05 Thorn's Army

CHAPTER 5 THORN'S ARMY "We need to warn Grey that Thorn's spies are headed to Valor Wood!" Skyla said. "We need to get out of here!" Tag shook his head. There was nowhere for them to go—not as long as the march of spies was right outside the tree. "We need to wait," Blaze agreed. Tag watched the prickle ants and crag beetles march past.

第五章索恩的军队“我们得警告格雷，索恩的间谍正前往英勇森林！”Skyla说。 “我们得离开这里！”泰格摇了摇头。 只要密探的队伍还在树外，他们就无处可去了。 “我们需要等待，”布雷兹同意道。 泰格看着刺蚁和岩甲虫从身边走过。

"What are prickle ants and crag beetles doing in The Shadowlands anyway?" Skyla asked. "I don't know," Tag replied. The last time they had seen the biting red prickle ants was in Valor Wood. And they had run into the crag beetles near the Whispering Oak. "It looks like Thorn has called all his spies to The Shadowlands—or to Valor Wood," Tag guessed. What is Thorn planning? he wondered. After a while, Tag peeked out of the tree hole again. "The army is gone," he told Skyla and Blaze.

“刺蚁和岩甲虫到底在暗影之地干什么？”Skyla问道。 “我不知道，”泰格回答。 他们上一次见到咬人的红刺蚁是在英勇森林。 他们在呓语橡树附近碰到了岩甲虫。 “看来索恩把他所有的间谍都叫到了暗影之地——或者说是英勇森林。”塔格猜测道。 索恩有什么计划？他想知道。 过了一会儿，泰格又从树洞往外偷看。 “军队走了。”他告诉斯凯拉和布雷兹。

"But the tiger bats and locusts could still be in the sky searching for us," Skyla warned. "And I'm sure The Shadow is still overhead." "We cannot wait any longer," Blaze said. "It's time." "Follow me," Tag agreed, climbing down inside the tree trunk. "Stay close to the bushes and trees so we won't be seen." The friends hurried away from the tree. Tag glanced up at the sky. Sure enough, the tiger bats were still circling above. Tag held his sack tight. All of a sudden, he bumped into something furry and very, very big!

“但虎蝠和蝗虫仍可能在空中搜寻我们，”斯凯拉警告说。 “我敢肯定影子还在头顶上。” “我们不能再等了，”布雷兹说。 “是时间。”“跟我来。”泰格同意了，爬下树干。 “靠近灌木丛和树木，这样我们就不会被发现。” 朋友们匆匆离开了树。 泰格抬头看了看天空。 果然，虎蝠还在上空盘旋。 泰格紧紧地抓着他的袋子。突然，他撞到了一个毛茸茸的东西，而且非常非常大！
