"Stop! Stop! We are the nobles of the West! We are Duke Tywin's people! We are just passing through here, why do you want to kill us?" Adam shouted when he saw that the wildling leader could speak Common Language. 阑
However, in addition to a circle surrounding Adam, and the people headed by the savage leader smiling and looking at what they had on them for value, there were still constant shouts of killing coming from the surrounding fog.
"People from the rich man in the West passed by my territory without notifying me in advance. This is against the rules." After the savage leader finished speaking, he looked at the blond beauty in his arms.
Cersei, who was so disgusted, turned her head away to no avail. The wild man's hands were extremely strong. After licking her, he held her body and brought his head to hers and took a deep breath.
Cersei couldn't stand the stench of the wildling leader, so she roared: "Let me go immediately when you know Tywin. I am Lord Tywin's daughter, Cersei Lannister!"
"Haha, you think so? Now you are my property, and all of you are the property of our tribe!"
"Oh~~~"
As soon as the savage leader finished speaking, his men all raised their axes and started shouting.阑
Adam was silent during the cheers. He was thinking about what to talk about with these wildlings who were robbing their homes. The territory of the Riverlands was useless. The wildlings were not surprised after Cersei announced her name. They should not know it yet.
Cersei is nominally dead.
After thinking about it, Adam followed the leader's words and said: "The woman in your hand is Tywin's daughter. She is a noble and you cannot touch her. We can redeem her with money!"
The savage leader casually cut a piece of cloth with an ax from the corpse at his feet, and wiped his beloved ax in his hand. When it came to the bargaining session, his subordinates would not interrupt at this time, and the scene became quiet.
Robbery and kidnapping are indistinguishable. The two businesses have a lot in common. The savages have robbed the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms for thousands of years and know that they have rules for spending money to redeem important people.
"Stop! Bring everyone here who is still alive!" the leader issued the order in tribal language.
Adam saw the savages disperse and just wanted to relax his body that had been in a defensive posture. A group of savages threw ropes from behind them. Each lasso landed on the soldiers accurately. The rope in the distance was pulled, and in conjunction with other
The savages rushed up, but Adam was knocked out of his hands without a few struggles, and everyone became prisoners.
The people from the West were gradually led by the savages to the muddy ground in front of the leader.
The long sword in the hunting dog's hand disappeared somewhere. He was brought here while tied with a rope. Without saying a word, his knees softened and he knelt down. This was a swamp that the other party was familiar with. The number of people was at an absolute disadvantage, so he could escape.
Being eaten by a crocodile and unable to reason with the savage, the hunting dog knew that the only chance of survival was not to anger the savage again, to pay the ransom honestly or to wait for someone to rescue him.
The team that was originally close to two hundred people now has only about thirty people left kneeling in the mud. This does not include Cersei and her five maids who were not killed by the wildlings. The rest were stripped of everything they had on them.
The corpses were thrown on the spot, and the savages with their trophies hanging on their bodies gradually moved closer to the leader. The crocodiles that had already climbed ashore and formed a circle immediately rushed up and started enjoying the fresh meal.
"Fuck!" The hunting dog that had been paying attention to the savage leader cursed.
He saw seven or eight people with different looks and clothes coming over. The hunting dog recognized four of them. They were the hunters who had been humiliated by Duny at the inn. The savage leader had given him a long gun and a Western set of weapons.
Human clothes.
The information provided by the four hunters was very good, and the savages gained a lot. The savage leader was not stingy and gave them the rewards they deserved.
Several savages from other tribes were also rewarded by the leader. After gathering his men and arriving at the inn, he was already two days late. Tracking the people from the Western Region, he encountered heavy fog and rising water, and could not find the people soaking in the inn.
I had already lost track of the footprints in the water, but I met some people from friendly tribes who had a conflict with the people from the West, and I happened to lead them the way.
"You'd better let us go, or my father's army will hang you all on the outer wall of his castle!" Lan
No one paid any attention to Cersei's shouts, except for the one who was kneeling not far away from her. His hands were still trembling with fright, and his lips were pale. After hearing this, Duny's face gradually improved.
After the spoils were distributed, the leader and his dozens of warriors walked to Adam again.
The leader looked down at Adam, randomly selected one of the kneeling people for the warrior to bring to him, pointed his ax at Adam and asked: "Noble?"
