it's clear.
The clouds are thin.
A ball of light hung high in the sky.
Golden warm sunshine shines on the earth.
On the road from Gushan to Changhu Town.
"Bang bang bang bang..."
The sound of horse hooves is loud.
A team of four people on horseback galloped down the road.
Walk quickly towards the distance.
I ran wildly for a while.
The speed of the four-person team slowed down a lot.
At this time, a voice sounded from behind the team.
"Gandalf, this seems to be the way to Mirkwood?"
"Yes..."
At the front of the team, an old man wearing a pointed hat and gray robe turned his head and said with a smile: "This is indeed the road to the Mirk Forest, but we are not going to the Mirk Forest."
"Continuing forward from this road, we will reach the Mirkwood Mountains, and then change the road from there..."
"This is the fastest way for us to get to Rivendell."
As he spoke, the old man in gray robe took off the cigarette rod from his waist very naturally and started smoking.
The three people behind them also took off the water bottles on their horses and drank water.
These four are naturally the four Morgan Tarrel and Gandalf Bilbo who left the Lonely Mountain.
I said goodbye to all the humans and dwarves in Lonely Mountain early in the morning.
He rode wildly for several hours before slowly slowing down.
"Gulu gulu..."
I took several big gulps in a row.
Morgan put down the kettle and took a long breath, turned his head and looked at the towering lonely mountain in the distance behind him, then looked at Gandalf and asked: "How long will it take for our trip to Rivendell?"
"Bah..."
Gandalf lit the cigarette in his hand, took a puff, and exhaled the smoke before saying, "If everything goes well, we can arrive there in about twenty days."
"If it doesn't go so well, it should take about a month..."
"Of course, our trip this time is to go to Rivendell. There are no tasks or anything else, so there is no need to rush."
"Don't worry too much about time."
Gandalf said with a smile, and continued to squirt.
"Then what's not going well?"
At this time, Bilbo, who had put the kettle back on the horse's back, asked: "I mean what will make our trip difficult?"
"There are many answers to that question, Bilbo..."
Gandalf smiled and looked at Bilbo and continued: "For example, we encountered a blizzard, a heavy rain, of course, there are rarely heavy rains now, or there were attacks by other creatures..."
"Anyway, anything could slow down our trip."
Gandalf said leisurely while smoking his cigarette.
"Are you worried about something, Bilbo?"
Morgan answered with a smile, jumped off the horse, and then led the horse towards a small puddle of melted snow not far away.
"Are we going to pass through the Misty Mountains this time?"
"I heard Gandalf mention it before..."
Seeing Morgan's operation, Bilbo immediately jumped off his horse and led the smaller horse to the small puddle on the side of the road. As he walked, he said, "I'm just worried that we will encounter orcs again."
"Don't worry about that..."
Gandalf smiled and knocked the finished cigarette rod on his hand, picked out the cigarette shit, filled it with tobacco again and said: "After this battle, I believe those orcs will be quiet for a long time. .”
"But this time we are going to the Mirkwood Mountains."
"That place has long been enveloped and polluted by the dark shadow."
"We might run into some trouble..."
At this time, Morgan had just taken a pack of mutton jerky from Tarrell, picked up a few pieces from it, threw it into his mouth, chewed it and said, "Since we are in trouble, can we take a detour?"
"Anyway, this time is for fun. We have brought enough food. As you said, Gandalf, there is no need to pursue time too much."
Gandalf looked at Morgan without surprise and nodded: "Of course, I thought so at first."
“But after I thought about it, I realized I left that path.”
"Our latest road to Rivendell takes at least three months."
"What do you think?"
Bilbo reacted immediately after hearing Gandalf's words, shaking his head like a rattle: "No, three months is too long."
"It won't be far from spring in the Shire then."
"You promised me to go to my hometown Bree together."
Bilbo said, looking at Gandalf and then at Morgan with a determined expression.
Facing Bilbo's gaze, Gandalf continued to smoke leisurely, and then looked at Morgan.
Morgan slapped his stallion on the butt, which was harassing Tariel's mare again, and was about to speak.
Tauriel beside him suddenly smiled and said: "Then follow the path you planned, Gandalf."
