The Journey of the Demon Hunter

Gnaiya looked at the nearby Long Bridge and looked at the armor of the nearby Elf Guards, while Virginia cast her gaze at the white marble statue on the opposite side.

"Furthermore, this is not Zelin's initiative to leave, it's because there has been no news from someone who should have come to Rivendell a long time ago." Xisali explained to others: "That person's uncle is Zelin's friend. , So Zelin took his letter to find someone."

"Someone commissioned it? Oh, I guess so." Gnaiya chuckled, "He has always looked like me. Tell me, where did he go? I go to him, maybe I can meet him halfway through. What about him."

Virginia quietly pricked her ears.

"He went east along the avenue." Xisali pointed to the mountain road at the exit of the river valley: "It has been almost twenty days since he left."

The 2393th chapter Fengyunding

"Your Excellency, what are you going to do?"

In the early morning of the next day, the innkeeper was wiping his sweaty forehead with a towel, and he followed Zelin closely: "Horses should be sent to the stables. I know that horses are good domestic animals, and they are also ours. Sometimes I can help a lot, my buddy. I once used a horse to cross the swamp in the north. You don’t have to doubt our waiters, they know how to serve you and how to take care of the horses. . So you don’t need to lead the horse to the living room. After all, this is a place where people drink. If it smells of livestock everywhere..."

"Don't worry, Maiman, I don't have the idea of ​​letting this horse stay here forever."

Zelin led the horse into the hall, and the innkeeper kept persuading. The waiters nearby who were still wiping the desktop cast their curious eyes and bowed their heads before delaying the work at hand. There are no guests in the morning, and people are busy with their work.

"I just want to fix the rope of this trailer to the saddle, and then go."

Zelin pointed to the modified carriage that he brought from the carpenter's house when he returned with Frid last night: "If you want this horse to leave as soon as possible, why don't you come and help me? Oh, yes. , Did that lady ask for beer again last night?"

"Yes, sir." Maiman nodded, and the overlapping chin waved: "I'm going to leave a small wooden barrel directly."

"Money to you." Zelin took out a purse: "If anyone asks you, ask me to leave with someone, you just say that there are four hobbits set off with me in a carriage. See you After passing them, I came to your hotel about ten days ago."

"Ah, I'm kind of impressed."

"Yes, it's them."

About an hour later, a bay red horse walked out of the hotel with a trailer behind it. A wooden frame was supported around the trailer, covered with a canvas. This strange combination attracted curious glances from pedestrians on the road.

Zelin was riding on the horse, and the carriage was very stable, as if it was full of things. The invisible Frid sat on the carriage, Zelin raised his head, and the crow that had been on the beam flapped its wings and flew into the sky screaming.

After the gatekeeper helped Zelin open the gate, the carriage could drive out. The small door can only allow humans to walk through. It has been a long time since no one has entered the town on horseback. The human kingdom in the north has suffered a catastrophe, so that except for Gondor and Rohan, human beings in other places are like orcs. The branches are all over the world. If there are no five In the battle of the Five Armies that fought against Smaug and defeated the northern orcs more than ten years ago, perhaps the River Valley Kingdom would not be established.

The people of Bree gathered at the gate of the city, curiously watching this human, who was said to be from the south, disappeared in the distance of the dense forest trail with his strange carriage, looking at him as if he would suddenly conjure some magic. , Or flying to the sky all at once. Until Zelin couldn't see his back, a few children still stood at the door, bouncing around, and then being urged to leave by other adults.

The cold wind blew through, and the leaves in the woodland made a rattling noise.

There was a crow's scream in the sky. The silent black shadow walked through the forest, stepping the moss into the soil.

"Drive!"

The wheels rumbling over the gravel, the carriage shook abruptly.

The forests on both sides of the road receded rapidly, and the shadows of the dense woodland were like ghosts with teeth and claws, watching the vehicles running on the road.

Several tens of meters later, several black knights riding on pitch-black war horses chased them side by side, and their horses hoofed quietly across the muddy ground.

"They are following up again."

Frid knelt and sat in front of the carriage with a sickle on her knees: "It's still approaching."

"This horse is not that fast." Zelin's voice didn't panic at all: "But don't worry, we can drag it for a long time."

Just as the demon hunter had expected, not long after leaving Buri, the ring spirit chased him up again. Their speed is faster than before, the mount is still the same as usual, no matter how chasing, it will not show a trace of fatigue.

