The castle on the hill, with a total of eight towers, although not high, is better than the structural integrity.

The back atrium is empty, and this is usually the last place to retreat after the enemy has attacked the castle.

And there are not many people who usually come, and it looks like it has been silent for a long time.

At the end of the rear atrium is the armory tower, as well as a square tower with three small trebuchets.

Behind the Ordnance Tower is a blue stone cliff that apparently came from which the stone of the castle and the outer walls came from.

Of course, it is said that it is a cliff, but in fact it is less than 100 meters, which is not a high mountain.

......

Without the bothering of the aristocracy, Jones was noticeably quicker.

Soldiers from the north began to pour into the castle, the few weapons, leather armor and plate armor in the armory were all removed, and the veterans began to wax and repair in earnest, many of them were not inferior to a craftsman.

What is surprising is that dozens of heavy oak shields have been turned out of the armory, although the iron sheet on the surface of the shield has rusted, but it is enough for the recruits to be recruited next.

However, only a third of the soldiers lived in the castle, which was quite a bit different from what Jones had originally envisioned, because more than a thousand precious horses could not be stuffed in such a small castle, and they did not have the legendary Harrenhal stables that could stuff thousands of horses at the same time, so they had to let the soldiers take turns to take care of and defend outside the castle.

In a short time, the front atrium had been completely cleared, sprinkled with lime, paved with stones, and none of the chickens, ducks, pigs and geese escaped, and were cleaned up by the northern army.

Jones' personal flag, the Shattered Chain Lava Giant, was also planted in various locations in the castle.

The red flag on a gold background honked in the wind at the top of the castle, announcing the arrival of its new owner.

......

The thin little girl, looking at the influx of soldiers, suddenly felt that something was broken.

Everything has changed.

Although she tried her best to avoid thinking about these things.

Looking at these unfamiliar faces, coming and going, listening to those unfamiliar accents, discussing things she didn't understand at all.

Her eyes began to redden, and she walked to a secluded corner, crouching helplessly, like a child who had lost her way at nightfall, and was extremely sad.

......

If Jones had any scenes that he couldn't see, the little girl's crying would be at the forefront.

The little girl's suppressed sob, like the wailing of an elk, tugged at his heartstrings.

Kai...... Kate?...... Lynn," Jones crouched beside her, trying to comfort.

"Careyline, my name is Carrylin, woo woo......" The little girl cried even more sadly.

She raised her head, fair skin, red eyes, delicate nose, full mouth, delicate curly long hair, like a doll.

"Woo woo...... the little girl looked at the short-haired man with teary eyes, and she didn't know where she got the courage, and her little hands slapped the black armor hard.

"It's all your fault...... Woo," she sobbed.

Again and again, the little white hands slapped red.

"Don't cry, don't cry," Jones didn't care about the little girl's feeble beating, but continued to comfort with pity.

......

Ravenna really took a shower, because her lower body was already too muddy.

Now she had changed into a long tulle dress, in which the fair flesh was half-concealed, rubies adorned her chest, her face flushed with satisfaction, and the corners of her mouth rose again.

After taking a shower and spraying perfume, she gently lifted the tulle dress to a suitable position.

Then, like a haughty swan, she raised her white neck and walked with graceful steps, not paying any attention to the fire-breathing eyes of the soldiers around her, and walked towards her goal.

......

"You, you ......"

The scene in front of her made her pause gracefully as if thunder had exploded above her head.

The Black Knight sat on the ground, wrapped around a slender waist, and slapped his big hand a few times from time to time.

And the owner of the slender waist is his own daughter.

"Mother......" Hearing her mother's voice, Carrilyn immediately realized what she had done, swayed and jumped out of the arms of the black knight, her face flushed with shame, and she lifted her skirt and ran away with her head down.

Ravenna, who reacted, looked down at herself, and then at the Black Knight, still with a look of disbelief.

"Isn't he a fool...... Is it true that the rumors that he has to prescribe a debut every day?"

Then she looked at the people in the castle with gold backgrounds, broken chains, and red fire, and couldn't help but shudder, "He doesn't really like to eat people, does he?"

"No, no...... These are all untouchable gossip. I'm not going to give up, just once, once I'll make him surrender. ”

......

Perhaps because the day is sunny, tonight's night sky is full of stars, and a bright moon hangs on the horizon, which is exceptionally bright.

