Gandalf's actions made Thorin angry, but he was both angry and worried. www.biquge.info He didn't want to admit it, but he had to admit that the wizard, who he disliked more and more, had become an indispensable part of his adventure, because he knew all the plans, and he couldn't ignore them if he wanted to.

Compared to Thorin's complex thoughts, Ling Qi's thoughts were much simpler.

Even if what happened to Bilbo was not what he wanted, he didn't care about the outcome, just as he thought when he made the decision.

What does it have to do with Bilbo's serious injury, death or explosion, and what does it have to do with him? That hobbit can't even affect the normal progress of the team, let alone the wizard's determination!

The more he learned about the history of Middle-earth, the more Ling Qi believed in his own means.

He knew that Gandalf would not give up on this adventure, let alone cause trouble.

Regardless of his relationship with Bilbo, or what he treated him for, Gandalf's identity meant that his goals would be almost impossible to change.

Ling Qi had never feared that the elves would pose a threat to them, Gandalf was one of the guarantees, and his understanding of the elves' virtues was also the key.

The elves of Rivendell and Lothlorin are generally friendly, while the latter may be a little worse, and the former will certainly not attack their former allies at will.

The war against Morgoth and Sauron was tens of thousands of years ago, and I don't know how many generations have passed for humans and dwarves, and they have long forgotten that they fought side by side with other races. For some elves, it's as clear as yesterday.

As for Thorin's alleged allies who had betrayed the dwarves, strictly speaking, it was only the Dark Forest, not the entire elven race, but he hated all the elves.

The elves of the Dark Forest are the only ones who are likely to be hostile to them, and not just because of the little trouble they have with the dwarves. From the elven king of the dark forest, Thrandil, to the ordinary elves in the dense forest, it seems that they are no longer pure elves, but have been stained with some aggressive dark sides.

Luckily, in that place, he had a very good chess piece, very useful!

When they came to the Misty Mountain Range again, although it was no longer the same section, and it was at least two or three hundred kilometers away from the position they had climbed before, Ling Qi was still shocked by the cliff that covered the sky and the sun!

Six months ago, the trio were fortunate enough to start climbing before their individual strength was weakened, and then left the mountain range in the second half of the tunnel.

Otherwise, if you still want to climb down the surface of the mountain like when you go up the mountain, it is really enough to hang, and you may get lost in the mountains!

The Misty Mountains are known to the world, but their vastness is known only to those who have experienced it!

Unlike the narrow mountains shown on the map, the Misty Mountains are not at all like a screen, cut off from the earth, and the easiest way to get through them is to turn them over from side to side.

The average width of this thousand-mile mountain range is also twenty or thirty miles, which means that when you climb to the top of a certain peak, if the wind and snow that do not disperse all year round in the air at an altitude of several thousand meters fades, and when the thick clouds are lifted by the sun, what you can see will not be the vast world on the other side of the mountain range, but countless magnificent wonders and peaks carved by countless ghosts and natural carvings!

A misty mountain range, and I don't know how many secrets are hidden.

Some scholars have shown that by occupying only one-third of the Misty Mountains, you can build a large empire between the mountains and in the crypts that is not much inferior to Rohan and Gondor!

Is it possible that the Misty Mountains occupy a third of the Misty Mountains?

As strong as an elf, it is just a certain section of the mountain range, on the edge of a natural pass, and in a naturally formed valley, to establish a pure land that is truly isolated from the world.

Imratri, Rivendell, the elven race's last sanctuary in Middle-earth!

The highest pass, as the name suggests, is an extremely high place if you want to turn over.

Facing the steep path that sloped upward, Thorin was always on the right and left, fearing that an elf or two would pop out of some corner.

Ling Qi had hoped for that, but reason told him that there would be no elves waiting for them boringly.

Although the old thief's map shows that Rivendell is not far from the highest pass, only a line away.

However, judging by the fact that it can be the last refuge of the most mysterious and famous elves east of the sea, it is clear that this place is not so easy to find.

Occasionally, there are people passing through the highest passes, and it is absolutely impossible to have much intersection with Rivendell on the path.

The elves probably have other secret passages in and out of Rivendell, and Gandalf may know about it, but no one in the team knows about it at the moment. The guy who traded the map to Ling Qi, who claimed to be one of the most experienced thieves in Middle-earth, had never been to Rivendell himself, and he was deeply sorry!

"I heard that the elves guard the highest pass to prevent evil forces from taking advantage of this passage. ”

Thorin no longer concealed his worries, let alone pretending to be calm, and switched back to his role.

"That was many years ago. Don't worry, even if there are still elves guarding the pass, they won't let us see it. ”

Stubborn dwarves will also drink and make friends with humans.

Most of the proud elves hate to be able to distance themselves from other races forever, although it is impossible to do so in Middle-earth.

Thorin nodded, then turned to speak to his companion in dwarven language, on guard and vigilance.

Ling Qi only knew the lingua franca of the mainland and a small amount of Sinda Elf, and he was slightly displeased when he heard it, but he didn't say anything.

