation basebrought the giantopportunity, Ellanderregionalmerchantsgatheredto set up the merchantassociationinthis, the horse-drawn vehicles of variousdeliveryspecial productsgatheredinthisfar apart, brisk trade, other other all kinds ofarchitectassociationsandblacksmithassociations, openeddramatically.
巨大的人口基数带来了巨大的商机,艾尔兰德各地的商户在此汇聚设立了商人协会,,运载天南地北各处特产的马车在此汇聚,贸易繁荣,连带着其他其他五花八门的建筑师协会、铁匠协会,也开得有声有色。Moreoveris not farfromTemeriacapitalVizima, good communications.
而且距离泰莫利亚首都维吉玛还不远,交通便利。At this timeis the busymorning, the city gatefronthad a team leaderdragon, the fully-armedlancesoldieris inspecting the crowd of communicationone by oneone by onetirelessly.
此时正值繁忙的上午,城门前排起了一队长龙,全副武装的长矛兵正逐个逐个不厌其烦地检查着来往的人群。Roysees thattoEveline of temporarily substituting forregimental commandergreetsandagreesin the goodcity the hotelto meet, thendrawsWitcherto leave.罗伊见状向暂代团长的爱佛琳打了个招呼、约定好城内旅馆见面,便拉着猎魔人离开。„Youverylonghave not come to the Ellandercity,”Royansweredtodoubtsbig fellow, „as far as I know, Ellandertoodoes not welcomeWitchernow.”
“你很久没来艾尔兰德城了吧,”罗伊向疑惑的大汉解释道,“据我所知,艾尔兰德现在不太欢迎猎魔人。”Nowwas close to the beginning of 1261, in the Roymemorysevenyears ago in 1254about, rushed to the Butcher of Blavikenevil reputationWhite Wolfto makedirtyin the Ellandercity. Was first regardednot to have the thinginsult of valuebyOrder of the White Rose, participates in the duel that onecannothit backcompletelygrudgingly.
现在接近1261年年初,罗伊记忆中七年前的1254年左右,闯下布拉维坎屠夫恶名的白狼在艾尔兰德城中弄了个灰头土脸。先是被白蔷薇骑士团当成没有价值的东西侮辱,又不情愿地参与了一场完全不能还手的决斗。AlthoughduelvictoryWhite Wolfsaved the lifefinally, butfurtherenragesOrder of the White Rose, is thinking highly ofKnight OrderCrown PrinceHereward and sacred hallrepresentative assemblyto have a complainttohimextremely.
虽然最终决斗胜利白狼保住了性命,但进一步激怒白蔷薇骑士团,连带着极其器重骑士团的希沃德亲王、圣堂参议会都对他有所怨言。Royfelt before perhaps the LethoWitcherstatusexposedwords, meetreceivedWhite Wolf, involvement of behavior.罗伊觉得雷索猎魔人的身份被揭破的话,恐怕会受到白狼之前行为的牵连。Lethoshrugs, thinks little, „more than 20yearshave not come to the Ellandercity. However, Ihad not heard that the northernwhichcountryforbidsWitcherto pass through.”雷索耸了耸肩,不以为意,“二十多年没有来过艾尔兰德城市。不过,我没有听说北方哪个国家禁止猎魔人通行。”„Doesn't bigcityhavemonsterto cause trouble? So long asthere iscomission, theywill not rejectus.”Although the toneis light, but the big fellowattitudeis very firm. „We must enter a cityto supplementsomeAlchemycommodities.”
“偌大个城市难道不存在魔物作祟?只要有委托,他们就不会拒绝咱们。”虽然语气平淡,但大汉态度很坚决。“咱们还得进城补充一些炼金物资。”„Good, wefirstgive a try to mix. If not really goodseekshislawagainin addition.”
“好吧,我们先试一试看能不能混进去。如果实在不行再另觅他法。”
The Roylookcrossedcrowd——Temple of Meliteleto be situatedoutside the city, hillsidehoweverconstructed. Waitsrecuperationin the city, will then overtake.罗伊的眼神越过了人群——梅里泰莉神殿就坐落在城外,依山而建。等在城内休整一番,接下来就会赶过去。

……Two peoplehave not donetoocover up.
两人没有做太多遮掩。Royentangled the black hairwith a whitetowel, camouflaged the sharpear, butLethowears the crudeandsimpleflaxclothingwithhimgenerally, rather thanWitcherconsistentconspicuousvigorattire, even the symbolicSchoolsymbol, the doubleswordandpotionhaveonenot to have. It seems staturebigandsturdyFarmer, mixes in the crowdto line up.罗伊用一条白毛巾缠了黑发,遮蔽了尖尖的耳朵,而雷索同他一般穿着简陋、朴素的亚麻制衣,而非猎魔人一贯的显眼的劲装,甚至连标志性的学派徽记、双剑、药剂带一个都没有。好似一个身材高大、粗壮的农夫,混入人群排起了队。Howeveris contrary to what expects, whenRoysmoothfromguardingeyelid , the ice-coldsoundmakeshisfigureonestiff.