"Anyway, with the strength of all of us, there is really no need to worry about some minor troubles."
Tariel said and looked at Morgan.
If his own woman, no, it was a female elf, said this, what else did he have to say?
It's all trivial anyway.
Yes, just last night.
Just at dawn the day before yesterday, the Elf King Thranduil took a group of wood elves and set off for the second night of the Dark Forest.
Morgan completely transformed Tariel into a female elf that only belonged to him.
Then.
He discovered that after the two of them lingered all night last night.
There were some changes in Tariel's temperament.
Tauriel began to speak for him and make some small decisions for him, showing a tendency to develop into the role of a wife.
Although Morgan himself enjoys it.
"Tauriel is right..."
"I also think so."
Morgan nodded immediately and continued to change his words without restraint: "There is really no need to waste too much time on some minor troubles."
Gandalf looked at Morgan and the female elf with a smile.
I just feel like there will be a lot of excitement along the way.
Bilbo was also looking at Morgan and Tariel.
But what he was thinking about was not excitement, but: "If I take a wife in the future, will I be like Morgan and the female elf in front of me?"
The team didn't rest for long.
After feeding the horse water and food, take a short rest.
The team is on the road again.
At this time, the four of them were on the road next to Changhu Lake and had not yet left the Gushan range. Looking behind them, they saw the towering Gushan covered with snow.
Looking towards the long lake ahead, you can also see the ruins of Long Lake Town, which was destroyed by the evil dragon Smaug on the other side of the long lake.
"Bang bang bang bang..."
The sound of horse hooves sounded again.
The four-person team quickly ran forward.
Time passed slowly.
The light group on the edge of the sky is slanting westward.
The sky began to darken.
The cold wind howls in the mountains.
A forest edge.
Four figures are busy.
Three of them were busy picking up dead branches and dry firewood, and one was feeding the horse.
After a while.
Morgan and Gandalf Bilbo each carried back a large bundle of dry firewood, and the four horses were almost fed by Tariel.
It didn't take long.
A strong bonfire was lit.
Immediately drove away the surrounding cold.
The four of them sat around the campfire and started preparing for today's dinner.
Gandalf took out beef jerky and a small flagon filled with dwarf spirits from his package.
Bilbo also took out dried meat and a small flagon, but he took out dried pork.
Compared with Gandalf who likes beef jerky, Morgan likes mutton jerky, and Bilbo obviously prefers pork jerky, and he likes to eat pork the most.
The female elf Tariel took out dried tomatoes, raisins and a kettle.
When the three of them were preparing to eat.
But he saw that Morgan on the side had quickly made a simple stand with a dagger, the kind that could be placed on a campfire.
"Morgan, what did you do with this?"
Bilbo finally saw what Morgan had done and asked in surprise.
Gandalf and Tariel also looked over immediately.
Because they all have survival experience of staying overnight in the wild for a long time.
With Bilbo's hint.
The two men immediately saw that what Morgan had made was a campfire stand.
They all thought Morgan was just getting a large firewood for the night, but they didn't expect that he quickly made a stand.
It's just that everyone didn't bring a cooking pot or anything, so why make such a rack?
Morgan did not respond immediately to Bilbo, but quickly sharpened the four legs of the stand with a sharp dagger.
Then, he lifted the stand and placed it above the strong bonfire.
I saw that the campfire stand I made for the first time was placed over the campfire well without being burned.
Morgan was in a good mood.
"You will know soon..."
After slightly adjusting the placement of the campfire stand, Morgan smiled mysteriously at the three of them.
Then he left the fire and strode out of the forest.
The three people beside the fire looked at Morgan's figure walking out quickly. They looked at each other in shock.
"What does Morgan want to do?"
Bilbo wondered again. He really couldn't think of any other use for such a campfire stand besides hanging a pot for cooking.
"Perhaps he wants to use it to bake something."
Gandalf said, picking up the flagon and taking a swig of wine.
Tariel quietly picked up the dried tomatoes and stuffed them into his mouth. After chewing a few mouthfuls, he said, "Didn't he say it? You'll know it soon."
"We'll just wait."
