Lord, he is not a man [infrastructure]

"Yes." Jia Dou cheered up. He had long thought that the cook was not pleasing to the eye. His mother wanted to help in the kitchen, but was blocked several times by the cook and her mother, for fear that his mother would go to the kitchen to snatch their food. that power.

The cook trembled in fright, her legs went limp, she fell to her knees, kowtowed to Tang Bo, and she didn't dare to refute - those who refuted in the past would only be punished more severely, so she could only cry and beg: "Master , I was wrong, please, please forgive me, I will never dare again."

【Congratulations!The cook, Alu, has a deep resentment towards you. The character value of the transformed person is -1, and the total character value of the transformed person is +0.1, -156.9. 】

【warn!The kitchen helper Ahshu has a great affection for you, and the character value of the transformed person is +0.1.Total character value, +0.2, -156.9. 】

Tang Bo was wondering who Ah Shu was, and why he had such a crush on him for no apparent reason.

All the kitchen helpers knelt down, and no one dared to intercede. Everyone was afraid of getting burned, and even more afraid that they would also be one of the servants who were punished.

The servants were terrified, but no one was shocked.

In fact, it is a miracle that no one has been punished since the young master recovered from his illness.The cook was whipped, and the young master gave three reasons, and he was only whipped ten times. The young master is kind enough, okay?

The butler lowered his eyes, and his guess about the young master in his heart was biased again: this should be the young master himself.Those cooking methods may just be heard from his lover, there are always some special cooking methods in noble families.

No one asked Tang Bo to give evidence. If the young master said that the cook was guilty, he was guilty.

What's more, Tang Bo did not wrong the cook.

A mere kitchen thief is not enough to reach the level of intelligent crime. It is easy to find this person.

First of all, a thief who can be brought up by Goudan must be a habitual thief. He only steals food once or twice, and Goudan doesn't even need to bring it up.

But would a master chef allow and be unable to detect a habitual kitchen thief?Especially when there are people in the kitchen all the time?

Then there is no need to do any reasoning, the thief is easy to guess, only the chef himself can often take things without worrying about being discovered, and others dare not report her if they find out.

Tang Bo was very good at observing people's micro-expressions. When the cook saw him, she subconsciously stroked her skirt and pressed it down.This can be understood as her nervousness, but it can also be understood as her guilty conscience.Tang Bo didn't need to look at the cook's skirt to guess that there was probably a large pocket sewn inside the skirt.

Afterwards, he asked the cook to take out the eggs. The cook became even more nervous, and poked the eggs in the basket with her hands, as if she was trying to cover up something.

Finally, when he confirmed with Goudan that the thief was the cook, Goudan gave instructions to complete the task after confirming that he would not change his name.

The cook herself did not deny her crime, and she was stunned.If she denies it, Tang Bo doesn't mind finding some evidence to prove it.Now she doesn't deny it, and it's easy for him.

Well, Tang Bo admitted that he would punish the cook, not entirely because Goudan released the task, but because he wanted to make an example of others, and at the same time he hated the cook's attitude towards the helpers, the cook beat the little girl continuously It's not the strength of a caress when touching your head.

Jia Dou came over with the execution whip, and two servants followed, helping to grab the cook's arm.

The cook kept crying.

"Cry and clap your mouth again." Tang Bo said lightly.

The cook squeezed her lips tightly, her tears kept streaming, but she didn't dare to cry any more.

【Congratulations!The cook Alu has a deeper resentment towards you, the character value of the transformed person is -1, and the total character value of the transformed person is +0.2, -157.9. 】

"Catch it!" Jia Dou grabbed the whip and waved it.

The cook whimpered, and the two footmen clutched her arms.

Jia Dou raised his whip high.

"She needs to make dinner." Tang Bo got up.

Jia Dou immediately understood that the young master just wanted to punish the cook a little, and didn't want to break her.pity!

The cook's face suddenly burst into brilliance. She didn't have to die or be disabled. The most important thing was that she could still keep her job as a cook.Thank you, Master, for your kindness!

【warn!The cook, Alu, is sincerely grateful to the person being transformed, and the character value of the person being transformed is +0.1.Total character value, +0.3, -157.9. 】

Tang Bo didn't intend to watch the execution process, he was not a pervert.

