The riding and chopping simulator of the Lord of the Rings

Chapter 31 The turning point of the Jinluanwei River

A month will pass soon, and Allen is also starting to prepare for the adventure.

Since he didn't know how long he was going to be out, he directly prepared two years' worth of goods in the warehouse.

It also included the wine traded with the Woodland Kingdom, and told Jamila to take good care of it so that no other problems would affect the friendship between the two clans.

This directly caused Alan's dinar to shrink by half again, and the lord who was not rich before made things worse.

During this period, Allen also discussed the various arrangements of the town with his subordinates who were in charge of different things.

Because Allen knew that if he really went to Bag End in Shire this time, it might really take more than half a year to come back.

Alan didn't think about the matter of not being able to come back. With his own skills, as long as he keeps up with Gandalf, there will be no problems.

What's more, I still have a set of equipment that is so powerful that it explodes. Allen also took the time to exchange the elf horse, which caused the simulator to increase the cooling time for a few days.

So when Gandalf rushed to this prosperous town, he saw Alan wearing silver plate armor, carrying a compound bow, holding a bright silver shield and long sword at a glance.

Surrounded by everyone, he led a steed that was not inferior to Mealas, and came to his side flamboyantly.

Gandalf leaned on the cane in his hand, feeling extremely helpless.

He said: "Master Alan, we are not going to war. You can't go wandering in the wilderness wearing this armor that can blind half-orcs. You have to wear the same clothes as me. It should be simple and unobtrusive." attention."

As he spoke, he shook his dusty cloak, and pointed at the equipment on Allen with his cane.

They said in turn: "You can keep this set of bows and arrows. This sword must have come from the hand of an elf. I don't know its origin. You can also take it with you. Don't take the shield. Keep the horse and armor. In the current Great Wilderness, after leaving this safe area, it is not convenient to ride a horse, well, Mrs. Allen, hurry up and change your equipment."

Alan was more or less disappointed in his heart, as if walking in a brocade suit, but he understood what Gandalf said.

Originally, Allen hoped that Gandalf could rely on his own magic to solve this problem.

But it was obvious that Gandalf couldn't figure it out, and Allen could only give an introduction to his subordinates and Gandalf in desperation.

Then invite Gandalf to his hall as a guest, so that he can have time to change his equipment.

When Gandalf followed the crowd to the hall, he made some observations about Wilderness Village.

In the past, he got the news from Radagast's mouth, which was far less real than what he saw with his own eyes at this time.

Gandalf was surprised to see this prosperous scene.

In such an environment, the security situation in the town, the mental state and physical condition of the villagers can be so good.

Then Allen and Allen's subordinates must have good management and combat capabilities.

And the economic situation of the town must also be good, because Gandalf happened to see that Fatis was training in the playground with a part of the army.

Gandalf has realized at this time that Ellen's village has a great possibility in the future, and will become a human force that can fight against the forces of darkness in the future.

Soon Allen was in his bedroom, changing his equipment into a leather armor with a gray-green cloak.

As soon as he entered the banquet hall, he saw Gandalf chatting happily with everyone.

It is worthy of the title of "Middle-earth Courtesan". In just a very short time, Allen could see that his subordinates were full of affection for the old man. Everyone was chatting with Gandalf with smiles on their faces. .

At this time, Gandalf, who was chatting with everyone, noticed Alan.

He stood up and said, "Master Allen, this outfit is very suitable for going out for an adventure. I think we should be able to set off."

"Gandalf, before we leave, I have to emphasize that I think we are already friends, just call me Alan, and don't call me Your Excellency anymore."

"Okay, Master Allen, can we go?"

"Ok."

Looking at Gandalf who was blinking at him, Allen shook his head helplessly.

After that, Fatis led the Swadian knights, sent Alan and Gandalf to the vicinity of the old ferry, and led the horse back.

This is the end point of Beorn's patrol. If you go further, there will be traces of wolf cavalry. Too many people will arouse the vigilance of the dark forces.

From here, there are only two people who walk with Gandalf and Alan.

Gandalf was quite familiar with this wilderness, and he suggested that the two should not walk on the wide plain.

Instead, he took Allen directly across the old ferry, and started walking from the dense forest on the edge of the Misty Mountains.

The road here is quite difficult, but for Alan and Gandalf, it is not difficult.

The two carried a large amount of supplies and shuttled through the mountains and forests.

Only at night, there are often groups of orcs wandering in the forest.

In order not to cause a larger battle, the two had to take a detour to avoid them.

Even so, it was smelled today by a squad of wolf cavalry.

Allen knew that Gandalf had some magic that was difficult for ordinary people to see, and he cast one today today.

This magic can keep Alan and himself from attracting anyone's attention for a short time, and even the smell will not be noticed by the wolf.

Relying on this ability, the two ambushed the wolf cavalry squad that was chasing them.

When the wolf cavalry entered the range of the ambush, Gandalf suddenly jumped out from the hiding place, accompanied by a bright white light, which directly shocked the wolf cavalry.

