8 The Journey

CHAPTER 8 THE JOURNEY The Dragon Masters and the dragons made their way across the grassland. "What is your kingdom like?" Obi asked as they walked. "Well, Bracken is not flat like here," Drake replied. "There are mountains." "And there are a lot more trees," Ana added.

第八章旅程龙的主人和龙穿过草原。 “你的王国是什么样的？”欧比边走边问。 “嗯，布雷肯不像这里那么平坦，”德雷克回答。 “那里有山。”“还有更多的树，”安娜补充说。

"I used to live on a farm," Drake told Obi. "One year, we had a summer with very little rain. A lot of the crops died. It was scary." Obi nodded. "Without our crops, there will be no food to eat." Drake picked up his water pouch and frowned. "Rats. I'm almost out of water." "Me, too," Ana added. "I think there is a watering hole around here," Obi said. He walked ahead of Ana and Drake, looking at the ground. Then he broke away from the path. "Where are you going?" Drake asked. He and Ana hurried to catch up to Obi. "These are animal tracks," Obi explained, pointing to the ground. "And they lead right here."

“我以前住在农场，”德雷克告诉欧比。 “有一年，我们有一个很少下雨的夏天。 许多庄稼都死了。太可怕了。” 奥比点了点头。“没有我们的庄稼，就没有食物吃了。” 德雷克拿起他的水袋，皱起眉头。 “老鼠。我的水快没了。” “我也是，”安娜补充道。“我想这附近有个水坑，”欧比说。 他走在安娜和德雷克的前面，看着地面。 然后他离开了小路。 “你要去哪儿？”德雷克问道。 他和安娜急忙追上了欧比。 “这些是动物的足迹，”欧比指着地面解释道。 “他们就在这里带头。”

He pushed through some bushes, and they stepped into a clearing. A small pool of water bubbled up from the dirt. "Wow!" Drake cried. "You found water!" Ana said happily. They filled their pouches with water. Worm took a drink, too. Then Obi led them back through the bushes.

他穿过灌木丛，走进一块空地。 一小滩水从泥土里冒出来。 “哇!”德雷克哭了。“你找到水了！”安娜高兴地说。 他们把袋子装满了水。 虫子也喝了一杯。然后欧比领着他们穿过灌木丛。

Suddenly, Obi froze. He stopped Drake with his arm.

突然，欧比僵住了。他用胳膊拦住了德雷克。

A strange animal stood in the grass ahead of them. It looked like a very big, very hairy pig with long, white tusks! The animal's ears twitched. Then it turned around and locked eyes with Drake.

一只奇怪的动物站在他们前面的草丛里。 它看起来像一头毛茸茸的大猪，长着又长又白的獠牙！那动物的耳朵抽搐了一下。 然后它转过身来和德雷克对视了一下。
