Chapter 51: The Beginning of the Plot
Weng Tianyang and Lu Lingyu went to find Gandalf, while the others were playing nearby, looking at the scenery, and familiarizing themselves with the nearby terrain in advance, after all, when they fled to the Holy Helmet Valley in the future, they would stop the orc army sent by Saruman here.
Weng Tianyang and Lu Lingyu pushed open Gandalf's door, only to see Gandalf tinkering with the newly purchased firecrackers.
Gandalf heard the door being pushed and looked up at the two men who had come in with joy on their faces.
"Come on, Weng Tianyang, help me see what other tricks this firecracker can make. ”
Weng Tianyang also sat in front of a large pile of firecrackers and took out wrenches and other things. Gandalf couldn't understand what he had come up with, and the average person should not be able to understand what he was using as an unfathomable craftsman.
Weng Tianyang looked at the firecrackers in front of him and asked:
"What are you doing with these firecrackers, and what effect are you going to achieve, tell me. ”
"These firecrackers are used by me to celebrate the birthday of my old friend Bilbo, who is one hundred and eleven years old, and as an old friend, of course I have to support him. ”
"Bilbo, is that the hobbit who accomplished the feat of dragon slaying with you?" Weng Tianyang said as he began to modify the firecracker in front of him, as a mechanic, changing a firecracker is simply overkill.
"yes, but that was all years ago. ”
"Gandalf, we've always heard about your adventures, but we haven't met you, can you take us with you to celebrate your birthday and let us meet the legend?"
"Yes, I'll tell you, Bilbo likes to tell people stories about his adventures. However, you'll have to help me make the effect of the firecrackers spectacular. ”
"It's just bells and whistles, I'm good at it. ”
"That's right. The two of them laughed.
"Gandalf, you haven't fulfilled your promise to the king. At this time, Lu Lingyu, who was on the side, said coldly.
"Oh, yes, I have to show the townspeople about the disease, with you, the old man's errand is much easier. ”
"It's up to you to rely on your experience. ”
Gandalf was also in a good mood when he was blown, and followed Lu Lingyu out with a smile.
It took about an hour, Weng Tianyang changed a large number of firecrackers in the room to the bottom, in the original play, there was only a sky monkey, and after it was blown up, it became a dragon pattern, Weng Tianyang learned from it, the mechanic added the ability of the alchemist, with Gandalf's magic, it was originally just a red dragon brushing by, but now it has become six colorful dragons, and the effect is absolutely shocking.
Weng Tianyang walked out of Gandalf's room and came to the outside of the room, leaning on the pillar with Chen Long on the side, watching Gandalf and Lu Lingyu in front of him set up a stall to see a doctor.
There were more than a dozen people lined up in front of the stall, Lu Lingyu was sweet-looking, Gandalf was amiable, the point was that the shop was free, and gradually there were more people.
"Hey, are you done?" asked Chen Long.
"Okay, Gandalf will set off tomorrow, you should hurry up and familiarize yourself with the nearby terrain at this time this afternoon, I am fine today, it is better to find an ambush location tomorrow morning and make some arrangements." ”
"Okay, I'll do it later. ”
"It's not easy for Lu Lingyu today, you don't care about it. ”
"We're just friends, friends. ”
"Yo, you're just standing here and watching her solicit?"
"You speak to me more elegantly, people are called buying people's hearts and paving the way for us later, unlike you, who don't do anything, only talk cool words. ”
"Okay, okay, I can't talk about you lately, I'm going to buy some firecrackers, although this world doesn't allow the use of technology products, but this firecracker is powerful enough, and it can be changed into an RPG. With that, Weng Tianyang left.
Chen Long looked at Lu Lingyu's figure alone, and after watching it for a while, he left and went to do business.
After a day of getting along, everyone felt that Gandalf was like an old urchin, getting along with anyone.
In the evening, everyone returned to the room, and at this time, the room was also full of firecrackers, Gandalf and Weng Tianyang, and the two of them basically emptied the firecracker reserves in the capital of the Rohan Kingdom.
Lu Lingfeng touched the firecrackers stacked there and asked:
"Why are you making so many firecrackers, stealing business with Gandalf?" Lu Lingfeng asked, still playing with a delicate and small firecracker in his hand.
"Don't touch it, these firecrackers have been transformed and can be used as RPG, ** and other ** weapons. Weng Tianyang didn't look at him either, and was fiddling with something in front of the test bench.
Hearing this, Lu Lingfeng immediately put down the firecracker in his hand and found a far corner position to sit down.
"Everyone is here, let's talk about what we have seen and heard today. Chen Long was the first to speak.
The first to speak were He Chenglin and the monk.
"There are still many plains nearby, and there are occasional woods, but they are also small-scale, and only on the side of the Holy Helmet Valley are continuous forests, which is worthy of being a good place for knights to develop. ”
Then Lu Lingyu said:
"Most of the people of the Rohan Kingdom are strong and strong, and both men and women have a certain foundation in martial arts and a certain combat effectiveness. This is also the result of Lu Lingyu's observation in the town.
