Dongfang Jade's palm drew a graceful arc, and immediately, a sharp arrow was firmly grasped in his palm. The movement was swift, but it also carried a strange sense of beauty.
"Good!" Seeing that Dongfang Jade could even catch the arrows he shot, Legolas's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but praise.
Although he admired in his mouth, his movements were not slow. He quickly opened the bow string and shot three arrows in succession. However, these three arrows were easily caught by Dongfang Yu in his hand again, as if Dongfang Yu's
The palm of his hand was already waiting for Legolas to shoot the arrow into his palm.
Lingbo took a slight step, Dongfang Jade tapped his toes, his movements were elegant, and he almost flashed before arriving in front of Legolas.
His eyes shrank, and Legolas retreated reflexively. At the same time, he turned his fingers, and a dagger appeared between him. Like a poisonous snake spitting a message, it pierced Dongfang Yu's chest from a tricky angle.
Legolas's reaction was not unpleasant, but Dongfang Yu was faster. He raised his palm and clapped it with a strong palm force, knocking Legolas's dagger aside.
Almost at the same time, a brilliant sword light flashed, and Legolas felt a chill in his throat, but it was Dongfang Jade's long sword, and the tip of the sword was directly touching Legolas' throat.
Legolas's eyes narrowed almost like needle points. He couldn't believe that he could lose so easily in a single fight. He felt a little discouraged, but then he felt happy again. There was such a person who kept fighting against him.
My fighting skills will definitely improve.
With a beautiful sword flower on his arm, Oriental Jade returned the sword to its sheath, his movements were elegant and noble. Legolas was also convinced that he had lost. His skills were inferior to others, and there was no need to make excuses.
Bang bang bang...
There was a burst of applause, and Thranduil, the king of the jungle, stood up from his throne, stared at Dongfang Jade in surprise, and said: "Mr. Dongfang is the most athletic human being I have ever seen. No wonder Legolas is so interested in him."
You praise me very much. This is the first time I have seen this kind of skill in a human being in my thousands of years of life."
Dongfang Yu smiled at the corner of her mouth and returned the courtesy gracefully. She said nothing, but her heart became lively. Tonight, Legolas suddenly said that his father wanted to see him, and then he showed off in front of Thranduil.
Goras Jiti went out to practice a few moves. Dongfang Yu spent a lot of time and finally defeated the elf prince.
Seeing Thranduil's appearance, he also admired himself very much. This made Dongfang Yu's mind active. As long as he could talk, he had to think of some way to rescue Thorin and the others. Time was running out, and more
What's more, I had promised Gandalf that day to send these dwarves to the Lonely Mountain on time.
"Mr. Dongfang, I wonder if I can stay in the Jungle Kingdom. I hope Legolas can learn from you." Thranduil came to Dongfang Jade with great grace. As soon as he opened his mouth, you could see that he was interested in it.
Dongfang Yu took him seriously and asked him to teach his son.
Legolas was also slightly shocked. In his current situation, he still needed someone to teach him? However, Dongfang Jade's strength was enough, so Legolas did not refuse.
"Thank you for your kindness, sir, but for the time being, I have important things to do." After pondering for a moment, Dongfang Yu still declined Thranduil's proposal.
"The important thing? Is it to accompany those arrogant and rude dwarves to Lonely Mountain? It's a pity that they have to stay in my prison for the rest of their lives. With your magnanimity and cultivation, why bother with these arrogant and rude dwarves? You
Should our companions be elves like us?" Thranduil did not hide his anger towards the dwarves in his expression, and his voice was a little cold.
"The eagle soars in the sky, while the fish and shrimp dive under the water. Such is their nature. Why should the eagle despise the insignificance of the fish and shrimp?" Dongfang Yu also said calmly with an elegant smile on his face. Judging from his demeanor, he looked more like an elf than an elf.
Like humans.
Dongfang Jade's words made Thranduil slightly stunned. The smile on his face softened a lot, and there was a hint of thinking between his eyebrows. Even Legolas seemed to have realized something.
"Elves are elegant and noble, just like eagles soaring in the sky. Dwarves are like fish and shrimps. Such is their nature. Why does the eagle force the fish and shrimps to be with him? Are fish and shrimps still fish and shrimps when they leave the water? Dwarfs are greedy and rude by nature.
, rude, but also true-hearted, and not necessarily unworthy of friendship, what do you think, sir?" Dongfang Jade, speaking according to the trend.
