Chapter 231 Sam Well Tali

Black Castle is divided into two parts, located at the foot and top of the Great Wall of Desperation, and is connected by a lifting system controlled by man and mule, as well as a wooden staircase climbing on the mountain wall. Because it is close to the mountain wall, the wooden staircase is always frozen, and even when walking up with nail boots, it always slips, which is very scary.

So the fat Samwell Talley never dared to walk the steps.

In fact, he dared nothing except reading. Although he was born in Hewandijiaoling City and was the eldest son and heir of the lord Earl Landao Tali, he was not as brave as his father, nor was he a warlord. "I only know how to read books, but I am not as good as girls!" His father commented on him and forced him to join the Night Watch Legion.

To become a night watcher, you must follow the oath of the night watcher, including not inheriting, not marrying a wife, not having children, and guarding the Great Wall of Desperate until death. Therefore, Earl of Landao can use this to get rid of this eldest son and choose an heir from other sons who are more in line with his temperament. Sam dared not resist and came to the Great Wall of Desperate. He still couldn't hold the sword and shoot the crossbow. Without Jon Snow's help, he could not even survive the training of a recruit.

He was nicknamed, including "Miss Pig", "Ham Lord", etc., just like Jon, who was called "Master Snow". He was also like "Silly Bull" Glen, "Mourished" Eddie, and "Long Whistle" Piple. They were recruits who received training together and wanted to swear to become official members of the Night Watch. Thank goodness, Sam thought, that included himself.

If he left the protection and help of these friends and continued training for recruits alone, he would definitely be tortured to death by Sir Erisha Thorne. He knew that he was not a warrior, but it was too miserable to die because of this, and he shouldn't have to. Sam tightened his clothes, stood next to the elevator at the top of the Great Wall of Desperation, waiting for the mule to spin the winch and let the swaying hanging cage rise up.

"Don't be afraid, no one has ever fallen and die in a cage." He comforted himself like this. But on the other hand, he knew that this was not the case. According to the records of the Night Watcher, forty years ago, seventy-five years ago, one hundred and thirty-seven years ago, and four hundred and fifty-two years ago, there were Night Watcher who fell and died. He hated why he could remember so clearly, and why did he always remember it at this time?!

"That chance is too small and it won't 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 appearing in the Night Watch. As a result, he found that it seemed that it was even more impossible for him to happen, but it still happened...

The hanging cage finally came up. He stood in tremblingly and grabbed the handrail as soon as possible. If he had ten hands, he would definitely grab the handrail with ten hands. "I will adapt, I will adapt..." He comforted himself like this, then pulled the bell, the hanging cage trembled suddenly, and then slowly descended.

The shaking almost made his legs fall. He had to focus on the oath ceremony that was about to be held, and silently recited the oath in his heart, hoping that he would not make any mistakes in such matters. But the snowflakes kept whipping his face, interrupting his thoughts again and again. Maybe it was not as cold as others, which was the only benefit of being a fat man? When Sam was thinking this way, he happened to see a carriage approaching the castle from a high place.

Once or twice a week, a carriage will be sent from the "Mole Town" to the south, but it should not be today. Moreover, it seems that it is not a truck, but a four-wheeled carriage that the nobles use when traveling. Who would visit Black Castle at this time? Sam thought hard. The biggest possibility is the Stark family, after all, Jon Snow is also a member of the Stark family. Although he is an illegitimate child, he lived in Winterfell shortly after his birth and not long ago, with his "half-mother" brothers and sisters.

Not a truck means there is no fresh food. Sam's biggest complaint to Black Castle is the cafeteria, where the chefs should be competent if they go to feed pigs, but they can't think so. Sam said to himself that if someone knows, he might be the one who goes to cook. It is even possible that he will be cooked into a meal.

After taking the oath, he would be assigned a position. If he became a chef, he would do another thing he would not know. No matter how unloved by his father, he was once the first heir of Jiaoling City, a "big master". His life was taken care of by servants every day, and he would never know how to make a fire and cook. He also prayed not to be assigned to the Rangers, because it would mean patrol and fighting in the field, and he could not bear it. However, if he could be assigned with a few friends, especially Jon Snow, the Rangers were not absolutely unacceptable.

Anyway, I don’t have anything to do with it, haha…haha… Sam wants to laugh but can’t laugh: I should go to the school town to be a bachelor’s degree, a pity…

With a messy thought in his mind, he slowly descended to the Black Castle. This castle, which is backed by the Great Wall of Desperation, has three stone walls and a wooden gate to control entry and exit, will be home in his future days. Just take a while and take the oath in the church, you will be considered as completing the transformation of your identity. The Night Watcher will be one Sam Will Talley, the fat Sam.

"Hey, Sam, it's not too high, jump down." Pipp was on duty at the hanging basket today. He raised his head and joked: "A few parts are frozen, and you might be useful if you shake it hard!"

"Thank you Pipp, I didn't feel too much laughing today." Sam waited for the basket and his face looked better. "By the way, are everyone up? I mean Glen, Eddie and Jon."

"No one will stay in bed unless he falls in love with Sir Elisa." Pipp is good at imitating other people's voices, and then he imitates Elisa's thick voice and said, "Get up, you fools! The mud in the ground is a hundred times better than you!"

Sam's mouth curled slightly, reached out to the gang Pu to pat the snow on his shoulder, then pointed to the yard and said, "What's going on with that car?"

Pipp shrugged, whistled, and shook his head: "I don't know either. A young man, who looks quite interesting, came to Black Castle alone. I guess he is going to join us too? But it's strange that he actually found it himself! Who of us was not in a carriage and asked the night watchmen to pick it from the prison cells everywhere?"

"I'm not, not Jon." Sam quickly added: "I mean, we...uh...you..."

"Ahh, I understand." Pipp waved his hand and said, "But I think the place you and Jon were actually similar to the prison. There are stone walls on all sides, right? How good we are now, there are only stones on three sides, haha."
