Thorin, Qili, Feli, and Xu Feng rode on their own horses and continued to walk towards the depths of the fog.

Every time they walked a distance, Chili and Fili left a black pebbles on the ground.

"What is this?" Xu Feng couldn't help asking.

He understood the actions of Qili and Fili to mark along the way, but using black pebbles really made Xu Feng unable to understand.

The stones like pebbles are everywhere, and a small piece of black is not particularly eye-catching in the foggy swamp.

Such markers may not be noticed if they are thrown on the road, but Chilifil is used as markers?

Qili grinned and said, "Mr. Diedi, you don't know anything about this. This is called a marking stone, which is mined from the depths of Gushan Mountain. In the eyes of others, these are just black pebbles without characteristics. In the eyes of our Gushan Dwarfs, this stone is a stone that can bloom green light. We will never get lost by marking this stone."

Xu Feng asked in surprise: "Only you dwarves can see it?"

Fili smiled and said, "No, not all dwarves can see it, but we, the Lone Mountain dwarves, can definitely see it-this stone was excavated together with the heart of the mountain."

"Oh." Two big words appeared in Xu Feng's mind: radiation.

These marking stones should be contaminated with the energy of some of the mountain hearts, and the Gushan dwarves were also infected with this radiation energy. Therefore, only when the Gushan dwarves looked at these pebbles, they would feel that these pebbles were shining.

From this point of view, the energy of the heart of the mountain is still quite powerful.

No wonder the old king of Gushan regarded it as a treasure.

Unfortunately, it is useless to recognize the value of the heart of the mountain. The key is whether you have the ability to protect this treasure.

A gentleman is innocent, but he is guilty of possessing a treasure.

The four continued to move forward.

The traces of battle on the ground are becoming clearer and clearer, and the blood is becoming fresher.

When they reached one kilometer, the battle traces and the normal routes became different.

One road follows the traces of wooden stake chains, while the other road is heading towards the fork road.

Thorin held the horse's reins and turned around and asked Xu Feng, "Swordsman, which road should we take?"

Xu Feng said in a deep voice: "Normally, we should take the road with wooden stake chain marks. The wooden stake chain marks there are still very clear, which means that it has just been destroyed. Maybe if you go deeper, the wooden stake chain will be completely restored. But..."

Xu Feng pointed to the traces of the battle over there and said, "It is obvious that a fierce battle has just happened here. Both sides of the battle must be the Elf Clan and the Orc Scouts. As members of the alliance, we are heading to the Elf Kingdom Rivendell, so we should go and help."

Thorin said coldly: "I don't want to help the elves. I remember that the elves betrayed us, which led to the fall of Gushan."

Qili also said indignantly: "Yes! We will never help the elves! The elves are all hypocritical guys!"

Xu Feng frowned slightly, "Qili, have you seen an elf?"

Qili was slightly stunned, "That's not. When I was very young, Gushan fell. My childhood was spent in remote and barren blue mountains. Not to mention elves, there would be no humans."

Xu Feng said: "You have never seen the elves, so how can you know that the elves are all hypocritical guys?"

Qili said for granted: "Is that needless to say? It was the betrayal of the elves that led us to lose the Lone Mountain."

Xu Feng shook his head, "No, I can understand your loss and anger, of course, but you also have to think rationally. Is it really the betrayal of the elves that made you lose the Lone Mountain?"

Philip asked, "Isn't it? Who else besides the elves? Other dwarves? Other humans?"

Xu Feng said in a deep voice: "No, the one who directly caused you to lose the Gushan Palace is the monster dragon Smaug. If it had not attacked Gushan, Gushan would not have fallen."

Qili blinked, "...Well, yes, Smaug is the biggest enemy, but the betrayal of the elves is still unforgivable and forgiven."

Xu Feng said helplessly: "First of all, when the old king Thor asked for help, Thrandir, the elves of the dark forest, were the first to arrive with his troops. What does this mean? It means that he wanted to help. But why didn't he lead his troops into the Gushan Palace? Because he knew very well that the way to die by piled up corpses would not win the war with the dragon Smaug. From this perspective alone, he did not betray you, he was just weighing the outcome. You can't ask a non-dwarf race to help you at the risk of the elite power of the entire race being destroyed - The dark forest is closest to Modo, the old nest of the dark demon king Soren, and there are still many terrifying dark monsters growing in the jungle. King Thrandir is shouldering the first line of defense to resist the dark legion! If all his elite forces are killed, where can there be a peaceful life in the Middle Earth?"

"this……"

Qili and Fili looked at each other.

This is something that little people of their level cannot consider.

Not to mention them, even Thorin himself did not consider this level.

Over the years, he could not forget the fact that King Thrandil rode the deer beast and turned away resolutely. He always felt that it was the elves who betrayed their Gushan dwarves, and that the elves owed them Gushan dwarves, but... what "Didi" said today made his hatred shaken a little.

Yes, the Lone Mountain Dwarf did not give anything to King Thrandir. The old king Thor always said that he would use the heart of the mountains to give it to Thrandir, but in fact he never gave it to him.

The Gushan Dwarves themselves have many problems. What's more, from a rational perspective, even if Thrandir did not withdraw at the beginning, with their strength, it would be impossible to kill Smaug. They were just piled up the door of the Gushan Palace.

Seeing that the three dwarves were silent, Xu Feng continued to say calmly: "What's more, the one who didn't help you was King Thrandir of the Dark Jungle Elf Kingdom, not King Elon of the Rivendir Kingdom. Even if you have hatred for King Thrandir, you should not take your anger on all the elves, especially the elves of Rivendir. This is not a gentleman's act."

Thorin said in a deep voice: "Swordsman, you may be right. No matter what, we dwarves and elves belong to the alliance. When facing the common orc enemy, we should put our previous hatred aside."

Xu Feng smiled and said, "That's right."

Thorin then showed off his heavy axe, "Qilfili, prepare for battle!"

"yes!"

Qilifei drew out the sword in a flash, her face full of excitement.
