Lord of Rot

Leaving the livestock village and walking on the spacious, straight and smooth road, Kuai Ren and other soldiers had turned from surprise into a habit.

But the thought of the lord being ignored became more and more serious in his mind.

Perhaps it was the in-laws of the Porcupine family, and those crocodiles were coming. Liard was worried about the ferocious crocodiles and resolutely refused Greenwood Castle's help. If it were the young Baron Li Qi, he would probably have to give everything up.

Quick Blade took off his helmet and scratched his white-haired head in annoyance. He liked drinking and killing enemies, but had no interest in machinations.

But even the crocodile family has the courage to build a remote porcupine collar so beautifully?

After walking for a while we arrived at Maitian Village.

Maitian Village was still the same as before they left, a mess of broken houses, mud, and drafty houses.

But what about the mud puddle?

Why is the road so smooth?

The most important thing is that the huge manure pit, the pit that the porcupine collar has accumulated for countless years, a person may drown if he falls into it, but it is gone!

Also, what are those water channels with water in them, so that villagers can directly use the water in them to irrigate their fields?

I can't see the farmer watering the fields.

There were just a few farmers sitting under the shade of the trees, laughing and chatting.

"What is this?" Quick Blade asked.

"Water Channel" Luo Bao introduced with some pride. He was sure that the lord's invention shocked these soldiers. Although the soldiers were old people from the Porcupine Collar, their knowledge of the Porcupine Collar still existed in the past. Looking at the shock on their faces, Luo Bao The pride in my heart almost overflowed.

"Drain?" Kuai Ren didn't pay attention to the young man's expression.

"That's right, water is sent to the canal through the water truck, and the canal connects the entire Maitian Village, so that everyone does not need to go to the river to carry water to water the fields."

"What's a waterwheel?" Quick Blade asked.

Carrot explained: "It is a magical thing invented by the lord, like a wheel, half inserted in the water."

He gestured twice, not sure whether Kuai Ren and the other veterans could understand, and then said: "The water truck can capture the water from the river and send it to the canal."

A car catching water? What magic!

Kuai Ren and others were confused.

"There is also a water mill, which is also a water wheel." Luo Bo introduced: "Grain can be processed in the water mill. No one is required to work. As long as the grain is poured in, fine flour can be ground."

Sure enough, that water wheel is magic!

No matter what they thought in their hearts, they still set foot on the stone road in the Porcupine Territory. It was the same as when they left, without any changes.

At the castle gate they saw a smiling Clarence.

The young and handsome lord looked at them, and behind him there were a row of male servants and a row of maids, all wearing uniform clothes.

It’s different from what I imagined!

When Kuai Blade and other soldiers entered the castle, Li Qi took a step forward and said with a smile: "Welcome home!"

"Uncle Kuai Jian" Li Qi walked towards the dazed Kuai Yan and held his hand cordially: "Welcome everyone back. I have prepared the room for you. Let's rest first and then have a banquet!"

"Simon!"

"Yes!" The housekeeper nodded: "Flippers, please take all the adults to change clothes and rest."

The footmen nodded.

"This..." Kuai Ren didn't want to agree. They were still wearing armor. If there was any problem, they could kill directly. But if they took off their armor and removed their weapons, they would become a piece of meat to be slaughtered.

"Sir," Kuai Ren put his right hand on his chest, and then said quickly in a low voice: "We belong to the porcupine collar and will only be loyal to you!"

"I know!"

Li Qi nodded: "So go and rest quickly, this is an order!"

"Yes!"

The soldiers left. Li Qi was a little surprised. The porcupine collar had a new look. Kuai Ren and others should be happy. Why did they look like they had lost the battle.

"Carrot! What did you talk about on the way back?" Li Qi asked.

"Yes." Luobo took a step forward and recounted what happened on the road just now.

Although Luo Bao knows nothing about the development and technology of porcupine collars, he can still give a general idea.

"Since it's not a problem with the porcupine collar, it's because too many of our companions died when we returned from this trip." When we left, there were eighty people, and when we came back, we were around forty. It's normal to be moved by the scene and feel bad.

Kill pigs, slaughter chickens, and cook ducks.

Four large tables were set up with beer, snacks, fruits, etc.

These large tables are made up of small tables and can accommodate forty people eating together.

After changing their clothes and preparing to go to the execution ground, Kuai Ren and others came to the castle courtyard and stared at the four large tables and the delicious food on them, their eyes widening.

It smells good.

Started purring alone!

This one looks delicious, that one looks delicious too!

"Everyone, take your seats!" Li Qi said with a smile.

As a lord, maybe he shouldn't eat at the same table with the soldiers and maintain his due dignity, but Li Qi is more willing to take the cordial route, especially when he can't hire a single talent at all. These veterans who have returned from the battlefield are wealth.

What's more, they are loyal, they are the people left behind by their father Lild.

With the guidance of Mr. Li Qi, the chef, Mr. Jiugong, led the apprentices to make delicacies, such as barbecue, steamed meat, stewed meat, steamed crab, oysters...

Salads, cakes, snacks, and delicacies that you can't get anywhere else if you have money are placed on the table.

In the past, people had to drink beer with meat because it was too greasy to eat, so they had to drink beer to scrape the oil from their mouths.

But the delicacies of Porcupine Collar are different.

Delicious, all kinds of complex flavors, sweet and sour, salty and sweet, fresh and sweet, spicy.

The soldiers were busy devouring it.

This is definitely a delicacy that only lords can eat!

Li Qi raised his wine glass and clinked it with Kuai Ren and others.

Listen to them talk about the battlefield.

At that time, Leard sent them to the battlefield. There was a conflict between a lord at Giant's Foot and Dongxia, so they went there to participate in the battle. In the end, Giant's Foot defended the castle, and they also received orders to go home.

The war did not last long, but the journey from the East Gorge to Giant's Foot was a journey of thousands of miles. This was the reason why it took so much time.

Some people died in the war, some were seriously injured or disabled, and Kuai Ren took it upon himself to let them find a place to stay and live with money.

There were also bandits harassing the tired army and wild beasts attacking them, so only 39 people were left after returning.

"Betty?" Li Qi suddenly thought of the female mercenary trapped in the cave on the headland. Could it be that the war took place in her castle? But something is wrong, the time doesn't match up, unless Betty ran away as soon as the war started.

Did the female mercenary who seemed resigned to her fate tell the truth?

"The adults of Wisdom, aren't you here?" Kuai Ren felt that his words had been convoluted enough.

Li Qi was confused: "What Wisdom? There is only one master in the Porcupine Collar, Mr. Li Qi Clarence!"

He knocked on the wine glass: "Kuai Blade, I can't pretend I didn't hear what you said, drink!"

"Yes!" Kuai Ren didn't know whether he had drunk too much or was excited and stood up with a red face: "Here's to Lord Li Qi!"

"Here's to Lord Li Qi!" the soldiers stood up and shouted while raising their wine glasses.

The banquet lasted for a long time, and the male servants were busy pouring wine for the soldiers.

It wasn't that Li Qi didn't distrust these soldiers, but in order to avoid unpleasantness, he didn't let the maids serve the table. He only asked them to wait in the kitchen and clean up later.

The reunion between the lord and the loyal veteran should not be interrupted by the incident of touching the maid's butt.

The veterans fell one by one. They drank a lot and ate a lot.

The banquet finally came to an end. Li Qi shook his head. His body was heavy, but his consciousness was clear.

Even when he tried to transfer most of his energy to other dead bodies, he didn't feel drunk at all.

He had something to do tonight, and he could break it into 23 portions, every night.
