5 Bully Beware

CHAPTER 5

第五章

Bully Beware When the doors opened again, everyone stared in wonder. Before the knights stood Trellis, an entire city built in the midst of the treetops! A castle made of hand-carved wood, with many towers, stood in the center of Trellis. The top of each tower had the dental work of a jack-'o-lantern smile with every other tooth missing. Spires shingled in bark pointed to the sky. Everything had been built with things found in the forest.

当门再次打开时，每个人都惊奇地盯着看。 骑士们面前矗立着格里利斯，一座建在树梢中间的城市！一座由手工雕刻的木头建造的城堡，有许多塔楼，矗立在格雷斯的中心。 每个塔的顶部都有一个杰克灯微笑的牙齿，其他牙齿都不见了。 用树皮砌成的尖顶直指天空。 所有的东西都是用在森林里找到的东西建造的。

Tree houses lined the village streets. Some had a branch growing right through the middle of the home. All the houses had flower boxes that spilled over with colorful blooms. Everything in the city was connected by bridges and wooden walkways. Street vendors sold nuts, berries, and vegetables along the sides. Lucas whistled in wonder. "Trellis is magical," he commented. "Like the world's biggest tree fort." Sir Desdan rolled his eyes to let Lucas know his comment was childish and unknightly. But Dame Laurel winked at the children. "Trellis is enchanting."

树屋排列在村庄的街道两旁。 有些人的树枝正好穿过房子的中央。 所有的房子都有花箱，里面堆满了五颜六色的花朵。 城市里的一切都由桥和木栈道连接起来。 沿街叫卖坚果、浆果和蔬菜的小贩。 卢卡斯惊奇地吹了声口哨。“Trellis很神奇，”他评论道。 “就像世界上最大的树堡。” 德斯丹爵士翻了个白眼，让卢卡斯知道他的评论很幼稚，很不绅士。 但劳雷尔夫人对孩子们眨了眨眼睛。 “格里斯很迷人。”

She led the team to the castle, where they each had a room. The knights settled in to rest for tomorrow's mission. But Lucas, Clara, and Ruskin set out to explore the village. As they walked along the bridges and walkways, they heard a ruckus up ahead. Two kids had tripped another boy, who tumbled into a fruit cart, knocking it over. Strawberries, blueberries, and blackberries speckled the road.

她带领队伍来到城堡，每个人都有一个房间。 骑士们坐下来休息，准备明天的任务。 但卢卡斯，克拉拉和罗斯金开始探索这个村庄。 当他们沿着桥和人行道走的时候，他们听到前面有一阵骚动。 两个孩子绊倒了另一个男孩，那个男孩摔倒在一辆水果车上，把它撞倒了。 路上点缀着草莓、蓝莓和黑莓。
