When the two Calmen soldiers at the front of the column saw Tillian's outfit, they thought he was a tykan or a prince, and they had two armed attendants with them.When the Kalemen soldiers saw them standing upright on the road, they stopped and saluted him with their spears raised."
Oh, my sir," said one of them, "we take these dwarfs to work in the mines of Tisrock, Calmen, where he may live forever. ”"The great god Tash is above, and they all seem to be very obedient."
King Tillian said.Then, suddenly, he turned towards the dwarfs.One out of every six of them was carrying a torch, and by the light of the fire, he could see that the bearded dwarfs were all staring at him with that cold, stubborn look."
O dwarf, has Tisrock fought a great war and taken over your land," he asked, "are you so willing to go to the salt pit of Pugrahan to die" The two Calmen soldiers looked at him in amazement, but the dwarfs all replied, "This is Aslan's order, it is Aslan's order."
It sold us.How can we do anything to rebel against Aslan?"
"It's actually a conspiracy by Tisrock," someone added, and spat out, "I want to meet him." ”"Shut up, dog," the soldier leader scolded."
See," said King Tilian, pushing the confusion into the light, "all this is a lie.Aslan didn't come to Narnia at all.You have all been deceived by the ape, and this is what it has brought out of the stable to show you, and you see clearly. ”Now, they can get closer to it and take a closer look.The dwarfs saw the truth enough to surprise themselves: why they were so easily deceived in the first place, and they shouldn't have been fooled.The lion's fur had become quite dirty during its confinement in the stables, and it had just walked through the dark woods, scratching and bumping along the way, and the skin had become even more worn, and most of the fur on its shoulders had become tangled in a large piece; The part of the head, except for being pushed to the side, somehow shrank back to the back, so that anyone could easily see the confused and docile donkey face looking out from it.There was still some grass peeking out from the corners of its mouth, and when they brought it in, it had quietly nibbled on a little grass.At this moment, it was still muttering in a low voice, "It's not my fault, I'm not a smart donkey, I never said I was smart." ”For a moment, all the dwarfs stared at the bewildered ones in amazement.At this time, one of the soldiers felt that something was not quite right, and immediately said sharply: "My sir, are you crazy, what have you done to these slaves?"
and another soldier also said: "Who are you?"
At this time, their spears were no longer in a saluting posture, and both spears were lowered and ready for battle."
Say the passphrase."
The leader of the soldiers said."
This is my pass," said the king, drawing his sword, "and the light has been lifted, and the lie has been exposed."
Now protect yourself, villain, for I am Tilian, the king of Narnia. ”He swooped down on the leader of the soldiers with lightning speed.When Eustace saw the king draw his sword, he immediately drew his sword as well and lunged towards the other soldier.His face was pale, but I don't blame him for that.And he's lucky, people who fight for the first time are sometimes like that.He had forgotten all the techniques that Tillian had painstakingly taught him the previous afternoon, and slashed wildly with his sword, and I was not sure if he had closed his eyes, and a moment later, to his astonishment, he suddenly found that the Calemon soldier was dead, and fell at his feet.Although this was a great relief for him, it was also terrifying enough in such a short period of time.A second or two later than him, the king's battle was over, and another soldier was killed by him.Afterwards, he shouted to Eustace, "What about the other two Calmen soldiers" and the dwarfs had already eliminated the remaining two Calemon soldiers.Not a single enemy remained, and all of them were annihilated."
Well done, Eustace," praised King Tilian, patting Eustace on the back with satisfaction, and then shouted to the dwarves, "Hey, dwarfs, you are free, and tomorrow I will lead you to the rescue of all of Narnia."
Now, cheer Aslan three times," however, the final result was a bit pitiful, with only a few dwarfs about five giving feeble cheers and no movement at once, and a few others were growling angrily, mostly silent."
Don't they understand," asked Jill impatiently, "what the hell are these dwarfs, didn't you hear what the king said, it's all over, and treachery will never rule Narnia again."
Everyone can return to normal life, and everyone can live happily as before.Aren't you happy about that?"
After a minute of silence, a dwarf with a not very good-looking hair, and a beard as black as soot, said, "Miss, who are you?"