"No, he is an ordinary knight."
As soon as Adam finished speaking, there was a flash of cold light, and the warrior behind him chopped off the soldier's head with an ax and fell to the ground.
"Not worth it, next one."
Professional people do professional things, and worthless meat tickets are a waste of food. The savage leader is very efficient in doing things.阑
Adam had heard about the savages in the Western Region, and now his first interaction with them made him understand that the savages were not as straight as nobles. Next, in order to save more people's lives, he slightly raised their status and value.
.
Duny could no longer stand up. Savages hated this kind of coward the most. They dragged him by the collar arrogantly, kicked him down and laid him down in the mud.
The savage leader stopped asking questions now. He pointed his ax at Adam and he spoke.
"He is a noble. The heir to the Suffield family in the West, he is valuable!" Adam paused when talking about the nobles. Unlike Cersei, Duny is now the heir to the West and Adam cannot afford to offend.
Adam thought to himself that if Donny's identity was not exposed, he would at most be a slave to the savages and suffer a little punishment. After paying the ransom, he could go home soon. Once his identity was exposed, Donny, that is, Joffrey, would definitely die!
Adam had heard the conversation between Tywin and his brother when they were at Casterly Rock. Now the news of the king's serious illness was known to the whole country. The first in line of succession was Stannis and the second in line of Renly. Their respective supporters wanted to
The issue of the throne has become an undercurrent.
If Duny appears again, he was previously identified as a liar pretending to be a deceased prince in King's Landing in order to eliminate Duny's identity. Knowing the inside story, Renly, who was tricked back then, will definitely be able to hunt down Duny himself. Who can
We can't save him, because Renly can already control the dragon to fly in the sky and throw fireballs.阑
"You."
The leader leaned down and slapped Adam's face.
"Go back and tell the rich man Tywin that his daughter and these nobles will stay with me for only a month! I will release them when the ransom is paid, and after time I will kill them and cook them!"
"Which tribe are you from? Where will I find you when I come back?"
"North of Mingyue Mountain, the Milk Snake Department!"
After speaking, the leader carried the ax and went home with his warriors with the harvest, leaving only a pair of underpants for Adam.
The conflict ended with the sound of crocodiles chewing bones. The savages only let Adam go back alone. Whether a month is enough is his own business. Lan
The men among the captives had their hands and necks tied with ropes, and the ropes were used to tie five people into a group. When climbing up a steep mountain, this way of connecting people can effectively control the escape of the prisoners. Several people running together can easily get hung up on the ropes.
Not to mention reaching the tree, if one person falls off the cliff, everyone else will be affected. They will either pull him up or fall together to death.
~~~
At this time, more than ten kilometers away, Robb and his team drove seven or eight freight carriages on the King's Road heading north.
Qiao La, who was driving, looked around: "When I passed by here in the early years, there were crocodiles in the water on both sides. Why are they all gone today?"
Robb: "Maybe it's because of the rising water level, or maybe it's because we're digging holes for the winter."
There were three people sitting at the front of the car, namely the coachman Jorah, the passengers Robb and his young wife Saran Farman.
The freight carriage was open-topped, and the group of people were wearing relatively thin clothes.阑
Feeling Saran holding his hands together next to him, Robb took out a thick fur coat from the carriage box and handed it to his wife: "It's getting cold, so wear more clothes."
Saran, who was wearing a fur coat, retracted her head into the collar, revealing only her eyes and golden hair. She rubbed her face against the white fur collar, feeling the smoothness and softness of the fur. This furry feeling made her very comfortable: "
After living in Tyrosi for more than half a year, I have almost forgotten what it feels like to wear thick clothes."
"Here you go." Robb also found a piece of thick clothing for Jorah.
"Thank you." Jorah put on his clothes and asked again: "Robb, do you think Duke Eddard will support Duke Werther's proposal this time?"
Robb thought for a while: "There is no other way. We can't watch the people in the territory starve to death. I don't know what the reaction will be on the Great Wall."
Most of the people in the north are descendants of the ancestors, and many older people still adhere to the ancient tradition: they refuse to leave their homeland until they die. After a group of people come to farm in Tyrosh, there are no subsequent ships. Witte suggested
Ed released the news of the vampires climbing over the Great Wall as soon as possible and caused them to move away by creating panic.