The two teammates and their entourage were also instructed to dismount and bring their respective equipment and necessary supplies. In addition to leaving two people to be responsible for sending the horses that could not cross the mountain back to the land of honey, the group set off again.

It was difficult to walk on the winding mountain path, and it didn't take long for the team to be pulled into a serpentine zigzag.

"Hey, Lynch, did you know that in the place we passed by before, there lived a mysterious creature in the village, who was said to be able to turn into a beast and a giant bear!"

Bahrain, whose nose was blown red by the clammy and cold air, suddenly chatted with Ling Qi behind him.

The way up the mountain was the dwarves first, and they thought they were better at it, Thorin was the leader, and Bahrain was the back.

"Oh, we didn't meet each other. ”

Ling Qi responded curiously, he didn't expect that there would be a druid similar existence in this world, so he didn't know if it was such a talent, or some kind of acquired skill.

He actually does, but that's just to remove the disguise of a human being and completely activate the demonic bloodline.

If he can capture this strange creature and systematically study it, it may help him to a certain extent.

"It's a good thing that I haven't met it~ I heard that after this kind of skin-changing person turns into a beast, he is completely irrational and will attack anything he sees. ”

Balin was angry, he was old, and he didn't have a special bloodline, so his physical strength was a little bad.

Ling Qi nodded, it seemed that this creature was more like a werewolf, maybe some kind of bear man.

"Changing the skin~ Just change the appearance, maybe the inside is the way it has changed, but it's an appropriate name. ”

Ling Qi muttered, not knowing what came to mind.

"By the way, Bahrain, how do you know so much about this kind of thing?"

Ling Qi suddenly asked curiously, if you remember correctly, although Bahrain has a wealth of knowledge, it is only due to life experience.

He shouldn't have known so much about the accurate information of the secret races. Or, if he had known about it, he would have bragged about it everywhere.

The Skin-Changeling, even the old thief's map didn't show any Skin-Changing Territory, how could he know!

"Hah!"

Bahrain laughed, and when the team passed the corner of a mountain road, he was only a few steps behind, and whispered to Ling Qi mysteriously:

"Actually, that's what Gandalf told me, just the other day. ”

Gandalf, Balin is well aware that his companions probably don't want to hear that name yet.

Ling Qi nodded, his expression a little playful.

"It seems that our wizard knows all the problems that may be encountered on the road! I just don't know why, he suddenly left to visit a friend, and when he returned, he attracted a large group of wolf riders!"

His words are skillful, and his intentions are not sinister.

Bahrain's face darkened, but he still commented pertinently:

"Wizards are naturally knowledgeable. As for the orcs, it was probably just an accident. ”

Ling Qi was cold in his heart, knowing that Old Balin and Thorin actually had similar worries, but they refused to admit it.

"Maybe. ”

Ling Qi muttered a casual word, and then he suddenly looked up at the sky in front of him, which was a lofty mountain in the distance, a large dark cloud was pressing down on the enemy city, and blue and white lightning shuttled between the clouds.

"It's going to be windy!! be careful!!"

Thorin's voice rang out from the front, causing a slight panic among the guards, who had always been calm.

The road under your feet is difficult enough, the widest part of the winding mountain path is less than three feet, one side is a cliff, the other is a cliff, if you are not careful, you will be crushed.

If there is another storm in this kind of ghost place, it will not let people live!

The dwarves who are stable and often travel through the tunnels in the mountains are just that, even experienced adventurers must be recognized.

At this time, you can see that Thorin is a person.

He reminded the dwarves again, and soon the dwarves' ranks huddled together, helping each other, but not helping the humans who needed more help.

This made the captain of the guard, Farryn, dissatisfied, and even if he didn't actually give any help, he always had to show something.

He had the guards walk in the dwarven way, and the latter tugged at the former's belt, which made the guards feel less terrified of the unusual weather that was yet to come.

Ling Qi and the three of them didn't care about this level of predicament at all, even if with their strength at the moment, if they wanted to climb over a steep cliff seven or eight thousand meters high with their bare hands, they might not be dead or alive.

If there is a road under your feet, the environment is almost afraid of something.

Except for the three of Ling Qi, the one who is most suitable in this kind of place and seems to be at home is the half-grown boy Nitin.

Sure enough, the light footsteps should not just say that there is no sound between walking, but that the steps are so light that there is no sound when walking, the same result, different meanings.

Probably, hobbits would do better than humans in this kind of place.

Ling Qi looked back at the guards who were extremely brave in battle, but now they were trembling, and thought to himself.

They don't know that they only have a year or two left to live, and if they do, they still have a fear of death. After all, the battlefield is dominated by personal strength, and after being inexplicably instilled with some concepts such as loyalty, the improvement of physical fitness is very obvious, and it is natural not to feel afraid to bully the weak with sophisticated equipment, but this is not real bravery.

Courage doesn't require many conditions, just fearlessness.

Now, it's not whoever has the strength to live longer!
