The Ultimate Evolution - 868
It turns out that although Gutes is an excellent caravan leader, he is not a good guide.
Fang Senyan, the group of people, immediately set off under his initiative, but after walking at least three kilometers sensibly, they found that they were still spinning in the woods. The woods seemed to have no end. They would look up after walking a distance, hoping to see a trace of starlight and a black sky, and eager for the feeling of wind blowing on their faces, but this kind of action was futile. The whole forest seemed to imprison them in the branches and leaves.
Apart from the sounds they made, what lingered nearby was permanent silence, long darkness, and stupefying lifelessness. Although they held the torch, the light of the torch could only show five or six meters, and then it was enveloped in pitch black-this is not the kind of pitch black that you can talk about, but you can’t see it when you swing your finger in front of your eyes. Weird.
Fang Senyan felt something wrong, because if he encountered any danger in such an environment, he could hardly fight back, so he immediately asked Wuge and said:
“What’s wrong with us? Something is wrong.”
Wuge sister closed her eyes, then shook her head slightly:
“On the fragment of the spirit knight Dole armor you carried, there was suddenly a strong dark atmosphere. I can’t feel the natural flow anymore. All I experience is madness, panic, and chaos.”
Under this situation, it is basically impossible to get people on the road. They only had to sit down again and raise a bonfire. But soon, some subtle parallel light spots appeared around them. They were a pair of yellow, Red or green eyes stared at him.
When someone approached, the light from those eyes gradually faded until it disappeared, and then slowly appeared in another direction.
Fortunately, dawn came soon, and in the faint morning light, they recognized that the owner of these eyes was surprisingly countless dark gray and black moths, some even as big as a human palm. These moths flew around with their wings flapping and whirring around their ears, sprinkling the choking powder of wings, and on the wings of these moths, there are strange smiley patterns that make people feel shocking.
Fang Senyan frowned. You must know that the contractor’s private space is completely independent of this world, and can almost isolate all aura from leaking. Now it seems that the armor fragment of the Ring Knight Dole is definitely not simple. .
However, these ghost-faced moths still couldn’t resist the power of the morning light, and slowly dissipated. The clouds on the horizon were dyed with a layer of gold, and everything was showing that it would be a very good sunny day. At this time, let the talents It turned out that they had been walking in the dark for an hour or two, and they had been walking around in a large circle. It was only one or two hundred meters away from where they had previously fought with the Ring Spirit Knights.
Needless to say, Gutes discerned the direction, and then slowly circumvented the road. At noon, he was fortunate to encounter a caravan starting from Shire. Fang Senyan bought a few After five or six hours of trekking, the animals in horses successfully arrived in the Shire.
************ The Shire is the home of the Hobbits. They are only half the height of the Numanor in the north, so they are also called halflings.
Near the Shire, you can see large tracts of farmland being reclaimed on the hills, one by one, appearing in the distance, the carpet is almost neat, and you can see it more clearly when you get closer:
The verdant spring barley is estimated to mature in two months, the dark green tubular leaves of the onion are covered with dandelion-like flowers, and the goose-yellow Beigang hops are expected to add fragrance to the wine soon, and the lavender wicks look It is being harvested, and the cart in front should contain gray-green pipe grass, which will be sent to the Shire to be made into shredded tobacco with a unique fragrance.
Following the smooth road with pitted gravel, the number of hobbits on the road has also increased. They are no more than one meter tall, reminding that they are round, with red cheeks, curly hair, and generous faces. With bright eyes and a big mouth accustomed to smiling and enjoying food, the sound of musical instruments can be heard from time to time.
Fang Senyan noticed that these optimistic little guys have hard pads and heavy brown curls on their feet. This should be a large part of their amazing speed. Many hobbits have their backs on their backs. A large long strip of cowhide.
It was only after Gutes’ explanation that it became clear that it was their weapon: the sling——you can understand it as a kind of hammer that can break the chain at any time according to the thrower’s will… The power is quite impressive. It is said that it can accelerate an egg-sized stone to an astonishing speed.
The houses of the Hobbits are somewhat similar to the form of cave dwellings, except that the roof is exposed above, and the oval wooden door is their favorite architectural style. With the increase of the oval pocket signs on the roadside and the density of houses, there are more pedestrians on the road, and it is full of dwarves, elves, Numenor people, the kind of rough laughter and the smell of gin. Mixed together, it has a unique charm.
The famous symbol of Shire appeared in the front: After the red-topped windmill, Gutes finally breathed a sigh of relief, and he could see that he had been worrying about the chase of the “Riders of the Rings” behind him. This is considered to have completely reached the sign of the Shire.
The entire Shire is built on several hills with gentle arcs. Its streets are very similar to the roads of winding mountains, and the side against the mountain walls has been dug into the form of cave dwellings, decorated with wood patterns. The unique style of the Hobbit, looking up from a distance at night, is like a lot of brightly-lit ribbons gently wrapped around the hills, giving people a particularly quiet and warm beauty.
The four of Fang Senyan chose a hotel called “Black Lamb”. The signboards here are very distinctive, and the various animals tied to the door also indicate that its business is very prosperous. After deciding where to live, Gutes, with a solemn face, was also busy with things to deal with. After all, the caravan on the return journey was completely wiped out. This kind of thing is really no small thing. His foundation is also in the Shire. There must be an explanation to everyone.
When Gust left, Fang Senyan stuffed him a small bag of clinking things. This is the eight platinum coins that Wuge sister felt sorry to stuff. This is a huge sum of eight thousand silver coins. , Gust also seemed to be in need of money, so he accepted it very readily.
When the four people entered the hotel, there was naturally a warm reception to greet the guests. They shuttled through the circle of small round tables and heavy wooden benches, breathing in ham, fried eggs, toast, ham, ale and pipe straw. The mixed aura finally settled on an empty table next to the corner that was not very clean. While waiting for the meal, Fang Senyan suddenly heard a loud voice from the neighboring table:
“I’ve never seen anyone with such a lavish shot. Really, I swear by my pipe. In order to rush from here to Eriador, I don’t hesitate to spend thirty platinum coins! More importantly, pay back I threw one to me as a tip——–that’s why I have the money to ask you to taste the bacon carefully cooked by Sister-in-law Schucher!”
There are at least a few hundred sentences per minute in such a chat in the hotel. Fang Senyan was only attracted by the words Ariador, because that was the only reason he came to the Shire——– Of course, looking for the king’s grass is now added, but then he didn’t hear any more information.
Soon, the dinner they ordered was ordered, but Fang Senyan was not in a hurry to let the lame moustache entertain him. Instead, he put ten silver coins on the table and smiled:
“This is my reward for leaving you to ask a few questions. Well, if the answer to the question satisfies me, there will be an extra twenty silver coins as a thank you gift.”
The mustache host first glanced at Fang Senyan with a puzzled look, and then put away ten silver coins:
“I only have five minutes. If it exceeds that, Queen Schucher of the back kitchen will peel off my skin. That’s at least ten platinum coins.”
Fang Senyan smiled and said:
“Do you know where there is king grass for sale?”
The mustache entertainer grumbled:
“King’s grass, hell, what is that?”
He then reluctantly asked:
“Or you can wait another hour? Can I ask for you?”
Fang Senyan raised his eyebrows:
“I will live here tonight———The second and last question, is there a firm that sells plants or plant seeds here?”
“You can find a lot of magic material merchants in the stagland. The Shire’s pipe grass is very famous, and the sages often rush to buy it. This stuff is their indispensable material for magic, the plant you need. You can probably find it there———sir, thank you for your silver coins.”
The mustache took away the silver coins that Fang Senyan had thrown on the table quickly, and then suddenly turned around and added:
“If you are coming to our hotel for the first time, it is recommended to apply a little cream on the bacon to taste even better.”
Fang Senyan smiled and nodded, but there was a question in his head all the time:
“Who is going to Eriador in such a hurry? Is this a damn coincidence or an ominous intention?” (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to start (qidian. com) Voting referral votes and monthly tickets, your support is my biggest motivation.)