"I remember before leaving Rivendell, His Majesty Elrond said that the elf's mount can help the owner escape the darkness. I don't know how it did it, but... can you see how many enemies are behind you? "

Zelin couldn't turn his head, he asked Freid loudly, "Seven?"

"I saw four..." Frid turned her head and narrowed her eyes slightly: "No, there is one more, just jumped out of the bushes on the left."

"Five?"

"...Six, sorry, its figure was blocked by the rider in front of it just now."

"Six." Zelin repeated: "Pay attention to your surroundings, Frid, there are seven ring spirits, and there must be one of them who doesn't know where they are hiding. Maybe they are lying in front of them. No matter what happens next, it will be You must first protect yourself."

Six.

Zelin never worried about the large number of enemies, there was always a way to escape or deal with it. But the most difficult thing is the unknown enemy. I don't know where the enemy is, or what the enemy intends to do. I don't even have the possibility to think about countermeasures. After all, no one can pin the hope of winning on unfounded fantasies.

"I will." Freid replied in a low voice, "They can't get close to you."

The wheel ran over the stone, the stone collapsed and flew, fell to the side of the soil slope, and then rolled down the soil **** to the middle of the road, and then was stepped on by the horse hooves of the ring spirit mount.

Rivendell’s western border--

"Today we will rest here."

Aragorn stopped and looked at the ruins of the wind cloud top in the distance: "Soon, proceed along the road, and until tomorrow evening, you will see the entrance to the Rivendell Valley."

He looked at the four exhausted hobbits, one by one listless, supporting each other. For several days, they didn't have any rest, they set off when the sun rose, and didn't stop until it disappeared in the mountains in the east, even if it was eating, it was done on the road. Perhaps for the ranger, this is nothing, but for the four Hobbits who left the Shire for the first time, it is tantamount to a difficult expedition: "Hold on for a while, and reach the goal in two days. The ground."

"Can we really see the elves?" Sam asked curiously. Among the other hobbits, only Sam, the gardener, is in the best condition: "Like the story of Bilbo?"

"Definitely." Before Aragon could say anything, Pipin interjected: "When we return to the Shire, they will be surprised what we have experienced and what we have seen!"

Frodo, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly raised his head. He looked at the sky with some horror: "Wait, I seem to hear..."

"It's the ring spirit!" Aragorn drew out the long sword with a shudder and looked at the dark shadow that appeared in the distant sky: "Hurry up, hurry up!"

Chapter 2394: Surprising but not dangerous

"Hide, hurry!"

Aragorn pushed Frodo’s back, Sam pulled his arm, Frodo’s feet seemed to be stuck in a quagmire, and it was difficult to sneak. When Pipin and Meili ran under a huge rock, they noticed. Others are still staying in the wilderness outside.

"Hey, hurry up, hurry up!"

The two of them were about to run out, and Aragorn waved to them and motioned everyone to hide. He bent down, picked Frodo up to his waist, and rushed towards the rocky ruins on his shoulders. Sam stepped on tiptoe and ran behind the swamp.

A collapsed rock and another stone stele still standing together form a refuge. Meri and Pipin rushed in and fell to the ground, then Aragorn and Frodo, and finally Sam bent over and got in, kicking the dirt and squeezing into the gap.

Holding your breath, the dark shadows in the sky are getting closer and closer. The angular helmet outlines the outline of Jie Ling's head, and the pitch black cloak is draped on the back of the flying beast. The monster with a body length of more than seven meters spread its wings and slid across the sky like a snake in the water.

When the ring spirit riding the evil beast flew over the top of the wind and clouds, the gloomy sky seemed to become more gloomy, and the wind was also mixed with a certain rotting breath from the tomb.

"What is this...?"

Sam let out a long breath after the Ring Spirit rode his mount to the east.

"There are many terrifying creatures in Mordor, and they work for the devil." Aragorn scanned the sky, Meili wanted to climb out to see the situation outside, then he was pulled back: "Hide! It hasn't Leave!"

The black shadow disappeared on the other side, circled an arc in mid-air, and flew back again. The evil beast swooped down, lower than it used to be, and returned to the top of the wind and clouds. The wind that flapped its wings raised the dust on the top of the abandoned watchtower.
