Chapter 1037 The Words of the Moon
After the dinner, Gandalf once again talked about translating the elven script.

Of course, King Elrond would not refuse. He took Gandalf, Xufeng and others to the altar of the moon.

The Moon Altar is a circular platform built on the highest point of the mountain. It is the closest to the waterfall in the valley and can receive the moonlight the most. This is the place where the Rivendell elves hold solemn ceremonies.

Sorin was naturally invited to the altar of the moon, but Sorin still had a long face, full of displeasure.

He was still dissatisfied with being "neglected" just now.

In fact, King Elrond really did not neglect their Lonely Mountain dwarves. Those silver moon vegetables and blue mushrooms are the top ingredients of the elves, and even the elves are usually reluctant to eat them.

Gandalf said in a deep voice, "Thorin, take out the map of the Lonely Mountain Palace and show it to King Elrond."

Thorin frowned and said, "We Lone Mountain dwarves don't need the help of the elves."

Gandalf frowned and said, "Shorin! The elf king standing in front of you once participated in the holy wars of the first and second eras! He has made immortal contributions to the peace of the entire Middle-earth world! His knowledge The level of knowledge is even more than mine! If you want to know where the secret door of the Gushan Palace is, you can only ask him to translate it!"

Thorin raised his head proudly, twitched the corners of his mouth, and wanted to refuse.

Gandalf said angrily: "I'm really going to be driven mad by your stubbornness! Sooner or later, you will be killed by your stubborn and arrogant character! Sooner or later!"

Xufeng hurriedly stood up to smooth things over, "Okay, okay, Sorin, give me the map."

This can be regarded as a step down for Thorin.

Thorin certainly understood this.

He didn't want to hand over the map of Gushan Palace to King Ailong himself, but he could hand over the map to Xufeng without any scruples.

So, he took out the map from his pocket and handed it to Xufeng.

Without hesitation, Xufeng transferred it directly to King Ailong.

King Elrond took the old parchment map and murmured, "This is the handwriting of an elf architect in Rivendell."

Sorin said coldly: "Hmph, what do you mean, our Lonely Mountain Palace was built by your elves from Rivendell?"

King Elrond said lightly: "Yes, of course, the parchment drawings are the best proof."

Sorin opened his mouth, wanting to refute, but couldn't come up with any good reasons for refuting.

Indeed, although the dwarves are also very good in architecture, the Lonely Mountain Palace is different from any dwarf palace that Sorin has come into contact with. The style of the Lonely Mountain Palace...does have a strong elf architectural style.

Moreover, this map about the underground chamber of the Lonely Mountain Palace is also written in Elvish language. If there is no Elvish architect, how can there be a map in Elvish language?
Another point is that the entrance to the Lonely Mountain Palace is sealed by magic, and ordinary people can't find the entrance at all, and magic is not what the dwarves are good at. Almost all the people who can really control and use magic are elves.

King Elrond said lightly: "Prince Thorin, whether you admit it or not, we are all related. The ancestors of the Lonely Mountain Dwarves once helped us, and we also repaid the Lonely Mountain Dwarves."

Sorin pursed his lips.

Gandalf sighed secretly.

Just now King Elrond had actually spoken very softly, obviously lowering his figure and wanting to have a good relationship with Sorin, but Sorin ignored it.

this guy.

He was exactly the same as his grandfather Sol who died in battle, a big bastard.

However, if they want to take back the lonely mountain, which is a military must-have, they can only rely on Sorin.

Gandalf shook his head, simply ignored Thorin, turned to King Elrond and asked, "Erdron, do you know what is written on it? Why can't even I understand it?"

It stands to reason that Gandalf is the secondary god of Maya. When he came to Middle-earth, the elves had just been created by the main god. He should naturally know all the words. After all, the elves' civilization also has his share of credit. in.

However, he couldn't understand the elf writing on it.

King Elrond smiled faintly, "Gandalf, of course you can't understand it, because these words are not pure elven words, but the words of the moon."

"The text of the moon?" Gandalf gasped, "Yes! I should have thought of it a long time ago! No wonder I couldn't understand it! It turned out to be the text of the moon!"

Bilbo asked curiously: "The writing of the moon? What is the writing of the moon?"

Princess Yawen on the side smiled and explained: "Oh, the text of the moon is a unique recording method of our elves. To put it bluntly, it is a kind of cipher text. This kind of cipher text is very special. Writing this When writing a paragraph of text, the position and brightness of the moonlight is the code to decipher the text. In other words, if you want to know what these moon texts mean, you have to wait until the moonlight is the same as the previous moonlight."

Bilbo said in amazement: "This map has some history. Who knows what the moonlight was like at that time?"

King Elrond said lightly: "This blueprint not only has the signature of the architect, but also the stamp of the time when the blueprint was made. Do you think this time is just written by hand?"

Gandalf asked worriedly: "Eldron, when was this map made?"

He is very worried that the time is different now and it cannot be cracked. In that case, they will have to wait.

It's okay if you wait a day or two, but if you wait a month or two, the dwarves will have to mess with Rivendell.

King Elrond said calmly: "This map was made 260 years ago, on the night of the summer solstice, when the first moon just rose——Prince Sorin, you seem to be destined to complete the restoration of the Lonely Mountain Mission, because tonight is the summer solstice, and the moon also happens to be the first moon."

When Thorin heard this, he felt very happy.

The previous dissatisfaction with the elves also weakened a lot.

"What's written on it?" Thorin asked impatiently.

King Elrond said lightly, "Don't worry."

Before the altar again, he spread the old parchment on the altar.

The dark clouds in the sky gradually receded, and a crescent moon appeared in the sky. The bright moonlight shone on the parchment, and a faint blue text appeared on the parchment:

"Stand by the gray stone as the thrush strikes, and the sunset of Turin's day shall shine on the keyhole."

Thrush?gray stone?sunset?
Thorin was bewildered.

But anyway, there is finally a clue.

Bilbo asked softly, "What does Turin Day mean?"

White Beard Balin explained in a low voice: "That's the New Year's Day of our Lonely Mountain Dwarves, and it's the time when we fly at the end of the summer solstice—it's less than a month away from now."
