Lord of Rot

Chapter 49 Colds
When Li Qi arrived at the stable, the groom was bending over to prepare forage.

Mu Liemane was the first to notice Li Qi's arrival, and turned to look at him.

Li Qi walked over, reached out and gently stroked the head of the mare's mane.

The groom who stood up straight turned his head, saw Li Qi, and immediately put down the fodder in his hand: "My lord!"

"Well, how's it going?"

He doesn't know much about mare pregnancy and breeding, but he knows that his groom is not simple. He is specially hired by the baron to take care of the war horses. He even has to ask him when breeding pigs and sheep.

"Very healthy and strong," the groom replied, "It takes about 300 days for the pony to give birth."

"Take good care of it. I'll arrange craftsmen to repair the stables. If you need money, go to Grant." Li Qi emphasized, "This horse must be kept safe!"

The groom only thought that the baron was nervous about the war horse, which was only bought by a golden bear. A war horse can match a knight.

Especially after hearing the baron's big reward, the groom nodded repeatedly. From today on, he will definitely take care of the pregnant mare as his own mother.

300 days is not too long.

With the emergence of the tide of magic, the appearance of griffins, and even the appearance of extraordinary knights, I don't know what the world will be like. By then, it is reasonable to have a flying horse.

Since the news of the mother's pregnancy was confirmed, Li Qi was in a good mood for the next few days.

Another snowfall covered the porcupine collar with a layer of white.

Li Qi sat in front of the fireplace with a fur blanket on his knees, and the firelight made his side face red.

He was reading a book called "Miss Gregory". The story told the story of a lady from a noble family. Because of the death of her parents and siblings in a power struggle, she escaped from the cage of the castle and worshiped a powerful Assassin as a teacher, follow each other to learn the superb assassin skills, embark on a journey of revenge.

But the battle for the king broke out, and Miss Gregory's target had to follow the enemy to the battlefield.

Miss Gregory failed to take revenge, her enemy died on the battlefield, and she also chose to step on the battlefield for her own country and nation, and in the name of Gregory, summoned knights who were willing to serve herself.

At this time, Li Qi was reading that Miss Gregory summoned the knights, because they were trapped in the desperate area of ​​​​the valley and had to fight with their backs.

In the straight canyon, Miss Gregory put on the helmet visor and held up the long sword in her hand.

Everyone fell silent, staring at her sword called "Hope of Fire", the horse sensed danger, and the horse's hooves stepped restlessly on the ground.

"charge!!"

With sixteen knights, facing hundreds of sieges, this was a fatal charge, but none of Miss Gregory's men hesitated.

Li Qi's blood was boiling with enthusiasm. This is one of the few books he can read. Miss Gregory, who is tolerant but brave like a man, carried out a suicide charge in an extremely romantic way.

It's just that later on, this book is a bit out of touch with reality. Flames erupted from the sword, and Miss Gregory slashed a bloody path. In the sea of ​​corpses and blood, her horse also collapsed from exhaustion. Miss Gregory Standing on the pile of corpses, he inserted his family's flag into it, and the blood-stained flag fluttered in the wind.

She took off her helmet, and the sun shone brightly on her silver hair.

I seriously suspect that this is the hang that was forcibly given to Miss Gregory. She couldn't beat it one second, but suddenly there was a mechanical descending second later, allowing her to defeat her enemy.

He only saw the battle in the canyon, and the book is still about one-tenth of the thickness, so it should be over.

Li Qi took a sip of hot tea. The best part of the early stage of the book was the part where Miss Gregory escaped from the castle through fighting wits and courage. With her familiarity with the castle and her agility, she saved her life.

On the contrary, it is a brief summary of the part of learning from the master assassin.

The most exciting thing is naturally the desperate charge. Anyone will have a good impression of Miss Gregory, who is not afraid of death and is invincible, with long breasts, thighs, thighs and buttocks.

A lot of ink has been wasted in the book on this aspect.

A gust of cold wind hit, Li Qi turned his head to look at Ge Lan, who was wearing white hair, walking tremblingly.

"grown ups!"

Glenn's expression looked bad.

"What's the matter, Glenn?" He put the book on the table casually, and got up and asked.

"Several slaves fell ill"

Grant said, "The body is hot and white smoke is coming out."

Severe cold weather, coupled with heavy snow, should be a cold.

Li Qi stood up: "Where's the pharmacist?"

"The medicine is already being dispensed, and I have also arranged for those who are not sick to go to other rooms, but" Grant hesitated for a moment, and said, "They should be burned to prevent infection."

Burn the sick and alive?

Li Qi's heart twitched slightly.

He knew that this was the method with the lowest cost that Glenn said. Feeding slaves to take medicine, I am afraid that the money to buy slaves would not be as expensive as the medicine. method.

Even death is a relief for them.

Li Qi sighed, no matter whether he was killed or burned to death, it did not conform to his values.

"Arrange someone to boil hot water immediately"

"Hot water?"

People here are not used to drinking hot water, but drinking cold water has a high chance of getting sick, so people are used to drinking thick soup and beer.

Li Qi nodded: "Boil the water in the river. All slaves, including the civilians in the porcupine collar, drink at least three cups of hot water every day!"

Drinking hot water cannot cure all diseases, but it is much stronger than simply using the body to resist, and drinking hot water feels comfortable and warms up.

When the dozing male servant found out that Li Qi was about to go out, he immediately picked up his clothes and put them on for him.

"I won't lose people." Li Qi said: "The group of sick people all gather in one house, and the pharmacist's dispensing medicine is used. Whether they can survive or not depends entirely on them."

He and Glenn walked out of the castle. Under the management of the security team, the slaves moved quietly. They knew the fate of the sick.

While I was glad that I didn't get sick, I also felt sad that my companion was about to die.

"Let me go in and take care of my sister, please!"

A teenager was kneeling on the ground, but was held down by the security team. Originally, the security team wanted to raise his foot, but when he saw the lord coming, he immediately put his foot down: "You are looking for death, you are not afraid of being infected when you go in?!"

"But, my sister is still inside!"

"The lord is coming"

"is the master"

The young man who was kneeling on the ground begging heard the voice and turned to look at the nobleman in a heavy overcoat. He wanted to pray to the lord, but he didn't dare to speak. Can't even initiate a conversation.

Maybe the lord didn't care, and even smiled and communicated, but afterward, the mad dog Ake would definitely beat them to death.

The benevolent lord certainly doesn't know about this. That mad dog Ake is too powerful, but they are slaves and can only suffer. As long as they are obedient, the mad dog will not do anything to them.

"Don't worry," the lord said: "I have arranged for a pharmacist to dispense the medicine, and the sick will not be thrown away. Everyone has a chance to be cured!"

Before the lord turned around to leave, he glanced at the young man: "Try to survive."

The cold was brought under control as the ice and snow melted, and recovered one by one.

According to the statistics of the 'widow' Gulen, a total of 44 people fell ill and 3 died during the cold treatment.

And since then, porcupines have acquired a habit of drinking boiled hot water in every household.
