新语篇 名著节选 Saturday was the day of Becky's picnic. Becky's mother prepared the picnic food. No adults went with the children, just some young teachers. They all met at Judge Thatcher's house and then they went on the ferry together.
They played games at the wooded place where the ferry stopped. Then there was the picnic meal, and finally a visit to some nearby caves. It was quite late when they started back towards the town.
Huck was already on duty watching the tavern. He heard the door closing softly. Two men walked past him, and one had something under his arm. It must be the box! It was too late to call Tom now, so Huck decided to follow them. They went up Cardiff Hill and down the other side into the dark trees. Then they stopped. Huck heard Indian Joe's voice just in front of him.
"Widow Douglas has got guests—there are lights on!"
"Let's go back," said the other man.
"Go back? I'm going to leave this country forever and this is my last chance to get my revenge(报仇) on her. I'm not interested in her money—you can have it. But her husband jailed me many times for being homeless and whipped me in front of the whole town. He's dead, but I'll take revenge on her!"
"Let's start now!"
"No, we must wait until the guests have gone and the lights are out."
Huck listened in horror. Then he walked backwards very carefully until he was a good distance from the two men. Then he ran down the hill until he reached the Welshman's house. He banged(猛敲) on the door. The old man put his head out of the window.
"What's all that noise? What do you want?"
"Let me in—quickly! I'll tell you everything!" The door opened and Huck told his story. Three minutes later, the old man and his sons were up the hill walking quietly. After a silence, there was a sudden explosion of guns and a cry. Huck ran back down the hill as fast as he could.
