Chapter 67: The Lord of Light and the Seven Gods

No one asked Jones why he killed the goats.

But even if asked, Jones might reply, "I hate his slurred speech." ”

As for the real reason - the guy scolded Daisy several times, this reason is still a bit unjustified from Jones's mouth now, and it also seems that he is cautious.

After that, Karang, a Dothraki who killed the goat, naturally became the new leader of the Blood Opera Troupe.

Under the wolf eyes of the northern cavalry, this group of people reluctantly ate the small black pill in Coben's hand before they were able to be freed and let go.

Cobain clapped his hands, walked over to Jones, who had just finished ordering the blood drama troupe, and whispered, "Actually, you don't have to kill the goat, I haven't researched the antidote to 'die the next day', if you want, this group of people will have to die in a year." ”

Jones looked at the old man with a kind smile, and couldn't help but shudder, and at the same time labeled Cobain as an 'evil scientist' in his heart.

......

After letting go of the people in the blood troupe, Sir Carter dismounted with his sword and shield, and said solemnly,

Carter led two hundred and eighty soldiers and reported to the Lord. ”

Looking at Carter, who was scumbag with a scruffy beard and a somewhat haggard face, but his eyes were still sharp, Jones sighed with emotion, "It's been hard for you this time, have you met Rona and Percy?"

Jones was the last to retreat at the Battle of the Green Fork, and he made a point of stopping to treat Daisy's wounds, so it was much slower than Carter's journey.

"It's all found, and now everyone is slowly gathering in a small town not far away, and Ron and Percy have each led a small team, looking for adults and pursuing mercenaries from the West. ”

As he spoke, Sir Carter suddenly glanced left and right, and whispered to the thief, "My lord, the red-robed monk is abducting our men." ”

"What? How did he abduct him?"

"The Red-robed Monk and the Earl of Berry formed a 'Brotherhood Without Flags', saying that they would do justice, judge evil, and protect the common people. ”

"Sounds like a good thing," Jones asked, puzzled.

"It's actually a mission. The red-robed monk has been preaching his 'Lord of Light' Rahlo among his brothers, and if he still has nothing to do, he will show his flaming sword, and if it weren't for our long-term belief in the Old Gods in the North, maybe our people would have kidnapped him and joined his Brotherhood of Birds and Banners. ”

"Fuck," Jones cried out hatefully, "I just saw him rush to the front, and I was touched by him, thinking that I would have one more friend from now on, but I didn't expect it to be all business." ”

"Not only among our northern soldiers, but also among the refugees in the Riverlands, the 'Lord of Light' is being trumpeted, and the red-robed monk and Earl Berry have given all the golden dragons on their bodies to the civilians, and the Brotherhood without Flags is not small now. ”

Jones pondered and said, "Later, we will find Rona and them, and we will rest for a while, and tomorrow morning we will go our separate ways with him, and he will preach his teachings, and we will fight our battles." ”

However, he didn't want to make the relationship with the red-robed monk too stiff.

The red-robed monk is a person who is really capable, Jones has not seen what he said to resurrect people, but he has personally felt the flame sword in his hand, and it is indeed not the juggling of the magic stick.

As for the red-robed monk to preach in the river, he is not optimistic, the entire south has long believed in the 'seven gods', and the 'King of Light' wants to suddenly intervene in it, I am afraid that it is not much easier than preaching in the north.

......

Led by Carter, Jones and the others walked through crooked mountain roads and finally came to the dilapidated town in front of them.

The town's stone walls had fallen waist-high, and the gate leaned against the frame.

Seeing Carter and them returning, several guards hurriedly lifted the door open.

Subsequently, all the torches along the road were also lit.

"We rested in the Sanctuary, the only place in town that didn't have a big hole in the roof, and of course avoided the Brotherhood of the Red Monks. Seeing Jones constantly looking around, Sir Carter reminded.

"How many people are here?" Jones asked, frowning, now he could feel many pairs of eyes staring at him in the dilapidated houses along the road.

"In total, there are more than two thousand people, and counting. These civilians were hiding in the cellars, hiding in the jungle, and if you came in and didn't search carefully, you thought it was a dead town. ”

"It seems that even with the devastation of war, there are still many people who have found their way to survive. Jones said with some pleasure.

Daisy, who was riding beside Jones on horseback, suddenly said, "This is also because the river land has a large population, many rivers, and abundant products, and they can survive if they hide in the mountains casually, if they are in our northern border, they will freeze to death in a few days." ”

Speaking of this, everyone was silent for a while, the original seven kingdoms were the most bitter cold in the north, and in terms of fertile land, they were not as good as the river land and the river bay land.

In terms of ore, they are completely inferior to the West, and even in terms of natural danger, they can't compare to Eagle's Nest City and Dorne.

Remembering the excellent equipment of Tywin's army in the Battle of the Green Fork River, they also began to feel a little confused about what the future would be.

......

Torches illuminate the surroundings of the white circular sanctuary.

"My lord, I'll just say you'll be fine," the bald Percy strode up with a torch, followed by Rona close behind.

"I'm happy to see you're okay. Jones smiled and said, "Tomorrow I'm back in Riverrun, and I'll treat my brothers to eat, drink, and be merry." ”

"Go to Pink Street, there's a prostitute from Reese there......"

"Am I going to that kind of place?" Jones quickly interrupted Percy's gibberish.

"Adults are also adults, it's time to have fun. The bald head raised an eyebrow and continued to encourage.

"I think so," a cold female voice said, "Jones, your men really have you in mind." ”

"Hey, Lord Mormont, why are you ......here," Percy looked back and forth between the two of them several times for some unknown reason before patting his head vigorously, "It's me who I want to go, it's me, adults never go to that kind of place." ”

Things are getting darker and darker by the bald head.

Seeing Daisy's expression getting colder and colder, Jones felt his hand and said, "I'm going to start a family, and I'll definitely invite you to our wedding when the time comes." ”

Sure enough, Daisy was told this, and instantly lowered her head shyly and uneasily, and the person hid behind Jones's back.

"Hehe, it worked. Jones thought happily.

"Bless your lord!" said several people quickly with their eyes in the same eye.

"My lord, I'll help you bring back the loot," Percy also diverted the topic, "The head of the Magic Mountain was drenched with asphalt by me, and the expression before death can still be seen clearly, and I returned to Riverrun......"

......

The whitewashed white lime of the rotunda had fallen off, and only fragments of glass had been left in the windows.

The statues of the seven gods in the hall are also incomplete, the robes of the Virgin Mary were spread on the ground by the northern soldiers, the gilded lanterns of the old woman and the silver crown of the Heavenly Father were held in the arms of several sleeping soldiers, the *** of the girl was cut off, and the eyes made of black jade were also gouged out......

The various pieces of wood that had been torn down were constantly burning in the middle of the sanctuary, making a crackling sound.

The red flames flickered, staining the armor of the northern soldiers who fell asleep around the fire.

"You guys really have no taboos," Jones said with some concern when he saw such a scene.

"It was the red-robed monks who did this first, and many of the statues of the seven gods in the village were destroyed by them before, and our soldiers gradually followed suit. Sir Carter whispered, "I won't stop the old gods we believe in."

It seems that Carter's previous concerns were very correct, and the influence of the red-robed monk on the soldiers in the north was indeed increasing.

"Although we don't believe in the Seven Gods, we should not do such blasphemy in the future," Jones said solemnly.

"The Seven Gods are not true gods," Percy said with a grin, "Your Excellency, you don't care about this kind of false god sanctuary. ”

"The king's wrath must be quenched by the blood of a million men," Jones said with a glaring at him, "and next time keep the brothers away from such places, no matter whose temple it is." ”

After saying that, Jones glanced at everyone and found that most of them still had indifferent expressions, and they still thought that the Seven Gods were false gods.

"This is a fantasy world, and the devil knows if there is a god, who is a true god and who is a false god, whether it is one god, or multiple gods. Jones thought to himself, uneasy.
