6 Snowball!

CHAPTER 6

第六章

Snowball! The wagon bumped along the dirt road to Flatfrost. Clara and Ruskin rode in the back, and Lucas sat up front with Stefan. Stefan patted the prince on the back. "This trip will be good for you," he said. "What makes you think so?" mumbled Lucas. "Because it will help you grow into a better person," Stefan replied.

雪球!马车沿着土路颠簸着驶往弗拉弗罗斯特。 克拉拉和罗斯金坐在后面，卢卡斯和斯戴芬坐在前面。 斯戴芬拍了拍王子的背。 “这次旅行对你有好处，”他说。 “你怎么这么想？”卢卡斯咕哝道。 “因为这会帮助你成长为一个更好的人，”斯戴芬回答。

"But what about Ruskin?" asked Lucas. "Ruskin will grow too," said Stefan. "And what if he doesn't? Then he'll have to go to Crestwood for training." "He'll come back," said Stefan. "But what if he can't be trained?" questioned Lucas. "Ruskin can be stubborn. He doesn't always listen to commands."

“那罗斯金呢？”卢卡斯问。 “罗斯金也会长出来。”斯戴芬说。 “如果他没有呢？”然后他就得去克雷斯伍德受训了。” “他会回来的。”斯戴芬说。 “但如果他不能训练呢？”卢卡斯问。 罗斯金有时很固执。他不总是听命令。”

"Tell me, how many dragons have you trained?" asked Stefan. "None." "Exactly," said Stefan. "But André and Grom have trained dozens of dragons." "But not scarlet dragons," Lucas protested.

“告诉我，你训练了多少条龙？”斯戴芬问道。 “没有。”“没错。”斯戴芬说。 “但是安德烈和格罗姆已经训练了几十条龙。” “但不是红龙，”卢卡斯抗议道。

"True," Stefan said. "But they'll do their best, and you must do your best to correct your own mistakes." "I know, I know," Lucas said. Soon they arrived at a stable at the bottom of a mountain. Snowflakes drifted from the gray sky. They changed into their warm fur clothes and transferred the supplies from the wagon to a sled. Stefan cracked a whip, and the horses began to head up the mountain. Lucas and Clara watched snowflakes land on their mittens.

“没错。”斯戴芬说。“但是他们会尽力的，你也必须尽力改正自己的错误。” “我知道，我知道，”卢卡斯说。 不久，他们来到了山脚下的一个马厩。 雪花从灰色的天空飘下。 他们换上暖和的毛皮衣服，把补给品从马车上搬到雪橇上。 斯戴芬啪的一声抽了鞭子，马开始向山上跑去。 卢卡斯和克拉拉看着雪花落在他们的手套上。
