Minas grotto.
The sky is forever shrouded in thick clouds.
The former "Tower of the moon" is now around the "city of death" Minas grottoes.
On the mount efeldoas, below the chilisugo pass.
On a steep mountain road.
Three small figures are struggling forward.
These three are naturally the precepts Frodo, the gardener and partner Sam, and Gollum.
Ever since I said goodbye to faramir in the old capital of Gondor, "osjilias".
Led by Gulu, the two little hobbits came here carefully all the way.
"Hoo Hoo..."
With the mountain wind with the smell of sulfur blowing from the huge mount doomsday, it swept over the mountains again and again.
The three small figures on the steep mountain road finally stopped after struggling for more than half a day.
When the sky became darker and darker.
Frodo's three finally prepared to spend the night on a barely Flat mountain road.
It seems that it's getting closer to Mount Doom.
Not only in the wind, the air is full of volcanic smell, but also the temperature in the surrounding air is much higher than that in other parts of the Middle Earth world.
You know, it's winter at this time.
But here, Frodo and Sam only wear short long sleeved clothes.
The mountains and peaks here are inch grass, bare mountain rocks, and hunting is impossible.
Fortunately, when roslorian left the golden forest, several pieces of the Elven marching bread "lambas" presented by Mrs. Galadriel had not finished yet.
With the food intake of the two little hobbits and the energy of "lambas", it is estimated that it will be no problem to support them to reach doomsday volcano.
The three hobbits who simply ate some marching bread soon rested.
Climbing such a steep mountain is extremely tiring.
Frodo and Sam soon fell asleep.
Gulu opened his eyes immediately after hearing the slight snoring of the two little hobbits.
Soon, after repeatedly confirming that the two hobbits were asleep, Gulu got up, came to Sam and carefully opened the package Sam had been carrying.
Soon find lambas, the elf panel wrapped in green leaves.
Gulu grinned with a ferocious smile. He immediately crushed a RAMBAS and sprinkled it on Sam.
Then he immediately threw all the lambas in the package to the nearby cliff.
Watching the annoying fairy bread quickly fall into the cliff below.
Gulu smiled happier.
At this time, he seemed to feel something suddenly. He turned his head and saw the fat hobbit Sam sitting up behind him looking at himself.
Gulu was shocked.
"What are you doing?"
"What are you doing there secretly?"
Sam asked immediately.
Gulu's brain turned at a high speed and realized that the fat hobbit didn't see what he had just done.
The heart immediately calmed down.
"Sneaking around?"
"No, I just want to see below."
"Smeagol has been taking you to the secret way that no one knows, but you just keep saying I'm sneaky."
"You're a good partner... Aren't you?"
"What a good partner..."
Gulu was unwilling to retort immediately, and even used a indignant tone.
Finally.
Sam seemed to realize his impoliteness and had to apologize: "enough, enough, shut up!"
"I'm wrong this time."
Sam said and immediately went to Frodo.
"Wake up, Frodo..."
"What's the matter?"
"It's time for us to start..."
"The next day?"
"Why is it still so dark... Forget, it's always so dark here..."
Frodo turned over and sat up.
Sam then picked up his carry on bag and began to look for food.
Soon, he saw the empty green leaves, but the elf bread lambas was missing.
"Bad..."
"What's the matter?"
"The elf bread is gone..."
"No, we only have that food!"
Asked Frodo urgently.
Sam took the green tree in his hand, and the color of the leaves changed rapidly. Soon, he seemed to think of something. He immediately turned his head and looked at the onlooker Gulu and said loudly, "it's him, it must be him!"
"The bread must have been eaten by him!"
"No, smeagol won't eat disgusting elf bread."
"It's you."
"Master, what do you think this is?"
Gulu immediately countered, pointing to the fine powder of the clothes on Sam's shoulder, and with the action of his hand, the fragments of the elf panel immediately fell to the ground.
Sam's face changed.
Gulu immediately became arrogant and said loudly, "it's him, it's him. I once saw his master sleeping and eating elf bread."
"The fat man is a liar. He is a hypocritical liar master..."
"Ah!"
Before Gulu's voice fell, he was slapped in the face by the angry Sam, and immediately screamed.
Then.
"Pa pa..."
With the sound of crisp applause.
And Sam's angry voice: "I'll kill you, a liar full of lies!"
"Hairless mouse!"
"Ugly monster!"
