The horse-faced girl was none other than Arya.
She had been a cat by the canal, watching the Dragon Queen in the crowd.
Even after the Dragon Queen closed the door to the inn, she did not leave. The cat was working as a helper at the docks of Drowning Town. She wanted to know more about the Megalosaurus!
Well, that black dragon was almost the same as the demonic dragon in Old Nan's story. It fulfilled all her fantasies about the Megalosaurus.
She wanted to see a dragon.
The Dragon Queen was at the inn. That black dragon that had flown off somewhere would come back. She wanted to see it again.
A small hand grabbed her wrist. It was her senior sister, Waifu.
Waifu was a pale-faced girl who looked no more than ten years old. Her cheeks were sunken, and she was thin and weak. She looked malnourished.
But this little girl was older than Arya's mother. She was thirty-six this year.
The strange poison of the House of Black and White had fixed her appearance and body shape to that of a ten-year-old.
"The kind man is looking for you. As the former Stark, you should know your greatest enemy," Waifu said.
"Who?" Arya asked in surprise.
Then she seemed to think of something. She shook her head and denied it. "You've got the wrong person. I'm not Stark. I'm the cat by the canal. I work for the fishmonger Brusco. I don't have any enemies. "
Waifu stared at her for a long time. Then she nodded. "Yes, you are the cat. The kind man wants you to remember someone. The King of the North, Stark's mortal enemy. Are you willing to go? "
"I …" Arya turned around and looked at the blurry figure of the woman by the window on the third floor of the Green Eel Inn. Her hesitation turned into determination. "Do you want to see Danny Lys Targaryen? I'll go. "
Then Erya and Waifu put on black and white robes and entered the True Dragon Courtyard as the kind old man's maids.
.....
Danny was surprised by the horse-faced Arya's appearance. Erya also recognized Danny — the beautiful knight she had seen in her dream.
Involuntarily, her eyes began to flicker, and a strange expression appeared on her face.
She recalled the female knight's warning to her that day. "You're a shapeshifter, a wolf spirit. When you're in the wolf dream state, you must remember the taboo of a wolf spirit. Don't eat human flesh, don't deny your instincts, don't indulge in things that don't belong to humans …"
Her long horse-like face began to turn red and hot. She had eaten people before and was addicted to it.
Luckily, I was in my wolf form and she didn't recognize me, Erya thought with relief.
The hooded old man noticed Arya's awkwardness, but he only frowned and didn't pay much attention to it.
Well, he thought that "Kitty" was starting to bring in the identity of "Arya Stark."
It would be strange if Stark's heart was as calm as still water when he saw Targaryen.
And this was exactly his goal.
"This nameless man greets Your Majesty Daenerys." The old man walked to Dani's side and bowed respectfully to her.
One old man and two young. The robes of the three faceless people were very distinctive. The right half was black, and the left half was white.
What was even more distinctive was the old man's face. The moment he lifted his hood, Danny almost screamed.
What a face that was!
His skin was rotten and peeling off. The white tendons and red flesh showed the gray of a dead person. The bridge of his nose, forehead, chin, and other angular parts revealed golden skulls.
Right in front of Dani, a white maggot the size of a finger wriggled its way out of the eye socket.
What the f * ck!
She cursed in her heart and almost shouted out loud.
But in the next moment, in the blink of an eye, the old man's face changed. It was an ugly face with angry eyes.
A big "what" flashed in Danny's mind.
In the next moment, just as she suspected that there was something wrong with her eyes, she blinked again and the old man's face changed again.
A serious and rigid old man with a white beard.
So, she blinked again.
A mean old man's face.
Blink again.
A dull old man's face.
Blink again.
An expressionless old man's face.
Blink again.
An old man with an extremely faint smile.
.....
In this way, Danny kept blinking, and the old man's face kept changing, from extremely terrifying to amiable.
In the end, he became the kindest old man in Danny's eyes.
Looking at that face, the hostility in Danny's heart gradually disappeared.
"Amazing." She closed her eyes and said sincerely, "Your Excellency High Priest's face changing technique is at the peak of perfection. I'm amazed."
To be honest, even a master of Sichuan opera couldn't compare to this old faceless man (ps). It was too real. His expression was as vivid as a real person's. It was almost impossible to tell that it was a fake face with the naked eye.
The old faceless man smiled indifferently, with obvious pride in his eyes.
Since he knew the purpose of today's negotiation, how could the faceless man not show off his skills?
What's more, a certain queen had just used Astapo's dog to insult the famous faceless man.
"However, many times, we don't judge a person by his face." Danny was unwilling to let the old man leave after showing off.
"For example, Astapo's dog can detect a person's aura and good and evil emotions. As long as it's an assassin, there will be malice in his heart. "
Uh, she said it again.
Let Astapo's dog see a ghost!
"Dragon Queen's words are very true." The kind old man's heart was filled with hatred, but the kind smile on his face continued, giving people a feeling like a spring breeze.
Danny's expression froze. She suddenly realized that she only felt kindness and peace from the old man, and even a feeling of closeness.
But people with normal IQ knew that the old man must have hostility and killing intent towards her.
This, could it be that faceless people are also divided into levels?
Could it be that Erya killed the Night King not because the scriptwriter was retarded, but because she had reached the highest level of faceless, and could even hide the aura of a living person and the killing intent in her heart?
