Chapter 1253 When a Thrushbird Knocks on the Door

Time passed by minute by minute.

The afterglow of the setting sun in the sky is also decreasing inch by inch.

The light of the setting sun shone on the gray rock, but still no keyhole was revealed.

The dwarves analyzed the prompt one by one, but they couldn't find any clues.

They began to get anxious, they beat on the rocks indiscriminately, and the bad-tempered Dwalin even chopped the rocks vigorously with an axe.

They knew that this was the gate leading to the underground palace. As long as they opened it, they could enter the underground palace from the back mountain and find the gem in the heart of the mountain.

However, they just couldn't find the keychain, that is, they couldn't open the stone door.

Balin was about to cry, "We can't do anything, I don't know what's wrong, the sun is going to set soon, if we can't get in, we'll be at Shimen..."

Sorin's heart was full of pain and unwillingness. He didn't believe that he had gone through all kinds of difficulties and dangers, but in the end it was nothing but nothing.

He grabbed a big axe and hacked desperately at the hard rock, "These are just rocks! I can't believe that with so many of us, we can't even crack a single rock!"

"That's right!"

"We are the descendants of the Lone Mountain Dwarves!"

"No stone will stand in our way!"

"For ancestors!"

The blood of the dwarves was boiling, each grabbed the weapons and tools around them, and chopped at the gray stone desperately.

For a while, the sound of jingling and knocking can be heard endlessly.

Bilbo was a little moved, and he whispered to Xufeng, "Shall we help?"

Xufeng shook her head, "No need."

"Okay." Bilbo shrugged, and continued to stand by with Xufeng and the others.

The dwarves banged on the rocks desperately, but it was no use at all.

The weapons in their hands are indeed good in cutting people, but they are not good at digging.

What's more, these stones are protected by elf magic, even if they have digging tools at hand, it is impossible to open this magic door.

If you want to open this magic door, you can only use the secret key of the moon, and if you want to use the secret key of the moon, you have to find the keyhole first.

Let people try their best to chop and chop, but it has no effect at all.

The afterglow of the last time also completely disappeared, and the entire back mountain was plunged into darkness.

Sorin roared in grief and indignation, the roar was full of unwillingness and despair.

The other dwarves also covered their faces and wept.

They have paid so much and risked their lives to leave their hometowns. Obviously, hope is right in front of them, and they are out of reach.

Balin walked up to Sorin's side, patted Sorin's shoulder lightly, and comforted him in a low voice: "It's okay, Sorin... We will still have a chance to enter the Lonely Mountain Palace by this time next year. Next year At this time, we will be more fully prepared..."

Thorin said with tears in his eyes: "No, we couldn't find the keyhole this year, so can we find it next year! What's more... Orcs are chasing us, and the woodland elves regard us as their prisoners! Where will we settle down this year?"

The dwarves suddenly despaired to the extreme.

Balin quickly said: "No, we still have hope! We can still rely on Lord Didi! As long as Lord Didi is around, we still have hope, right? Lord Didi! You will always be with us! "

Xufeng said lightly: "No, I don't have a whole year to accompany you. In fact, if I escort you to Gushan safely, my mission will be considered complete."

As soon as these words came out, the dwarves became even more desperate. They thought they had fallen into the abyss, but now it seems that the previous abyss is not an abyss at all, and the current abyss is the real abyss, and the previous abyss can still be saved. One moment, but now the side is completely irreparable!
They were also dragged along by Xufeng and Xuedi's team along the way. Without Xufeng's care, they would have been wiped out long ago. If Xufeng can continue to accompany them, then at most they are just waiting. It's only a year, but if Xufeng doesn't accompany them, then they have no hope at all.

Balin said eagerly: "Wait, Lord Didi! We will give you money! Aren't you a mercenary? We can give you as much money as you want!"

Sorin also quickly said: "Yes, there are countless treasures in the Wushan Palace. We can give you as much as you want. I just ask you to stay with us for another year and help us deal with the woodland elves and half-orcs! Without you, But just a few of us can’t support it at all!”

Xufeng said lightly: "No, although I am a mercenary, I actually don't care about your gold coins at all, and I won't stay with you for another year."

Although the tone of these words is an understatement, it is very decisive.

When the dwarves heard it, they knew they were hopeless.

Several dwarves knelt on the gray stone, howling in pain.

Sorin also sighed in despair, and murmured, "After all, it's just a dream..."

He threw the key in his hand on the ground, and then walked down the mountain dejectedly.

The others also followed Sorin dejectedly.

Bilbo's eyes widened in astonishment: "Wait, is that the end? You just gave up like this?"

Old Balin said with tears in his eyes, "It's all over, Master Bilbo, it's a pity that we couldn't enter the Lonely Mountain Palace, so we won't get a penny from you."

Bilbo frowned and said, "I didn't ask for money, but it's just that you gave up like this..."

Bilbo wanted to curse, but he held back at last.

He turned back to Xufeng and said, "Diedi, shall we give up too?"

If Xufeng said to give up, he would go back to Rivendell and live on from there, and never bother with these messy things again.

Xufeng smiled faintly, walked to the gray stone, picked up the secret key of the moon, and then said lightly to the dark sky: "Stand on the gray stone, when the thrush comes to knock on the door, the day of Turin The last light will shine on the keyhole..."

The dwarves who were about to walk down the stone steps stopped involuntarily.

They had given up hope, but now they realized that Xufeng had not given up hope.

Xufeng lifted the key slowly, the dark clouds in the sky gradually dispersed, and a crescent moon appeared.

The not-so-bright moonlight shone on the gray rock through the gap on the key.

At this time, a thrush flew over lightly, with a hazelnut in its beak.

He tapped the hazelnuts on the rocks, making a "tuck-tuck-tuck" sound.

Balin wiped his eyes, and said in astonishment: "Thrush? Standing on the gray rock! When the thrush knocks on the door! The last light of the day of Turin... eh! I get it! I get it! I get it all! !"
