12 LOOK OUT BELOW

CHAPTER 12 LOOK OUT BELOW DING-DING-DING！ Cap'n Putterbeard rang a bell mounted on the wall. "Grab your putters, mateys! It's golf time!" he shouted. The partygoers followed him downstairs. "So what's the plan, Salamander?" asked Nikki. "I guess we pretend to play mini-golf while we search for the monster," said Alexander. "We'll start at the windmill—" He froze. "Rip, your ears are blue again!" "Nuts!" said Rip. He clamped his hands over his ears.

第十二章往下看，叮叮叮！推杆胡子船长摇了摇挂在墙上的铃。 “拿起你们的推杆，伙计们！”高尔夫时间到了！”他喊道。 参加聚会的人跟着他下了楼。 “那你的计划是什么，蝾螈？”尼基问。 亚历山大说：“我想我们在寻找怪物的时候假装打迷你高尔夫吧。” “我们从风车开始——”他僵住了。 “哎哟，你的耳朵又蓝了！”“疯子！”瑞普说。 他用双手捂住耳朵。

"You must be allergic to all cupcakes," said Nikki. "You shouldn't have eaten the whole thing. Yesterday, you were splotchy from just one bite!" "I'm sure I'll get better," he said. "Like yesterday." The golfers split up. Alexander, Rip, and Nikki were grouped together, while Dottie played with her cousins. Alexander's group ran from hole to hole, looking for clues. Rip saw something brown and shaggy in the cave at hole #7, but it was just a fake gorilla.

“你一定对所有的纸杯蛋糕都过敏，”妮基说。 “你不应该把整个都吃了。 昨天，你只被咬了一口就满身是斑！”“我相信我会好起来的，”他说。 “就像昨天。”高尔夫球手们分开了。 亚历山大、里普和尼基聚在一起，多蒂和她的表兄妹们一起玩。 亚历山大的队伍从一个洞跑到另一个洞，寻找线索。 瑞普在7号洞的洞穴里看到了一个棕色的、毛茸茸的东西，但那只是一只假的大猩猩。

Nikki slipped on a snot-puddle near the anchor at hole #10. "Looks like we're getting warmer!" she said. "...and stinkier," said Rip. "This lagoon is a dump!" HOO-RONNNNNK!!! "Another honk!" said Alexander. Nikki checked the treasure map. "It came from the python pit at hole #12!" "No way," said Rip, yanking the map away. "It came from that giant telescope at hole #13!" "Incoming!" said a voice. PLOP! A purple golf ball landed in the snot puddle.

妮基在10号洞锚边的水坑上滑倒了。 “看来我们越来越暖和了！”她说。 “…而且更臭，”瑞普说。 “这个泻湖就是个垃圾场！”HOO-RONNNNNK ! !“又是喇叭声！”亚历山大说。 妮基查看了藏宝图。 “它来自12号洞的蟒蛇坑！”“不可能。”里普说着，猛地把地图拽了过去。 “它来自13号洞的那个巨大望远镜！”“来了！”一个声音说。 扑通一声地!一个紫色的高尔夫球落在了水坑里。

"Oh, hey!" Dottie hopped across the bridge and picked up her ball. "Are you having fun?" she asked. HOO-RONNNNNK!!! The honk startled Alexander, Rip, and Nikki. But Dottie kept smiling. "Didn't you hear that?" asked Rip. "Hear what?" asked Dottie. "The monster!" cried Alexander. He pointed to the treasure chest up on the dam. The huge, shaggy beast stood beside the chest. It had big round eyes, and a snout like a pig. It snorted angrily and FWOP! —seven more noses popped out of its body.

“哦,嘿!”多蒂跳过桥，捡起她的球。 “你玩得开心吗？”她问。 HOO-RONNNNNK ! !铃声把亚历山大、里普和尼基吓了一跳。 但多蒂一直在微笑。“你没听见吗？”瑞普问。 “听到什么？”多蒂问。 “怪物！”亚历山大叫道。 他指着大坝上的宝箱。 那只毛茸茸的巨兽站在箱子旁边。 它有一双又大又圆的眼睛，还有一个像猪一样的鼻子。 它生气地哼了一声，噗！——又有七个鼻子从它身上冒了出来。