"I am Jill," she said, "and this is the same Jill who rescued King Rillian from magic, and this one is Eustace, who also saved the king with me."
A hundred years later, we are back from another world.Aslan sent us. ”The dwarfs grinned.They looked at each other, a mocking sneer on their lips instead of a pleasant one."
Well," said the black dwarf, whose name was Griff, "I don't know how others feel, but I think I've heard Aslan so many times that I'll probably not want to hear it again in my lifetime." ”"That's right, that's right," the other dwarfs whispered, "it's all designed, it's all a complete conspiracy. ”"What do you mean," King Tillian questioned.He had never been pale when he fought on the battlefield, but now he was pale.He thought it was going to be a wonderful moment, but he didn't expect it to be more of a nightmare now."
You must think that our dwarfs are too simple-minded, stupid, and foolish, you must think so," Griff said with a sneer, "We have been fooled once, and now you expect us to be fooled again, it is impossible."
We will no longer be exploited by the legends of Aslan.Look, look, big guys, take a good look at it, an old donkey with long ears" "Oh my God, you're driving me crazy," said King Tilian, "Which of us says it's Aslan, it's a trick to use this donkey to pass it off as the real Aslan, and we're just exposing its conspiracy, don't you understand?"
”"There's nothing to thank.We've been deceived once, and we don't plan to be fooled again. ”"I don't have any better impostor, do you think we're going to do that kind of thing," said Tillian angrily, "I'm only for the real Aslan," "so where is it, bring it out and show us," said some of the dwarfs as if heckling."
Fools, do you think I can put Aslan in my wallet," said King Tillian angrily, "what a remarkable man I am, to be able to make the great Aslan obey my call, he is not a tamed lion. ”The moment that last sentence came out, he realized that he had said the wrong thing.Sure enough, the dwarfs immediately began to repeat in a teasing, undulating tone: "Not a tamed lion, not a tamed lion." ”"That's what the other guys told us over and over again."
One of the dwarfs said."
Do you mean that you don't believe in the real Aslan," said Jill, "I've seen the real Aslan, and it was Aslan who sent the two of us to Narnia from another completely different world. ”"Ah," said Griff, with his big smile of hypocrisy, "they have taught you everything.You're reading from the book and memorizing your homework, isn't that so?"
"Uneducated fellow" King Tillian was very angry, "Are you going to talk nonsense in front of a young lady?"
"Speak civilly and politely, sir." ”The dwarf replied, "If you are King Tilian, you may as well tell you directly, I don't think we need any more kings."
You don't look much like him, though.Also, we don't need any more Aslan.From now on, we are to take care of ourselves and never salute anyone who touches the brim of our hats again.Do you hear me?"
said the other dwarfs, "and we're on our own for now."
There are no Aslan, no kings, and no more stupid and ridiculous stories about other worlds.The dwarfs fight only for the dwarfs themselves. ”With that, the dwarfs began to take their places, ready to march, intending to return to the place where they had been."
Little brutes," Eustace cried out angrily, "got you out of the salt mines, and you weren't even going to say a word of thanks," "Oh, we all know about that," Griff said, turning back, "you want to take advantage of us, and that's why you're going to rescue us."
If you want to play any tricks, you can play them yourself, we will not accompany you.Let's go, guys, let's go," and the dwarfs played a strange little march, marched away in procession to the rhythm of the drums, and walked majestically into the darkness.King Tillian and his friends watched the dwarfs leave.Afterwards, King Tillian simply said one word: "Go" and everyone continued on their journey.Everyone was silent.Confused still felt ashamed, and it really didn't quite understand what was going on.In addition to his dislike for the dwarfs, Jill was particularly impressed by Eustace's victory with the Kalemen soldiers, and was ashamed of his performance.For his part, Eustace's heart was still pounding.King Tillian and Jumbo walked together sorrowfully.The king put his arm on the unicorn's shoulder, and sometimes the unicorn rubbed the king's cheek with its soft nose, and they did not want to comfort each other with words, because it was very difficult to think of any kind of comforting thing to say.King Tillian never dreamed that the ape would make a fake Aslan that would make people no longer believe in the real Aslan.He had thought he was sure that when he explained the truth to the dwarfs and exposed the koala tricks to deceive them, the dwarfs would regroup and side with him.In that case, he could lead them to the stables the next night, and find out the truth about the donkey's bewilderment before all the wild beasts.Everyone will rebel and defeat the treacherous.Maybe then there's a scuffle with the Calemon soldiers.In the end, the whole incident will be resolved smoothly and have a happy ending.But now, it seems that he can't count on anything.He couldn't help but wonder how many Narnians would have the same attitude and the same ideas as the dwarfs, "I think someone is following us. ”Confused said suddenly.They stopped and listened.Indeed, behind them there was the sound of small feet thumping walking."
