《荒野求生》之跟着贝尔去冒险第220期:重新振作精神

 I'm in an old, deserted¹ homestead in the shadow of the Rocky mountains. 我现在在落基山脉背阴处 一所荒弃的旧宅里

Morning in the rockies after a thunderstorm is about the most spectacular place you'll ever see. 雨后山脉的清晨 会是你曾见过的最美妙的景色

Just beautiful.And a nice time just to warm up before getting going,and also try and freshen up a bit. 太美了 在出发前再暖和暖和 而且可以梳洗一下

Out in the wild, washing and personal admin are not only important for your hygiene², 荒野之中  洗漱干净和保持个人卫生 不仅仅是为了身体健康

but they serve as a morale³ booster and help to lift the spirits. 还可以提升士气 帮你重新振作精神

I've got some of this alder⁴ branch.It's like nature's toothbrush. 我找到些桤木树枝 这些可是天然的牙刷

You can recognize it because it's the only deciduous⁵ tree. 因为是这片唯一的落叶树 所以可以辨别出来

It's got these little cones⁶ on it here. 在这里可以看见锥形的部位

All you got to do-chew the end to rough it up a bit, like that, 你要做的就是  咬松它的根部 就像这样

then use that to really get in your teeth and give them a clean. 然后将它插到牙缝中 开始刷牙

And then I got a bit of this mullein.That's also known as cowboy loo paper. 我还找到这些毛蕊花属的植物 它另外一个广为人知的名字是 牛仔的手纸

Really velvety⁷, soft leaves perfect. But you are not getting a demo of that one. 天鹅绒般柔软的叶子 非常好  但你们是看不到使用示范了

In the light of day, this homestead seems a lot more inviting⁸.But it's time to move on. 在白天  房子看起来还挺吸引人的 但是时候继续上路了

Feels kind of weird⁹ leaving this old homestead. 离开这所旧房子还真感觉有点奇怪

Something.. homely¹⁰ about it that kind of half suggests that 那房子让我有家的感觉 虽然房子真的是破烂不堪

there should be people nearby,even though it's really dilapidated. 但还是给人带来 附件有人居住的错觉

On the outskirts¹¹ of the homestead,I find an old telegraph pole. 在房子郊外 我发现一根旧的电报杆

This would usually offer the survivor¹² a glimmer¹³ of hope,but out here, signs of civilization mean nothing. 这通常都给求生者带来一线希望 但在这里  文明的遗迹却不代表什么

Normally, this wouldn't be a bad thing to follow. 正常来说  跟着电线杆走是个好选择

Being out here, look, just doesn't lead anywhere just goes straight back into the ground. 但现在 瞧 跟着走就行不通了 杆子都断了 直指地面