"I'll kill you, damn thing!"
Sam is stocky and strong.
He was trained by "teacher" Morgan for a long time with Frodo.
He suddenly made a move, Gulu couldn't react at all. He was immediately knocked over to the ground and ate more than a dozen powerful big mouths.
Gulu was stunned in an instant.
Frodo looked at Sam's madness and had to stop it immediately.
"Sam, stop!"
"Sam!"
Frodo reached out his hand to stop the angry Sam, but one of his feet was stepped firmly. The whole man immediately tilted to one side, and then fell heavily to the ground.
"Frodo..."
"Master Frodo..."
Seeing Frodo fall, Sam immediately let go of Gollum and rushed to Frodo.
It was only after Sam called Frodo for a while that he was sure that Frodo had fainted.
Now, standing aside, the corner of his mouth was beaten with blood.
Frodo, the hypocritical master, passed out.
His attempt to use the elf bread to drive away the fat hobbits failed, and he was beaten up.
What can I do?
Using elf bread was the best way he thought of to drive away the fat hobbits.
What should I do now?
"Damn rat."
Sam got up, kicked Gulu and shouted, "go and find some food for Lord Frodo!"
Frodo is unconscious. Don't be too happy when he bullies the monster.
"I'll go now!"
"I'll go now..."
He was kicked and Gulu didn't dare to say anything more. He had to look at Sam in fear.
Then run to the mountain road immediately.
When he turned around, Gollum's face turned back to Sam and immediately became extremely twisted and ferocious.
"Wait..."
"Wait..."
"You can kill them!"
"One! Sure! But!"
......
Helm deep valley.
Inside the city hall of horn castle.
"What?"
"Are you Morgan? They went to the" road of the dead "behind the black man temple?"
"How can you... Not stop them..."
Lohan Princess Iowen in a beige tight dress couldn't help shouting to her brother iomel after hearing Gandalf's words.
When Theoden, the king sitting on the throne above, heard the news, he couldn't help worrying and said, "Gandalf, why didn't you stop them?"
"That road... Is too dangerous."
For the Rohan royal family, the road of the dead with profound lessons is indeed too dangerous.
Moreover, there is also a real name. No human who goes in can come out again.
This time Morgan, Aragon and those who helped Rohan a lot have to take the road of death and no return.
This really worries Theoden.
"Aragon has his reasons..."
Facing king Theoden's words, Gandalf could only say, "not to mention Morgan, they must not be in great danger."
"Aragon Morgan, their destination has been determined."
"Let's talk about something more important."
"I've got the exact information, modo. I'm ready to fight Gondor. The army is moving towards Gondor."
"Your Majesty, Gondor needs your support."
As soon as Gandalf's voice changed, he immediately talked about his great event of coming to helm deep valley.
"Mordor attacked Gondor..."
Gandalf's voice fell, and Theoden was immediately silenced by the news.
For a while.
After slowing down, Theoden suddenly said faintly, "rescue Gondor?"
"Tell me... Why should I rescue Gondor who stood idly by at the critical moment of Rohan?"
The voice fell.
Gandalf was stunned. He didn't expect king Theoden to say so.
However, thinking of the difficult victory in the war, Rohan did not get Gondor's rescue at the most difficult time.
Gandalf had to speak patiently again: "Your Majesty..."
"Modosolen's strength is too strong."
"You know, this attack on modo is not only a large army of modo, but also a large army of Dongyi from the East..."
"Your Majesty, once Gondor cannot stop the army of moldo and is destroyed, then moldo's next target must be the nearby Rohan..."
"Sauron's purpose this time is to destroy the world and occupy the world..."
"No kingdom can be alone, no one can escape..."
"Only by uniting together can we defeat the Mordor army and Soren..."
"Your Majesty, don't hesitate..."
"Every day of delay, moldo's army will grow one day..."
"Gondor can't last that long..."
"Once Gondor is captured by modo, there will be no free land in the world..."
"The world will completely fall into darkness..."
"Rohan is also in it..."
Facing the wavering king Theoden.
Gandalf tried hard to persuade.
Finally, Theoden was shaken, raised his head, looked at Gandalf seriously and said, "as long as Gondor lights the beacon, Rohan should abide by the ancient covenant."
The voice fell.
Gandalf was relieved at last.
Lohan has a vast territory and the strength of Hussars is amazing.
