"Hobbits are like this, very timid, and very afraid of contact with strangers, they weren't like this before, it's just that after hundreds of years of comfortable life, they have forgotten what they are" Gandalf took a puff of his pipe again and said to Chu Ming, Chu Ming nodded, he naturally knew this, the hobbit is like an ostrich, when in danger, he will bury his head in the soil, and then when he can't see the enemy, They will think that their enemies will not see themselves, and they will seek a sense of security that is almost self-comforting.

"Pathetic race, it's hard for me to imagine how such a race can multiply, it seems that any race can go and enslave them, dwarves, humans, orcs, even hateful elves, or those treemen, dragons, goblins or whatever, such a race simply shouldn't exist" Thorin seemed to be very displeased with the weak and timid hobbits, and said to Chu Ming and Gandalf with disdain, Gandalf pursed his lips and didn't say anything, he actually thought in his heart, The hobbits here seem to live much better than the new dwarven tribe that Thorin formed under the Blue Mountains, the hobbits here at least don't have to worry about eating and drinking, and Thorin and the new tribe formed by the dwarves of the Lonely Mountain in the Blue Mountains are still suffering from chronic hunger, even dwarven princes like Thorin have to work as blacksmiths to make a living for themselves, not to mention the dwarves in the Blue Mountains, the dwarves don't know anything other than mining, iron, and fighting, they can't plant, they can't raise livestock, They don't even know how to hunt and fish, which makes life a difficult life for the dwarves.

Chu Ming didn't say anything, when the plot developed to the Lord of the Rings, it seemed that the dwarves had almost been wiped out, and there were only a few dwarf tribes left, and the dwarves completely no longer dominated Middle-earth, of course, these things Chu Ming would not say to Thorin.

"Gandalf, we've been friends for many years, and I won't doubt your decision, but I still have to ask you, do you really want to find a weak hobbit to be our snitch?" Thorin was very dissatisfied with the first hobbit, and gradually began to doubt the entire hobbit race, "Thorin, please trust my decision, hundreds of years ago the hobbits helped us defeat Sauron's army of orcs, they are the best snitch and scout candidates" Gandalf said something and said nothing, Thorin did not say anything more, because Gandalf's decision was always the right one.

Slowly, as Chu Ming and they continued to move forward, Chu Ming and they encountered more and more holes at the bottom of the bag, and there were more and more corresponding hobbits, one or two hobbits avoided Chu Ming and them after seeing them, and did not dare to contact Chu Ming and them, but when the hobbits increased, these hobbits became bold and began to point at Chu Ming and them, Thorin hated this feeling very much, and his face was gloomy and silent under the pointing of the hobbits, Gandalf kept nodding at the hobbits on the side of the road, and the famous hobbits were always screaming.

Finally, Chu Ming saw Bilbo sitting on a chair on the side of the road enjoying the sunshine and smoking a pipe a few hundred meters away, Bilbo's appearance was almost no different from the appearance in the original plot, Chu Ming knew that Bilbo was Gandalf's snitch candidate, and sure enough, after Gandalf saw Bilbo, he also smiled slightly, and then drove his horse to Bilbo's side, and then got off the horse himself, and coughed at Bilbo who was enjoying the sun with his eyes closed, Bilbo, who was already comfortable and about to fall asleep, heard Gandalf's cough, hurriedly opened his eyes, and then said, "I'm sorry, I'm not trying to occupy this chair, I know it's something common to everyone, if you want to bask in the sun here, I'll leave" Bilbo didn't look at Gandalf and said a lot of words, it seems that the hobbit really doesn't want to cause trouble for himself, and he hurriedly apologizes when he encounters something, the place where the hobbit lives is indeed a veritable harmonious community.

After Bilbo said a lot, he finally saw Chu Ming and Gandalf's appearance clearly, Bilbo was obviously stunned for a moment, and then unnaturally buttoned the corner of his eye, he didn't know what to say for a while, he almost didn't have much contact with races other than hobbits, "Good morning, everyone" Bilbo said embarrassedly, hobbits are like this, shy and don't know how to communicate, "It's almost noon now" Gandalf reminded Bilbo, "Then, then good noon" Bilbo was embarrassed and said hurriedly.

"Don't you have anything else to say but say hello?" Gandalf asked Bilbo, "That, that, then I wish you a good afternoon" Bilbo finished speaking and hurriedly walked towards his home, his expression was very flustered, the attribute of the house almost became a substantial existence in Bilbo's body, looking at Bilbo's panicked appearance when he left, Gandalf didn't say anything, but walked to Bilbo's door, and made a mark in front of his door, the mark faintly emitted a faint light under the shadow, "Fili, they'll come to the Shire tonight, right?" Gandalf asked Thorin.