It was a romantic scene of singers singing, but Ravenna was not at all happy, when she should have ridden her horse in bed to the moon, but now she had to accompany the Black Knight to the outer city.

Ravenna had always disliked the outer city, for she it was dirty and messy, full of lowly prostitutes, rough men, wild children running all over the ground.

So when the Black Knight suggested that the banquet would be held in the largest restaurant in the outer city, she was ten thousand unhappy.

However, in order to show her sweetness and obedience, she still agreed with a smile, and then said some noble declarations from childhood to adulthood.

Treat your lords like children, seven hells, and for the lords, they are just a bunch of piglets.

Speaking of children, she is even a little jealous of her daughter who walks behind with her head bowed, and Carillin has already learned to seduce people when she first comes to menarche.

And she herself was married to the pig-like Moss Wood, and after being trained by a singer named Seven String Tom, she understood the beauty.

So now she began to wonder if Carillin had inherited her biological father's talent for seduction.

......

The outer city is not quiet at night, and there are many lights along the road.

Jones and Swain's mother and daughter, Vance's old wife, Piper's big fat man, did not bring a single guard, and walked down the main road in the city, which has the meaning of 'micro-service private visit'.

The stench and the smell of decay were mixed together, and the air here was even worse than the King's Landing.

Compared to the rose-scented court he had visited, his town had literally become a pigshed.

"It seems that some manure collectors have to be arranged, and these stinky treasures are not only not used, but also become a safety hazard. He thought to himself.

Gradually, the woman's high-pitched moans began to become clear, and he already knew what this place was, without asking.

The corners of Ravenna's mouth twitched disdainfully, and the little girl's face became even redder, and she couldn't raise her head in shame.

"Business seems to be good...... Taxes must be a lot," Jones thought cheerfully.

"Paiper-sama, you're here again," a loud voice came from upstairs, and a ** prostitute shouted happily, and she shook the hammer on her chest, and the people who shook it were dazzled.

"What are you, don't insult the glory of my nobility, get out. Paiper said with a blushing face.

"Why don't you know me when you called me dear Ravenna last night?" said the prostitute with a coquettish smile.

......

The atmosphere was unprecedentedly awkward.

Jones looked at Piper, who looked like he had been struck by lightning, and Ravenna, whose mouth was wide open and her eyes wide, and wanted to laugh out loud.

The old lady of Vance looked disdainful and ashamed of her.

"I'm going to kill her," Paiper replied, angrily drawing his sword and preparing to rush upstairs.

Jones grabbed him, "She's my bag of gold, Master Piper, maybe you need to know who the lord here is." ”

"I ...... You," Piper blushed and stammered, but nothing was said.

"Of course, we all know who to trust between a prostitute and a nobleman, right, Lord Piper?" Jones gave a step down.

The big-bellied Paiper nodded a few times hurriedly, and then secretly glanced at Ravenna, whose eyes were round, and completely froze, and no longer looked courteous on the front road.

......

With a "snap", the prostitute's cheeks were swollen and the person fell to the ground.

Kuimu tugged at her hair and said viciously, "Idiot, you almost got into trouble, you know." ”

"You made us attract guests like this," the prostitute said bitterly, and as soon as she said it, she regretted it, Quimu would not listen to explanations at all, and what he liked most was to abuse prostitutes and listen to their screams.

"I'm a big fan of hard-mouthed women," Quimu said with a sinister grin, followed by another kick.

The prostitute curled up as hard as she could, and screamed, "My lord, I don't dare, I don't dare anymore." ”

The screams of the prostitutes mixed with the fury of Kuimu, and several prostitutes next to them covered their mouths in horror, for fear of being beaten by Kuimu.

"It's just you...... Still is...... Ravenna?" was even angrier at this.

Ever since he had seen Ravenna a year earlier, his heart had been firmly occupied by her nobility and holiness, and Ravenna had taken the place of the image of the Virgin in his mind and made him think about it day and night.

"My goddess. ”

Just now he only dared to sneak a glance, but his heart was once again seized by Ravenna's beauty, and a long tulle dress made her as stunning as the Virgin Mary.

Suddenly, he thought of the black knight next to the goddess, and then thought of the scene where his goddess was pressed under the black knight, and the face that had just been smiling became extremely distorted again.

A great hatred welled up in my heart.

"I, Kuimu, swear that I will save you from the clutches of the Black Knight, my noble goddess. ”
