Sword and Magic and Taxi

Chapter 231: Samwell Tully

The Black Castle is divided into upper and lower parts, which are respectively located at the foot and on the top of the Great Wall, connected by a lifting system controlled by people and mules, and a set of wooden stairs climbing on the mountain wall. Because it is close to the mountain wall, the wooden stairs are in fact always frozen, even if they walk up with spiked boots, they will always slip, which is scary.

So fat Samwell Tully never dared to walk the steps.

In fact, he dared nothing except reading. Although he was born in Hewan Dijiao Lingcheng, the eldest son and heir to the title of Lord Landau Tali, he is not as brave as his father, let alone a warlord. "I only know that reading, not even a girl!" His father commented on him and forced him to join the Night Watch Corps.

Becoming a night watchman must follow the night watchman's vows, including not inheriting, not marrying, not having children, and guarding the Great Wall until the death. Therefore, Earl Landau can get rid of this eldest son and choose heirs from other sons who are more suitable for him. Sam did not dare to resist and came to the Great Wall obediently. He still can't handle swords well, shoot crossbows well, and without Jon Snow's help he can't even survive the recruit training.

He was given many nicknames, including "Miss Pig", "Master Ham" and so on, just like Jon, who was called "Master Snow". It's the same as "Stupid Bull" Gülen, "Melancholy" Eddie, and "Long Whistle" Piper. They are recruits who have been trained together, and they must also be sworn to become full members of the Night Watch. Thank goodness, Sam thought, this includes himself.

If he leaves the shelter and help of these friends and continues the recruit training alone, he will definitely be tortured to death by Sir Alisha Thorne. He knew that he was not a fighter, but it was too miserable to die because of this, and he should not be. Sam tightened his clothes and stood by the elevator at the top of the Great Wall, waiting for the mule to spin the winch to raise the dangling cage.

"Don't be afraid, no one has ever fallen into a cage and died." He comforted himself like this. But on the other hand, he knew that was not the case. According to the records of the night watchman, forty years ago, seventy-five years ago, 137 years ago, and 452 years ago, night watchmen fell and died. He hates why he can remember so clearly, and why he always remembers it at this time? !

"That chance is too small to happen to you." Sam smiled bitterly, and then his innate sense of fear helped him calculate another chance: the chance of a fat man like him in the night watch. As a result, he found that his own incident seemed to be even more unlikely, but it still appeared...

The hanging cage finally came up, and he stood tremblingly and grabbed the handrail for the first time. If he has ten hands, he must use ten hands to grasp the handrail. "I'll get used to it, I'll get used to..." He comforted himself like this, then pulled the bell, the cage shook abruptly, and then creaked and slowly descended.

The jitter almost made his legs fall. He had to focus on the upcoming oath ceremony and silently take the oath in his heart, hoping that he would not make mistakes in this kind of thing. But the snow flakes kept beating him in the face, interrupting his thoughts time and time again. Maybe not being as cold as others is the only benefit of being a fat man? When Sam thought about this, he happened to see a carriage approaching the castle from a height.

Once or twice a week, there will be carriages from the "Mole Town" to the south for supplies, but it should not be today. Moreover, it didn't seem to be a truck, but a four-wheeled carriage, the kind used only by nobles. Who will be a guest at the Black Castle at this time? Sam thought hard. The most likely to be a member of the Stark family, after all, Jon Snow is also a member of the Stark family. Although he was an illegitimate child, he lived in Winterfell from shortly after his birth until not long ago, with his half-brothers and sisters.

Not a truck means there is no fresh food. Sam’s biggest complaint against the Black Castle is the cafeteria. The cooks there should be competent if they feed the pigs, but they can’t think about it like this. Sam said to himself, if anyone knows, he’s probably the one who cooks. Up. It is even possible that he will be cooked.

After taking the oath, he must assign positions. If he becomes a cook, then he will do another thing he does not know how to do. No matter how he was not loved by his father, he was also the first heir of Jiaoling City, the "big young master". Daily life is taken care of by servants, and things like making a fire and cooking are never considered. He also prayed not to be assigned to rangers, because that meant field patrols and battles, and he couldn't stand it either. However, if you can be assigned with a few friends, especially Jon Snow, then the Rangers are not absolutely unacceptable.

Anyway, I’m not good at it, ha ha... ha ha... Sam wants to laugh but can’t laugh: I should go to study in the city and be a bachelor, it’s a pity...

With mixed thoughts in his mind, he slowly descended into the black castle. This castle, backed by the Great Wall of Impasse, with three stone walls and a wooden gate controlling access, will be his home in the days to come. It only takes a while to swear an oath in the temple to complete the change of identity. There will be another Samwell Tully in the Night's Watch, a fat Sam.

"Hey, Sam, it's not too high, jump down." Piper was on duty at the gondola today. He tilted his head up and joked: "A few parts are frozen. You may shake it up! "

"Thank you Piper, I don't have much mood to laugh today." Sam waited for the basket to stabilize, and his face looked better. "By the way, are you all up? I mean Glenn, Eddie, and Jon."

"No one will sleep in bed. UU reading www.uukanshu.com unless he likes Sir Alisha." Pipe is good at imitating other people's voices, and at this time, he learned Alisha's rough voice and said: "Get up, you fools. The mud in the ground is a hundred times stronger than you!"

The corner of Sam's mouth was slightly tilted, and he reached out to Gang Pu to pat the snow on his shoulder, then pointed to the yard and said, "What's the matter with that car?"

Piper shrugged, whistled, and then shook his head: "I don't know. A young man, who looks very interesting, came to the Black Castle by himself. I guess I will join us too? But, unexpectedly. I found it by myself, which is very strange! Who of us sat in a carriage and let the night watchman pick it from the cells everywhere?"

"I am not, neither is Jon." Sam quickly added, "I mean, we... uh... you..."

"Aha, I understand." Piper waved his hand and said, "But I think the place where you and Jon were before is actually similar to a prison. Isn't it all surrounded by stone walls? How good are we now, only It's stone on three sides, haha."

"Look, the successor is here. Time is almost up, let's go to the temple, don't miss the oath ceremony." Sam dragged Piper and dragged him along. (To be continued.)
