Chapter 68 The Secret Path
"Hey, Clem, you've never been worried, will I report you directly?"

Hearing Clay's words, Gray didn't respond directly, but asked him back.

"If you don't report us, you can get promoted and get rich.

Report us, as long as one of us escapes, you have to worry about yourself all the time, when will the whole family die in your sleep like Janos Slynt.

After all, the North never forgets! "

When Clay heard the words, he didn't threaten viciously, but just told a fact in a flat tone with a deadpan expression.

But what he said made Gray's hair stand on end, he forced a smile and said: "A notice was sent today, half of the manpower will be allocated to assist in the search, and I can just arrange for you to go to change the guard in the early morning. "

"Then, let's have fun first! After all, it's still a while before the changing of the guard.

Lord Gray, you made a fortune today, shouldn't you treat me to dinner?
Usually, it's my treat! "

When Clay heard this, a smile instantly bloomed on his face, and he spoke in the tone of an old friend.

Gray wiped it secretly, sweating on his brow, and replied: "No problem, let them in, you choose!"

The five of Clay stayed here until close to the early morning before packing their clothes and going to the south tower to change the guard.

When the five of them arrived at the south tower, forty golden robes happened to be changing the guard in the open space under the tower.

"Vice-Captain Gray!"

Seeing Gray leading people approaching, the golden robes immediately saluted him.

"Hmm! Blake, Darth... and the other five are on duty with me.

The rest went home to rest.Tomorrow morning, go to Flea Bottom to assist in the search for Robb Stark. "

Hearing that they still called him vice-captain, Grai replied arrogantly, and then ordered.

As soon as Gray's order was issued, apart from the five people he designated by name, the other gold robes immediately started talking in low voices.

How simple and easy it is to stand guard at the Nancheng Tower!

It was tiring and dangerous to search for Robb Stark, whose reputation was spreading all over King's Landing.

In the past two days, the number of Jinpao who died on duty was the sum of the previous years.

Seeing that Grai had appointed his younger brothers, someone in the golden robe asked, "Vice-captain Grai, I heard that the city guard only needs to send half of the people to search.

Why do we need so many people here? "

"The king's funeral will be held tomorrow, and some of the gold robes that were searched before will go to maintain order.

Therefore, the city guards deployed more people to assist in the search. This was an order from the Red Castle. "

"But……"

"It's nothing! The captain was killed by Robb Stark, and I'm the captain here now.

Those who disobey the orders of their superiors will be sent to the dungeon of the Red Castle. "

After Gray explained, seeing that they still wanted to say more, he immediately frowned, showing off his official authority and using his power to suppress others.

"Yes……"

These golden robes looked at each other and replied weakly.

After the 35 gold robes changed their guards, they each walked towards their homes.And Gray led the nine Clays into the South Tower.

After taking iron-tipped spears and standard long swords from the arsenal, they boarded the tower and started today's guard.

The job of the city guard is really easy, and Gray and the others chatted and bragged, talking about dirty topics with color.

Time passed slowly, and before dawn, Robb, who was covered with ice and dressed in a black robe, came to the residential area of ​​the North Tower corresponding to the South Tower.

As soon as he entered the residential area, an eight or nine-year-old boy came to him and extended his right hand to him.

Robb skillfully took out a silver deer from his pocket and gave it to him. After he got the silver deer, he pointed to the front and walked forward.

Robb, knowing that he was leading the way, followed him directly and silently.

After winding around this residential area for a while, they came to a house in the middle of the north gate of the Red Castle and the north tower.

Squeak!

The little boy directly pushed open the unlocked door, entered it, proficiently lay down on the ground and fumbled a few times, lifted a wooden board, and jumped in.

Secret passages!

Varys has controlled all the secret passages of the Red Castle for many years, and many of his important information were obtained and passed on by the little bird through these secret passages.

Without any hesitation, Robb jumped in.

If Varys wanted to harm him, he would have had a chance long ago, and he would not wait until now.

This is a stone tunnel nearly two meters high and one meter wide.

At intervals in the tunnel, there is a small oil lamp on the wall.Dim yellow lights allow people to roughly see the road under their feet.

The little boy directly in front of him, seeing Robb standing still, was waving at him vigorously.

Robb did not continue to observe the tunnel, but walked forward.The secret passages under the Red Castle are like spider webs, intertwined in an orderly manner.

Passing through the stone tunnel and walking through some earth holes supported by wood, for about 10 minutes, the little boy finally stopped and pointed at Robb above his head.

Robb looked up, and there was a square tunnel seventy centimeters wide above his head. A row of iron handles started from the tunnel wall and extended upward into the darkness.

This overhead tunnel should be very long, relying on the dim light of the small oil lamp, you can't see the end at all.

Walking all the way here, Robb didn't hesitate, just when he was about to take action.

The little boy grabbed the hem of his black robe, bent his fingers and knocked on the door twice and knocked on the door three times in a row.

This should be the signal given by Varys, Robb nodded, grabbed the iron handle and climbed up.

Dark, depressing, irritating!

Humans like light. After climbing in the narrow and dark tunnel for nearly 10 minutes, Robb kept having negative emotions in his heart.

Suppressing these negative emotions, and climbing up again for a few minutes, Robb's hand finally touched an iron cover above.

dong dong dong, dong dong dong!
Squeak!

According to the secret signal taught by the little boy, after knocking on the iron cover, the iron cover opened with a slight sound, and a bright light made Robb's eyes, which had been in the dark, a little stinging.

"Master Robb, welcome to the Prime Minister's Tower!"

Before Robb opened his eyes, Varys' soft voice came to his ears.He closed his eyes, waited for a while, and when he opened them, his eyes finally adjusted to the light.

I saw Varys with a beard all over his face, wearing a black jailer uniform, with a long sword pinned to his waist, and holding a flaming torch, looking at him with a smile.

Robb climbed out of the tunnel in two steps, stood up, and asked Varys: "Master Varys, every time I see you, you are in a different disguise.

By the way, why did we go to the Prime Minister's Tower instead of the black cell? "

"Lord Robb, you are really eager to see Lord Ed!
That secret road can only enter the Prime Minister's Tower from outside the city, and the secret road to the black prison is also in this Prime Minister's Tower. "

"What are you waiting for? Let's go!"

Hearing Varys' answer, Robb frowned and said immediately.

"Well, please follow me!"

Seeing Robb's eagerness, Varys shook his head, turned and led him the way.

They are now in the bedroom of the Prime Minister's Tower, passing through the corridor to the meeting hall of the Prime Minister's Tower.

The area of ​​the meeting hall is not very large, and the surrounding gold-framed round windows are carved with crowned stags.The Myr carpet with the crowned stag also covered the entire hall.

In the middle of the hall was a large dark red long table, and seven high-backed wooden chairs were placed beside the long table.

Varys took out a dagger from his bosom, lifted the carpet beside the long dark red table, and pried lightly against a stone slab below, a new secret passage appeared before Robb's eyes.
