"Thorin, there are orcs in front of you, holding weapons, I hope you still have the strength to fight!"

Zhu Linglu said teasingly to Thorin, fortunately, no woodland elves had noticed the situation here at the moment, and their attention was almost on the team of more than two hundred orcs over there.

Thorin glanced at Zhu Linglu and then out of the sluice, the waterway was higher than the terrain of the Dense Forest River outside, so he could see the battle between orcs and woodland elves on both sides of the riverbank.

In fact, the battlefield is not very far from the sluice stone wall here, those orcs have already raided more than a hundred steps away, and some orcs have also seen the dwarves here, shouting loudly here.

Then a orc commander commands the other orcs to slaughter the dwarves.

"Mr. Haven, glad you didn't abandon us!"

Thorin took the elven sword handed by Zhu Linglu with one hand, although he used it a little uncomfortably, but at least it was much better than his bare hands.

Thinking of his previous experience, and then thinking of his previous suspicion of Zhu Linglu abandoning them, when he was still locked up in the dungeon of the Cave Palace, he felt a little guilty when he met Bilbo when he talked about Zhu Linglu.

Of course, Thorin can't say too many words of gratitude, he will only remember it in his heart, and prepare to repay Zhu Linglu with the treasures in Irubor in the future.

"Alright, Thorin. Oak Shield, you go down this river first, and I'll find a way to meet you!" ”

Zhu Linglu was not worried that he would not be able to catch up with these dwarves, his witch clan magic power could allow him to easily advance in the dense forest river, and he was afraid that the speed was only a few points faster than that of Thorin and them.

"Okay, Mr. Haven, be careful! Ah......h

Thorin reluctantly saluted Zhu Linglu in the oak barrel, then let go of the hand holding the iron fence, and the water rushed directly out of the iron fence.

Then the next one was the dwarf Dwarin, and Zhu Linglu also handed him an elven sword. Dwarin also saluted Zhu Linglu, and was also swept out of the iron gate by the water with a miserable scream.

Behind them are Balin, Dori, Noli and other dwarves, but Bilbo didn't bring out many elven weapons, and not all dwarves got weapons.

The last to come was poor Bilbo, seeing that he was about to be washed out of the sluice gate directly with the oak barrel, Zhu Linglu hurriedly pointed at the water flow, and from the water flow seemed to stretch out a pair of hands, holding Bilbo and sending him into the oak barrel.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Haven, I almost drowned!"

Bilbo tugged at the fence of the sluice with both hands. He thanked Zhu Linglu again and again, and then shook his hair like a dog in water, so that the water on his face could be shaken off some.

"Alright, come on, I'll go with you!"

Zhu Linglu jumped directly into the water from the stone wall of the sluice, and the oak barrel that sent Bilbo fell together into the dense forest river outside the sluice.

However, Zhu Linglu was in the water, like a pulley under his feet, and he was not affected by the complex water flow in the waterway river at all, and the water flow was like a teleportation slide. Steadily sending Zhu Linglu and Bilbo in the oak barrel in front of him, he quickly moved towards the dense forest river in front.

Under the transmission of the water, the dwarves in front have also entered the battlefield of woodland elves and orcs.

This dense forest channel is narrow and wide, and in some places there are rocks that extend into the channel. So the orcs can also attack the dwarves who come down the river in some narrow rivers.

Other orcs shot arrows at the dwarves in the river.

But those oak barrels can really make a big difference, encountering long arrows from orcs. The dwarves shrank into the barrel and avoided the arrows.

And these oak barrels are also very strong, even if they are shot by a long arrow. At most, it can only stare at the outer layer, and cannot penetrate the inner shell.

Originally, these oak barrels were sent downstream by the woodland elves through the waterway every time, so that the humans of Riverdale could recycle them, and if the oak barrels were not strong, they would have been smashed by the rocks in the river.

However, the woodland elves also seemed surprised to see the dwarves running out in oak barrels, but they also saw that the orcs were attacking the dwarves, and the enemies of the enemy, at least not their own enemies, so these woodland elves finally did not attack the dwarves.

With the help of the cover of the oak barrel, and occasionally using the weapons given to them by Zhu Linglu, the dwarves slashed at the orcs who jumped up, and finally passed through this battlefield with half thrill and half danger.

As for Zhu Linglu and the hobbits in the back, the orcs and woodland elves couldn't see them, Zhu Linglu had already made a circle of water waves on his and Bilbo's side, and what others saw was just a wave of water, surging quickly in front of their eyes.

Next, the woodland elves were naturally fighting against the orcs here, but the orcs began to fight and retreat, and their main targets were still the dwarves, so they inevitably continued to chase and kill the dwarves along the shore along the dense forest river.

It's just that the flow speed of the Jungle River is extremely fast, and after Zhu Linglu took Bilbo to get close to the dwarves in front, he also used the witch clan's magical powers to accelerate the dwarves' forward speed.

Naturally, those orcs couldn't catch up on the shore, and even the woodland elves couldn't find any trace of the dwarves in the dense forest river later.

In this way, I followed the river all the way to the east, and gradually left the dark and dense forest, and reached a place where the trees on both sides were relatively sparse.

The dark and dreary river suddenly opened up, and the surface of the river was no longer shrouded in the shadow of the forest, and it looked bright against the blue sky.

On the north bank of the river there is a sandbar created by the waves, and on the east side of the sandbar there is a rock barrier that blocks the flow of the river.

On the other side of the sandbar, the river was much calmer, and now a ferry was parked at the pier on the riverbank, apparently used by the people of Riverdale to collect oak barrels and bring them back to Riverdale.

There were already a lot of barrels piled up on the ferry, but there was no one to be seen collecting them or driving the boat.

Most of the barrels that flowed down the jungle river were washed straight onto the sandbar, with only a few crashing into the boulder.

Everyone climbed ashore from the river and began to take off their shoes and clothes, and drain the water from their shoes and pockets, while the dwarves and hobbits looked a little dizzy.

Only Zhu Linglu didn't have any traces of water on his body, as if he hadn't floated from the river at all just now...... (To be continued......)
