"A thousand roads into the mountains, three roads out of the mountains." This is how the wise men of Essos described the Mountains of Bones.

There are many roads leading into the mountains, and many passages across the mountains, but most of them are deceptive dead ends, and many more are inhabited by terrifying creatures or evil lurking in the shadows.

Under the wise advice of the white-haired old man, the Sauter tribe retreated to the east of Vaes Dothraki, hoping to meet reinforcements there.

After they safely passed the pass between the Skeleton Mountains and the Holy Mother Mountain, they gradually slowed down. Unexpectedly, Hasha led his troops to catch up again, and they fled into the mountains in a panic.

After leaving the grassland for a long time, they kept climbing up. The road was very difficult and rugged, and the highs and lows made people feel quite upset.

At this time, they looked back at the land they were galloping on before, which had been far away under their feet. Even further to the west, everything melted into the blue horizon.

Sotekao and all his men held the horses without saying a word. They scratched their heads and couldn't figure out where Harsha had recruited the reinforcements. In the end, they could only place their hatred on Ofo who was stationed at the Silver Sea Camp. .

It is getting colder and colder on the mountain, and the cold wind blowing through the cracks in the rocks is getting more and more shrill. No one dares to speak loudly, because the tranquility in the mountain does not like to be disturbed. The scorching sun in summer will melt the snow on the top of the mountain and let the stones It became loose, and then rolled down with earth-shattering momentum.

They were lucky enough to sometimes fly over their heads, where only strong winds and rock cracks had the privilege of making sounds.

"Father, we can't go on like this!"

Sotkaao shuddered, feeling very frustrated, and said to the white-haired old man unhappily.

His hair and body were covered with dried blood, and he looked very embarrassed. During the meeting outside the "Mamen" of the holy city, Hasha and the thousands of households under his command dishonorably used swords and force to kill all of him. Bloodriders and half of the bandits, these bloodstains were left at that time, which was also the main reason why they were forced to evacuate.

"Okay, if you know what to do, take us away from the pursuers!"

The white-haired old man known as "Father" gasped in response. He sat leaning against the rock wall and didn't want to move.

Sotkao remained silent and did not argue with the white-haired old man because he had to rely on the other person's wisdom.

Most importantly the Supreme Father ruled over Shamiliana, Kayakayanaya and their other sister city Baya Sabhad.

Some of the female warriors in the tribe are his bloodriders and subordinates, and some are his Khaleesi, but they also have a common identity, they are all the daughters of their superior father.

"Send more cavalry down the mountain along the same route! No matter what, we have to contact the Juggesnai people." The white-haired old man suggested helplessly.

As the ruler of the end of the three roads out of the mountain, he naturally understood that even if the enemy was still stationed at the foot of the mountain, the scouts could only return along the original route, otherwise they would be lost in the mountain and they would never be able to join the reinforcements.

Sotekao nodded in agreement, and then made a gesture. The subordinates around him saluted the two of them, and immediately left the place to convey the order.

The Juggsnais are also a nomadic people living on the continent of Essos. To the east of the Skeleton Mountains is the great sand sea left behind after the demise of the country descended from Helcolon. Going further east is where this nation lives. Gosnay Plain.

The two rested for a while and continued to lead the tribe, leaving enough signs for the scouts sent out along the way.

They must find a shelter before nightfall, otherwise, everyone will spend a dangerous and cold night.

Along the way, perhaps because he felt that his words just now were too strong, the father said to Sotkaao affectionately:

"Don't give up, we still have time and opportunity to take back your holy city."

"The Dothraki have plundered riches for thousands of years and can satisfy the most greedy people. They can hire not only one Jaha, but ten Jaha towers."

The Juggsnai are similar to the Dothraki. They are barbaric people, warriors on horseback. However, their tribe is smaller than the Dothraki tribe. It is called "fall". Most of them are maintained by blood relations. The leader who leads wars and raids is called "Jaha", and all Jaha need to accept the leadership of "Jahata".

These comforts from the father seemed to be spoken to themselves, but also seemed to be addressed to Sotka'o. At this time, they had climbed over a snow-covered rock wall and walked into a building that appeared in the setting sun. Gray-brown forest.

The forest is in a long and narrow valley, deeply surrounded by mountains. Two branches emerge from here, extending westward into the grassland. There are no human footprints here, and it is much warmer than the top of the mountain. , there is even some grass for the war horses to chew.

"This is it." Father said tremblingly, "It's getting late now, and we can't find a way out."

"Okay." Sotekaao replied expressionlessly.

He covered his waist and abdomen, which was slowly leaking blood, with one hand, and got on his horse. A Kaa who cannot ride a horse is not a real Kaa.

Then he reached into the leather bag tied in front of the saddle, took out a dagger, handed it to the subordinate next to him, and ordered him to carry out the task of arranging the camp.

This Kou's Kas was weak and had never been valued by the tribe. He had never received such an important task, so he couldn't believe his eyes and took the dagger with extremely respectful hands.

As soon as he got the token, he put his head in front of Sauter's saddle and shouted:

"Dear Kaa, may the horse god bless you and be healthy!"

After saying that, he fell down in front of the horse again, and then slowly retreated. Sauter and his father were left alone at the edge of the forest. He looked at the gray and ominous clouds in the east that gradually covered the peak, as if he was being affected by a helpless force or force. Disaster drives there.

He felt an extreme pain in his heart, an unprecedented humiliation.

A few days ago, he was still the Sot Khal who crisscrossed the Dothraki sea and the stone road, and the mere mention of his name would make the nobles of nearby city-states tremble.

Now, the scene at that time seems to have happened many years ago. They were isolated and helpless in the barren mountains. Although they could see the peak of the Notre Dame Mountain to the north, they seemed so far away from success. distant.

The morale of the army has fallen to the bottom. He has defeated and trampled many people before. Now, he has been defeated and trampled by others. For him, this is an extraordinary thing, just like the order of the entire world. Turned upside down.

Next, you have to cooperate with foreign races in order to gain a chance of survival, and you may even have to obey their orders.

When he thought of this, the wounds on his waist and abdomen became numb, but he groaned in pain inside, like a wolf howling after being hit by an arrow.

Sotekao made a decision silently. A king always has to choose between humiliation and death, but not only is his body made of iron, but his will is also made of iron. He knows how to make others surrender, and he also knows what he should do. How to surrender.
