Ned heard applause, cheers, whistles, shocked gasps, excited muttering, and over it all the rasping, raucous laughter of the Hound. The Knight of Flowers reined up at the end of the lists. His lance was not even broken. His sapphires winked in the sun as he raised his visor, smiling. The commons went mad for him.
奈德聽見喝彩聲,歡呼聲,口哨聲,驚駭?shù)拇瓪饴暎d奮的低語聲,尤其是"獵狗"粗啞刺耳的笑聲。百花騎士在場子對面勒住韁繩,連長槍都沒折斷。當(dāng)他掀開面罩,露出微笑的時(shí)候,一身的藍(lán)寶石在陽光下眨眼,全體觀眾為他而瘋狂。
In the middle of the field, Ser Gregor Clegane disentangled himself and came boiling to his feet. He wrenched off his helm and slammed it down onto the ground. His face was dark with fury and his hair fell down into his eyes. “My sword,” he shouted to his squire, and the boy ran it out to him. By then his stallion was back on its feet as well.
場子中間,格雷果·克里岡爵士總算松開韁繩和馬鐙,怒氣沖天地站起來。他猛地扯下頭盔往地上一摔,臉色陰沉,滿是怒意,頭發(fā)垂下,蓋住眼睛。"拿劍來。"他朝侍從大喊,那孩子趕忙跑上前遞給他。這時(shí)他的坐騎也站起來了。
Gregor Clegane killed the horse with a single blow of such ferocity that it half severed the animal’s neck. Cheers turned to shrieks in a heartbeat. The stallion went to its knees, screaming as it died. By then Gregor was striding down the lists toward Ser Loras Tyrell, his bloody sword clutched in his fist. “Stop him!” Ned shouted, but his words were lost in the roar. Everyone else was yelling as well, and Sansa was crying.
格雷果·克里岡一劍砍殺了他的馬,力道之猛烈,幾乎把馬頭整個(gè)剁下。歡呼瞬間轉(zhuǎn)為尖叫。馬兒慘叫著跪地而死,格雷果握著滴血的長劍朝場邊的洛拉斯·提利爾爵士走去。"抓住他!"奈德大叫,但他的話音淹沒在吼叫聲中。每個(gè)人都在大吼大叫,珊莎則泣不成聲。
It all happened so fast. The Knight of Flowers was shouting for his own sword as Ser Gregor knocked his squire aside and made a grab for the reins of his horse. The mare scented blood and reared. Loras Tyrell kept his seat, but barely.
一切都發(fā)生得好快。百花騎士也喊著要劍,但格雷果爵士把他的侍從推開,伸手抓住韁繩。小母馬聞到血腥味,嚇得后腳站立,洛拉斯·提利爾差點(diǎn)摔下馬去。

背景介紹:
《權(quán)力的游戲》是一部中世紀(jì)史詩奇幻題材的電視連續(xù)劇。該劇以美國作家喬治·R·R·馬丁的奇幻巨作《冰與火之歌》七部曲為基礎(chǔ)改編創(chuàng)作,由大衛(wèi)·貝尼奧夫和丹尼爾·威斯編劇、HBO電視網(wǎng)推出。喬治·雷蒙德·理查德·馬丁是歐美奇幻小說大師。馬丁的作品主要以人物為關(guān)注點(diǎn),描寫細(xì)膩豐富,突破了幻想文學(xué)界固有的創(chuàng)作模式,多次引領(lǐng)閱讀潮流。由于馬丁的輝煌成就,他被譽(yù)為美國的托爾金和新世紀(jì)的海明威。從1989年開始,馬丁淡出文學(xué)界,轉(zhuǎn)而投身演藝界發(fā)展,1996年他才重返文壇而開始奇幻文學(xué)的創(chuàng)作,處女作便是《權(quán)力的游戲》,即為《冰與火之歌》的首部曲。《權(quán)力的游戲》甫出便拿下了British Fantasy Society、 世界奇幻獎和星云獎年度最佳幻想作品提名,在非官方的不記名奇幻作品投票中,《冰與火之歌》儼然已經(jīng)可以和《魔戒》平起平坐,作者網(wǎng)站的訪問量也是和斯蒂芬·金、J.K.羅琳等不相上下,其受歡迎的程度可見一斑。喬治馬丁被時(shí)代雜志評選為2011年影響世界的一百人之一。
