After nearly four months returned to Border Town, Lotus also to have the new feeling once more. 时隔近四个月再次回到边陲镇,莲又有了新的感受。 This cities seem to be ordinary in unceasing growth, even if inundates the non- daylight the heavy snow day not to prevent its extension, on mounting the Scarlet Water bridge, this feeling specially is obvious. 这座城镇仿佛在不断成长一般,即使漫无天日的大雪天也没有阻止它的扩建,每逢登上赤水大桥时,这种感觉就特别明显。 Workshops are similar to the neat blocks, distributes south bank of the river bank, the opposite dock area grew the several fold to have, at any time can see is dragging the stone ship of black smoke on the river surface back and forth, blocked from the wave light clear river surface. 一栋栋厂房如同整齐的方块,排布在河畔南岸,对面的码头区则增长了数倍有余,任何时候都能看到许多拖着黑烟的石头船在河面上来来回回,把原本波光粼粼的河面都遮住了。 „Here is livelier than Sleeping Island,” Honey lies near the big bridge railing looks into the distance to, „person must like the ant.” “这里比沉睡岛热闹多了,”蜜糖趴在大桥栏杆边向下方眺望,“人多得就像蚂蚁一样。” „I also thought so,” remembers when the bridge just constructed, why she is puzzled Your Majesty to the bridge floor do so spaciously, felt that quite some waste materials, now looks like, this decision really just right. “我也这么觉得,”记得大桥刚建好时,她还不解为何陛下要把桥面做得如此宽敞,感觉颇有些浪费材料,现在看来,这个决定实在恰到好处。 The people of shuttle in both banks is continuous, once for a while some people will look at one toward them, as if to their appearance and appearances is very curious. 穿梭于两岸的人们络绎不绝,时不时有人会朝她俩望上一眼,似乎对她们的打扮和模样十分好奇。 If in other cities, Lotus estimated that must consider how should escape. 如果在其他城市,莲估计就得考虑该如何逃跑了。 Change that except that these then can see, improvements on many life. 除开这些一眼便能看到的变化,还有许多生活上的改善。 For example light listens to make people think that the nice and warm heating system, can bring the bright ray at night the electric lamp, as well as the new good food of substitution ice cream bread wait/etc....... These she can listen to Evelyn and Candlelight lecture one all day, but they most did not make Lotus be surprised. 例如光是听着就让人觉得暖烘烘的供暖系统,夜间也能带来明亮光芒的电灯、以及取代冰激凌面包的新美食等等……这些她能听伊芙琳和烛火讲上一整天,不过它们都不是最令莲感到惊讶的。 In fact, making her feel that what changes is biggest is relations between witch and average person. 事实上,让她觉得变化最大的是女巫和普通人之间的关系。 This point in tavern that can open from Evelyn looks. 这一点可以从伊芙琳开设的酒馆中看出来。 The tavern is invested by Witch Union, Evelyn is the shopkeeper and bartender, to patronize the Western Region's guest mixes the novel delicacy the liquor water, it is said this is also Your Majesty's idea-- makes the witches salary treat with it in the drawer suffers injustice, might as well take to do some business. 酒馆由女巫联盟出资,伊芙琳担任店长兼调酒师,为光顾西境的客人调配新奇美味的酒水,据说这也是陛下的主意——与其让女巫们的薪酬待在抽屉里不见天日,不如拿出来做些生意。 Lotus once received the invitation of Wendy, goes to there to drink two cups to ice Ping wine, the flavor is truly good, has the fragrance and mellowness that the ale does not have, is mixing with the rich fruit-flavor, abundantly presents in the transparent crystal glass cup the pure light-green, seems is quite attractive. Moreover the environment ordinary tavern like that noisy confusion, the guests basically do not sit on oneself table drink the conversation, the ground, table and drinking utensils clean up cleanly, if not behind the bar that rows of cask, she this place with the tavern will not link. 莲曾受温蒂的邀请,去那里喝过两杯冰镇苹果酒,味道确实不错,有着麦酒所不具备的醇香,又夹杂着浓郁的果味,盛在透明的水晶玻璃杯中呈现出洁净的浅绿色,看上去就颇为诱人。