A motorcycle journey through the worlds
Chapter 128: Heading to Rivendell
"This man...what he said is true." A man in a black cloak suddenly pushed open the heavy door of the dungeon and walked in. His face was completely hidden under the wide brim of his hat. The oil lamp in his hand was emitting a dim light, just like the weak fire of hope in Xiyoude's heart that could be extinguished at any time.
"You did kill your father, and your country is now firmly controlled by others." The mysterious man's voice was low and firm, as if there was no doubt about it.
"You are lying! You liar! I will not believe your lies!" Xiyoude was already insane at this time, and his sanity was long gone.
The mysterious man sighed softly, slowly took out a ring with the striking emblem of the Rohan royal family from his arms, and said: "Your Highness, you should recognize this ring. It is a precious token that only the core members of the royal family have. Also, do you remember a secret agreement you made with His Majesty the King when you were a child? That is an agreement that only you and His Majesty the King know about."
Xiyoude's eyes widened, his face filled with shock and confusion, because this secret agreement was indeed only known to him and his father.
The mysterious man continued, "The reason I know this is to prove to you that what I said is true. You are a sinner, there is no doubt about that, but the real sin was committed by me, because..."
"Your Highness, I will let you leave now. The necessary horses, weapons and luggage have been prepared for you. You can go to Rivendell. I heard that the great King Elrond is holding an important meeting there regarding the future fate of Middle-earth. Not only will representatives from human kingdoms, but even dwarves and elves will be there. Go there and explain everything that happened here to King Elrond and the grey wizard Gandalf, and try to gain their trust. Here is a secret letter I prepared... and a confession... I hope it will be helpful to you... I will stay by his side... try my best to gain his trust and gain more power from him... I want to be, the second... Grima? Wormtongue..."
Perhaps the blow was too heavy, which made Xiyoude fall into a strange state of numbness. For a while, he calmed down temporarily. After all, he was the future crown prince that the people of the country had high hopes for. Although he was a little immature, he had already shown some of the style of a great and capable British king. With a clear mind at this time, he finally saw many key points that had been overlooked.
"Very good then! I will go to Rivendell, even if it costs my life to prove it, I must gain the trust and support of the elves and Gondor. Rohan, when I return, it will be the end of that demon!" Then his eyes moved to the blond man who had been listening silently at the side, "What about you? You already know too many secrets. I will give you a chance. If you are willing to help me to avenge that demon, I will not kill you."
"...Do I still have a chance to choose?" The blond man's face changed several times, and then he finally compromised with a helpless smile.
And further away, the man in a blue robe sitting on the throne of the Medusikum Palace, with his eyes slightly closed, his chin resting on the back of his hand, smiling, he muttered to himself: "That's right... this is how the game should be..."
Now, under the secret arrangement of the new fourth marshal of Rohan, the two prisoners in the dungeon finally succeeded in a thrilling jailbreak. They rode on the best horses of Rohan and were heading towards the elven city of Rivendell in the Ling Valley. King Aron, one of the three great elven kings, was holding an important meeting there to decide how to deal with the One Ring. All human countries, dwarf countries, and elven countries would send important representatives to participate. As long as Prince Siyud could get there in time, he might get powerful help from other countries and overthrow the dark regime established by Ling in Rohan.
However, in the original movie, the reason why Rohan was the only country that did not participate in the "Lord of the Ring Conference" was not without reason. In addition to the wanton destruction of Saruman's soul and Grima Wormtongue, which caused the political situation in Rohan at that time to fall into chaos and had no time to take care of external affairs, there was another most critical factor, which was Rohan's geographical location.
Rohan and the elven city of Rivendell in the forest valley are separated by the towering misty mountains, which are covered with ice and snow. The only passage is the Rohan Pass in the west of Rohan. It is the only huge break in the misty mountains and the only thoroughfare to the left and right areas. It has always been a battleground for military strategists.
But the problem now is that not far to the north of Rohan Pass, at the intersection of Misty Mountains and Fangorn Forest, is the territory of the White Wizard Saruman - Isengard, the military fortress of the Uruks. After Saruman betrayed justice, the first thing he did was to use the power of the northern barbarians to forcibly capture Rohan Pass with the Uruks army, separating the human kingdom from the elves, and leaving Rohan in a difficult situation of isolation and helplessness.
There are only three ways to cross the misty mountains, which are as steep as the Himalayas:
1. Cross the Pass of Rohan and pass through the blockade of the Orc army; 2. Go through the Mines of Moria, the dwarf city in the middle of the Misty Mountains, and pray that you will not be discovered by the Hellfire lurking there; 3. Go directly over the Misty Mountains and struggle to survive in the endless ice, snow, cold wind and thin air.
In the original film, in order to avoid Saruman, the Fellowship of the Ring led by the grey wizard Gandalf initially chose to cross the Misty Mountains directly, but they were discovered by Saruman, who directly launched an earthquake magic at a super long distance in Isengard, causing a devastating avalanche that almost buried the entire Fellowship of the Ring and forced them back. In the end, Gandalf and his crew had to choose the second method and cross the mines of the dwarf city of Moria. After going through many hardships and traveling underground for four full days, they finally successfully arrived at Fangorn Forest.
Prince Siyud didn't know where the secret passage to the Moria Mine was. The blond man suggested that the two of them finally chose the latter. After all, they were a small target, and they didn't carry the Supreme Lord of the Rings that would attract the attention of Saruman and the Dark Lord Sauron. In addition, the horses prepared by the mysterious man for them were one in a hundred, and they were extremely majestic. Ordinary orc troops could not catch up with them. If they encountered a small group of orc troops or northern barbarians, they would have a greater chance of breaking through by force. Facts have proved that their choice was indeed very correct. They were relatively smooth along the way and did not encounter a large army.
