Chapter 25 The Fall

The fire light gradually spread along the silent giant, shining brightly and hotly on the silent underground.Sweat ran across the old blood-stained face of the gray-robed wizard, and his eyes showed a kind of determination: "The Balrog, the ancient demon. You are no match for it." "What is that?!" Pippin widened his eyes. "There's no time to explain this, run!" Everyone felt the heat coming from a distance, no longer hesitated, and followed the gray-robed wizard to run in big strides.

"Follow me, Hyman." The doctor rejected the elf's hand extended again. This kind of holding at a critical moment will definitely cause inconvenience, not for the useless self, but for the elf.The elf was worried and warned in a low voice.The doctor turned his head to look at the approaching red light, his ashen face was covered with fine sweat, and the pores of his face felt moderate heat, even at such a distance, let alone approaching.The doctor held his bandaged arm and ran to follow the pace of the team.

The staff of the gray-robed wizard illuminated the dark road ahead, and everyone ran out of the magnificent hall of the dwarves and entered the suspended stone staircase.The not-so-wide stone ladder meanders in the deep pit, as if suspended in the darkness. Below is a pitch-black mine pit. Boromir ran too fast and dropped the torch, and the firelight did not reach the bottom of the pit.

The fighting and running violently just now made the gray-robed wizard lean against the entrance of the cave. The doctor reached out and grabbed Gandalf's wrist, his pulse was fierce and weak!It is the consumption of his strength!He couldn't help but look at the gray-robed wizard: "Gandalf!" The gray-robed wizard turned a deaf ear and grabbed the ranger behind him: "Lead them, Aragorn. The bridge is almost here!"

"Gandalf!" The doctor couldn't help but yelled again, and was yelled by the gray-robed wizard: "Hyman! Why don't you understand, inappropriate hesitation is the last thing to do! You are too merciful!" The doctor was stunned, bowed his head in silence, His black hair was covered with sweat, and his expression could not be seen.The elf put his arms around the doctor's shoulders: "Keep running, Hyman."

"Listen to me and go! Swords cannot resist the Balrog!" The gray-robed wizard pushed Aragorn away, holding up his wand to light the way ahead.Everyone began to move quickly on the hanging ladder.Encountered a broken road on the way, the rock at the entrance has begun to crack, the roar of the Balrog can be clearly heard, the elves jumped over first, followed by Gandalf.Just as the gray-robed wizard stood firm, the orcs on the rock began to shoot arrows. "Quick!" the elf urged, turning his head and shooting the archer down, while the hobbit and the doctor were thrown across the path by Boromir.

Due to the weight, another piece of the broken road collapsed, rolling and falling into the black pit. "No one can throw a dwarf away!" Jin Li jumped over the broken road with an ax in hand, just stepped on the side of the broken road, and was about to fall!The doctor grabbed his beard in desperation: "Don't grab my beard!" You have to catch it, the doctor was about to be dragged into a deep pit by the weight of the dwarf, a pair of strong hands wrapped around the doctor's waist, The man pulled back the hanging ladder: "Be careful." Boromir split the sharp arrow, avoiding the doctor's eyes.

"Frodo!" exclaimed Sam.The stone way on which Aragorn and Frodo stood began to crumble, and the two shook with the shock: "Lean forward, Frodo," cried Aragorn, and all were anxious.It seems that Vera is still on their side, and the collapsed suspension road has become a passage connecting the broken parts.Frodo and Aragorn hastened over the fallen stone path before it slipped, and came to the opposite bank.

"Let's go!" The gray-robed wizard seemed anxious, pushing and shoving the people around him.Everyone quickly approached the destination, and at some point, raging flames ignited all around, almost burning the dwarf's mine.

Balrog is coming!Holding a staff and a sword, the gray-robed wizard stood fearlessly in front of the ancient demon.The fire was too hot, and the flames emitted dazzling colors. The heat wave blew the gray-robed wizard's messy hair, revealing a wise and resolute face.

The Balrog appeared in the fire, revealing the ferocious face of an ancient demon.It is a monster with huge and powerful limbs, but its body is not smooth scales, it is more like the color of burnt charcoal. Its head has huge and sharp horns, which looks powerful and fierce. The fire is its eyes.He walked towards everyone with slow steps that trembled in the underground world, one foot was an earthquake, and each time was a long distance.

It looked at the tiny wizard and opened its huge hot mouth, wanting to burn everyone in front of it into coke or eat them like they were in their stomachs.Everyone ran up the bridge quickly and walked through the bottomless abyss.The doctor hurried past, heart pounding. "Gandalf!" cried Frodo, and the crowd turned round.

The gray-robed wizard stood in the middle of the bridge, holding a sword, ignoring the shouts of the hobbit, blowing his white hair enthusiastically, and the doctor clearly saw the old man's insistence: "You can't go over!" The Balrog became angry and swung his bat Its huge wings are like a dragon, and its body is burning with flames.

"I am the servant of the holy flame, holding the blazing flame of Arno..." the gray-robed wizard chanted an obscure incantation, and raised his staff to block the white fiery sword swung by the Balrog.The doctor could clearly hear the harsh sound of hard objects colliding, and he squeezed the elf's hand tightly, as if he was cheering up Gandalf, but they all knew that there was nothing they could do.