When he passed by the cook, he paused slightly: "This time it's just a small punishment. You were supposed to be hanged to the square outside and beaten to death, so that everyone can see the fate of being a house thief. But you found a spice and gave it to you." You get one credit. The merits and demerits are equalized. You can continue to work and only receive ten lashes. But there will be no next time. Or you can think about what kind of credit you can make to compensate for the next punishment. "

The cook cried and kept saying that she was wrong and would never dare again, and she couldn't help but thank Tang Bo for his kindness.

【warn!The cook A Lu once again sincerely thanked the person being transformed, and the character value of the person being transformed was +0.1.Total character value, +0.4, -157.9. 】

Tang Bo: If you are grateful, you can stay.If you just resent him blindly, then you can't stay.But the kitchen is a very important place. He doesn't want to eat food with special seasonings, so the cook has to replace it quickly. Before that, he should eat the delicacies he conjured up.

After Tang Bo left the restaurant, accompanied by the wailing of the cook being whipped, the butler said with a straight face: "The young master is different from the master. The young master can't rub the sand in his eyes, and there are clear rewards and punishments. From now on, tighten the leather for me." !"

All the servants present bowed their heads and listened to the instruction.

The butler taught all the servants a lesson before going to the small hall to look for Tang Bo.

"The cook, Alu, grew up in the mansion. Although her hands and feet are a little dirty, but the cooks of all generations have always been like this. She still gets very little. Instead of changing to someone who doesn't know the basics, it's better to continue to use her. If the young master If there is a suitable candidate, you can put the cook next to the cook to learn, and when you master the cooking skills, you can arrange this cook elsewhere."

Tang Bo, who was checking the mission rewards, gathered his palms together. It wasn't that he was careless, he really felt that the question about the butler was testing him.

"There are not enough manpower in the territory now, so she will let her work and pay back whatever she takes. I will pay attention to the new cook."

"Yes."

"After getting the seal, do I have to go to Luma City to get the lordship?" Tang Bo changed the subject.

The steward replied respectfully: "Not necessarily, if you can't go there and just send a letter, Luma City will send someone to check the situation, and if it is confirmed that your succession to the lord is reasonable and legal, the new appointment approved by the Grand Duke will be handed over to you. .”

Tang Bo heard the meaning: "Does this mean that it is easier for me to go to Luma City?"

The butler bowed his head.

Tang Bo crossed his hands on his knees and thought for a while: "I'm going to Luma City."

I just went to Luma City to see if there are any suitable local crop seeds and useful tools, etc. He still has 52 gold coins on him, leaving some for his family, so he should be able to buy a lot of things.

The debt owed by his lord father?

Just owe it.I have never heard that the person who owes money is the uncle.

On the same day, the steward personally went to Sanshu City, found the lord's seal that Tang Ze had hidden in the house he bought, and brought it back.

Tang Ze's illegitimate son and mistress also live here, they don't have any face in front of the housekeeper, they dare not show their face in front of the housekeeper at all.

Tang Bo put some change of clothes and the most important money in his portable space, and was about to go to Luma City, who would have thought that something big would happen suddenly to Bailuling.

With the lord Tang Ze unable to come forward for the time being, Tang Bo could only stay and settle the matter, and asked the housekeeper to go to Luma City with the stamped letter instead.

This matter has to start from those two deep pits.

Ever since the people of Xiaohe Village spread the news about the Devil's Well, the leaders of Bailuling felt a little uneasy.

But Aqiu was ill.

Aqiu was the first shy boy who discovered the Devil's Well. When he came back from the address of the Devil's Well, he felt uncomfortable at night and developed a high fever late at night. It was so burned that the personnel and affairs were unknown.

Aqiu's father ran wildly to find the pharmacist.

The pharmacist came, crushed the herbs, rubbed them on Aqiu's forehead, and put some in his mouth.

Finally, the pharmacist drew a circle around Aqiu with wooden branches, and inserted three branches at three points to ignite it, which is to exorcise the devil.

