5 The end of Koshchey

Chapter 5 The end of Koshchey A gust of wind billowed under Prince Ivan's cloak. The Firebird's feather fluttered out, brushing his stony feet.

第五章科什奇的结局一阵狂风在伊凡王子的斗篷下翻腾。 火鸟的羽毛拍打着他的石头脚。

Warmth and feeling came back to his legs. He spotted the tree stump and raced over to it, while Silver Wolf leaped at Koshchey's face. Taken by surprise, the sorcerer struggled to defend himself. His creatures whirled helplessly around the fighting pair, like dead leaves in a December storm.

温暖和感觉又回到了他的腿上。 他发现了树桩，跑了过去，而银狼则扑向科什奇的脸。 巫师吃了一惊，挣扎着为自己辩护。 他的动物们无助地绕着这对打斗的情侣旋转，就像十二月暴风雨中的枯叶。

Meanwhile, Ivan reached inside the tree stump and found something hard-edged and heavy. He pulled out an iron-bound box, and opened it to find a gleaming golden egg.

与此同时，伊万把手伸进树桩里面，发现了一件边缘坚硬、很重的东西。 他拿出一个铁盒子，打开一看，里面是一只闪闪发光的金蛋。

Koshchey suddenly saw what the Prince had unearthed. His shriek of horror filled the sky. Ivan squeezed the egg, and Koshchey doubled up in pain. Then Ivan tossed the egg from one hand to the other. Koshchey was flung right across the garden, and Silver Wolf fell to the ground.

科什奇突然看到了王子挖出的东西。 他恐怖的尖叫响彻天空。 伊凡挤了挤鸡蛋，科什奇痛得弯下了腰。 然后伊凡把鸡蛋从一只手扔到另一只手上。 科什奇被扔到了花园的另一边，银狼也倒在了地上。

"Don't destroy it!" Koshchey screamed. "Take whatever you want!" But Ivan raised the egg high, and threw it to the ground where it smashed into pieces. A wisp of smoke rose from the fragments, and the sorcerer was gone.

“别毁了它！”Koshchey尖叫。 “想拿什么就拿什么！”但是伊凡把鸡蛋高高举起，扔到地上，鸡蛋碎成了碎片。 一缕烟雾从碎片中升起，巫师消失了。

For a moment, there was silence. Then Ivan and the princess heard a sound like ice cracking, and the murmuring of strange voices. All around the garden, the statues were coming back to life. They exclaimed in amazement, carefully stretching their stiff limbs.

片刻的沉默。 然后伊凡和公主听到了冰裂的声音，还有奇怪的说话声。 花园四周的雕像都复活了。 他们惊奇地叫了起来，小心地伸展着僵硬的四肢。
