Off in the trees, the distant scream of some frightened animal made him look up. His mare whinnied nervously. Had his wolf found some prey? He cupped his hands around his mouth. "Ghost!" he shouted. "Ghost, to me." The only answer was a rush of wings behind him as an owl took flight.
远方的树林里传来动物的受惊尖叫,他立刻抬头,母马也不安地哼着。是他的狼找到猎物了?他把手环在嘴边,“白灵!”他叫道,“白灵!到我这儿来!”但惟一的回应只是身后某只猫头鹰振翅高飞的声响。
Frowning, Jon continued on his way. He led the mare for half an hour, until she was dry. Ghost did not appear. Jon wanted to mount up and ride again, but he was concerned about his missing wolf. "Ghost," he called again. "Where are you? To me! Ghost!" Nothing in these woods could trouble a direwolf, even a half-grown direwolf, unless... no, Ghost was too smart to attack a bear, and if there was a wolf pack anywhere close Jon would have surely heard them howling.
琼恩皱起眉头,继续上路。他牵马走了半小时,直到它身上干透为止。但白灵始终没有出现。琼恩想上马赶路,却又担心不知去向的狼。“白灵,”他再度叫喊,“你在哪里?快过来!白灵!”这片林子里应该没什么能威胁到冰原狼——就算这只冰原狼尚未发育完全也罢,除非……不,白灵绝不会蠢到去攻击熊,而假使这附近有狼群,琼恩也一定能听见它们的嚎叫。
He should eat, he decided. Food would settle his stomach and give Ghost the chance to catch up. There was no danger yet; Castle Black still slept. In his saddlebag, he found a biscuit, a piece of cheese, and a small withered brown apple. He'd brought salt beef as well, and a rasher of bacon he'd filched from the kitchens, but he would save the meat for the morrow. After it was gone he'd need to hunt, and that would slow him.
最后他决定先吃点东西再说。食物可以稍微安抚脾胃,更能多给白灵一点时间跟上。此时尚无危险,黑城堡依然在沉睡中。于是他从鞍袋里找出一块饼干,一小片乳酪和一个干瘪的褐色苹果。他还带了腌牛肉,以及从厨房偷来的一片培根,但他想把肉留到明天。因为等食物没了,他就得自己打猎,而那一定会拖延他的行程。
