Chapter 45: The Queen's Gift

Galadriel stared at Xiao Yechen and did not hide his curious gaze.

After a long time, Xiao Yechen coughed dryly, was a little embarrassed, and said with a little embarrassment: "That, Your Majesty, you won't come just to see me, right?" ”

Galadriel's keen insight made Xiao Yechen a little overwhelmed, so he quickly staggered the topic and asked the empress directly.

"Yes and no!"

"Originally, I was just going to come over to see the mysterious Mr. Xiao in Mithlanda's mouth, but now, I want to ask Mr. Xiao to do me a favor!" As he spoke, Galadriel had an inscrutable smile on his face.

"Oh? I don't know what I have to serve Her Majesty? With a hint of surprise, Xiao Yechen said curiously.

The Empress walked to the cliff and looked at the tempting moonlight outside the waterfall, with a little caution, "I have been uneasy lately, and I feel a shocking conspiracy and darkness about to descend. In a trance, I seemed to see the flames of war burning, and the earth and creatures wailing! ”

"So, Gandalf and I are ready to probe the source of the darkness and find out if our enemies have returned! During this time, I would like to ask Mr. Xiao to protect these dwarves. If you reach the Lonely Mountain, it is best to kill Smaug to prevent it from causing heavy casualties. ”

"Besides, if there is a war, please help the whole of Middle-earth, which has already suffered too much!"

Galadriel's voice was beautiful and soft, and her temperament was elegant, and although it was a request, what people heard was like a discussion between friends, and people couldn't bear to refuse.

Xiao Yechen grinned, this request, even if Galadriel didn't say it, he would do it, after all, it was related to his task.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely do my best to do these things!"

Galadriel's smile became even stronger when he heard this, his beautiful face was like a snow lotus quietly blooming, beautiful and incomprehensible, and said happily: "I know that Mr. Xiao is kind-hearted, and he will definitely not refuse!" However, as a token of appreciation, you can make a request, and as long as my elves can do it, I will not refuse! ”

Galadriel's words made Xiao Yechen stunned, and then he smiled, "This is not ......"

Just about to refuse, he suddenly thought of something, Xiao Yechen's tone changed, and he asked: "Since the empress is in love, then Xiao Yechen is not welcome!" I wonder if the Empress has any treasures that can increase her lifespan? ”

While speaking, Xiao Yechen's eyes lit up slightly, and he stared at each other expectantly.

Galadriel didn't say much after hearing this, and after a moment of silence, he came to Xiao Yechen and stretched out his right hand and handed it to him.

"Your Majesty, what is this?" Xiao Yechen's face was surprised, looking at the turquoise bottle lying in her palm, and asked with some excitement.

"This is the holy water of my elves, the fountain of life! Every elf has a chance to use it once as they grow old to get a new lease of life! ”

Taking the bottle, Xiao Yechen was shocked, this is definitely a treasure, although I don't know what effect it has on ordinary people, but it is absolutely extraordinary when I think about it.

"I wonder what this does for me?"

"The Fountain of Life contains a powerful life force, and when consumed, it can provide a lifespan of three hundred years for any non-elven being!"

"What? Three... Three hundred years?! ”

Xiao Yechen was ecstatic in his heart, and he was so excited that he was almost speechless. Holding the bottle in his hand tightly, he was a little flattered by such a heavy gift, he was just asking on a whim, but he didn't expect such a big gain!

Galadriel left, and Xiao Yechen immediately opened the bottle and drank the fountain of life.

There is only one drop of the fountain of life, and after entering the mouth, an indescribable feeling erupts in Xiao Yechen's mouth, with the fragrance of trees, the fragrance of flowers, and the sweetness of the spring.

Flowing down his throat, Xiao Yechen only felt a chill that penetrated deep into his soul swept through his stomach and his whole body, and his whole life seemed to be purified, and the wonderful feeling made Xiao Yechen addicted for a while.

After a long time, Xiao Yechen opened his eyes and found that the world in front of him seemed to be clearer, and his body seemed to be more full of vitality.

Back at the dinner, not long after Xiao Yechen sat down, Solin came to him and said eagerly: "Mr. Xiao, the secret of the map has been solved, and the time is already very short, let's hurry up and get on the road!" ”

If it weren't for the secret of the map, Thorin, who was already at odds with the elves, wouldn't have come here at all. Now that the goal has been achieved, Thorin is no longer willing to endure it, and it is imperative to leave!

Xiao Yechen nodded when he heard this, he knew that time was pressing, and if he didn't hurry, he might really miss it, so he didn't hesitate immediately, and left Rivendell with a group of dwarves.

Trekking all the way through mountains and rivers, crossing rivers and bridges, the journey is tiring. Fortunately, everyone is a strong-hearted person and suffers hardship, so the team is also approaching the lonely mountain day by day.

On this day, the wind and thunder were blowing, and the dark clouds covered the sky, and the dwarf team came to a barren mountain cliff.

Suddenly, a loud sound of the sky cracking pierced the sky, and in the clouds and mist, Xiao Yechen faintly saw two behemoths as tall as mountains fighting.

The huge body has great power with a wave of his hand, and throwing a boulder at will is a disaster for Xiao Yechen and his party.

The rocks are flying, the mountains and rocks are shattering, the scene is like the end of the world, in the face of such an existence, it is really a rubbing injury and touching death.

Even Xiao Yechen could only sigh powerlessly when he saw such a creature in the face.

Fortunately, everyone was in good hands, and after a thrilling dodge, the group managed to cross the cliff.

At night, the party rests in the cave, but is pulled underground by a trap dug by a goblin goblin hidden underground, and arrives in the goblin kingdom.

Looking at the dense goblins around him, Xiao Yechen's eyes flashed, and he knew that at the bottom of this cave, there was a magic ring.

Xiao Yechen, who had long had the idea of winning the ring, deliberately fell into the abyss below when he was fighting with the goblins.

"Mr. Xiao?" The dwarves were shocked, they didn't expect Xiao Yechen to fall, how could this be good?!

Xiao Yechen, who fell into the abyss, saw that he was about to hit the ground, his eyebrows and thoughts erupted, turning into thugs and grabbing the rock walls on both sides, under the effect of this force, Xiao Yechen landed safely, looking for the existence of the magic ring in the tunnel.

"Gollum! Grunt! ”

In the tunnel, Xiao Yechen walked for less than a few minutes when he heard a strange sound in front of him.

"It's—grunt!" With a smile on his face, Xiao Yechen hurried forward. Soon, he saw Gollum at the edge of the underground lake.

At the same time that he saw the other party, Gollum also saw Xiao Yechen, and a "Gollum" sounded, Gollum shouted "food", picked up a stone and strode towards Xiao Yechen.

"Look for death!" Xiao Yechen snorted coldly in his heart, and at the moment when Gollum was close, he slammed a palm knife on the other party's neck, knocking him unconscious, and then found a golden ring in his pocket.

"Is this the One Ring?"
