Chapter 343: Monkey War (3)
The wyvern let out a roar, whistling through the air and flapping its wings, its massive eyes looking down at the ground, unable to escape even the faintest of light hiding in the forest.
It followed the light of the monkey's corpse in the air, and the two on the ground were not far behind.
Yi Huan summoned a pegasus from the shadows again, and Winnie rolled up, her body clinging to the horse's back, like an arrow from a bow, her blonde hair blending with the forest, and soon she was out of sight.
And Yi Huan didn't ride a pegasus, he didn't have the ability to withstand bumps like Winnie, and he released his perception slightly, and through the eyes of the forest, he quickly searched for the light.
The next moment, his body twisted, appearing out of thin air behind the convergence of the blobs of light.
The light seemed to be frightened, and it was a little faster again, but the magic of the same easy noise was also very masterful, and even when he used the shapeshifter in the forest, he avoided all obstacles and followed the light with unmistakable accuracy.
A huge black shadow shrouded the forest in the sky, and the sound of Winnie's horse's hooves sounded from the side, and Yi Hustle was following behind the light, and the convergence of the three seemed to represent that the light had nowhere to escape.
But it didn't hesitate at all, although it was an invisible existence, its speed had always been faster than Yi Huan, so that Yi Huan could only follow behind, but it couldn't catch it, even if it moved to the front of the light cluster in advance, it avoided it as if it had a sense, and then slowly adjusted its route.
I don't know how long it took, but it seemed that even the sky was bright.
Wisps of sunlight seeped down from above the forest, dappling the hustle and bustle of the face, but in the blink of an eye. The light suddenly disappeared from under his eyelids.
Yi Huan saw it very clearly. It's gone. And not his delusions.
Involuntarily slowed down the pace, Yi Huan looked at the environment in all directions, the woods seemed to change during the day, the birds were singing and fragrant, and they changed into beautiful gardens, Winnie drove Pegasus slowly, and the sound of horses' hooves clattered.
"I lost it." She rolled over and dismounted, patting the horse on the back. "I saw it disappear in an instant." Green's eyesight is excellent and he rarely sees away.
"Me too." Yi Huan's expression did not move, and he said with a calm expression, "Since both of us watched it disappear, then it was indeed it that disappeared." ”
Winnie shrugged, "So...... Does this mean that we are indeed lost? ”
"Nope." Yi Huan shook his head, "This means that we have arrived at our destination." ”……
Diggle kept urging his horse team, and the knights were just as Yi Huan thought. Not a traditional knight, the Riverlands were first invaded by the North. It was also stationed here by Wintellanist, and the war caused a large loss of population.
Harrenhal, which had been standing for a hundred years, was still alive and well in many wars, and the high cost of maintaining the castle meant that no family was willing to take over it, and Polivier was only a part-time caretaker.
Diggle didn't want to care about Harrenhal, and he didn't want to care about the War of the Five Kings, they just needed to survive, and countless people of the Three Rivers needed to survive.
Therefore, the Riverlands needed a stable environment, and the people of the Three Rivers did not dare to fight against the brutal nobles, but they could resist the brutal bandits.
This is how Diggle and his fellow knights emerge as part of the Harrenhal Patrol, and the nobles recognize them but are unwilling to arm them at the expense of their possessions.
Diger's mission is to secure the safety of the villages near Harrenhal, and it's simple.
It wasn't until he came across the two travelers, the traveler on the winged horse, two very strange people, that the riverland's own talent for seeing the wind made Diggle aware of the danger, so he did not act rashly.
He wasn't much of a well-informed man, but he had spent some time in Beauty Town and Saltworks Town, and had learned about the world from those bragging sailors.
But he had never heard of a flying horse anywhere, and the man with black hair and black eyes couldn't tell which city it was, and it didn't even look like Westeros.
It's just that Diggle didn't say anything, but told the other party very gently what he wanted to know, and then watched them leave.
Although he and his men didn't mind working as bandits for anyone other than the Trois-Rivières, Diggle's instincts told him that it was dangerous for both men and women.
Including the inexplicable words he said before leaving, although Digger didn't take it to heart, he felt that it was necessary to report it to Polivior, although Polivier probably wouldn't take it to heart.
With this in mind, Diggle decided to take someone back to Harrenhal overnight.
He was familiar with the roads around here, and his subordinates were all here all year round, and he could find the way even with his eyes closed, so it was not a problem to travel at night.
Despite the complaints of his men, no one dared to rebel against Diggle, and in this era, civilians die in vain, and no one grieves or angers you.
One by one, the knights sat on their horses with their bodies bowed, the withered branches smiling like devils in the moonlight, and a large black shadow suddenly flashed in the sky, startling everyone.
"What's that?" Diggle asked with a frown.
"I didn't see it clearly."
"It's like a big bird."
"I don't know."
His men were gossiping, the trees of the forest were very high, and it was impossible to concentrate when they were hurrying at night, not to mention the fact that the bipedal dragon that was easy to call out was flying so fast that it was possible for only those who had just looked up to see what it was.
And there really was a knight in the horse team, who just happened to raise his head.
"It seems to be...... A dragon? The knight, or rather the poor young man on horseback, who had scarcely bitten off his tongue, stammered.
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then the atmosphere fell eerily silent.
"Dragons?" Diggle narrowed his eyes and repeated dangerously, the young man looked at him stunned, his eyes were full of puzzlement in the dark night, and then, Diggle slapped the young man on the head hard, "Don't recognize Wei An as your wife when you go back!" ”
Everyone around them burst into laughter, Vian was the prettiest prostitute in Harrenhal, and Diggle was making fun of the young man's whimsy or bad eyes.
"There are no dragons in this world." After laughing for a while, Digal said sternly, his expression tense, "Or maybe Westeros doesn't have it now." ”
The group of knights were silent, lowered their heads and continued on their way, but it was hard to say what Digger was thinking in his heart, he was still working on the docks of Saltworks Town some time ago, and he heard about the deeds of the Mother of Dragons, but he didn't dare to confirm that it was true.
Even if it was true, the dragon of the Mother of Dragons was also a baby dragon, and what would that mean if that huge shadow just now was really a head dragon as the young man said.
The Targaryen dynasty has ruled the continent with dragon fire for hundreds of years, and now that the War of the Five Kings has just ended, Westeros is about to usher in a new wave of change, and the people of the Riverlands can no longer bear it.
Diggle bowed his head and said nothing, but he didn't notice that the sky, which had just fallen at night, was already slightly bright. (To be continued......)
