Lord, he is not a man [infrastructure]

When Tang Bo came out of the underground cave, Gu Ding had just returned to the city with those slave soldiers.

Inside the city, Tian Min, Bai Mu and the others were arresting people with five hundred puppets, most of them were victims of disasters, and some of them were residents of the original city.

Those arrested were all robbers who took advantage of the chaos.

"Wait a moment." Tang Bo saw the seriously injured slave soldiers and motioned for him some time.

"Bring over those who are caught and ready to be killed," Tang Bo ordered.

A Lang immediately took the order to lead people.

Tang Bo said to Gu Ding again: "Come here and help me a little bit, let's set up a medium-sized magic circle."

Gu Ding said curiously: "Hey, boss, you are so diligent, and you are willing to set up a magic circle with me?"

Tang Bo rubbed the child's head, and took out the formation resources collected by the master of Tumojiao from the space.

Gu Ding is an expert, his eyes widened when he saw what he took out, and he said enviously: "You killed the leader of the Demon Slayer Sect?"

"Yes, that is a holy master."

"Wow! That's a big harvest." Gu Ding rubbed his hands a little excitedly: "Did you find a new magic array map?"

"Yes, I will teach you later."

Gu Ding's face was full of smiles, but when Tang Bo started to set up the magic circle, the smile on his face turned into shock.

This is an unfamiliar magic formation diagram, but Tang Bo's arrangement is not like a novice at all, but like a veteran who has arranged it countless times, much more experienced than him.

"Help me handle the materials." Tang Bo threw a big bag to him.

In the end, Gu Ding said with no concealment of surprise: "When did you become so proficient in the magic circle diagram? You secretly practiced without telling me? Why haven't I seen this magic circle diagram?"

"This is the sacrificial healing magic array. I learned it from the holy master of the Demon Slayer Sect." Tang Bo drew the array extremely quickly, almost without thinking.

Gu Ding wanted to ask you why you could master this formation so quickly even if you learned it from the Saint Master, but he swallowed it back when the words came to his lips.Tang Bo has too many miraculous features, and many impossible things can become possible with him, such as the huge salt lake that suddenly appeared in the territory.

With ready-made materials and the help of Gu Ding, the sacrificial healing magic circle was quickly set up.

Tang Bo asked people to put the wounded patients who needed treatment, whether they were slave soldiers or disaster victims, the seriously injured ones into the outer circle of the magic circle first.

A Lang captures the prisoner who is about to be executed.

Tang Borang tied up all the captives and put them in the inner circle of the magic circle.He also ordered Gu Ding to assist him.

This medium-sized magic circle, which can heal up to twelve people at a time, takes up quite a large area, and the indoor space is not enough, so it is placed outdoors.

Naturally, the disaster victims and slave soldiers gathered together, but they didn't come close, they just stood outside and watched.

Seeing that the magic circle was set up, Tang Bo walked to the edge of the magic circle, stepped on a node, and motioned for everyone else to leave the range of the magic circle.

Gu Ding ordered, A Lang and others maintained order, and everyone was more than ten meters away from the magic circle.

Tang Bo chanted the spell, and the magic circle lit up with a strange purple light.

He activated the formation, but he didn't heal all these injured patients at once, he just awakened the consciousness of these seriously injured patients.

"Do you want to live? I can save you." Tang Bo said calmly to the twelve seriously injured patients lying on the magic circle.

The guarding successor regained consciousness, and after he understood his situation, he calmly asked Tang Bo a question: "What price do we have to pay?"

Tang Bo heard that Gu Ding mentioned this slave emphatically, saying that he has great prestige among the slaves, the most important thing is that he has the ability to command troops and command battles, his own strength and wisdom are not weak, and his mind is even more calm .

"It's very simple, I will charge whatever price you have to pay for the pharmacist to save your life."

Everyone was stunned.

Tang Bo raised the corners of his lips, and a not-so-kind smile appeared on his feminine face: "I will not save people for nothing, nor will I ask you to be my slaves for the rest of your life. You are all seriously injured. If I don't save you, you will They are all bound to die, I think you all admit this, right?"

All the injured were silent, obviously they all agreed with this.