然而事与愿违,当罗伊顺利从守卫眼皮底下经过后,身后一个冰冷的声音让他不由身形一僵。„Raised the head!”
“抬起头来!”Heturns head, actually the discoveryguardsstraightis staringLetho, got hold ofweapon in handquietly.
他一回头,却发现守卫直直的瞪着雷索,悄然握紧了手中的武器。
The soldierflashing eyes of entrancesurrounded, the surroundingatmospherebecomesdepressedincomparable, falling the needlemayhear, the pressedpersonbreathesquicklygets up. The pedestrians of communicationstopped the footsteps.
入口处的士兵都目光炯炯地包围了过来,周围的气氛变得沉闷无比,落针可闻,压的人快喘不过起来。来往的行人都不禁停下了脚步。„Right, isyou, the big fellowraised the headto come to seetome!”
“对,就是你,大块头给我抬起头来看看!”big fellowhearsword, the corners of the mouthsplitto wipesharpcurveto coverrapidly, the gotten hold ofdoublefistalsoloosens.大汉闻言,嘴角裂开一抹锋利的弧度又迅速掩去,握紧的双拳也松开。Insighingsound that slightlycannotbe scratched, heobeyed the order of soldier.
微不可擦的叹气声中,他听从了士兵的命令。
The Royheart that the one sidelooks atexudesgrieved, even ifWitcherishundredpeople of enemies, sometimesalsohas tolower the headfacing the strength of common custom.
一旁看着的罗伊心头泛起酸楚,猎魔人哪怕是百人敌,有时候面对世俗的力量也不得不低下头。„Yo, originallyisWitcher!”
“哟,原来是个猎魔人!”Graspedsoldier of lanceto lift. armor, on the witheredfacerevealedwipes the frivolousmeaningscope
握着长矛的士兵掀开了面甲,干瘪的脸上露出一抹轻佻的意味。„Reallyhas not seensuchdistressedWitcher...... youto think that wears the clothing of people, will youreyesreturn tonormallike the chameleon?! Haha, freakisfreak!”Heexchanged a lookwithnumeroussoldier, immediatelyeruptsoneto laugh.
“真是没见过这么狼狈的猎魔人……你以为穿上人民的服装,你就眼睛就会像变色龙一样恢复正常?!哈哈,怪胎就是怪胎!”他与一众士兵交流了个眼神,顿时爆发出一阵哄笑。Thisteam of soldier, needto raise the head to look straight aheadtall and strongWitcher, buttheirdirections and ridicules, toare kneelingon the image planein the undergroundbase and lowbeggar.
这队士兵,需要抬起头才能直视魁梧的猎魔人,但他们的指指点点和嘲笑,就像面对着跪在地下卑微的乞丐。Lethowas without turning a hairto endureall, smiledenoughuntilsoldier.雷索面不改色忍受了一切,直到士兵们笑够了。„Good, said the subject, youarewantto mixentering a cityinside, your excellency?”
“好吧,说回正题,你是想要混进城里面吗,阁下?”„Whatismixes?” The big baldyknitting the browshead, „amn't Iaccepting the inspectionfrankly and uprightly? How...... doesn't EllanderwelcomeWitcher?”
“什么叫混进去?”光头大汉皱了皱眉头,“我不是光明正大地在接受检查?怎么……难道艾尔兰德不欢迎猎魔人?”„Thisdoes not have......, but, the Siris interestedinyouvery much, perhapsyoumustfirstseehim!”
“这倒没有……不过,有一位大人对你们很感兴趣,你恐怕得先去见见他!”„Is this legal rule of Ellander? Before entering the city, canseethatperson?”
“这是艾尔兰德的法律规定?入城之前必须去见那人?”„No, thisis the order.”
“不,这是命令。”„Brosses, belt/bringWitcheryour excellencyis waiting! TangGe, yougoesto callThalesKnight, said that...... said that he ‚longing for’ the fellowcame.”
“布罗斯,带这位猎魔人阁下去候着!唐格,你去把泰勒斯骑士叫过来,就说……就说他‘朝思暮想’的家伙来了。”„Wait!”Royturned backsuddenly, gatherssideWitcher, insoldiersurpriselookhisdeeplytook a deep breath.
“等等!”罗伊突然折返了回来,凑到猎魔人身边,在士兵诧异的眼神中他深深吸了一口气。„Iandheareonegroup.”
“我和他是一伙的。”„What! Isaidhave the issue,”soldiershot a look atLethosuddenly, satirizedexaggeratingly, „, thisWitcherpicked up the seniorold profession, abducted the youngster!”
“什么!我就说有问题,”士兵突然瞥了一眼雷索,夸张地讽刺道,“果然,这猎魔人又干起了老本行,诱拐少年!”„No, IamhisApprentice, in the future...... will also becomeWitcher.”
“不,我是他的学徒,未来……也将成为一个猎魔人。”
