15 ROYAL BLOCKHEAD

CHAPTER 15 ROYAL BLOCKHEAD The ice-crusher barreled down the mountain. Alexander, Rip, and Nikki waited in front of the fire pit. "Ready?" whispered Alexander. The monster pushed its fists into the ground like ski poles, picking up speed.

第十五章皇家笨蛋破冰机滚下山去了。 亚历山大、里普和尼基在火坑前等着。 “准备好了吗？”亚历山大小声说。 怪物把拳头像滑雪杖一样插在地上，加快了速度。

"I'm going to flatten you into baloney!" it roared. "NOW!" Alexander cried. The three friends dove to the side. The ice-crusher slammed on the brakes, but it was too late. The monster skidded to a stop, right in the middle of the bonfire. HISSSS!! A cloud of steam rose as flames flicked the monster's underside. "Ha!" said Rip. "Fire-safety Rule #1: Never sit on a fire!" But then: CRUNNNK!! The fire was gone. The flames had hardened into blue icicles.

“我要把你碾成香肠！”它吼道。 “现在!”亚历山大哭了。三个朋友躲到一边。 破冰船猛踩刹车，但为时已晚。 怪物在篝火中间滑了一下停了下来。 HISSSS ! !火焰轻拂着怪物的腹部，升起一团蒸汽。 “哈！”瑞普说。“防火安全规则1：永远不要坐在火上！”但是：嘎吱嘎吱！！火熄灭了。 火焰已凝固成蓝色的冰柱。

"Do you think a little campfire can stop me?!" The monster laughed so hard, icicles fell from its eyes. Then it picked up the frozen bonfire and wore it like a crown. "Silly meat-creatures! I freeze out the summer sun! I make it snow! Fire can't hurt me!" The ice-crusher pounded its fists together with a thunderous CLINK! The sound echoed through the mountains. "ARISE, MY MINIONS, AND FREEZE THOSE ANNOYING KIDS!" Hundreds of snombies shot up from the snow.

“你觉得一点营火就能阻止我吗？！”怪物笑得那么厉害，冰柱从它的眼睛里掉了下来。 然后它捡起冰冻的篝火，像戴王冠一样戴在头上。 “傻meat-creatures !我把夏天的太阳冻住了！我让它下雪了！火伤不了我！”破冰机捶打着拳头，发出雷鸣般的叮当声！那声音在山间回响。 “起来，我的仆从们，把那些讨厌的孩子们冻住！”数以百计的雪花从雪中飞了出来。

"To the canoe!" Alexander yelled. They ran loops all around the snombies, and dove behind the smashed-up canoe. Heads spinning, the snowmen turned and twirled into one another like bumper cars. "Make way, snow-for-brains!" hissed the ice-crusher. "The warm-bloods are hiding behind that canoe! I can hear them skittering around!" The ice-crusher slid over to the splintered canoe, and plucked it from the salt pile.

“到独木舟那儿去！”亚历山大喊道。 他们绕着侏儒们跑了一圈，躲在被撞坏的独木舟后面。 雪人的头旋转着，像碰碰车一样旋转着。 “让一让，脑子里的雪！”破冰机嘶嘶地说。 “温血动物躲在独木舟后面！”我能听到它们在周围蹦蹦跳跳！”破冰机滑到破碎的独木舟旁，把它从盐堆里捞了出来。

Three white, roundish figures stood behind the canoe. They had no arms and no faces. One wore a floppy yellow hat. The ice-crusher grinned, flashing a mouthful of jagged, icy teeth. "Oh!" said the monster. "Nice work, snombies! You turned these pesky campers into kid-pops after all." The ice-crusher cracked its knuckles. It pounded the white, roundish figures into flat lumps. And then it swallowed them.

三个白色的圆滚滚的身影站在独木舟后面。 他们没有胳膊，没有脸。 其中一个戴着一顶松软的黄色帽子。 碎冰工咧嘴一笑，露出一口参差不齐的冰牙。 “哦！”怪物说。“干得好，瞌睡虫们！”你把这些讨厌的露营者变成了小孩子。” 破冰机的关节折断了。 它把白色的圆形人物捣成扁平的块状。 然后它把它们吞了下去。
