Chapter 660 Bunyan's Death
The weather outside the Great Wall is even worse than that south of the Great Wall. The white snow is constantly falling, and the biting cold wind seems to penetrate the clothes.
With the advance of the Night's Watch Legion, the northern border has basically recovered, and with the advance of human soldiers, the cold that enveloped the entire northern land seems to be slowly fading.
This is the only lucky thing out of a thousand unfortunate things.
Some of the human soldiers praised the achievements of the old gods, some believed that the Seven Gods defeated the White Walkers, and a small number of soldiers who converted to the Red God believed that the light defeated the darkness, they were the warriors of the Lord of Light, the northern ones. Ability God is already terrified in the face of their steel-like will.
However, there are at least a few people who think that man will conquer the sky, where do the gods come from? Humans repel the White Walkers by throwing their heads and blood, and only when the whole country is united and all mankind unites can finally defeat the White Walkers.
Everyone has different opinions, but it is an indisputable fact that the north is getting warmer and warmer. Even now, some people from the north who have missed their hometown have begun to embark on the journey of returning home.
But none of this had anything to do with the freezing winds north of the Great Wall.
It is cold all year round here, no matter winter or summer, the existence of the Great Wall blocks the cold wind from going south, but it also keeps winter here forever.
Bun Yang, who left the Great Wall alone and entered outside the Great Wall, rode a thin black-yellow warhorse with a black cloak and a long sword on his waist. At this moment, he was struggling to advance against the white wind and snow.
He plans to rush to Custer's castle to rest for a while today, and then set off for the First Men's Fist Peak and other places tomorrow.
Custer is a wildling who has a tacit cooperation with the Night's Watch. He is responsible for entertaining the Night's Watch, and the Night's Watch allows him to live in the Ghost Forest, which has not been cleared.
Unfortunately, the wind and snow outside the Great Wall was too heavy today, and even the war horse moved forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and even slipped a few times, almost knocking Bunyan off the horse.
"Damn!"
Out of desperation, Bunyan was forced to change his plan, turned his head and ran to Baishu Village, which was closest to him.
This is the closest free village to the Great Wall. Like Custer, they are also savages who do not openly oppose the night watchman, so they are allowed to live in the ghost forest.
With his head on the wind and snow, Bun Yang disappeared into the wind and snow on a thin yellow-black war horse.
But he didn't notice that behind him, a wobbly shadow had found him, and then quietly followed behind him and headed northeast.
Baishu Village is the closest village to the north of the Great Wall of Despair. Although the wind and snow are a bit heavy today, it took Bunyan half a day to get here.
The current wind and snow is too heavy, he must find a suitable foothold to avoid this snowstorm, otherwise he will freeze to death in the wilderness without finding the trace of Lyanna.
Although Bunyan had rich experience living outside the Great Wall and was a senior night watchman, it was precisely because of this that he knew very well that such a snowstorm would definitely be fatal if he didn't have a foothold.
Baishu Village is a village of free people, but now the owners of this place have disappeared.
Bunyan vaguely remembered that King Robert had gone out to slaughter several villages of freedmen when he came to the Great Wall, and even killed the first White Walker, but he forgot that the villagers of Whitetree Village were killed by coalition soldiers. In the hands of wildlings from other tribes, or the hands of the White Walkers.
But there is one outcome that is definitely doomed. They are all dead, no matter who killed them, and they have a common destination, which is to become those 'blue-eyed enemies'.
The scale of Baishu Village is not large. It consists of four single houses surrounded by sheep pens and wells. The houses are made of stone, so they will not be knocked down by the wind. The windows are covered with animal fur to keep warm.
But now the windows of Baishu Village have been broken, and even a house has collapsed, accumulating thick snow.
There was also a giant weirwood in the middle of the village, its branches were pale, its leaves had fallen off, and there was a terrifying cheek on the trunk, and its mouth alone was enough to swallow a whole sheep.
"This weirwood is dead."
Bunyan rode a thin warhorse to Baishu Village. He rode on horseback and looked up at the giant weirwood in front of him.
He could see at a glance that the weirwood had lost all its vitality, and for some unknown reason, an ominous premonition arose in his heart, because the weirwood spread all over the north and beyond the Great Wall, and it was one of the plants that could withstand severe cold. .
"Did it freeze to death?"
"Or is there another reason?"
Bunyan's head was covered with snow and snow, and the gloom accumulated in his heart became deeper and deeper, but at this moment he didn't have time to think about it, and was just about to turn over and dismount.
However, at this moment, the ghoul's attack came very suddenly.
"Ho-"
A zombie with blue eyes and tattered body seemed to appear out of thin air, suddenly let out a terrifying roar, then rushed out from behind a tree beside, and rushed directly towards Bunyan.
The blizzard and snow covered his footprints, and the cold climate annihilated the stench on his body.
However, when suddenly encountered an attack, the Chief Ranger of the Night's Watch Corps naturally reacted quickly.
click -
Bunyan fell off the warhorse, holding a long sword in his backhand and cutting off the arm that the ghoul stretched towards him.
But at this moment, the quiet Baishu Village seemed to come to life suddenly, and the movement of the battle suddenly attracted more ghouls.
They let out a sharp howl as if they were crazy, and then rushed towards Bunyan.
The chief ranger's face was tense, and he slashed and slashed the surrounding ghouls with the long sword in his hand.
puff--
However, it was a pity that he was outnumbered in the end. He chopped down several ghouls in a row, but a ghoul that looked like a woman jumped up from behind and threw himself directly on his back.
The ghoul's legs caught Bunyan's body, opened a bloody mouth with half of his cheek rotted and exposed his black gums, and frantically began to bite his neck.
Bunyan roared in despair, then threw the ghoul off his back, chopped off her head with a sword, and rolled to a far place.
However, her head was still making a terrifying roar, and her body that fell to the ground was also moving around, as if she was still looking for Bunyan's trail.
The chief ranger of the Night's Watch held a long sword to kill the enemy in one hand, and covered the wound on his neck with the other hand, and the blood continued to gush out.
"I'm dying."
Bunyan seemed to have a premonition of his future, he staggered forward a few steps, and in the end, the world was spinning, his eyes were dark, and he fell down in front of the dead giant weirwood.