Who's there," cried the king."
I'm alone, Your Majesty."
A voice came, "It's me, Bokin the dwarf."
I just managed to avoid the other dwarfs.Your Majesty, I am on your side and Aslan on the side at the same time.If you can put a dwarven sword in my hand, I am glad to fight for the side of justice before it is all over. ”Everyone gathered around him, welcomed him, praised him, patted him on the back.Of course, a dwarf doesn't make much of a difference, but even a single dwarf is in some ways a welcome thing.All the companions were in good spirits and looked happy.However, Jill and Eustace's state of pleasure did not last long, as they had begun to yawn incessantly and become sleepy.They were so tired that they didn't want to think about anything but go to bed.It was the coldest hour of the night, dawn, and they returned to the tower.If there is a meal that has been prepared for them, they will be very happy to eat it, but getting a meal is cumbersome and time-consuming, so no one wants to get it.They drank some water from a stream, splashed it on their faces and washed it, and immediately collapsed on their beds.Bewitchment and Treasure thought they would be more comfortable outside.This may be appropriate, as a unicorn and a fat adult donkey can always make the room feel very crowded if they are both indoors.Although the dwarfs of Narnia are less than four feet tall, they are the toughest and most powerful of humans of their size; So, despite a busy day and a late night, Polgin woke up earlier than everyone else.He woke up full of energy and energy.He immediately took Jill's bow and arrows and went outside to shoot a pair of turtledoves and returned.He then sat down on the doorstep and plucked the turtledove, chatting with Treasure and Bewitchment.This morning, the bewilderment looked and felt so much better.Jewel, as a unicorn, was the noblest and most beautiful of all the beasts, and was very kind to the dwarf, and talked to him about things that they could both understand, such as grass, sugar, hoof maintenance, and so on.By the time Jill and Eustace yawned and rubbed their eyes as they stepped out of the tower, it was almost half-past ten.The dwarf taught them about a large collection of Narnia weeds, called Wild Fresni, which looked a lot like our sorrel, but tasted good when cooked.A little butter and pepper would be perfect, but they don't have that.That way, add a little of this, a little more of that, and they've got a delicious dish for their breakfast or dinner, whatever you want it to call.King Tillian went a little farther into the woods with an axe and brought back some branches for firewood.When the dish is stewed, especially when it is almost ready, the flavor wafts out is very sweet, and the overflowing aroma is simply mouth-watering, as if it has been boiled for a long time.King Tillian found a complete set of dwarf equipment for Pokin: chain mail, helmet, shield, sword, sword belt, and dagger.He then examined Eustace's scimitar, and found that Eustace, after killing the Calemon soldiers, had casually put the blood-stained scimitar into its scabbard.King Tillian rebuked him for this, and told him to clean and polish his weapon.During this time, Jill kept walking around, sometimes stirring the pot, sometimes looking enviously at the donkeys and unicorns grazing leisurely.Many times that morning, she wished she could eat grass too.However, when the fragrant dishes were served, everyone felt that the wait was worth it, and besides, after a circle of people had distributed them, there was a second serving.Everyone has an open belly and is well fed.After this, three humans and a dwarf came to the doorstep and sat down, and the two four-legged creatures lay facing them, and the dwarf had the permission of both Jill and King Tillian to light his pipe.Then King Tillian spoke, "Hey, friend Pokin, I think you probably have much more information about the enemy than we do, so tell us everything you know."
