05. Smaug
The place where the hobbits live is called the Shire, which is a beautiful land with green and smooth roads, and a large number of hobbits live here.
Among them was Rowe's target for the trip, Bilbo Baggins.
When Lowe found the hobbit, Bilbo Baggins was standing in the doorway smoking an extremely long pipe, almost touching his freshly groomed hairy feet.
"You're Bilbo Baggins?" Rowe looked the young hobbit up and down.
That's right, the current Bilbo Baggins is not a gray-haired old man, but an energetic young hobbit.
Because at this time, Luo Wei has returned from the future to the past.
And before Gandalf finds Bilbo, he finds the protagonist in The Hobbit.
Bilbo looked at the uninvited guest in front of him in surprise, nodded and said, "It's me, I'm Bilbo Baggins, who are you?" Is there anything you want me to do?"
"I'm a traveler, a traveler who can see the future, and you're going to have an interesting adventure in the future I see, so I'm coming to you," Lowe said.
"Me, take the risk?" Bilbo Baggins thought it was funny, then shook his head and said, "You must be mistaken, hobbits never like to take risks, and neither do I."
Luo Wei smiled and said, "I was not mistaken, I am very confident in the future I see."
Bilbo Baggins got serious, "Listen, I don't care if you're a traveler or a prophet, I think you've got the wrong person, I, Bilbo, am very happy with my life and won't take any chances."
Rowe looked at the hard-mouthed Bilbo Baggins, smiled slightly, and turned to leave.
He didn't dwell on it.
Don't look at Bilbo's hard mouth now, when he meets Gandalf, he will know that fate is force majeure.
After meeting Balbo, Rowe gave up his curiosity and left the Charles.
All the way to the Lonely Mountain.
Now Rowe is interested in the last dragon in Middle-earth.
For in his conversation with Gandalf, Smaug seems to be his mount.
To be honest, Luo Wei does not reject this, the dragon is a powerful symbol in that world, if he can find a dragon as a mount, it is undoubtedly a very stylish thing.
Therefore, Luo Wei spent some time and came to the Lonely Mountain.
Before returning to the past, Luo Wei asked the dwarf about the location of the lonely mountain in Rivendell, and the dwarf thought that Luo Wei wanted to come to the lonely mountain as a guest, so he readily told Luo Wei the location of the lonely mountain.
This time, Luo Wei went back to the past, and naturally he would not get lost.
In just a few minutes, Rowe crossed thousands of mountains and rivers, from Shire to Lonely Mountain.
Ever since Smaug occupied the Lonely Mountain, it had become a forbidden place, surrounded by no grass and lifeless, standing gloomily on the ground.
The gate of the Lonely Mountain had already been locked, and no one dared to approach it, let alone disturb the evil dragon Smaug, who guarded the treasure.
….
Decades ago, there wasn't a single visitor here.
Until the arrival of Rowe.
After Luo Wei came to the Lonely Mountain, he passed through the closed gate and went all the way down, towards the treasure house of the Lonely Mountain.
As Rowe got closer and closer to the vault, a voice began to dance in his ears, sounding like something boiling and bubbling in a pot, along with a sound similar to the roar of a big cat.
Later, the sound slowly changed to the snoring of some kind of giant monster sleeping.
Soon after, Rowe entered the deepest cavern of the Lonely Mountain.
It's pitch black.
However, in the very center of the floor, there is a blinding red light...... That's the glow of the dragon Smaug!
The great red dragon just lay there, undisturbed and asleep.
Wisps of black smoke emanated from its sharp teeth and nostrils, and the flames in its belly weren't so strong when it slept.
Beneath its limbs and tail, as well as throughout the cavern, it was filled with all sorts of gold and silver jewelry, uncast gold and precious stones, as well as finely carved works of art.
These treasures were all stained with a strange glow of bright red.
Smaug's wings folded, and he lay on the ground like a giant bat.
It fell asleep on its side, and Rowe could see its pale belly pressed against the priceless bed.
Because it has been pressing its belly on these treasures for a long time, many precious stones and gold have been stuck in its belly.
On the wall behind Smaug, Rowe could see chain mail, helmets, axes, swords, guns, and halberds hanging on the wall; In the same place, there are many large urns containing countless treasures.
The riches of a dwarven kingdom are gathered here.
Anyone who comes here will be stunned by this treasure trove.
Because it's so rich here.
This splendour, rich gold and silver jewel is beyond anyone's imagination, and only a dwarf can be so rich.
In this era of backward productivity, there is no way for ordinary human kingdoms to gather such a huge amount of treasures.
The original dwarves were proud of this place.
But alas, since Smaug occupied this place, this place has become Smaug's territory, and it has also become an eternal pain in the hearts of all dwarves.
Rowe saw that these immeasurable riches far exceeded the number of Hamnata Towers in the city of the dead.
But Rowe was unmoved.
He has the ability to turn stones into gold, and if he wants, he can turn the entire lonely mountain into a mountain of gold, and these riches may be treasures for ordinary people.
But for Luo Wei, it is nothing, and it can't touch Luo Wei's heart at all.
It wasn't the treasure that really attracted Rowe in the treasure house, but the dragon Smaug lying on the treasure.
The last red dragon in Middle-earth.
Smaug was as powerful as he had imagined, and it would be a very attractive thing to turn the dragon into his mount.
So Luo Wei stepped forward, picked up a gold coin, and gently left it on the ground.
There was a crunch of ding, and it sounded in the silent treasury, and the sound was heard far away.
Smaug, who had been sleeping, opened his eyes suddenly, locked the direction where the voice came from, and saw the intruder in the treasure house, Rowe.
In an instant, Smaug was furious.
He thought of Rowe as a thief who had sneaked into his treasury, and opened it to spit out a mouthful of hot dragon breath.
The scorching flames spewed towards Rowe, and the temperature in the air rose at an alarming rate, and the entire treasure house was as hot as the crater of the Doomsday Volcano at this moment.
When the rolling flames were about to cover Luo Wei, Luo Wei also opened his mouth and spat out a flame.