Allen seized this opportunity, shot all the wolves to death, and then began to kill the half-orcs who were avoiding Gandalf.

An ambush soon ended, the two packed up and left here.

During the journey, the trees in the daytime, the trees at night, the trees under the stars, the lush trees, and the withered trees are always in front of Alan's eyes every day, monotonous and boring.

Allen really lacks the ability to find beauty in these scenes.

Fortunately, occasionally a few half-orcs who don't have long eyes will die under his and Gandalf's hands, so as to relieve the boring journey.

Sometimes they will save some forest villagers who are being attacked by orcs.

Such days lasted for quite a long time, so long that Allen began to miss the days when he had nothing to do in the village.

On this day, the situation finally changed. A big river flowed from the Misty Mountains and stopped in front of Ellen and Gandalf.

Gandalf told Allen that the Golden Luanwei River here will flow from here to the Anduin River.

Allen knew the river, and after resting, he chatted with Gandalf about something he knew.

"Gandalf, I read from the records that there should have been hobbits living here before, right? Are there any more?"

Gandalf happens to have studied the Hobbits quite well, and this topic just tickled his itch.

He was sitting on a rock, with a pipe in his mouth, and he spit out smoke rings.

Slowly said: "Not anymore. Under the threat of dark forces, they migrated to the west. There is Shire. I have to say that the Hobbits are an unobtrusive race. They love peace and tranquility. Life, I like food and wine, I can’t wait to eat seven or eight meals a day, I really don’t know how their small size can accommodate so much food, they like to live in caves, of course their caves are very clean and tidy , is not comparable to that of a half-orc, and I haven't been there for a while."

Allen tentatively asked: "Then does our journey include Shire?"

"No, no, my dear friend, our journey will not go that far this time, we will cross the Misty Mountains and head for Black."

In the middle of Gandalf's words, he stopped suddenly, then quickly extinguished the cigarette bag in his hand, and pulled Allen to walk quietly towards the Jinluanwei Swamp.

Soon, the sound of battles reached Alan's ears.

After the two climbed up a small slope, they saw hundreds of orcs fighting with more than two dozen humans.

There are still a large number of Uruk in the army of half-orcs (at the end of the third era, Sauron used dark magic to cultivate a new breed of half-orcs, which is similar in size to normal humans, understands discipline, and has stronger combat effectiveness). This is not like life. A tribe of Orcs in the Misty Mountains.

Allen was about to rush out, but was held back by Gandalf. Gandalf signaled Allen to wait, the timing was not good enough, not yet.

The humans in the battle were at a disadvantage. They retreated while fighting, and slowly came to the hiding place of Gandalf and Allen.

At this time Gandalf saw several familiar figures, they were Saruman's subordinates, and at this time, the time to attack had come.

Gandalf signaled to Alan that he could move freely, and he himself rushed down the hillside and killed the orcs who were chasing humans.

With the help of Allen, the sharpshooter, and Gandalf, the "berserker," the battle quickly turned around.

After dropping dozens of corpses, the half-orcs ran into the forest by the river in desperation. They didn't chase after them, but began to take care of their own wounded.

Gandalf found the chief among them, and asked why they had come here.

Although Gandalf had the grace to save these people, the leader who took the lead still hesitated, unwilling to tell Gandalf the true intention of this trip, but expressed his thanks to the two of them again and again.

At this time, Allen interrupted and told Gandalf that these half-orcs probably came from Dol Guldur. At this time, there were not so many big gray-skinned half-orcs in the Misty Mountains.

After hearing what Allen said, those people were even more unwilling to say anything more, and soon they packed up and left here.

In fact, Gandalf at this time had already learned about Dol Guldur from Radagast.

After that, Gandalf himself went there to explore, but due to Radagast's surprise, Sauron, who was not fully prepared, actually ran away in order not to surprise the snake, because he still wanted to continue to occupy here, looking for his baby.

So Gandalf didn't find anything abnormal there, he could only think that a Nazgul happened to be entrenched there and was discovered by Radathgard, which is not a big deal.

It just so happens that Gandalf will also go to Rose Lorien this time, and this matter can also be discussed with other members of the White Society.

But things are different now. Alan actually said that Dol Guldur is entrenched with orcs.

This is not the same as what Gandalf detected. When he went there, it was very peaceful.

This information had to make this old man with a heavy responsibility fall into deep thought.

For Allen, this incident was just a small episode, and he knew what Saruman's men came here for.

He also knew why the orcs came here, but he couldn't think of the right words to remind Gandalf for a moment.

Just like that, the two of them crossed the Golden Luanwei River in silence, and headed towards Los Lorien again.

On the way, Allen looked at this Gandalf who had been bowing his head silently and lost in thought, feeling a little sorry.

Decided not to care so much anymore, sorted out the thoughts in my heart, and spoke.

"Gandalf, there is another record in my family about the Golden Luanwei River. Do you know about the calamity of the Golden Luanwei River?"