First of all, I want to know what kind of story they made up about my escape. ”"Your Majesty, they have concocted a treacherous story of elaborate design," said Pogin, "it was the cat Ginger who told you, and most likely it made it up.Your Majesty, this Jinge, if cats are cunning, then it is the representative.It claims that as it passed by the tree where the villains had bound His Majesty, it heard the abbreviated title of you, and you were growling, cursing, and cursing Aslan.I don't want to repeat those unbearable words.It said these things, and it seemed serious and appropriate.You know, if a cat is willing, it can say everything in a high-sounding way.Then, as Ginger had spoken, Aslan himself suddenly appeared in a flash of lightning and swallowed His Majesty whole in one bite.All the beasts trembled and trembled when they heard this story, and some of the timid ones fainted with fright on the spot.Of course, treachery followed suit.Come on, treacherous, and see how Aslan treats those who don't respect him, take this as a warning to all of you.And so the poor beasts, who were in a miserable situation, wept and wailed, and said, "Yes, yes."
Therefore, the result of His Majesty's successful escape did not make the beasts think about whether there were some loyal friends who came to your aid, but made them more afraid and obedient to the treachery. ”"What a cruel and wicked strategy," said King Tilian, "King, then, must have been involved in the ape's evil plan. ”"Your Majesty, so far, this matter has been reversed, and what should be further explored is whether Treacherous is allowed to participate in Kinge's strategy."
The dwarf replied, "You must know that nowadays the treacherous is drunk and drunk.I am convinced that it is highly likely that it is Ginger or Lishda, the leader of the Kalemen soldiers, who are now operating this plot.And I think that the rumors that Ginger has spread among the dwarfs are mainly due to the fact that they have spoken too badly about your escape.I'll tell you why.The night before, at the end of a terrible midnight meeting, I had just walked a short distance on my way home when I suddenly found myself in a daze that I had forgotten my pipe.That pipe was a really good thing, it had been with me for many years, and it was my favorite thing, so I hurried back to get it back.But before I had reached the place where I had been sitting, it was pitch black, when I heard a cat meow, and the voice of a Kalemen, who said, "Here, speak softly."
As soon as I heard the movement, I immediately stood there motionless as if I had been frozen.These two guys, Ginger and Tekan Leshda, they called him that.Noble Tykan, said the cat Ginger in his soft voice, I just want to know exactly if the two of us have the same intentions for today's statement that Aslan is no better than Tash.Undoubtedly, the wisest of all cats, you have understood what I mean.You mean, Ginger said, that neither Tash nor Aslan existed.Any knowledgeable, knowledgeable person understands this.Tykan said.In this way, we can understand each other's thoughts.The cat purred and said, "And you, like me, are you starting to hate that tailless ape, which is a stupid, ignorant and greedy beast?"
The other said, but for now we're going to do something with it.You and I must secretly get everything ready for that treacherous to do our thing.And it would make things better, wouldn't it be Ginger, to involve some of the more knowledgeable people of Narnia in our plans, and find the right ones to use for themselves.Because the beasts that truly believe in Aslan can be transformed at any time, and once the ape's deception is exposed, they will certainly be transformed.But those animals who don't care about the gods of Tash or Aslan, and who only see their own interests, when Narnia becomes a province of Calmen, Tisrock will give them a rich reward, and they will surely support us.Great cat, said the leader of Calmen, but you should be cautious when deciding on the candidate, and you must not be sloppy. ”In the process of the dwarf's narration, it seems that the sky is beginning to change.It was still sunny when they first sat down, and now they were already shaking with bewilderment.Jumbo shook his head restlessly.Jill looked up."
The sky is already overcast," she said."
And it's so cold."

Confused said."
The Lion King is up, it's cold enough," said King Tilian, and then sighed into his hands, "What is this stench to me?"
"Oops," Eustace gasped, "it seems to have come from something dead."
Is there a dead bird in the vicinity, why didn't we notice it before it was somewhere" After a moment of exploration, Jumbo quickly rolled over and got up, pointing in one direction with its horns."
Look," it cried out, "look there, look, look," and all six of them saw it, all of them in shock.t1706231537:
