Chapter 31: Gandalf's invitation

Views:

In the early morning of the next day, after having an exquisite breakfast early, Dongfang Yu left Shire under Bilbo's reluctant gaze. Looking at Dongfang Yu's leaving back, Bilbo's eyes were filled with a ray of The color of envy.

After walking for about half an hour, there was a big tree beside the path. On the top of the tree was a nest of sparrows. A colorful poisonous snake was coiling around the trunk and crawling towards the nest of sparrows. A mother sparrow, Chirping and shouting, but they couldn't stop the poisonous snake from advancing.

Finally, when the poisonous snake approached the bird's nest and was about to bite down, the anxious mother sparrow couldn't care less, rushed over without hesitation, and pecked the snake's beak down.

How strong can a sparrow's beak be? Although it was painful to peck the poisonous snake, it was not enough to hurt it.

The poisonous snake coiled up, spitting out the snake letter, and looked for opportunities to fight back. One snake and one bird fought like this for several rounds, and the sparrow's beak pecked fiercely at the seven inches of the poisonous snake.

The poisonous snake was in pain, and with a swish of its tail, it just hit the bird's nest, and the bird's nest flew up. The three little sparrows in it, twittering in fear, fell from the tree trunk, their small wings fluttered, but they couldn't fly at all. .

The mother sparrow yelled even more eagerly, but the three little sparrows fell, and she had no choice but to watch.

swish...

Dongfang Yu who was passing by saw it. With a touch of his feet, Lingbo Weibu started, his movements were as elegant as a banishing fairy, but his speed was as fast as lightning. , easily held the three little sparrows in the palm of his hand, and his body fell to the ground as lightly as a feather.

twitter.

The sparrow mother was even more anxious when she saw the three little sparrows landed in Dongfang Yu's palm.

Naturally, Dongfang Yu had no intention of harming the three little lives. She grabbed the fallen bird's nest, put the three little sparrows in, jumped up, and put the bird's nest back to its original position.

For Dongfang Yu, rescuing the three little sparrows was nothing more than a small effort, but the mother sparrow flew around Dongfang Yu several times, chirping and incomprehensible, but I thought it meant thanking her.

This made Dongfang Yu smile knowingly, in this world, even animals are so spiritual.

"This gentleman has some good skills." At this moment, an old voice suddenly sounded.

Looking at the reputation, Dongfang Yuxin was stunned. An old man was standing not far away, looking at her. Although he looked about eighty or ninety years old, his figure did not look stooped at all. Instead, he was as straight as a young man. Wearing a long gray robe, wearing a tall wizard hat, and holding a magic wand, with Dongfang Yu's vigilance, she didn't realize when he appeared.

"Gandalf?" Seeing this old wizard, Dongfang Yu was slightly taken aback. Judging from the time, when Gandalf and Bilbo met, it was indeed in the morning, that is to say, he was going to the Shire to find him. Bilbo, but met himself first on the road to the Shire

"Thank you, old man, for your appreciation." Dongfang Yu didn't think about following Gandalf's adventure team, so there wasn't much meaning of meeting. She replied politely, and then turned to leave.

"Sir, I don't know what to call it?" Gandalf asked, looking very interested in Dongfang Yu.

"Dongfang Yu, I am a traveler from far away. I don't know what to call the old man?" Dongfang Yu replied, although she knew Gandalf's identity, she still pretended not to know.

"Traveler?" Although Gandalf said his face was old, his eyes were clear and wise. He stared at Dongfang Yu closely. His eyes seemed to be able to see through people completely.

"Old man, what's the matter with you? If it's okay, I'll continue to travel." Gandalf's eyes made Dongfang Yu feel as if she had been stripped naked. Yu did not dare to underestimate it.

"What's the point of traveling aimlessly? Even if you're traveling, you should find a goal, don't you think?" Gandalf said suddenly.

Without waiting for Dongfangyu's answer, he saluted very solemnly, with an extraordinary bearing: "Gandalf, gray-robed wizard Gandalf, nice to meet you, Mr. Dongfangyu from far away."

What does he mean? Want to invite me to join his adventure party

Gandalf's words made Dongfang Yu slightly taken aback. Meeting Gandalf by chance, Dongfang Yu thought it was just a coincidence, and left after saying hello. However, she did not expect that Gandalf would invite her.

Seemingly seeing the doubt in Dongfang Yu's eyes, Gandalf said frankly: "Mr. Dongfang, in fact, I am looking for a companion to take risks with me. I met today by chance. I think this is the guidance of fate. I don't know if Mr. Dongfang would like to Would you like to embark on an adventurous journey with me?".

"Mr. Wizard, you and I have just met, and you invite me to go on an adventure together? Do you think I will agree?" Dongfang Yu looked at Gandalf and asked.

"My words are indeed very sudden to you, so I will wait for you under this tree for three days. If you agree, then within three days, come and find me under this tree." After thinking about it, Gan Dofu left his mouth with these words, and went straight to sit under the tree where the sparrows nested just now.

"..." Looking at Gandalf's appearance, Dongfang Yu felt a little confused in her mind for a while.

Dongfang Yu thought it was just an episode when she ran into Gandalf at first, but looking at the current appearance, it seems that a huge change has taken place before the plot begins

Gandalf, originally wanted to find Bilbo and join the team of adventurers as a thief and scout in the team, because he fell in love with the hobbit, who was short in stature, with thick pads on his feet, and walked without breath. Plus Smaug, the dragon in the Lonely Mountain, is unfamiliar with the smell of hobbits, and Bilbo's own sense of adventure.

However, just after seeing his skill in saving a few little sparrows, Gandalf recognized himself? Use yourself to take Bilbo's place

After leaving Gandalf, Dongfang Yu slowly cleared up these thoughts while walking.

From the perspective of the original book, there is a time limit for the adventurer team to go to the Lonely Mountain. The door to the secret room of the Lonely Mountain can only be opened on a certain day, and the time is very tight. I remember that in the second The Battle of Smaug, it seems It has been shown that there seems to be a year between the time Gandalf and the dwarf prince Thorin made an agreement, and then they were on the road of adventurers.

But the adventurer team went to the Lonely Mountain for at most one to two months. Looking at it this way, in order to find a suitable snitch, Gandalf searched for at least seven or eight months before finally choosing Bilbo

Thinking about it carefully, although Bilbo of the Hobbit is a candidate, he has never left home, and he does not even have the slightest ability to fight. This is indeed a big shortcoming. He has been looking for at least seven or eight months. Gandalf Just found Bilbo, didn't he? Did Gandalf also feel that Bilbo was just a choice after no choice

Such a statement is indeed feasible. After all, when he first joined the adventurer team, the dwarf prince Thorin, who was the leader, said more than once that Bilbo was just a burden, an experienced snitch, and a nothing. Understood, can ordinary people who only have some snitch potential compare? If it weren't for Gandalf's repeated assurances, it is estimated that Thorin would have driven Bilbo out of the team long ago.

Slowly, Dongfang Yu's thoughts cleared up. It seems that just now Gandalf saw his elegant lingbo microsteps and felt that he was more suitable for the adventurer team, so he chose him, right

But, should I agree to it? Dongfang Yu hesitated in her heart.

If you agree, the road will be full of dangers. If you are not careful, you may have to die in a foreign land, but at the same time, dangers and opportunities coexist. In the goblin cave, the Supreme Lord of the Rings in Gulu's hand made Dongfang Yu very sad. eager!

If you don't agree, your life is indeed not in danger, but it is difficult to find opportunities. It is very likely that you will just return to reality empty-handed in the end.

"When did I become so cowardly?" After thinking about it, Dongfang Yu gritted her teeth.

Bilbo in the original book has no fighting ability, but he is safe and sound in the end. He has a strong strength, coupled with the foresight of the plot, is it not as good as a rookie Bilbo

Supreme Lord of the Rings! ! !

This alone is enough for Dongfang Yu to take risks. If he can get the Supreme Lord of the Rings and bring it back to modern times, then no matter who he faces, he will be able to protect himself, right

Thinking of this, Dongfang Yu turned around resolutely.
