The east will be white, and the town of Changhu is in the white mist.

The dwarven expedition was already ready, and the lonely mountain was close at hand, and they had no intention of sleeping.

Led by Gandalf, Thorin and the others boarded the fishing boat prepared by the mayor of Longlake Town, and left Longlake Town under the mayor's expectant gaze.

The closer you get to the lonely mountain, the more emotional the dwarves become.

They're finally back.

The town of River Valley was just above the town of Long Lake, a distance of five or six thousand meters in total, and the boats were moving at the fastest speed, and after half an hour they gradually approached the shore.

Stepping onto the land in front of Riverdale City, the dwarves, including Thorin, had red eyes and faint tears rolling in their eyes.

Looking at the large scorch marks on the city wall, Baggins swallowed.

Along the way, he listened to Sauron and the others talk about the evil dragon Smaug, and of course he knew that the scorch marks on the wall were left by the baptism of dragon fire.

"Let's go, let's go back to Lonely Mountain."

With that, Thorin led the dwarves into Riverdale, with Baggins following closely behind.

Not as excited as the dwarves, Gandalf walked last, and at the same time noticed the marks on the ground, although not very obvious, and washed by the rain, but he was sure that this was not a trace left by humans, and something had recently come to the lonely mountain.

Very big only ......

For a moment, Gandalf's gaze became extremely vigilant.

The Dwarven Expedition took twenty minutes to pass through Riverdale City, reaching the high mountain behind Riverdale City, and looking ahead, it was greeted by the magnificent Lonely Mountain.

Quaint doorway.

It was the masterpiece of the dwarves of yesteryear, the glory of the dwarves, the splendor of the dwarves.

However, the dwarves were only excited for a few seconds, and a few words from Gandalf pulled them back to reality.

"Didn't you notice something was wrong?

Looking closely, it seemed that the gate of the Lonely Mountain had been destroyed, and the residents of Changhu Town were not mistaken, and Smaug rushed out of the Lonely Mountain. ”

Hearing this, Thorin looked towards the lonely mountain, although he couldn't see clearly, he could faintly see that the gate seemed to be really wrong.

Coming back to his senses, Thorin hurriedly descended the stairs and quickly rushed towards the lonely mountain.

The dwarves followed without hesitation, and Baggins looked at Gandalf with some fear.

Gandalf shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "No one can stop them, the way back has almost become their obsession, let's go with them." ”

Thousands of meters apart, the dwarves sprinted for more than ten minutes and finally arrived at the gate of Lonely Mountain City.

At this moment, the city gate was broken, and huge stones were piled up in the doorway to block the entrance, and it looked like a ruin.

"Thorin, it's not completely blocked here, you can get in!"

At the corner of the gate, Fili shouted, and the people of Thorin hurried over.

The stone pillars were stuck in the city gate, revealing an entrance through which the stairs of the palace could be faintly seen.

Suddenly, the dwarves' breathing became rapid.

"Thorin ......"

Thorin raised his arms, looked at everyone, and said solemnly: "We don't know, if the dragon is in it or not, if you go in, you may never be able to come out." ”

"Thorin, we all know that the expedition is meaningless, but we still participated without hesitation, just to come back and see, the former glory of the dwarf race, even if we die, there is no regret."

"Okay."

Thorin took a deep breath and was the first to burrow into the palace, the dwarves following closely behind, and Baggins hesitated a little, then followed in.

Knock knock knock......

Boots on the ground, heavy footsteps echoing through the silent palace, and Baggins had just passed through the stone pile, and when the light was bright, he saw the dwarves standing at the mouth of the stairs like puppets.

When he stepped out of the stone pile, he was greeted by mountains of gold and silver, and brilliant jewels spread all the way to the end of the palace.

"Boom."

Standing at the mouth of the stairs, Baggins kept swallowing his saliva, his eyes full of shock.

Gandalf held his staff in his hand, looking at the mountains of gold and silver, not only did he not have a trace of surprise, but he was full of solemnity.

The wealth in the Lonely Mountain is cursed.

