Chapter 254 Try your best to detoxify

In the white rapids, the expedition team could not control the direction or speed at all.

Borg led the orcs in a persistent pursuit on the shore, and a small group blocked in front of them, waiting for an opportunity to attack.

However, these dwarves are all elites, and some of them can even be said to have experienced hundreds of battles, and all crises have been skillfully resolved by them.

An orc was about to attack Noli, who was floating by, but he dragged his weapon into the fast river. An orc stood on a dead tree at both ends of the river and was about to attack Bahrain, but he had just jumped down. He was nailed to the tree trunk by the knife thrown by Thorin. The weapon in his hand also fell into Thorin's hand. The orc also jumped on Dwalin's barrel, but was knocked down by his headbutt. , and also seized an ax by the way.

After floating a few hundred meters along the river, the expedition team not only suffered no losses but also seized three axes and a knife, and used these equipment to kill more than ten orcs.

The stream passed through a tree bridge, and a row of orcs stood on the tree trunks.

The dwarves showed tacit cooperation. When one person drifted over, he struck an ax at the tree trunk. After a few ax blows, the tree bridge broke and a row of orcs were all swept into the rapids.

The most exaggerated thing was Bombur. He was carried to the shore by an orc with a spear, but he crushed more than a dozen orcs to death with the help of a wine barrel in the process of bouncing.

After he stopped, he kicked open the bottom of the barrel. Using the old wooden barrel as armor, he held an ax in his left hand and a knife in his right hand. He killed several orcs before jumping into the empty barrel.

"Dear me," Aaron exclaimed in astonishment, "Is he really a fat man? He's so damn flexible. He doubled his record by himself!"

At the same time, Legolas and Tariel also chased after him.

The expedition team has been able to survive until now because the elves have shared most of the pressure.

Legolas jumped on top of Dwalin and Oyin, using their heads as a foothold, and kept shooting arrows at the orcs on both sides.

His superb archery skills are perfectly reflected in him, and it is no exaggeration to describe him as a perfect arrow.

"Gaius." Legolas' dissatisfied voice came from the front. While he was shooting arrows, he could also spare some of his energy to find Aaron's figure among a dozen wooden barrels.

"Uh...is something wrong?"

"I have made a request to my father and he will soon agree that you should not escape from prison."

Aaron smiled awkwardly but politely, "Do you think it makes sense to tell me this now?"

"After it's safe, you and I go back to heal my father."

"Your Highness, you have to be reasonable as an elf.

You locked me up for no reason and used my personal freedom to force me to make unequal deals. Do you think this is appropriate? "

Hearing this, Legolas tightened his bowstring and shot two orcs through each other. "The elves will give you enough reward, and you will also gain the friendship of the wood elves."

Aaron's eyes were slightly bright. He had already gained the friendship of the dwarves during this expedition. If he added the friendship of the elves, he would not be able to get along like a fish in water in this world!

It seems that even after escaping, the magic potion that should be used cannot be spared!

"Your Highness, you are out of touch when you say that.

I will heal King Thranduil, but before that I must complete the dwarven contract. "

"What contract?" Legolas asked curiously.

"This has nothing to do with you."

"I can guess it even if you don't tell me."

"I've had enough, take your foot off my head," Dwalin said angrily, "otherwise I'm not sure I'll chop it off."

Upon hearing this, Legolas stepped on Dvalin's head, stepped on the heads of several dwarves and jumped to the shore, fighting with the nearest orcs.

He was one against four, but a fifth enemy appeared behind him, ax raised high.

At the critical moment, Thorin threw out the only long knife in his hand and saved his life.

Legolas looked at Thorin drifting away with a somewhat complicated expression. It was not that he had not noticed the enemy behind him, but he did not understand why Thorin, the dwarf prince who hated the elves so much, would save him.

While he was puzzled, the last orc slowly pulled the bowstring behind him.

Ding!

The arrow shot by the Orc was interrupted by the arrow shot by Tauriel. She jumped and kicked over the Orc's weapon, and then put the dagger on his neck.

"Tauriel, wait.

Don't kill him, keep him alive. "

"Chase and kill them, don't let them escape."

At this time, Borg led dozens of orcs and chased them along the river, but Legolas and Tariel were unable to stop them and could only watch them chase them out of the border.

...

A few hours later, the expedition team escaped the pursuit of the orcs and stopped by a slow-flowing river.

But this is only temporary. The slowdown of the water flow means that their speed will slow down, and Borg and the others will catch up soon.

