Chapter 659 Tracking the White Walkers

"Gah-"

A black knight who fell on a branch and looked down, then tilted his head and made a piercing cry, then flapped his wings and flew into the sky.

Since the Night's Watch has recaptured Winterfell, it has been like a staking, and has successively recaptured other castles and villages in the north, including the last Hearth City.

Commander-in-chief Jeor Mormont of the Night's Watch led the army to recover most of the lost territory in the north, but before he could regain his homeland, he took the lead in arriving at the Great Wall of Despair on Bear Island on Frozen Bay. .

This is the home of all the Legionnaires of the Night's Watch, and since Jeor Mormont took the oath to the weirwood, he is no longer the Earl of Bear Isle, but the Commander-in-Chief of the Night's Watch, for whom the responsibility outweighs personal feelings.

The Great Wall of Despair was still towering above the earth. It was about three hundred miles long and seven hundred feet high.

The black knight Zema stood on the hillside facing the wind and snow overhead, looking at the Great Wall in the distance.

The Great Wall stood so majestic and shocking that the recruits of the Night's Watch couldn't help but whisper to each other when they saw this scene, feeling awe that rose from the bottom of their hearts.

However, when the savage blew the horn of winter, the collapsed part was so conspicuous, like a magnificent dam dug a hole, no matter how strong the defense is, it is useless. Come in, cholera throughout the land of Westeros.

"Watch it again now, and I want to kill the savages again!"

"Stannis strikes too soon, the king of wildlings should first repent of his horrific crimes before being put to death."

Eddard Stark rode his horse on the high hill, the cold wind blew the wolfskin cloak on his shoulders, looked at the collapsed section of the Great Wall in the distance, and couldn't help but said in a hoarse voice.

The Freedmen's King Mance Rader blew the Horn of Winter and collapsed the Great Wall, but his actions directly led to the White Walkers being able to cross the Great Wall and invade the land of the Seven Kingdoms after the Great Wall.

In the Great Escape to the North, how many thousands of people fled their homes, and how many people fell forever on the road from their homes.

Their wives, husbands, children, parents, and even after they died of freezing and starvation, people dared not bury their bodies. In the future, they could only burn all the bodies with a torch to prevent them from blowing in the cold wind. Later became a new enemy.

On the other side, Bun Yang, who was following his brother on horseback, turned his head and glanced at Ed, then silently shook his head without speaking.

He really wanted to say that these savages were meant to live, and that if Mance Rader didn't blow the Horn of Winter and the Wall of Desperation wouldn't be opened to them, then his people would all die at the hands of the White Walkers.

In the final analysis, this was still Robert’s responsibility. Robert insisted that they should bow down and surrender before they could pass the Great Wall. However, the Freedmen insisted that they would not kneel. After all, they had an artifact that could break the Great Wall.

But if this is the case, after the savages entered the Great Wall of Despair, they did not produce, do not farm, and do not herd, and only depended on plundering for a living, which would inevitably harm the people of the Seven Kingdoms.

Robert, as King of the Seven Kingdoms, protected his people from the wildlings and now seemed understandable.

But now it's useless to say that all these things are over, the people are dead, and the grass on Robert's grave is several feet tall. I don't know if anyone but Eddie is weeding him, for that. There is no need to argue with your brother about trivial matters.

Although Bunyan hates savages because they have killed many of their own brothers, Bunyan also knows best that savages are also human, but just before the Great Wall was built, their ancestors chose to live on the other side, so they were isolated Come on.

But how could the noble and honorable Eddard Stark know how the wildling lived?

"I'll go there when I get to Castle Black."

"Get Lyanna back."

Bunyan didn't pick up his brother's words, he held the reins with one hand, then turned his head and said in a relaxed tone.

However, Bunyan's words made Ed's heart sink slightly. His gray eyes looked at his younger brother, and his neatly trimmed beard was slightly gray.

"Bunyan."

Since the last time he was in the cellar of Winterfell, Ed told Bunyan that he wanted to ask Commander-in-Chief Mormont for orders to go to the north of the Wall and track the White Walkers. , to find his sister.

However, Ed's decision was met with strong opposition from Bunyan.

For life outside the Great Wall, Ed could not be more familiar and experienced than himself.

And although Eddard is now dressed in black, he is the former Duke of Winterfell after all. He has his own sister-in-law, Robb, Sansa, Jon, Arya, and Bran, and he is alone. No restraint, no worries.

He's more adventurous than Ed.

Therefore, Bunyan strongly objected to Ed taking risks alone, and he was willing to go north to the Great Wall instead of his brother.

After all, he also has an obligation to find Lyanna. Lyanna is his sister.

In the end, the brothers argued that Ed did not speak to Bunyan.

Maybe he didn't completely let go of his wife and children in his heart, and he couldn't live a full life for himself.

Both the Stark brothers inherited the straightforward character of the northerners, and they didn't have so many hypocrisy. Bunyan was willing to take risks on his brother's behalf, and Eddard didn't pretend to do so on purpose.

"I owe my life, Bunyan."

Then the dark-brown-haired middle-aged man spoke in a serious tone, even causing the smile on Bun Yang's face to slowly fade away.

He also looked at Ed with bright eyes, and then solemnly promised.

"I'll come back alive, brother."

"It will also bring Lyanna back."

The soldiers of the Night's Watch Legion, who could not see the end at a glance, entered the Castle Black, which had collapsed for several years, and the main work of the waiting legion was to repair the Great Wall.

Although according to mythology, the inside of the Wall was woven with spells and magic to reinforce it against the passage of mysterious species, such as the White Walkers.

But from a military point of view, it is still not possible to allow the Great Wall to expose such a large gap, whether it can be repaired or do everything in its power to repair it.

The Stark brothers also followed the team and came to the collapsed Castle Black.

Bunyan rested in the city for a night and made adequate preparations. With the permission of Commander-in-Chief Mormont, he did not say goodbye to anyone in the early morning of the next day, nor did he tell his brother in advance what time it would be today. leave.

He was alone, with a horse and a sword and a long back. Submerged in the wind and snow, he slapped his horse toward the north where he did not know the end.
