The Lord of the Rings The Hobbit: The First Dance

This is a quaint meeting room. The tone of the whole meeting room is brown and dark. A large wooden desk is placed at the end of the room. The logo of the Great Green Forest is embossed on the wall at the end, and the green velvet curtains hang quietly. Moonlight poured in through the windows.Now, standing behind the desk in the meeting hall is an elderly elf. He has long silver hair, a pair of blue sharp eyes, and tough facial features. He is tall and straight. the current king.Below him, there were two rows of ministers lined up one by one, and the expressions on the faces of the ministers were solemn.Among them stood a young woman, her face was reddish perhaps because of nervousness, her mouth was tightly pursed.

"So, the prince and his party set off for the northern forest yesterday morning?" Orofel, the king of the Great Green Forest, asked in a majestic voice.

The woman standing beneath the king is undoubtedly our heroine, Svanil. "Yes." Svanil replied.

Hearing Svanil's answer, the atmosphere in the room instantly became tense.

"Any other news?"

Svanil recalled slightly, "I don't know."

"Is there any news about Beiting?" There are guard posts in the northern forest called "Beiting".

A capable elf stood up and replied, "I haven't received it yet."

The Elf King tightened his hand, "Continue to search!"

"Yes."

From yesterday to today, the prince of the Great Green Forest and the sons of the four important ministers disappeared collectively. Now, their disappearance has finally attracted attention.

Orofel waved his hand, "Go down."

The following ministers retreated silently.Svanil looked up at the king above him, and also retreated silently.When he came to the door, Orofel stopped Svanil.

"Miss Coffer."

"Yes." Svanil hurriedly lowered his body and saluted.

The king came down slowly from above, with steady steps.

"Thank you for the information."

Hearing this, Svanil lowered his head, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty the King. I just thought they were just playing..."

"I understand." Orofel sighed.The night was as cool as water, the mottled tree shadows outside were swaying, the wind blew in from the window, and the green curtains were raised like sails, blowing along with his long silver-white hair.

There was no words between the two of them for a while.

A team of clanging horseshoes cut through the silent forest at night like sharp swords.A group of eight elves, in blue and gray robes, rode galloping horses at night, all galloping close to the horse's back!

hiss--

The leading war horse suddenly raised its two front hooves into the air, and stopped in place after a few step adjustments.The other elves following behind also hastily reined in their horses.Not far in front of them, I saw a gray-and-white horse, and immediately sat a female elf in blue and gray robes. The female elf held the rein in her hand and stood there quietly, obviously waiting for some time.

"Miss Cofell." Alden, the leader, drove forward.

"Mr. Alden." Sivanyil looked at the strong red-haired elf in front of him. He was the vice-captain of the Northern Forest. "My brother has my tracking ribbon on him, so I thought it might be helpful for the search to go with you on this trip."

Alden took a look at Svanil, with a long sword on his waist, a dagger stuck by his boots, and maybe a pair of double knives under his gray cloak, obviously well prepared.Although she was still a minor elf, and she was still a female elf, he still made a decision immediately: "Miss Cofell, you can follow us to the northern forest, but before that, you must promise me Thing: Don't act rashly unless you are under our protection!"

"Okay, I promise you!"

The eight cavalry team turned into nine cavalry, galloping towards the north.

dusk.

The large green forest in the north has thick shadows, covering the sky and the sun, and the sun is concentrating its last rays of light.After a whole night and a day of raiding, a group of nine people finally approached the northern border of the Great Green Forest, the most dangerous place in the entire Green Forest.

Just after nightfall, Alden announced a rest.A group of people found an open space to light a fire for dinner, and then they all fell asleep except those who were on guard at night.After nearly twenty hours of continuous driving, Svanil was also exhausted by this time, and she fell asleep in a daze as soon as she lay down.

At this time, at the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, the night breeze brought a slight coolness.Although Svanil fell asleep physically, his dream was not peaceful, and he had some clues in his mind vaguely while tossing and turning.She sat up, the crackling fire was burning, and the elves on night duty went nowhere.She got up quietly, and the voice in her heart told her that it was not far away...not far away...

This forest is not much different from other places controlled by dark forces.The leaves of the beech trees were sparse, and the twisted and bare branches looked terrible in the night.Years of dead leaves are spread on the ground, and there is a rustling sound when you step on it.The moonlight shone on the blond hair of the woman in blue and gray robe, and the platinum band on her hair shone with light.It should be around here, Svanil thought.Slowly, Svanil fixed his gaze on an old beech.I walked around the old tree and looked up again. This tree is no different from other trees!Svanil poked the scar on the tree with his hand, but there was no response.After some research, Sivanyir felt that it was better to forget it, and she shouldn't leave the team for too long.Just when she turned around and lifted her foot to leave, the ground suddenly sank, and before she could exclaim in surprise, she fell into pitch blackness!

The forest is still silent, and the sunken place is like a door panel, which is closed after eating something.

Bang!

Svanil's butt fell heavily on the hard rock, and he couldn't help gasping, it hurts so much!But before Svanil could adjust her state, she heard the sound of "da da da - da da da" coming from the underground not far away, and judging from the frequency of the sound, there must be a lot of people coming!