Tang Bo: "To save wounded patients like you, I have to pay one hundred gold coins per person."

All the injured gasped, this was money they could never afford for the rest of their lives.

Tang Bo smiled: "I know that some of you have no money, I can give you two choices. You can either pay one hundred gold coins or supplies of equal value, or serve me as a soldier or craftsman for ten years and repay my life-saving Fee. Oh, I forgot to introduce myself, I am Tang Bo, the lord of the White Deer Lord."

Tang Bo originally wanted to talk about the various benefits of being loyal to him. For example, within the next ten years, loyalists will enjoy the same civil rights, obligations and benefits as the White Hart Leaders.Ten years later, loyalists can freely choose whether to stay in White Hart Collar or leave.When you leave, you can also take your property and family with you.Within ten years, if they are seriously injured, disabled or sacrificed, their family members will receive pensions in accordance with the Bailuling Martyrs' Family Pension Regulations and so on.

But he looked around at the faces of these slave soldiers and disaster victims, and suddenly felt that there was no need to say so much. They might not believe what they said now, so it would be better to wait for them to actually pledge their allegiance, and then let them actually experience their allegiance to him and the white deer leader. the benefits of.

Keeping the successor silent is not because Tang Bo said the terms are too bad, but because the terms of the transaction are excellent.

He thought that if they wanted to survive, they could only swear lifelong allegiance to this nobleman and become his slaves for life.But now the request made by the other party is only ten years.

Although ten years is not short, it is a hope after all.

Moreover, his family is a nobleman, so he can completely ask his father to pay a hundred gold coins for life-saving money.I just don't know if their home was also affected by the flood, and if there are still people alive now.

No matter what, agree first, save your life and then talk about other things.

The guarding successor was the first to agree to such a price for saving lives, but he didn't make a choice right away, whether to pay a hundred gold coins or serve for ten years.

The other slave soldiers saw that the young man agreed, and they all agreed blindly.

Tang Bo raised his hand and tapped his finger on the magic circle: "The contract is complete! Lie down and don't move around."

As an awakened god, the young man was the only one who felt something restrained him. It was only for a moment, and the feeling of restraint disappeared quickly, but the young man knew that this meant that the transaction contract was completed, and he had to pay one hundred gold coins after being revived. Or choose to be loyal to Tang Bo for ten years.

Tang Bo recited the complete spell.

In less than a moment, the twelve captives in the innermost circle of the magic circle suddenly sucked up their flesh and blood like some invisible thing, and they shrank in a few seconds, leaving no skin in the end.

The purple light spread from the inside to the outside, and people couldn't help but back away in fright. Even though the purple light didn't touch them, they were still terrified.

The screams kept ringing out, especially the captives who were brought over, struggling wildly one by one.

The onlookers and slave soldiers were also terrified, and some prisoners were so frightened that they peed out.

Tang Bo watched this scene indifferently.

This scene is so familiar, isn't it very similar to the special ability that Goudan rewarded him [harming others to benefit oneself]?

The name is different, but the essence is the same.

He also learned from the knowledge and memory of the holy master of the Demon Slayer Sect that some demons can directly convert the effect of the magic array into special effect magic, without arranging the magic array, as long as the magic power and soul power are used, the effect can be released Same magic.

This further shows that Goudan is probably related to the Mozu.

Tang Bo suppressed these thoughts and nodded to Gu Ding.

Gu Ding was standing in front of the guarding heir, and when he saw Tang Bo's gesture, he immediately pulled out the spear point that pierced his chest.

The young man let out a muffled snort, but the purple light immediately enveloped his wound, and the blood stopped just as soon as it spurted out a little.

There were also things on the wounds of several other wounded patients, and Gu Ding removed them all as quickly as possible.

"Look at those wounded... look!"

The purple light diffused around the outer circle of the magic circle, and the purple light enveloped the wounded. People thought that these wounded would die like those captives. Those who had a good relationship with these wounded would rush over to save them immediately, but Let Ah Lang lead someone to stop him.

"...they are not dead, they are not dead! They are alive!" Someone screamed, and the sound was shattered.

