Under the lake, probably, said Ron, squinting around at the dark, slimy walls.
“大概到了湖底下。”羅恩說。他瞇起眼睛，打量著周圍黑魃魃、黏糊糊的墻壁。
All three of them turned to stare into the darkness ahead.
然后，他們三個人都轉眼盯著黑暗的前方。
Lumos! Harry muttered to his wand and it lit again. "C'mon," he said to Ron and Lockhart, and off they went, their footsteps slapping loudly on the wet floor.
“熒光閃爍！”哈利朝他的魔杖低聲說了一句，魔杖便又發出了亮光。“走吧。”他對羅恩和洛哈特說。三個人的腳啦嗒啪嗒地踩在潮濕的地面上，發出很響的聲音。
The tunnel was so dark that they could only see a little distance ahead. Their shadows on the wet walls looked monstrous in the wandlight.
隧道里太黑了，他們只能看見面前的一小塊地方。魔杖的光把他們的影子映在濕乎乎的墻壁上，看上去像妖怪一樣。
Remember, Harry said quietly as they walked cautiously forward, "any sign of movement, close your eyes straight away... "
“記住，”當他們小心地往前走著時，哈利低聲說道，“只要一有動靜，就趕緊閉上眼睛……”
But the tunnel was quiet as the grave, and the first unexpected sound they heard was a loud crunch as Ron stepped on what turned out to be a rat's skull. Harry lowered his wand to look at the floor and saw that it was littered with small animal bones. Trying very hard not to imagine what Ginny might look like if they found her, Harry led the way forward, around a dark bend in the tunnel.
可是隧道里像墳墓一樣寂然無聲，他們只聽見一個出乎意料的聲音，咔啪，結果發現是羅恩踩到了一個老鼠頭骨。哈利把魔杖放低，查看地面，發現到處都有一些小動物的骨頭。哈利拼命克制住自己，不去想象金妮被他們找到時會是什么樣子。他領頭向前面走，轉過隧道里一個黑暗的彎道。
Harry — there's something up there — said Ron hoarsely, grabbing Harry's shoulder.
“哈利，那兒有個什么東西……”羅恩一把抓住哈利的肩膀，聲音嘶啞地說道。
They froze, watching. Harry could just see the outline of something huge and curved, lying right across the tunnel. It wasn't moving.
三個人頓時呆立不動，注視著。哈利看見一個盤繞著的龐然大物的輪廓，躺在隧道的另一邊，一動不動。
Maybe it's asleep, he breathed, glancing back at the other two.
“也許它睡著了。”他喘著氣說，回頭望了望另外兩個人。
