Chapter IX Principles
"Legolas........." Fang Senyan directly ignored the ridicule of the reef, and he silently recited the name a few times, "Isn't this guy a member of the Fellowship?" ”。
"yes!" Reef nodded and said: "This guy is tall and handsome in appearance, super strong, it is estimated that even the strong orc Luz will be suppressed by him in archery, and he is even stronger than Luz in close combat......... Why can't I find a reason for the Misty Song to reject him at all? ”
"Shut up." Fang Senyan rolled his eyes and said very simply: "These cloud-like advantages are my only advantage: in front of one hour and thirty-eight minutes, they will all be defeated - little Mr. Gimli!" We were ready, and my companion said he was strong enough to carry two people's goods by himself! ”
"Boss...... You've gone too far! It's a naked revenge! ”
Next, Fang Senyan and Jiao Shi changed their clothes, well, of course, they didn't dress up as princes to meet the princess, their identities were now caravan buddies. Let's put it this way, it's a combination of groom + porter + servant + bodyguard + cleaner + warehouse manager, if you wear a suit and tie and carry two big bags, is this afraid that it won't attract the attention of the elves? So I had to go to the rest of the caravan and borrow a set of work clothes to change into.
Obviously, Mr. Gimley's old client, Mr. Wilhan, was not as good as Mr. Wright, and it was a long process for him to wait in line for customs clearance and entry after he walked to the door of Rivendell with a large number of porters carrying a large amount of goods.
The elves are not afraid of any danger or threat, but they hate anything dirty and filthy, especially since Rivendell has been blessed with magic at this time, and it is not to be defiled! After a very harsh inspection, with an elf as a guide, Fang Senyan and Jiao Shi finally carried large bags of goods into the gorgeous and clean city of Rivendell.
As soon as you enter Rivendell, you can see that the streets are lined with clear streams, the unique white stone and fine sand are distributed in the water, the plants are lush, and in the gap between the magnificent buildings, there are orderly plants perfectly combined with the city, and there are hanging bell swings and flower beds everywhere, which looks like the existence of a large garden.
The plants that dot it either bloom flowers or bear luscious fruits, and the air is filled with a refreshing fragrance, and many elves pick the abundant fruits by the roadside when they pass by, and then rinse them in the clear spring water next to them, and eat them directly.
These scenes didn't have such a shocking impact on Fang Senyan and Reef, like Reef, which told Fang Senyan that the scenery of his castle was no worse than that of Rivinedell. However, for those ordinary workers, there is no doubt that it is shocking, and many of them are touching and pinching here and there, regardless of the burden on their shoulders, except for amazement and amazement.
After about five or six hundred meters out of the street, suddenly, a small group of patrolling elves blocked the way.
They talked a few words with the elves leading the group in front of them, and began to slowly walk in front of this group of people, and suddenly pointed to a porter and said sternly, and the porter immediately turned pale and trembled.
Then an elf came forward to search, and immediately found a ripe fruit in his trouser pocket, and there was still an undried stream on it, apparently he had just picked it, and was going to hide it and eat it.
The elves in the patrol began to talk one after another, and disdain was about to come out, and an elf in a blue robe who seemed to be the leader, immediately released a vine spell, tied up the already howling porter, and then walked up to him and said seriously and arrogantly: ...,
"Humanity, you have hurt the holy city of Rivendell with your folly and filth, so we condemn you to be assimilated among the leaves, your body will be turned into the nourishment of nature, and your soul will be cleansed by rain and wind, and thus atone for your sins."
The caravan owner, Mr. Wilhan, was also sweating profusely at this time, and kept negotiating with the elf who led the way, but the elf only shook his head indifferently.
Reef's face was a little ugly, and he asked the dwarf Mr. Gimli Jr., who was watching coldly:
"What does it mean to assimilate between the branches and leaves?"
The dwarven boy also looked very dissatisfied with the elves, and said with a frown:
"It's hanging people from tree branches, these weird pointed ears!"
Fang Senyan looked at the old porter who was so frightened that he collapsed on the ground with gray hair, his whole body was trembling, and muddy tears flowed down his cheeks, at this moment, he had already weighed a lot of pros and cons in his mind, and then stood up, stared at the elf who was sentenced to death, and said lightly:
"I used to hear that elves are beautiful, generous, elegant, benevolent and hospitable creatures, but now that I see them with my own eyes, I know that they are all butchers!"
