"Come on, let's discuss this. That Jia Kun is so powerful, why not let him kill Magic Mountain?"
"Shut up!" Speechless!
"Why didn't you kill Tywin, or Joffrey, oh my God! You missed the chance to save the entire continent!"
"Shut up!" Blushing!
"What did you use it for? Kill a nobody? Ha!"
"Ah!" A furious Arya jumped on Linn's back from behind, hugged his neck and tried to shut him up.
"Stop talking! Didn't he just come out with the hot pie?"
"Okay, that's still of some use!" Linn said, leaning up, clasping his hands behind his back, and carrying Arya on his back, he continued to walk forward.
Linn is so tall and has broad shoulders. Lying on his back makes Arya feel like she was lying on her father's back when she was a child!
After a rare moment of silence, he lay down and slowly put his face on Lin En's back.
After a while,
"Where have we been?" Arya asked,
"Hurry to the Red Fork River!" Linn was not sure.
"But we have been walking for two days. If it was the Red Fork River, we should have arrived long ago!"
Fatty Hot Pie answered, "Maybe we've passed?"
"The river is more than thirty meters wide! Did we step across it accidentally?" Arya said angrily.
"So we're lost, right?" Hot Pie was about to cry. He felt like his belly had shrunk twice since he had been traveling these past two days.
"How do I know! This is my first time out of King's Landing. The terrain I know is all seen on Tyrion's map." Lin En retorted confidently,
"It's Arya's fault that she got lost!"
Arya was speechless, so she patted Linn on the shoulder, jumped off his back and started to speak.
Sudden,
Lin En put his index finger to his mouth and made a silent gesture to the two of them.
Arya and Hot Pie looked tense, knowing that Linn might have discovered something, so they stopped talking and became quiet.
A burst of male singing came, with a rough voice and a weird accent,
Lin En pointed to a big tree nearby and motioned for the two of them to hide behind the tree.
After the two of them hid, he took off the war hammer from his waist and carried it directly towards the direction of the sound.
A group of warriors, more than 20 people, were walking over from the opposite side, holding various weapons, but very few wore armor. Only a few wore chain armor. Judging from the weapons and equipment, they were not doing well!
Lin En walked to the middle of the road and said carelessly,
"Hello, friends! Please don't be nervous, believe me, as long as you don't move, you will be safe!"
A group of people who just walked over looked at each other, were they being robbed?
One person wants to rob more than 20 of them?
He needs to be made aware of the cruelty of this world!
…
Three minutes later, these people lay on the ground and fully realized the cruelty of the world.
"A monster appears out of nowhere!"
One man, with his bare hands, put them all to the ground within a few minutes.
Soros was lying on the ground. The overwhelming pain in his stomach made him think that his intestines were broken, and he lamented in his heart.
"Great is R'hllor, Lord of Light! Have you abandoned your followers?"
Just when he was doubting his life,
The monster who had knocked them all down spoke,
"I just want to ask you for directions. Do I have to do something before I can talk properly?"
Soros endured the severe pain and said, "What do you want to ask?"
Lin En nodded, "This is a good way to talk. Now, can you tell me how to get to the Red Fork River, and are there any inns or other places nearby? My companion and I need to rest, if you can help us
If you show me the way, then it’s yours.”
After saying that, he took out a gold coin and placed it next to Soros.
"that's all?"
After receiving the affirmative answer, Soros felt that the beating he received was not worth it!
Especially after seeing the two children Arya and Hot Pie walking out from behind the tree, and combined with the information obtained the day before yesterday, he had already guessed who the person in front of him was.
"Are you Linn and Ali who broke out from Harrenhal?"
"How do you know?" Arya exclaimed,
"You broke through Harrenhal and killed two hundred knights. The news spread throughout the day, and many civilians in the river were singing your praises!"
Arya and Linn looked at each other. They didn't expect the news to spread so quickly and increase the number of people tenfold!
Thoros struggled to stand up, "We are the Brotherhood Without Banners. If you believe it, you can follow us. We can help you avoid Lancelot and reach your destination."
Little Fatty Hot Pie hurriedly shook his head and said, "Isn't the Brotherhood Without Flags the one that Magic Mountain is looking for? We will be fed rats by Magic Mountain!"
Linn's heart was moved. He had also learned about the Brotherhood Without Banners. According to the people in Harrenhal, it was a non-governmental organization dedicated to resisting the Lannister.
Through guerrilla attacks, sneak attacks, etc., they caused a lot of trouble for the Lannisters in the Riverlands, so the Mountain arrested civilians everywhere and interrogated them about the whereabouts of the Brotherhood Without Banners.
Lin En didn't listen to the little fat man. The three of them followed the group of people to a village.
There are only a few old people left in the village, and the others have been captured by the Lannister army.
Either they were killed on the spot, or they were captured at Harrenhal, enslaved, and tortured. No one could escape from the Mountain's army alive.
Thoros entertained the three of them in the village. There was nothing good, just bread and stew, which was the best food available here.
He did not ask Lin En about the identities of the others, but instead introduced his situation to them.
They talked about a lot of the atrocities committed by the Magic Mountain here. They kept burning, killing and looting in the Riverlands. They almost killed all the natives of Harrenhal, and then they started to arrest people in the surrounding villages.
After learning the purpose of Lin En and others, they set out with them. Along the way, they often stayed in some villages and received supplies.
Many of these Brotherhood Without Banners are the original residents of the area. They are not only against the Lannister, but also against the Lannisters.
When there is war in a place, it is not just war, chaos, and bandits, these are the targets of the Brotherhood.
The Brotherhood upholds justice, protects the weak, and is a practitioner of chivalry.
In an inn, the three of them met the leader of the Brotherhood Without Banners, Lord Beric Dondarrion!
"count?"
"Miss Arya!!!" Beric Dondarrion came over in surprise,
"I thought you were still in King's Landing, but I didn't expect you had escaped. This is great!"
Lin En looked at this Earl, the leader of the Brotherhood Without Banners, a one-eyed middle-aged man like a pirate, but without the gangster spirit of a pirate.
Even the stains on his armor can't hide his upright figure.
PS: This should be recognized by the guards of Nai De, but it is of no use. There are too many characters and it affects the reading, so I removed it!