而且环境不似普通酒馆那般嘈杂混乱,客人们基本都坐在自己的桌位上喝酒交谈,地面、桌子和酒具清理得干干净净,如果不是吧台后面那一排排酒桶,她根本不会把这种地方和酒馆联系在一起。 Naturally, this is also related with not the poor liquor water price. 当然,这也跟不菲的酒水价格有关。 Evelyn stands before the bar, is the same with the ordinary shopkeeper with the guest talks, because nobody she will be witch makes noise to scold or scold, on the contrary also many outside merchants because of curiously and will come to drink specially. Lotus also little saw that she so smiles happy appearance-- to look, she truly very much likes this work. 伊芙琳就站在吧台前,和普通店长一样与客人交谈,没有人会因为她是女巫而出声呵斥或责骂,相反还有不少外地商人因为好奇而专程过来喝酒。莲也很少见到她笑得如此开心的模样——看得出来,她确实很喜欢这份工作。 Lotus remembers before oneself leave, majority of witch sphere of action basically in castle area, if needs to go out, generally will have the Your Majesty's guard to follow the protection, now they actually gradually integrated each part of cities. 莲记得自己离开之前,大部分女巫的活动范围基本都在城堡区以内,如果需要出门,一般会有陛下的侍卫跟随保护,现在她们却已经渐渐融入到城镇的每一个部分了。 The short winter, can make Western Region have the so big change, this makes people think really inconceivable. 短短一个冬天,就能让西境发生如此大的改变,这着实让人觉得不可思议。 But Wendy perhaps that talked in the night also makes her have deeper understanding-- this is witches of alliance is willing to pay all reasons for this reason. 而温蒂的那番夜谈也让她有了更深的认识——或许这便是联盟的女巫们愿意为此付出一切的原因。 Because they not only are Your Majesty Roland construct Neverwinter City , is constructing own homeland. 因为她们不光是在为罗兰陛下建设无冬城,也是在建设自己的家园。 „We walk,” Lotus pouts toward Honey, „, if smooth, today can complete the transformation of estuary.” “我们走吧,”莲朝蜜糖努努嘴,“如果顺利的话,今天就能完成出海口的改造了。” „Oh!” “噢！” ...... …… When the rock sinks to underground finally together, Lotus has wiped the thin perspiration on forehead, released a long breath. 当最后一块山石沉入地底,莲擦了擦额头上的细汗,长出了口气。 „Fierce,” Honey applauds saying that „you unexpectedly really starting out one said mountain ridge.” “厉害,”蜜糖鼓掌道,“你居然真把山岭给开出一条道来了。” On her top of the head treetop is squatting a row of bird also exudes chirp the cry. 她头顶树梢上蹲着的一排鸟儿也跟着发出叽叽喳喳的叫声。 „That naturally,” Lotus happily said with a smile, „did not have the matter that I could not accomplish.” “那当然,”莲得意地笑道,“就没有我办不到的事。” With surrounding the Sleeping Island's sea reef is different, here rock layer is much deeper, is much harder, therefore subsides to consume magic power. She does not need to turn into the flat land entire mountain ridge fortunately, plans according to Your Majesty's, only with opening one may supply 56 carriage parallel channels then. Had the experience of iron bridge, this time she does not think that again the so spacious path moves unnecessarily. 和包围沉睡岛的海礁不同,这里的岩层要深得多,也硬得多,所以沉降起来十分耗费魔力。还好她并不需要把整个山岭都变成平地,按照陛下的规划,只用开辟出一条可供56辆马车并行的通道即可。有了铁桥的经验,这次她不会再认为如此宽敞的道路是多此一举。 Because the hill is higher than more than 40 meters compared with the sea level, therefore quickest method, only then one, is little sinks the ground, finally turns into a long gentle slope. 由于丘陵比海面高出40多米,所以最快捷的方法只有一条,就是一点点把地面沉下去,最终变成一道长长的缓坡。 For the convenient carriage passes through, she also specially presses the straight road surface the surface rock, even if like this rains, will not form the water puddle that the depth varies. 为了方便马车通行,她还特意将表层的岩石压成平直的路面,这样即使下雨,也不会形成深浅不一的水洼。 Now so long as stands in the top of slope, can see the opposite golden yellow shoal and deep blue sea, the cool sea breeze wells up following the slopeway on, is mixing with a familiar salt taste. 