Chapter Two: Robin meets Little John

One day, Robin came to a stream with a small bridge.

When he began to cross it, he heard a loud voice say, 'I want to cross the stream first!'

Robin turned around and saw an enormous young man.

He was very tall.

'No,I was first!' answered Robin.

'Can you push me off the bridge?' asked the enormous man.

He was holding a wooden staff.

Robin cut a long branch from a tree and made a staff.

Then he began to fight on the bridge.

Robin was fast and light.

But soon, the enormous man pushed Robin into the water.

He was very strong.

The enormous man laughed.

Then he pulled Robin out of the water.

Robin started to laugh too.

'You are an honest fighter!' said Robin 'What is your name?'

'Myname is John little. I am an honest man. I fought with good King Richard's menin the Holy Land. I made King Richard's sword and the swords of his men. He isa great king, but his brother John is cruel and greedy! I don't want to serveKing John. I am looking for Robin Hood. I want to join his outlaws.'

'Welcome to our merry company of Outlaws! I am Robin Hood!' said Robin, smiling. 'A friend of King Richard is a friend of mine!'

John little was very surprised.

Then the two men embraced and became good friends.

'Now that you are an outlaw, you must change your name. Your new name is Little John.'

Robin took Little John to the secret hiding place in the forest.

The outlaws welcomed Little John with a big meal.

Little John was an expert sword maker.

Soon every outlaw had a new sword.

The outlaws liked Little John because he was friendly and kind.

At night, everyone sat around the fire and listened to his stories.

He told them about his adventures in the Holy Land.

第二章：罗宾遇见小约翰

一天，罗宾带着一座小桥来到一条小溪边。
当他准备过河时，他听到一个响亮的声音说：“我想先过河！”
罗宾转过身来，看见一个身材魁梧的年轻人。
他很高。
“不，我是第一个！”罗宾回答。
“你能把我推下桥吗？”身材魁梧的人问。
他手里拿着一根木棍。
罗宾从树上砍下一根长树枝做了一根棍子。
然后他开始在桥上战斗。
罗宾又快又轻。
但很快，这个大块头就把罗宾推到了水里。
他很强壮。
那个高大的男人笑了。
然后他把罗宾从水里拉了出来。
罗宾也笑了起来。
“你是一个诚实的战士！”罗宾说，“你叫什么名字？”
“我叫约翰·利特尔。我是一个诚实的人。我在圣地和善良的理查国王的人并肩作战。理查国王的剑和他手下的剑都是我做的。他是一位伟大的国王，但他的兄弟约翰既残忍又贪婪！我不想侍奉约翰国王。我在找罗宾汉。我想加入他的亡命之徒。”
“欢迎加入我们一伙亡命之徒！”我是罗宾汉！罗宾笑着说。“理查国王的朋友就是我的朋友！”
约翰·利特尔非常惊讶。
然后两人拥抱在一起，成了好朋友。
“既然你是个亡命之徒，你就必须改姓。你的新名字是小约翰。”
罗宾带着小约翰去了森林里的秘密藏身之处。
歹徒们用一顿大餐欢迎小约翰。
小约翰是个造剑能手。
很快，每个不法之徒都有了一把新剑。
亡命之徒们喜欢小约翰，因为他既友好又善良。
晚上，大家围坐在火炉旁听他讲故事。
他告诉他们他在圣地的冒险经历。
