In the reckless forest, Ao Long showed his hand in public, and not only Gandalf, but also a group of dwarves.

Only Bilbo felt that such an old friend of mine was really extraordinary, and he gained a lot of face for him.

Beyond the ice-covered area created by Ao Long, everyone finally walked out of the forest and reached the foot of a mountain.

At the foot of the hill there is a dilapidated house, let's call it a house, after all, only four pillars remain uncollapsed, and there are no other signs of habitation beyond the dilapidated roof, it is clear that this is a long-abandoned house.

"Let's camp here today!! Chili, Filip, take care of the horses and make sure the horses are safe!! Wald, be optimistic about the fire!! "

The dwarven king Thorin opened his mouth and gave the order to camp.

Ao Long had been watching the dwarven king, considering whether to save his life in the future, weighing the pros and cons.

Gandalf pestle his wand and looked around the dilapidated house, and Gandalf saw signs of battle in the collapsed walls, and there were some seeds and farming tools in the soil that proved that a farmer had once lived there, but it was clear that the family had been attacked by accident.

It was obviously unusual for such a thing to occur on the edge of this peaceful Shire, on the outskirts of the Elven Kingdom, so Gandalf's intuition smelled an uneasy breath.

"There used to be a peasant family living here, and I suggest we should keep going!! We could go to the hidden valley!! "

Gandalf tried to admonish Thorin Oakshield, but he overlooked one thing, and that was the conflict between the dwarves and the elves.

"I already told you, I wouldn't be near that place!!"

Thorin was clearly desperately rejecting the offer.

"Why? Genie can help!! There will be food, a safe resting place and advice. "

Clearly, Gandalf thought it was risky to stay overnight in the face of the farmer's experience.

However, Ao Long looked back, the blue sky and white clouds in the sky, leisurely drifting, the green grass on the ground, comfortable and soft, here is just a mountain peak that is not tall or short, a gentle area, beautiful scenery, Ao Long still likes it very much, so he did not put forward other opinions.

Otherwise, believing his insistence, Thorin would still listen.

"We can't read the map, Lord Elon can help us!!"

Obviously, how to find the hidden passage at the foot of the lonely mountain requires the help of the elven king Elon, not to mention that Gandalf and Elon have always had a good relationship.

"Help? Where were the elves when the dragon burned the lonely mountain? While the orcs were raiding Moria, the elves stood by and watched, do you want me to beg the one who betrayed my grandfather and betrayed my father? "

As the battle alliance of the First and Second Ages, the elves, dwarves, and humans all have an agreement to attack and defend the alliance, and in Middle-earth, this is a sacred contract, but it is clear that the elves have already renounced it once, which naturally makes the dwarf king who has been displaced from his homeland and homeless full of resentment.

Perhaps the elves fulfilled the ancient and sacred covenant, and Thor might not have died at the hands of Asog, but unfortunately, the dwarven king Thor used his greed and arrogance to put himself in a state of betrayal, and the so-called unrighteous and helpless are nothing more than that.

However, as a descendant, Thorin Oak Shield naturally can't talk about his grandfather's sins, and can only count the elves' broken covenants.

"I gave you that key, not to make you addicted to the stories of the past, you are different from your grandfather and father, I hope you can understand!!"

Gandalf tried to make a last-ditch effort, but it was clear that Thorin didn't appreciate it.

"I don't think that's something you should keep!!"

The cold language was like a knife, stabbing Gandalf into the heart, he thought of Thorin's father Thorne's commission before his death, and thought of the evil dragon of the lonely mountain, but in the face of Thorin's stubborn eyes, a wave of anger spurted into his head.

"I'm fed up with the dwarves!!"

Gandalf was furious and wanted to find a place to calm down, and Ao Long knew that Gandalf was really angry this time, and Thorin could be regarded as laying the foundation for his actions.

"Mr. Gandalf, where are you going?"

Bilbo Baggins looked at Gandalf's angry appearance and hurriedly asked with concern.

"Leave him alone, Bilbo!"

Ao Long patted the hobbit on the shoulder, looked at Thorin over there, and motioned to Old Balin and the others not to say anything more.

"Hurry up, Pomber, we're hungry!!"

Thorin looked at Gandalf's distant figure and coldly commanded.

To be honest, Ao Long didn't like the appearance of Thorin's stinky fart at this time, but as long as it wasn't his business, he didn't bother to pay attention.

Holding a wine gourd, Ao Long found a hillside, watched the sunset, and quietly waited for tonight's big show.

Soon it was night, the silver moon was in the sky, the forest was quiet, and no one knew what kind of danger lurked in the forest.

"Oh no, our sycophants are gone!!"

The Chili brothers were the first to notice the anomaly.

"Is there a thief?"

Bilbo happened to come over and asked quickly.

"Just check it out!!"

Filip belongs to the action faction, but why push the weakest Bilbo to the front, the dwarves are really obscene.

"The one who can steal the horses must be a huge monster, let's go deep into the forest and see!!"

Sure enough, not far along, Bilbo spotted three strange people cooking dinner, and two horses tied to a fallen tree next to them, not the same ones that the expedition had lost.

The three beastly giants, who did not seem to have a high IQ, had a few fig leafs hanging on their smooth skin, and had deformed facial features on their heads, but they did not have any hair, and they seemed to be connected to the skin of their entire bodies, and there were thick stone lines on them, which looked like three spirits turned into stones were cooking dinner.

"What's that?"

It was the first time Bilbo had seen such a huge monster, three or four times his height.

"That's a mountain monster, a monster with rough skin and thick flesh that can't be cut into with an axe!! The power is endless, but they don't have good eyes!! "

Chili explained, staring at Bilbo.

"What are you looking at me for?"

"As our professional thief, I think you should go and steal those horses back!!"

Filipe explained, as if it was a matter of course for a thief to steal a horse.

Everyone didn't notice that Ao Long was in the treetops, but Ao Long thought it was very interesting, and he didn't make a move, anyway, at the critical moment, he would definitely save people.

Bilbo, who had no way to refuse, could only step forward and untie the horse's reins from a place where the mountain monster could not notice, obviously, the mountain monsters were infinitely powerful, and the tightly tied reins could not be untied.

Obviously, he was not skilled in being a thief, and was soon discovered by the mountain monsters.

"Hahaha, come and see, what did I catch? Seems like we had one extra dish for dinner!! "

One of the mountain monsters said that he seemed to be unhappy with the taste of horse meat, so Bilbo made him happy to deliver it to his door.

Hiding in the shadows, Chili realizes that something is wrong, and quickly flees back to the camp with Filip to rescue the soldiers, and finally saves the poor hobbit before the mountain monster puts Bilbo in the oil pot.
