Chapter 196

"Moria..."

Gandalf whispered and turned his eyes to the voice still echoing between the snow peaks and valleys. His eyes were blurred and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"We should go, Gandalf."

Looking at Gandalf, who was speechless and distracted for a moment, Morgan couldn't help saying.

"Go."

Gandalf looked back, nodded to Morgan, and then shouted to Aragon and bolomir in the rear: "turn around, let's go to Moria."

Soon, the ring expedition moved again and headed for the coming road.

"Hoo... Hoo..."

The bitter wind was wrapped in snowflakes.

The wind and snow on the karanlas snow mountain is even stronger.

Three days later.

The expedition left mount Carreras.

But Morgan knew it was not a giant octopus, but an evil and powerful giant monster.

"Everyone, you can have dinner."

Then Sam's voice interrupted Morgan's meditation.

Taking the plate from Sam, Morgan chewed the sausage with a knife and fork, and his eyes fell on the black river not far away.

To tell the truth, with the strength of the team at this time, ordinary monsters dare to find it. It's just sending vegetables.

Morgan was not afraid of the monster in the river.

Of course, there must be no need to deliberately look for the monster.

In addition to Gandalf himself, there are several powerful ring protectors from various ethnic groups, but there are four hobbits who can't talk about strength.

On snowy days, the sky was darker than usual.

In the afternoon, the sky is as dark as night.

When the expedition finished their dinner.

It's completely dark.

It's just that there is no possibility of starlight in the cold and dark night sky.

And moonlight

"If there were no moonlight, wouldn't we be able to get in?"

The restless Pippin asked again.

"Yes, the stone gate can't appear without moonlight."

Gandalf nodded and smoked.

"But in this weather, can we wait for the moonlight tonight?"

Pippin continued.

This made people look up at the night sky unconsciously.

It's just that the night sky is dark.

Nothing there?

Bolomir's mouth suddenly moved and seemed to want to say something, but he didn't speak at last when he looked at Gandalf's not very good-looking face.

"It's still early. What's the hurry?"

Morgan said casually, although Pippin had some truth.

However, in this case, what people want is courage and confidence, not a big mouth that has to insert a few words to make people upset.

According to the situation of the expedition at this time, Lohan pass and karanlas mountain can't go.

Except through Moria.

The expedition had almost no way to go.

There is no turning back at this time.

The expedition team did not look as harmonious as the surface.

At least Morgan knew that bolomir had been arguing to go through Rohan pass to Gondor.

As Morgan's voice fell.

There was a moment of silence in the expedition.

Pippin and merry obviously didn't realize anything, and soon they chattered again.

The dull atmosphere was broken by the two.

Legolas chatted with Aragon who was sitting aside.

Jinli sat by the river watching the water.

Morgan wanted to speak, but he swallowed it again.

Frodo and Sam closed their eyes against another tree.

In recent days, people's sleep time and quality are not very good, which is why people close their eyes and take a nap when they have a little free time.

Time passed slowly.

They spent about three or four hours in the boring waiting.

The dark night sky suddenly brightened.

Slowly, as the cool light gradually flourished, a white crescent moon appeared in the air.

"Moonlight, moonlight appears."

Pippin looked at the night sky and shouted immediately.

As his voice fell, a white light in the shape of a door quickly lit up on the stone door on one side.

Gandalf looked happy, then got up, strode to the light door and looked carefully at the flashing characters above.

"The gate of Turin, the Lord of Moria, speak, friend, and then enter..."

"What does that mean?"

"It's very simple. As long as it's a friend, just say a secret word..."

"Will you, Gandalf?"

"Of course, it's not difficult for me."

“......”

Ten minutes later, Gandalf looked at the light door in front of him and said, "no, I used to be familiar with the spells of elves, humans and even orcs..."

"I seem to see something..."

Morgan looked at the light door and opened his mouth. Naturally, he knew the characters engraved on the light door in front of him: "Gandalf, what do you say" friend "in ELF language?"

“*****”

Gandalf said casually.

The voice fell.

"Click click..."

The harsh sound suddenly came from the shimmering stone gate.

The stone gate that could not see the gap was opened slowly at once.

The faces of the people immediately showed a happy look.

Just then.

"Wow, wow..."

A fierce stream of water sounded.

A huge, dark, thick, smooth tentacle with suction cups suddenly stretched out from the river behind and went straight to Frodo standing behind the crowd.

The giant tentacle was so fast that it was about to drag it into the river as soon as it caught Frodo.

Frodo, who had not yet figured out the situation, realized that he had been caught. He immediately looked frightened and shouted, "help me!"
