Dragonborn from Lord of the Rings

Chapter 126 Treeman Conference: Moving to the North

"It's not fair to accuse like this." At first, Treebeard was indeed intimidated by the Silver King's aura, but soon he calmed down again, and he said angrily, "Huhm, the reason why the Treebeard doesn't stand aside is because there is no one else." Stand with us."

"Whether it's humans, orcs or even dwarves, they don't have the slightest respect for the forest. We work hard and diligently to take care of every sapling, watering them from the time they are a seed, watching them Sprout, take care of them carefully, keep them from being blown down by wind and snow, and won't be destroyed by insect diseases, and pay attention to the light. Yes, this is also very important."

It seems to be the nature of the race. Even when these tree people are angry, their speech speed is still so slow. It seems that for them, there is nothing in the world worth worrying about.

of course.

It may also be that they are not angry enough, after all, the people who have seen them angry are basically gone.The physical kind.

"Finally, a tree grows through the ages," said Treebeard. "But that's only a small part of a long tree. We have much to go through in the years to come, Hum. Yes, if a tree wants to grow into a towering tree or a forest, it takes much more time than humans and dwarves think! It can only be achieved when their country and civilization are cut off!"

"But it's much easier to destroy a tree or a forest!" Treebeard, one of the oldest people in Middle-earth, seemed to be hooked by Turka. After all, generally speaking, no one would talk to a tree. The tree talks so much. "Humans, dwarves, and half-orcs, they just hold axes and saws, and swing a few times like this casually, and a tree will fall down. The growth time is much faster than him, so much that we can't even forgive it!"

Treebeard said angrily, "So, tell me, King of the North, why should we help them? War is cruel, but this war is not ours!"

"I can give an order," said Turka, "that people are not allowed to cut down trees taller than one man! Not taller than two men! Even, if trees less than three men's height are to be cut down, I will make them ask first. You, if the Shepherd of Hundred Trees does not agree to cut down, then don’t do it!”

"I will also ask every person who cuts down a tree to plant a seedling every spring. If two trees are cut down, two trees will be planted! And so on!" Turka looked around the surrounding forest and said loudly: "As long as you come to the north, plow and open a new forest!"

At that time, including Treebeard, the ancient races in the forest were all stunned.

Because they have never seen such a person in their long tree years.The elves may also love the trees and the forest.But the Firstborn would not take the initiative to plant trees, not even the Silvan elves who loved the forest the most.

Humans will plant some ornamental vegetation when they need it, and they will be grateful when they pick berries and trees, but that's all.

Cultivating forests has never been in the human mind of this era.

Not to mention dwarves.

Aoli's creations and Yavanna's creations are inherently incompatible, which was doomed at the beginning of their birth-the tree man was born because Aoli secretly created the dwarves, and then was discovered by Yiru, who scared the A craftsman in the Valar nearly killed the original seven dwarves.Fortunately, as kind-hearted, Aoli was allowed to create dwarves, but they were not allowed to appear in the world before the appearance of the firstborn children.So Aoli placed the ancestors of the first seven dwarves all over the land, and they were not allowed to wake up until the elves appeared.

When Yavanna heard the news, she said to him: "Ru is truly merciful. You have not only been forgiven, but you have been generously rewarded. But since you have kept this from me until it is completed, your children will not Love what I love. They will love above all what their hands make, as their father did. They will dig the earth, and care nothing for what grows on it. Many trees will be destroyed by their merciless iron Chop and bite."

But Auri replied: "The children of Iluvatar will do the same, they will eat what the earth grows, and they will use it to build houses. Although everything in your domain is valuable in itself, even if there is no The sons and daughters, nor their worth; but as will give his sons and daughters dominion, they will use all that they can find in Arda."

Hearing what Aoli said, Yavanna, known as the giver of all kinds of fruits, was very sad, because must her creations serve and be destroyed by others?
So she made a petition to Manwe and Yiru, hoping that there would be a protector of the forest on the earth.So that her creations will not be ruthlessly trampled on.

And Manwhe, as she heard, did respond to her, allowing her to create a creature that walked in the forest, protecting and punishing all the plants that took root in the ground.Thus, the Treant was born.

