Chapter 353

The octagonal kitchen is more than 200 square meters, which should be very spacious, but the furnishings inside take up most of the area.

Just opposite the slaughter table, there is a row of more than a dozen huge brick ovens.

Near the furnace mouth in the south, there is a trace of cleaning, not far away there are carbon ash and unburned wood, and there are several fish heads and some scorched fish bones beside the extinguished campfire.

Dani walked to the entrance and asked casually, "Is the passage in the well?"

"Ah, how do you know?" Sam was shocked.

The well in the center of the kitchen is entirely made of stones. The edge of the well is half a meter high, and the diameter of the well head is nearly four meters. .

"The hidden door in the well is an old-fashioned story. What's more, there are steps beside the well wall, which are covered with moss and have obvious footprints." Dani smiled lightly.

As she spoke, she picked up a brick from the ground and threw it lightly.

After a while, there was a muffled sound from the depths of the darkness, and a weak echo spread up the well. There were waves of sound, as if something was hidden at the bottom of the water, and it was startled at this time, rolling in the water.

"Your Majesty, I'll go down and have a look." Barristan volunteered.

"Wait a minute, I'll throw a fireball down to explore the way."

Dany waved to the big black man with his neck sticking out of the kitchen door.

"Hissing!" Dahei let out a low growl, opened his mouth, and spewed out a fire snake as thick as an arm. It snaked like a living thing and came to Dani, twisting into a ball of bright red the size of a fist. fireball.

Fat Sam was dumbfounded at the conjuring scene, not noticing the cold puddle of snot hanging under his nostrils slipping into his open mouth.

After learning the incomplete Green Prophet's meditation, Dani's ability to precisely control the flame has improved a lot, and the range and flexibility of the fireball floating around her body have also increased a lot.

At this moment, the fist-sized fireball was one step ahead of the white knight, floated into the mouth of the well, and slowly fell down.

Dany, Aemon, and Samwell leaned on the edge of the well and looked down. The fireball dispelled the blackness. There were large scales of different colors and a small amount of moist brown moss on the well wall, and there was a mirror-like surface below. Reflective, wobbly, wobbly.

"No door," said Barristan.

The well is 30 meters long, and when the fireball falls to one-third of the depth, the walls of the well below and the water surface at the bottom of the well can be seen at a glance.

There is no door, not even a window, and the walls around the well are black and full of scale, with no trace of opening or closing.

Dany turned to the fat man, and seeing the sure composure in his eyes, she knew he'd guessed they couldn't find the way.

Aemon asked him, "Where is the door?"

"Huhuhu——" the fireball descended to the bottom of the well, and when it was close to the water surface, a gust of wind suddenly rushed up from the bottom of the well.

"Chi——" Long Yan could no longer maintain the fireball form, and suddenly stretched into a line of fire, rising ten meters high with the strong wind, and then quickly extinguished. The deep well was once again dark, only the low wind whistle, like a woman whimpering .

For the first time, Dani's dragon flame fireball lost control and was blown out by the wind.

The four people on the edge of the well were blown back several steps by the gust of wind at the bottom of the well. The broken tiles above their heads flew up and fell in all directions.

"Where does this evil wind come from?" Dany looked at fat Sam in astonishment.

"I don't know. When I went down, there was nothing strange at the bottom of the well." The fat man was at a loss.

"There is no gate at the bottom of the well, and there shouldn't be such a strong wind." Both Aemon and Barristan looked puzzled.

"This gust of wind is definitely not a natural wind, and my dragon flame fireball will not be blown out by ordinary strong winds." Dany affirmed.

"Your Majesty, shall I go down and have a look?" Barristan said.

"This" Dani hesitated, "You have also seen that the wind is too strong, if you fall into the water, you will be covered in iron armor"

"It's too dangerous, forget it." She shook her head firmly.

"Sam, what do you say?" Aemon looked at the fat man with burning eyes.

Dany and Barristan looked over together, and the invisible pressure made the fat man shrink his neck.

After hesitating for a moment, he whispered, "Don't raise the torch, don't throw the fireball, but the Jazz is not a night watchman, and he won't see anything after he goes down."

"Is there any danger?" Aemon asked.

"Probably not." Fat Sam frowned, not sure.

"Clang!" Barristan drew his longsword and slammed it into the cracks in the bricks along the well.

"Chi——" The smoky black blade seemed to be piercing into wood, easily piercing through the edge of the well.

"There was an accident, I used the sword to fix my figure." The old knight said.

"It's better to take off your armor," Maester Aemon suggested.

"No, the armor can't be taken off," Dany shook her head, "The gust of wind just now was not formed naturally, there were traces of magic, and Valyrian steel armor has a miraculous effect on defense against magic attacks."

"I'll go down first. If you still can't find the black door, you go down with me." Barristan said to Sam.

After finishing speaking, he leaned on the wall of the well with one hand, held the sword in the other, stepped on the wet steps, and walked down step by step.

