"There's nothing I can't believe. After all, I've seen dead people reborn with my own eyes, and brothers who have been together for more than ten years seem to have become different people in a short period of time."
Jon kept this piece of information in mind and replied meaningfully to Jegoheart.
As soon as she finished speaking, he clearly felt her lower body squirming backwards. Jon frowned and warned in a cold voice: "Stop your actions!"
"Don't be so sensitive, I just want to find a comfortable position to sleep."
With her back to him, Yegoxinte had a smile on her lips and answered seriously.
"You said before that other tribes gathered together, where are they?"
Seeing that Jegocent continued to twist, Jon continued to question her, trying to divert his attention.
"I think I said, change one question to another."
"Then ask!"
"I have nothing to ask. So, I'm going to sleep!"
Listening to Jegoheart's words that were obviously teasing him, Jon bit his lip and shouted angrily: "Don't move! Go to sleep!"
Seeing that he seemed really angry, Ye Gexin temporarily stopped twisting his lower body.
Shuo Shuo Shuo!
A few minutes later, the sound of clothes rubbing against each other sounded again, and Ye Gexinte continued to twist her lower body gently and rhythmically, as if dancing to the music.
"Are you still moving?"
"Did I? I didn't notice it!"
"Don't move anymore, have a good rest, and we'll be on our way early tomorrow morning."
"Are you sure? Why do I feel like you like me twisting my lower body very much!"
"Shut up!"
Jon and Jon interacted like a couple, adding some ambiguity to the dark cave.
…
Ta-ta-ta!
Boots stepped on the wet ground, making regular footsteps. Robb dragged a wooden box with one hand as he walked in the prison of Winterfell.
"His Majesty!……"
Because of the special nature of the prisoners in the prison, every few steps there was a fully armed Winterfell cavalry serving as a guard. As soon as they saw Robb approaching, they immediately saluted and greeted him.
"Have you considered it?"
Walking to the door of a prison, Robb looked through the window of the thick cell door and asked a woman inside who was curled up with her head bowed and her knees in her arms.
The woman raised her head when she heard the sound, her ordinary face exuding a heroic spirit. She did not answer, but stared at Robb with her cold eyes.
Yara Greyjoy, Theon's biological sister. After she was ambushed and captured alive, she has been imprisoned in Deepwood Castle for several months.
Her ironborn have long been released, and under the command of Theon, they have contributed to the attack on the Westerlands.
Robb knew that Yara's combat ability and commanding ability were stronger than Theon's. Killing her directly would do no good and cause a lot of harm. If she were to be released hastily, it would definitely have a negative impact on Theon's rule.
Therefore, even though Theon begged him several times, he has never agreed and has imprisoned Yara to this day. However, this time when he returned from Deepwood Castle, he brought Yara back to Winterfell along with the three leaves.
"Okay! I know your answer."
Seeing Yara's very obvious performance, Robb curled his lips and walked directly to the inner level of the prison.
In the innermost layer of the prison, Ye Zi and the other two were imprisoned here. In addition to being guarded by cavalry, Xue Feng was quietly lying down in the corner and taking a nap.
"The infection of the leaves and thorn wounds is more severe than the previous two days. If it continues, she will definitely die in a very painful way.
The wooden box in my hand contains Myr ointment from the Essos continent. It has a very good effect in fighting infections."
Robb entered the cell through the cell door opened by the cavalry guard. While talking and getting straight to the point, he removed the gag from Leaf.
Thorns and Vine are the names of the other two wooden dancers. After this period of friendly chatting and interaction with Ye Zi, Robb still obtained a lot of information.
A few days ago, Robb had changed his original goal of surrender to cooperation. He proposed that as long as the leaves worked for him for a year and provided explosive fruits, he would give them freedom.
One year is actually very short for the children of the forest who have a long life.
However, as a person defined by the Three-Eyed Crow as the person who will destroy the future, Ye Zi has a very strong resistance to Robb.
"Someone, bring the injured prisoner here!"
Seeing that Ye Zi was silent, Robb turned to the cavalry guards outside the cell and ordered.
A few minutes later, Wooddancer Briar was lying on a stretcher specially made by Robb's order, and was carried to Leaf's prison by two cavalry guards.
I saw Thorns lying on the stretcher bed, and his limbs were covered with small blood holes, but these blood holes had stopped bleeding and started to scar.
But there are still two long blood marks on her back. The flesh and blood around the blood marks are everted, and the top of the red flesh has suppurated, accompanied by a peculiar smell.
"hiss!"
Jingjing, who had been in a coma, seemed to feel a little cold, hissing in his mouth, and his body curled inward.
