Infinite Movie World

Chapter 1449 Gandalf

Just when the hobbit was preparing for Bilbo's birthday party happily, on a road into Bilbo's house, a young hobbit was hiding behind a big tree, waiting anxiously.

The young hobbit had fine features and beautiful chestnut curly hair. He looked very much like Bilbo when he was young, but even more handsome than Bilbo.

More importantly, he is full of vitality and full of curiosity about everything.

In him, the adventurous spirit of the Tuke family is more obvious.

He is Bilbo's own nephew, Frodo Baggins.

They have the same surname, because Bilbo's brother and sister-in-law died, so Frodo was adopted to Bilbo when he was very young, and became Bilbo's child.

Bilbo taught him patiently, so Frodo not only has good knowledge, but also has a very good character.

It stands to reason that Frodo should have stayed at home to help greet his uncle on this important day of his uncle's birthday, but Frodo ran out alone.

In this he was somewhat like his uncle Bilbo, that is, he didn't like crowds either.

Of course, he didn't come here to escape, but to wait for an old friend.

Frodo has never traveled far. For him, the happiest time is the arrival of Gandalf the gray robe mage every year when his uncle celebrates his birthday.

Every time Gandalf came, he would bring her all kinds of magical fireworks, and also bring him some popular gadgets in Middle-earth to increase his knowledge.

He also often pesters Gandalf to tell him about the outside world. He especially likes to listen to the story of the dragon slayer told by Gandalf. Although this story has been heard countless times from his uncle, it is told by Gandalf. Yes, but it has a different taste.

In Uncle's story, the dragon slayer is a friend of great affection, but in Gandalf's story, the dragon slayer is simply a god.

Now, he had hidden behind the big tree all the noon, and his stomach was rumbling with hunger, but Gandalf's carriage had not come yet.

This seems to be much later than in previous years.

Of course, Frodo knew that because this year was his uncle's 110th birthday, the celebration would naturally be more grand, so Gandalf naturally needed to prepare more things.

After waiting for a while, Frodo began to think about finding something to eat first. After all, as a pure-bred hobbit, he had to eat more than a dozen meals a day.

Just as he was about to leave, a horse-drawn van slowly appeared at the end of the street. On the seat of the van was an old man with a gray pointed hat.

The old man had a gray beard, and he was spinning the rein leisurely in one hand, while holding a filter-tipped cigarette in the other.

He lightly exhaled a smoke ring, which floated in the air and lingered for a long time, as if possessing magic.

Frodo was suddenly excited.

This old man is none other than Gandalf, the gray-robed archmage of the Holy White Council.

He had waited so long and hoped for so long, and at last Gandalf was here.

He really wanted to rush out immediately, but in the end he held back and continued to hide behind the big tree.

Of course, Gandalf, who was sitting in the carriage, also found Frodo hiding behind the big tree from afar. Every time he came to celebrate his old friend Bilbo's birthday, Frodo would hide in a similar big tree. Behind the tree, give him a "surprise".

And every time, Gandalf didn't expose it.

Although this behavior seems childish to others, both Gandalf and Frodo enjoy it.

This time too, Frodo hid behind a tree, while Gandalf continued to drive the chariot as if he hadn't seen anything.

When the carriage came to the tree, Frodo jumped out from behind the tree, and shouted to Gandalf, "Orc, today is your day to die!"

Gandalf deliberately pretended to be taken aback, and quickly asked, "Who is talking to me!"

"I am the Dragonslayer!" cried Frodo.

Gandalf immediately laughed, "Ah, the great dragon slayer! Please allow me to pay you my respects!"

And saying, he bowed to Frodo.

Frodo smiled contentedly, "Hello, Gandalf, I have you at last."

Gandalf laughed also and said, "I am glad to see you too, my little Lord Baggins! Ah, you are more mature than when I saw you last year! To tell the truth, you do look like Bilbo. "

Frodo smiled and said: "Thank you for your compliment, my uncle is a hero, I hope I will be a hero in the future...Gandalf, you once promised me to take me out for a walk, I don't know when you will be able to fulfill it What about your promise?"

Gandalf took a puff of the cigarette, slowly exhaled a smoke ring, and then said with a smile: "Don't worry, don't worry, there will always be a chance."

The vast majority of hobbits like a comfortable life, especially after the China Tobacco Factory, they can get huge and rich benefits without working hard, so they are even more reluctant to leave the Shire area Adventures, but Frodo was different, even more eager for adventure than Bilbo had been in his youth.

Back then, when Gandalf organized the Dwarf Expedition, he chose Bilbo, a member of the Took family with adventurous blood, after thousands of selections. With help, Bilbo finally joined the Dwarf Expedition, and only then did a series of legendary stories follow.

However, Frodo was different. Frodo was almost eager to go out and make a fortune.

Of course, he was still too young. As his guardian, Bilbo also knew the danger outside, so he was determined not to allow Gandalf to take Frodo away.

"You always say that," sighed Frodo despondently. "It was the same when I saw you last year, and it was the same when I saw you the day before yesterday, and it was the same when I saw you the year before... But I Already 30 years old!"

For a hobbit, thirty years old is not too old compared to a human being who is fifteen or sixteen years old.

Frodo continued to complain: "I had a chance to go out this year, but my uncle gave Pippin the chance. He asked Pippin to build a waterwheel project by himself, but he didn't let me go with him. It's really disgusting!"

Gandalf smiled and said, "Your uncle is worried about your safety. After all, he has been outside and knows how dangerous it is outside, and you are the only heir of the Baggins family. He is just protecting you."

"But he can't protect me all my life," said Frodo. "I must grow up and be independent."
