[The Lord of the Rings The Hobbit] Ruby

Elena was woken up by the sound of fighting. Her whole body was wrapped in thick spider silk layer by layer. The spider probably wrapped her up extra tightly out of fear of the light power of the elves.The spider venom did not affect her much, but the wound lost a lot of blood, making her sleepy for a long time.Ellena still didn't have much strength on her body. She struggled to loosen the layers of spider silk, but these spider silks were flexible and sticky, and it was hard to break them. red marks.

She stopped to catch her breath, and with a trembling right hand, she pulled out a dagger from the quiver she was carrying behind her back. The dagger was very sharp, and it was much faster to cut the spider silk, but after a while, her eyes turned black and she was forced to stopped.

The wound on her back was in hot pain, and she also felt severe pain in her shoulder. Ellena stretched her hand behind to check the wound, but she touched a stick of blood, and the smell of blood made her dizzy.She closed her eyes, feeling chills all over her body. For the first time, she wondered whether her choice to come to Mirkwood was correct. The plot hadn't unfolded, and the hero hadn't appeared yet, and she was about to die in the hands of the spider.

Although she would be reborn in Vera's hall if she died, Ellena thought again that her soul did not belong here completely, would Vera accept her mixed soul?

Ellena couldn't help laughing at herself, she still had time to think wildly here before she died.She didn't have the strength to hold the dagger anymore, she let go, and curled up with trembling hands, waiting for the darkness to come.

Suddenly, the commotion outside became louder and louder. It seemed that there were disputes between the dwarves and other people. Elina was frowning and thinking. Someone tore off the spider silk that wrapped her. Green eyes, like his father's, but younger.

"Elf?" He looked a little puzzled, and found that the spider silk behind Ellena was dyed blood red, and the blood was still dripping down the sticky silk, and his expression became serious, "You insist Come on, I'll get you out right away."

Ellena has no strength to speak, but she can still clearly observe the young elf in front of her. He is very good-looking, with long blond hair, some braided and some scattered behind his head, and a gold ornament on his back. Recurve bow with ivy flowers.This person did not appear in Ellena's memory before, she was sure, because he was so handsome, she couldn't have seen him but could not remember, but Ellena felt an inexplicable familiarity with him. peace of mind.

He freed her from the web, carefully placed Elena on his back, and jumped from the tree.

Ellena still couldn't remember, the lost blood seemed to have taken away most of her brain's ability to think, and she quietly enjoyed the warm and pleasant smell of his body.

The other elves came up to meet them. Although they were surprised and curious about Ellena on his back, they didn't say much. A red-haired female elf asked, "What should I do with these dwarves?" "They are my companions. "Erlena spoke weakly. She glanced at the tied up dwarves. There is no Bilbo, it's good, and there is a backup plan when she can't handle it. "I am from Rivendell, please take me to Se In front of Randyll."

He didn't agree right away, as if he was thinking about something. After a while, he said seriously: "I can't trust you completely, but I will take you and your companions back to the woodland hall, and after your injuries are healed, I will Take you to meet my king."

Elena nodded lightly: "Thank you."

What an upright and lovely young man, he should be a trustworthy person, Ellena thought to herself, her consciousness became blurred again, she relaxed her arms around his neck, and fell asleep peacefully on his back, without noticing His body stiffened for a moment.

Ellena had another dream, this one was longer than the previous one, and the joy she felt was more obvious.It was still in Lorien, but this time, she saw his face clearly, with pale blond hair, dark blue eyes, and skin as white as snow on a mountain top, and when he smiled, his whole body seemed to be glowing.

She remembered.

The dreamland slowly melted into a blank, and Ellena opened her eyes. She was lying on a big comfortable bed. Thankfully, the wood elves of Mirkwood were not like those of Lorien who slept on trees.The wound on her back no longer felt pain, and she sat up with her upper body propped up on her elbows.The clothes he was wearing had been replaced by a green nightgown. The fabric was made of unknown material which was very soft and would not affect the healing of the wound at all.Ellena touched her back. The wound extending from her right shoulder to the left side of her waist was still bandaged, and she was recovering well.

"You're awake." A cheerful voice sounded, and Ellena turned her head to look over. It was the red-haired elf from that day, holding a set of blue casual clothes in her hands, "I'm Tauriel, The captain of the guard of the Woodland Kingdom. You must be hungry, change your clothes quickly, and I will take you to eat."

Tauriel?It turns out that this elf is a real person.Elena glanced at her red hair, and then her eyes fell on the clothes, which were obviously Tariel's own clothes.Elena nodded: "Thank you, I'm Elina." Probably because she hadn't spoken for a while, her voice was dry and hoarse, which shocked Elena herself. "It's okay, you just need to drink more water, you've been in a coma for several days." Tariel reminded kindly.

I have to say that this girl is not a bad person, but she has a lack of love to fall in love with a dwarf.Elena complained silently.