It appears that she disturbed the owner of the burrow.

Svanil panicked for a moment.She was not raised as a warrior like her younger brother since she was a child. Archery, horseback riding, and swordsmanship were elective courses for her! The sound of "da da da-da da da" is getting louder and closer, Sifanyier's mind is so anxious to fly, to negotiate, hide or shout for help? !The eyesight of the elves is still useful in the dark, and the sharp-eyed Svanil has even seen the dust rising from the corner of the cave before the large group of people approached——

At this critical moment, a hand suddenly sprang out from the darkness, covered Svanyir's mouth, grabbed her clothes and led her up and down into a corner blocked by a stone wall.The two hid tightly against the stone wall.Da da da footsteps then turned the corner and came in!

In the darkness, Svanil didn't dare to poke her head out to see what was going on outside, and she could feel her head against the chest of the man behind him, and he was pressing her to keep her from making any noise.Then, she smelled a disgusting stench, and walked towards them with da da steps.She couldn't help but hold her breath.

It seemed as if a century had passed before the stench gradually faded, and Da Da's footsteps also walked away.The hand covering Svanil's mouth and nose did not relax, it was still tight.Svanil felt that if he didn't breathe some air, he would definitely die here!So she began to pick the hand on her mouth——

"Wait a minute." A calm voice sounded softly in my ear.

Svanil's hands stopped moving when he heard the sound, and his pointed ears couldn't help moving.Her mouth was still covered, so she had no choice but to look up at the people behind her: the cloak completely covered her hair, her blue eyes stared vigilantly outside, and the straight bridge of her nose in the shadows had graceful and resolute lines. A face, this unforgettable face... Svanil retracted her upturned head, her face began to turn red little by little, thump thump thump thump thump, she felt her heart beating so loudly now It will definitely shake those enemies back!Svanil lived to be 950 years old, and for the first time in her life, she was hugged by a man other than her father and younger brother, and the man who hugged him was Thranduil, whom she admired the most!Vera, why didn't she faint!

"Miss Coffel, Miss Coffel..." After calling a few times, Svanil finally came to his senses.At this time Thranduil had let go of Svanil, and was looking at her seriously.

"His Royal Highness." Svanil responded.

"Why are you here?"

At this time, Svanil tried to regain his normalcy, and replied: "The king found you missing and worried about your safety, so he sent several small teams to look for you. I came with Mr. Alden's team."

Seeing Thranduil pondering for a while, Svanil said, "How many of you are there?"

"Including me, there are nine people."

"Your Highness, besides you, where are the others?" Svanil asked.

Thranduil glanced at Svanil, "Follow me." After speaking, he pulled Svanil up and down in the cave, and went around several caves.Finally, it stopped in front of a dark and deep hole.

"They were all wounded by the giant spider's venom and entangled in the spider's silk." Thranduil motioned for Van Il to look.

Svanil carefully stretched out his head and looked into the cave: the white spider silk was messy and filled the entire black cave, and there were 5 or [-] giant spiders around, and in the middle of the cave, there were [-] "human figures" wrapped in white silk. Dough" hangs there.

"They may be eaten at any time, I can't easily leave and report. And..."

"And what?"

"Before you came, I hadn't found the exit of this cave."

Svanil turned back to look at Thranduil.Now time is urgent, of course it is not to ask questions such as "then how did you get in in the first place", this kind of question has enough time to ask after you go out.

"What now?"

The thin clouds drift away slowly, and the white moon hangs in the sky.With the help of Thranduil, Svanil poked a scab on the root of the tree and opened the hole of the burrow, which was the place where Svanil fell just now.Thranduil used his hands as the base, and Svanil stepped on it. The former lifted the latter slightly and jumped to the ground.The forest was extremely quiet at this time, only the rustling noises of unknown small insects crawling among the grass.The white moonlight poured onto Thranduil's body from the hole, illuminating his face in the darkness.

Svanil was standing on the ground. Her hair was very long, reaching her ankles. At this moment, the night wind picked up and blew her gray robe, lifting her long hair like a golden waterfall under the robe.Her pale blue eyes met Thranduil's blue.

"I'll be right back."

"Ah."

……

Soon, the neighing of war horses resounded in the northern forest in Yeyue!After a night of fighting, when the sun rose from the east, Svail poked the old beech scab to welcome her brother and other companions back from the burrow: Thranduil led out, Alden broke behind, and in the middle The elves carried out the five unconscious elves in turn.

The trees stretched out their branches and leaves, as if to welcome the return of their soldiers; the birds woke up from their nests and began to fly and sing among the branches; the gray rabbit moved its long ears and began to forage for food in the grass in the distance.Looking at the elves who came out, Svanil seemed to have tears in his eyes, and he lowered his head.When she raised her head again, Thranduil saw a beautiful elf standing proudly in the morning light: long golden hair blowing like sea waves, blue eyes shining like jewels, long clothes fluttering in the wind , smiling like the first freesia flower in full bloom in spring!