现在只要站在坡顶,就能看到对面金黄色的浅滩和蔚蓝的大海,清凉的海风顺着坡道一涌而上,夹杂着一股熟悉的咸味。 „Do you bring the fire?” Honey hopping along arrives at side her. “你带火没？”蜜糖一蹦一跳地来到她身边。 „No, why can you?” “没有,你要干吗？” „Naturally is getting down grilled fish,” she smacks the lips, „I am responsible for attracting the fish, do you go against the water surface to be what kind of them? Has not brought the fire to be also good, exposed to the sun for two days to do thoroughly under Sun.” “当然是下去烤鱼啊,”她咂咂嘴,“我负责把鱼吸引过来,你把它们顶出水面怎么样？没带火也行,在太阳下晒上两天就干透了。” The bird of top of the head called happier. 头顶的鸟儿叫得更欢了。 Lotus showed the whites of the eyes, „I will not make here also be full of the fishy smell of salt fish! The words said when Sleeping Island you haven't been sick of eating that thing?” 莲翻了个白眼,“我才不会让这里也充满咸鱼的腥味！话说,在沉睡岛时你还没吃腻那玩意吗？” „Eh? I thought that also good,” Honey tilts the head said. “诶？我觉得还挺不错的耶,”蜜糖歪头道。 „In brief, here forbids to expose to the sun fish, moreover Your Majesty will not like the fishy smell of salt fish,” Lotus remembers Ash to come suddenly, does not know that she in Sleeping Island whether also receives various fish soup to puzzle, „I listened to Your Majesty saying that he planned to construct a harbor here, when such Lady Tilly wants to come to be able when to come, did not need to fly the mountain peak by the hot-air balloon.” “总之,这里禁止晒鱼,而且陛下也不会喜欢咸鱼的腥味的,”莲忽然想起灰烬来,不知道她在沉睡岛是否还受各种鱼汤所困扰,“我听陛下说,他打算在这里建造一座海港,这样提莉大人想什么时候来就能什么时候来,也不用靠热气球飞过山峰了。” Heard the name of Your Highness Tilly, the Honey attention is attracted immediately, „that...... Can she come?” 听到提莉殿下的名字,蜜糖的注意力立刻被吸引了,“那……她会过来吗？” The expression of little girl is simply easier to understand than the animal, Lotus has patted her fluffy hair, „I do not know, but Your Majesty must make war with Church immediately, she should be able to help her Elder Brother one.” 小姑娘的表情简直比动物还要好懂,莲拍了拍她蓬松的头发,“我不知道,不过陛下马上就要和教会开战,她应该会来帮她的哥哥一把吧。” Actually she also lacks self-confidence, especially knows after Blood Tooth Association and Hetty Morgan details , before--, she is quite always unhappy to these combat witch put on a high and mighty act manner, now looks like, they are also one group of pitiful people. 其实她心里也没底,特别是知道血牙会与赫蒂.摩根的底细后——以前她总对这些战斗女巫趾高气昂的态度颇为不喜,现在看来,她们也是一群可怜的人。 After slipping off the prejudice outer covering, actually they and do not have what difference. At least now, she and Iffy can also occasionally speak several words, but other combat witch on island so will not be definitely easy to be convinced by Tilly. 褪下偏见的外壳后,其实她们和自己并没有什么不同。至少现在,她和伊菲也能偶尔说上几句话了,但岛上的其他战斗女巫肯定不会这么容易被提莉说服。 „Oh, that was good!” “噢,那太好了！” Ok? This fellow knows nothing about the war radically, Lotus said in the unstated criticism at heart, if Lady Tilly is unable to solve the trouble of Blood Tooth Association, Church fully attacks Your Majesty Roland, that called the trouble. 太好了？这家伙对战争根本一无所知,莲在心里腹诽道,若是提莉大人无法解决血牙会的麻烦,教会这边又全力进攻罗兰陛下,那才叫麻烦。 However she also hopes that Lady Tilly can arrive at Border Town again. 不过她也希望提莉大人能再次来到边陲镇。 Moreover, best forever lives. 而且,最好是永远的住下来。 Like this she can realize-- in desire that the winter made 这样她在冬天许下的愿望才能实现—— " Then, oneself also good, other witch are also good, can happy lived in Border Town. " 「如此一来,自己也好,其他女巫也好,都能开心的在边陲镇生活了。」 ...... ……