After changing his clothes, Tauriel got two large servings of food and a bottle of wine. It had been a long time since Elina had eaten food made by elves, and she felt inexplicably kind, especially the bottle of wine was still Where the brethren from the south of Taril live, that is, in Lorien.The two chatted while eating, and Ellena took the opportunity to ask about the current situation of the dwarves.

"They are all under supervision, don't worry, although they are always complaining and ignorant of manners, His Majesty didn't make things difficult for them." Tariel comforted her.

Well, she was relieved to know that they had food and drink and could sleep peacefully.

"Tariel, my father asked me to take her to see him." Some light footsteps sounded behind her, and Ellena looked over, and it was him.Ellena felt a little annoyed, she didn't recognize him when she saw him for the first time, she should have thought of it earlier.Tauriel looked at the two of them with a weird expression, took the cutlery and said goodbye and left.

"Hello, I'm Legolas, please follow me." He smiled at her.

It's so beautiful, Ellena praised sincerely in her heart, he was ten thousand times more beautiful than she imagined, just seeing him, she couldn't help but want to sing for him.But they were not that familiar yet, and her inexplicable embarrassment made her suppress the joy in her heart, and introduced herself politely: "Hi, I'm Elena, I hope King Thranduil has not been kept waiting for a long time."

The two walked along the corridor and passed through the gorgeous underground palace. It is said that this woodland hall was built after Menegroth, the old city of the Sindar. Her ancestor Thingol was the king there. In this way, she is Thranduil. He is a direct descendant of the former king, but it doesn't seem to be of much use. She also has the blood of the Noldor royal family that the jungle royal family has always hated. It can probably be offset by at least two.Elena's eyes fell on Legolas' blond hair, and she kept thinking wildly.The noble, cold, eccentric king brought her extraordinary psychological pressure.

How to tell nonsense to an elderly elf who has lived for more than 6000 years without being discovered is a real problem.

Thranduil sat on a wooden throne in the empty hall. The crown woven of red leaves and wild berries complemented his long golden hair. He held an oak scepter in one hand and a scepter in the other. In his hand was a glass of wine.Like his son, he had the same extraordinary beauty, but Thranduil's eyes were colder, as if he didn't care much about anything.

"I am Elrina, daughter of Elrond. It is my honor to meet you, Your Majesty Thranduil." Elrina tried her best to show the most humble and polite attitude. Whether she can successfully rescue the dwarves depends on the king's decision. mood.

Thranduil looked lazy: "I haven't seen Elrond for a long time, maybe he was confused and let his daughter set foot on my land with a group of dwarves."

"I'm sorry to disturb you," Ellena bowed and apologized, "We didn't intend to challenge your authority in the kingdom, but just strayed from the direction in the forest, we wouldn't stay in the forest too much, My father and Mithranda entrusted me to send these dwarves out of the Mirkwood smoothly, and they have an important task." Elina handed Elrond's letter to Thranduil.

Thranduil glanced at the letter, curled his lips, and mocked: "I don't think those stupid dwarves can take on any important tasks."

Thranduil is really not easy to fool, but without the consent of the dwarves, of course Ellena can't tell the truth one by one, and she vaguely feels that based on some rumors she has heard, Thranduil After knowing the truth, things will only become more stubborn, and even make things develop in an irreversible direction.

Fortunately, Bilbo was left behind, otherwise there would be no other way.Ellena slandered in her heart, but on the surface she still pleaded earnestly: "Maybe they have bad tempers, but they are kind-hearted people who value promises, and they will all thank you for taking in. If you will allow us to go, they will make you a piece of jewelry free of charge to suit you. You may call for the dwarves Balin and Thorin, and they will promise themselves."

Ellena sweated, Bahrain, it's up to you, Sorin's temper and eloquence are really not good enough.

Although it had been planned for a long time, when Thranduil let go, Elena almost burst into tears.But this place can't stay for long, a group of people hurriedly escaped from the woodland kingdom after thanking them again and again.Sure enough, not long after the dwarves left, Thranduil found out that something was wrong, but he had nothing to do with the innocent Elena. In a panic, His Majesty the King personally ordered her to be expelled from the Woodland Kingdom up.

This decision made Thranduil often regret it in the future, but this is a story.

The homeless Ellena had to go on the road alone, the wound had not fully healed, and no matter how good the elves' medical skills were, it was not so easy for a blood hole to grow.As she walked aimlessly, she wiped the sweat from her forehead due to the pain, feeling extremely frustrated.

If I had known it earlier, I would have left with the dwarves, presumably they would not refuse cruelly after traveling together for so long.

She glanced at the seemingly borderless dense forest ahead, and lamented again.

"Erlina! Wait!" A somewhat familiar voice sounded not far behind, and Ellena turned her head and squinted her eyes. The long red hair flying in the air under the sun was particularly conspicuous. It might be Tariel, and there is a blond figure behind her, moving quickly to her position.

Is it him?

She suddenly felt that Vera really still took care of her.
