He ​​is humiliating me!

Thorin looked at the face with a hateful smile in front of him and couldn't help but hold the weapon.

"The dignity of the dwarves will never tolerate being humiliated! It must be repaid with blood!"

Thorin's heart was roaring, but his body did not move.

The other party has saved his own life and the lives of his own people, and he has promised to respect the other party... Moreover, if even Gandalf said this, then the other party may really know how to deal with the evil dragon.

"For the Lonely Mountain! For the Durin clan!"

Thorin comforted himself in this way, so he turned his head away from looking at the hateful traveler, pretending not to hear what he said.

"Oh, you look very angry." The annoying voice still reached my ears: "Why? Did I make any excessive demands?"

"Traveler -" Gandalf interrupted: "You don't have to do this..."

"Wizard, I don't understand."

"In my opinion, when asking for help from others, you must have the attitude of asking for help from others."

A traveler eloquently said: "If you are condescending, it is not called a request, it is called an order."

"Thorin Oakenshield, what have I done to deserve you to disrespect me so much?"

"I know that you are the future Lord of the Mountain, and you will become the king of all the Durin Dwarves. You have always been respected and loved by the Durin Dwarves, so you would rather lead your tribe to do something reckless and wrong.

I would rather watch the dwarves of Durin continue to be displaced and let the evil dragon continue to occupy the wealth that the dwarves of Durin have accumulated for thousands of years than let go of your miserable arrogance and stubbornness."

"I——" Thorin Oakenshield wanted to retort, but nothing came out.

"I'm just a traveler. It's not my responsibility to deal with the dragon, isn't it?" Tang Sen said.

Thorin's face turned white and blue, and finally he closed his eyes and almost squeezed out the words through his teeth: "If I ask you, will you help us?"

"I will consider it." Tang Sen nodded with satisfaction and said, "But you need to be clear about one thing, Thorin Oakenshield."

"This is not cooperation. I can't get any benefits from Lonely Mountain and the dwarves. So, if I want to help you deal with the dragon, then I will decide what to do in the process."

"You want the dwarves to obey your orders?" Thorin suddenly opened his eyes.

"Order?" Tang Sen chuckled: "I prefer to call it a suggestion. I don't need the loyalty of the dwarves. You can refuse my help at any time, but before you decide to leave, I don't want any

This reckless behavior ruined my plan to deal with the dragon."

Thorin was silent for a long time. In fact, he had no choice.

It wasn't until the team crossed another hill that Thorin finally said: "If your suggestion makes sense...at least you have to tell me what your plan is."

The corners of Tang Sen's mouth curled up involuntarily.

Please remember this day forever, Thorin Oakenshield, maybe you haven't realized it yet, you can only bow your head once and countless times.

There will always be only one voice in a team. Future Dwarf King, you have... can't go back.

"It seems that we have reached a consensus. In this case, there is no need to act separately."

"We must first find the Orc's lair in this section of the Misty Mountains."

Tang Sen pinched the horse's belly slightly and came to the front of the team.

"This is part of the plan."

"I remember you said this before." Gandalf followed and whispered: "Are you going to find...it? Is it in the Orc's lair?"

"This is impossible. If the Orcs discover it, then Sauron will definitely know that even though Sauron has disappeared for many years, all the Orcs are still under Sauron's control."

"If you don't believe me, why are you following me?" Tang Sen asked.

Gandalf's hand holding the staff tightened. He was very empathic with Thorin at the moment. This mysterious traveler seemed to be helping everyone, but both his behavior and tone... were very annoying!

So he skipped the topic and said:

"The Misty Mountains are full of Oaks. No one knows how many Oak nests are hidden in the mountains. No one even knows how to enter those nests... Most people who get lost and enter will not be able to get out. The Orcs inside

At least tens of thousands of grams."

"As a wizard, don't you know?"

"What misunderstanding do you have about wizards?" Gandalf said dissatisfied: "Don't travelers always claim to know everything?"

Tang Sen smiled slightly and said: "I am honored to be praised so much by the wizard."

"I'm not complimenting you!"

"Anyway, we have to find a guide to Oak's lair first." Tangsend said.

"No guide would want to work in the Misty Mountains," Gandalf said angrily.

"I'm not talking about people."

......

The Misty Mountains are very huge, and most of the peaks are even inserted into the clouds. Being among them, it is easy for people to lose their way, and even get completely lost in the mountains, becoming the food of Orcs or trolls.
p>

Of course, there are not roads without roads in the mountains.

Since ancient times, there have been many people who have ventured across the Misty Mountains, including desperate caravans and those with missions. The more people walked, the more dangerous but at least a path that could cross the mountains was discovered.<

/p>

The team has been walking along the path for several days. Fortunately or unfortunately, they did not encounter any dangers along the way. Going further, they will have to go deep into the mountains. The narrow roads dug out of the rock walls are difficult to reach.

Speaking of horses, even people can only pass by sideways to avoid falling into the cliff.

Tang Sen was not sure if this was the dangerous path in the original work, where Thorin and his adventure team met stone men and had a rough time, almost annihilating them.

Well... Stone giants as big as mountains, Tang Sen doesn't want to meet them at all.

So, when passing by a slightly flatter foothills, Tang Sen said: "Let's camp here tonight."

Thorin said: "It's still a long time before the sun goes down. We can go at least ten miles further. We don't have enough time..."

"Of course you can move on." Tang Sen said, "But I will stay here."

"..." Thorin gritted his teeth.

He has almost lost count of how many times he has had this experience in the past few days. To be honest, he is even a little used to this damn traveler's style of doing things.

Although it was just a trivial matter, and the other party really just made suggestions, I had no other choice but to obey every time!

So much so, when Thorin looked back, he found that the dwarves were not interested in the conversation here. Even before he questioned it, they had already begun to skillfully set up camp and make a fire.
