Lord of Rot

Carrot and his sister shared the brown bread and hid the remaining one. It was impossible for them to really have food to eat every day. Even if what the lord said was true, those in charge might not obey orders.

They were just as reluctant to finish the radish, and there were many others who hid the bread. Everyone cherished these foods.

At night, they huddled together and fell asleep.

It was a quiet night except for the frequent ravens flying over.

My stomach was full and I slept very comfortably.

Early in the morning, at dawn, the slaves were ordered to get up.

It was the lame slave in charge, and Carrot heard others call that man a "mad dog," a mad dog that bit people indiscriminately.

The crowd gathered together, and the lame mad dog was supported by his son.

"Yesterday, some slaves ignored the Lord's order!" Lame shouted loudly: "Everyone has black bread, and some people even go to steal other people's black bread!"

The slaves were quiet, this happened all the time.

The stewards usually don't care, and no one will seek justice for the slaves, but it seems to be different today?

Carrot quietly touched the black bread in his arms. Fortunately, theirs were still there and the bad guys didn't focus on him.

"Bring the people!"

The man who snatched the brown bread knew each other well. He had no name, but he was blind in one eye, so he was called "Blind Eye".

Blind Eye was pushed to the ground by several slaves. He was covered in wounds. It seemed that he had received a lot of whipping before he was pulled over.

"That's him." Lame's eyes swept across the numb faces. When Carrot caught his gaze, he was immediately frightened, as if the other person would kill him.

Just listen to the other party shouting: "What the master gives you is yours. What is not given to you is not allowed to be snatched!"

Lame said: "Chop off his hands!"

They didn't have knives, but they had stones. A slave walked aside and picked up a big stone and walked slowly over.

"I was wrong, I was wrong! I never dare again, I was wrong!" Blind Eye shouted loudly, but his hand was held down and could not be taken back.

Luobo subconsciously covered his sister's eyes, knowing that the next step would be very bloody.

"The lord is here!"

"The master is here!"

The sound of horse hooves came from afar.

The slaves holding the stone and the lame ones immediately knelt down. When the other slaves saw this, they also knelt down one after another. Luobo also pulled his sister to kneel on the ground. He took a bold look and saw that it was the noble master who bought them. He once Take a peek quietly.

Just a glance!

If you look at it one more time, you will be beaten.

"Ak, what are you doing?" The lord did not dismount.

The lame mad dog knelt on the ground: "There is a slave who robbed someone else's bread yesterday. I want to chop off one of his hands."

"It's too extreme," the Lord Lord said, "Just a small punishment is enough. If you do it again next time, you will be punished severely."

"Thank you, Master!!" Blind Eye kowtowed vigorously on the ground.

"Yes." The lame mad dog didn't dare to question at all.

"I have something to do with you," the lord said.

The mad dog followed the lord and left, and the slaves were relieved. Although the lame man in charge of the slaves was a mad dog, at least the lord was kind-hearted.

As long as they are careful not to make mistakes, the mad dog will not dare to do anything to them, otherwise they will have to bear the wrath of the lord.

Li Qi dismounted and looked at Ake who was being helped up.

"Owner"

"I went to Iron Stone City this time and saw a knight." Li Qi went straight to the point. He didn't need to mince words about his slave: "He met a group of people back then. A woman was tied to a wooden frame and her stomach was cut open. There are bugs inside, endless bugs, do you know what’s going on?”

Ake nodded: "You should be talking about the Wild Insect Tribe."

"Wild Insect Tribe?"

"In the Giant's Foot, that is, in the south of the Lurea continent," Ake said, "We are the remnants of the Wild Insect Tribe. What you are talking about should be some kind of demonic spell from the Wild Insect Tribe."

"Can you?" Li Qi asked.

Ake shook his head: "I and my three children can control bugs, but we can only control bugs within a few steps."

If Li Qi wants to know whether what Ake said is true or false, the best way is to kill him or his son, and then control his body, maybe he can get a memory.

"Maybe your abilities can bring changes to the porcupine tie." Li Qi didn't do that. He was just curious about that memory, and if Ake really had that power, why would he become a slave? He said: "Go back and continue working. Maybe your sons and daughters will be free from slavery in the future."

"Yes!" Ake was pleasantly surprised. For the sake of his children, he could continue to be a mad dog. Although he was lame, he was the one with the most ferocious, cruel and terrifying bites!

"Glen comes to see you for something." After the baron finished speaking, he rode away.

After returning, Aker continued his work and received orders from Gulen.

"Men and women separate," Acker ordered: "Children stand over here! Women and old people stand over here!"

Although Carrot was a boy, he was of average height and was placed in the men's team, while his sister entered the children's team.

"Sister!" He wanted to be with his sister, but he was afraid that her sister would be bullied. The whip snapped and he quickly retracted his hand. He could only warn her: "Be obedient!"

Yes, be obedient.

If you obey, you will get black bread. If you obey, you will not be beaten. In the porcupine land, you must obey. This is the way of survival discovered by Carrot. Otherwise, like the powerful blind eye, if you don't obey, you will only be whipped.

Different teams separated, and Carrot followed the team to chop down trees. They held saws and axes and worked hard in the woods.

Trees were knocked down.

They were asked to lift the wood to a designated location and work under the command of a black-eared person, who should be a carpenter? Or a mason? He's really bad at building houses.

Carrot can only think about these words in his heart, but dare not say them out.

At noon, when I was hungry, black bread and hot soup were delivered.

Carrot looked at his bowl, and there was a small piece of shredded pork in it.

He ate the meat quickly, it tasted so good!

Licking the bowl, he kept thinking about it. As for the brown bread, he ate the piece of black bread last night and planned to leave the remaining piece to his sister.

At night, when he returned to the resting place exhausted, Luobo saw his sister.

"I brought you something to eat," he walked over and whispered.

"I'm full." My sister touched her belly and said, "I'm very full."

"We were cutting wood during the day, what did you do?" Luo Bao couldn't figure out what a group of children could do.

"picking up feces"

My sister said: "Each person has a basket to pick up the feces in the territory, and also goes to the beach to collect shells and catch sea spiders!"

Why doesn't it sound like you're working, but like you're playing?

Regardless of that, it’s good to be full.

What a wonderful day like this. Luobo hugged his sister to sleep.

A raven flew overhead.

"It's that one again." Carrot recognized the raven. It came often and would fly away after staying for a while.

The raven flaps its wings and flies away.

In the study room of the castle, Li Qi opened his eyes.

"It's good as long as no one makes trouble."

Yes, all he asked for was that no one make trouble. The Porcupine Territory has a population of about 200 and nearly 100 slaves. He doesn’t even have soldiers in his hands. If the slaves really want to hang themselves as their lord, they can rely on the security team. Not enough to watch at all.

Men build houses, women dig sand and pave roads, and children collect dung and drive from the sea.

Everyone has a job, which is very necessary at present to solve the surplus labor force caused by the lack of technical talents and the inability to develop formally.

There is work and food to eat, people don't make trouble, and the porcupine collar can have a pretty good road.

There are no masons or carpenters in Porcupine Collar, and Black Ear, a blacksmith apprentice who knows little about everything, appears again. Regardless of beauty or ugliness, he should be able to build a house for slaves.

He picked up the pen and continued to write and draw on the table.