Danny was a little uncertain.
"Your Majesty, you came to me to ask about the assassination of you, right?" The kind man continued to smile kindly, and then said kindly, "You captured the nameless person in the Great Pyramid of Astapo, and then released her.
So, I don't have to deny the failure of the Black and White School. Yes, we intended to assassinate you, but unfortunately failed. "
"Unfortunately?" Danny's face was gloomy.
"Your Majesty, please believe me, the Black and White School has no malice to you, they are just doing things for money." The person who looked at the key handed over a ball of kindness and said with a smile.
Danny was so angry that she laughed, "Killing me is not malice?"
"The person who wants to kill you is the employer. Assassins are like swords, although they kill people, they don't have a personal will. "The person who looked at the key explained.
The kind man was very dissatisfied with the statement of the person who looked at the key. Although he was talking about the nature of assassins, faceless people did not put themselves in the category of assassins.
They were organized, had beliefs, and had lofty ideals. They were an orthodox religious group.
So, he turned his head and looked at the fat man beside him. His kind face instantly turned into a serious and rigid face. Danny, who had been staring at him, was shocked again. She wondered if she was a little old and dizzy.
He didn't blink, but she still couldn't see his change of face!
The serious man said, "Your Excellency Bersalo, you have misunderstood the doctrine of the God of a Thousand Faces. All mortals have to die, and all mortals have to serve.
Death is a merciful relief. The nameless people are not assassins, they only represent the relief of the God of a Thousand Faces.
Moreover, the nameless people never selfishly give out gifts, nor do they actively choose to kill people. The nameless people are only the servants of the God of a Thousand Faces. "
What he said was the truth of a lifetime.
At least the explanation of the doctrine of the God of a Thousand Faces that faceless people believed in was not wrong.
The assassination of faceless people was regarded as a sacred ceremony, just like the baptism of Christians.
Death is a merciful relief. Does it sound like nonsense and perverted?
This started with the birth of faceless people.
For some unknown reason, Valleglia plundered slaves from all over the world and crazily excavated the fourteen fire peaks.
The fourteen fire peaks were active volcanoes sealed by Valleglia's witchcraft.
Active volcanoes!
Just imagine, you can guess how harsh the environment inside the mine was.
It was said that the strongest slave miners could hardly live for more than a month.
Living so miserably, it was better to die happily.
As a result, the people who couldn't bear it, but were unwilling to kill themselves, brought death to the slaves.
They were the first faceless people.
At that time, death was really a merciful relief.
But this doctrine was now … Not to say that it was inappropriate, at least ordinary people couldn't accept it, and couldn't understand it.
It was undeniable that in any society, in any environment, there were people who couldn't see past it.
But the people who were assassinated by faceless people, 99% of them didn't want to die, and they didn't think that death was a merciful relief.
Anyway, Dragon Queen was living well, very happy, and wanted to live for another five hundred years!
Not only that, even the person who looked at the key twisted his fat face.
"Hey, Your Excellency Priestess, the way you talk nonsense with a serious face is really … annoying!" Danny leaned on the back of the wooden chair and lazily said.
The kind person didn't speak, but his face changed, becoming a terrible angry face that could only be seen in nightmares.
"Dani, such words should not come out of the mouth of a queen, especially when you are facing a highly respected high priestess." The Sea King's face was stern as he spoke in a serious tone as if he was an elder.
"Do you want to die?" Danny squinted at him from the corner of her eyes.
The old Sea King was so angry that his face turned white. He pointed at Danny with a trembling hand, trembling and unable to say a word.
The chief swordsman suddenly stood up and coldly stared at the Dragon Queen, saying, "Are you threatening His Majesty the Sea King?"
Danny spread her hands and said innocently, "Everyone saw that even the Sea King is old and suffering from illness every moment, but he still doesn't want to die, and doesn't think that death is a merciful relief.
As the saying goes, don't do to others what you don't want done to yourself, don't you understand this principle? "
"I …" The Sea King's face turned purple. He glared at the frivolous Dragon Queen and said, "I respect the God of Thousand Faces, but I also have my own beliefs."
"The problem is, I don't believe it either!" Danny became more and more innocent.
"Don't talk about this nonsense. Let's get to the point." Dark Star slammed the table impatiently and glanced at the four people opposite him, saying, "The Faceless may not be loyal to the Sea King, but they must serve the interests of the whole of Braavos.
The assassination of Her Majesty the Queen definitely has nothing to do with the doctrine of the God of Thousand Faces.
If there is no money and some ulterior political purpose, I won't believe it even if you beat me to death.
We only have two requests. First, don't send the Faceless to assassinate Her Majesty the Queen and her subordinates. Second, Braavos maintains a neutral political position and doesn't interfere in the affairs of Slave Bay and the allies.
In return … "
"Sir Gero, is this your personal opinion, or are you relaying the Dragon Queen's conditions?"
The Sea King angrily interrupted Dark Star and emphasized in a firm tone, "I also want to tell you two things. First, Braavos supports religious freedom.
We don't interfere in the operations of the Black and White House. The assassination of the Queen has nothing to do with me or Braavos.
Second, no outsiders are allowed to interfere in the internal and external affairs of Braavos. "
He looked straight into Danny's purple eyes and said word by word, "At the peak, Valleglia had more than five hundred Dragon King, but the Dragon King never controlled our policies."
