Chapter 154 Secret!

The night grew darker.

The crescent moon in the sky hides in the dark clouds for some unknown reason.

However, the central square of the City Hall of Hegu Town became more and more lively.

Piles of bonfires are flourishing.

The entire square illuminated is bright and bright.

The fresh soup in the cooking pot boils and rolls.

The smell of roasted meat on the grill.

Plus plenty of booze.

Let the surviving residents of Changhu Town who had their homes destroyed by the dragon not long ago and then encountered the terrifying orc invasion war really relax once.

We must know that the entertainment methods in this world are scarce.

Not to mention the residents at the bottom.

There are too few opportunities to eat barbecue in such a big way and drink wine.

Especially after all kinds of disasters and twists and turns.

Therefore, it is easy to see many women bursting into tears while eating and drinking in the square.

Crying choked up, sad.
But no one was much comforted, because everyone around was like this.

After the disaster of the evil dragon in Changhu Town, and the disaster of the half-orc invasion and war, the residents who survived almost died in every home.

As few as one or two, as many as the whole family dies.

No one is better off than the other.

As for being able to survive the whole family, there are also, but that is too little.

Bud, who was elected as the interim mayor, also said that the disaster and suffering have passed.

Then, you will be able to live a peaceful life as before.

A group of residents still trust and love Bard very much.

It rained and it was fine.

At this time, crying may not be all because of sadness.

It could also be venting.

Because only to forget the pain as soon as possible.

In order to usher in a better tomorrow.

When the feast was going on in the town hall square, it was noisy and full of voices.

On the streets of River Valley Town.

A dwarf chariot was driving at a constant speed on the main street of Hegu Town, heading towards the depths of Hegu Town.

"Look, there are only a small number of these humans in Hegu Town patrolling, and no one else can see them. The feast must have begun."

"I think so too, do you hear, it's so noisy in front"

"Bahrain is right"

"Human beings must already be having a feast. I can already smell the aroma. It's the aroma of grilled sausages. It's absolutely unmistakable!"

"There is also the smell of wine. This smell is very familiar. It is the same as what we drank in Rivendell before. It must be the wine of those wood elves!"

"Elves' wine? Could it be that those elves are also holding a feast with humans?"

"Impossible, there are so many elf soldiers cleaning the battlefield outside."

"What's more, even if they hold a feast, they will only return to Mirkwood to hold it"

"I heard from the teacher that not long ago the wood elves sent food and wine to humans."

"Don't worry about how the wine came, I can't wait any longer."

"You all stop talking, Pang Bo's saliva is about to flow down, haha"

The dwarves of the expedition team talked a lot.

Guided by Qili who had been here during the day, the chariot headed towards the center of the city hall at a constant speed.

As the distance keeps getting closer.

The bustle and noise from the Town Hall Square grew louder.

The aroma of fresh soup and barbecue came continuously.

The thirsty dwarf couldn't bear it anymore.

Finally, when the chariot driven by Whitebeard Barin entered the street next to the City Hall Square.

The eyes of all the dwarves lit up when they saw the feast in the square.

"Cough cough."

Balin couldn't help coughing when he saw the hungry dwarves beside him, and then said in a low voice, "Pay attention, this is Hegu Town, and we're here to pick up people."

"Let's go."

Seeing that the group of partners restrained a lot, Balin walked forward as he spoke, and walked forward first.

For the arrival of a group of dwarves.

Residents on the upper edge of the square soon noticed.

At this time, a group of human residents did not have a good sense of these dwarves who obviously came from the lonely mountain.

Almost all of them knew that it was these dwarves who had awakened the dragon Smaug who had destroyed their home not long ago.

Also, when their mayor, Bard, went to the Lonely Mountain to claim the treasure promised by the King of the Mountain, he was refused.

Let them have to organize the militia and elves to ask for it together.

If it weren't for the invasion of stronger and more evil half-orcs.

Humans and elves are probably at war with the dwarves of Lonely Mountain at this time.

For these reasons, the surviving residents of River Valley Town at this time can have a good attitude towards these dwarves from the Lonely Mountain.

Immediately, some humans on the square looked at the dwarves with unfriendly eyes.

Even some humans who drank a lot, looked at the expedition team and the dwarves and cursed in their mouths.

"There's something wrong with the eyes of these humans."

"Damn, I heard those guys seem to be scolding us!"

"Are we out of drink?"

"Damn it, when are you still thinking about drinking?"

"What's going on, how could they be hostile to us, those damn orcs attacked them, not us?"

