Chapter 14 GREETINGS FROM THE NETHER! A BAD PLACE TO VISIT, A TERRIBLE PLACE TO LIVE! Po watched as his friends Harper and Ash disappeared into the Nether. "I hope they don't run into any trouble," he said. "Right now, we have to focus on the trouble in this dimension," said Morgan. "I hope your plan works." "Hey, guess what?" Po said. "Me too!" "I CAN HEAR THE PIGMEN," Jodi warned. "They're just around the corner." "We should lead them away from the portal," Morgan said. "Just in case."

第十四章来自阴间的问候！一个糟糕的地方参观，一个可怕的地方生活！阿宝看着他的朋友哈珀和阿什消失在地狱里。 “我希望他们不要遇到任何麻烦，”他说。 “现在，我们必须关注这方面的问题，”摩根说。 “我希望你的计划能奏效。”“嘿，你猜怎么着？”阿宝说。 “我也是!”“我能听到猪人的声音。”乔迪警告说。 “他们就在附近。” “我们应该带他们离开传送门。”摩根说。 “以防万一。”

Po nodded. "LET'S DO THIS!" As soon as he rounded the corner, Po saw that the next room was full of zombie pigmen. But they made no move to attack. They seemed to have given up the chase as soon as Harper had disappeared. "WHEW," he said. "Harper was right." Then Morgan shoved him—just as a fireball came crashing to the ground. "Up there!" Jodi cried. And Po saw the ghast hovering in a far corner of the room. "Okay," Po said. "JUST LIKE WE PLANNED. RUN!" Po took off running. He went in a circle around the edges of the room. Morgan ran in the opposite direction, while Jodi weaved all around the peaceful

阿宝点点头。“我们开始吧！”刚转过拐角，阿宝就看到隔壁房间里全是僵尸猪人。 但是他们没有进攻。 哈珀一消失，他们似乎就放弃了追捕。 “哇，”他说。“哈珀是对的。” 然后摩根推了他一下——就在这时，一个火球轰然坠地。 “那里!”乔迪•哭了。阿宝看见鬼魂在房间的一个角落里徘徊。 “好吧，”阿宝说。“就像我们计划的那样。 快跑!”阿宝拔腿就跑。 他绕着房间的边缘转了一圈。 摩根朝相反的方向跑去，而乔迪则在平静的周围迂回

pigmen. The ghast appeared confused by all the movement. It followed Jodi for a moment but drifted the other way when it caught sight of Morgan. It uttered a spine-chilling scream that sounded to Po like the cry of an angry cat. Then it shot another fireball just as Po and Morgan passed each other. They were moving too fast. The fireball missed them entirely. It hit a zombie pigman instead. The pigman burst into flames. And all the other pigmen turned angrily toward the ghast. "Oh man," Po said. "THAT THING IS TOAST." "Jodi!" Morgan cried. "Let's get out of here!" As they fled the room, chaos erupted. The pigmen swarmed the ghast, which launched fireballs in rapid succession to defend itself. The ghast was far stronger. But there were too many pigmen. There was no way the ghast could win.

pigmen。幽灵似乎被所有的动作弄糊涂了。 它跟着乔迪走了一会儿，但当它看到摩根时，就向另一个方向漂移了。 它发出一声令人毛骨悚然的尖叫，阿宝听起来就像一只愤怒的猫在叫。 就在阿宝和摩根擦肩而过的时候，它又发射了一个火球。 他们走得太快了。 火球完全没有击中他们。 它击中了一个僵尸猪人。 猪人突然燃烧起来。 所有其他的猪人都愤怒地转向幽灵。 “天哪，”阿宝说。“那东西完蛋了。” “乔迪- !”摩根哭了。“我们离开这里吧！”当他们逃离房间时，混乱爆发了。 猪人蜂拥而至，幽灵迅速连续发射火球自卫。 幽灵要强大得多。 但是那里的猪人太多了。 幽灵是不可能赢的。

Morgan, Po, and Jodi hurried back to the room with the portal. Though the sounds of battle raged on, no mobs followed them. Morgan breathed a loud sigh of relief, and Jodi cheered. "Po, it worked!" she said.

摩根、阿宝和乔迪赶紧带着传送门回到房间。 虽然战斗的声音还在继续，但没有暴徒跟着他们。 摩根松了一口气，乔迪欢呼起来。 “阿宝，成功了！”她说。

"NOT THAT BATTLING ENDLESS MOBS DANGEROUS MONSTERS ISN'T FUN," Po said, taking a few breaths. "But I'm more than happy to let the pigmen do the hard part for us." "THE OTHERS AREN'T BACK YET," Morgan said. "Should we go after them?" Before Po or Jodi could respond, Harper and Ash poked their heads through the portal. "Everything good in this dimension?" Ash asked.

“并不是说和无尽的暴徒、危险的怪物战斗不好玩，”阿宝说着，吸了几口气。 “但我非常乐意让猪人帮我们做最难的部分。” “其他人还没回来，”摩根说。 “我们应该去追他们吗？”阿宝和乔迪还没来得及回应，哈珀和阿什就从传送门探出头来。 “这个空间里一切都好吗？”灰问道。

"All clear," Po confirmed. "Good," said Harper. "BECAUSE YOU GUYS ARE GOING TO WANT TO SEE THIS." The Nether was every bit as frightening as Po had expected. The rocky terrain was uneven and surrounded with glowing, viciously hot lava. Everything was the color of old blood. "This place gives me the creeps," Po said. "That makes sense," Ash said. "It's not at all like home." "Or is it?" Harper asked. She gestured toward the edge of a cliff. "Look down there." Po and the others peered over the edge. His jaw dropped at what he saw below. Minecraft was for building. Everybody knew that. Given enough time and the right materials, a person could build pretty much anything here. A castle. A spaceport. Even a school. "IS THAT…WOODSWORD MIDDLE

“安全了。”阿宝确认道。 “很好。”哈帕说。“因为你们肯定想看这个。” 尼瑟斯和阿宝预料的一样可怕。 岩石地形凹凸不平，周围是炽热的岩浆。 一切都是古老血液的颜色。 “这个地方让我浑身起鸡皮疙瘩，”阿宝说。 “这说得通，”阿什说。 “一点也不像在家里。” “是吗？”哈珀问道。她朝悬崖边缘做了个手势。 “往下看。”阿宝和其他人从边缘往下看。 看到下面的情景，他惊呆了。 《我的世界》是用于建造的。 每个人都知道。只要有足够的时间和合适的材料，人们几乎可以在这里建造任何东西。 一座城堡。宇航中心。甚至是学校。 “那是……木剑中间。
