第十章：熊

马瓜看着邓肯和爱丽丝。
他笑着向他们走去。
突然，熊出现在房间里。
它很快抓住了马瓜。马瓜动不了。
他不能转身。
邓肯跑向休伦人。
他把马瓜的胳膊绑了起来。然后他把马瓜的脚绑了起来。
马瓜开始说话，但邓肯把一块布塞进他嘴里。
鹰眼摘下了熊的头。
“我们必须快点走，”他说。“爱丽丝，你要盖条毯子。你就是那个生病的休伦女人。然后你就可以离开休伦家的村子了。”
鹰眼又戴上了熊的头。
爱丽丝在头上盖了一条毯子。
邓肯把爱丽丝抱出了山洞。
鹰眼跟着邓肯。
休伦酋长在山洞外面。
“我要把那个生病的女人带走，”邓肯说。“明天我把她带到你家来。”
鹰眼、邓肯和爱丽丝离开了村庄。
然后鹰眼把邓肯和爱丽丝领到一条小路上。
“这条路通向一条小河。”鹰眼对他们说。“你会看到一座山。特拉华人的村庄在小山附近。你和特拉华人在一起会很安全的。”
“你打算怎么办？”邓肯问。
“我必须回去找乌卡斯。”鹰眼说。
村子里一片漆黑。
休伦人都在自己的屋里。他们都睡着了。
鹰眼在找昂卡斯。
侦察员穿着熊皮。
他找遍了所有的建筑。
然后他看见两个人在一所房子外面。
他们是卫兵。但是他们都睡着了。
鹰眼悄悄地进了屋。
乌卡斯躺在地板上。
他的手脚被绳子捆着。
鹰眼摘下了熊的头。
昂卡斯笑了。
“鹰眼。”他平静地说。
鹰眼解开了恩卡斯的手脚。
然后他脱下熊的皮。
恩卡斯和鹰眼飞快地跑出了村子。
“我们去特拉华人的村子，”鹰眼说。
“是的!乌卡斯说。“特拉华人是我祖父的孩子。他们会帮助我们的。”
第二天早上，休伦人去找乌卡斯。
他们要杀了他。
他们找到了熊皮。但是他们没有找到莫希干人。
然后他们去了山洞。
他们发现了一个死去的女人。但是他们没有找到爱丽丝。
他们找到了马瓜。他的手脚被绑住了。
一块布在他嘴里。
休伦人解开了麦格纳的手脚。
他们从他嘴里拿走了布。
马瓜很生气。
“现在就杀了那个莫希干囚犯！”他喊道。
“他走了，”一个酋长说。
马瓜生气地喊道。他跑出了山洞。
