6 The fisherman's replies

Chapter 6 The fisherman's replies Edmond plunged into the icy water. He wriggled free of the sack, but he was dragged deeper by the cannonball attached to his legs. He felt as if his lungs were on fire. Then he remembered -the knife! He grabbed the blade from his pocket and cut the rope, freeing himself of the weight. He burst to the surface, but now a wave slammed him against a fishing boat tethered to the rocks. Exhausted, Edmond just managed to cling onto the side of the boat and haul himself up onto the deck.

第六章渔夫的回答爱德蒙跳进冰冷的水里。 他挣脱了麻袋，但他被绑在腿上的炮弹拖得更深了。 他觉得自己的肺好像着火了。 然后他想起来了——那把刀！他从口袋里抓起刀刃，割断绳子，使自己摆脱了重量。 他冲出水面，但这时一个波浪把他撞到了拴在岩石上的一艘渔船上。 爱德蒙筋疲力尽，只是设法抓住船舷，把自己拖到甲板上。

But there was no time to rest. Soon the guards would discover Edmond had escaped. With his last gasps of strength, he rowed and rowed until Chateau D'If was just a shadowy speck in the distance. Ahead, he could see lights glimmering on Marseilles' docks. Edmond had dreamed of his home for twenty years, but the sight gave him no joy. All he thought of was revenge. Another fishing boat passed. Edmond called to the captain. "I am headed to Marseilles to surprise an old friend. Do you know a man named Danglars?" "I did once," the fisherman replied. "But he moved to Paris. I hear he is a rich banker now, called Baron Danglars." "What about Fernand Mondego?"

但是没有时间休息。 卫兵很快就会发现爱德蒙逃走了。 他用尽最后的力气，划啊划，划啊划，直到伊夫堡变成远处一个黑影。 他可以看见前面马赛码头上闪烁的灯光。 二十年来，爱德蒙一直梦想着他的家，但这景象并没有给他带来快乐。 他满脑子想的都是复仇。 另一艘渔船经过。 爱德蒙向船长喊道。 “我要去马赛给一位老朋友一个惊喜。 你认识一个叫腾格拉尔的人吗？”“我做过一次，”渔夫回答。 “但他搬到了巴黎。我听说他现在是个富有的银行家，名叫腾格拉尔男爵。” “弗尔南多·蒙台哥怎么样？”

"He too is a rich man. He lives in Paris with his wife and son Albert." Edmond couldn't believe it. While he had been rotting in jail, his enemies had grown rich. "Do you know a girl named Mercedes?" he asked. "You are truly out of luck," the fisherman laughed. "She lives in Paris too. She is Fernand's wife." Edmond slumped to the deck. More than ever, he craved revenge. A plan was forming in his head. First he would go to Monte Cristo and find the Abbé's treasure. Then he would disguise himself as a rich noble like his enemies. He would enter their lives. And he would destroy them.

“他也是个有钱人。他和妻子、儿子阿尔伯特住在巴黎。” 爱德蒙简直不敢相信。 当他在监狱里腐烂的时候，他的敌人们却变得富有了。 “你认识一个叫梅塞苔丝的女孩吗？”他问。 “你真倒霉，”渔夫笑着说。 “她也住在巴黎。她是弗尔南多的妻子。” 爱德蒙瘫倒在甲板上。 他比以往任何时候都更渴望复仇。 他脑子里正在形成一个计划。 首先，他要到基督山去找修道院院长的宝藏。 然后他会像他的敌人一样伪装成一个富有的贵族。 他会进入他们的生活。 他会摧毁他们。
