Chapter 112
Chapter 112
Hardion did not immediately reflect the deep meaning of Lucius' words after he gave the answer.But when the afterglow of the setting sun was about to disappear into the sky, the two elf guards, who were belatedly aware of it, suddenly looked at each other in dismay.
The days in winter are shorter than the nights, and the nights seem to come unexpectedly, without warning.And because Lucius, who was in the lead, had been riding his horse unhurriedly, they were actually just not far from the territory of Sarn Gable.
It was probably when the feeling of hunger just arose that Hardion realized that he seemed to have made a very important mistake.
Lucius only said that he was responsible for leading the way, but he never said that he was responsible for calling a stop.By the time Hardyen reflected that they needed to find a place to stop and prepare for the night, it was already a bit late.
"We need to stop and find a place to spend the night," Hadien said, "or it will be dark."
"Oh, so." Lucius then looked around, pointing to a small hillside in the distance, "How about there?" He said, looking at Thranduil thoughtfully, seeking his approval .
Thranduil was silent all the way, and this time was no exception.
After choosing the address, Hadien was thankful that his reaction was not too slow, and at the same time began to prepare for camping in a hurry.
The four elves dismounted one after another, and the scene suddenly became awkward again.
Just now he forgot to choose a site in advance to set up camp and prepare dinner. It was just a momentary negligence that Hardion hadn't been responsible for making such a decision for many years.But he is no stranger to the process of the elf king stationing and resting during his tour.However, after he took the lead in unloading the tools needed for camping on the pack horse, he raised his head, but was unable to speak for a long time.
According to the previous procedure, Hadien will arrange other guards to help at this time to confirm whether the surrounding area is safe, and the logistics elves will unload the tools of the elf king from the carriage at the same time, and assemble the final Comfortable environment for rest.
In front of them, Thranduy and Lucius had just dismounted and were standing beside their own horses.Except for them, there was Annis who was also staring wide-eyed and waiting for the next move.
Hardion's eyes darted back and forth between Thranduy and Lucius, struggling for a long time and didn't know how to place these two.
He wanted the Elf King to find a clean place to rest for a while, and wait for him and Annis to clear the open space in front of him.But looking around, there is no such thing as a "clean place".
Immediately, Hardion looked at Lucius again.
To be honest, although Lucius had served as the elf king's valet some time ago.However, this post was set up by Thranduil on a whim, and actually did not have any substantive work content, except to stand by the Elf King's side and accompany him.And as pointless as the job might sound, no woodland elf would think Lucius was just an ordinary elf.In particular, Hadion, who was "fortunate" to have heard several quarrels between Lucius and Thranduil, never felt that Lucius was an "elven servant" who could be treated at will.
It was impossible for Ha Dien to command these two elves, but he couldn't let them just stand like this. For a moment, he was at a loss.
Seeing Hardyen's embarrassed expression, Lucius, who had been acting stupid before, knew that his initial goal had been achieved, so he didn't add any trouble to Hadyen, and offered to check and confirm the situation around him.
Hearing this, Ha Dien breathed a sigh of relief as if he had been pardoned.But in the blink of an eye, he saw Thranduy frowning slightly, looking at the back of Lucius walking away step by step.Obviously, from the Elf King's point of view, Lucius who "needs to be protected" obviously does not have the ability to be responsible for such a job alone.Ha Dien had just let go of his breath, and then he hung it up again.
Biting the bullet and ignoring Thranduil's displeasure, Hadion found a clean blanket from his luggage and laid out a resting place for Thranduil, and went back to study the things unloaded from the packhorse.
It has to be said that the luggage that Frann prepared for them was very detailed, but unfortunately the two elf guards did not know how to use it.
Hardion followed Thranduil all the way south, except on the boat, and in the hotel.Happened to miss these must-haves for camping in the wild.
And feeling the disgust in Hardion's eyes, Annis is also very innocent.Although he slept with Lucius in the wilderness many times, he was never the one responsible for sorting out a place.However, the latter fact is obviously a secret that cannot be revealed at the moment.
Annis knew Lucius had a better way of camping in the wild.But now, Lucius looked at them in a hurry, but didn't have the slightest intention to help. Obviously, he just didn't intend to reveal his cards.