"Infections caused by trauma like this will worsen very quickly. If not treated in time, she will be tortured and die later. Fortunately, she is only a little chilly now and does not have a fever. Otherwise..."
Seeing the tears flashing in Ye Zi's eyes, Robb opened his mouth at the right time to achieve his goal.
"I can agree to your request. However, I want you to swear before the gods that the explosive fruit I made for you cannot be used on the Three-Eyed Crow, us, and other creatures north of the Great Wall."
In her previous life, Ye Ye, who regarded death as home and used explosive fruits to self-destruct to stop enemies, had a kind heart that loved life and cherished her companions. She didn't want Thorns to die in pain, so she turned to look at Robb and stated her conditions directly.
"I, Robb Stark, by all the gods in heaven..."
Hearing that Ye Zi finally relented, Robb immediately raised his hand and swore. After the oath, he smiled and continued to say to Ye Zi,
"Don't worry, I will only use these explosive fruits on the enemies in the south. After all, we humans like to kill each other the most!"
"Human, I don't want to hear what you are saying. I have agreed to your request, quickly treat the wounds of Thorns!"
Ye Zi was not interested in the second half of Robb's words at all, and she was a little eager to let Robb heal Thorns' injuries.
"No problem... You two carefully carry her back, and then apply these Myr ointments on her."
Robb nodded in agreement upon hearing this, and gave his order to the two cavalry guards next to him.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
A cavalryman took the wooden box containing Mil's ointment and placed it in the empty space of the stretcher. The two of them carried the stretcher back to the prison opposite.
"What materials are needed to make the explosive fruit? I will ask someone to prepare it now."
"It needs fire-burned earth, and then a kind of sawtooth-leaf grass..."
"These materials are simple, I will ask someone to prepare more. When the materials are ready, I will come to visit your production process."
Robb nodded in agreement and put the gag back on Ye Zi who was about to speak. He walked out of the cell, tickled Xue Feng for a while, and then walked briskly outside the prison.
Magic grenade, done!
Early the next morning after returning to Winterfell, after Sam's careful selection, the thirteen Wolf Guard candidates finally decided by Robb stood quietly in front of the kennel waiting early.
Without letting them wait too long, Robb took Xue Feng to the kennel. After Ye Zi agreed to cooperate yesterday, Robb tried to get Xue Feng to leave the prison and stop monitoring them in real time.
These children of the forest who cherished their companions did not make any noise.
"His Majesty!"
"Well, let's just go in and talk about it!"
After Robb nodded to the Wolf Guard candidates who greeted him, he directly opened the kennel door and walked in with Bloodwind.
Robb and his team walked into the kennel and closed the door. Without waiting for Robb to issue an order, the thirteen Wolf Guard candidates who had undergone strict formation training stood directly in a neat row, waiting quietly for him to speak.
After secretly nodding to their basic qualities, Robb said loudly to them directly: "The purpose of selecting you this time is to reorganize the Wolf Guard. Your homes are all near Winterfell, and you should have heard of the Wolf Guard.
Guard!"
"I heard it!"
After hearing what Robb said, the thirteen Wolf Guard candidates' eyes immediately lit up and they answered in unison excitedly.
"Well, the Wolf Guard is still quite famous in the North. However, you will go out more than them in the future. Even let the whole Westeros know. Because..."
Seeing their high morale, Robb nodded with satisfaction. While talking, he walked to the middle of the kennel and opened the doors of the two renovated wolf dens.
Woo, woo!
Nymeria and the Lady sobbed softly and walked out of the wolf den with soft and silent steps.
Behind them, thirteen wolf cubs, which were about the same size as the one-year-old Alaska in their previous life, were staring at the group of strangers with their yellow or green wolf eyes, their mouths full of warning whimpers.
"Because you will become a veritable wolf guard!"
Wow!
As soon as Robb finished speaking, the thirteen Wolf Guard candidates couldn't help but exclaim. However, because they were still in the queue, they did not dare to discuss it out loud, but the hot light in their eyes became stronger and stronger.
"You are allowed to discuss freely for a while to see which direwolf is more attractive."
"Wow! What a direwolf!"
"These are no ordinary direwolves. They may grow to be as huge as His Majesty's Bloodwind."
"Then does this mean that we can also fight on wolves in the future?"
"I like those five black-haired ones. They will definitely grow into very powerful big black wolves!"
As soon as the thirteen Wolf Guard candidates heard that Robb allowed them to discuss, they immediately gathered in small groups, pointed at the wolf pups, and started discussing very enthusiastically.