Dongfang Jade's words, even though Thranduil has lived for so long, this is the first time he has heard them. The comparison between the eagle and the fish and shrimp is also very appropriate. The elves have been watching for a long time, so they naturally know more. The dwarves
Are they naturally rude, so they must be forced to be elegant and wordy?
Thinking about dwarves walking, talking, thinking, and fighting like elves, for some reason Thranduil felt as if he had some goosebumps on his body. That scene was really unimaginable.
"What you said makes some sense. Maybe my perspective of thinking about the problem is not detached enough." Thranduil rarely spoke up and agreed with Dongfang Yu's point of view.
These words made Legolas look at Dongfang Jade in surprise. Can he make his father admit his mistake in words? Legolas, who also knew his father's character well, knew how incredible this was.
"Why do you want to imprison Thorin and the others?" Seeing Thranduil's relaxed tone, Dongfang Yu felt happy and asked.
"..." Thranduil didn't say anything. Could it be that he just confessed to vent his anger?
Thranduil's reaction made Dongfang Yu understand. Based on the original work, he thought for a moment and said, "Sir, you also know the temper of the dwarves. It is difficult to talk to them calmly, not to mention Thorin's character?
If there is anything I can do to help, please tell me."
I have to say that Dongfang Jade's words made Thranduy's heart move. After a little investigation, he knew the importance of Dongfang Jade in the hearts of the dwarves. Relatively speaking, if he wanted to get the white gem back, Dongfang Jade
Maybe there really is a breakthrough in Jade?
"The treasures in the Lonely Mountain are indeed amazing, but I am not a dwarf. I don't have much obsession with those golden treasures. What I want is just a white gem, a gem that looks like white moonlight." Thrando
Yi was silent for a moment and then spoke.
Another white gem? Hearing the words of the white gem again, Legolas was a little curious. Why was his father so obsessed with a white gem? It was just now, not the time to ask questions, so Legolas just endured it.
No question came out of my mouth.
"White gem? How much is it worth to adults?" Dongfang Yu asked in return.
"It's hard to estimate," Thranduil replied without thinking.
"How much is the value of the entire Gushan treasure?" Dongfang Yu asked again.
"Tip of the iceberg", Thranduil answered quickly.
"Sir, please see, this is the contract I made with Thorin. As long as I can regain the rule of Lonely Mountain, I will get one-quarter of Lonely Mountain's treasure. You said, if I ask for the white gem, Thorin will
Won't you give it to me?" Dongfang Jade took out a contract and handed it to Thranduil to see.
The next thing will naturally fall into place. After all, Thranduil has no deep hatred for these dwarves. Instead of imprisoning them for a lifetime and letting them die in the dark forest, it is better to let them out. Maybe if they succeed, then he can also get it.
Have you returned to White Gemstone?
Therefore, Dongfang Jade and Thranduil soon hit it off. Thranduil expressed his willingness to release Thorin and others, and even to a certain extent, the jungle kingdom would help them retake Lonely Mountain, but the conditions must be met.
Give him the white gem. This contract is not with Thorin, but with Dongfang Jade.
Originally, Thranduil wanted to order the release of the dwarves, but Dongfang Yu stopped him. He said that once he gave the order, Thorin would definitely be aware of the agreement between the two, and perhaps with his arrogance, he would
On the contrary, they refused to give the white gem to themselves. Why not act out a scene of secretly rescuing them?
Thranduil thought about it and felt that what Dongfang Yu said was reasonable, so he followed his words and made the elves in the prison pretend to be unconscious, and the elves in the wine cellar were also drunk.
Dongfang Yu took the key, pretended to be a thief, and secretly released Thorin and the others. Then, as in the original work, he rolled a wine barrel into the underground river and sent them out without anyone noticing.
"Tauriel..." Thranduil, who was hiding in the darkness in the wine cellar, spoke as he watched Dongfang Yu leave with the dwarves in the end.
"Your Majesty," Tauriel, as the guard captain of the Mirkwood elves, responded.
"Follow them, but don't attract attention. Pay attention to their every move and report to me accurately." Thranduil ordered.
"Okay", Tauriel nodded heavily and left quickly.
"Legolas, prepare your army for war. As far as I know, there is a group of orcs following them. Once news comes that Tauriel is in danger, we will take action to clear the way for them." In order to get back the white gem,
Thranduil didn't mind helping these dwarves, although he still didn't like them.
"Okay", Legolas nodded solemnly and prepared for war.
For a time, the entire elves in the Dark Forest became active and prepared for the coming war.
