Lord of Rot

Chapter 327 Accidentally Killed His Two Sons
early morning.

Longship Castle, Church.

Today is the christening day for the newborn Baron Longship.

Li Qi and other nobles were already waiting in the church.

He looked up at the statues of the four gods.

No one knew what Li Qi was thinking, only that he was praying to God as a faithful believer of the Four Gods.

There are indeed prayers, but Li Qi belongs to the type of cramming. If he sees it occasionally, he will pray when he thinks of it.

There is no church in Porcupine Collar, but there is a large deserted monastery in Iron Valley, but it has been occupied by Li Qijiu, and it is filled with undead.

So in terms of piety, Li Qi has nothing at all.

"Master Li Qi, you are a loyal servant of the Four Gods." The Bishop of the Four Gods Church in Shuijian looked at Li Qi with a smile.

In his subconscious mind, Li Qi, who is favored by the gods, must be a faithful believer of the four gods, and the actual situation may be completely different from what he imagined.

Li Qi just smiled. He made more than a dozen wishes to the Four Gods just now, including but not limited to letting him pick up a dragon egg, letting him accidentally salvage the treasure of the sunken ship, etc.

It is useless for God to want treasure and gold. It is better to give it to himself, and it can also save those poor believers who have no food to eat.

He thinks this deal is a good deal, but he is not sure what Sishen thinks.

"May the four gods bless you."

"May the four gods bless you."

As the door of the church was pushed open, Mrs. Jielin came holding the child.

People turned their heads and set their eyes on the young figure who was protected in the swaddle.

Black hair, also born to Mrs. Jielin, must be the blood of the Wodu family.

Mrs. Jielin carried the child to the statue of the Four Gods.

The ceremony officially begins.

Everyone was completely quiet, and a needle could be heard.

"Four gods, please listen to us!" The priest looked at the baby in the swaddle.

The baby looked at him with open black eyes.

The priest couldn't help showing a warm smile, but he quickly restrained his expression and began to chant prayers: "O great four gods, without your help, we are all sinners. We pray to you, please let us have peace." Qualified to enter the Kingdom of God."

He nodded slightly to Mrs. Jielin.

Mrs. Jielin put the swaddling clothes on the table and unfolded them, revealing the little guy who was kicking his legs.

A basin of warm water that had been prepared earlier was served.

The priest continued to chant: "Lild Vodou, the first baptism you received today enables you to become a follower of the Four Gods, and the Four Gods promise to protect you for the rest of your life."

He stretched out his hand, tested the temperature of the water with one hand to make sure there was no problem, then stretched out his hand to drag little Lild, and slowly soaked him in the warm water of the tub to accept the baptism.

The baptism of the four gods is baptism, but they will be very gentle when facing children.

Especially since this baby is still a future fief baron, no one dares to make a problem.

"Today I baptize you in the name of the Father"

Little Lild, who was immersed in the water, didn't feel uncomfortable, but shook his arms slowly.

He was slowly dragged up and lifted his body out of the water.

Mrs. Jielin kept guarding nervously.

Li Qi was also staring below.

"I baptize you in the name of a knight"

As he spoke, he submerged little Lild into the water again.

"I baptize you in the name of a woman"

Lift up again, dip in.

"I baptize you in the name of a prisoner"

After the four baptisms, little Lild was placed on the blanket that had been prepared long ago. Mrs. Jielin quickly wiped off the water droplets on his body, and then put little Lild back into the swaddle and wrapped it up carefully so that he would not get sick.

The priest continued: "This child is a gift given to us by the Four Gods, and it is also the crystallization of love in the world. May this love accompany his continuous growth."

The entire baptism was quiet, with people holding their breath for fear of interrupting the sacred ceremony.

Some people looked at little Lild with fiery eyes.

A young lord of Shuijian will surely bring greater glory to Shuijian when he grows up. Their nobles of Shuijian are not about to die, but have a brand new future.

Loyalty increases rapidly.

But there is another person whose expression is more subtle, Leed?
Such an ancestor did appear in the history of the Wodu family, and his strength seems to be good, and there are some achievements, but that's it.

On the contrary, Leald Clarence, that is, the deceased old Baron Porcupine, has a greater reputation, and almost all the nobles of the East Gorge have heard of his name.

It should be just a coincidence, otherwise... Could it be that this child belongs to Li Qi?How can it be!

