Chapter 643 The Crypt of Winterfell

Viserys was constantly exploring the next path in King's Landing, and he wanted to wake up the pale raven skull with the fire of faith when he was ready.

Viserys asked Merasis if she knew the crow, but Merasis shook her head to indicate that she had never seen a crow become a god.

It is very likely to be one of the ancient Ability Gods, relying on its own strength to become a god, she can perceive that this crow skull contains a powerful divinity.

At the same time, the steady advance of the Night's Watch Legion on the other side gradually recovered large tracts of land and castles.

The soldiers of the legion braved the severe cold, wind and snow, and measured the land in the north step by step.

In fact, the northern territory is vast and sparsely populated, and there are not many castles. It would not take a few months for the Night's Watch Legion to recover the castle.

Even in less than a month, most of the castles can be captured. After all, these scattered ghouls can't defend the city. They just saw the human soldiers and rushed over like beasts.

The soldiers of the Night's Watch can shoot them with kerosene-stained bows and arrows from a distance, and even human soldiers can't get close.

Without the White Walkers, brainless ghouls are no match for humans.

However, the difficulty lies in the vast territory of the North, which is vast and sparsely populated. Therefore, the soldiers of the Night's Watch Legion have to remove these ghouls every inch of land to prevent future troubles when the people of the North relocate back.

…

"drive--"

"drive--"

The towering city walls of Winterfell stood on this vast and endless plain. Two war horses, one brown and one black, ran towards this side, with two knights in black on their backs.

They were wearing black cloaks and thick wolfskin shawls. They came from afar, and they were the two brothers of the Stark family.

Eddard Stark and Bunyan, the two brothers, came under the city wall and restrained the reins, looking up at the nearby Winterfell, and couldn't help feeling a lot.

"The last time I left, Winterfell looked like this."

Eddard Stark exhaled a white breath and said.

On the other side, his younger brother Bunyan wore black leather gloves, and then raised his finger to point to a black burnt mark on the city wall not far away.

"I left a little later than you, Ed, and I burned that place down."

At that time, Bunyan and other coalition soldiers and the brothers of the Night's Watch were separated from the main force in the Battle of Winterfell, and were trapped in the cellar of Winterfell without retreating in time.

They relied on the remaining supplies in the cellar for a few months, and finally ran out of ammunition and food. They mustered up the courage to rush out, and then jumped off the city wall with the help of the heavy snow to escape.

That scorched trace was left when Bunyan pushed down a barrel of kerosene and dropped the torch to stop the ghouls from chasing.

Then Bunyan and the others were rescued by the Three-Eyed Raven, and the rest of the journey was all about finding Viserys until Dragonstone was captured, and was later released when King's Landing fell.

"Winterfell... dropped from my hands."

Eddard Stark looked at the hometown in front of him, his face was mixed, and he finally sighed.

"But Winterfell has been taken back from your hands, Eddard. There's no need to blame yourself."

Bunyan turned his head to look at his brother and said with a smile. The middle-aged man with dark brown hair and beard mixed with a bit of gray shook his head when he heard the words, but still smiled.

"Go, enter the city!"

Then the two brothers urged their horses to enter Winterfell.

Winterfell has now been recaptured by the Night's Watch, and it only took two days to kill all the ghouls, including the cellar.

However, the cellars of Winterfell have no idea what they have experienced, and most of them have collapsed. Most of the tombs of the kings of the north have been buried forever, and the few tombs that are still outside are also deep pits, which should have been The sleeping tomb owner has disappeared.

Jeor Mormont, commander-in-chief of the Night's Watch, was already there when Ed and the Bunyan brothers came to the cellar.

He was checking the Stark family's tomb with a torch, and when he saw the owner of the place came here, he stood up and patted Ed's shoulder, sighed, and said nothing.

The ancestral tomb being dug up is naturally the biggest misfortune in the family, but it is the White Walkers who did it, who can reason with this?

"Commander Mormont."

"Commander-in-Chief."

"Bunyan."

"Lord Eddard Stark."

The three simply said hello, and then the gray-bearded commander of the Night's Watch left the place, leaving it to the two brothers of the Stark family.

Soon after all the outsiders had left, the cellar of Winterfell became quiet, only the torch in Bun Yang's hand was burning, making crackling noises.

"I remember you told me you had a dream."

"Bunyan."

The two brothers were silent for a long time while looking at the crypt of Winterfell that had collapsed in front of them for a long time, and then Eddard Stark's weather-beaten cheek suddenly turned and asked.

"Well, that's right."

On the other side, the smile on Bunyan's face has disappeared, and his mood is a little heavy.

He and his brother had mentioned this dream to him after they were reunited in King's Landing, when he was most desperate when he was besieged in this cellar.

Then he dreamed of his sister Lyanna Stark, who, with tears in her eyes, told Bunyan to leave quickly.

Then, after waking up from the dream, Bunyan and others gathered up the courage to fight a bloody road to break out, and they were encountering the Night King who was returning to Winterfell.

Fortunately, the Night King didn't bother to personally pursue a few lingering human soldiers, so Bunyan and others were able to escape.

"Bunyan, do you think. Now Lyanna has her own consciousness?"

And Eddard Stark was silent for a long time and suddenly said something surprising.

"what?"

On the other side, his brother Bunyan was also slightly taken aback, and then looked at his brother in disbelief.

It was a consensus that the ancestors of the Stark family, including their relative Lyanna, were controlled by the White Walkers to deceive the corpse, but he was surprised by Eddard's words.

"impossible?"

Bunyan thought for a moment, then shook his head and said.

"Why shoot Robert with an arrow if Lyanna has her own consciousness?"

"you"

However, Bunyan swallowed his words before he could finish speaking.

Because he also participated in the trial of King's Landing, he also heard the love story of his sister Lyanna and Rhaegar Targaryen.

Was Lyanna avenging Rhaegar by shooting Robert?

The look on Bunyan's face was a little suspicious, while Eddard Stark on the side was silent the whole time, with a complicated expression on his cheeks, he was the one who knew this history best.
