6 Holy Twinklenuts!

CHAPTER SIX Holy Twinklenuts! Wiggy was a well-mannered badger, so he immediately stood up and dusted himself down. 'Wigthorpe Barrington Mario Sinclair, though everyone calls me Wiggy. DELIGHTED to make your acquaintance, sir!' He took Sebastian Silver's paw in his own and pumped it up and down vigorously. 'Charmed,' said Sebastian Silver, gently pulling his arm away. Ted's mouth hung open. 'It's you!' he said. 'You're him! I met you, like, yesterday!' Sebastian Silver looked down at Ted, frowning. Then he quickly gave a big grin. 'Oh yes!' he said. 'So, you somehow found your way over to Twinklenuts, eh? All the way from that funny little place you live in. Well, how wonderful to have you here.' Willow shoved herself in front of Sebastian and held out a stout paw. 'I'm Willow,' she said. 'I'm very cool and brilliant but don't ever call me cute, all right?'

第六章神圣的甜甜圈!威吉是一只彬彬有礼的獾,所以他立刻站起来,掸去身上的灰尘。 “威格索普·巴林顿·马里奥·辛克莱,虽然大家都叫我威格。 很高兴认识您,先生!”他把塞巴斯蒂安·西尔弗的爪子握在自己手里,使劲上下抽着。 “被迷住了。”塞巴斯蒂安·西尔弗说着,轻轻地把他的胳膊抽了回来。 泰德张着嘴。“是你!”他说。 “你他!我好像昨天才见过你!”塞巴斯蒂安·西尔弗低头看着泰德,皱着眉头。 然后他迅速地咧嘴一笑。 “哦,是的!他说。“那么,你不知怎么找到了去Twinklenuts的路,嗯?” 从你住的那个有趣的小地方过来。 你能来真是太好了。”威洛挤到塞巴斯蒂安面前,伸出一只粗壮的爪子。 “我是威洛,”她说。“我很酷,很聪明,但永远不要说我可爱,好吗?”

Sebastian chuckled and gave a small bow. 'I wouldn't dream of it,' he said. 'Remind me, what's your little patch called again? Grizzletown, was it?' 'Grimwood,' said Wiggy. 'We're right next door to you!' said Willow. 'We've had the Swamp of Despair between us all this time. But thanks to my GREAT idea, we managed to bounce across it! YAY ME.' She beamed proudly. Sebastian Silver was quiet for a moment. 'I see,' he said after a while. 'And indeed, "Yay, you", little bunny. Do you know, in all this time, I didn't know anyone actually lived there. Anyway! Let me show you around my humble little home.' He led them through a cluster of trees, up a grassy bank and down a peaceful footpath. His shiny tail swished as he walked and the silver streaks in his fur flashed in the sunshine, looking very fancy. 'Welcome to Twinklenuts!' said Sebastian Silver, and he stretched out his arms. Ted, Nancy, Willow and Wiggy stood in silence and stared. It was so pretty. They looked upon a lush, green field, with flowers sprinkled through the grass. At one end of the field was a huge white tent, decorated with rainbow bunting. And at the other was a tall pole, with loads of colourful ribbons hanging off it. In the middle of the field was a small bonfire, surrounded by wooden toadstools, logs and picnic tables. Strings of fairy lights were draped over the trees. Small candles flickered in lanterns. And everywhere they looked, animals with shiny fur and bright eyes were feasting, dancing, singing and laughing.

塞巴斯蒂安咯咯地笑着,微微鞠了一躬。 “我做梦也想不到,”他说。 “再提醒我一次,你的小地方叫什么?” 格瑞兹敦,是吗?“格里姆伍德。” “我们就在你隔壁!”威罗说。 “我们之间一直隔着绝望沼泽。 但多亏了我的好主意,我们成功地越过了它!耶我。”她骄傲地笑了。 塞巴斯蒂安·西尔弗沉默了一会儿。 “我明白了,”过了一会儿他说。 当然,“耶,你”,小兔子。 你知道吗,这么长时间以来,我都不知道有人住在那里。 无论如何!让我带你参观一下我简陋的小家吧。”他领着他们穿过一丛树,上了长满草的河岸,走下一条宁静的小路。 他走着走着,闪亮的尾巴嗖嗖作响,皮毛上的银色条纹在阳光下闪闪发光,看起来很花哨。 “欢迎来到Twinklenuts!”塞巴斯蒂安·西尔弗说着,伸出了双臂。 泰德、南希、威洛和威格静静地站在那里,盯着看。 它是如此美丽。他们看到一片郁郁葱葱的田野,草地上点缀着鲜花。 在田野的一端有一个巨大的白色帐篷,上面装饰着彩虹旗。 另一边是一根高高的杆子,杆子上挂着许多五颜六色的丝带。 在田野的中央有一个小篝火,周围是木制的毒菌、原木和野餐桌。 一串串的彩灯挂在树上。 小蜡烛在灯笼里闪烁。 放眼望去,到处都是皮毛闪亮、眼睛明亮的动物在大吃大喝、跳舞、唱歌、大笑。