"You know Robb, my sister Daisy has lived in Tyrosh for a long time. She is now an officially appointed knight by Nymeria. During this time, she has also been persuading me to let the people from Bear Island go south.
." Jorah said what she wanted most in her sister's tone. LAN
Different from before, Bear Island now has the largest fleet in the northwest sea. Jorah, who has been doing business for a long time, often pays attention to news from various places. This time he did not go home for more than a year, staying with Tyrion, Veidt and others to let his
There have been many changes in my thinking.
Jorah is currently the one who most hopes among the northern lords to lead his people south. When winter really comes, the land in the north will not be cultivated at all, and the waters of Bear Island will also be frozen. If the bachelor's calculation is not correct, the cold winter will
It will last for ten years. If we do not move south, the population in the north will be reduced to one-tenth of the current level.
Jorah is a vassal of Eddard. To a larger extent, the citizens of Bear Island also belong to the Duke of the North. Just like some people moved to the land of Tyrosh before, if Eddard does not issue an order, even the earl will lead them without permission.
It is considered a crime to leave people in the territory, and according to the law, you can be deprived of your noble title and beheaded.
"Robb, have you seen a vampire?" Saran was very smart. She had learned some news from Tyrosh when she was in King's Landing. She didn't ask Robb if he had any policies on vampires, but if he had seen him.
However, Saran can also guess and piece together the general information from Robb's few words.
Robb: "I haven't seen them with my own eyes, but I know all their weaknesses and how to kill them quickly."
"Did your teacher tell you?" Saran tilted her head and looked at Robb.
Robb nodded, thinking that Saran's age might not know what happened back then, so he explained to her in detail: Lan
"A few years ago during the attack on Tyrosh, my graduation ceremony was also held at the pre-war conference. At that time, Teacher Witte gave the famous Valyrian steel sword, the Dark Sister, to Ashara, and to me and Jon.
Each person has a magic book. Jon and I have read each other's books. The contents are all magic developed individually by the teacher according to our respective personalities and characteristics. In my book, there are also introductions and methods of dealing with various strange creatures.
."
"Vampires are written in the book? Then your teacher knew about this kind of thing in advance." Saran's current expression said that vampires were deliberately released by Werther.
Robb looked at her surprised face and laughed. He knew that his wife was very smart, but she was too young and inexperienced, so she couldn't think of many things. Robb reached out and pinched Saran's white face:
"Don't think wildly. In fact, there is nothing strange about this. In the past six months, you and Qyburn in King's Landing have become familiar with each other."
"There is always a dead skeleton following him around. It's very scary!" During his time in Tyrosh, Salan was most afraid of Qyburn, and stayed away every time he saw him.
"Hahaha." Robb and Jorah both laughed.
Senior magician of King's Landing Magic School: Qyburn. He is very talented. He is proficient in various magic theories but loves the magic of summoning the undead. There is always a skeleton soldier by his side to show off his power. Not only Saran, Qyburn's reputation can attract many people.
The little girl stopped crying.阑
After laughing for a while, Robb said seriously: "Summoning magic can communicate with other worlds. This is just a kind of magic, and humans are not the only ones who can do magic. You have seen children of the forest and dragons, and although the White Walkers outside the Great Wall
I've never seen it, but through the teacher's information and the children of the forest's dictation, the current consensus in the magic world is that they are also high-level magicians. So it's not surprising that they use magic to open up a certain field and summon monsters like vampires.
”
"So that's it, magic is really amazing." Saran sighed.
The world of magicians is extremely mysterious to ordinary people, like two independent circles. This is not because magicians are unwilling to share knowledge, but the most basic introductory knowledge that no one without magic can fully understand. More advanced knowledge of nature
I can’t understand.
Robb then put his head close to Saran's ear and whispered in a low voice. Soon Saran's fair face turned red, and Jorah, who was driving beside him, turned his head to the side, thinking that the two of them could no longer stand being lonely.
Saran didn't want to be misunderstood by Jorah and spoke: "Your teacher is really weird. The book specially tailored for you does not prohibit you from showing it to others. He also specifically writes in the prologue that it must be available to every holder of the book.
Your wife or husband should also remember: Is your teacher afraid that you will never have a child?"
