Part 7

The Monster SHRIEKED with surprise. Its big yellow eyes FLASHED and its tentacles whirled about like mad.

怪兽惊讶地尖声大叫起来。 它黄色的大眼睛闪闪发亮，触手疯狂地转来转去。

Murray and the pirates didn't stand a chance. They were scooped up in a jiffy and held tight in the monster's slippery grip. Murray looked worried, so Bun stuck himself to Murray's hat to cheer him up, but it didn't really help.

默里和海盗们一点机会都没有。 他们一下子就被捞了起来，被怪兽滑溜溜的触手紧紧攥住。 默里看起来很发愁，所以小邦粘到了默里的帽子上想逗他开心，可是没什么用。

They were lifted up high into the air, level with the Monster's HUGE, yellow eyes and BIG, wide mouth. The Monster peered at them, and with a loud, low bellow, said... I DON'T LIKE PIRATES! The pirates whimpered and said nothing, so Murray took a deep breath and managed to squeak out... "You w-won't eat us, will you?"

他们被举到了高高的空中，刚好和怪兽巨大的黄眼睛、又大又宽的嘴巴齐平。 怪兽盯着他们看，发出一声低沉响亮的吼叫，说道…… 我不喜欢海盗！ 海盗们呜咽着什么都不敢说，于是默里深吸一口气，好不容易才吱吱地挤出话来…… “你、你不会吃了我们吧？”

The Monster huffed, "EAT you? Oh, no! As I said, I don't LIKE pirates! Awfully chewy, I expect. Gritty! And I don't know where you've been!"

怪兽气鼓鼓地说：“吃你们？ 哦，才不要！ 我都说了，我不喜欢海盗！ 我猜肯定嚼起来韧得很。 还牙碜！ 再说我都不知道你们去过什么脏地方！”

With a disappointed sigh, the Monster plonked the pirates back down. "I'm sorry I scared you but you made me jump. And any way, you shouldn't try and steal my treasure. You're terribly naughty." Murray straightened his hat (and Bun) and gazed at the gold that covered the cave floor. "It IS very shiny," he said. "Eh? Oh, not THAT!" said the Monster, fetching something out from behind its back.

怪兽失望地叹了口气，“扑通”一声把海盗们放回了地上。 “抱歉吓到你们了，可你们刚才也吓了我一跳。 再说了，你们不该想偷我的宝藏。 你们太淘气了。” 默里把帽子（还有帽子上的小邦）扶摆正，盯着铺满洞穴地面的金子看。 “这些金子确实亮闪闪的。”他说。 “啊？ “哦，我说的不是那些！”怪兽说着，从背后掏出了一样东西。