"The words of those human beings are too ugly, I can't stand it!"

"Don't be impulsive, Dwalin!"

"Don't be impulsive, it's not their fault!"

"It was us, it was Thorin who broke the promise first."

“We had a little bit of a bad idea before”

"But Thorin is awake now."

"I believe he will fulfill his promise to these humans."

"Don't mess around, we are here to pick up Philip, and invite Morgan and the others by the way."

"Follow me, don't care what those humans say."

"We'll go when we're done."

White Beard Balin said to the group of partners behind him in a deep voice, but there was an incomparably bright smile on the faces of the surrounding humans in front of him.

No matter how angry human beings are, looking at such a kindly smiling dwarf old man like Bahrain, it will be fine.

Balin is also worthy of being the most charismatic and sociable of the dwarves in the expedition team.

A group of dwarves followed Balin to the depths of the Town Hall Square.

corner of the square.

At the moment when a group of dwarves appeared in the square in Lonely Mountain.

There are already temporary militiamen with weapons hanging on their bodies to report to Bard.

The militiamen left soon after reporting.

"Are the dwarves coming?"

Bilbo, with keen ears, looked at Bard and asked immediately, he had just heard what the human and Bard had said.

"Yes, it should be to pick up the seriously injured dwarf."

Bud nodded and stood up.

Gandalf also stood up when he heard this.

He was tall, and soon after he got up, he saw a group of dwarves moving slowly in the center of the square.

"It's Balin and Kili."

Gandalf spoke, and Bard had already gone out.

Gandalf followed immediately.

Bilbo followed immediately.

The female elf Tariel, who was concentrating on the bonfire, also came back to her senses at this time.

He glanced at the three people who walked away, and then looked again at the Wangting tent in the open-air garden in the distance.

This time it was a coincidence that Morgan's figure was walking out of the king's tent.

Tauriel looked happy and immediately stood up.

But she felt that she was not reserved enough, so she sat down again immediately.

"Sister Tauriel, the fish soup will be cold if you don't drink it."

Little Tilda, who was sitting on the side, stared at Tariel who was acting strangely with her cute amber eyes and said suddenly.

Being called sister by the little human girl in front of him, Tariel felt even better. Looking at the cute human cub in front of him, he smiled and said, "It's not cold yet, look, it's still steaming."

Tauriel raised the bowl in her hand as she spoke, and sure enough, the fish soup in her bowl was still steaming because she was leaning against the fire all the time.

After speaking, Tariel picked up the bowl and took a sip.

Tilda seemed to be interested in the beautiful elf sister in front of her. After looking at her for a while, she suddenly asked again, "Is sister Tauriel waiting for someone?"

Tilda's crisp voice fell, and Tariel was slightly taken aback: "I'm so obvious?"

But before she could speak, Xuege, the older sister beside Tilda, approached Tilda and said softly, "Sister Tauriel is waiting for Uncle Morgan."

As soon as Xue Ge finished speaking, Tilda immediately looked at her sister and asked, "Does Sister Tauriel like Uncle Morgan?"

Xue Ge was taken aback by his sister's question, of course.

It's just that she was a little embarrassed to speak, ignored Tilda, and drank the fish soup by herself.

Little Tilda, who didn't get an answer from her sister, didn't know what it meant to give up. She immediately looked at the female elf opposite and asked, "Does Sister Tauriel like Uncle Morgan?"

Such words were spoken from the mouth of the cute human girl in front of him, and Tariel, who was drinking soup, immediately choked.

Elder brother Bane and elder sister Xuege, who were still sitting by the campfire, immediately looked at Tilda, and they both noticed that her younger sister seemed to talk too much today.

Tauriel, who had regained his composure, was about to speak, when he heard the little girl in front of him continue to say, "Then I also like Uncle Morgan, what should I do?"

After Tilda finished speaking, Bane and Xuege immediately laughed.

Tauriel also laughed. She didn't expect Morgan to be so popular, so she looked at the cute girl in front of her and smiled, "It's okay, we can like him together."

Tariel smiled and said, the depression in his heart had been swept away at this time.

Morgan introduced it for her, and she knew that the three in front of her were the children of the human Bard who was already the mayor of River Valley Town.

"But in this case, will Uncle Morgan be angry? I think he likes sister Tauriel very much?"

When Tilda heard Tauriel's words, she looked happy at first, but soon she seemed to think of something, and immediately said worriedly.

Tariel was even happier when she heard this, she smiled and said, "No, just the two of us won't."

