When Gandalf was captured, the big boat in Long Lake slowly leaned over the north shore.

The dwarves jumped from the boat in excitement and stepped on solid ground.

The lonely mountain was right in front of them, and theoretically speaking, the land they were stepping on now was their homeland.

Dwalin knelt down excitedly, kissed the ground under his feet, and whispered with tears in his eyes: "It's back, we're finally back......"

Thorin wanted to kneel too, but at this moment, he still needed to stay calm.

Reaching the Lonely Mountain does not mean victory, they have to enter the Lonely Mountain and find the heart of the mountain.

Only with the heart of the mountain range can he command the heroes and dominate the world.

Of course, the command group mentioned here is just a command of the dwarves, but this is enough, the dwarf race has a total of nine tribes, in addition to the lonely mountain dwarves, there are other 8 tribes, the lonely mountain people are the most orthodox dwarf royal family, but now the lonely mountain dwarves have no troops at all, only by unifying the other 8 tribes, can they become strong again.

The other 8 Dwarven clans are only at the mercy of those who possess the Heart of the Mountain, so Thorin must obtain the Heart of the Mountain if he wants to revive the dynasty of the Lone Mountain Dwarves.

That's right, at any cost, by any means.

Thorin looked up at the lonely mountain in the distance, and he felt the blood of his ancestors calling to him.

He couldn't wait to say: "We have to hurry up, we must find the entrance before the sun sets, otherwise, our hard work this year will be in vain!" ”

The dwarves immediately stood up and eagerly followed Thorin to the Lonely Mountain.

Naturally, Maple and Bilbo were left behind.

They don't have any affection for the lonely mountain, and they don't get excited when they see a mountain, after all, this is not their home.

Bilbo sighed faintly, "I'm finally in the Lonely Mountain, I wish it was over sooner, I miss Rivendell and Gandalf's tobacco a little, and I don't know how Gandalf is doing now, Gandalf once said that we should wait for him around here, but he hasn't come yet." ”

Xu Feng said lightly: "Don't worry, Gandalf will be fine." ”

Bilbo nodded, "I'm so relieved to hear you say that." ”

Xu Feng smiled, "Alright, let's follow Thorin and them." ”

Although Xu Feng doesn't like dwarves in his heart, the location of the Lonely Mountain is very important, even if the Alliance Army can't get the Lonely Mountain, they can't let the dark monster's eyesight get the Lonely Mountain.

In other words, Smaug, entrenched in the lonely mountain, must die.

The team moved forward quickly.

The dwarves trotted at unprecedented speeds.

In less than an hour, they were in the ruins of a valley.

Ori asked curiously, "What is this place?" ”

Balin said with a smile: "Oli, you young generation were born in the Blue Mountains, and you have never been here, so it is understandable that you don't know the existence of this ruin." This is the ancient town of River, of course, it has been abandoned for a long time, more than 3,000 years ago, Smaug attacked here, back then, Riverdale was very rich, but after a dragon's breath fire, Riverdale was completely in ruins, and the residents who escaped also went to Changhu Town. ”

"......I see," Oli nodded and said, "So this is Hegu Town!" ”

Solin said in a deep voice: "Walk through the ancient town of River, walk for another two hours, we can reach the Lonely Mountain, it is already afternoon, and there is really not much time left for us, so we can't rest, we must rush to the Lonely Mountain as soon as possible." ”

"Yes!"

The dwarves kept going.

They walked from the high peaks into Riverdale, then through Rivertown, into the Smaug Wasteland.

The Smaug Wasteland is desolate, and it has not been popular for nearly 50 years.

As he walked, Thorin remembered the prosperity of the place.

Before Smaug occupied the Lonely Mountain, all the dwarven tribes had to come here to pay tribute, and even the humans and elves had to grovel to do business with them.

The most powerful metal in the world is Mithril, and Mithril can only be mined in the Lonely Mountain.

This is where the confidence of the Gushan Dynasty lies.

It's a pity that because of Smaug's existence, everything in the Dwarven Dynasty of the Lonely Mountain was destroyed.

The dwarven expedition quickly passed through the Smaug Heath and reached the back mountain of the Lonely Mountain.

There is a huge statue on the back mountain of Gu Mountain, which is the statue of Turin, the ancestor of the dwarves.

The dwarves searched the statue, and finally found a rather hidden stone staircase near the statue's hand.

The stone staircase is so narrow that it is hidden between gravel and weeds, and it almost goes straight up and down, so you can't see it unless you look closely.

"Climb up here!"

Thorin and the others used their hands and feet together, struggling to climb up the stone steps.

The sun began to set in the distance, and the sunlight turned into the red glow of the setting sun.

The dwarves raced against the clock, and finally climbed the stone steps to a platform that was not too big, just before the sun was about to set.

Thorin looked at the parchment map, then frowned and said, "This should be it...... Quick, before the sun sets, look for the keyhole! ”

So, all the dwarves scrambled to find it.

Xu Feng, Bilbo and others stood on the sidelines and watched.

Thorin was a little angry about this, and he felt that at this time, Lifemaple and Bilbo should do their best to help them find the key together, instead of standing by and watching.

Of course, his dissatisfaction can only be hidden in his heart, and he dare not say it.

The dwarves searched for a long time, but they couldn't find the so-called keyhole.

Seeing that the sun was setting little by little, and the light was dimming little by little, the dwarves were suddenly very anxious.

They went through many hardships and dangers, and finally reached the lonely mountain.

They also had no way to enter the palace of the Lonely Mountain, but they couldn't find the keyhole.

That's the most devastating thing.

"What does that sentence on the parchment map say?" Bahrain asked eagerly.

All the dwarves shook their heads, they couldn't read the Elven Moon's words.

King Elon had told them once, but they had forgotten it.

At this time, Xu Feng said lightly: "Standing on the gray stone, when the thrush comes knocking on the door, the last light of the day of Turin will shine on the keyhole." ”

"Standing on the gray stone......" Thorin looked at the stone beneath his feet.

That's right, this platform is made up of a huge gray rock.

"When the thrush knocks on the door...... Barin said with a frown, "but there are no thrushes here?" ”

"The last light of the day of Turin will shine on the keyhole...... "The so-called Turin Day is the birthday of Turin, the ancestor of all dwarves, that is, the festival of the beginning of autumn for the dwarves, and it is today!" ”

"All the details can be matched except for the thrush, but why can't we find the keyhole?" Bahrain asked in a broken voice.
