Chapter 393: Poor People Must Have Hateness
Xu Feng nodded slightly.
Judging by Thranduil's expression now, he wasn't lying, and there was no need to lie.
Thranduil continued to say coldly: "After hearing my promise, Seoul and the other dwarves are naturally very happy, their status in the dwarven clan is already very worrisome, and they urgently need to find an ally as strong as our manager Mu. ”
"So, with confidence, I took out the white gem and presented it to the dwarves."
"When they saw my white gem, everyone was dumbfounded, their eyes were full of greed for the treasure, but at that time, I couldn't take it back."
"At that time, I believe that Thor, as a long-established dwarven king, will not encroach on treasures that do not belong to him, not to mention, we still have 3 million gold coins, yes and the agreement to form an alliance."
"In my opinion, in every sense of the word, high gold coins and strong alliances are the most important things for a country."
"However, three months later, when I returned to the palace of the Lonely Mountain with 2,000,000 gold coins, King Thor received me with great arrogance. It was he who asked me to meet him, saying that this was the only way to show my sincerity in the alliance. ”
"I am very angry in my heart, as the king of the wood elves, I must maintain my dignity, because my dignity is the dignity of all our wood elves."
"But the White Jewel is still with King Thor, and I need it very badly, for my wife is dying."
At this, Thranduil's eyes were full of tears, and his fingers were clenched and gurgling.
Part of it was humiliation, part of it was sadness.
Such a coldest and most ruthless man in the eyes of the world turned out to be so affectionate.
Xu Feng couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Thranduil controlled his emotions for a moment, and continued to speak in a cold tone, "For the sake of the white gem necklace, I endured it, and I bent my knee slightly towards King Thor sitting on the high throne...... Human, you know, I've lived for tens of thousands of years, I've been through two wars that could have destroyed the world, I've faced the wrath of Smaug, I've fought against Sauron's army, I've never bowed to anyone, but that time...... I literally bent my knees. ”
"King Thor and the other dwarves were triumphant, as if the whole world had been trampled under their feet, and I offered to exchange the final payment of 2 million gold coins for my white gem necklace, which was a very legitimate request. However, King Saul sneered at me, saying that I wanted to buy the most unique white gemstone necklace in the world with such a small amount of money. ”
"I couldn't help but feel a little angry in my heart, because what was agreed at that time was 3 million gold coins, and I had already paid 1 million in advance, and this price was 10 times higher than the actual price!"
"But I still held back, I sincerely said to King Thor, if I am not satisfied with the price, I can raise it slowly, but the white gem necklace originally belonged to our wood elves, I need him now more than ever, I beg King Thor to give me back what belongs to me, and I am willing to accept all the past at any price."
"However, King Thor arrogantly said that no gold coin could buy their white gemstone necklace, and only the dwarves of the lonely mountain deserved such a perfect necklace."
"I was immediately very angry, everyone present should know that the white gem necklace was only entrusted by me to King Thor for transformation, and I also paid a deposit for it, and I also brought the final payment, but the greedy King Thor treacherously took it by force and took the treasure that originally belonged to our wood elves for himself!"
"I asked King Thor to return the white jewel necklace to me, but King Thor arrogantly refused, saying instead that I was a toad and wanted to eat swan meat!"
"I was not satisfied, I was eager to capture the Lonely Mountain Palace immediately, but I quickly calmed down. I said coldly to King Thor and the other dwarves present that I have lived for 10,000 years, and have seen countless ups and downs, and that such shamelessness and greed as they are will be damned. ”
"They scoffed at my claims and didn't care, and I knew that it was impossible to buy back my white gemstone necklace from them, so I wasted no time, and turned around and left the Lonely Mountain Palace."
"Another year has passed, my wife has passed away, and I am saddened and grieved, while the dwarves are still having fun in the palace of the Lonely Mountain."
"So, year after year, until the ninth year, the demon dragon Smaug woke up from nowhere, he was a monster a hundred times more greedy than the dwarves, and when he learned that there were countless treasures in the palace of the Lonely Mountain, he flew directly to the Lonely Mountain."
"The dwarves were strong, and the fortress was well defended, but they couldn't stop Smaug. Smaug's breath of dragon's breath was like the walls of the Lonely Mountain Palace, where countless dwarven soldiers were burned alive, and the Lonely Mountain Royals began to flee, only then did they remember to come to the rescue of their nearby allies. ”
"When I saw Smaug flying towards the Lonely Mountain, I knew that something was wrong, and I quickly gathered an elite army of wood elves and hurried towards the Lonely Mountain Palace."
"It's a pity, when I arrived, the Lonely Mountain Palace had already turned into a sea of fire, and the demon dragon Smaug had already entered the Lonely Mountain Palace."
Thranduil frowned and said in a deep voice, "If the dwarves had fended off Smaug's onslaught in the first place and kept Smaug outside the Lonely Mountain Palace, then our Wood Elf troops might still be able to fight against it. However, Smaug has already entered the Lonely Mountain Palace, there is no way to fight this battle, no matter how big the Lonely Mountain Palace, it is impossible for thousands of troops and horses to fill it at the same time, but Smaug's dragon breath fire can kill everyone who enters the Lonely Mountain Palace in seconds along the passage. ”
"I will not take the lives of my wood elf people to make such a senseless sacrifice, not to mention, I did not form an alliance with King Thor, King Thor greedily took away the white gem necklace that belonged to me, and my wife died with regret, I did not choose to take revenge on them, I did not fall into the well, this is already my greatest benevolence."
"I saw that the Lonely Mountain Palace was gone, so I didn't want to stay there and gloat, so I returned the same way with the Wood Elf troops...... And this, it was even thought by the dwarves of the lonely mountain that they would not be saved when they saw death! Could it be that their lives are their lives, their wealth is wealth, and we Wood Elves deserve to be sacrificed for them? ”
Hatred and mockery appeared on Thranduil's face.
Xu Feng finally understood the grievances between the wood elves and the dwarves of the Lonely Mountain.
From a logical point of view, there is nothing wrong with the Wood Elves.
It's the lonely mountain dwarves who are wrong.
Although the dwarves of the lonely mountain are miserable now, the poor people must have something to hate.
