On the other hand, we're going to turn our attention back to the beavers and the other three children.As soon as Mr.
Beaver had said the words, "Not a minute shall be delayed," everyone began to hurriedly put on their coats, but Mrs.
Beaver, who took some bags and put them on the table, said, "All right, Mr.
Beaver, help me get the piece of ham, and a bag of tea, and some sugar and matches."
Can anyone help get some bread out of the crockpot in the corner" "What are you doing, Mrs.
Beaver," Lucy cried out in confusion."
Little darling, I have to prepare something for each of us," said Mrs.
Beaver, looking very calm, "you don't want to go hungry halfway through," "but we don't have enough time," said Susan, buttoning up her coat, "and she'll be here at any moment." ”"That's what I told it."
Mr.
Beaver interjected at this time."
Don't talk nonsense," said Mrs.
Beaver, "think a little more clearly, Mr.
Beaver.It would be at least a quarter of an hour before she got here. ”"If we are going to get to the stone table before her," said Peter, "is it not better to set out as early as possible," and "Mrs.
Beaver, you must remember one thing," said Susan, "and when she arrives, she will chase after her as soon as she finds that we have left." ”"She did," said Mrs.
Beaver, "and we could not have gotten ahead of her anyway, for we were on foot, and she was on a sled." ”"So, we're hopeless," Susan asked."
All right, don't make a fuss, be nice," said Mrs.
Beaver, "and help me get six clean handkerchiefs out of that drawer."
Of course, there is a silver lining.We didn't walk as fast as she did, but we could hide and take a path she didn't expect, maybe we'd get there first. ”"That's right, Mrs.
Beaver.""
But we should leave right now." ”"Don't be alarmed, Mr.
Beaver," said its wife, "you see, it's ready now.There are four portions of food here, and the smallest one is given to the youngest of them. ”She looked at Lucy and added, "That's you, baby." ”"Oh, I beg you to hurry up."
Lucy couldn't help but say."
Alright then, I'm pretty much ready now."
Mrs.
Beaver finally replied, and while asking her husband to put on her snow boots, she nagged, "I think the sewing machine is too heavy to take away, isn't it?"
”Mr.
Beaver said, "It's just a lot of weight."
I don't think you'll need a sewing machine on our way," "I can't stand the thought of a witch messing with my sewing machine," replied Mrs.
Beaver, "and she might break it or steal it." ”"Oh, please hurry, please hurry," the three children said anxiously.And so they finally left the house, and Mr.
Beaver locked the door."
It's going to take her a little bit of time."
It says so.Then they hit the road, each carrying their own luggage on their shoulders.By the time they set out, the snow had stopped and the moon had come out.They lined up and walked forward, with Mr.
Beaver leading the way, followed by Lucy, followed by Peter, Susan, and Mrs.
Beaver.Mr.
Beaver led the group across the embankment to the right bank of the creek, and then to a rugged and winding path in the woods below the bank.Illuminated by the moonlight, the tall and steep cliffs on both sides of the valley rise into the sky."
We went down as far as we could," said Mr.
Beaver, "and her sleigh couldn't ride underneath, so she had to go up." ”At this moment, if you sit leisurely in an armchair and look out of the window, you can see all this beautiful scenery.However, it came to this point, and although Lucy was still appreciative of it at first, as she walked farther and farther, she began to feel that the backpack on her back was getting heavier and heavier, and she even began to wonder if she could hold on.The river and the curtain of water were frozen, whether it was the bright and dazzling glacier, or the clumps of snow on the tops of the trees, or even the moon and stars shining in the sky, she turned a blind eye, and she kept staring at Mr.
Beaver's little short legs as he walked in the snow, as if they would never stop.Later, the moon disappeared and the snow began to fall again.By the end of the day, Lucy was so tired that she was about to fall asleep as she walked.Suddenly, she noticed that Mr.
