CHAPTER 6

Pinocchio falls asleep with his feet on a foot warmer,and awakens the next day with his feet all burned off.

Pinocchio hated the dark street,but he was so hungry that,in spite of it,he ran out of the house.The night was pitch black.It thundered,and bright flashes of lightning now and again shot across the sky,turning it into a sea of fire.An angry wind blew cold and raised dense clouds of dust,while the trees shook and moaned in a weird way.

Pinocchio was greatly afraid of thunder and lightning,but the hunger he felt was far greater than his fear.In a dozen leaps and bounds,he came to the village,tired out,puffing like a whale,and with tongue hanging.

The whole village was dark and deserted.The stores were closed,the doors,the windows.In the streets,not even a dog could be seen.It seemed the Village of the Dead.

Pinocchio,in desperation,ran up to a doorway,threw himself upon the bell,and pulled it wildly,saying to himself:“Someone will surely answer that!”

He was right.An old man in a nightcap opened the window and looked out.He called down angrily:

“What do you want at this hour of night?”

“Will you be good enough to give me a bit of bread?I am hungry.”

“Wait a minute and I'll come right back,” answered the old fellow,thinking he had to deal with one of those boys who love to roam around at night ringing people's bells while they are peacefully asleep.

After a minute or two,the same voice cried:

“Get under the window and hold out your hat!”

Pinocchio had no hat,but he managed to get under the window just in time to feel a shower of ice-cold water pour down on his poor wooden head,his shoulders,and over his whole body.

He returned home as wet as a rag,and tired out from weariness and hunger.As he no longer had any strength left with which to stand,he sat down on a little stool and put his two feet on the stove to dry them.

There he fell asleep,and while he slept,his wooden feet began to burn.Slowly,very slowly,they blackened and turned to ashes.

Pinocchio snored away happily as if his feet were not his own.At dawn he opened his eyes just as a loud knocking sounded at the door.

“Who is it?” he called,yawning and rubbing his eyes.

“It is I,” answered a voice.

It was the voice of Geppetto.

第六章

匹诺曹把一双脚放在脚炉上倒头睡去,第二天早晨醒来时他的脚被烧掉了。

匹诺曹不喜欢黑暗的街道,但他饥肠辘辘,所以就不顾街道的黑暗,跑出了房子。夜黑漆漆的,雷声隆隆,电光不时地闪过天空,把天空变成了一片火海。狂风冷冷地吹着,卷起滚滚烟尘,同时树木摇晃,怪声呜咽。

匹诺曹非常害怕电闪雷鸣,但肚子饿要比电闪雷鸣可怕得多。他连蹦带跳了几十下来到一个村子,早已是筋疲力尽,他像鲸鱼一样噗噗吹着气,舌头耷拉着。

整个村子一片漆黑,连一个人影也没有。店铺都关门了,各家各户也关门闭窗,街上连一只狗也看不到,整个村子好像一个死人村。

匹诺曹绝望地跑到一个门口,扑倒在门铃上,一边拼命地拉铃,一边自言自语道:“肯定会有人开门的!”

他说得没错,一个戴着睡帽的老头打开窗户,伸出头,朝下面怒气冲冲地喊道:“你深更半夜想要干什么?”

“你行行好,给我一点儿面包好吗?我很饿。”

“等一会儿,我马上下来。”老头回答说,心里想他必须要收拾一下喜欢深更半夜四处游荡,在人们安睡时拉门铃的小子。

过了一两分钟,还是那个声音叫道:“站在窗下,伸出你的帽子!”

匹诺曹没有帽子,但他设法走到窗下,这时正好一大盆冰水泼在了他可怜的木头脑袋、肩膀和身上。

他像落汤鸡似的回到家里,因为又累又饿,筋疲力尽,没有力气站起来,就坐在一个小凳子上,把两只脚放在脚炉上烤干。

他就这样睡着了。他睡着时,一双木头脚开始燃烧起来,慢慢地,它们烧黑了,变成了灰烬。

匹诺曹一直欢快地打着呼噜,好像这双脚不是他自己的。黎明时分,一阵咚咚咚的敲门声响起时,他睁开了眼睛。

“是谁呀?”他打着哈欠、揉着眼睛问道。

“是我。”一个声音回答说。

这是杰佩托的声音。
