01 How Wild?

Ghost Town at Sundown

日落时分的鬼镇

Chapter 1 How Wild Jack and Annie were sitting on the porch of their house. Annie was gazing down the street at the Frog Creek woods. Jack was reading a book. I have a feeling we should check the woods again, said Annie. Why? said Jack without looking up. The rabbit's hopping by, said Annie. So we've seen rabbits before. Not like this one, said Annie.

第一章 到底有多野 杰克和安妮正坐在自家的门廊上。 安妮盯着街道尽头的青蛙溪树林看。 杰克正在看书。 “我觉得我们该再去树林里看看。”安妮说。 “为什么呀？”杰克头也不抬地问。 “有只兔子蹦过去了哦。”安妮说。 “哎呀，我们以前又不是没见过兔子。” “这只不一样呀。”安妮说。

What do you mean?" Jack stood up and looked with her. He saw a rabbit with very long legs hopping down their street. Soon the rabbit left the sidewalk and headed into the woods. He's a sign," said Annie. A sign of what? said Jack. That Morgan's back, said Annie. She jumped off the porch. Come on! But what about dinner? Jack said. Dad said it would be ready soon. Don't worry," said Annie. You know when we leave in the treehouse, time stops. She ran across their yard. Jack pulled on his backpack. Back in ten minutes, he called through the screen door. Then he followed Annie. They hurried down their street and into the woods.

“你这话是什么意思呀？”杰克站起来和她一起看。他看见一只腿特别长的兔子 正沿着他们家的街道蹦跳。没一会儿兔子就离开人行道，钻进了树林里。 “他是个信号哦。”安妮说。 “什么信号呀？”杰克问。 “说明摩根回来啦！”安妮说完跳下门廊，“快走吧！” “可是晚饭怎么办呀？”杰克说，“爸爸说很快就做好了。” “别担心呀。”安妮说，“你知道的，我们坐树屋离开的时候，时间会停下来的。” 她跑过院子。杰克背上了他的双肩包。 “十分钟就回来！”他隔着纱门喊了一声，然后跟着安妮走了。 他们沿着街道快步走，钻进了树林里。

the Frog Creek woods. The sun was setting above the trees. There he is, said Annie. The rabbit was standing in a ray of sunlight. When he saw them, he took off. Jack and Annie followed the rabbit until he vanished behind the tallest tree. I told you, see? said Annie, panting. She pointed up at the tree. Morgan Lafay was waving to them from the magic treehouse high in the branches. Jack and Annie waved back to her. As always, Jack was very happy to see the Enchantress librarian again. Come on up, she called. Annie and Jack started up the rope ladder. They climbed up to the treehouse. We followed a strange rabbit here, said Annie.

就是青蛙溪树林。太阳正从树梢上方慢慢沉落。 “他在那儿呢！”安妮说。那只兔子正站在一道阳光里，看见他俩之后，就 跑开了。杰克和安妮跟着兔子，直到他消失在最高的那棵树后面。 “我就说吧，你看？”安妮喘着气说。她抬手指向那棵树，摩根·勒菲正站在 高高架在树枝上的魔法树屋里朝他们挥手呢。杰克和安妮也朝她挥手。 和往常一样，杰克又见到这位女巫图书馆员，心里可开心了。 “快上来呀。”她喊道。安妮和杰克开始爬绳梯。 他们爬进树屋。“我们跟着一只奇怪的兔子过来的。”安妮说。

said Annie, is he your friend? Perhaps, said Morgan. She smiled mysteriously. I have many odd friends. Including us, said Annie. Morgan laughed, that's right. How are you, said Jack? I'm still having problems with Merlin, said the Enchantress, which leaves me little time to do my real work. But soon, you both will become master librarians, and that will be a big help to me. Jack smiled. He was going to be a master librarian who traveled through time and space. It was almost too good to believe. Are you ready to solve another riddle? Asked Morgan. Yes, said Jack and Annie together. Good, said Morgan. First, you'll need this.

安妮问：“他是你的朋友吗？” “可能吧。”摩根说。 她神秘地笑了笑。 “我有好多稀奇古怪的朋友呢。” “也包括我们对吧？”安妮说。 摩根笑了：“没错呀。” “你最近还好吗？”杰克问。 “我和梅林之间还有点问题没解决。”这位女巫说， 搞得我都没什么时间做正经工作了。 不过很快，你们俩都会成为图书馆大师，到时候 就能帮我大忙啦。 杰克笑了。 他就要成为能穿越时空的图书馆大师啦。 这简直好得像做梦一样。 “你们准备好解开下一个谜题了吗？” 摩根问道。 “准备好了！”杰克和安妮异口同声地说。 “太好了。”摩根说。 “首先，你们需要这个。”