Speaking of the old Porcupine, they all subconsciously compared themselves with the new Baron Porcupine, and got a very positive answer. The old Porcupine was not as good as the new Baron Porcupine.

After Li Qi's achievements are spread, the whole kingdom will hear his name.

300 defeated 2000 people without any casualties. I am afraid no one will believe it.

Some people looked at Li Qi and really suspected that this child had something to do with Li Qi, otherwise why would he come?
Finding that there was only a faint smile on his face, these people started to beat their hearts again, feeling that the possibility was too low.

The baptism is over.

Mrs. Jielin will hold a celebration in a month. Originally, this celebration should be held today, but the previous battle consumed all the development of Shuijiandi in one year, and it returned to the beginning.

But with this little sacrifice, the monkey's harassment can be solved, no matter what, I feel that I have made a lot of money.

The coffin that Li Qi had been waiting for was finally opened.

His mental power drilled into the body of the dead body, and soon saw the memory of the other party.

The man's name was Baker Bill Jr.

His grandmother was Annal Bill Jr., the aunt of Old Monkey's Wells Bill.

This woman has some abilities. When she was married, she fell in love with a man who was not a nobleman. Sure enough, the man made great achievements very quickly and canonized him as a nobleman.

Annael successfully married this man, and was given the surname "Little Bill", which means that she and "Bill" are in the same family, but they are "smaller" and will be smaller for the rest of their lives.

The Little Bill family has successfully reproduced, but the population is not prosperous.

Relevant memories are stinky and long, Li Qi just confirmed one thing, this person who is somewhat similar to La Bill is actually La Bill's cousin and a follower of La Bill.

Moreover, Li Qi also got a piece of news that shocked him from Baker's follow-up memory.

Wells Beale suddenly recovered from his dying state and became alive and well.

And Baker Bill also heard Wells singing simple fragments many times.

"Apostle of the Moon God..."

A team came outside Longship Fort.

Li Qi and Erin quickly came to the walls of Longship Fort.

"Master Li Qi!" Outside the city wall, on the land across the river, there were more than a dozen cavalrymen.

When a white-haired veteran looked up and saw Li Qi on the city wall, he was immediately pleasantly surprised.

"Master Taylor" Li Qi was surprised: "Why are you here?"

The person who came was Taylor Ross. He helped Li Qi lay down the Iron Valley a few months ago, but he didn't expect him to appear in the water stream.

"I'm here on the Duke's order." Taylor Rose raised a postbox in his hand and waved it at Li Qi.

Not to mention shaking it from such a long distance, even if he opened the letter for him to read, Li Qi couldn't see clearly.

Li Qi turned to look at Erin, she nodded to the soldiers beside her and said, "Put down the drawbridge, and please come in, Lord Taylor Ross!"

The suspension bridge was lowered slowly, and Li Qi and Yi Lin went down the city wall to greet him at the gate.

Tyler Ross, who was on the road in a hurry, looked in poor condition and was very tired.

Li Qi first hugged Taylor Ross warmly.

He was very fond of the old baron.

"Did the Duke ever save his life?" Li Qi wondered.

Otherwise, why throw it to Tyler Ross whenever there is crying and tiring work, and he will not refuse, even if it is not good, he will accept it with gritted teeth.

On the surface, he definitely couldn't ask, and he could only hold back his curiosity.

"This is Miss Erin." Li Qi introduced to Taylor Ross: "Her sister is Mrs. Jielin, and she is now handling the affairs of Shuijian Land."

Tyler Ross bent slightly: "Good day, ma'am."

"Good day, Lord Taylor Ross" Erin immediately returned the salute.

Among the aristocrats, the Baron of the Iron Collar still has a great title, especially the undefeated myth of Taylor Ross, which is a familiar story for the aristocrats.

It's just that being undefeated...but not necessarily winning.

"How is Mrs. Jelin?" he asked.

Li Qi smiled: "The delivery has been successful, and the child has just been baptized in the church."

"Four gods bless!" Taylor Ross let out a long breath.

"I don't know, Mr. Taylor, why are you here this time...?" Li Qi asked.

"The battle between the monkey collar and the water stream has been reported to the Duke." Baron Taylor said, "The Duke is not feeling well, but he sent me here as soon as he got the news."

Li Qi originally wanted to ask why the 'Golden Stallion' Pine was not allowed to come, but he thought about it, and with Pine's character, he could directly take advantage of it.

If the 'Golden Stallion' were to persuade him to fight, probably no one would take any notice of him.

