Dragonborn from Lord of the Rings

Chapter 67 Home is behind, the world is ahead
Bilbo did not remember until the end of his life how he did the following: he signed his name in a mysterious way, changed into his coat, went out without hat, walking stick, money, or any ordinary things. will bring something.

He just stuffed two pieces of clothes indiscriminately, wrapped them in a small bag, and ran out of the house like a whirlwind.

what.

He ran so fast, like a excited fawn, he ran through the streets, across the mill, and across the river, and made all Hobbiton startled.

Someone shouted: Bilbo, what are you going to do?
Bilbo Baggins was more excited and happy than ever.

His heart seemed to be flying, and he felt that everything was so happy. He found the mood and excitement he had when he ran alone to the grain forest to look for elves. He said loudly: I am going to take risks.

Then he ran out of lovely, peaceful, and always slow Hobbiton.

The people in Hobbiton looked at each other and shook their heads in unison.

Poor Bilbo.

They say: His madness has struck again.

But our Mr. Baggins has already run away by this time.He ran excitedly for more than a mile.

When he was out of breath and managed to get to Byshui Road when the clock struck eleven, he realized that he didn't even bring a handkerchief!
At this time, other people also emerged from the Green Dragon Hotel.One by one, they are leading the pony, or saluting on the back of the horse.

They had brought a great deal, and each pony had on its backs assorted luggage, parcels, and paraphernalia of all kinds.

There was also a very short pony among them, evidently reserved for Bilbo.

"You're almost late!" Thorin said, with the words "unhappy" clearly written on his stern face: "Master Baggins! We thought you weren't coming."

"I'm really sorry," said Bilbo, "but I forgot my hat, and I left my handkerchief at home, and I don't have a dime on me. I didn't see you until ten forty-five to be exact." left a message."

He stretched his head to look around again and again, as if he was looking for something.One, two, three, well, all dwarves.

"keep the change."

Barrin jumped out of the corner and mounted a burly pony: "He's not here."

He lowered himself down, and leaned his head over, like a sweet little old man, and whispered in Bilbo's ear, "You think, if people find out, oh, here is the Silver King, do you think our adventure can go on? "

Bilbo looked a little embarrassed when his mind was punctured by the wise old dwarf.

He said, "No, I didn't mean that. I was just wondering, where is the wizard?"

The dwarves all laughed.

"He's waiting for us up ahead." Bofur was kinder to Bilbo among the dwarves, maybe he was embarrassed to scare him last night, Bofur explained to Bilbo with a smile: "The man we talked about Together."

He blinked and had that look on his face that you know who I'm talking about.

Duvalin also said, "You'll have to do without handkerchiefs and a lot of other things for this trip. As for hats! I have a spare set of capes and hoods in my luggage."

"Stop talking nonsense."

Thorin said: "If there is no problem, Hobbit, we shall be off."

Facing the hat and cloak thrown by Duvalin, who was always stern-faced like Thorin, Bilbo seemed a little at a loss. Coupled with Thorin's scrutinizing eyes, he raised the contract in a panic. , said: "I signed the contract, here it is."

Balin was the auditor and chief steward among the dwarves. He took a look at it and nodded to Thorin.

In this way, Bilbo Baggins officially became a member of the adventure team.

On a fine morning just before the arrival of May, they slowly set off on the journey together on a pony full of luggage.

Bilbo wore a dark green hood (somewhat worn) and a dark green cloak borrowed from Duvalin.Both were too big for him, making him look rather comical.

But Bilbo dared not speak, for he was afraid that the dwarves would dislike him for even a little trouble.

At first they passed through the land of the Hobbits, and they went eastward, through country and river, green lands and plains, where the people were upright and decent men, and the roads were level and dotted with In one or two inns, occasionally you will meet a dwarf or a farmer who is walking leisurely.

The Shire's peace and birdsong are almost the most fascinating in Middle-earth.

Till they passed Bree and began to go into the moor, men were no more to be seen, and the way became treacherous, when at last Bilbo saw the Wizard and the Silver King ahead.

They rode horses and walked slowly on the road.

It's more like travel than adventure.

"You are so leisurely." Sorin caught up with the two people in front, and said loudly with a somewhat unhappy tone. "Leaving me this gentle, limp lump of dough hobbit, who complained more than once on the road about his horsehair allergy, and made my head explode."

