Yes, Ned Land repeated, "so long as we get out!"

“是的，”尼德•蘭重復(fù)道，“只要我們能出去！”

I strolled for a little while from the lounge into the library. My companions kept their seats and didn't move. Soon I threw myself down on a couch and picked up a book, which my eyes skimmed mechanically.

我從客廳到圖書室來(lái)回地走了一些時(shí)候。我的同伴們坐著，一言不發(fā)。不久我躺在長(zhǎng)沙發(fā)上，拿著一本書，兩眼機(jī)械地看下去。

A quarter of an hour later, Conseil approached me, saying:

一刻鐘后，康塞爾走近前來(lái)，對(duì)我說(shuō)：

Is it deeply fascinating, this volume master is reading?

“先生看的書很有趣嗎？”

Tremendously fascinating, I replied.

“很有趣。"我回答。

I believe it. Master is reading his own book!

“我想是很有趣。先生看的書是先生寫的書哩！”

My own book?

“我寫的書嗎？”

Indeed, my hands were holding my own work on the great ocean depths. I hadn't even suspected. I closed the book and resumed my strolling. Ned and Conseil stood up to leave.

正是，我手中拿著的是那本《海底的神秘》。我真是沒有想到呢。我把書合起來(lái)，我又來(lái)回地走起來(lái)了。尼德•蘭和康塞爾兩人站起來(lái)，要走開。

Stay here, my friends, I said, stopping them. "Let's stay together until we're out of this blind alley."

“朋友們，請(qǐng)留下，”我拉住他們說(shuō)，“我們留在直到我們退出這條走不通的道路。

As master wishes, Conseil replied.

“如您所愿，”康塞爾答道，

The hours passed. I often studied the instruments hanging on the lounge wall. The pressure gauge indicated that the Nautilus stayed at a constant depth of 300 meters, the compass that it kept heading south, the log that it was traveling at a speed of twenty miles per hour, an excessive speed in such a cramped area. But Captain Nemo knew that by this point there was no such thing as too fast, since minutes were now worth centuries.

“幾小時(shí)過(guò)去了，我時(shí)?？茨菕煸诳蛷d墻壁上的機(jī)械壓力表指出，諾第留 斯號(hào)保持在三百米深的一定水層中，羅盤總是指向南，測(cè)程器的記錄是速度每小時(shí)二十海里，在緊窄的水道中來(lái)說(shuō)，這是過(guò)快的速度。尼摩船長(zhǎng)知道船行不能過(guò)快， 但這時(shí)候，幾分鐘簡(jiǎn)直等于幾世紀(jì)呢。

At 8:25 a second collision took place. This time astern. I grew pale. My companions came over. I clutched Conseil's hand. Our eyes questioned each other, and more directly than if our thoughts had been translated into words.

八點(diǎn)二十五分，第二次沖撿發(fā)生了。這一次是在船后部。我面色發(fā)白了。我的同伴們走到我身邊來(lái)。我拉著康塞爾的手。我們面面相覷，拿眼光來(lái)代替說(shuō)話，這比用語(yǔ)言來(lái)表示我們的思想，好像更為直接些，

Just then the captain entered the lounge. I went to him.

這個(gè)時(shí)候，尼摩船長(zhǎng)走進(jìn)廳中來(lái)，我迎向前去。

Our path is barred to the south? I asked him.

我問他：“南邊的路也堵住了嗎？”

Yes, sir. When it overturned, that iceberg closed off every exit.

“是的，先生。冰山翻倒的時(shí)候把所有的出口都堵住了?！?/p>

We're boxed in? Yes.

“我們是被封鎖了嗎？”“是的?！?/p>