"So, Tilda can't make other people like him in the future."

With Tariel's permission, Tilda immediately smiled and nodded vigorously: "Yeah!"

"This is a secret between sister Tariel and me."

Tilda spoke with a bright smile, and Tariel also nodded with a smile: "Well, this is a secret between us."

"You can't tell anyone else."

"Uh-huh."

The few in front of the campfire were laughed and laughed by Tilda.

Center of the square.

Bard took Gandalf and Bilbo to meet a group of dwarves in Balin.

Morgan, who walked out of the elf king's tent, saw this scene from afar.

Walk towards the crowd quickly.

Kili, who was looking around among the dwarves, saw Morgan coming, and immediately saluted slightly and said, "Teacher."

Morgan nodded with a smile.

At this time, Balin, who was talking to Gandalf, saw Morgan approaching, and immediately came forward with a smile and said, "Morgan, our carnival feast will be held in the Lonely Mountain tomorrow night, you must come."

"Is there no limit on the number of people?"

Guessing the purpose of the dwarves in front of him, Morgan said with a smile.

Hearing Morgan's unfamiliar tone, Balin smiled even more happily, and he immediately said: "Of course not, the more the better."

Morgan nodded and smiled: "Okay, I will definitely be there tomorrow."

"Are you here to pick up Fili?"

After crossing the crowd and seeing the dwarf chariot on the street outside the square, Morgan looked at Bahrain and said.

"right"

Bahrain nodded: "Dain and his army have accompanying pharmacists, which can make Philip recover faster."

"That's good"

"I've seen Fili before. The situation is fairly stable. Come with me."

Morgan nodded, then turned and walked back.

The crowd also heard the conversation between Morgan and Bahrain, and immediately followed.

When they walked all the way to the corner of the square, they were not far from the bonfire where Tauriel was.

Morgan talked to Bahrain behind him, then strode forward, and saw the three children of Bud and Tariel smiling happily.

"What are you talking about?"

"It's all so happy."

"Uncle Morgan."

"Uncle Morgan."

Seeing Morgan's arrival, Tilda and Bain Xuege immediately stood up and shouted.

"Sit down"

After motioning the three siblings to sit down, Morgan walked to Tauriel and said softly, "Lord Thranduil is fine."

"Go ahead and apologize to him."

"Your clan companions must have missed you for a long time."

"Go and meet them."

When Morgan said this softly, he looked up and found that Tariel, who was still smiling just now, looked at him with red eyes.

Seeing that Tariel, who has always been strong and glamorous, is emotional, showing such a weak appearance.

Morgan couldn't help feeling distressed.

It seems that being expelled from the group by Thranduil hit her harder than she imagined.

It seems to know more about Tariel in front of him.

Morgan opened his hands and hugged the female elf in his arms.

This time, Morgan didn't feel the resistance from Tariel in his arms, nor did he feel stiff, but his body was trembling slightly.

Tariel cried.

At this moment, Morgan didn't speak, just hugged her quietly.

But Tariel obviously knew that a group of people not far away were still waiting for Morgan.

So he quickly broke free from Morgan's arms.

Morgan wiped away the tears for Tariel whose eyes were red from crying, and then smiled and said, "Go, I'll wait for you here later."

Tauriel nodded, glanced at Morgan, then turned and walked towards the open-air garden in the distance.

Morgan watched Tauriel leave, and then walked towards the waiting crowd.

Soon.

When a group of dwarves carried a filet stretcher to the town hall square.

The bonfire feast on the square has now entered a lively period, not only is it not deserted at all, but it is becoming more lively and noisy.

"You really don't consider joining our banquet?"

Morgan sent a group of dwarves to the chariot, looked at the white beard Balin and asked again.

It's just that Bahrain ignored the fiery gazes of the dwarves beside him, Groin Bomber Bofor, who could hardly bear it, and replied with a smile to Morgan: "Not today."

"You know, there are still many things to prepare for tomorrow's feast, all of which are waiting for us."

"We'll have another drink tomorrow"

Hearing what Balin said, Morgan stopped persuading him and said with a smile, "Then see you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow, Morgan."

Balin drove away in his chariot.

Not only took away the injured Philip.

Also took away a whole load of other dwarves' grumbles.

Morgan smiled and looked away.

Suddenly feeling a slight chill on his face, he raised his head, only to find snowflakes floating in the night sky.

Just such a winter night.

The snowflakes did not make him feel cold, but warmed him even more.
