6 REST IN PIECES

CHAPTER 6 REST IN PIECES With a gravelly grunt, the monster swung its heavy tail. PLOMFFFFF! The stone reptile smashed Elmer Mooselidge's gravestone into a million pebbles. "It's a rockodile!" shouted Alexander. "Split up!" The friends took off in different directions.

第六章碎尸万段怪物发出一声沙哑的咕噜声，摇晃着沉重的尾巴。 PLOMFFFFF !石头爬行动物把埃尔默·穆斯里奇的墓碑砸成了一百万颗鹅卵石。 “这是一只岩石蜥蜴！”亚历山大喊道。 “分手!”朋友们朝不同的方向飞去了。

The rockodile turned in place like a board game spinner. Its snout pointed to Alexander. Then it tromped after him, its jaws wide open. "How do we beat this boulder-brain?!" shouted Rip, clambering up a tree. PIT-PIT-PAT! Rain began to fall. Alexander tried to remember the ROCKODILE pages of the notebook.

那只岩龟原地转动，就像棋盘游戏中的转轮。 它的鼻子指向亚历山大。 然后，它张大嘴巴，在他后面猛踩。 “我们怎么才能打败这个大脑瓜？！”瑞普一边爬上一棵树，一边喊道。 PIT-PIT-PAT !开始下雨了。 亚历山大试图回忆起笔记本上那几页岩石般的文字。

ROCKODILE stone reptile HABITAT surrounded by things made of stone. DIET Aquarium sand BEHAVIOR Good news. This monster won't eat you with its powerful jaws! Bad news. Instead, it will grind you into gravel. Just for fun.

石质爬行动物栖息在石质物体周围。 饮食水族馆沙子行为好消息。 这个怪物不会用它有力的下颚吃掉你的！坏消息。 相反，它会把你磨成碎石。 只是为了好玩。

WHAM! The rockodile's sledgehammer tail can smash boulders. FUN FACT! The rockodile got its name because it loves the electric guitar WARNING! You'd need heavy equipment-like a wrecking ball-to demolish a rockodile.

哇!岩龟大锤般的尾巴可以击碎巨石。 有趣的事实!岩蜥蜴之所以得名，是因为它喜欢电吉他！你需要重型设备——比如破碎球——来摧毁一只岩蜈蚣。

"We need a wrecking ball!" Alexander yelled. CLOMP! The monster's powerful jaws snapped at Alexander's heels. "How about a smashy-smashy monster?" yelled Rip. "That could work!" Alexander called back. He ran left— then right. The rockodile's twisty body easily kept up, smashing graves along the way. "I WILL SNAP YOU TO BITS!" roared the rockodile. Its voice sounded like two bricks scraping together. "JUST LIKE THE BOSS- MONSTER ORDERED!" "You know the boss-monster?" Nikki asked, popping up from behind a grave. "That's just the creature we're looking for!" The rain was falling harder now, and the ground was slippery with mud.

“我们需要一个破碎机！”亚历山大喊道。 重踏着走!那怪物有力的下颚咬住了亚历山大的脚跟。 “来个粉碎怪物怎么样？”里普喊道。 “那可行！”亚历山大回叫道。 他向左跑，然后向右跑。 这只岩龟弯曲的身体很容易跟上，一路上把坟墓砸得粉碎。 “我要把你撕成碎片！” 它的声音听起来像两块砖擦在一起。 “就像老板——怪物命令的那样！”“你知道那个怪物老板吗？”妮基从坟墓后面跳出来问道。 “这正是我们要找的东西！”雨下得更大了，地上满是泥，很滑。

Nikki slipped and fell. The rockodile sprung toward her. "Smashy smashy!" yelled Rip. He popped a chocolate-chunk cookie into his mouth, jumped down, and transformed before his boots hit the ground.

妮基滑倒了。那只岩石蜥蜴向她跳了过来。 “噼里啪啦！” 他把一块巧克力块饼干塞进嘴里，跳下来，在靴子落地之前变身。
