Audiobook Dictation: “His body was iron; and he…”

His body was iron; and he never troubled himself about dews or rain or frost or snow.

他身如铁铸，从不在意露水、雨水、霜冻或风雪。

Scarcely had he lain down when a man came along the road, carrying an axe and a great bundle of chopped wood.

他刚躺下，便有一个人沿路走来，扛着一把斧头和一大捆劈好的柴火。

This woodcutter halted on seeing Kwairyo lying down, and, after a moment of silent observation, said to him in a tone of great surprise:--

这樵夫见回龙躺在那里，便停下脚步，默默打量了片刻，然后以十分惊讶的语气对他说：——

There are haunters about here,--many of them.

这一带有鬼怪出没，——多得很。

Are you not afraid of Hairy Things?"

您不怕那些毛茸茸的妖物吗？”

As for lonesome places, I like them: they are suitable for meditation.

至于荒僻之地，我倒是喜欢：正适合静坐冥想。

This place has a bad name,--a very bad name.

这地方名声不好，——非常不好。

Therefore, although my house is only a wretched thatched hut, let me beg of you to come home with me at once.

所以，寒舍虽只是一间破茅屋，还是恳请您立刻随我回去吧。

In the way of food, I have nothing to offer you; but there is a roof at least, and you can sleep under it without risk."

吃的东西我是什么也拿不出来；但至少有个屋顶，您可以在底下安安稳稳地睡一觉。”

The woodcutter guided him along a narrow path, leading up from the main road through mountain-forest.

樵夫领着他沿一条小径前行，那小径从大路岔出，穿过山林蜿蜒而上。
