Harrigan — Page 8

Chinese → English CHAPTER 1 Level 4/10

另一个人僵直地站着打斗,双脚撑地,将全身的重量凝聚在每一拳之中;而哈里根则像豹子一样来回飞扑,凭借猫一般灵敏的身法躲避打击,双手得以腾出来击出重如铁锤的拳头。

The other man had fought stiffly erect, standing with feet braced to give the weight of his whole body to every punch; Harrigan raged back and forth like a panther, avoiding blows by the catlike agility of his movements, which left both hands free to strike sledge-hammer blows.

不一会儿,他听到身旁传来一阵笑声。他用眼角余光看见那个黑发男人加入了战斗,依然像从前那般笔直僵硬,长臂像活塞一样不断伸出。

Presently he heard a chuckling at his side. Out of the corner of his eye he saw the black-haired man come into the battle, straight and stiff as before, with long arms shooting out like pistons.

这是一幅壮观的景象。某种情感使哈里根心潮澎湃,涌上喉头,再度涌起,化作一声野性的呐喊冲口而出。那些曾在战场上面对爱尔兰军团的不幸之人,都知道那声呐喊。

It was a glorious sight. Something made Harrigan's heart big; rose and swelled his throat; rose again and came as a wild yell upon his tongue. The unfortunates who have faced Irish legions in battle know that yell.

那些士兵不知道那声呐喊,他们迟疑了片刻。还有一件事使他们的士气进一步低落——那是警察巡逻车铿锵驶来,猛地刹停,一队后备警察涌了出来。

The soldiers did not know it, and they held back for a moment. Something else lowered their spirits still more. It was the clanging of the police patrol as it swung to a halt and a body of reserves poured out.

「我们要完了!」哈里根气喘吁吁地对并肩作战的同伴说,「但是,老兄,我觉得这一番痛快真是值得啊!」

"Here comes our finish!" panted Harrigan to his comrade in arms. "But oh, man, I'm thinkin' it was swate while it lasted!"

在他最激昂的时刻,爱尔兰口音便愈发浓重地涌上他的舌尖。

In his great moments the Irish brogue thronged thick upon his tongue.

「完了个屁!」另一人咕哝道,「跟着我,小子!」

"Finish, hell!" grunted the other. "After me, lad!"

他像公牛一样低下头,猛地向人群冲去。哈里根转瞬间领悟了他的意图,将肩膀抵住朋友的臀部。

And lowering his head like a bull, he drove forward against the crowd. Harrigan caught the idea in a flash. He put his shoulder to the hip of his friend.
