Lord of Rot

"Yes!" Joe nodded, he understood his mission.

If Quick Blade is the happiest person to form the cavalry, then Joe's joy is second only to Quick Blade.

The lord had promised him to go to Zhutou Mountain for revenge, and when the army was formed, it would be realized as soon as possible.

"When I come back, I will arrange for people to go to Zhutou Mountain to investigate," Li Qi said.

Qiao nodded heavily. Sure enough, the lord has not forgotten it.

"As for Grant, I can't finish talking about your mission at the dinner table."

Grant smiled and nodded: "Yes, my lord."

The person who manages the most things in the entire Porcupine Territory is Grant. Although the young apprentices under him learn quickly and can help him complete most of the trivial tasks, there are still too many things that will be reported to Grant.

Pests in farmland, chicken thieves in chicken farms, people in beekeeping villages stealing bees and getting stung, and other small things.

There are also masons' further research on lime, fishing in the sea and discovering strange creatures, disputes over the location of land for building houses, craftsmen not working hard, etc.

In addition, the management of slaves in Ake will also report to him.

Slaves were sick, pretended to be sick, fought for work points, and were unwilling to work when they had work points.

There were also egregious rapes.

The last thing is easy to do, because the lord has already ordered that the rape incident is listed as the most serious incident. Once discovered, the soldiers under Kuaishou will be immediately involved in the investigation, and the city hall and other small stewards from all parties need to participate to ensure that fair and just.

Then there is the investigation. If the matter is true and the criminal confesses, then you can discuss with the victim. If the victim agrees to receive compensation and forgiveness, pay the money. In addition to paying the victim's compensation, you must also pay a fine to the lord, and the prisoner Also get whipped.

It can be said that Porcupine Collar has zero tolerance for rapists.

If it is discovered after investigation that someone has made a false report, the false accusation may lead to tongue pulling out, imprisonment, or being demoted to a slave.

When Li Qi proposed that this aspect must be handled strictly, Gulen discussed more than 30 basic trial conditions with him, but they were still not rigorous enough.

There is too much room for maneuver in this, including investigation and evidence collection, whether there is bribery, etc.

Li Qi was unwilling to beat him to death with a stick because he knew that there might be many unjust, false and wrong cases.

Another point, Li Qi specifically emphasized, is that rapists are not only men, but also women.

Children, the elderly, women, men, etc. are all within the scope of protection. Don’t think that only men can become perpetrators, men can also become victims.

No matter how strange human habits are, it is not surprising.

As the "chief steward" of the Porcupine Territory, Grant must intervene in all matters, and then handle these matters before handing them over to the lord.

For this reason, Grant has considered training a dozen more apprentices and asking his two apprentices to lead them.

At the same time, the lord also proposed a teaching method to him. It was very novel. He taught apprentices in large numbers, and then passed a knowledge test to determine who can hold what position. This teaching model has never appeared in Lurea continent. Everyone knows that Apprentices learn by following the words and deeds of their teachers.

But this mass education method also has advantages, as it can quickly draw out a group of available manpower.

Li Qi raised his glass: "For a better porcupine collar, gentlemen."

"For a better porcupine collar!"

"For a better porcupine collar!"

"For a better porcupine collar!"

The three raised their glasses.

a few days later.

Honey, pills, food grains, etc. were transported to the car.

Li Qi set off with 20 fully armed soldiers in a carriage, with his valet Pitchfork, and his retinue Carrot and Little Joel.

In fact, he still wants to take Ake with him. Her insect control ability combined with the eagle eye magic can play a great role, especially since her insect control ability has been enhanced recently.

But after all, we are going on a 'blind date'. It is not suitable to bring a "female favorite" on the carriage. This is not good for the image of the unmarried baron.

Li Qi also made a special trip to see Betty in the Headland Crypt last night.

She was researching like crazy, and Li Qi guessed that she might have been locked up for too long, causing a change in her personality.