That is to say, the birth of Treant itself has elements of fighting against darkness and even humans and dwarves.

So, in a sense, it's no wonder they don't like races other than elves, because they only cut down forests and destroy life, but they don't know how to protect and appreciate plants.

That's why, when they heard the environmental protection speeches of King Silver and White that went beyond this era, the tree people felt a sense of being recognized and understood.

The humming and trembling stopped, and the forest became silent.

Several times of clear sunlight passed through the dense canopy and sprinkled on the green moss.A ray of sunlight miraculously fell on Turka's body, setting off the silver-white king to be extremely tall and holy.

"Tell me!" Turka Arakano from another world said, "O elf in the tree, what do you say?"

"It's a strange idea." Beard opened his eyes wide and blew his beard excitedly: "Hum, Hum. No one cares about trees, forests like you! Maybe, maybe, maybe, I'm afraid we need Have a meeting! Ah, yes, it's a big deal! I see why you're here, but I need to think, or the Ents need to think."

"Come on, my brothers, come to my side, let's discuss the suggestion of the silver king! This is the opportunity for the tree man, and it is also the tree man's revenge! Come on, wake up, my friends!"

Treebeard gathered his gnarled hands and placed them in front of his mouth, forming a hollow tube.A loud hoom and hoom sound suddenly came out from the mouth of the oldest man, and spread into the forest far away. It sounded like a low-pitched horn, constantly echoing among the trees.

In the distance, the same voice of Hum, Hom, Hum came from several directions.

In the perception of Turka and Nahal, more tree people are waking up.

They rushed over from all directions in the forest, their slender and powerful feet walking in the forest with a bang.The canopy, branches and leaves swayed non-stop, as if the whole forest came alive.

"It's amazing." Nahar said, "There are still so many elves in the tree."

"Not many more." After shouting, Treebeard stopped, his face covered with signs of time showed sadness: "Compared with a long time ago, the number of tree people is much less. Because we can no longer find The Treewoman is gone."

He invited Turka and the Holy Spirit of the Blessed Land into the Valley of the Secret Forest. This is the first time in a long time that a race other than tree people has entered this place.

In fact, Turka's previous behavior of stopping at the door made Treebeard feel good about them.At least, it's much better than breaking into someone's bedroom without asking.

Soon, a group of treants of various shapes rushed to the Valley of the Secret Forest from all directions.

These Treants come in all shapes and sizes: various shapes and colors, different girths and heights, different leg lengths and arm lengths, different numbers of toes and fingers (ranging from three to nine).A few seemed to be more or less related to Treebeard, looking like beeches or oaks.

Some are reminiscent of chestnut trees, and these treants have brown skin and large splayed hands with stubby legs.

Some were reminiscent of ash trees, tall, straight, gray-skinned treants with many-fingered hands and long legs.

Some trees were like firs (they were the tallest), others like birches, others like rowan trees, and still others like lime trees.

There were a few older Treants, bearded and gnarled, like hale and ancient trees (but none looked as old as Treebeard); , like the trees in their prime in the forest;
But no matter what kind of trees the tree people are, there are no small tree people.Thinking of what Treebeard said, there is no tree woman to be found now, a very impolite thought came to Turka's heart.

That is, the race is bisexual?

At this time, there were a total of twenty tree people standing on the wide grass at the bottom of the valley, and more were coming in.

After waiting for a while, finally, nearly 200 tall and strong tree people rushed here from all directions in the forest.Looking at the trees that filled the Valley of Secrets... the tree people, Turka nodded inwardly.

In fact, when Turka watched the Treants, these ancient creatures were also watching him.

They nodded slightly, and greeted each other in a strange language, murmured as slowly as music, the language of the Ents, which Turka could not understand.

Then the ancient creatures looked long and intently at the stranger—their eyes were not all as old and deep as Treebeard's, but all had the same slow, steady, thoughtful expression, and the same green light .

When all the Treants had arrived, Treebeard spoke.His speaking speed became slower, and there were many long sounds, as if he was saying hello, and he seemed to be introducing Turka and the others.

The other treants also made their voices long, short, slow, or loud, and the forest became extremely lively in an instant.

Turka stood aside, watching all this with a smile.