Those who wanted to come to save others also noticed the change. The seriously injured patients who were lying on the ground could sit up by themselves.

The twelve seriously injured people placed on the outer circle of the magic circle all recovered from their injuries.

The victims and slave soldiers were both fearful and grateful, while the captives were all limp on the ground, their eyes full of despair.

And no matter who it was, there were quite a few people in the White Deer Leader, and their lord Tang Bo's eyes were full of awe.It's just that people in Bailu look at Tang Bo with more respect than with fear, while others look at Tang Bo with more fear than respect.

This kind of ability is enviable and even more frightening.

Tang Bo obviously had a way to cover up this treatment method, and only let people see the scene of the miraculous recovery of the seriously injured patients, but he didn't, he grandly displayed the sacrificial healing magic circle.

Tang Bo waved his hand to prepare the second batch of sacrificial captives and wounded patients who needed treatment.

This is truly a joy on one side and a sorrow on the other.

Gu Ding suddenly said: "Do you think these captives are pitiful? Do you know who these captives are? They are slave leaders, slave merchants and thugs who capture civilians as slaves, and stewards who exploit and bully serfs. The captives have at least five lives in their hands. If you sympathize with them, who will sympathize with the people killed by them?"

Tang Bo didn't say anything. Since he dared to set up the magic circle outside, he wasn't afraid that people who saw it would criticize him for it.

Gu Ding doesn't want someone to misunderstand Tang Bo?

He said very seriously: "All of these people deserve to die. They were going to be executed, but just killing them is too cheap. It also wastes their dog lives. The lord uses their dog lives to save people, our people Don’t you think it’s wrong to save your loved ones and friends? We don’t have so many medicines, and we don’t have many pharmacists, but we have so many injuries. Do you want your loved ones to die like this?”

Some of the slave soldiers recognized the prisoners, and there was a look of sympathy on their faces.

The disaster victims were also aroused by Gu Ding to hate slave owners and slave catchers, especially some stewards.

They don't think these people are pitiful anymore, they just think that these people deserve to die.Young Lord Gu is right, rather than wasting the lives of these people, it is better to let them contribute at the end, otherwise killing them is useless.

"Of course not! The lord used these people well and killed them well!"

"Yes! Your lord is right!"

"May the gods bless the merciful lord!"

Tang Bo looked at Gu Ding, thinking that the child has grown up.Huh?Look carefully, it seems to be a little taller?

The revived guarding successor stroked his chest again to make sure that he really came back to life, not a dream or a fantasy.

The young man looked at the wounded group waiting for treatment, his three subordinates were also among the seriously injured, but there were too many seriously injured, these three were put on the next wave by Gu Ding.

The young man turned his thoughts twice, got up, walked in front of Tang Bo, knelt down on one knee, and said very simply: "This subordinate is willing to serve you for ten years. Please accept this subordinate's allegiance!"

Tang Bo: "Your name?"

"I am... the guardian successor." The young man said his name.

Tang Bo turned his head and asked Gu Ding: "This name seems familiar?"

As a member of the propaganda team, Gu Ding had a fairly good understanding of the nobles in the territories of Sita County, so he opened his mouth and said: "The lord of Baowanghe is called the guardian, and his successor is the successor of the guardian. But I heard that the heir of the territory Been missing for five or six years."

Tang Bo and Gu Ding looked at the young man together: "Are you the son of Lord Baowanghe?"

The young man nodded: "Yes."

"Why don't you choose to pay one hundred gold coins? This money is a lot for others, but it shouldn't be difficult for your family, right?" Gu Ding asked innocently.

Looking at the appearance of Gu Ding, Tang Bo knew that this kid was trying to trick people again, so he chose to stand aside and watch the excitement.

The young man looked unmoved: "You said that the disaster in Baowangheling was serious. I don't know how my father and my family are doing now. Although I am my father's heir, I have been missing for more than five years. My father It is very likely that the heir has been changed. If I go back now, not only will it become a burden on my family, but it will also bring trouble to our family's inheritance rights, and once the inheritance rights are confused, it will be the beginning of chaos for a family like ours. "

Gu Ding tilted his head: "If you are loyal to our lord, you will never be able to go back and inherit your father's territory, at least not within ten years. Are you really willing to give up your right of inheritance and continue to be a slave?"

