Chapter 0219 Winter is Coming (Ask for subscription, there are more)
Arya ducked her head to avoid the punch and ran forward with all her might.
Bang!
She was kicked in the ass, and she almost fell forward.
The forward momentum of the run well alleviated the attack power of the kick behind him, and although he was embarrassed, he did not fall, and he also broke away from the interception of the other three.
Meow!
The black kitten's helpless cry sounded, and it fled back into the alley.
Arya stopped suddenly, and at the mouth of the alley, there were many people, one of whom was riding on a tall horse and looked at her with a smile.
It's Uncle Edmure!
His green cloak stood out, and the silver trout clasp grabbed it and sparkled it.
"Uncle, save me!" Arya was overjoyed and quickly ran over.
A metallic muffled voice came with a rumbling feeling of oppression: "Arya, how are you doing?"
A giant-like burly man spun out and appeared on the front of the alley. Although he was behind Edmure, he was much taller than Edmure.
It's the Magic Mountain!
"Magic Mountain!" exclaimed Arya.
In the town of Earl Harroway, it is the Magic Mountain that saves Arya's friend Mikay, an apprentice butcher from Winterfell, whose father is the butcher of House Stark.
"Arya, look at you, what are you chasing cats for?" said Edmure with a frown.
Arya was as dirty as a little beggar, and she wasn't wearing the clothes of a noble lady - you couldn't have caught a cat in silk.
Arya's leather was covered with scratches from the kitten's sharp fangs and claws.
There are also a lot of scratches on her hands, and if you lift the sleeves of her arms, you can see those 'achievements'.
"I'm learning to dance, if I don't catch a cat, the teacher won't teach me to dance!"
"Cat catching, dancing, fooling around!" Edmure retorted.
"It's sword practice!" said Magic Mountain, "Arya's dancing is sword practice. Julie, Zeli, Bernie, don't come up and apologize to Arya!"
Arya said, "Uncle, you saw me on the street and deliberately asked someone to embarrass me?"
"It's not me, it's the Magic Mountain!" Edmure said, "It's the Lord of the Magic Mountain who saw you and said that you were chasing the cat, but I didn't believe it, so we chased after you! ”
Julie Clegane walked up and stretched out her hand to Arya: "Hello, Miss Arya, I'm Julie Clegane, and Lord Magic Mountain is my father. ”
"Humph!" Arya doesn't have a crush on Julie.
Julie regained her peace, but once she turned her face, she was murderous and terrifying. Moreover, she also kicked Arya.
Moshan smiled, "Julie, say sorry to Arya. ”
"I'm sorry, Miss Stark. Julie said lightly, without the slightest apology in her tone. After saying that, she didn't care about Arya's stinky face, walked past Arya, walked out of the crowd, turned over her horse, and ran towards the street.
On the street ahead, at the intersection of Sister Silent and Steel Street, Lady Jane's carriage was still waiting there.
"Hello, Miss Stark, I'm Zeligerda, and you call me Zeli, and my masters call me that. The tall and stout woman bowed and apologized, "I just asked our master Sir Gregor to play a little game with you, and Miss Stark is so quick that I didn't even touch the corner of your clothes." ”
"You're stupid!" said Arya, smugly.
"Arya, watch out for your politeness. "Edmure himself wasn't particularly polite, but in Arya's presence, he was serious.
Edmure was embarrassed by her filthy and impolite Arya, damaging his count's face and the Stark family's honor. I don't know how my brother-in-law Ed will scold Arya when he sees her like this. Arya's governess, Sister Modan, should also be dismissed, and that dance teacher should also be damned, so that Arya must catch a cat before she can practice dancing.
Arya was not afraid of her uncle, who had a stern and cold face, she was not afraid of anyone, except her father.
Bernie removed his mask and smiled, "Respectful and beautiful Miss Stark, you are more agile than a cat, more slippery than an eel, I'm Bernie, it was just a joke, please Miss Stark forgive me for being a fool." ”
"Bernie, I should have guessed it was yours!" Arya chuckled.