The two laughed at the same time.

Gandalf turned back and said, "Perhaps you should be more patient, Thorin. He is only a little fellow traveling abroad for the first time. He is not used to it for sure, but believe me, he will impress you in the end."

The Silver King wears a long gray cloak, his face is hidden in the shadow of the hood, and the holy spirit on his crotch is as white as silver.

"Bilbo Baggins, I am very glad that you finally chose to take a difficult step. I wish you a worthwhile trip and a wonderful journey!"

He said gently to the hobbits who followed: "When you go back, you will have your own legend."

"Can you guarantee that I can go back?"

Along the way, Bilbo, who had suffered a lot, said sullenly that the joy and excitement when he went out was completely gone.He sat stiffly on a pony, his nose red from an allergy to horse hair.

Looking at this little guy who was not as tall as Nahal even when he was riding a horse, Turka smiled.

"Don't worry, you will live a long life (note)." He said, "Maybe I will attend your record-breaking birthday celebration."

"It's really a day worth looking forward to." Bilbo suddenly became happy: "Old Tooke is the longest-lived among us, at a full 130 years old, if I want to break his record, then I have to work hard Live for 80 years! Ah, my lord, you made me full of confidence in the future at once."

"Then maybe we can still catch up with your birthday party." The dwarf also came up to him laughing and joking in good faith.

Naturally, Bilbo also chatted and laughed with everyone.

So, the trip suddenly became interesting again.

They told stories and sang along the way, interrupted only when they stopped for a meal.

At this time, the wizard and the silver king always looked at them with a smile, as if admiring the vitality and bravery of these little guys.

Only in the dead of night, Turka and the wizard would discuss something quietly by the fire or in the shadows.

Sometimes you can see them worried, and sometimes you can see them smiling.Occasionally, you can even see the silver king, the wizard, and the dwarf king sitting together, quietly taking turns singing some very beautiful songs.

There are elves and dwarves.

It even made Bilbo slowly begin to feel that taking risks wasn't so bad after all.

particular.

Along the way, Bilbo kept secretly looking at the Holy Spirit with curious eyes, and couldn't help but want to reach out to touch it several times.

what.

A week out, the hobbit was emboldened.In the past, Bilbo had never imagined that such an irreverent thought would come to him.

However, every time he couldn't suppress the 'evil' thoughts in his heart, the horse of the Holy Spirit would always be the first to notice his little thoughts, and immediately glared over with its big black eyes, scaring Bilbo horribly.

In fact, he wasn't the only one, many of the dwarves also had reverence and longing for the Holy Spirit.

"That's the legendary holy spirit." Brother Qili and Feili were always talking secretly: "Let's touch it, will it bring good luck?"

Whenever this time, Bahrain would knock them on the head severely - he was the king's cousin and their elder, so he was merciless when he taught them a lesson.

"May Turin burn all your beards," said he, "how can you think so! He is a real lord, not a mascot! He has been around longer than the dwarves , when his shadow is galloping across the Central Continent, the sun and the moon haven't even appeared!"

At this time, Bilbo would always prick up his ears with great interest, pretending not to care and eavesdropping.

His thoughts will always follow the honest voice of the old dwarf, slowly drifting away, as if returning to that fascinating prehistoric time, running and wandering in Middle-earth with those holy shadows, searching for the vitality Vigorous earth.

of course.

Things don't always go well along the way.

Several times, when Bilbo woke up in the middle of the night, he always found that the stalwart figure and the holy spirit had disappeared, and only the wizard and the dwarf king were left muttering softly by the campfire.

According to the dwarves, the silver king flew back to Anuminas in the dark, riding the miraculous holy spirit.Something bad is going on there, something very serious, and the Northern Kingdom needs its King to go back and care and protect.

Only then did Bilbo realize that he was no longer a safe home in Bag End, and that the course of history lay before him.

The reason why I and many ordinary Shire residents can't feel it is because these dangers and shadows from the waves of history were first resisted by the great silver king and wizard, and even the dwarf king.

Only then did Shire's seemingly happy and comfortable pastoral life come into being.

Thinking of this, Bilbo quickly fell asleep again.

Note: The life expectancy of hobbits is generally between 100 and 120 years old, but there are also longer-lived hobbits who can live to 130 years old, such as the famous old Took in history.Turka here is only describing Bilbo's health and longevity.
