Chapter Seventy-Five: A Fight in the Woods
Holland Reed was teased enough by Lynn's loser tone, and he didn't think about how to respond for a long time.
However, Lynn didn't intend to wait for him to react, so he continued: "Your Excellency, my butler was kidnapped by someone, please give me an explanation." ”
Lynn's tone was kept high-profile from the beginning, that is, to maintain the equality of both sides in terms of momentum.
I don't know if it's because Lynn's aggressive attitude finally worked.
Holland Reed looked into Lynn's eyes and thought for a moment.
The attitude was no longer as light as before, he grabbed the reins and gave information.
"Maybe you can go to Old Frey's fort, I heard he's going to have a wedding there tomorrow, and I hope you'd better catch it, if you die there, then the swamp dwellers can more easily retake Carlin Bay. ”
With that, Horan Reed led his Zeren Rangers turned and entered the swamp, disappearing into the night mist.
Wedding?
Lynn was stunned.
Looking at Zeren who was walking away, Lynn's face was gloomy and terrifying.
"Let's go to the Green Fork River, see if there are any boats along the river, and let's go to Twin River City. ”
Stirling said, "My lord, it's already dark, even if you get to the fortress of Twin Rivers, the castle gates are closed. ”
Lynn ignored it, waved his hand and yelled at Rooney of the three-masted battleship behind him: "You go back first, let Rodat of Elder Sister Island take his recruits to the fishing village port city to change garrisons, and then find Harry Kane of the fishing village port, and ask him to take all the guards in the city to Carlin Bay, and cooperate with Sir Duncan to go south through the neck and come to Luanhe City." ”
Rooney stood on the deck of the battleship and hurriedly agreed.
"Yes, sir. ”
The swampy forest at midnight is eerie and terrifying, and the shadows of dead trees and black crows around it are like magic shadows in the moonlight.
The three of Lynn crossed King's Avenue in the swamp and headed southwest to the river leading from Greywater Fort to Luanhe City.
After three hours of discredited travel, they came to a small and north-south channel downstream of Fort Greywater.
If Lynn remembers correctly, the river can lead directly to the water gate north of Luanhe City.
Walked south along the river for a while.
Finally, on the side of the creek, a fisherman was found docked on the bank of the river, and a three-person dinghy was found.
Lynn was overjoyed and beckoned Han Niu and the thin monkey attendant to follow.
In the bleak night, Guftavo and Stirling sat in the front and back of the dinghy, oars in hand, rippling in the silent waters.
Nothing was said all night, and it went down the river.
Early the next morning, the river was covered in a mist.
In front of it is the Water City Gate in the north of Luanhe City.
The guards of the Water Gate Guard Tower in Luanhe City were the first to discover the boat on the river, and one of the guards shot an arrow that directly hit the front of the boat.
This is an arrow of warning.
A figure on the watchtower shouted, "Who is the person on the river?"
Lynn glanced at Guftava.
The latter put down the oars in his hand, stood up and spoke out loud the words he had prepared in advance.
"My Viscount, I have come to congratulate Lord Frey on his wedding. ”
There was a moment of silence on the watchtower.
There was a shout: "Nonsense, where is the viscount of your family? Today is the wedding of Lord Duke Amud and my family's daughter Frey." ”
"Besides, Lord Frey has instructed that Twin Cities has not invited other distinguished guests, and the city gate will not be opened today, so leave quickly. ”
Lynn in the middle of the dinghy raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this.
Could it be that I was wrong? The kidnappers weren't Old Frey or Amud.
However, being stared at by the crossbowmen of Luanhe City, now is not the time to calculate, it seems that if you want to sneak into the castle, you need to think about it in the long run.
Lynn stayed up all night, didn't get a good rest, and looked a little sluggish.
He commanded softly, "Dock first." ”
The dinghy landed, and Lynn stepped on the shore and walked towards the grove behind her, intending to bypass the woods and go to the east gate of Luanhe City to try her luck again.
Stirling, who was born as an assassin, suddenly stood in front of Lynn and was shocked, "My lord, there is a fight ahead?"
Lynn paused for a moment and listened closely, and there was indeed a rustling sound coming from the depths of the woods, but it was too far away to be heard.
"Are you sure it's a fight?"
Sterling's ears twitched, and he said confidently, "My lord, there are indeed people fighting over there,"
Lynn thought for a moment, "Let's go, touch it and have a look." ”
The three of them quietly touched a large tree and looked into a clearing in the woods.
When he saw a figure in the fight in front of him, Lynn's eyes lit up.
It's actually himself who is a squire knight Shifu.
Seven or eight members of the Knights of the Gripen, dressed in chain mail, were scattered around the clearing on their horses, watching the duel between Shifu and the man.
What's going on?
Didn't this guy tell him to chase someone and Arya?
Lynn was angry.
Just wanted to dodge out from behind the tree, and stepped forward to scold this stone man who didn't do his job.
saw another tall and burly figure on both sides of the fight, tall enough to be more than 1.9 meters, at this time, just because of the fighting, the two sides adjusted their steps and turned around inadvertently.
Lynn instantly saw the knight's face.
Hey?
It's actually a woman?
Heart, such a tall and burly woman could not be the daughter of the Count of Selwyn Tus, the beauty Brienne who was once a member of the Blue Rite and Red Knights.
The more Lynn thought about it, the more she felt that her guess was reliable.
At this time, the battle in the open field entered a white heat, after a few rounds of fighting, the figures flashed and the swords were sonorous, and the two sides were tired and panting, and each retreated a few steps away.
Shifu, who holds the knight's sword in both hands, is far away from the burly female knight who holds the sword in one hand.
Seeing that the two sides are poised to start, it seems that the next round of martial arts is about to be carried out.
Lynn hurriedly walked out from behind the tree and shouted, "Stop." ”
Shi Fu heard Lynn's voice, turned his head to see the familiar figure appear, and said with a surprised face: "My lord, why are you here." ”
Lynn came to him, looked at the knight, Shifu and then at the tall female knight opposite.
"What are you doing? Tell you to protect Arya, what about her?"
Shi Fu was a little embarrassed when he heard this.
"My lord, when my subordinates caught up with Miss Arya, someone had already entered the Twin Cities with Miss Arya. ”
Lynn was shocked, the bloody wedding was about to take place, and at this time, wouldn't it be a sheep to run to the castle?
Lynn's face grimaced, "Didn't I tell someone not to enter the Twin Rivers? ”
At this time, the short-haired female knight on the opposite side pondered, he put away his long sword, inserted it into the scabbard at his waist, and said to Lynn lightly, "Who are you?" Miss Arya went into the city to find his mother, Lady Caitlin, you don't have to worry about it. ”
Lynn glared at Shifu, ignoring the female knight's words.
"I'll let you chase after you, you're good, why did you put people into the city?"
Shifu bowed down and explained solemnly, "My lord, Miss Arya was escorted into the city by Lady Catelyn, and she sent this female knight to stop us...... The subordinates were in a hurry to enter the city, but they didn't want to bully the less, and planned to have a duel between the knights with her. ”