The Balrog couldn't take a single blow, and became even more annoyed. He roared and transformed into a whip of fire, which shot out fiery tongues in the air. "Go back to the darkness!" the gray-robed wizard yelled angrily. He raised his staff and slammed it into the ground, "You must not pass!!!" The Balrog rushed over and was led into the abyss by the collapsed stone bridge.The gray-robed wizard was out of breath, and turned his head to smile at the crowd, who also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Gandalf!!!" The gray-robed wizard was dragged by Balrog's last struggle after falling, hanging on the broken part of the stone bridge and trying to climb up.Frodo tried to charge, but Boromir stopped him. "Go, you fools." The grey-robed wizard looked calm on his dirty face, quietly looked at the panic-stricken crowd, and let go.

"No!!!" Frodo screamed with wide-eyed eyes, and everyone couldn't believe it. They couldn't believe that the gray-robed wizard who had been leading them through the difficulties had just left like this! ! !The doctor's hand was sore now from being pulled by the elf, but he had no time to take care of it.He felt a heartfelt sadness welling up in his heart, blocking his chest and preventing him from breathing.

"Aragorn!" Gandalf's echoed cry came from the abyss, and the ranger turned and left as if returning from a world of ecstasy.

Everyone finally came out of the gloomy and dangerous mines of Moria, seeing the light again did not make them feel a little happy, but the sun shrouded their bodies and they felt a little chilly.Gandalf is gone, and there is only time to grieve after being safe for the time being.A gigantic hand clutched at the throats of the crowd, and they tightened, and the hobbit wept bitterly, and Boromir dragged Gimli, with wet blood on his face, and the doctor buried his head in the elf's arms, and they cuddled together , without saying a word.

Their guide lights are gone.

Aragorn wiped his sword: "Get up." "Let them be quiet! For God's Valar's sake!" "The orcs will flock to us as soon as it gets dark, and we must rush to Lothlorian. "Aragorn was very calm, or so it seemed.The doctor and the elf pulled the hobbit up from the ground.

"Frodo!" Aragorn called to Frodo, who was advancing, and he turned his head, and tears filled his pure blue eyes across his face, which seemed so young to the doctor.He looked at Aragorn silently, as if saying, it's time to get on the road.

The crowd finally left the barren stone land and entered the forest.The trees in the forest are lush, the branches are thick, and the leaves are rustling by the wind.Logically speaking, it should be a very comfortable scene, but vigilance made everyone tense up.Their weapons never left their hands.Gimli said in a low voice from behind: "Hold on tight, hobbit. I heard that there are terrible witches living here."

"This looks familiar." The doctor turned his head and asked the elf.The elf raised his slender eyebrows, a smile appeared on his handsome and tidy face, but he didn't speak.Jin Li's voice was deliberately lowered: "She is an elf with great power, just look at her and you will be bewitched..."

Thinking about it, the doctor looked at the elf in surprise, and the elf nodded.Is it here?The doctor stretched relaxedly, and it seemed that he could sleep well tonight.In fact, as far as the doctor is concerned, he doesn't believe that the wizard is dead, not because he knows anything, but because he has a force that makes him believe it.

"She can't fool me, a dwarf. I have the eyes of an eagle and the ears of a fox..." Gimli was still chattering.The doctor turned his head and smiled meaningfully. Let's wait and see, Jinli.

With a stagger, the elf embraced the doctor who was hitting the arrow, without the panic of others.

"This dwarf is too noisy, you can kill him with your eyes closed." Halda walked into the crowd with arrogance. His long pale golden hair was scattered around his shoulders, and only the hair on his forehead was carefully tied at his temples. He was arrogant and handsome. .

"[Long time no see]!" The doctor greeted him and other friends, and asked his help for his dagger. After a long time no sense of distance, he greeted him with a smile, and the elf nodded.

"【We come to ask for help, we need your protection】." Aragorn stepped forward and explained his purpose. "We should turn back, Aragorn, this forest is too dangerous." "You can't turn back when you come to the territory of the Queen of the Forest."

"Don't worry, nothing will happen." The doctor calmed the panicked crowd.The Doctor's words had effect, and Frodo stopped panting violently.The arrogant elf glanced at the doctor, turned away without threatening them, and said, "Come on, she's waiting for you."

Everyone entered the depths of the forest and came to a fairyland that had never been seen before.Huge white towering giant trees tower into the clouds, neat and clean paths shuttle among them, and sunlight pours through the leaves.The spiraling steps, the white sculptures that can be seen everywhere, the houses built on trees, and the slender elves with soft light come and go.There is an obvious elf color here, holy and peaceful.Everyone looked around, the atmosphere here calmed them down.

The not-too-short trek made the sky dim, and the forest lit up with lights like starlight.

The golden forest has arrived.

The author has something to say:

There are too many things recently, so I will comment again tomorrow la la la la

I'm a few minutes late today, I didn't mean it, I'll be on time next time.

Gandalf is leaving temporarily, and the serious plot is temporarily over (it's just half a chapter or a chapter of sweetness, don't expect too much.)