Everyone came ashore in embarrassment. Kili, who had been holding on, roared in pain and fell to the ground. His right leg was already stained red with blood.

"Kili is injured. His leg needs to be bandaged." Bofur looked at him worriedly.

"A group of Orcs are chasing us, we can't stop," Thorin said.

"I'll do it! It'll only take two minutes." Aaron stood up and said, and when others were discussing how to hurry, he walked up to Kili.

"how to say?

There are not many people that I can admire, and you can barely count towards half of them. "

"Should I thank you for the compliment?" Kili smiled bitterly.

"Are you kidding me at this time?" Aaron's face was solemn, and he looked at him seriously while bandaging, "Not to mention the poison on the arrow, the loss of blood alone is enough to kill half of your life. You may not survive. a few days.”

"Can you save me?"

"Okay." Aaron nodded heavily after hesitating for a moment, "I have a treasure at the bottom of the box, but I won't use it unless I have to.

And you and I haven't reached the level of life-and-death acquaintance, and even then I may not necessarily use it for you. "

"Then why are you talking about this?"

"Explain clearly so that I won't have a bad conscience after you die."

Qili:......

I'm curious about the reason, but I have no words.

“I have a teacher, and I also know some medical knowledge.

I will try my best to save you, but I am only 50% sure. After all, I don’t know anything about this poison. "

"Thank you." Qili thanked him solemnly, and then looked at Aaron, "Can you tell me who you are? For the sake of my dying.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s not that I don’t believe in you, each of us believes in you.

But you are so special, you know a lot, and you are very strong. "

"We'll wait until you're dead." Aaron patted his wound, and Kili grinned in pain.

At this time, footsteps approached slowly, a human man appeared behind everyone, and pointed a bow and arrow at Ori, and the atmosphere fell silent for an instant.

Dwalin picked up a wooden stick and stood in front of Ori, but before he could act, an arrow shot through the stick.

In less than a second, he shot the second arrow, knocking the stone off Kili's hand. The next moment, the third arrow was already on the string.

When Aaron saw this scene, he felt inexplicable.

Do people in this world play with cold weapons so easily?

It didn't matter that Legolas' archery skills were better than his. After all, he was an elf prince and had received professional training.

But this man was wearing rags, and he didn't have any family background at first glance, and his archery skills were actually better than him. It was really unreasonable.

"If you dare to do it again, your life will be lost."

No one acted rashly for a while. Balin quietly glanced behind the man, and his heart suddenly dropped into his stomach.

"Sorry, if I'm not mistaken, are you from Changhu Town?

Can we rent that barge over there? "

The man hesitated for a few seconds, then slowly put away the bow and arrow.

"Poor man," Aaron murmured.

"Anyone with eyesight can see that," Kili said in a low voice.

"No, I mean he is short of money, very short of money, but he is not a bad person."

"How can you be so sure?" Bilbo asked in confusion.

"Although he is only one person, he has the right time and place. It is not difficult at all to kill a group of us unarmed and exhausted people with his archery skills.

Even if he killed us, the money we had was still his, but he still chose to make a deal with us. "

"It seems...that's the truth."

The man moved the empty wine barrel onto the boat, "Why do you think I will help you?"

"Your boots are very old and your coat is very shabby. You should have several mouths to feed at home!" Bahrain said with a familiar smile, "How many people are there?"

"One boy, two girls."

"And your wife, she must be a beauty!"

"That's right." The man paused and said, "In life."

The smile on Balin's face froze instantly, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."

"Oh, come on, stop pretending to be nice," Dwalin said impatiently.

"What are you anxious about?" the man asked.

"Why are you asking?" "I want to know who you are and why you are here?"

"We are just businessmen, from the Blue Mountains." Balin said with a smile, "We are going to visit some relatives in the Iron Hills."

The man nodded, turned his attention to Aaron, and asked, "Don't tell me that he also went to Iron Hills to visit relatives?"

The corner of Aaron's mouth twitched. Just as he was about to explain something, he was interrupted by Balin, "He went to visit a friend."

"Haha! His parents are so relieved that they are willing to let a child follow you across mountains and rivers."

“He ran away from home and joined us halfway.

You also have children of your own, and you should know that children's friendships can sometimes be so... magical. "

"The level of lying with open eyes is really ridiculous." Aaron complained secretly in his heart.

"What about him?" The man looked at Bilbo again, "If I hadn't looked carefully, I might not have been able to find that there was a halfling in your team."

"He also went to visit his friends." Balin smiled like a good old man. "Although the Iron Hills is a country of dwarves, the dwarves living there do not have friends from other races."
