A certain sword soul's infinite journey

Chapter 23 Plan Change
The convoy started moving that night.

Walking on this hidden path mentioned by You Lun, Lin Yi felt 1 things to vomit in his heart.

Can this be considered a road?

At best, two ruts through the weeds and woods!

Although it is indeed concealed enough, people coming and going can be seen sporadically, but it is too concealed.

The road was extremely winding, sometimes turning into a creek, and a few times the ruts ahead were completely invisible. If it weren't for Uren's guidance, the team would have been unable to get through the weeds and find the next rut.

The fault between the two ruts is nearly a mile long.

Now Lin Yi fully believes that Yoren has walked the King's Road for 30 years, and even this kind of path is engraved in his heart.

The terrain here is fairly flat, surrounded by grasslands and woods. They also passed a small valley in the afternoon of the second day.

But except for Lin Yi and Alia, no one could appreciate such a view, they were already so tired that they could fall asleep.

Uren cheered up and called Zhong to bury the pot on the spot to cook and set up a tent.

When the people in the convoy heard the order, they immediately cheered.

After coming out of King's Landing City, they had never experienced such a long march.

I didn't close my eyes for more than [-] hours, and the soles of my feet were covered with blisters.

Looking at the valley in front of him, Yoren felt a little melancholy.

He knew the place, and it was less than half a day's journey from the hotel.

That's right, after the convoy traveled fast for a day and a night, the distance they traveled was only half a day's journey on weekdays.

Because they carried a lot of weight, the speed of the carriage was very slow, and the valleys and rivers made the road extremely muddy. The wheels were almost completely sunk in the mud every time they walked, and several people needed to pull out the wheels together.

This made Yoren a little anxious, but his sense of responsibility couldn't make him leave so many carriages and recruits behind.

Therefore, You Lun could only instruct Lin Yi in private, telling him to take Arya away if the situation was not good.

As for Gendry... Yoren and Robert had no friendship.

Lin Yi just smiled and didn't care about it.

Arya didn't care much, she now had a bay horse, and with her skill and riding skills, she could just run away on it.

But she has no intention of leaving the camp, and she even thinks that the slower the convoy, the better.

The slower she gets to the North by one day, the more she can study for one day.

As for the gold-robed chasing soldiers, Arya didn't care, she had more confidence in Lin Yi than anyone else.

She had seen what Lin Yi's sword danced like, no one could walk out of that kind of sword light alive.

Now that the distance to the north is getting closer, Arya's heart is getting more and more empty, and she has endless questions every day.

Lin Yi also noticed the little girl's emotions. Apart from teaching swordsmanship, he would also do ideological homework.

Arya hit a rabbit and a pigeon tonight, and ran to Lin Yi as if claiming credit.

Lin Yi smiled and praised her, gave the rabbit to Yuren, and then took Arya to cook her a meal of roasted pigeons with the spices in the caravan and the wild onions picked on the spot.

Although the meat is not a lot, it is a delicacy that Arya hasn't touched for a long time.

Arya also saved a bit of her own half, which she planned to bring to Gendry.

As for the rabbit given to Yoren, he stewed a large pot of rabbit broth with mushrooms, and shared it among the convoy, even the three in the prison van.

Of course, these three copies were sent by Arya after she came back, and no one else had the guts to do so.

"Someone is grateful."

Jia Kun licked his fingers and said politely.

But this surprised Arya a bit, since Jaqen hadn't spoken to her for a long time.

"A girl better not get too close to someone."

Jaqen said with a smile.

"Someone doesn't like it."

Arya understood.

The former so-and-so refers to himself, and the latter so-and-so refers to the teacher.

"why?"

Arya asked.

Jia Kun thought for a while, then shook his head: "Someone doesn't know or know."

Arya looked into his face, seeing nothing wrong, and turned away.

Since you don't understand, then listen to the teacher, what the teacher said can't be wrong.

Before going to bed that night, Green Hand and Hot Pie were still whispering about Gendry's identity.

Hot Pie felt that Gendry must have committed a crime. Green Hand eavesdropped on the conversation between Yoren and Lin Yi, but only heard a few sporadic words, so he believed that Gendry was the illegitimate son of the beheaded Lord Wolf.

"Believe me, it must be, I heard Yoren say so." The green hand lowered his voice and said firmly.

"He's not!"

Arya slapped the green hand's bottom with the stick, and retorted softly.

"You hit me again!" The green hands rubbed their butts depressedly, "How do you know it's not?"

"..." Arya was at a loss for words for a moment, of course she knew that her father only had Jon as an illegitimate child.

But Arya is no longer the Arya she used to be. After thinking about it for a while, she was smart enough to think of a very crucial piece of evidence.

"Lord Ed was not in King's Landing 16 years ago, how could he be Gendry's father!"

"How do you know he wasn't in King's Landing 16 years ago?" Green Hand looked at her suspiciously.

"Don't you know about the siege of Storm's End?"

Arya had a look of surprise on her face, as if she didn't know that it was a very incredible thing.

Green Hand's lips twitched twice, but he still couldn't say the three words "I don't know".

Seeing the green hand lying down and admitting defeat, Arya was a little proud.

"You know so much."

Hot Pie said enviously.

"My mother only taught me how to bake bread."

"It's amazing, I can't bake bread."

Arya reassured.

"This is your unique skill. Don't forget, it will be useful in Castle Black."

"Well, I'm sure I won't forget, every step is in my head... Well, I would have been a baker too."

"...who isn't?"

Arya suddenly lost the interest to speak, turned around, and stared absently at the "red sword" in the sky with her big eyes.

……

Sitting cross-legged at the highest point of the valley, Lin Yi looked down at the children whispering, then sighed, and took out his cell phone.

With the cover of the "red sword" in the sky, the light of the mobile phone screen is not so conspicuous in the dark night.

Lin Yi swiped open the lock screen and found the map he had taken in King's Landing City - although there was still a parchment map in the inventory, in the dark night, the parchment was obviously not as clear as the mobile phone.

"Should we be at God's Eye Lake soon?"

Lin Yi zoomed in on the map with two fingers, gesturing the distance on it.

There is no scale on this map, Lin Yi can only use the known distance between two cities to measure how far he has traveled.

After such a calculation, Lin Yi frowned immediately.

It's been a month, how did you get out of such a small distance?

If they want to reach the Great Wall of Desperation, they need at least a dozen sections from King's Landing to where they are now.

Converted at the current speed, it will take about a year.

Is this too long?

Lin Yi sighed.

The convoy was mainly slowed down by the carriages and luggage, and the roads were so bad that they could travel ten miles at most on the smoothest day.

If the carriage and baggage can be discarded, the speed can be increased by at least ten times.

But the northern border is at war with Lannister, and the Trident Valley and the Riverlands have already become dead places. Those who are still alive in this land are either bandits or deserters, and they can starve to death without luggage.

Originally, he thought that following the recruiting team of the Night Watchman was looking for a guide, but only now did he realize that he was looking for a lot of trouble.

Can't go on like this!
Lin Yi frowned, and he made up his mind. After arriving in the northern border, he escorted Arya to find his elder brother Robb, and then asked Robb to send a guide who knew the way, and the two rushed to the Great Wall on Qingqi.