"Ahem, be quiet!"
After they discussed it for a while, Robb coughed slightly and spoke to calm down.
"Sam should have told you already, but I have to emphasize it again in the end. Joining the Wolf Guard means that you will receive great honor and bear corresponding responsibilities.
You will be my ace unit. No matter in terms of weapons, equipment or status, you will be the most advanced among all soldiers.
But at the same time, you will be the focus of the enemy's attention in the future, and the danger on the battlefield will be far greater than that of ordinary soldiers.
Finally, all your family members will move into the inner city of Winterfell. Even if you die heroically, they will receive proper care and placement.
Now, does anyone want to quit?"
"No!"
As soon as Robb finished speaking, the thirteen Wolf Guard candidates all answered loudly.
"Very good, now start choosing your partner. After choosing, you will live and fight with your respective direwolves. They will be your closest and most reliable partners.
So, who wants to choose first!"
"Your Majesty, my name is Will, and I want to come first."
A tall, burly soldier with brown hair, about twenty years old, immediately bravely raised his right hand to apply.
"Vell, right? I remember your name. Go up and reach out to pet the direwolf of your choice."
Robb left an impression on Will who dared to take the lead. He tilted his head and motioned for Will to come forward.
Woohoo!
As soon as Will took two steps forward, the huge wolf bodies of Nymeria and Lady immediately lowered themselves, bared their teeth and let out a rapid growl, as if they were about to launch an attack.
When Robb saw this, he immediately remembered Xue Feng, who was lying lazily in the corner as soon as he entered the kennel.
Ouch!
Bloodwind received Robb's message and immediately howled at Nymeria and the Lady. They heard Bloodwind's wolf howl and walked back and forth hesitantly.
On the way back to Winterfell from Deepwood Castle, Robb asked Ye Zi about their original purpose of coming to the kennel.
Her answer was that when replacing the heart tree in the godswood of Winterfell, the wooddancer, who was particularly close to animals, sensed the many direwolves in the kennels.
But when they arrived at the kennel, they found that the two female direwolves had a strong human smell. This meant that they had been tamed.
Ye Zi once heard the Three-Eyed Crow mention that the Man Who Destroyed the Future tamed direwolves to fight for him. So, she thought about bringing these direwolves back to the north of the Great Wall to weaken the Man who Destroyed the Future's fighting power.
So, she let the Wood Dancer vines use their abilities to revive the wildness in their hearts. When she was ready to return to the north of the Great Wall, she took them with her.
In the past few days, Nymeria and the lady, who were full of wildness, had once again surrendered to the king of the wolf pack after being severely repaired by Bloodwind.
So, after hesitating for a while, and finally being reminded by the wounds on their bodies that had not yet healed, they reluctantly glanced at their wolf cubs, then turned around and returned to the wolf den.
Woo, woo!
Ouch!
The thirteen wolf cubs originally wanted to follow their mother back to the wolf den, but Xue Feng stood up and roared, making them lie down obediently.
Seeing this, Weir knew that His Majesty's Blood Wind was assisting him. So he walked a few steps in front of a wolf cub with black fur and green eyes, and tentatively stretched out his right hand.
Woo!~~
When the little black wolf lying on the ground saw Weir's extended right hand, it immediately showed its already very sharp fangs and roared at him with a fierce look.
Weir, who was prepared to be bitten, was not frightened by it. He firmly placed his right hand on the head of the little black wolf covered with soft wolf fur.
Woohoo~~
The little black wolf roared at first and gradually became weaker. As Weir boldly began to stroke it from head to tail, it finally let out a comfortable hum.
When Robb saw this, he knew that the pair had successfully formed a team.
Don't look at these wolf pups, catalyzed by the blood bond, they grew from the size of a five-month-old dog pup to the size of a one-year-old Alaska in less than ten days.
But they are still wolf pups less than two months old, and with the help of Blood Wind, they are still relatively receptive to humans.
With Weir's successful demonstration, other Wolf Guard candidates came into contact with their own wolf pups one after another.
But one of the wolf guard candidates named Haihua, who was either nervous or excited, moved too much, scared the wolf cub he chose, and was bitten severely.
However, when his arm was bitten and blood flowed, he used his other hand to comfort the wolf cub, and finally the partnership was successful.
At this point, thirteen new Wolf Guards were born!
As they later train and fight with the direwolves, even if the wolf pups are not fully grown and cannot become wolf knights when they go south again, they will still have strong combat effectiveness by then.
Moreover, as time goes by, after these wolf pups are fully mature, the next time the wolf pack will increase exponentially, so will the number of wolf guards.
