Game of Thrones: The Strongest Dragon Mother

Chapter 277 Brotherhood Without Banners

The cold rainwater hit the branches and leaves passing by the side of the cloak, making a "tattling" sound. Compared with the previous rainstorm that was as dense as a curtain, the rain was much weaker.Maybe it won't be long before the cold rain in late autumn will stop completely.

It was approaching midnight at this time, and a group of more than 20 people set off from the Crossroads Inn overnight, wandering around in the dark and damp woods.

Under Perestan's old man's complaining and puzzled eyes, Dany succumbed, and she didn't call the dragon to save her.

But she also made her own request, she didn't care what Brienne and the others did, but she and Barristan could not take off their armor, and the saber could be taken off from their waists, but it had to be kept by the old doctor.

In view of the characteristics of the red-nosed old man and the five scumbags, the bandits only hesitated for a moment before agreeing.

Dany is intrigued by the inexplicable Lady Stoneheart.

There is indeed a Brotherhood Without Banners in the plot, but the leader of the fraternity seems to be a man, a bitch, and she doesn't remember the name, so she wants to meet the lady.

Danni is just a simple "fat sheep", and she always helps them kill the remnants of the bloody actors, so she can get good treatment.

Brienne was not so lucky. The Brotherhood Without Banners seemed to target her specifically. Not only was her armor stripped, her weapons were taken away, but her hands were also firmly bound.

Well, Haier and Podrick are treated equally.

In this way, a group of people rode horses, braved the rain in the middle of the night, and walked through the cold and wet black forest.

The raindrops wet their cloaks along the leaves, and the cool air penetrated into their bones. People seemed to be numb from the cold, and no one spoke during the whole trip.

After finally getting out of the woods, the bandits took them to the river and told them to dismount. A bandit ran to the river and shouted a few times, and a ten-meter-long ferry slowly rolled out of the reeds.

Then, they got off their horses, except for Meribald's donkey and dog, all the others' war horses were taken away, except for a dozen or so people who escorted them, the rest of the bandits led their horses back the same way.

The ferry was gliding on the black and misty river without making any sound, and Dany was shocked at the rigor and formality of the Brotherhood Without Banners organization.

Even the oar blades are specially wrapped with thick cloth to suppress the sound, how cautious it is!

"Who is Mrs. Shi Xin?" She couldn't help asking.

"I've never seen her, and I don't know where she comes from. I only heard that she is a cruel woman, silent, likes to judge the unjust, and sentence the other party to hang. Therefore, in addition to 'Mrs. Stoneheart', people also call her 'Sister Silent' , 'Mother of Mercy', 'Gallows Girl'." Haier said.

"Don't talk, there may be officers and soldiers patrolling the river." Bearded Lemon scolded in a low voice.

"Let's keep our voices down." Regardless of whether he agreed or not, Dany turned to Brother Meribald and asked in a low voice, "How much do you know about the Brotherhood Without Banners?"

The old monk had been roaming the river, so he must know the organization well.

"The Brotherhood Without Banners was founded by Earl Beric Dondarrion, and Prime Minister Stark ordered him to lead people to clean up the bandits who harassed the river—in fact, the blood troupe and Gregor Clegane arranged by Duke Tywin.

As a result, not long after they left King's Landing, King Robert died and Prime Minister Ed was imprisoned.

However, the Earl of Berry and his party still insisted on carrying out the orders of Prime Minister Ed, and they always opposed the Lannister who harassed the people. Later, the northerners went south

Wolf cubs are not good things either, they still burned, killed and looted, and Earl Bailey treated them equally, hanged those who deserved to be hanged, and locked the crows in the crow cage, regardless of faction, and only resolutely carried out justice.

Because he has been fighting bandits and protecting civilians, all the villages, churches, and inns in the Riverlands have become the stronghold of the Brotherhood Without Banners, and all the people in the Three Rivers Valley are their protectors. The fear of the disabled greatly boosted the morale of the common people and made them united. "

——The family emblem of House Dondarrion is a purple forked lightning bolt.

"The Brotherhood Without Banners has developed into a guerrilla group of workers, peasants and soldiers? If the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms continue to die and the wars continue, can we go further and get a red party?" Dany asked in surprise.

"Red Party?" The old monk nodded, "That's right, the Red Party was almost formed, and the people in Hejian began to give up their belief in the Seven Gods, and instead believed in the Red God who can often perform miracles."

Uh, this red party is not that red party

"What miracle, raising the dead?" Dany asked.

The old monk nodded with a complicated expression, and sighed: "The Lightning King is not invincible, and the Brotherhood Without Banners cannot win every battle, they have been defeated many times, and Earl Beric has been beheaded many times.

As far as I know, he was killed by the Mountain at least twice, once through the heart with a spear, and once through the eye socket into the head with a sword.He was even captured alive a few times and hanged. Every time he was killed, he was resurrected by Thoros, a follower of the Red God from Myr.

Seeing such miracles happening around them, believers naturally began to convert their beliefs. "

Perestan couldn't help asking: "Are you sure that the Lightning King is always the Earl of Beric, and not someone wearing his armor and flying his lightning banner?