Then Weng Tianyang came down from the workbench, sat on the side, and said:
"As you can see, I have already bought all the firecrackers in the capital, and the result of spending an afternoon is that there are about ten RPGs, thirty **, five ***. A poison gas bomb was also made, and the area was about ten square meters. Find a place to save it and use it when you come. ”
"It's simple. When the time comes, there are soldiers in hand, and ***, we will have a snowball. ”
As for Gu Yi and Xu Zekai, they have already lived in the barracks and studied by Yi Oumo's side, so naturally they can't come back to make their impressions.
Then, Weng Tianyang conspired with Chen Long for a while, and everyone fell asleep one after another.
Early the next morning, Chen Long left the room to buy some good horses, while Weng Tianyang went to Gandalf to talk to him about firecrackers.
Weng Tianyang took Gandalf to everyone's room, and when Gandalf pushed the door open, he saw that the corner was full of firecrackers. Gandalf was a little surprised and said:
"That's too much, enough in my room, you're so diligent. ”
"So, what about these firecrackers?"
"Speak to King Siyodon when we leave, and ask him to set up a locker for you to fit, and I'll come back next year. As he spoke, Gandalf took out a small bag of gold coins from his bosom and put them in Weng Tianyang's hand.
"No, no, no, I can't take that. We'd appreciate it if you agreed to take us on a tour, and that's what we should do. Weng Tianyang hurriedly pushed away.
"No, no, no, the price of this firecracker is not cheap, it must have cost you a lot of money, you must accept this gold coin, anyway, I am not short of money as a wizard. ”
Hearing Gandalf say this, Weng Tianyang could only reluctantly accept it. In fact, only one kilogram of gold is allowed to be used in the ring brought into the ring, and everyone's various expenses really make the fund reserve a little tight.
In the afternoon, the group followed Gandalf and greeted the king before leaving the Rohan kingdom and heading for the Shire.
Gandalf was very talkative along the way, and under his leadership, the group took the Rohan Pass, which is not visited in the movie, that is, the road that is closer to Isengard, except for the Moriath Tunnel and the snow-capped mountain.
As we passed through the Rohan Pass, we could see a towering black building in the north, and Gandalf pointed it out and said:
"That's my old friend, the white-robed wizard Saruman's Wizard's Tower, unlike me, I like to travel around, and he only likes to guard his wizard's tower and do research. He laughed as he spoke.
The crowd followed Gandalf's fingers, and Isengar was still surrounded by woods, and by the time Saruman bared his fangs, it would be a scorched earth.
Then, instead of going to the place where the Fellowship of the Ring and the others in Rivendell passed, Gandalf took a completely different route, which presumably had too much advantage for the team that avoided arriving first.
Because Gandalf set up the carriage and pulled a cart full of firecrackers behind it, everyone was really not flattering about the speed of travel, from Rohan to the Shire country, it took a whole month, during this period, Xu Zekai and Gu Yi, who were still in the Rohan country, had already traveled through the entire Rohan with Yiom, and also learned a lot of knowledge about equestrianism and swordsmanship.
By the time the carriage swayed into the Shire and arrived in the town where Baggins lived, everything familiar had returned.
A half-man-tall gnome jumped down from the side and asked:
"Why are you here, Gandalf?"
Gandalf also stepped forward to hug the dwarf in front of him, explaining that something was too late.
Those who are familiar with the Lord of the Rings naturally know that the dwarf in front of him is the protagonist of the Lord of the Rings trilogy, Frodo Baggins.
Frodo let go of Gandalf and asked with some confusion:
"Who are these people?"
"Oh, they're all my friends, famous rangers, and I've brought them over to meet my old friend Bilbo, who I'm sure will be happy to tell these young men the story of his dragon warriors when he was younger. ”
"Oh, my cousin will be very happy, he loves to tell people stories of his youth. ”
With that, Frodo walked in front, leading the way for the team.
On the way of the team, Chen Long's team saw some familiar people, it was Tang Yuzhe, Donnie, and Lu Renjia, who were enjoying the shade under a big tree. Seeing acquaintances, Chen Long and they naturally greeted each other.
"Why, you know?" asked Frodo, turning his head.
"Yes, they are also famous rangers over there, and we often learn martial arts. ”
"Well, they've been here for two or three days, and they've helped us build a house. Frodo said
"Hahahaha, you go and say hello to them, it's Bilbo's birthday party in the evening, and I'll come to you then. Gandalf said kindly.
Hearing this, Chen Long and the others dismounted, saluted Gandalf, and turned to Tang Yuzhe and them.
"These young men are young and promising, but unfortunately I am already an old man. Hahahaha. ”
Frodo glanced at the people in the distance, full of thirst for adventure.
"How long have you been in this world, where did you come from?" Chen Long found a stone bench and sat down.
"It's been more than half a month, from Rivendell, what about you?" Tang Yuzhe replied.
"It's been a month. Coming from Rohan, this month is considered to have experienced most of Middle-earth. ”
Before the two sides could continue to speak, a mechanical female voice suddenly sounded in their heads.
"Everyone in the Lord of the Rings has arrived, divided into two camps: Middle-earth and Mordor.
The first stage of the mission, survival.
This world's technological weapons are ineffective against natives, and can only deal damage to the rest of the trialists.
The top three teams and the top 20 solo trialists will complete the assessment.
Now, the world has officially begun!"