Beaver had left the river bank and was walking to the right, and he had led them up the steep hill as best he could, into a dense thicket.When she came to her senses, she found that Mr.
Beaver was digging into a small hole in the hillside, which was almost completely blocked by the bushes, and could only be seen when she walked near the hole.By the time she began to understand what was going on, all she could see was its short, flattened tail.Lucy quickly bent down and crawled in after it, as she heard a rush of crawling and rapid breathing behind her.It didn't take long for all five of them to burrow into the hole."
What the hell is this place?"
asked Peter, his voice sounding very tired and weak in the dark, and I think you should know what I mean by weak voice."
It's an ancient hideout used when a beaver was in distress," Mr.
Beaver said, "and it's a big secret for us."
Although the conditions of the place are not very good, we have to get a good night's sleep for a few hours. ”"If you weren't all so scrambling before you left, I'd have brought a few pillows."

Mrs.
Beaver said.It was no comparison to Mr.
Tumnas's grotto, and Lucy thought it was only a cave, but it was dry and dirty.The hole was so small that when they all lay down, the ground was covered with fur and clothes.After this long journey, their bodies also became warmer, and they felt quite comfortable lying down in this relaxed way, and of course, the ground in this hole could be a little more flat.Then, Mrs.
Beaver passed a small, long-necked bottle in the dark, and everyone took a sip of this thing into the mouth, which was really choking, and when they drank it, their throats and eyes were hot, but after swallowing it in their stomachs, they immediately felt a kind of comfortable warmth, and everyone soon fell asleep.Lucy felt as if it had only been a short time, but in fact it had been hours, and when she woke up she felt cold and very stiff, and she wished she could take a hot shower.Then she felt herself tickled with her long beard, and then she saw a cold ray of sunlight shining through the hole, and she was immediately completely conscious.By this time, everyone had woken up, and in fact they all sat up dumbfounded, and they heard the sound that they had been thinking about the night when they were on their way, and sometimes they thought they had heard it, and that was the sound of the bell.Mr.
Beaver burrowed out of the hole the moment he heard the sound.Maybe you'll be like Lucy and think he's stupid at this moment.However, this is actually a very clever thing to do, and Mr.
Beaver knows very well that he will not be noticed by the other party when he is hiding in the bushes, and the point is that he can carefully observe which way the witch's sleigh is heading.The rest of the people sat in the cave anxiously waiting for news of it.After about five minutes, a sound came, and everyone immediately panicked, and then they heard the conversation."
Oh," thought Lucy, "it must have been discovered, she had taken it," but to their surprise, they heard someone calling out to them at the entrance of the cave."
No problem," cried it there, "come out quickly, Mrs.
Beaver, for the sons of Adam and the daughters of Eve are all right, it is not hers." ”It sounds a bit confusing, but when the beavers get excited, they speak incoherently, and I mean the beavers in that world, because in our world, beavers don't speak at all.So the children and Mrs.
Beaver hurried out of the hole.The sun shone on the snow, and the reflection made them blink, and everyone looked dirty, covered in dirt, and everyone looked sleepy-eyed, neither washing their faces nor grooming."
Come here," cried Mr.
Beaver, who danced with joy, "come and see, this is a terrible blow to the witch, and it seems that her power is about to collapse." ”"What the hell does this mean, Mr.
Beaver," asked Peter breathlessly when everyone had climbed the steep hill."
Didn't I tell you before," replied Mr.
Beaver, "that she magically turned the year into winter here, and it was never Christmas, and I told you, well, well, now come and see." ”Everyone stood on the top of the hill and looked in the direction of its fingers.There were a few reindeer pulling a sleigh with bells hanging on their harnesses.These reindeer appear to be much larger than the witch's reindeer, and the color is not pure white, it is the kind of brown.On the sleigh sat a tall man, dressed in a bright red robe as red as holly, with a fur-lined hood and a snow-white beard hanging down from his chest as if it were covered with foam.As soon as you see him, you immediately recognize him, and everyone knows him, and although only in Narnia can you really see people like him, but in our world, even in the world outside the wardrobe, we have also seen his portrait, and we often hear people talk about him.But when you see the real him in Narnia, it feels different.In our world, people draw Santa Claus as funny and funny, but now, when children stand in front of him and stare at him, they think it's not quite that.He is very burly, looks very happy, and is very real.The children became quiet, and although they were very excited at the moment, they remained serious."