The young man said very calmly: "I believe that your lord paid such a high price to save us, and he won't just let us be slaves."

"Do you expect that after you reveal your identity, we will immediately let you go home, or go to your father and make a deal with your father?" Gu Ding tilted his head.

The young man's face remained unchanged: "I don't deny that I also hold this hope. If my father is willing and able to pay a hundred gold coins, and my heir position remains unchanged, I will be happy to go home."

Gu Ding smiled, and said to Tang Bo: "This is a smart man, let him stay, we just need a leader. Don't worry about his rebellion, he dared to name his family, he is telling us that he is not Will mutiny, unless he hates his family."

The young man's approach is indeed very smart. Bailuling and Baowangheling have no grievances and no enmity. Looking at their posture in entering Sita County, [-]% of them are not compatible with the princess of Sita County. Then Baowangheling and Bailuling Naturally became an ally.

The worries that the young man said are also true. If his family has already established a new heir, he will only add chaos to the family if he goes back.At the same time, it is equivalent to preparing another way for the family.

If the flood is severe and all family members are separated in the flood or are in a state of starvation and poverty, he can join the White Deer Collar, or he can ask the White Deer Collar to help save people.

In addition, he can be very sure that after the flood, Princess Sita will definitely find a scapegoat, so is there a better scapegoat than his father and the Zhen family?

If Grand Duke Luma punishes their town family, he can also try to find a way to get his family out as much as possible if he joins the White Deer Collar.

And looking at the posture of the white deer leader, it seems that there is a faint intention to cause trouble in the Luma Principality, otherwise they would not lead the victims to take down the wild boar collar, and even killed the lord's family and the slave traders here.

This also coincided with the young man's thoughts and interests. He... hated Princess Sita to the core, and also hated Duke Luma for his unfairness.

Tang Bo quietly observed the young man.

The young man didn't look like he was lying, but he didn't tell the whole truth.But this is enough for him, no matter what kind of selfishness the young man has, as long as he is willing to work, he dares to use it.

He really lacks talents now, let alone the time to cultivate talents.

This has led to the fact that each management team of Bailuling has its own flaws, but he is still willing to use it because he needs time to train successors. When the people he trains grow up, those with problems in the previous generation can be replaced.

Xiaotian popped up suddenly, leaned on his ear and said: "If you want to know if he is lying, you can just observe his soul power. Can I teach you this?"

Tang Bo smiled in his mind: "Thank you for reminding me, I'm already using it."

Xiaotian said with satisfaction: "Soul power is everywhere, and soul power is also the best weapon and tool to use. Don't waste your majestic soul power, make good use of it."

While accepting the youth's allegiance, Tang Bo casually said to Xiaotian in his mind: "Will the conversation between the two of us be noticed by a third party?"

Xiaotian said with certainty: "Impossible. Unless the combined soul power of the other party is stronger than both of us, but this does not exist at all, unless he is the emperor of the demon race."

Tang Bo's heart skipped a beat, "You said the combined soul power of the two of us can equal the soul power of the demon king?"

Xiaotian's answer this time was a bit vague: "Probably, but at least it will not be lower than the prince level. Don't underestimate the thickness of your soul power."

Tang Bo asked more casually: "Then can you detect that there are other contractors in my soul besides you? Any contract."

"Do you have other contractors? Impossible, why didn't this king find out?" Xiaotian disappeared, and it took a while to answer in Tang Bo's mind: "Your soul sea is too vast, and this king may not have searched carefully before. Give me some time, if there are other contractors, I will definitely find them!"

Tang Bo: "Look slowly, don't rush."

King Xiaotian was angry: "How can this kind of thing not be rushed? You have contracted someone else besides this king?"

"I have no contract with anyone except you."

"Wait, you are not telling me that you have been forcibly contracted by others, are you? Damn idiot! You have a contractor?" Xiaotian's voice sounded angrily, "Who is it? The other party's soul power Stronger than you? Or were you contracted when you were weak?"

Tang Bo licked his lips, and taught Gu Ding the magic formula of the sacrifice healing magic circle, and let Gu Ding continue to preside over the sacrifice treatment.

The most difficult part of this sacrificial treatment is the magic circle, and the formula is not difficult, not to mention that Gu Ding himself has a good grasp of the knowledge of the demon race.

Gu Ding is now learning and selling, and the second wave of sacrificial treatment will be handed over to him.

Gu Ding rolled his eyes, the young man was a talent he valued very much, as a result, whether it was Tang Bo or the young man, the meeting between the two was not exciting at all, even the young man joining Tang Bo was more like a deal, Rather than being moved or inspired or anything.

To be honest, Tang Bo is really not a very qualified lord.

He is capable, but he doesn't have the ambition and passion to be a lord. Many things are more like completing tasks, or simply improving his own living conditions.

But he was developing his territory urgently and quickly, as if he was going to be swallowed by others later.

Gu Ding left a question in his heart, why did Tang Bo train him to be a lord?Is he really not afraid that he will rob him of everything?

Gu Ding wanted to know more, what did Tang Bo care about?

territory?

No, definitely not territory.

That's a person?

But he didn't realize who Tang Bo really cared about, including him... Huh!

There was a very strange mood at the scene. The people watching the sacrificial healing were both afraid of Tang Bo and Gu Ding, and thankful that they had such a leader.

But it is undeniable that this method of using the lives of captives as sacrifices to heal the wounded is really a bit of a demon...

Even the white deer leader was muttering in his heart, but before Tang Bo showed the special ability to absorb the vitality of other creatures to heal his own personnel, they also accepted the use of the sacrificial magic array to save people, but someone next to him mentioned The word Mozu, they are a little bit fried.

Tang Bo temporarily let go of public opinion.

He and Gu Ding, including other people in Bailuling, may use magic circles in the future. Perhaps magic knowledge such as magic circles will become one of the common knowledge of Bailuling.

Instead of making people fearful and talking about it after the fact, or even using it as an excuse to attack him, it is better to let the white deer leader and his followers get used to it from the beginning, and when they learn the knowledge of the demon race and know the principle, it will be no good Scared.

Similarly, the lord of the White Hart Lord may be a demon, and the "rumor" of using the power of the demon is spreading now. Although some people will fear him and dare not vote for him, if they decide to vote for him, they will also accept the "truth". ", so that he will not be provoked by others in the future, and he will fall to his enemies in fear, causing civil strife in Bailuling.

Tang Bo didn't say that he had mastered the industrial knowledge from his previous life, so he left aside the demon knowledge. In his opinion, as long as it is easy to use, it can be used, and any power is nothing more than a tool.

Isn't nuclear power scary?It can also be a service energy.

With this kind of relaxed attitude, Tang Bo was responsible for accepting the allegiance of the slave soldiers who were rescued, and at the same time divided his mind to talk to Xiaotian.

He didn't dare to talk to Xiaotian with all his mind, he was afraid that Goudan would notice him if he concentrated his mind too much.

So when he talked to Xiaotian, it was like chatting casually, even a bit of a hammer and a stick.

But Xiaotian lived for too many years, and was connected with Tang Bo's soul again, and soon discovered Tang Bo's intentions and difficulties.

"What's going on? Tell me clearly. Don't worry, you won't discover any existence in your conversation with this king now, even if he is hidden in your soul core." King Xiaotian said very confidently.

Tang Bo relaxed slightly: "I don't know how the other party made the contract with me, but it is indeed bound to my soul, and I couldn't find it by searching. I don't know if it is a contract, but it has ways to reward me and even punish me I."

Tang Bo roughly described the situation of Goudan to Xiaotian.

After thinking about it, Xiaotian said: "This king knows, that existence should have made a compulsory contract with you while you were about to die."

"I don't know, can this kind of contract be established?"

"Although it is a mandatory contract, it is also a contract, and since it is now bound to your soul and can have a certain impact on you, it means that the contract has been established."

"But I didn't agree, is there a way to cancel it?"

