In the territory of the Rohanate Kingdom, the terrain here is mainly a plain with grasslands and strange stones, which is very suitable for cavalry to gallop across. This is also the main grazing area for the herders of Rohan. Of course, in normal times, in addition to grazing cattle, horses, sheep and other pastoral livestock, the herders also plant a small amount of grain.

This is still a border area, and there is no fertile land with abundant grass and rivers in the Rohanate Kingdom. It shows that it looks uninhabited thousands of miles away and there is no gathering place.

If in the past few other forces except the Rohan Kingdom dared to come here to play wildly, after all, the Rohan border cavalry would often patrol this area in the past. If those evil forces exist or other forces, whether they are orcs or others, as long as they do not want to face a group of terrible knights who come and go like the wind on the grassland, they will subconsciously stay away from the territory of these Rohan people.

But today, there is a large group of strong orcs, estimated to be at least one hundred people, marching blatantly in broad daylight. These strong orcs, all with steel helmets and armor, holding hideous iron blades or steel hard bows, are lined up in several sparse formations, and seem to be running tirelessly! And on the backs of the two strong orcs, there seem to be two small hobbit prisoners tied to them?!

Now they have begun to penetrate deep into the border of Rohan, but they have not encountered the Rohan cavalry who have patrolled the border in the past. They don’t know what the situation is in the Rohan Kingdom now?

Suddenly, a leading orc who was leading the team to run suddenly stopped and clenched his fists to signal his subordinates behind him, ordering them to stop behind him and start guarding them around.

On its face, which was patting a white handprint, its nose kept shaking, as if it smelled an unusual smell around it...

"You guys are too slow, my master can't wait!"

Then, a group of half-headed orcs, who were half-headed shorter than the strong orcs, came out from behind a pile of rocks. The leader of the orcs with animal fangs on his neck were roaring impatiently at the strong orc leader.

"He is coming to those dwarves from Charles now!"

Orcs may have facial blindness and can only distinguish between elves and humans, but cannot distinguish between human populations! Therefore, they collectively call dwarves shorter than those taller humans, regardless of whether they are real dwarves or hobbits from Charles.

For example, humans cannot distinguish between the same difference between the Moto orcs, the Misty Mountain orcs, the Goblins and the Gundabha orcs. Although they can all be collectively called the orcs, they are not actually the same population.

"Hmph! I don't remember that I did things for you half-orc maggots!"

The leader of the strong orc looked at the orcs who blocked his way with disdain, and then snorted coldly.

It is obvious that the owner of this powerful orc and the owner of this group of half-orcs are not the same person, and they are not under the jurisdiction of the Demon Lord Sauron!

From this we can see that Saruman seemed to be on guard against the Demon Lord Sauron. He obviously knew the hard truth about the power of the gun. Therefore, the commandership of the strong orcs was held tightly in his own hands with magic, and let these strong orcs listen to only Saruman.

"Ao..."

When the orc leader heard that this powerful orc, a bastard who had just crossed, dared to speak to him like this, the orc leader was immediately annoyed!

Then, while its face became more ferocious, there were waves of angry whimpering sounds in its throat, and it slightly tightened the arc-shaped bone blade in its hand, and it was a tendency to pounce on it and start to do it if it was disagreement.

"Mr. Saruman will get his captives, and we will offer them in person!"

Once again, he looked up and down at the orcs who were not as tall as themselves and not as strong as themselves, and after a glance at them, the strong orc sneered and turned his eyes away. It did not think that the other party had the courage to fight with him.

They are powerful orcs, only loyal to the most powerful white-robed wizard Saruman!

Instead of the master of the orcs who were talking about the orcs! So, it would never hand over the captives that it had finally caught by others to these orcs!

"Gaha..."

After provocatively let out two roars of unknown significance, the orc thought in his heart, compared the physiques and numbers of both sides, he still did not dare to attack this powerful orc without authorization.

In its opinion, these strong orcs are now large in number and large in size, and Li Qiye is even bigger. If they really fight, they will definitely be the orcs on their side who suffer? Therefore, they can only admit defeat for the time being.

“Merry…”

"Melly? Wake up!"

At this time when the strong orcs stopped for a brief trimming, Pi Ping, who was tied to the back of a strong orc, finally had time to care about the situation of her partner Meli on the other side.

He saw that Merry was moaning weakly on the back of the strong orc, and blood was still flowing from his forehead. He seemed to be in a bad state?

"My friend is sick and he needs some water! Please give him some water..."

Seeing that Meli was still half open and moaning there, Piping finally couldn't stand it anymore, so he quickly begged to one of the strong orcs who seemed to be drinking water.

"Oh? I'm sick, are you?"

At this time, the strong orc leader who had already negotiated with the group of orcs in front finally came over. When he heard Pi Ping's words, he pointed at Meli in Pi Ping's mouth with a grim smile and ordered:

"Come on! Give him some medicine, boys!"

Then, another strong orc came over with a water bag. After grabbing the Hobbit Meli's head with one hand, he opened the other's mouth, and directly put the water bag in the water bag inward and poured the "water" inside into Meli's mouth.

"Look! He looks much better now, right?"