I'm finally back," he said, "and she's been driving me away for years, but now I can finally come back in."
Aslan is starting to make a move, and the witch's magic is waning. ”Lucy suddenly felt her whole body tremble with joy.Know that this feeling is only possible when your state of mind is solemn and peaceful."
Alright."
Santa Claus said, "I have a gift for you."
Mrs.
Beaver, give you a new and better sewing machine, which I will bring to you when I pass by your house. ”"I beg your pardon, sir," said Mrs.
Beaver, with a curtsifi, "and we lock the door. ”"Locks and latches don't have any trouble for me.""
As for you, Mr.
Beaver, when you get home, you'll find that your have been completed, the cracks won't leak anymore, they've all been repaired, and they've installed a new sluice gate for you." ”Mr.
Beaver was stunned and fell into surprise, and was so happy that he could not say a word."
Adam's son, Peter."
Santa Claus said."
Yes, sir."
Peter replied."
These are gifts for you," Santa Claus said, "and these are tools, not toys."
Maybe soon you'll be able to come in handy, put them away properly. ”With that, he handed Peter a sword and a shield.The silver shield was carved with a galloping red lion, as red as a freshly ripe strawberry; The hilt was made of gold, and it was equipped with a scabbard and a belt to wear it, as well as everything else needed to use it, and the sword was of a size and weight that seemed to have been made for him.Peter accepted the gift with a serious expression, for he felt it was very serious."
Eve's daughter, Susan," said Santa Claus, "these are for you." ”He handed her a bow, a quiver full of arrows, and a small horn made of ivory."
This bow and these arrows are to be used only in case of emergency," he said to her, "because I am not going to take you to war."
It's a bow and an arrow, and once you pick up the horn, you'll get the help you need wherever you blow it. ”Finally he said, "Eve's daughter, Lucy." ”Lucy stepped forward.He handed her a small bottle that looked like glass, but it was later said to be made of diamonds, and a small dagger."
In this bottle," he said, "there is a panacea, made by refining the juice of a spark that grows on the hill of the sun, and a few drops of it can heal you, whatever your injuries or those of your relatives and friends."
This dagger is for your self-defense, as you don't need to go to war either. ”"Why can't I participate, sir," Lucy asked curiously, "I don't know, but I think I'll be very brave." ”"I didn't mean that," said Santa Claus, "and it's a very ugly act to drag a woman into war."
So now," he didn't look as serious as he had just now, "and there was something for all of you," he took out what I thought he had taken from the big pocket on his back, but no one could prove it a large tray with five sets of cutlery, a can of sugar cubes, a jar of cream, and a large piping hot teapot sizzling, and then he exclaimed, "Merry Christmas everybody, long live the real King," and with that, he raised the whip in his hand, and before they could react, He had already set off, and the sleigh pulled by the reindeer disappeared without a trace.Peter had just pulled his sword out of its scabbard and showed it to Mr.
Beaver, when Mrs.
Beaver said, "All right, all right, don't just stand there talking, and the tea will be cold in a while."
Men should look like men, come over and help me carry the tray down, we are ready to have breakfast, but luckily I brought the knife for cutting the bread. ”So, they walked down the steep hill and entered the cave again.Mr.
Beaver cut some bread and ham and made it into minced bread, and Mrs.
Beaver poured tea for everyone, and everyone ate with relish.However, not long after they had their meal, Mr.
Beaver said, "Now is the time to get moving." ”t1706231537:
