Chapter 236

Xiong opened the note and began to announce his position to each recruit. Sam has become a affairs officer. His specific job is to take care of master Yimeng. This is the best arrangement he can think of. Glen and Piper joined the Rangers, which was their wish, and they were very excited about it. But Jon Snow, who had always wanted to be a Ranger, was assigned to the office of affairs officer to serve old bear Mormon.

This means that he has to carry water, make meals, wash clothes, burn fire, run errands and deliver letters for him. It means that he can't become the "real soldier" of the Rangers like his uncle whom he has always admired. Moreover, he thinks that he is qualified as a Ranger in fencing, riding, shooting and tactics.

Officer? After the others left, he sat in the holy hall with Samuel Talley and the eloquent singer daileen, still in a trance. The official is a servant. Sam wants to serve the bachelor. Dalien wants to go to donghaiwang to serve the merchant, and he also wants to serve others.

He was so dissatisfied with the result that he almost left angrily. There is no place for the stark family to have illegitimate children, at least in Mrs. Stark's eyes. The night watchman is his last hope for success. He doesn't want to cut cream, sew clothes and spend his life like a girl.

He left the temple with grief and bewilderment, and Sam went with him. This rare Tali wise man will admonish his good friend and let him understand the deep meaning behind his arrangement: he follows Xiong all day and night. Although he really needs to wait on him, Jon will be with him when he makes every decision, holds every meeting, arranges affairs, arranges battles and patrols, and even writes letters to princes of the seven countries Next to you. "Jon, his purpose is to bring his" successor "with him so that you can learn from his observation. He wants to train you to be the successor to the commander in chief."

Jon is just an underage child. When he thinks about it calmly, he knows that his friend is right. He is too childish to understand the deep meaning of this arrangement. He would feel ashamed and embarrassed after he thought about it, but he would also try to be a good affairs officer and let himself grow up as soon as possible.

The night watchmen were busy arranging the positions of the recruits, while Zhao Mai had nothing to do. Xiong said at the meeting that he was a guest, but black castle did not arrange a guest room for him. Zhao maixinxu: maybe when they are not too busy, it's better to ask general affairs director Bowen? But now, it's better to wait and see the swearing in ceremony.

After a period of time, one after another, some recruits came back to the temple and took sacred vows in front of the seven gods under the guidance of friar seleda. Zhao Mai has been waiting to see a scene, so no matter what others say, he just doesn't move.

The oath is solemn and powerful, "the long night is coming. I will watch from now on until I die. I will not marry, I will not seal land, I will not have children. I will not wear a crown, I will not fight for glory. I will do my duty and die here. I am the sword in the dark, the guard on the Great Wall, the flame against the cold, the light at dawn, the horn to wake the sleepers, and the shield to guard the kingdom. I give my life and glory to the night watchman. It's like this tonight. It's like this every night. "

Zhao Mai is not sure whether the seven gods shine down, but the power of the desperate Great Wall has a reaction. A part of the powerful magic wall is transformed into a rune, which falls from the sky, penetrates into the watchman's chest, and then disappears. There is not only the power of authentication, but also the ability of witness. In a short moment, Zhao Mai can only feel this situation, no matter how detailed it is.

Oath is a powerful force, and the night watchman's oath is more unusual. Zhao Mai guessed that if he disobeyed the oath, such a powerful magic creation as the great wall of doom would surely react. Since there is a real connection between this oath and the Great Wall, it proves from the side that his theory of through the wall is tenable. What night watchmen do and say can be sensed by the great wall of despair, so the "remote door opening" has a foundation for its realization.

It's not difficult to be a night watchman. They are short of people now! Only three of the 19 castles are permanent. Now the size of the night watchmen is less than one tenth of that in the past, and the defense line of the desperate Great Wall is full of loopholes. Zhao Mai thinks that his skill can pass the training easily, but Alisha can't help him. But this step of swearing made Zhao Mai a little worried. God knows what else the power of swearing includes?!

What happens when you break your oath and become a deserter? Zhao Mai thought, it seems that no one can have a good end, how much of this is self blame, how much is caused by magic? No wife, no land, no children. Dad can beat himself to death without the help of ghosts. Zhao Mai shook his head when he thought of it. He would rather give up all the learning opportunities here than take this oath.

With this preparation in mind, Zhao Mai left the temple. The night watchman of the black castle looked at him curiously as an outsider, while he looked at the great wall of despair curiously. He can't even get to the foot of the Great Wall, let alone touch it, if he leaves the car. Zhao Mai just made a little attempt, and was immediately disturbed by the endless cold, and his whole body began to become stiff.

It's a state in which the natural force and psychic powers are frozen, like death. It can only be resolved by withdrawing in a hurry, or there are no sequelae after it is resolved. Therefore, for him, the great wall of hopelessness can only be viewed from a distance, but not profaned."What are you looking at? Do you want to go up and have a look? " The speaker was "sad Eddie", whose full name was actually Addison Tollett, a grey haired attendant with a naturally depressed face. "I've been wondering whether it's more terrible to wait under the wall to be crushed to death or to stand on it to fall to death."

"You can only die once, so you'll never know." Zhao Mai replied.

"So that's why you want to go up and look under the wall and come down after you go up?"

"In fact, if you stay at half the height of the Great Wall, do you think you will be killed first by smashing or falling?" Zhao Mai thought the man was very interesting, so he said on purpose.

Eddie shrugged his shoulders and said, "maybe I'll die of freezing or starvation first, don't you think?"

Zhao Mai shook his head, he did not know how to answer, can only change the topic: "have you taken the oath?"

"I'm going, sooner or later." Eddie curled his lips and pointed to Zhao Mai's carriage: "did you bring anything delicious from the south? I see you're here for business. We night watchmen are very willing to accept bribes. "

"After you have taken the oath, can you say to me: 'I allow you to pass through the great wall of despair'

"It's not a big problem. A whole Ham will do. I'm not demanding." Eddie sniffs.

Zhao Mai clapped high five with him, then went to the night watchman's kitchen with the money bag, and bought a whole ham for 30 times the price outside. After a while, Eddie came over, necking.

"I allow you to pass through the great wall of despair." He said solemnly, then reached for the ham.

Zhao Mai thanks him and goes to the Great Wall. This time he was able to get close, even touch the Great Wall, but still could not pass. Eddie's words do work, but he's just a new recruit. His class is too low.

"Mr. Xiong, it seems that I have to rely on you." Zhao Mai rubbed his nose and left the cold wall.