That's all.
Bilbo nodded and stuffed a piece of pork jerky into his mouth, feeling as curious as a cat scratching his head.
Morgan never does those inexplicable things.
Outside the forest, Morgan walked to a meadow filled with white snow. A cooking pot with a hook and a spoon appeared in his hand.
This is the tableware Morgan asked Bud to prepare for him before leaving.
His dimensional ring now contained not only cooking pots and spoons, but also bowls and chopsticks for four people, as well as salt and some spices.
Yes, he has already planned to expose his possession of dimensional space equipment to these people.
Because it is too frustrating and uncomfortable to carry a long-distance artifact like the Dimensional Ring and not be able to use it openly.
What's more, there is also the female elf Tauriel who has become his pillow.
Morgan felt it was unrealistic to keep it a secret.
Moreover, with his current strength, there is no need to hide it in front of his woman and familiar friends.
Of course, how to tell a few people about this also requires a method.
He would not directly tell everyone about the ring.
Instead, he will say that he has a magical magical equipment.
After all, there is the One Ring owned by Bilbo.
It was nothing if he had a magic ring.
Thinking of this, Morgan took the cooking pot, quickly filled it with snow, and pressed it with a spoon, squeezing and squeezing it.
After the snow water melts, there will be much less. Simply filling a pot with snow and boiling it is far from enough for four people to drink.
It didn't take long.
When Morgan walked into the forest again carrying the big cooking pot and walked towards the bonfire.
The three people sitting around the campfire were stunned.
"Morgan, when did you bring the cooking pot, why didn't I see it?"
Bilbo, curious, was the first to ask.
"There is actually a pot and spoon..."
Gandalf was also surprised and said: "Morgan, I remember you have fewer packages than me. Where did you hide this cooking pot before?"
Tariel looked at Morgan with equally beautiful eyes, but she did not speak, but fell into deep suspicion.
She slept with First Time Morgan last night.
We also got up together early this morning.
When Morgan said goodbye to Bard of Riverdale in the morning, she was holding his horse.
She knew very clearly that Morgan never brought a cooking pot.
But the cooking pot was clearly in Morgan's hands.
Is she dazzled?
Are Gandalf and Bilbo both dazzled?
If it wasn't dazzling, there was only one possibility: Morgan had picked up the cooking pot.
"They all seem curious?"
Morgan said with a smile, walked towards the campfire, and casually hung the cooking pot filled with accumulated snow on the campfire rack.
Sitting next to Tariel, looking at the doubtful looks cast by the three of them, Morgan smiled, and then said in the most casual tone: "It's nothing, I just have a piece of magic equipment."
"A magical piece of equipment with storage capabilities."
The words fell.
A carrot immediately appeared in Morgan's empty hand.
Fresh carrots, not the dried carrots inside Tariel's wrap.
The next second.
The carrot disappeared out of thin air.
Another purple onion appeared in Morgan's hand.
Watch a magical scene.
All three were restrained.
In this world, magic equipment is not very rare.
For example, the staff in Gandalf's hand is considered a piece of magic equipment.
Regardless of whether it works or not, anything related to magic can be regarded as magic equipment.
There are also the most well-known three rings of elves, seven rings of dwarves, and nine rings of humans, all of which are magic equipment.
As for the Supreme Lord of the Rings on Bilbo, it is also a magical equipment.
It is also the most terrifying piece of magic equipment in the entire world.
Watch Morgan's magical operation.
Tauriel, who was beside him, was the first to react.
No wonder Morgan didn't bring anything with him on this trip. He couldn't even find a single gold coin on his body. It turned out that they were all hidden in magic equipment.
Bilbo looked at Morgan with curiosity and surprise.
He also has a piece of magic equipment, which is the magic ring he picked up from under the underground Goblin Kingdom, but the ability of the ring he possesses makes him invisible instead of being used for storage.
Among the three, the one who had the biggest reaction at this time was naturally Gandalf.
Looking at the onion in Morgan's hand at this time, thinking about what Morgan just said.
Gandalf couldn't help but frown deeply, looked at Morgan and asked in a deep voice: "What is your magic equipment?"
"The ring?"