Gandalf, whose thinking was interrupted by Allen, reacted and said: "If you mean Isildur and his three sons, I know this. I used to be the lord of the valley, Elrond My lord heard about this, Alan, I began to wonder how many things were recorded in your family's study. Lord Elrond told me that this matter has changed over time, and those who know the specific situation have already Very few."

During this period of journey, Gandalf has let go of all doubts about Allen in his heart.

He continues to take Alan now. On the one hand, he promised Alan to go to Rose Lorien to have a look at the scenery there.

On the other hand, Gandalf wants to ask Lady Galadriel to take care of Ellen's village.

Don't let it be wiped out by the gathered dark forces when it is weak.

There is also a final meaning, Gandalf actually likes to travel with Alan, a young man with noble character, respect for the old and caring for the young, and quite knowledgeable.

But what Alan said next refreshed Gandalf's perception of the young man once again.

"Don't wonder how much I know, Gandalf, it will surprise you. I have another thing to say now."

Having said this, Alan paused for a moment, and continued: "I don't know if Lord Elrond told you that Isildur has a treasure from the enemy. I don't want to mention the name of the enemy. , but I think you should know who it is, that treasure was cut from the hand of the enemy by Isildur with the broken Nasir holy sword, it should be a ring."

Allen looked at Gandalf, whose face was getting serious to the extreme, and said his last reminder.

"Then, Isildur who possessed the treasure died in this area, and these half-orcs from Dol Guldur and Saruman's subordinates also appeared in this area at the same time. Of course, I can't guess what they are Been looking here for how long, but what are they looking for, need I go on?"

At this time, Gandalf did not know such a secret thing. He knew very little about the One Ring, far less than Saruman. Unheard of.

However, Saruman, who is also a member of the White Taoist Society, already knew.

This white-robed wizard is quite popular in Gondor. He discovered the whereabouts of the Supreme Lord of the Rings in the vast scrolls of Minas Tirith.

In fact, he has coveted the Lord of the Rings for more than a hundred years, and at this time he might have found Isildur's body.

What happened today should have happened to be touched by Gandalf under Alan's little wings.

Gandalf, who was reminded by Alan, knew that he couldn't go to the dark place this time, and he had more important things to do now.

That is to convene the people of the Baidaohui to discuss the whereabouts of the Supreme Ring and to launch an attack on Dol Guldur's enemy.

Originally, he had plenty of time, and next year he also arranged for an expedition belonging to the dwarves.

But now that time is running out, he has more important things to do.

Gandalf didn't go too deep into why Alan's people had such detailed records.

Because there are still many magics in this world that can do this kind of thing, such as the Palantir spar made by Feano.

At this time, he really has no time to think about these things that have nothing to do with the overall situation. Gandalf just wants to rush to Los Lorien quickly.

In response to this, the old man said to Alan with a little apology: "I have to regret to inform you that our adventure may be aborted. Now that I have more important things, I can't send you back. I don't know Would you still like to follow me to Rose Lorien? But we need to be fast, very fast."

"It's okay, let's go together."

Allen didn't change his mind, he knew what his words would lead to.

But he didn't regret it. He felt that he had an obligation to remind this old man who might be imprisoned by Sauron in the future. It would be good if he could avoid this from happening.

After Gandalf confirmed Alan's wishes, he took Alan and rushed in the direction of Rose Lorien.

This journey was no longer as comfortable as before. Except for the most basic rest, the two of them have been rushing without touching the ground, even eating on the way.

This way of rushing made the two of them move forward much faster, and finally arrived at Rose Lorien after half a month.

　In fact, in this chapter, there is a question that has troubled me for a long time, that is, at this time, whether Gandalf knows that Isildur once owned the Supreme Ring. After research, I don't think he knows.

　　Let me talk about the reason. This matter is recorded in Isildur's scroll. Saruman has read this scroll a long time ago, but he never told the White Daoists because he wanted to own it.

　　People, that's even less, except for Isildur himself, Elrond and Cirdan, the two big elves, so will these two big guys talk about this everywhere?
　　My guess is no, because Isildur did not handle this matter beautifully, it is very embarrassing, these two big brothers should not gossip behind their backs, especially Elrond knows Isildur After dying in the Jinluanwei River and losing the Supreme Ring, what he said roughly meant that very few people knew about it, and I just wrote it down in the book.

　　In the chronology of the Lord of the Rings, it is clearly recorded that Saruman searched for the Lord of the Rings, but it has never been recorded that Gandalf went there. It only said that in 2851, Gandalf discovered Sauron hiding in Dol Guldur. He proposed to attack at the Baidaohui, but was rejected by Saruman.

　　But in the movie, this plot was deleted, that is to say, Gandalf never knew that Dol Guldur had Sauron, which can be summed up from Gandalf's first meeting with Radagast.

　　Far away, if Gandalf knew that Isildur had the Lord of the Rings and that he died in the Golden Luanwei River, would he not have thought that Gollum's ring was the Supreme Ring?He will not go there to look for it, he doesn't know here.