She and Bernie had met in the town of Earl Harroway, and she had spoken to Bernie and played a game of throwing stones for a while, and Bernie had a lot of fun, and it was he who came forward to testify to the queen and Prince Joffrey who saved Mikay. He also suffered a lot to save people, and was thrown to the ground by the magic mountain and slapped in the face.
The slap on the Magic Mountain was not so pleasant! His face was so swollen that Arya couldn't bear to look at it.
So Arya was picked up by Edmure and rode with him, and they all returned the way they came, to the streets of Sister Silent Street, where they met Lady Jenny, who was waiting there.
Magic Mountain noticed that on the other side of the street was the majestic gate of the long-decayed Firemancer's Guild, which had been neglected for a long time. The black gate, like black steel, is closed and carved with a burning pattern of green wildfire flames. The door has not been cleaned for a long time.
The group turned onto the main street to the Red Fort: King's Road.
There were many carriages blocking the road ahead, and flags of the major families were flying high, some from Dorne, some from the North, some from Storm's End and the Riverlands, and all sorts of animal motifs were displayed in the wind.
There was a golden robe blocking the road in front, and it was ordered that all the nobles who came to compete in martial arts should camp in the martial arts school field by the Heishui River, and along the city wall of the King's Gate, the general territory of the nobles in each region had been divided.
Edmure said, "Magic Mountain, what are we going to do?
The wagons and ox carts of the major families crowded the King's Road, and there was no end in sight.
"The hotel in the city is full, let's go to the martial arts school first, set up camp and settle the soldiers, and let's enter the Red Fort tonight." ”
"I brought a lot of gifts for the King and the Prime Minister. Edmure shook his head.
"We also brought gifts, mainly for Her Majesty the Queen. "It seems that everyone has brought a lot of gifts for the king and queen, just like us, so let's camp outside the city first." ”
So, the group turned around, took the seafood avenue, the common people called it the mud avenue, crossed the fish market, went out from the seafood gate, and followed the riverside avenue of the Heishui River to arrive at the martial arts field.
The common people call the seafood door the mud door.

Night. Red Fort. Prime Minister's Tower.
Prime Minister's Study.
Ed sat down and motioned for the mountain to sit down as well.
"Edmure said, you must come to see me. Thank you for sending a few bags of snow salt, somen noodles, and ...... Belch...... Chopsticks? The wooden stick is called chopsticks. ”
"Yes, chopsticks. ”
"Well, thank you, Sir. What did you want to say to me?"
"I'm Lord Edmure's brother-in-law, and you're also his brother-in-law, so the Magic Mountain and the Stark family are also relatives, and it is only right for me to meet you in this name, even if I am seen by the Red Cloak of the West, I have an excuse. Lord Eddard, do you believe in the Great Prophecy?"
"I never believed in the great prophecies of priests, shamans, priests, monks, etc., because they were all lies. Ed said flatly.
"Oh, isn't the Lord in awe of the Old Gods?"
The Northern Frontier is the only place in the Seven Kingdoms that believes in the Old Gods, and the people of the Northern Territory do not believe in the Seven Gods.
"Does the faith of the people of the North have anything to do with Sir Gregor?"
Ed is full of wariness and hostility towards the Magic Mountain, and he doesn't hide it well. The Magic Mountain sees this very clearly.
Magic Mountain decided to get straight to the point.
"My lord, I know the cause of your death in Jonne Arryn, and I advise you to stop, it will do the Stark family good. ”
Ed was stunned, and a chill rose in his heart.
"Oh, Lord Tywin told you to threaten me, Lord Tywin is afraid of me, why is he afraid of the cause of Jon Arryn's death?"
"It's not Lord Tywin who sent me to threaten your lordship, it's me who came to your lordship, and I want to tell you a big prophecy. ”
"Humph!" Ed snorted, he never believed in any prophecy, "What big prophecy?"
"Winter is coming, my lordship. ”
Ed's face changed suddenly.
Winter is coming, it is the sacred motto of the Stark family, passed down from generation to generation!