The other party learned that he would not be back in the near future, and she had brought enough food, fresh water, and a change of clothes. She had no special emotions and didn't care at all. She just wanted to study magic gunpowder and explosions.

"I'm a little reluctant to leave." Li Qi sat in the carriage and looked outside through the gap.

After traveling for so long, it was the first time to stay away from the Porcupine Territory.

But his attention was quickly diverted: "It's not convenient to see the scenery, and the necessary research on glass must be done as soon as possible. Forget it, since we have left the castle, let's relax our brain."

He rubbed his head to stop himself from thinking so much.

The carriage left the Porcupine Territory, and the road made the carriage bumpy. It didn't feel very comfortable to sit in the carriage, and I would be bounced off the seat a few times.

Fortunately, he finally stopped the carriage, got out of the carriage, rode on horseback, and chatted with the soldiers.

Although they set off early, they still failed to reach Iron Stone City by nightfall and only walked half the distance.

This place has many traces of life due to the traffic of Qiao's caravans.

For example, the earthen stoves for living and the small sheds for shelter from wind and rain are all used directly.

Bonfires were lit.

The aroma of barbecue fills the air.

The bacon prepared in advance is simply grilled and sizzling with oil. When paired with the hot bread, the taste is simply perfect!

Li Qi ate more carefully, because there was a small pot with him, which could add two fried eggs.

"We can build a post station here later to facilitate the caravan to rest."

I'm lucky today, it didn't rain.

After eating, Li Qi went into the carriage to rest. The carriage compartment, modified by a carpenter, could be opened up and used as a small bed for sleeping.

There are also people keeping vigil at night.

Li Qi did not bring a dead body with him on this trip because it was too far away, he was not sure of the limits of how to control the corpse, and there were many people and distractions.

However, a carriage still contains relevant materials, herbs for preparing preservatives, etc. If necessary, they can be prepared as soon as possible to create a dead body.

There is also a limit to controlling corpses. If the unit of mental power is related to the control distance, maybe as he gets stronger, he can control further and further away.

In fact, Li Qi is still thinking about another method, like a transfer station. If he can find some way to build a signal tower to expand his spiritual coverage, maybe one day he can sit in the Porcupine Castle and have morning tea, At the same time, he controlled the dead bodies to gallop on the grasslands of Endor.

Although there are many things to think about, the most important thing now is to let the porcupine get rich first.

After a good sleep, I woke up in the morning feeling refreshed.

Li Qi got off the car.

The valet came with a basin for him to wash himself.

The retinue prepared food.

Because I was on the road, it was impossible to eat soup for breakfast, so I had to eat dry food.

The journey was monotonous.

In 7 days, I can walk about 40 kilometers a day. The ground is flat, I have enough food and water, and there are few people and no luggage. If a large army actually fights with various military supplies, the speed is estimated to drop to about 30 kilometers.

If you march in a hurry, your speed can be doubled. Human potential is unlimited. Li Qi is not in a hurry. He hopes to encounter a few more caves with gold or silver mines, but he is disappointed.

The soldiers didn't have any dissatisfaction, but they all hoped that the two bandits would come and exercise, it was really boring.

Li Qi could only smile at these words.

This team of my own is a real elite soldier, with polished armor and noble flags. Even a team of one or two hundred people would not dare to come here to cause trouble.

Bandits and robbers are all people who cannot afford to eat. Letting them use hoes to deal with elite soldiers is no different than sending them to death.

When they saw their team, they had already run away.

On the 9th day of the journey, the team also arrived at Shuijian Territory.

The farmland along the way is deserted, and there are not many people taking care of it.

Compared to the food in Porcupine Collar, it looks terrible here.

"It's a pity to waste such a rich land," Li Qi secretly thought.

War can make people crazy, especially if civilians don't farm well and follow the tenth illegitimate child who pops up. It's weird if they can get ahead.

Li Qi's two retinues were responsible for the investigation at the front. They took care of each other to prevent one from being trapped, and the other could come back in time to ask for help.

Little Joel rode back and said anxiously: "Sir, there is someone blocking the road ahead!"