White Deer Collar... including the entire Shuangyuexing people, from ancient times to the present, they believe that inexplicable illnesses are caused by evil spirits.This also led to the fact that pharmacists who treat people must not only understand herbal medicine, but also be able to exorcise demons.

Tang Bo didn't do this when he was sick because he was only poisoned, and the pharmacist didn't dare to tell the lord's son casually that he was invaded by evil spirits - in order to hide this, the nobles would kill anyone who knew it.

After treatment, Ah Qiu's condition did not improve. His fever subsided and rose again. After a day and a night, people looked like he was dying.

Pharmacist's attitude towards a group of ordinary civilians was completely different from that of Tang Bo. He told Aqiu's family proudly and mysteriously that it was very difficult to rescue him because Aqiu had been infiltrated by evil spirits.

The Aqiu family was in despair.

Then Aqiu's grandfather also fell down. This 48-year-old "old man" with a stooped body and gray hair started to have a fever just like his grandson.

The Aqiu family was terrified.

The pharmacist was even more convinced that Ah Qiu brought the evil spirit home, and declared that the evil spirit had already started to murder strangers.

The pharmacist turned around and ran away, refusing to stay at Aqiu's house any longer.

Everyone in Xiaohe Village knew about Aqiu's illness and the fact that Aqiu's family invited a pharmacist. When they knew that the pharmacist had escaped from Aqiu's house and that Grandpa Aqiu also fell ill, the villagers who had also been to the Devil's Well that day were terrified.

At that time, there were six villagers who went to Devil's Well. One of them, a young man named Erzi, was attacked by a lone wolf when he was going to fetch water from a small river. The wolf's paws were torn in a mess.

The second son did not die on the spot, but the weather was hot, and his wound was not healed with good medicine, and it began to rot and pus.Of course, the second son also started to have a fever and fell into a coma.

From the perspective of the villagers, the symptoms of the three people are exactly the same.

Among the six people, Shitou was so frightened that he was questioned a few more times by his family members, and when he became angry, he beat his wife and children violently.

The reason why the smelly stone is called this is because his temper is smelly and hard, and he is physically strong.He is one of the strong laborers selected by the village to dig the devil's well in the future, which made him reluctant and worried. After the rumor spread in the village that everyone who had gone to the devil's well would be killed by evil spirits, his Nerves collapsed to the extreme, and he exploded after being nagged by his wife.

The screams of the stinking stone woman and her child attracted the neighbors, and Tian Bao and Daying, who were the most prestigious in the village, brought people to hold the stinky stone together, and the stinky stone woman was saved from being beaten to death.

But the mother-in-law of the stinky stone was beaten to the head, and she fell into a coma.

In just two days, tragedies occurred in Xiaohe Village one after another, and the rumors that the devil crawled out of the devil's well suddenly became rampant.

In addition to Xiaohe Village, other villages also had sick patients one after another. This was a very common thing in the past. How could it be possible for people to eat whole grains without getting sick?People in Bailu collar can live to be in their forties on average.

But at this time, along with the spread of rumors, all the sick people thought that they were also invaded by evil spirits, and all those who encountered trouble also believed that it was the cause of evil spirits.

Grandpa Aqiu died four days after falling ill.

Ah Qiu came back to life, but his brain was burnt out. The shy boy turned into a drool-only idiot.

The second son was also seriously injured and infected, and it seemed that he had only one breath left.

The mother-in-law of the stinky stone also failed to wake up from the coma, and gradually couldn't even drink the water she was fed.

People in other villages died one after another.

But in just four or five days, fear spread throughout the White Deer collar.

Tang Bo knew that the accident in the territory was not because the citizens came to him, but Goudan took the initiative to issue a task to him, saying that there was an evil invasion in the White Deer Territory, and Tang Bo had to solve it as soon as possible, otherwise it would cause something he didn't want to see dire consequences.

When Tang Bo intervened in this matter, fifteen villages including Xiaohe Village had already set off a vigorous operation to find the devil.

Yes, the White Deer Leader believes that the devil has crawled out of the devil's well and replaced a certain villager, so he hides among the villagers, waiting for an opportunity to kill more people.

And the way people in this world deal with demon possession has been one since ancient times, that is to find out, beat them severely and then burn them to death
