01 The Long Journey

CHAPTER 1 THE LONG JOURNEY Tag, Skyla, and Blaze sat on a rock in a patch of grass. They ate the last of their fruit and nuts. Claw stood in front of them, walking back and forth. "We need to get moving," Claw said. "We have a long way to go before we reach the Golden Temple."

第一章长途旅行泰格、斯盖拉和布雷克坐在一块草地上的一块岩石上。 他们吃光了最后的水果和坚果。 爪子站在他们面前，走来走去。 “我们得走了。”克劳说。 “我们要走很长一段路才能到达金庙。”

"How far away is it?" Blaze asked. "A few hours, at least," Claw replied. "The temple is hidden within a thick jungle. It is very hard to find." Tag turned his back to peek inside his sack. The Ember Stone and the golden feathers were still safe inside. He turned back to Claw. "Are you sure you know the way?" Tag asked. "Yes," Claw said. "But it has been a long time since I last saw the firehawks. If they do not want to be found, it may be impossible to find them. Unless— "Unless what?" Skyla asked, tucking her slingshot into her armor.

“有多远？”大火问道。 “至少几个小时吧。”克劳回答。 “寺庙隐藏在茂密的丛林中。 这很难找到。”泰格转过身去偷看他的口袋。 余烬之石和金羽毛还安然无恙。 他转向克劳。“你肯定认识路吗？”标签要求。 “是的。”克劳说。“但是我已经很久没有看到火鹰了。 如果他们不想被发现，那就不可能找到他们。 除非——“除非什么？”斯凯拉问道，把弹弓塞进了她的盔甲里。

"Unless you have any clues?" Claw said slowly, looking at Tag's sack. Tag shook his head quickly. "Our only clue is what you've told us about the Golden Temple. That's why we need your help, Claw." Claw nodded. "Well, if you've finished eating, we should continue on," he said. He walked off into the trees. "Shouldn't we fly?" Blaze called out, hurrying to catch up. "It is better if we go on foot," Claw replied. "The jungle is very overgrown. We won't be able to spot the Golden Temple from the sky.

“除非你有什么线索？”克劳看着泰格的袋子，慢慢地说。 泰格迅速摇了摇头。 “我们唯一的线索就是你告诉我们的关于金庙的事。 所以我们才需要你的帮助，克劳。” 爪点了点头。“好吧，如果你吃完了，我们应该继续，”他说。 他走进树林。 “我们不应该坐飞机吗？”烈焰喊道，急忙追了上去。 “我们最好步行去。”克劳回答。 “丛林里杂草丛生。 我们无法从空中看到金庙。

They walked on through the Cloud Kingdom. In the distance, Tag saw the Rainbow Waterfall, where Blaze had been taken by the giant birds. The friends soon reached a wide stream. It sparkled different shades of blue. "Oh no!" Tag said, remembering they had been here before. "Watch out for the snappy fish!"

他们继续穿过云王国。 在远处，泰格看到了彩虹瀑布，布雷兹就是在那里被巨鸟抓走的。 朋友们很快来到一条宽阔的小溪边。 它闪烁着深浅不一的蓝色光芒。 “哦,不!”泰格说，想起他们以前来过这里。 “小心那些活泼的鱼！”

Then a large fish leaped from the water! It snapped its sharp teeth at Blaze. "Aghhhh!" Blaze yelled, stepping back. "This is Snappers Stream," Claw told them. "Be careful. Those fish bite!" "I remember," said Skyla, gripping her tail tightly. She jumped onto Blaze's back.

然后一条大鱼从水里跳了出来！它用锋利的牙齿咬Blaze。 “Aghhhh !”火焰喊道，后退了几步。 “这里是鲷鱼溪。”克劳告诉他们。 “小心些而已。那些鱼会咬人！”“我记得，”斯盖拉说，紧紧抓住她的尾巴。 她跳到布雷兹的背上。

The friends flew over the hungry fish in Snappers Stream and landed on the other side. "Phew," Tag said. "I'm glad we flew across this time." Suddenly, a loud hum filled the air. In the sky, heading right for them, was a cloud of angry-looking bugs.

朋友们飞过斯内普溪里饥饿的鱼儿，降落在河的另一边。 “呸，”泰格说。“我很高兴这次我们飞过来了。” 突然，空气中充满了巨大的嗡嗡声。 天空中，一群愤怒的虫子正朝他们飞来。
