The journey of the film and television world is endless [continued]

At this time, the open space between the castle and Heron Town was densely packed with tents. These were the contestants who came to participate in the martial arts competition and their followers. The Hean family separated them into separate areas for camping. There were also many farmers and vendors selling goods around these camps, which seemed very lively.

Liu Yuan even saw some short dwarfs performing in colorful costumes. There was also a bald strong man performing fire breathing. However, with so many people mixed together, the sanitary conditions were also imaginable. Garbage and excrement were everywhere on the muddy land in the early spring. I don't know how these people camped in such an environment?

Of course, they were all contestants with no background, most of whom were hired knights. There were also some traveling caravans, most of whom were temporary organizations, and it was also complicated for these people to come. They even organized some prostitutes from other towns to do business, and of course there were ordinary peasant women and girls who came to play a cameo for money.

As an ancient earl family, the Celtigar family naturally did not need to camp like those outside. Earl He An had already sent people to greet them outside the city, and the guards led the convoy to Harrenhal. When they got closer, Liu Yuan realized that Harrenhal was really huge. It was incredible that the wall was more than 20 meters thick, and there were rooms for hiding soldiers inside the wall, with shooting holes in it for soldiers to attack enemies outside the city.

The castle also covers a large area, more than ten times the size of the Crab Shell Castle in Celtigar. Even Liu Yuan could feel the envy in Earl Adrian's eyes. The characteristic of the buildings in the castle is that they are large. All the rooms are about five people high, which is enough even for giants to live in. Earl Adrian and his family were invited to meet Earl He An, and their followers were arranged by the castle steward to settle down in other places.

Liu Yuan and his companions were placed in a tall tower. According to the guards who took over, this place was called the "Wailing Tower". Whenever the cold wind blew through the cracks in the stone that had cracked due to the high temperature, it would make a sound like crying, which is why the tower got its name. At the bottom of the tower were some huge basements, and the bottom floor was now used as a storage room and granary. Now some soldiers from the Hean family lived there. Liu Yuan and his companions were arranged on the two floors above. It was said that no one had lived on the higher floors for more than 80 years. Bandil's knights and attendants occupied the best rooms, followed by the guards and these craftsmen. As for the lord's family and the two barons, they were nobles and lived in the widow's tower next to the main building.

Not all the followers lived here. For example, the kitchen staff were housed in a circular stone building with a hemispherical roof. The entire building was Harrenhal's kitchen, which was twice as large as the hall of Crabshell Castle. Liu Yuan followed them to have a look when he had nothing to do. He walked around a 20-acre Godwood forest. The stables of the castle could accommodate thousands of horses at the same time. The grooms, veterinarians, and farriers lived there. At this time, Liu Yuan discovered that they were not the first to arrive. They were a group of rough-looking men. What really caught his attention was the gray wolf head emblem on their chests. It was very familiar to the Stark family in the North. The accent they spoke was obviously different from that of Crab Island. It was almost the dialect of Westeros, but Liu Yuan could still understand it. From their conversation, he learned that they came with Master Brandon Stark and Miss Lyanna Stark. As for these two people, Liu Yuan had no impression.

However, the Harrenhal part has been decayed, and none of the five towers are intact. In particular, the tops of the towers are twisted and cracked, and a large number of bats live on the tops of the towers. They were melted by the dragon fire of Targaryen more than two hundred years ago, and the original name of the towers has been unknown with the death of Harren the Black. The Harren family only uses the lower two-thirds of the five towers, and the rest has gradually become ruins. Many places in the castle have not been visited for decades.

In order to welcome the lords and nobles from all over the world, the castle began to be decorated. Many servants were cleaning the ruins and clearing the rubble from the towers. They used large curtains to cover the cracks in the buildings. There was a busy scene everywhere. Liu Yuan wandered around the castle. Because he was still young, no one took him seriously.

As a blacksmith apprentice, Liu Yuan went to the barracks hall with Old Parker, which was originally the dining place for the castle soldiers. The armory located below the barracks hall was where the forges were located. The place was very large, with more than a dozen forges alone. Old Parker picked an empty seat and placed all his tools there with satisfaction. The blacksmiths' tools all had their own marks, so they didn't have to worry about taking the wrong ones. This was the advantage of coming early, you could choose your own seat.

The Celtigar family arrived eight days in advance. Lord Hean's brother, Sir Oswell Hean, invited Adrian to borrow his servants to help in the castle. He was one of the king's Kingsguard and had a great reputation in the Seven Kingdoms. Lord Adrian was so smart! If the Kingsguard had come, how could the King be far behind? This was an opportunity to show his sincerity, so he simply added his own soldiers to the castle guard.

Liu Yuan had nothing to do these days, so he decided to go out for a walk. Considering the deadly smell in the camp outside the city, he decided to go fishing at the God's Eye Lake. He carried his weapon box, a wooden barrel and a fishing rod, and went to the middle gate of Harrenhal, which is also the north gate. Coincidentally, the guard on duty at the gate happened to be a soldier from the Celtigar family. He just said hello and went out. Liu Yuan's goal was the woods on the west side of Harrenhal.

Liu Yuan walked through the small forest and came to the shore of Shenyan Lake. The endless green lake and the gentle breeze blowing on his face made him feel relaxed and happy. From time to time, black swans flew by, and Liu Yuan saw that the swans were holding trout in their mouths. He reached out to scoop up the warm lake water and washed his hands, but they were soon dirty. He was a little embarrassed. He had been on the road these days and hadn't taken a shower for almost seven or eight days. He looked around and found a big tree. He put the weapon box, fishing gear and clothes in the tree canopy. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't see them from below.

Then Liu Yuan went into the water wearing a pair of shorts and holding a short-handled spear. As soon as he entered the water, he suddenly felt his body warm, refreshed and full of strength. He hadn't felt this feeling for a long time. Thinking carefully, this was the passive skill [Water Rhythm. Intermediate] he had acquired before. Thinking of this, he dived into the water to try it out. Yes, it was true that he had an affinity with the water element. He could breathe in the water, and in a water environment, he could continuously restore his physical strength and energy and reduce damage.

This is interesting. Could it be that the current body still inherits those previous passive skills?