Rohan, whose overall national strength is only weaker than Gondor, promised to send troops. It is much easier for some other small power lords to say.
King Theoden has promised.
Gandalf was ready to leave.
"Gondor doesn't know about it yet. I must go to Gondor as soon as possible to remind the ruling Prime Minister of Gondor, Denethor."
"As for our other allies, we need your majesty to contact..."
Gandalf was saying goodbye to Theoden and the crowd in front of the horn castle.
"I've heard some rumors..."
"Forget it, I wish you a smooth journey. I will contact you about allies..."
Theoden looked at Gandalf and nodded.
Soon after saying goodbye, Gandalf turned over and ran quickly to the deep valley of helm.
In front of the horn castle gate.
Merri and Pippin, two hobbits, looked at Gandalf's rapidly disappearing back and felt a little melancholy.
The most familiar expedition left.
Only the two of them remained with Rohan.
It makes them feel a little bored.
"Tell them to go down and get everyone ready to pack up. We'll start tomorrow?"
At this time, Theoden looked back and turned to Iowen beside him.
"Where are you going?"
Iowen, who was also immersed in the bad news of Morgan's road to the dead, blurted out.
"Where are you going?"
"Of course it will be Edoras."
"Saruman is dead and Eisinger is destroyed. We have to prepare for the next war..."
"Go..."
Theoden said, looking at eowen, whose face was obviously worried, said: "with their strength, they may not be able to pass that road. Don't worry."
Being seen through her mind, Iowen's white face immediately flew a trace of rosy clouds and immediately said, "I know."
Then he turned and walked quickly to the gate.
Theoden and eomer looked at Iowen and couldn't help sighing.
......
White Mountains.
The warm winter sun shines on me.
But standing in front of the entrance of the dark black mountain road on the road of the dead.
Morgan Alag Legolas and a group of dunedan's "strong grey brigade" Rangers felt a touch of cold from their hearts.
"Here it is."
"Let's go..."
Arag stood at the front of the line, looked at the dark narrow mountain entrance in front, and stepped in first.
Morgan followed, led the black horse radish and went in.
Although radish resisted, he came in anyway.
But when a group of dunedan rangers with horses behind them were ready to enter.
Dozens of strong horses quit immediately, whining and kicking
Why do you refuse to enter this long, cold mountain road.
Aragon looked back, looked carefully at the dark horses following Morgan, and looked at the struggling horses outside the path in the sun. He had to say, "take off their things and let them go."
Although each of these horses is a strong and good horse, they have been with these dunedan Rangers for a long time, and some have even been together for several years.
However, the patriarch Aragon said that even if these Rangers did not give up, they had to untie the reins of the saddle and let these horses leave.
Looking at the runaway wild horses whistling madly down the mountain one after another.
Morgan couldn't help looking at the black horse radish beside him.
Although radish is very brave and gives face, he stepped into the mountain path of the dead with Morgan.
But Morgan can feel the fear in radish's heart, the fear of this road.
"Forget it, I know you're afraid..."
Morgan said and began to untie the reins and saddle on the radish.
Radish may be able to hold on here at shandaokou, but not necessarily after going deep into it.
Although he didn't get along for a long time, Morgan could feel the intelligence of radish and was a good partner. He couldn't bear to die here.
"Go, go to Edoras, your hometown..."
"We'll see each other again..."
Morgan said, led the radish out of the mountain road, then touched the radish, opened his face and said.
The black horse radish looked at Morgan as if he understood Morgan's words. Then he followed the horses and rushed down the mountain.
"Did you say it would go to Edoras?"
Jinli looked at the dark horse radish rapidly away at the foot of the mountain and asked Legolas nearby.
"I don't know. Although it's not far from Edoras."
"But king Theoden, they are still in the deep valley of helm."
Legolas shook his head. It was just a horse. He didn't think much of it.
"No, King Theoden will return to Edoras soon. Maybe he's already on his way."
"As for the radish, it will certainly come back to me."
Morgan came over, looked at the two partners and said.
Listening to Morgan's discretion, Jinli turned his eyes and immediately said, "well, do we three want to make a bet?"
"It's time to go, Jinli..."
"Bet you can continue on the road."
Then Aragon's voice came.
Morgan looked at Jinli and said with a smile, "of course. This time I'm in charge."
Then he followed Aragorn and stepped into the dark and gloomy road of the dead.
