Dawn of the Grey Tower Chapter 47

The distance between the town of Zhuoliu and the Valley City is not far away, and because the town of Zhuoliu is on the road that must be passed south by the Earl of Saron, there is a great price from the valley city that was laid by the Earl of Salon. The masonry road can be reached directly. Do n't underestimate this brick road. In this era, the lords can also use the achievements to prevent the people in the territory from starving to death. Most lords do n't talk about actively building their own territory. They want to take all the territory. Valuable things are stolen into his castle, and then the door is tightly locked. In such an environment, one can imagine how valuable a road paved by horses and pedestrians can be quickly supervised by the lord. This passage, named the Dragonmaw Trail, was also an important part of the War Valley's wartime supply line, but more often, it was responsible for 50% of the cargo flow in the Earl of Saron.

"Actually I want to ask long ago, let alone the Dragon Blood Stream. If the Longji Mountain Range is really a dragon, this river is justified because it originated from the Longji Mountain. But why even this one was built later The road must be named the Dragon Throat Trail? How much did the person who named this road like the dragon? "The horse asked him to ride the horse on the road, and the cheese asked, if the mage would not study anything for a while I felt uncomfortable there. Moreover, perhaps it is a professional habit. Cheese always thinks that the name of a thing and its meaning should be related. Such a naming behavior can only make other people feel troubled. In his view, the place name should be easy to identify and Memory, so instead of calling the Dragon Throat Trail, it's as simple as calling Salon Avenue.

In fact, the question that the mage inadvertently asked was really an allusion to the North, but just like most of the allusions in the North, the two sides in this story are the Salon family and their imaginary enemy, the Frost Guardian, as the Lord of the Earl . Although both Elsa and Gloria know this story, but as the two parties in the story, they are not good to speak in front of each other, especially the stories they heard from their parents or others There is some kind of ridicule to each other in the version. So after the cheese asked no one to answer him, Lyon, who was not from the North, answered the mage's doubts.

"Simply put, it's actually very simple. When the previous generation Earl of Saron made a great speech when he built this road, he said that with this road, it will make Valley City as firm as a pliers. Live the throat of the Frost Guardian. So I named this road simply the Dragon Throat Trail. "This short version has omitted all the parts that can be omitted. After all, Lyon does not really look at the atmosphere, he I have skipped all the small details that may be controversial, and the story that can be blown in the bar for a night has become a short sentence in the knight's mouth.

But even so, the three from Longji Mountain all made a contemptuous look at this story, and they have always disdain the southern nobles for the excessive prevention of the Northerners. Of course, Gloria couldn't understand the boss lady's thoughts. In fact, the count's daughter had previously felt that the nobility of the nobles in the northern realm was really overly hostile to the Frost Guard. But as an out-and-out southern nobleman, Gloria did not dare to say anything. She was afraid that she would make a mistake and make the Frost Guards angry.

But the mage didn't seem to notice the atmosphere in the team. The cheese thought for a while and continued to ask.

"Although I know that the transportation of the march to the house of war is very important, but this is only a transportation line, and it is still an open transportation line. If war really happens, Frost will never let this road pass freely. The last term Why is Earl of Saron so confident? "

"Is this ..." Well, the origin of this Dragon Throat Trail is just a chat after dinner for most people. Few people will go into the true original appearance of this story like a cheese. In fact, even Lyon, as a military personnel, probably has a very strategic value in understanding this path. So the knight of the kingdom cannot answer the mage's question.

But Gloria is different. The last generation Earl of Saron who built the Dragonmaw Trail is her grandfather. As a military aristocrat, the family style of the Salon family is still very strict. In order to prevent threats from the Northlanders, each Earl of Salon must undergo strict military training, and all successive heirs must also obtain the title. Serve in other troops in the kingdom. In short, this family tradition keeps the Salon family from being as chaotic as other nobles in the family relationship, at least there will be no plot of blood like a **** child today and a new lady tomorrow. Thanks to this, Gloria's relationship with her grandfather is also very good. As the earliest and only female heir of this generation of counts, Gloria has been very popular with Count Saron since childhood. Because of this, the grandfather never told Gloria as a child some stories he had experienced or heard, so she could answer the questions of cheese.

"I remember my grandfather mentioned it to me once, he said it, he said ... yes! Grandfather said that this road was blessed when it was built, so as long as the valley city is still there Under the guard of the Salon family, this road will never be destroyed! "

"How can there be a road that will not be destroyed, but a story of coaxing a child." "Monkey" whispered aside. Others, including the Knights of the Kingdom, actually told Gloria what they thought. This is a story made up by the old man when he coaxed his granddaughter. There is no credibility.

"Blessing? No wonder ..." But the cheese in the crowd didn't think so. The reason why the mage put the topic on the name of this road naturally has his intentions. Now Gloria mentioned that this road has been blessed, which also confirmed his conjecture.

"Oh, Lyon, you mentioned that too many refugees fled to the town of Zhuoliu, so that you have to plan a piece of land outside the town to resettle them, right?" The cheese suddenly asked.

Blood lion was a little puzzled after all, after all, these were indeed mentioned by the mage before.

"Yes, those refugees have obvious dark spots, and they are accompanied by fever and cramps. I think some of them must have become ratmen, so that those pharmacists can reach those absurd conclusions. Now, judging from the killing order, these refugees may have been more and more fierce ... "The topic mentioned the killing order again, and Lyon's tone dropped involuntarily. The thought of slaughtering those poor refugees is likely to be a member of the remaining Knights of the Kingdom, and this knight is not feeling well.

"That makes sense!" Who thought the cheese said a little excitedly after hearing Lyon's words. This caused a moment of consternation to the people around.

"What makes sense?" Elsa asked.

The Master apparently figured out something. UU reading www.uukanshu.com had a glow of excitement in his eyes, and he explained at a very fast speed.

"Actually, Lyon told me the situation of Zhuoliu Town before. I felt that something was wrong. The number of refugees they received was too large. You know, the outbreak of the rat plague is extremely fatal. In the case of illness, I believe that most of the infected people are not able to walk to the border by themselves, not to mention inferring from the conditions along the road that the earliest occurrence of native ratmen may be earlier than the arrival of those refugees. In the case of ratmen raging It is impossible for these refugees infected with the virus to reach Zhuoliu Town so smoothly. Unless ... "

"Unless what?" At this point, everyone's attention was attracted by the mage. Indeed, it is indeed too much to carefully recall the number of refugees received by Zhuoliu Town. Lyon didn't know the terrible situation of the plague at that time, but only assumed it as an ordinary lethal infectious disease, but now it seems that perhaps the wishful thinking at that time was a bit untenable.

"Unless this road does have some power to protect the people above it." The mage continued.

"This is impossible! How can a road protect pedestrians ... you mean, that so-called blessing?"

Qi nodded. He recalled that Heather had told him the situation of accepting refugees in the western border. There were no exceptions and few of them. The captain used to describe the number of refugees who fled to the western border. Compared with the number of people who fled to the southern border, even if there is a difference on the way, but the number of refugees is indeed very different.

"Anyway, I think we will know the answer soon." The mage said, tightening the reins, turning over and dismounting. He had to study carefully what kind of mystery there was on this dragon throat trail. Because it is very likely to help him find an opportunity to treat humans infected by the plague.
