Chapter 35 Rivendell(1/2)
"ah..."
"Morgan, you pressed my wound..."
"Sorry, I don't know you're down there..."
"Ponbo, you're so stressed that I can't breathe. It's time for you to lose weight..."
"I'm injured, I can't blame me..."
"Damn it, Philip, what's on you that's hit me..."
“…”
In the dark cave, a group of members of the expedition who had just slid down from the hole above squeezed into a group.
When one by one stood up, Gandalf began to count the heads.
"One, two, three, four...Four, fifteen..."
"Why are there only fifteen? Who is missing?"
Gandalf hurriedly looked around after clicking.
Bilbo suddenly spoke, "Gandalf, forget about yourself."
"Oh, yes, I'm confused."
Gandalf patted Bilbo on the shoulder and smiled.
At this moment, a dwarf suddenly asked, "It seems that I haven't heard the screams of those wolves. Can we take a rest?"
"no!"
"Of course not!"
Gandalf and Thorin Oak Shield spoke at the same time.
"We are not too far from the orcs now. The noses of those Gundamba wolf are very sensitive and they may come to you at any time."
"It's better to leave here first and wait until it's completely safe before resting."
Gandalf continued.
Thorin Oak Shield didn't say anything, obviously this was the case.
Soon, the expedition team continued to set off.
But this time it was not the hilly and mountain forest before, but the narrow stone path.
Gandalf continued to lead the way, and Morgan followed him.
This stone path is dark and long.
When at the entrance of the cave, it can still be reflected by the light above, which is not too dark.
The darker the more you go.
Finally, after walking thirty or forty meters, the narrow path finally turned dark.
"It's too dark here, Gandalf, can you make the highlights here?"
Duoli, who had always been the most curious about wizards, asked intimately.
Gandalf didn't say anything, but picked up his staff and put it to his mouth, blew the black crystal embedded at the top of the staff.
The black crystal soon emitted a faint light.
"It's not bright enough, Gandalf, can you make another highlight?" Dwarf Duoli continued to speak seriously.
Gandalf was a little helpless: "It's only so bright."
"All right."
Duoli no longer entangled.
Gandalf continued to move forward with a staff that emitted a shimmer.
With the illumination of the staff, the group accelerated a lot.
The stone path becomes darker and narrower the further forward.
After more than ten minutes.
Morgan followed Gandalf to stop in front of a low cave.
Although the stone path beside him was narrow, he could barely pass with Morgan's strong body.
But the cave that appeared in front of me made Morgan feel a little weak.
This cave that should be naturally formed is too small.
Morgan gestured with his hands, almost just a little bigger than his body.
The entrance of the cave is small and black.
If this person had dark phobia, he would probably not even have the courage to stand in front of this cave entrance.
Just looking at it, I feel a sense of depression coming to my face.
"What's wrong with the front?"
"Are you going out?"
At this time, the voices of dwarves came from behind.
The distance between the two sides of this narrow stone road is only enough for one person to walk.
If you stop ahead, the entire team will be blocked.
"It'll be fine soon."
"It's very fast to go out, just climb a little more."
Gandalf's reply immediately attracted the attention of the dwarves.
The dwarf in front was fine, and he saw the entrance of the cave with the glimmer of light emitted from his staff.
The dwarves behind were a little confused about what it meant to climb a distance in Gandalf's mouth.
The dwarf behind continued to ask questions.
Gandalf did not answer again but looked at Morgan with a slightly dissatisfied expression and asked, "Why, I feel uncomfortable?"
Morgan shook his head: "No, I just don't like staying in such an environment."
In fact, just imagine, you have to enter a narrower dark cave in the already narrow dark stone path.
Just imagination is already very depressing.
Gandalf was stunned when he heard Morgan's words. He really didn't expect that Morgan was so powerful in archery skills, but he was not used to this kind of environment.
"It's okay, just go through it a few more times."
Seeing that Morgan didn't seem to be joking, Gandalf reached out and patted Morgan on the shoulder and comforted him.
After saying that, he lowered his head, bent down, and then crawled into the dark cave.
Although Morgan felt uncomfortable in his heart, he was definitely not a pretentious person.
Following Gandalf, he bent over and crawled in.
Like Morgan, I feel more than one feeling of depression.
But Gandalf and Morgan, who were leading the way, have already entered.
The dwarves had to keep up with them.
Although the dwarves are small, their lateral physique is not as weak as Morgan.
Especially the bloated dwarf Pomb.
One dwarf after another crawled into the cave.
When it was Pombo's turn, he finally encountered difficulties.
As soon as he got into the hole, Pang Bo couldn't get stuck.
In the end, he could only take off all the clothes and leather armor on Pang Bo's body.
Pombo was wearing only a pair of shorts that were considered as underwear, and then he barely squeezed into the cave.
But the dwarf Duoli, who was following Pombo, wanted to push Pombo forward from behind.
I was sluggish for a long time.
The expedition team finally entered the cave.
In the dark, narrow, cramped cave, it slowly wriggled forward like a maggot.
The dwarf Bofo finally couldn't help but speak, "Such a small cave reminds me of the mine."
"You guys say, what if this collapses?"
"Shut up!"