On the contrary, Taylor Ross, as a veteran nobleman, is old and well-connected, so it is quite appropriate for him to persuade the fight.

"What are you going to do?" Li Qi asked.

Tyler glanced at Erin and realized that she had no intention of interrupting.

Could it be that the Longship Fort is already under the control of Li Qi?
Should not be!

Taylor secretly thought that he was thinking too much. It should be that Mrs. Jielin finally brought in a reinforcement with not bad strength.

"I'm mainly here to mediate this war," he said, "Don't worry, I'll let the monkey soldiers return to the monkey collar."

"They won't necessarily give you face." Li Qi shook his head, speaking very straightforwardly.

The duke's face may be used.

Tyler Ross's face is still a little worse.

"So I brought this" Tyler brought out the mailbox from before.

"This is?"

Li Qi saw the golden thorn sword sealant on the letter box.

"This is in the hands of the Bill family," Taylor Ross said. "Using this will definitely make the monkey soldiers retreat, but the water stream land may have to cede some benefits."

Cede land for peace.

Is this how the duke came up with?
Yi Lin's expression on the side was not good, but she also knew very well that if Li Qi's magical soldiers hadn't fallen from the sky, it would be a luxury for them to cede land and seek peace.

Li Qi said: "I don't think this thing will be needed anymore."

"Huh?" Taylor Ross wondered, "Why?"

In fact, he also found something strange. Before he came, he heard that the monkey soldiers had besieged Longship Fort and were about to break into it.

But when he arrived, none of the monkey soldiers were seen.

After entering Longship Fort, he found that the soldiers here had relaxed smiles on their faces, without any embarrassment of being besieged.

Yilin finally spoke, and she explained: "Lord Li Qi has defeated the monkey soldiers."

"what!!!"

Even someone as steady as Taylor couldn't help raising his volume after hearing the news.

The people around all turned their heads to look over.

Taylor Ross was a little embarrassed, and asked in a low voice: "Master Li Qi, this, is this true?"

"Well, it's true."

"They have 2000 people?"

"Almost, not counted," Li Qi said, "However, more than 600 people have been captured, and they are in the dungeon. You can go and see."

Taylor asked, "How many people did you bring to win this battle?"

He still remembered that when Li Qi attacked Iron Valley a few months ago, Li Qi led about a hundred soldiers.

At that time, Li Qi was like a god of war. He took the lead and charged up the city wall alone.

In such a short period of time, no matter how much money and energy Li Qi invested, it was impossible to train soldiers who could go to the battlefield.

"300 people," Li Qi said.

300 beats 2000?

Are you telling a porcupine collar joke?Why didn't I find it funny at all!
"Really?" Taylor looked at Erin.

Erin nodded: "Really."

"hiss!"

Taylor took a deep breath. He remembered the porcupine Baron Leald Clarence who once killed all directions on the battlefield, but compared him with Li Qi... the difference was too much.

Baron Porcupine is just covered in thorns, and he can't beat him or not.

But Li Qi could win with a difference of several times less than the enemy, which is a bit too much.

and!

Li Qi only had more than 100 elite soldiers, and the extra [-] must have been temporarily recruited militiamen or mercenaries. At most, after rough training in swinging swords, they drove ducks to the battlefield.

But the 2000 of the monkey family are all real elites.

Taylor, who was only planning to show off his old face, now feels his scalp is itchy, why is it like this!He doesn't understand!
"Now that the siege of Longship Fort has been resolved, I can rest assured that the matter is resolved." Taylor said, "Then I will return to Roaring Castle with the news of Mrs. Jielin's birth."

"Solved?" Li Qi was surprised: "It hasn't been solved yet."

Taylor thumped in his heart, of course he knew what Li Qi meant, but he was just pretending to let Li Qi let go.

It means you've already won the fight, so forget it.

Although the monkey family suffered a defeat and lost 2000 elites, the emaciated camels are bigger than horses. You may not be able to do anything, so you might as well just accept it when you see it.

"Master Taylor, I want to ask you a question"

"Excuse me," Taylor said.

Li Qi asked: "Lord Taylor, how can I avenge my son's murder?"

"Who did you kill?" Taylor's heart trembled.

It is rare for nobles to kill enemy nobles on the battlefield, and everyone takes captives.

"Ra Bill, accidentally blew his head off."

What a careless one!
"This..." Taylor Ross said: "The sword has no eyes on the battlefield, and it is normal to die alone."