Dany frowned as she watched the White Knight gradually sink into the darkness, and could only hear the sound of the iron boots touching the stone, making a "click" sound, echoing in the shaft.

Barristan seemed to have come a long, long way, and the waiting time was agonizing. Dany had been hovering on the verge of regret, and several times wanted to shout down to let the old knight come up.

But the bottom of the well is so calm, even the sound of the knight's iron glove scraping on the well wall can be heard, and the previous gust of wind seems to be an illusion.

"No, nothing." Just when Dany was worrying about gains and losses, the old knight's resonant cry came from below.

The sound echoed in the well, and was distorted when it was transmitted to the wellhead.

"Am I coming up?" said the old knight.

"No, let Sam go down, be careful." Dany said.

Under the staring eyes of the Dragon Queen, Sam sighed, and said as if comforting himself: "I didn't break my oath, Your Majesty is too smart to find this place by myself."

These words seemed to have an effect, he regained his vitality, and walked down the stone steps swiftly, with one hand leaning on the wall and the other hanging by his side.

"Seven Hells!" About a quarter of an hour later, the old knight yelled in horror from the bottom of the well.

They have been together for almost two years, and they have seen Valyrian demons and Balerion made up of dragon worms, but Dany has never seen such a terrified Barristan.

He is known as "fearless"!

"There is a door, Your Majesty, there really is a door, Seven Gods! It, it"

"It's talking!!!" Barristan exclaimed, startled.

"Who-who-who-who-who-who-who?" At the same time, a deep but unusually clear echo came from the bottom of the well.

Dany and Aemon turned pale and took a step back in fear.

It was not Barristan's voice, nor Sam's, but a third voice at the bottom of the well.

But only two people went down the well

"I am Barristan Selmy, the Kingsguard of His Majesty Daenerys." Dany heard Barristan stumbling, as if being dominated by someone.

"You—don't—should—come—here!" said the deep voice clearly.

"I" the white knight was at a loss.

"He came with me," said Sam suddenly, "I am the sword in the dark, and the watcher on the Wall. The fire against the cold, the light at dawn, the horn to wake the sleepers, and the shield to guard the kingdom."

—This is the oath of the Night's Watch.

In the afternoon, in the sept, Dany had also witnessed Perestan taking the same oath to the Seven.

After a full 10 minutes, the bottom of the well remained silent, as if the two people had disappeared.

Dany and Aemon looked at each other.

"Dahei!" Dani waved to the black dragon crowded at the door. A moment later, another fireball of dragon flames fell into the mouth of the well, and it stopped after only diving ten meters, because this height was enough for people along the well to see clearly end.

Empty, no door, no one.

Barristan and Sam disappear.

"Uh" Dany once again looked at old Aemon speechlessly.

"Wait and see, since you can go out, you can come back." Old Aemon said.

Then the two stood by the well and waited foolishly.

The moonlight shines through the gap in the roof, casting a layer of silver light on them, and the surroundings are completely silent, even the sound of mice running has disappeared and cannot be heard.

Like invisible arrows, Sen Leng shot down from the huge ice crystal city wall next door, hitting people's knees, lower abdomen, hands, neck, face, ears, piercing into the flesh, piercing into the bone marrow, old Aemon Unable to help, I shivered against the edge of the well.

"Old man, go to the door to warm up." Dani stomped her feet and exhaled white air.

"Hey, I'm old." Aemon didn't insist, and swayed to Dahei's side, leaning on the black dragon's neck and sitting on the package.

"It's so warm." He touched the big black scalding scales and laughed cheerfully.

After waiting for another half an hour, Dany finally couldn't bear it any longer. She untied her backpack, took out a glass candle from inside, locked the soul fragments left on Barristan, and started mental projection.

The east side of the Great Wall is straight like a sword, and the west side is twisted and twisted like a crawling snake.

The land in the north near the Great Wall has flat plains in the east, but hills and canyons in the west. The Great Wall avoids the canyons and rises and falls on the jagged ridges.

At this time, Barristan and Sam were huddled under the steep hill, in the gap between two huge rocks, stomping their feet and breathing heavily.

And not far away, a towering wall of ice crystals blocked their way back south, just as it had done to the wildlings for thousands of years.

"Sir, why don't we go to the woods to find some logs and light them to keep warm?" Sam's eyebrows were covered with frost, and his face seemed to be blown into two balls of red jelly in the cold wind.

"There are strange ghosts in the woods, just wait, His Majesty will come soon." Barristan said wearily.

"How does His Majesty know we are here?"

"Where is the door?"

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from the side. The fat man rubbed his eyes, stared blankly at the Dragon Queen who was curiously knocking on the Great Wall, and said in disbelief: "Your Majesty Daenerys?"

"Where is that door?" Dany asked over her shoulder.

Fat Sam was dazed with shock, but Barristan had long thought that the Dragon Queen would appear in this way, without any surprise, he went straight out from the gap between the boulders, drew a circle on one side of the ice crystal, and said, "Probably around here .”
