149 The way outside the Seychelles

The troops walked out of the narrow exit of the Great Wall one after another, and then assembled at the foot of the Great Wall again. Top X Point 23 Little U says S

In the middle of the ranks, horses neighed, and supply vehicles crunched as they crushed against the hard ground. The knights gathered together for one last prayer before leaving.

And when all the troops were assembled, they officially set out, led by an old savage.

The destination of the trip was to the hill where the Three-Eyed Raven was, and according to what Charles had seen, and the divination of the red-robed woman, they had a rough description of the general location of the place. An old savage recognized the exact location of the location, not far from Fengsheng Gorge, a place called Shujiao Mountain.

……

"I remember peeing there before." Goni the old savage rode on horseback and followed Charles' side. As he spoke, the exhaled air swirled white in front of his chest, and a yellow beard around his mouth gradually grew white frost.

The Great Wall is cold enough, and the further north you go beyond the Great Wall, the cooler it gets.

The savages who had lived outside the fortress since they were children were not too unbearable for this, and the northern soldiers led by Charles and Melisandre were a little unbearable.

Less than half a day after they arrived, the soldiers were shivering on horseback one by one, their teeth chattering.

Surprisingly, Charles, who looked fine-skinned and tender-skinned, was not so affected, and although he was also wearing a heavy robe and plush coat, he looked quite calm, and turned his head to look around, his face full of energy.

"Why is he not afraid of the cold?" In the rear army, there were whispers of muttering.

"He's not an ordinary person, of course he's not afraid of the cold." Someone next to him responded, hugging his arms and trembling as he spoke.

"Then why is that red-robed girl not afraid of the cold?"

"Maybe it's not cold next to an adult?" The soldier said, looking ahead with a slight look of envy.

……

There were no real roads outside the fortress, and the army of more than 2,000 people staggered through the snow, forming a narrow line.

One, two, three......

Without incident, the team continued to move forward, crossing the plains at the foot of the Great Wall, entering the White Forest, and then building a bridge over a place called the Antler River outside the White Forest, and finally rushing to the Ghost Forest deeper outside the Fortress.

A black eagle always soars above the army, overlooking the army below and everything around it, occasionally chirping.

It was the "pet" of the old savage Goni. Or it's called a shape-shifting partner.

Goni had been sent by Manster, the king of the Outer Empire, to help them, after all, it was too passive to walk through the endless snow.

"Those white ghosts only appear at night, and the ghouls can pop up at any time."

On the way, the old savage Goni said so.

"You're always fighting them?" Charles looked at him, rubbing his face with his hands as he asked.

The child of the sun has a talent problem, he is not very afraid of the cold now, but he is just not very afraid, and it has not reached the point where he is not cold at all.

After a long journey, his face was already a little frozen. That's why a long-forgotten magic called the Smolder's Furnace came in handy.

The spell was quiet, and it was muttering all the way, and others couldn't hear what he was saying, but were more curious about the appearance of this man whose cheeks were always red.

The red-robed woman next to her noticed the abnormality, but she didn't pay much attention to it. Compared to Charles, the witch relied on the ruby at her Adam's apple, but she was not afraid of the cold.

……

"No, we've never confronted the White Ghost on our journey." The old savage replied to Charles' question, "But they have been following our butts, constantly sneaking up, and refusing to show up head-on." ”

As he spoke, he seemed to think of something unpleasant, and spat on the ground in indignation, but before he could hit the ground, he had frozen into ice, and fell into a crust of snow and rolled and sank.

"Not counting those who have fallen behind, hundreds of scouts we sent out have died."

……

The Great Wall reacted quickly, and the total number of casualties of the savages in this migration was more than 1,000 people, so Charles dared to take the initiative to attack people in such a big way.

Otherwise, in the face of tens of thousands, or even tens of thousands, of ghouls, he would not put himself in danger so easily.

Of course, excluding the wild men, there are still other living animals north of the Great Wall, but relatively speaking, there are much fewer.

……

The army marched through the seemingly endless ghostly forest, often encountering one abandoned village after another.

The forest used to be the largest gathering place for the wild people, but now it has been completely abandoned by them, but they cannot forget the memories of this place.

On the way, the old savage even dug up a jar of honey wine in a certain village, and grinned at the strange eyes around him.

"Old Raymond was bitten to death by a snow bear before Mance summoned us, I knew that the treasure he was hiding would not be discovered, look, sure enough, his son is an idiot!"

……

As they continued to hurry, the northern army lost the initial fear of the outside world.

For seven or eight days in a row, not to mention strange ghosts and ghouls, they did not even encounter a few wild animal attacks, and with the leadership of wild people, the march in this huge snowy forest was basically familiar.

So apart from being very cold, there was nothing unbearable about this trip.

Fear stems from the unknown, and now that they continue to explore, the strange and foggy world suddenly opens up, and the soldiers feel that everything around them is nothing more than that.

Charles relaxed a lot, but he was still a little wary.

It's not good if it's not going well, it's not good if it's too smooth.

Their journey went smoothly, even surprisingly, and Melisandre used her flame divination to "tell fortunes" without worry, and found nothing unusual.

This situation has lasted for half a month, and the army has already penetrated into the outside of the city for many miles. When they finally looked around, the hill called Tree Horn Mountain was already faintly visible.

"Be vigilant, this is the last stretch."

After glancing at his destination for a few moments, the old savage gave a serious command, then closed his eyes slightly, and began to look around with his eagle.

It is impossible for the enemy not to find their traces, but nothing happened along the way, and in this regard, the general brain knows that this is not normal.

It's just that even if it is abnormal, the team is not deterred by this "empty city plan", but insists on hurrying, but it is much more cautious in action.

As the destination approached, under the gray and white sky peculiar to the outside of the Saiwai, the army gradually broke away from the forest and walked on a plain between the Tree Corner Mountain and the forest, and everyone subconsciously rode their horses to slow down.

The sound of horses stepping on the snow shell was incessant, and the whole team generally maintained a circular formation, not seeking speed, but only steady.

Charles was in the army, silently moving forward, not far away suddenly a voice came, Jon beside him. As soon as Snow's ears moved, the bow and arrow in his hand were immediately aimed in that direction, and then the arrow flew away, and in the snow, a snow fox whimpered and collapsed to the ground.

"It's just a fox, my lord." Jon. Xuenuo's relieved voice sounded, and the weapon in his hand was naturally put down.

That's right, the bastard son of the Stark family is also on the team.

Jon. Snow was relatively cautious, and it stands to reason that he should not participate in such a dangerous move, but perhaps because of a red-haired female savage not far away, he resolutely followed when the team set off.

I couldn't help but think of a sentence that 'was carried away by hormones'.

The team moved slowly.

The snow on the plains around Cape Hill was so deep that it was difficult for horses to walk in it, and the army had to dismount and walk on foot.

"This place used to be a depression, and it's much better to cross this area." Goni, the old savage who was beside him, said.

Charles nodded. He also dismounted, and walked among the guards with his legs raised, but it didn't take long for his eyes to froze.

"Alert!"

He suddenly shouted, and the soldiers around him immediately stopped advancing, and at the same time, the horn sounded hurriedly.

The whole army stopped because of this.

"My lord, what's the situation?"

Charles didn't speak, but pointed ahead, and the people around him looked around.

There should have been nothing there, but at Charles' signal, Jon. Snow shot an arrow over, and immediately, a black hand like a dry corpse suddenly sprang out of the snow shell, followed by two, three......

The withered hands broke through the snow and climbed out of the snowdrifts, and it didn't take long for the hideous and terrifying team of ghouls to appear in front of them under the gaze of the soldiers.