There is an unwritten rule among the nobles that death in battle belongs to honor, not personal enmity.

As for whether you really think so in your heart, it's hard to say.

Tyler Ross immediately added: "And Wells Bill has a son."

Li Qi asked, "Just Dryden Bill?"

"Wells Bill really has only two sons."

Bastards do not count, because illegitimate children have no inheritance rights.

But he didn't understand why Li Qi asked this question.

"Could it be...?" He suddenly had a strong feeling.

Li Qi asked: "Can the hatred of killing both sons be erased?"

Taylor smiled wryly, how did the monkey family get into trouble with Li Qi, and both bloodlines were slaughtered.

According to his understanding, Wells Bill's body is not as good as before, and he has no possibility of giving birth.

This hatred cannot be erased.

"He, and a daughter..." Taylor Ross said boldly.

Daughters do have an inheritance, and there's even an appearance of a Baroness.

But the rancor doesn't just go away.

"Hey" Li Qi sighed: "I also want to stop here, but I can't sleep well because of a powerful enemy."

This is a signal.

Tyler Ross' heart was pounding wildly.

He calculated in his mind, if Li Qi attacked Houlingshanzhang Fort, how likely was it to succeed?
The answer is, it must be successful!
It's not that Taylor has absolute confidence in Li Qi, but that Li Qi always seems to hide his strength and never shows his true strength.

Every time only a little bit is exposed, it will cause a terrifying effect.

Will the Duke allow Li Qi to attack the monkey leader?Certainly not allowed.

Now the essence of Longship Castle has been intervened by Li Qi, and when Li Qi takes down the monkey collar, his territory will directly become the four lands of porcupine collar, iron valley, water stream land and monkey collar.

Didn't he directly control the southernmost part of the East Gorge!

Moreover, Monkey Land and Shuijian Land are not as barren as Iron Valley and Porcupine Land. With the support of the four territories, plus Li Qi's ability at this time... This is not what the Duke wants to see.

The Duke now just wants to see stability.

"Lord Li Qi" Taylor Ross said with a wry smile: "I came here with the order of the Duke. If he knows that I failed to stop the war between the two places, I will be in big trouble."

You are in big trouble, and it has something to do with my blood feud.

But Li Qi said: "It's simple, you just need to write a letter to tell the Duke that you are a day late."

"A day late?"

One day, you can't do it from Longship Fort to Monkey Collar. Could it be that you can fly.

"Wow—!"

The rocket came and swooped down.

Taylor horrified: "What is that?"

Li Qi did not introduce, but said with a smile: "One day is enough."

The rocket landed beside Li Qi.

When he got close, Taylor could see clearly how huge this eagle-headed pegasus was. The ordinary war horse was completely smaller in front of it, and it walked over with a strong sense of danger.

This is an extremely fierce and powerful monster!

"Master Li Qi, I want to write a letter to Roaring Castle, I don't know..."

"Of course!" Li Qi said, "Eileen, take Lord Taylor to write a letter."

Taylor wanted to write a letter, first stating the current situation of the Battle of Shuijiandi, the battle was over, and it was because of Li Qi's strong insertion that the battle situation was reversed.

Secondly, Li Qi wants to destroy the monkey family.

But after thinking about it, he still didn't write down this paragraph.

"Just like Master Li Qi said, what I got in exchange for obstructing his war with the Bill family was the final eruption of the future."

Even if the duke forcibly suppressed the endless situation, it would not be quiet for too long.

Taylor Ross is more inclined to maintain real peace. Suppressing hatred will not bring real peace, but will cause more dissatisfaction and lead to more deaths.

It would be better if I came a day "late". When I arrived, Li Qi had already killed that unpopular old monkey Wells Bill.

It is a foregone conclusion, and there is no way to recover.

It's far better than admonishing yourself to fail, and it saves you from being implicated.

But in that case, the letter would have to be sent out a day later, and Li Qi must really have the ability to pass through layers of protection and directly kill Wells Bill.

That's what Li Qi is going to do, it has nothing to do with him.

One day, send a favor.

Tyler Ross quickly scribbled a third.

Mrs. Jielin has given birth to a son named Leed Vodou.

He suggested conferring Leald Waudo as the Baron of Shuijiandi as quickly as possible.

Otherwise, after a while, the owner of the entire water stream land will not be surnamed Wodu, but Clarence!

What he thought was indeed right, but it didn't take a while, the castle was now the property of Li Qi's son.