"Of course, we dwarves have always kept our promises, we do what we say" Thorin said very proudly, "Okay, let's leave first, it seems that we scared our snitch a lot just now" Gandalf said to Chu Ming and Thorin, Thorin glanced at his mouth with disdain, "Why do you think he will be our snitch, there are so many hobbits here, we may be able to find a few bold" Thorin said to Gandalf, "Thorin, I know Bilbo's grandfather, He is a very good snitch, Bilbo's ancestors were the leaders of the snitch of humans, dwarves, and elves, and the skills of adventure and theft have long been buried in Bilbo's bones, believe me, no one is more suitable as our snitch than Bilbo" Gandalf said to Thorin, who didn't say anything.

"Anyway, this adventure must be successful, you need to reclaim the glory of your ancestors, and the coalition forces also need to get the Lonely Mountain and Long Lake Town as strategic points to resist the orc army in the north, without the Lonely Mountain, we will have no more suitable place to use as a fortress to block the orc army from moving south, as the dwarven former royal city, the Lonely Mountain has almost the most powerful defense in the world" Gandalf said to Thorin, who heard Gandalf's words and his eyes became extremely lonely, "Yes, Lone Mountain, what a great being, but still unable to resist the creature's claws and flames" Gandalf didn't say anything when Thorin said this.

Then Chu Ming and Gandalf left together, Gandalf also felt a hint of hunger, and seemed to want to find something to eat, as for the dwarves' meeting, it was at night.

Bilbo breathed a long sigh of relief after seeing Chu Ming and them leave through the window, no way, he was really afraid of dealing with strangers, especially people who were not of the same race as himself, time passed little by little, the night came, the mark that Gandalf left on Bilbo's door exuded onlookers in the moonlight, Bilbo carefully cut a fish, and then baked a fresh and fluffy bread, plus grinded a cup of mellow coffee, and put on his napkin with great satisfaction, Then when he picked up his knife and fork and was about to start his dinner, there was a knock on the door of "Bang Bang Bang", and Bilbo was stunned, hobbits are not very sociable, they rarely go to the neighbor's house at night, even between good friends, this is their racial nature.

"Who could it be? At this time, it is said that everyone should be enjoying their own dinner at this time" Bilbo muttered, but still came to the door, opened his own door, and opened the door Bilbo was stunned for a moment, because standing in front of him was a majestic dwarf with a hammer, "Dewarin, excuse me" The dwarf reported his name, and then pushed away Bilbo who was blocking the door and walked into Bilbo's room, Bilbo was stunned, he didn't remember inviting the dwarf into his room, When Bilbo came to his senses, he saw that Dwalin had eaten his fish clean, and even threw the head into his mouth, and the coffee was poured into Dwalin in one gulp.

"Well, who are you? Why come to my home? I don't seem to have invited you, so, excuse me, can you" Bilbo tried to organize his own language and wanted to ask Dwalin out, but he just couldn't say the words "please leave" directly, and while Bilbo was still struggling, there was a knock on the door again, "Who is it?" Bilbo was stunned again, and then opened the door, "Bahrain, wait for your dispatch" An old dwarf with a white beard appeared in front of Bilbo's door, and then Bahrain also walked into Bilbo's house by himself, Bilbo was stunned again, Bahrain and Dwalin touched their heads fiercely, as if they had said hello, and then began to continuously move the food out of Bilbo's warehouse.

"I said, I'm sorry, you," Bilbo hadn't finished speaking, when there was another knock on the door, "who is it?" Bilbo couldn't help but bring three points of anger, he felt that his life was disrupted, "Phili, Kiri, wait for the dispatch" Then the twin dwarves appeared in front of Bilbo, Fili and Chili also got into Bilbo's room, and then twelve dwarves got into Bilbo's bag bottom pit one after another, and suddenly the pit at the bottom of the bag that was still a little deserted instantly became lively, watching the food and furniture of his house being moved around, Bilbo kept saying' I'm sorry', he wanted to stop this, but he couldn't stop anything.

"Dangdangdang" Bilbo's door rang again, "I'm really going crazy!" Bilbo turned his back to the dwarves and shouted, and then opened the door, Chu Ming, Gandalf and Thorin, the three of them appeared in front of Bilbo, "Oh, dear Mr. Bilbo, we meet again, my name is Gandalf, I am a wizard, this is Mr. Chu Ming, from the far east, and this is Thorin, thank you for your hospitality" Gandalf finished speaking and took the lead and squeezed into Bilbo's pouch pit, with Chu Ming and Gandalf's height, he almost walked with his head down in the pouch.

"No, when did I say I was going to entertain you," Bilbo was about to cry, because the dwarves had brought out all his food, especially the fat dwarf named Pombo like a ball, and he didn't have to chew the food, but stuffed it into his mouth.
