Chapter 448 Riot
Sansa Stark was awakened by a commotion.
She sat up from the bed in a daze, and saw that her younger sister Arya had already run behind the door, and was carefully opening a small slit to look out.
"what happened?"
"I don't know." Arya said, "It's too dark, I can't see anything clearly..."
Sansa climbed out of the bed, walked lightly behind her sister, and looked out through the crack of the door.
The night was deep, and the courtyard was pitch black. Indeed, nothing could be seen, except for the sound of hurried footsteps outside the courtyard, as well as crying and scolding.
Sansa felt uneasy, and was about to speak when she saw the courtyard gate was slammed open, and then a group of soldiers in golden robes rushed in holding torches.
A strong fear gripped Sansa's throat, making it hard for her to breathe.
Arya was also startled, but she reacted quickly, and immediately closed the door tightly, then grabbed her sister who was standing there like a puppet, and ran into the room.
Sansa came back to her senses, with infinite fear in her voice:
"Are they here to get us?"
"I don't know." Arya got under the bed like a swift mouse, and lifted a wooden cover, revealing the dark hole below, "Quick! Don't stand there stupidly, hide!"
Sansa shivered and got under the bed, and hid in the basement with her sister.
In order not to attract attention by emitting light, the two did not dare to light the candles in the basement, and could only embrace each other in the dark, praying silently.
The waiting time seemed extremely long.
It seems that a century has passed, and the two sisters who were frightened did not wait for the soldiers who came to search.
Instead, she heard Mrs. Shataya's cries faintly from above.
The two listened for a while, and then realized that the group of gold-robed guards were not here to arrest the two of them, but to search for food.
"Damn it! We can't let them take away our food!" Arya was furious and wanted to crawl out.
"Don't go! You want to kill us!" Sansa hugged her sister tightly and refused to let her go out.
"Let go! You idiot! All the food shops outside are closed. If the food is also taken away, we will starve to death!" Please visit fr𝐞𝐞w𝒏.𝒸𝑜𝔪 website to read fastest update
"That's better than being discovered by Lannister!"
The two sisters stalemate for a while, until the movement outside gradually subsided, Sansa let go.
Arya immediately crawled out.
At this time, the gold-cloaked guards had already left. In the yard, Shataya's mother and daughter hugged each other and wept.
"Did they take all the food?" Arya asked.
"Yes, all of them were taken away. It is said that the food in King's Landing will be distributed uniformly. From now on, we can only go to the porridge shop to get a bowl of porridge every day."
Therefore, a series of long live Caesar resounded through the Red Castle, which sounded extremely shocking.
However, this also touched Lannister's most sensitive nerve.
The guarded troops around got the order, began to show their weapons, and rushed towards the rioting crowd.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Arya immediately dragged Sansa to run outside.
Fortunately, the two stayed at the outermost edge and ran fast, so they were not stopped by soldiers.
Behind him came the sound of dense arrows piercing the air, followed by screams and fighting.
Sansa was so frightened that she trembled all over, she didn't dare to look back.
The shrill horn sounded throughout the city, and the streets were full of panicked and angry people.
For a while, it seemed that the whole King's Landing was boiling.
"Let's go home!" Sansa said hurriedly.
After running for a while, my sister suddenly stopped again. She was about to urge, but she heard Arya pointing ahead and saying:
"I remember it was a granary."
"Don't go!" Sansa held her younger sister's arm tightly.
Arya didn't struggle, because she wasn't stupid after all. At this time, the outside of the granary was crowded with hungry and angry people, desperately rushing in, trying to grab food.
But at the same time, the army is also gathering here, and a **** massacre is about to begin.
Rushing in at this time, even if you can grab food, you may not be able to leave safely.
"Let me go." Sansa only wanted to go back.
Arya was not too reconciled: "Look again."
While speaking, the turbulent crowd in front has been stained with blood, and the crazy people have rushed into the granary, and the army no longer restrains, and begins to kill.
The crowd was easily torn through countless gaps, and the unarmed people had no ability to resist in front of the heavily armed soldiers, and were swept away like dead leaves in a storm.
Blood and screams filled the air, making people chill.
Arya was also frightened, and finally stopped being stubborn, obeyed her sister and started to stay away.
And at this moment, they saw a man carrying a grain bag rushing out of the encirclement, his face full of excitement.
But the next moment, this brilliance froze.
A sharp arrow pierced his neck.
Soldiers arrived later and hacked him to death a few more times.
However, when they were about to carry the food back, they found that the bag had a hole in the fight, and what flowed out of it was not the expected food.
Rather, sand.