At this time, Pi Ping was surprised to find that the things in the other party's water bag were actually not water, nor were they medicine! But some tissue fluid with yellow and red blood that precipitated after a long period of time?!

What he didn't know was whether these liquids belonged to ordinary animals or humans?

"Ha ha!"

"Hahaha!"

When he saw the blood-filled Hobbit finally began to cough loudly, and it seemed much better than before, the large group of powerful orcs followed their leaders and burst into laughter.

"Stop! Let him go!"

Piping was anxious. If this liquid that was obviously not a good thing was poured into it, even if Merry had nothing to do, it would have become a big problem, right?

"Hahaha! Why? Can't drink it anymore?!"

After filling half a bag of blood, the strong orc barely stopped and let the Hobbit Meli cough and moan in a low voice.

"Stop! Please stop touching him!"

Piping finally understood that they were the prisoners of these cruel orcs, and it was already amazing that these powerful orcs did not eat them on the spot. They really couldn't ask too much.

"Do you want to drink a little too? Otherwise, just shut your mouth obediently!"

After warning the verbal Hobbit with his fingers and pointed at the mouthful Hobbit with a glove made of unknown leather, the strong orc leader turned around angrily and continued to walk towards the front of the team.

These two hobbits ran comfortably on their backs for three days and three nights, but they were not satisfied? If their owner Saruman had not explained that they needed these hobbits to live, they would have eaten them and returned to work with their heads!

"What's going on? Did you smell something?"

As soon as he left the front of the team, the leader asked a strong orc with a particularly developed nose.

At this time, this shows the cleverness of the white-robed wizard Saruman's biological transformation project: While he used magic to transform ordinary strong orcs, he did not forget to specially transform a small group of strong orcs with particularly sensitive noses, allowing them to act as humanoid self-propelled radars or scouts in his army?

"It's human!"

This powerful orc with a huge nostril just smelled the smell of humans...

It is obvious that now there seem to be humans discovering them and getting closer? Because it smelled the strange smell of sweat mixed from the other person's body from the air.

"Maybe it was the group of people before, they followed..."

"Go quickly! Go ahead at full speed!!"

The strong orc leader called out anger, then waved his hand and let his subordinates start to set out again and run.

Although it didn't know whether it was Rohan's cavalry, or the small group of powerful humans, dwarves and elves who were ambushed by them in the woods before? But no matter what, it would be impossible to speed up its marching speed, leave here early, and escape back to their nest Aisinger!

...

Ranger Aragon was lying on a rock and listening carefully. Rangers like them who have been wandering in the wild all year round have more or less learned the ability to track prey and search for enemies.

Especially Aragon, an old ranger who lived in his eighties, has already mastered the ability to listen to sound and distinguish positions!

He had just heard the dull footsteps of the strong orc from the slight vibration from the ground from the rock formation! The other party had already taken action again, and was still speeding up?

It seems that the other party is probably because they have discovered the three people who have been following them all the time?

"Hurry up!"

Then, Aragon stood up from the rock and urged Leglas and Jinli behind him.

Since the strong orcs have begun to speed up, the three of them must also speed up at the same time. Otherwise, every time they delay a while, the two hobbits of Meli and Piping would be more dangerous!

"Hurry up, Jinli!"

With his bow and arrow on his back, the elf prince Leglas, who even remembers to be handsome, stood on a rock. After talking to the dwarf Jin Li behind him without blushing, he jumped and quickly caught up with the ranger Aragon who led the way forward.

It is too easy for the elves who have already been fully equipped with agility! Moreover, he even has time to enjoy the elves' delicacy - Elf Cookies Lambas while he is rushing to the road?

Therefore, Legras is still physically strong now. Apart from being unable to sleep for a long time and being a little mentally exhausted, he does not feel much discomfort! If this was not a plain, but amid the dense forest, perhaps his own speed might be faster?

"Huh! Huh!"

He gasped with big mouthfuls, Jin Li held his long-handled battle axe with both hands, so tired that his eyes were almost turning white...

"I ran for three days and three nights..."

"I didn't eat anything... I didn't rest... I had no trace of it except stones!"

After a little breath and a little complaining habitually, Jin Li sighed, gritted his teeth, took his short steps again, and began to rush to catch up with the two long-legged guys in front of him.

Now he is at least tens of yards behind. If he doesn't catch up quickly, he will probably be completely left behind and fall behind.

“…”

After the three of them were chasing for a long time, they arrived at the small canyon where the strong orcs and half orcs would have been together.

Then, Aragon, who was good at tracking, soon found something belonging to the two hobbits in the footprints on the ground: a pin with a stomped elf cloak?

"The Lorien pin will never fall for no reason..."

Looking at the elf-shaped pin that had been deformed in his palm, Aragon knew that they were not far from the enemy now, and seeing the freshness of these footprints, at most, it was only half a day away?

Moreover, more importantly, the three of them did not pursue the wrong direction now. The group of powerful orcs who had kidnapped two Hobbits, and they were right in front of them!

"Maybe they are still alive?"

Leglas came over to take a look at the pin and also made a guess.

Since pins, such as Hobbits, only appeared here, not before, it really means that those strong orcs should not have killed Piping and Meli, otherwise, their belongings or clothing should have been scattered everywhere!
