Hello everyone, I'm coriander!
The last issue talked about the participation of forces and important people in the final Alliance War, as well as Sauron's loss of the Rings and his escape to the East, the Lord of the Rings passed to Bilbo, after 60 years, Bilbo has reached old age, and he often misses the experience of his youth and the friends who fought together. On the day of Bilbo's birthday celebration, Gandalf came to visit again.
Gandalf also came to Bilbo's 111th birthday celebration, a day of coming-of-age ceremony for Frodo's 33-year-old. Gandalf was very popular in the Shire, and it was said before that Gandalf would often come to the Shire to set off fireworks. In the original book, Gandalf was erudite and had a deep understanding of spells, and was often mentioned as the spells of fire and light, such as spitting out smoke rings of various shapes, setting off fireworks, escaping with dazzling light, knocking down half-orcs with light waves, casting spells to ignite pine cones to attack wolves, and so on.
Gandalf crossed the summer tun and came to Bilbo's house, and when the old man met, Bilbo was full of excitement, embraced Gandalf with tears in his eyes, and happily invited him into the house. Gandalf also missed this cozy cottage, after all, this is where the Lonely Mountain Operation began. After 60 years, every ornament and furniture in front of him is still so familiar, and although Bilbo is 111 years old, Gandalf still feels that he has not grown old.
The life expectancy of hobbits is generally between 90-100 years old, before only the old Tucker (Bilbo's grandfather) lived to 130 years old, and Bilbo is now 111 years old, which can only be explained because of the effect of the ring, so that his life span was extended.
In the following chat, Bilbo said that he wanted to take a long vacation to leave the Shire, and had decided that he would never return to the Shire; he also said that if he said to Frodo, he would go with him, and so on. Many people here are very confused, what is the matter?
Bilbo Baggins shares the dual lineage of the Baggins and Tuckers—the comfortable optimism of the Baggins family and the courage and adventurous spirit of the Tuckers. Ever since he returned from lonely mountains, he has always missed the people and things in his entire journey. When he was old, he still wanted to see the wilderness again, look at the mountains, and then quietly write his story. So where would he most like to go? That's Rivendell at the foot of the Misty Mountains. Bilbo fell in love with Ulbo when he first arrived at Rivendell, and Elrond welcomed Bilbo to stay. Later, after crossing the lonely mountain and being stimulated by Thorin's words, when he was ready to go back, he also said that he was going back to Rivendell, not Charles.
Since then, a seed has been planted
As night fell, Bilbo's birthday party began, and families gathered, including Baggins, Bofen, Tucker, Brandy Deer, Digger, Fat Boy, Hole Digger, Borger, Bandage, Badger House, Strongman, Trumpet and Proud Foot. What kind of family names are these!
Gandalf also began a fireworks display to create an atmosphere. Bilbo's happiest thing is to tell the children about his unforgettable experience. At the banquet, two troublemakers, Meriadok Brandy Deer and Periglin Tucker, secretly play with Gandalf's fireworks, almost causing a catastrophe (this is not included in the original book). Who are these two hobbits? What do they have to do with Frodo Baggins? Let's take a quick look.
First of all, let's introduce the protagonist Frodo Baggins, who was born on September 22, 1368 in the Shire calendar, his father was from the Baggins family, his mother was from the Brandy deer family, they both drowned in a boating trip, little Frodo was raised by his mother's family, and in 1389 the Shire calendar, Bilbo Baggins adopted Frodo at the age of 99 and brought him back to Hobbiton to live together. Bilbo was Frodo's mother's cousin and his father's distant cousin, so Bilbo was Frodo's distant uncle. Coincidentally, Bilbo and Frodo still had the same birthday.
Commonly known as Merry, Mériaddoch Brandy deer is the only son of Sacdock Brandy Deer, a wealthy and well-respected family that lives in the buckland east of the Brandy River. The brandy deer family was a descendant of Buka, the first governor of the Shire. Frodo's uncle is Merry's grandfather, which means that Frodo is Merry's uncle. It's a good relationship.
Pippin and Merry
Perigreen Tucker, commonly known as Pippin, was the great-great-grandson of The Elder Tucker. Bilbo Baggins was the grandson of the elder Tucker, and Pippin's grandmother was also Baggins, so Pippin should have called Grandpa Bilbo, Cousin. Pippin's father and Merry's mother are brother and sister, so Pippin is Merry's cousin. Just ask you around the halo?
These relationships are really brain-burning! Let's sum it up: Bilbo is Frodo's uncle, and Frodo is Merry and Pippin's uncle.
Just live in that tun, a native of that
Next, the old Bilbo took the stage to speak in the applause of everyone, thinking that he could say something happy, but who knew, it became a farewell speech. After saying the last sentence "Go now." Good bye! After that, Bilbo put on the ring and disappeared in front of everyone's eyes, running home in stealth, and offending all his relatives before leaving. All this was seen in Gandalf's eyes, and he arrived at Bilbo's house early to wait for him. When Gandalf suggested that Bilbo leave the Ring behind, Bilbo suddenly became vicious and shouted at the Ring of The Ring, and at the moment he was like a grunt.
I became you
Because of Bilbo's stubbornness, the two quarreled, Gandalf once again used the domineering president mode to calm Bilbo, frightening Bilbo panicked, only then did he wake up and hug Gandalf like a child, Gandalf came to a "head-touching kill", and the atmosphere instantly became very harmonious. Bilbo picked up his prepared bag, dropped the Ring, said a deep goodbye to Gandalf, and thought of a perfect ending to his story before leaving. Bilbo was the first to renounce the Supreme Precepts, and as a former ordinator, he eventually went to the West.
Gandalf went back to the house just to pick up the ring, but in an instant he saw Sauron's eyes, and he was so frightened that he hurried back, sitting quietly by the fire alone and thinking. At this time Frodo came to look for Bilbo, and when he entered the door, he saw that a ring had fallen to the ground, and he picked it up, and Gandalf saw that Frodo was holding the ring in his hand, and it was as if he had seen the savior. Gandalf wrapped the ring in an envelope, handed it to Frodo, and instructed him to hide the ring. Gandalf then hurried away from the Shire, ready to find answers to some things.
In fact, there are still some content in the original film that is not shown, although it does not affect the main plot, but I still want to add it. Gandalf first left for three years, came back to see Frodo once, and then for the next year or two, he appeared from time to time. But he never mentioned what he was busy with, and only cared about Frodo's health and behavior. Then it disappeared for nine years! When Frodo was 50 years old, suddenly one day Gandalf appeared again! It turned out that Gandalf had been investigating the ring for more than a decade after Bilbo's departure.
Where has Gandalf gone all these years? What exactly happened to the investigation, we will talk about it next time!