Thinking of the topic he had discussed with Baggins yesterday, Gandalf felt that he had miscalculated, that the treasure had indeed been planted with a curse, but that the curse had been planted by Thor himself.

Licking his dry lips, Baggins whispered, "The dragon doesn't seem to be in the palace. ”

"Go,

Just go

Find the Arkon Gem. ”

Thorin watched eagerly, and the members of the Dwarven Expedition followed his orders and stepped into the gold and silver jewels in search of the Akon Gem.

Thorin casually picked up a piece of Mithril Inner Armor and put it in Baggins' hand, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother, this Mithril Inner Armor is worth enough to buy the entire Charr, and the palace is our treasure, you can choose at will." ”

"This ......

This......

Not so good. ”

As he spoke, Baggins was already clutching a few gems in his hand.

Seeing that he was upright, Thorin had a smile on his face, although he didn't know what happened and why the dragon had left the Lonely Mountain, but everything didn't matter.

He returned to the Lonely Mountain, and all the treasures of the Lonely Mountain belonged to him.

In the blink of an eye, half an hour passed.

Holding a pile of gold and silver jewelry, Baggins sat on the stairs, looked at Gandalf smoking a big cigarette, and said, "Don't you have anything you want?" ”

"I'm wondering, why did the dragon leave?"

Gandalf shook his head, his eyes scanning the hall around the hall, unable to think of a reason.

Baggins looked stunned and said, "It's not good, the dragon is gone, the dwarves have recaptured the lonely mountain, and Thorin's dream has come true." ”

"Mr. Baggins, you're right, that's what ordinary people should think.

The expedition is over, but the whole thing is not, the war is inevitable, and if Thorin finds the Arkon Gem, he can command the rest of the dwarves. ”

"Akon Gem?"

Having heard Thorin mention it earlier, Baggins was full of curiosity.

Gandalf thought for a moment and said: "The Akon Gem is also known as the 'Heart of the Lonely Mountain', which is unique in the world, and of course it is needless to say how precious it is, but it is also a symbol of power in the Kingdom of the Lonely Mountain Dwarves, and its political status is of great significance, far exceeding its own value, because the Dwarves of Zhongzhou have sworn allegiance to the holder of the Akon Gem. ”

"Allegiance?"

"Yes, there are 7 tribes of the Dwarves in Midstate, and Thorin Oak Shield belongs to the most powerful tribe of the Dwarves of Turin.

At first, they lived in the Moria Mine, but by the time of Turin VI, they had mined Mithril too deeply, which alarmed the underground Fire Demons, and Turin VI was killed, and his son was also killed the following year, and his grandson went to the Lonely Mountain to escape the Fire Demons. ”

Baggins pondered for a moment and asked curiously, "Thorin's ancestors? ”

"Well, Thorin's ancestors came to the Lonely Mountain to become the King of the Mountain, and dug up the Heart of the Mountain Arkon Gem in the Lonely Mountain, and since then the Akon Gem has become the heirloom of the King of the Mountain, and the other dwarves have also sworn allegiance to the King of the Mountain who owns the Akon Gem."

Taking a big puff and exhaling a cloud of smoke rings, Gandalf told Baggins the story when he was idle.

At that time, no one thought that the Akon gem would be so politically valuable, so they casually complimented the treasure of the king of the mountain, but they did not expect that it would become an obstacle for Turin to dispatch other dwarves in the future, until one thing happened.

This is what happened after the Akon Gem was taken by the dragon.

Thorin's grandfather was killed by Azog, and Thorne vowed revenge, so he gathered all the heirs of Turin and the dwarves of the other tribes to launch the Battle of Athanubisa.

The battle was extremely difficult, but fortunately, the descendants of the other dwarves also came to their aid, and the orcs were defeated.

After the victory, Thorin wanted to continue the pursuit and reclaim Moria, but the dwarves of the other tribes retreated and told Thorin that only the heirs of Turin who possessed the Akon Gem could mobilize the dwarven army.

In reality, they were just afraid of the Firedemons.

I didn't expect a previous compliment to become like this.

The Arkon Gem fell into the hands of the dragon, so Thorin returned to the Blue Mountains and continued his life as a striking-iron until he appeared in your home. ”
