Municipal--navigate The mythical creature As the director of the municipal waste plant.
神话中的动物 市废品加工厂厂长
Navigated through the musty waters behind the plant he began to think that he had maybe been a little too naive.
一面穿过工厂后面 散发着霉味的水面, 一面开始寻思:自己 可能有点儿太天真了。
Mysterious things had been happening in, this swamp; maybe the mystical creature that locals had been talking about wasreal?
这片沼泽地一直发生着 一些神秘的事情, 人们一直谈论的神秘 动物也许真有其事?
He didn't know, but he had a nasty desire to find that myth and bring it in.
他不知道, 但他有个强烈愿望, 那就是找到那个神话中 的动物并把它抓起来。
When the director had used all of his naval skills to get deep into the swamp where the waters were no longer navigable.
厂长用尽他所有的 海军技能深入沼泽地, 直到那里无法通航,
He mustered all of this courage and stepped out into the water. He and the swamp had a mutual hatred for each other.
然后他鼓起勇气 踏入水中。 他和那块沼泽地 彼此憎恨,
And he was sure that some snake or crocodile was just waiting to bite him. When he looked around be saw a myriad of strange plants.
他确信某条蛇或鳄鱼 正等着咬他。 他看看四周,发现 有无数奇怪的植物。
One mushroom was larger than his head! But he wasn' t here for a narrative about swamp vegetation;.
有个蘑菇比他的 脑袋还大! 但他来到这里不是 想写关于沼泽地 植物的故事,
He was here to solve a mystery. He was here, namely to put an end to swamp mythology.
而是想解谜的, 也就是说他来这里 是为了打破那个 沼泽地神话。
That was when he heard a strange musical sound coming from behind some trees. There, standing in a clearing, was a naked creature dancing and singing.
就在这时,他听到树后 传来一个奇怪而 又悦耳的声音。 在那边的一块空地上, 站着一个赤身裸体、 又唱又跳的动物。
The director was astonished;it was ugly, obviously a mutation of some kind. He pulled out his gun and took aim.
厂长惊呆了:它很丑, 显然是某个物种 的突变体。 厂长掏出手 枪开始瞄准。
Then the creature saw him and all of the muscles in its body went into action. It leaped across the clearing and knocked the gun from the director's hands.
这时那动物也看到了他 它浑身的肌肉 都动了起来。 它跳过空地, 把枪从厂长手中打落,
It reached up to strike him and then said in a hoarse voice. Now do you see what your plant has done to me?
并朝厂长猛扑过来, 然后它用嘶哑的 声音说道: 现在你看到了你们厂 对我干的好事了吧?
And with that the creature turned and ran away. The director retired and never came to the swamp again.
说完,那动物 便转身跑开了。 厂长从此退休,后来 再也没来过这片沼泽地
The myth was real. Sometimes they are!
神话是真的。有时候 神话的确是真的!
