Lord of Rot

Chapter 91
"Block the way?"

Li Qi grabbed the reins of the horse, grabbed the sword on the saddle, and ordered: "Speed ​​up and look ahead!"

The slow-moving soldiers also heard that someone was blocking the way, and immediately regained their spirits and speeded up.

The porcupine flag fluttered in the wind.

When Li Qi rode to the front of the road and saw those "robbers" blocking the road with broken wood, he was a little surprised.

Because they planed food in the fields all year round, they bent over to work, and their bodies were rickety.

The skin was sagging, the nails were black, the eyes were timid and dull.

In his hand he holds a hoe, an ax and a stick.

Those roadblockers are clearly a group of farmers.

When Li Qi, who was riding a tall horse, approached with soldiers in dazzling armor, the group of people trembled involuntarily.

Morale, spirit, and equipment are all at a disadvantage.

The only advantage is in numbers, there are about 60 or 20 of them, and Li Qi's side has more than [-] people.

But no one thinks that Li Qi's side is at a disadvantage.

"Are you going to block the road and rob?" Li Qi looked down and asked, "Tell me, who do you serve allegiance to?"

"We serve Lord Vodo!" a man with black teeth said boldly.

"Wodu?"

Li Qi was curious: "I remember that Baron Vodo has returned to the embrace of the Four Gods."

"It's the son of Baron Vodo, the owner of Longship Castle!" The black-toothed man became more courageous, and he remembered that he had a big backer.

It turned out to be a team of illegitimate children. At first he thought the other party was a joke, but now he saw that it was not even a joke. It was nothing more than a group of farmers carrying hoes.

Small fights.

"That's right, let's wait until he knocks open the gate of Longship Castle." Li Qi was a little impatient, he completely lost the idea of ​​chatting with this group of abnormal people: "But you stopped a baron in the kingdom today pass!"

He is not very old, but when he glanced at the ashen faces of the "militiamen", it was like a sharp knife, making them shrink their necks in fright.

"I can think this is a provocation to a baron," Li Qi said, "Maybe, you want to start a war with Porcupine Collar?"

Speak out as war begins.

The soldiers behind Li Qi drew out their weapons one after another.

Clang clang!
The weapon gleamed in the sun.

"I, I didn't know you were an adult." Black Fang grimaced. His task was to stop passers-by. If it was a caravan, he would grab some food as Baron Vodou. If he couldn't beat them, he would tell them , it is under the management of Baron Vodou.

I don’t know the tenth Mr. Bastard, the current situation is not good, the people under him have nothing to eat, and there are still a group of people running away. Now it is hard to support.

They were just farmers before, and now let them declare war on a baron?It's not bad that they didn't scare the pee. Being able to resist kneeling and kowtowing is their greatest loyalty to Mr. Bastard.

Oh, someone has already knelt down.

"Now you know." Li Qi smiled as he looked at the people kneeling on the ground.

"Get out of the way, or I don't mind hanging something from the tree." Li Qi looked at the forest in the distance, and said with a smile: "Do you know Sunny Doll?"

Farmers don't know Earth's sunny dolls, but that doesn't stop them from being terrified.

"Yes, make way, make way!"

Black Fang yelled, and a group of people quickly moved the rotten wood blocking the road to let the team pass.

Li Qi ignored them.

Probably when he comes back, there will be another group of people blocking the way.

Only the Baroness of Longship Castle in special circumstances would be restricted by this unreasonable and rascal-like method.

After Li Qi's team left, Hei Fang patted his chest: "Phew, I was scared to death, I thought he was going to chop off my head."

"Those soldiers, you didn't see that the knife is brighter than the mirror!"

"If we didn't give way just now, maybe they are all dead now."

They congratulate themselves for making the right choice.

"Block the road again!" Black Fang shouted, "We must get enough food for Lord Wodu today! Let everyone be full."

No matter how hungry they are, Mr. Bastard's team will starve to death without fighting.

"Yes!" When it comes to food, they feel much more refreshed.

Because Li Qi blocked the way this time, he lost the mood to appreciate the scenery.

After another few days of rushing, they came to Shuijian.

The wide river separates the east and west banks.

Although the group of illegitimate children made a lot of noise, they didn't dare to make trouble at the pier of Shuijian. This place not only concerns the interests of Longship Castle, but also the interests of other lords. No matter how stubborn the illegitimate children and the little nobles behind them are, they dare not come here come to grief.

Shipping operations are still operating normally.

The subordinates went to negotiate the price, and rented several barges to allow Li Qi's carriage, horses, goods and soldiers to cross the river.

Taking a boat from Shuijian Wharf and walking along the tributaries is faster and more comfortable than walking.

The food on the boat surprised the servant and two followers, because they found that the people on the boat also ate seafood. Although they later found out that it was river fish, they looked nothing like them, but they were all shelled and meaty.

Sometimes human cognition is limited to what one wants to know, even if one knows one may be mistaken.

It was rare for Li Qi to eat fish.

Although you can get fish by catching the sea, those fish that die on the beach will not be served on the baron's table.

The stewed fish didn't add too much seasoning, but the taste was very good.

After two days on the boat, we finally landed.

Once on land, Li Qi couldn't help but let out a long breath. He was still shaking a little while walking on the ground. He rested on the spot for a while before continuing on his way.

Starting from Porcupine Collar, passing through Pig Ridge Valley, Shuijiandi, and then arriving at Lintawan.

It's been half a month, but the speed is still faster by boat, otherwise it may take longer.

Then they have to drive for a while.

On the way, the environment has changed significantly, the vegetation is more lush, and there are a lot of lakes with accumulated water.

"The resources are so good, it makes people jealous," Li Qi sighed.

Berries grew in vast expanses of untended fields.

In some lakes, there are big fish swimming by.

There is simply no way to starve to death in this place.

In comparison, the porcupine collar is really too barren and poor, and the more you look at it, the more jealous you become.

Rare birds flew over and landed in the water, the greedy Li Qi drooled enviously.

When it was getting dark, Li Qi arranged to camp in place to rest.

A few soldiers took off their shoes and went into the river to catch fish. After receiving Li Qi's nod, Carrot and Little Joel also took off their shoes and rolled up their trouser legs and rushed in.

After a while, Carrot and Little Joel came over each holding several native silverbacks.

Use reeds to pierce the gills of the fish. The fish has a mouth, the gills are shaking, and the tail flicks twice from time to time.

"My lord!" The teenagers showed off their trophies.

"Grilled fish today." Li Qi nodded.

Although the transportation is inconvenient and the surrounding facilities are not perfect, the environment is very good and it is more suitable for tourism than Earth.

Fire drives away the chill.

Li Qi instructed his subordinates to grill the fish, and other soldiers came over to learn. Fires were lit one by one, and then the fragrance wafted away.

Veterans often fight wars and cook for themselves, so basic cooking skills are still available.

There is also a fire pile built by other teams nearby, so don't worry too much about safety.

Falling asleep after eating, here Li Qi has completely disconnected from the porcupine collar. He can be sure that the farthest distance to hold the corpse is in the water stream.

Rest at night and travel during the day, Greenwood Castle is already in sight.