Just like the Hound's dog-headed helmet was picked up, everyone thought it was the Hound who ransacked the town of Saltpan. "

"Are you deaf? King Lightning has been captured by the nobles several times, can they recognize the wrong person?" Dany sneered and said, "Accept the reality, there is a true god in this world, and resurrecting the dead is almost the iconic priest skill of the priest of the Red God.

And obviously, R'hllor, the Lord of Light, has the idea of ​​invading Westeros, otherwise why would he waste so much divine power to perform miracles repeatedly?

Even the local lord doesn't care about the life and death of the local people in Hejian, so a foreign god would care?

Is he too kind?

Pull it down, the other side of R'hllor is Shadow Fiend!With that guy's greed and blood, even the Shadow Binder is extremely afraid. "

"Boom!" A bandit tapped Dany's helmet with a scabbard and sternly shouted, "Don't slander the great Lord of Light."

Then he began to chant R'hllor's prayer: "The night is long, and every place is dangerous. Only my lord R'hllor can lead us to the light and drive us out of the darkness."

Dany winked at the sluggish Perestan, and laughed softly, "Did you see it? Didn't they see miracles happen with their own eyes, how can they be so devout?"

"Why the river land?" the old doctor murmured.

"Fortunately, you are still a doctor, and you still ask questions that even fools know." Dany sneered, but was surprised to see Barristan, Meribald, Hyle, and Brienne all looking at her blankly.

uh, a lot of idiots

"Ahem, let me ask you, among the Seven Kingdoms, where is the worst disaster?"

"The river."

"Where is the most populated place?"

"River bend?" the white knight asked.

"No, a single river and a place may not be as good as a river bend, but the war has affected half of the king's territory and most of the western territory. Counting them, the most recognized should be the Three Rivers Valley," Perestan thought thoughtfully.

"The power of religion rises among the suffering people. When the lord, the king, the law, and the tradition have nothing to rely on, the suffering people can only seek the illusory but omnipotent gods. R'hllor is easy to calculate, and that guy probably predicts the four kings. Whoops!"

But it was the Red God believer who knocked her again, more forcefully.

"Don't speak ill of the King of Light." The pockmarked boy's eyes were red, and he was so angry that he drew his sword.

"Fuck, do you know who I am?" Dany turned her head and said angrily, "Benello has to be polite when he sees me, you little bastards can't even be called the Hand of the Holy Flame, on the contrary God is this?"

"I don't care what the book is or what it is, but you are not allowed to insult the Lord of Light!" The pockmarked boy roared back, and put the sword on Dany's neck by the way.

"Okay, I won't say anything." Dani raised her hands in surrender, even the name of the High Priest Benello couldn't scare him, what else could she say?

"Septon Meribald, you continue."

"Oh, the Earl of Berry is still dead, and he gave the fire of his life to a woman who has been dead for many days, which is now Lady Stoneheart.

Lady Stoneheart, who succeeded Lord Berry as head of the Brotherhood, was not the same as the Lightning King.

Earl Berry implements justice and protects civilians; Madam Stoneheart is unscrupulous in killing wildly for revenge.

The Brotherhood split into two factions. Those who became avengers in the misery continued to serve Madam Stoneheart; those who still had light and hope in their hearts left the Brotherhood and continued to help the people before. "

"Bread and salt!" Brienne seemed to remember something, her face changed, and she called to Jane Longlegs: "At the inn, Brother Meribald brought food to the children, and we shared bread and salt with your sister , we are your guests, you cannot violate the guest rights."

"Since my wife came back from the wedding, the hospitality is different." Jane sighed, looked at the dark river, and said indifferently: "Have you seen the corpses hanging by the river? Some of them also thought they were guests. .”

"Wedding?" Dany frowned and said, "Is it the red wedding? Who is Mrs. Shixin, and she also participated in the blood wedding? Want revenge, is she a survivor from the north? No, she died a few days before being caught by lightning." Your Majesty save me, don't you?"

"Don't you feel ashamed?" Barristan blushed and was very angry. "You wantonly trampled on the rights of guests, and you still look like nothing happened. Do you have a sense of honor and shame? Don't you fear the judgment of the gods?"

"We have our own way." Jane said lightly.

Lemon put on the hound helmet for herself, sneered, and said: "There is no honor in this world, as for the trial, let's go to Shuhe City to see it!

The ghosts of thousands of northerners wailed that night, but the king, the church, the academy, and the nobles did not care about it, and even acquiesced to Walder Frey's behavior.

The family that violated the rights of the guests is thriving and has become the new owner of the riverland.

Now that this land is already filthy, how can we who live on it not adapt to the new rules? "

"Damn Walder Frey, damn Lannister, the church and the city of inaction are guilty," Barristan said sadly with tears in his eyes, "morality is ruined, etiquette is broken, Westeros is beyond salvation No!"

Seeing Danni next to him, he suddenly became very excited, and shouted: "Let's send troops! Clean up the world, and restore the world to a bright future—"

"Boom!" The pockmarked boy knocked the old knight violently, knocking the old man's helmet to one side.

"Damn old man, don't make any noise!" The bandit warned in a low voice.

"You..." Perestan stared at the young man for a long, long time with strange eyes, "It's amazing!"