The materials for the tent were picked out from the pack and spread out scatteredly on the ground, but it took a long time to see the prototype of a tent.When Lucius came back after scouting the environment around the campsite, he saw two elf guards in a hurry, while the elf king was sitting aside, already frowning.
Finally, with the help of Annis, Hadien managed to make four small tents.
After a late dinner, the four elves looked at each other in silence.The night ended after Lucius got into his tent first to rest.
As the night fell and dispersed again, the quiet night ended.Haden worried that the tent would collapse all night, and at the same time had to share the night guard work with Annis, finally fell asleep before dawn, and kept looking forward to the new day that would end the previous depression.
However, at dawn the next day, after waking up one after another to enjoy the breakfast cooked by Annis, Hardion found helplessly that the embarrassment continued.
******
After a few days' journey away from Sarn Gable, Hadien and Annis gradually got used to work like setting up tents.After all, it is an elf who has experienced hundreds or even thousands of years. If you want to master it seriously, it is not difficult to learn a human skill.It also happened that the weather was just right. Although it was still cold for several days, there was no extreme weather.After adapting to this rhythm, Hardion and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Lucius didn't think that a few days of inconvenience could change the stubborn elf king's mind, he still felt a little sorry for the elf guards getting better and better.
As usual, after dinner, Lucius would lean against the light of the campfire and study the map in his hand.While Annis is taking care of the bonfire, he is also thinking about what to prepare for breakfast the next day.When going out with Lucius, because of the existence of the warning spell, although he will keep watch at night, he doesn't need to be awake all night, he just rests next to the door of the tent and maintains the most basic vigilance.Doing this would not consume too much energy from Annis, so Lucius and Annis never took over the vigil.
But when it came to this trip, Lucius didn't care to try this way.But Hardion obviously put his treatment on the same level as Thranduil's, and prevented Lucius' proposal to take turns keeping vigil with them.In this way, in order to ensure that Annis can get up in time to prepare breakfast for everyone, Hadien will be on duty in the first half of the night.And while Lucius was studying the map, Hadien was almost ready to fall asleep early.
In fact, if it's just such a division of labor, Lucius doesn't think there will be any trouble if he has an extra Haden on his journey.However, although Hadion was a useful bodyguard, Thranduil was not an existence that could be ignored.
The awkward atmosphere didn't just affect the two watching guards.
Usually when traveling together, no matter what the purpose is, Lucius will never be too indifferent to his companions, because this is basic etiquette.But at the moment, if he was asked to talk to Thranduil from time to time on the road without any grievances, it would be a bit forced.Lucius originally planned to treat Thranduil as air and just ignore it as much as possible.However, the existence of the Elf King is not something he deliberately wants to ignore, so he can really turn a blind eye to it.
Every time Lucius pretended to study the map seriously, in fact he didn't have much thought to stay on the map in his hand.Most of the time, he couldn't help but look at Thranduil sitting beside him with an imperceptible peripheral vision.
For the convenience of travel, except for Lucius, the other three elves wore human costumes specially prepared by Fran, in order to minimize the difference between them as elves and humans.This was also at the request of Lucius.
But even the most ordinary clothes, when worn on Thranduil's body, can have completely different effects from ordinary people.In the final analysis, it was Thranduil's temperament that could not be ignored that was at work.Even if the Elf King is just looking at the sky with blank eyes, because of his unique temperament, people will unconsciously want to fall into his thoughts and share everything that may trouble him.
Moreover, Lucius couldn't ignore another reason for the existence of Thranduil.
Lucius coughed lightly, and adjusted the map in his hand.Haden, who was used to thinking about everything in advance, was unconsciously attracted by the wizard's movements, and wanted to check with Lucius about the next day's schedule before going to bed.
However, just as Hardion turned his gaze to Lucius, he turned away in embarrassment.At this moment, he found that Annis also looked at him with the same expression.
The two elf guards couldn't help but smiled wryly at each other.
The Elf King was staring at Lucius again.
The author has something to say: this time it's time for the update, but by the way, I rewritten the previous chapter.If you don't understand it, you probably need to go back and read the previous chapter again.
