Lord of Rot

Chapter 463 The girl has grown up (page 12)

Li Qi moved very fast, and he originally planned to trick Scholar Tonks into returning to Porcupine Territory with him. On the same day, they boarded the boat from Iron Valley to Porcupine Territory.

The waves are divided by boats.

Also coming back with him was Pitts, the beast whisperer who had been busy in Iron Valley for more than half a year. Unfortunately, the armadillo died. I don't know if the bloodline herbs are too effective, or if they have returned to their ancestors and become some kind of short-lived animals. ancestor.

"Is that the porcupine collar?" Scholar Tonks came to the deck and followed Li Qi's gaze to the distant coast.

The towering watchtower was only as high as a little finger in the eyes of the two of them.

It will take half a day to go back.

"That's right." Li Qi nodded, his eyes full of expectation.

Although his territory has extended from the Porcupine Territory to the Iron Valley, and even to the Water Stream Land, all the way to most of the desert, it is the Porcupine Territory that really gives him a strong sense of belonging. This is where everything started.

It is only the third year of time travel, but how much changes have taken place in myself and the territory, I believe everyone who knows the Porcupine Territory can give the answer.

"I might stay here for a while," Scholar Tonks said, "and I can also help you teach some people."

But I'll leave when I save enough money.

She would definitely not say this. Since he is the leader of a big dog-killing family, he must be more submissive on the surface.

"Thank you very much." Li Qi nodded, not caring about the meaning of the other party's words.

run away?

It doesn't matter, now that Li Qi has brought himself into Huangmao, he will definitely pry her bottom line again.

When you come, don't want to leave!

The ship slowly docked.

Entering December, the weather has become a lot more serious, and the temperature has dropped off a cliff. On the way back, Li Qi had no choice but to wear thicker clothes. Although extraordinary people are not afraid of the cold, they are not afraid of the cold and whether they can Feeling the cold is two different things. His current teeth can chew rocks, but he can't really stop eating dirt three meals a day.

A hut has been built next to the dock. As Li Qi and others disembarked, Lacey Sith, who had already received the raven message, came to greet them personally.

He has grown a beard, and wears a fur coat outside the carefully maintained plate armor. Hanging around his waist is the long sword that Li Qi used when he made him a knight. Compared with when they parted ways, Lacey Sith He is more mature and stable, but too many territorial chores have made his hairline less brave and started to recede.

"Good day, sir!" Lacey looked at Li Qi excitedly.

"Good day." Li Qi hugged Lacey Sith and said, "Although we haven't been apart for long, seeing you makes me feel at ease. Phew... Fortunately, Grant didn't come, otherwise I would have to read the report. Until next year.”

The two looked at each other and laughed.

A porcupine leader joke.

The development of the Porcupine Territory has never left Li Qi's sight, although he spent most of this year away from the territory.

Red brick houses have become the standard throughout the Porcupine Territory, and those mud houses have basically been eliminated, as have even the large dormitories.

Li Qi rode a horse and walked on the smooth road, chatting with Lacey Sith about the recent interesting stories of the nobles.

Eating melon is always people's favorite, especially the marriage relationship of young nobles, which can directly reflect the changes in the power of a territorial lord.

On a larger scale, for example, if the eldest prince and Red Rose are engaged, the eldest prince will gain the support of Dongxia, and it is almost certain that he will become the next king, unless he dies earlier than the king.

Another example is Li Qi. His reputation is big enough, but since the news of his marriage to Lintawan came out, he has now become a new upstart in the East Gorge.

In the past, everyone could express their dissatisfaction secretly by using force because of their junior qualifications and few connections, and even openly expressed dissatisfaction. Li Qi still remembered that the last time he went to the Roaring Fort in Donggang City, he sat in the corner.

But now, no one will say these words anymore.

"...So, Philip refused to be engaged to that lady?"

"That's right." Lacey Sith nodded: "He told the young lady that he might not be able to love her and would not be willing to marry her."

"Then let him steal the marriage," Li Qi said casually.

Lacey looked at his lord in shock.

As a circle of friends, everyone knows that 'Midnight Sun' Philip Cavendish actually likes Miss Red Rose, but now that Red Rose is engaged to the eldest prince, is it a robbery?

That's not a simple robbery.

Both the king and the duke would be furious.

"Hahaha" Li Qi looked at the stunned Lacey and laughed.

"Your joke scared me," Lacey complained, but he also heard that the lord of his family and the eldest prince were not getting along well. It was even more obvious that the tuna family on Monkey Island turned to the eldest prince. The lord just said a few happy words in his mouth.

Li Qi shook his head, kidding? If there was a chance to kill the eldest prince, he would not be polite, because he would definitely attack the tuna family. The porcupine Baron, who was covered in thorns, was robbed on the island. How could he not bite him back hard and bite him to death to satisfy his hatred?

And for the sake of face, the eldest prince will definitely keep the first nobleman who surrenders to him.

Conflict between the two sides is inevitable.

He just wasn't nice to Red Rose, after all, he was her man.

If no one grabs it, you can consider grabbing it yourself in the future.

Cross the widened avenue and come to the square.

A statue belonging to Li Qi has been erected, riding an eagle with spread wings, looking very majestic.

Li Qi sighed that one day he could be like a stone lion.

Having passed the most difficult period of shortage of manpower, the pace of work in Porcupine Collar has gradually slowed down. People can occasionally be seen strolling on the road. A year ago, when it was time to go to work, there was no one on the road.

Regardless of day or night, cold or hot, everyone is working non-stop.

A considerable number of people have never actually seen the lord, or have seen him from a distance, but due to time issues, they have long forgotten what he looked like. These people were all slaves purchased from High Blood City at that time.

So when Li Qi and Lacey arrived side by side on horseback, some people mistakenly thought that some big shot was coming.

"What, that's our lord? So young?"

Such voices kept coming from the crowd, and some people raised their chins proudly: "The Lord is only 20 years old this year! But he is already the most powerful and famous noble in the East Gorge!"

Li Qi walked past the crowd with a smile on his face. He was used to seeing big scenes, and it was no longer like before.

Entering the castle with Li Qi was Scholar Tonks' carriage.

Butler Simon has already led the servants to line up.

There are one row of male servants, one row of maids, cooks, helpers, etc. The total number has exceeded twenty!

And according to Li Qi's observation, quite a few of them are chef apprentices.

"I didn't expect that I had developed so many training strategies. I didn't cultivate a few extraordinary ones, a few craftsmen, but a lot of chefs. Am I cultivating New Oriental chefs in another world?"