Xiaotian groaned: "It doesn't need your consent. You said that you died abnormally in your previous life, right? Even though you said you gave up trying to survive when you were dying, any living thing will have a certain feeling in your heart even if it doesn't want to live anymore when it is dying. Some desire for survival, not too much, even if it is only one ten-thousandth, if there is a certain existence that perceives your desire for survival and saves you, then in theory, it does not need your consent, and you have already established some kind of relationship with it. Exchange contract."

Tang Bo: "...is there no way to get rid of it?"

"Of course there is a way." Xiaotian Dawang said confidently: "A compulsory contract is actually better than a voluntary contract. The easiest way is to beat it to death as long as you are stronger than it, and the contract will naturally not have to be fulfilled. Or force the other party to terminate the contract. If not, just fulfill the other party's request to you, but the way of completion can be done in our way. What does it want you to do?"

"Being an iron-blooded lord cannot be regarded as the holy father." Tang Bo explained the negative meaning of the holy father, and said: "But I think its purpose is to force my soul to degenerate. It is not impossible for the entire Luma Principality, but in the situation where I am extremely short of manpower and food, if I want to stabilize the land I have laid down, I have only one way, and that is to keep robbing and killing, grabbing food supplies The army, kill until people are afraid, kill until people dare not resist me."

"But even if this Luma Principality is taken by me, I don't have time to recuperate, because the Luma Principality is just a principality, and there is a kingdom above her, the Tonglei Kingdom. As a king, you can allow a part of your country to be taken away like this." Will a small baron be defeated? No need for the king to say anything, other nobles will attack me. In this way, I can only fall into constant battles, killing and killing all day long."

"After a long time, the killings are more bloody, just like a butcher who kills too many animals will no longer have mercy on the animals. I will also lose mercy on human life. I will even resist and challenge me because too many people. Become warlike and murderous, and even hate humans."

Xiaotian sneered: "I understand, this is the consistent handle of some guys from the Demon Race, and some of them like to use this method to obtain powerful souls. And this kind of powerful soul is said to taste particularly good after being lost. The power is particularly strong. In this process of soul degeneration and loss, he will also kill more people and create more mournful and desperate souls, which will be devoured by the demons living on him."

Tang Bo vented and calmed down: "I can fulfill his request, not to mention iron-blooded, it is fine to make myself a cold-blooded lord, but it sets a level, and the goal must be achieved by accumulating points by completing tasks .Now I'm only level five, and the level it sets is level twelve. We can fully predict that if I dare to resist and deal with it, the tasks it will issue later will definitely become more and more difficult. And as long as I can't complete the task, It can use excuses to punish me, erase my ability, space, and even devour my soul power."

"A nasty and shrewd guy." Xiaotian felt inexplicably that he had lost.But it also felt that the other party was stupid. They had already become Tang Bo's savior, but they used this method to obtain Tang Bo's soul power. Wouldn't it be good to cooperate and win-win like this?

Well, it was also willing to sign an equal contract with Tang Bo after being defeated.If it is possible to get Tang Bo's complete soul power or even more, it will not let Tang Bo go, but it is lazy. When it encounters someone with Tang Bo's soul power, it will at most be greedy, and it will never let it go. Take the initiative to provoke.

Tang Bo sighed: "The biggest problem now is that I can't find it, but it can determine my life and death."

"Leave this to this king, lend your soul power to this king, and completely open your soul sea to this king... Do you believe in this king? As long as you trust me, this king can help you find the other party in the world." The soul anchor set in your soul sea. And as long as we find the soul anchor of the other party, we can cut off the connection between the other party and your soul, so that it can no longer control you. We can even find the other party's hiding place along the soul anchor, completely fix it."

"I choose the latter, I want to find it and solve it completely!"

"So you are willing to give up the space and special abilities that the other party gave you? Are you willing?"

Tang Bo is reluctant, especially the space, but compared to the future, he would rather give up everything he got from Goudan: "Be willing."

Xiaotian slapped Tang Bo, "Fool! Why give up the good things you got? Those are the rewards you got for doing the tasks, okay? In other words, you have already completed the small contract, and taking it back is a violation of the contract. You It’s perfectly fine to keep the space and special abilities you get.”

Tang Bo narrowed his eyes: "What should I do?"