This place sounds like a dreeeeeam! Any room for a tap-dancing woodlouse?

这个地方听起来像个美梦!有地方给跳踢踏舞的木头房子吗?

'Holy moly!' said Ted, jumping up and down on the spot. Rugs and beanbags were scattered under the branches of a large oak tree. Animals were lounging on them, snoozing or sipping drinks and having paw massages. Butterflies flapped around, telling each other jokes and laughing. It was perfect. A hare in a wispy dress was standing on a small stage near the bonfire, playing the guitar. A crowd had gathered around her and were swaying their paws in the air as she sang. 'That's Anoushka Wispy,' sighed Sebastian Silver. 'She's so talented. We have concerts here every day, you know.' 'Wow!' gasped Ted and Willow.

“神圣的魔草!泰德说着,当场跳上跳下。 地毯和豆袋散落在一棵大橡树的树枝下。 动物们懒洋洋地躺在上面,打盹或喝着饮料,给他们按摩爪子。 蝴蝶飞舞着,互相讲着笑话,哈哈大笑。 这是完美的。一只穿着纤细衣服的兔子站在篝火旁的一个小舞台上弹着吉他。 一群人围着她,在她唱歌的时候,他们在空中挥舞着爪子。 “那是阿努什卡·维斯皮,”塞巴斯蒂安·西尔弗叹了口气。 “她很有才华。你知道,我们每天都在这里开音乐会。“哇!泰德和威罗喘着气说。

'There's also an absolutely darling little theatre over the way,' said Sebastian. 'I suppose you have a theatre too?' Ted and Willow looked at each other nervously. 'Um,' said Ted. 'Kind of.' 'How long have you lot been here for?' barked Nancy. 'Oh, forever,' said Sebastian Silver. 'You'll find Twinklenuts Forest on maps from centuries ago.' Nancy grunted. 'Grimwood not on any of these old maps, then?' she said. Sebastian turned to look at Nancy properly. A strange smile danced around his lips. It looked sort of friendly, but also sort of not. Nancy was no fool. She had seen that kind of smile before. 'Not that I'm aware of,' he said. 'But I will double-check, young lady. I honestly thought it was just, you know, wasteland. Rubbish, filth and emptiness. I am SHOCKED to discover that it could be anybody's actual home.' Nancy frowned. Willow bounced between them and clutched the hem of Sebastian's smart jacket. 'Is there more?' she shrieked. 'Please show us more! I'm going out of my MIIIIIIIND!' Sebastian laughed. 'Of course!' he said. 'You must see the Crystal Lake.'

“那边还有一家非常可爱的小剧院,”塞巴斯蒂安说。 “我想你们也有剧院吧? ”泰德和威洛紧张地面面相觑。 “嗯,”泰德说。”的。“你们在这儿多久了?”南希吼道。 “哦,永远,”塞巴斯蒂安·西尔弗说。 “你会在几个世纪前的地图上找到闪烁森林。”南希哼了一声。 “这么说,格里姆伍德没有出现在这些旧地图上?”她说。 塞巴斯蒂安转过身仔细地看着南希。 一个奇怪的微笑在他的唇边飞舞。 它看起来有点友好,但也有点不友好。 南希不傻。她以前见过那种笑容。 “据我所知没有,”他说。 “不过我会再检查一遍的,小姐。 我真的以为那只是一片荒地。 垃圾、污秽和空虚。 我很震惊地发现这可能是任何人真正的家。”南希皱起了眉头。 威洛在他们中间跳来跳去,抓住塞巴斯蒂安那件漂亮夹克的下摆。 “还有别的吗?”她尖叫道。 “请再给我们看看!”我要发疯了!”塞巴斯蒂安笑了。 “当然!他说。“你一定要去看看水晶湖。”