Although Fang Senyan knew that it was very inappropriate to stand up at this time, and it might even lead to all his previous efforts being in vain, he still stood up.
Because Fang Senyan has always believed that everyone should have their own principles that they must adhere to, and when conditions permit, gains and losses and success or failure should definitely not be the only factors that determine action!
I'd rather take it from the straight than from the song!
This old man has nothing to do with him, but he is discriminated against by the elves and insulted by the elves! Even because of such a trivial matter, he was to be executed by the elves with cruel grace! This exceeds Fang Senyan's bottom line, even if there is no return of interest, he will still stand up!
Hearing this, the elf immediately turned around and looked at Fang Senyan coldly:
"Human, your words insult all the elves, and you will pay for it."
Fang Senyan sneered:
"Am I wrong? We have traveled thousands of miles, sent far-flung specialties to the celebration of Rivendell, and we have traveled hardships along the way, from birth to death, how did you treat us? Where is your hospitality, as if you were watching prisoners, and even when you enter your city, you are careful to guard against thieves? Well?? Please tell me? ”
The elf was immediately speechless, not only that, Fang Senyan's sharp gaze looked at the rest of the elves, and the rest of the elves also turned their heads, unable to meet his questioning gaze. They may discriminate against humans in their hearts, but these people are indeed like Fang Senyan said and have traveled thousands of miles to come to Rivendell in great danger, and there is no way to say anything against them.
Fang Senyan stepped forward and tore the clothes off the shivering old porter's shoulders, revealing his red and swollen shoulders and scars. Angry Dao:
"Look at the wounds on his body! It was a sacrifice he had made for Rivendell, and with this scar, what was wrong with him eating one of Rivendell's fruits? Are you going to put him to death? ”
The elf in the blue robe said coldly:
"There is nothing wrong with him eating the fruit, but it is a great mistake to steal! Whether it is a human or an elf, if there is a theft, we are punished in this way. ”
This elf's words are also extremely sharp, and he will not be misled by Fang Senyan in the slightest, grasping the most crucial thing to say things! But Fang Senyan smiled, held up the fruit and said:
"Stealing? I ask you, whose fruit does this fruit belong to? ”
Without hesitation, the blue-robed elf replied:
"The common property of all the Rivendell elves."
Fang Senyan sighed and said, "Your selfishness has blinded you, elf. Even I, a human being, know that the Song of the Dawn that guides you is singing: Sweet water and abundant food are the gifts of the Supreme God Iluvatar. In the Divine Word (similar to the Morning Prayer) every morning, each elf admonishes himself to be humble, the son of Iluvatar (another name for the elves, as the son of the dragon), beauty is not only in appearance, but also in the heart, where is your humility, where is your beauty? ”
When Fang Senyan said this, at least one-third of the elves in the vicinity showed a look of approval in their eyes, and began to talk in a whisper, obviously touched by Fang Senyan's words "Beauty is not only about appearance, but also about being reflected in the heart"!
Elves have a mixed view of humans, they despise most of them, but they recognize the great heroes of humanity! The most intuitive is the daughter of Elon, the lord of Rivendell: Alwyn? Ondomir also ended up marrying a human.
Of course, this human being is also very good, and the extent of the cow can be seen only from what others call him.
The leader of the Dunedans of Arno, the commander of the Western armies, the master of the Star of the North, the bearer of the Reforged Holy Sword, a direct descendant of Valandil, son of Esidor, Eliza, the blood of Elendil of Númenor, he is the king of Gondor, the king of Eliza, and the son of Arasan, Aragorn..........
Of course, Fang Senyan certainly couldn't talk about the extent to which he could impress these elves with just a few words—otherwise, the book would have been classified into alternate history—even if his charm was higher than his physical strength. But with his Legendary +1 contagion, he could at least make those one-third of the elves feel that what Fang Senyan said just now made sense, and this was enough to achieve his goal.
Although the blue-robed elf was expressionless, his slender pianist-like fingers were already trembling slightly with anger, which was enough to prove that his heart was far from being as calm as he had imagined......
