Lord of Rot

Chapter 157 Deadly potions are difficult to grow (page 12)

Li Qi nodded: "Okay, Mr. Mavey, Mr. Erault, you must have something important to do when you visit Porcupine Castle after dark?"

"Yes, sir," Ma Wei replied: "One of our friends has disappeared, probably in this area. I would like to ask if you have seen white hair dressed like us."

"I haven't seen it before" Li Qi shook his head.

"You didn't even ask the people under you, how do you know you haven't seen it before!" Erro couldn't help but said.

Ma Wei immediately went to pull his companion's arm. Now that the two of them were closing the door and waiting to be beaten, if they spoke rudely, did they really intend to fight their way out? If we have no grievances and can resolve them through chat, don't do anything.

Li Qi asked, "Do you two think your appearance is special?"

"Of course!" Aero replied.

Ma Wei also nodded, it must be special, otherwise they wouldn't have been targeted as soon as they entered the porcupine collar.

And because of their white hair, they are often called monsters and ostracized by others when passing through other villages and towns.

It is still thanks to the church that white hair has become synonymous with monsters.

Li Qi replied: "So, I haven't seen it."

If you two have such dazzling gray hair, my subordinates know to report it. Do my subordinates not report it when your gray-haired friends arrive?

"Maybe he's disguised." Ma Wei opened his black robe, revealing the long sword at his waist.

Swish-!

The uniform sound of drawing swords sounded in the hall.

Fifty or sixty soldiers drew their weapons as soon as Ma Wei showed his sword.

Aero also lifted off his black robe and grabbed the long sword at his waist.

"It looks very similar to this sword." Ma Wei took off the long sword tied to his waist and held the sword in both hands: "Please take a look."

Quick Edge walked over and grabbed the sword, pulled it out first, checked it was correct, and handed it to Li Qi after making sure there were no small tricks.

Li Qi nodded, and the soldiers retracted their swords in unison.

Aero also drew his sword and took it back.

Ma Wei breathed a sigh of relief. He had never seen soldiers moving so neatly. They were elite. They were definitely elite!

Fortunately, I came with good intentions and did not sneak in directly through the window, otherwise it would be very troublesome.

Seeing Li Qi observing the sword, Ma Wei immediately said: "As you can see, this is a silver steel sword, the weapon used by people like us, silver steel can cause damage to monsters more easily, maybe that one The caster will tell you this."

It is very similar to the silver steel sword that Li Qi got in the griffin's lair before. There are some differences in the details. There is also a sentence written on the sword using the acid etching method, but it is not the sentence "In the face of death, what do you want to do?" What to say” but “death will come”.

Hearing Ma Wei's words, Li Qi was also confused.

Spellcaster?

I am the only one in the whole castle who knows magic.

Oh, this group of people thought that the spell caster was someone else. Unknown to them, he was the young lord sitting in front of them.

But there is no need to explain, just make mistakes.

"I haven't seen your friend," Li Qi said, "but I've seen a sword, very similar to this one."

The two looked at Li Qi excitedly.

"Are you sure?"

"Of course!" Li Qi nodded.

Silver steel swords are very valuable, but the most expensive ones only cost a few gold days. Some can be bought with silver moons. In addition to the material of the weapon, it also depends on which famous craftsman made it, as well as its appearance and previous use. Who is the person and so on.

Brand value and celebrity effect are greater than the actual effect, unless it is a rare item.

"I found that sword on a cliff lair, and it is now in my treasure house. I can return it to you when I find that sword." Li Qi said, "If you want to see that sword Lair, I can take you there tomorrow."

"Thank you very much!" Ma Wei bowed.

Arrow also bowed awkwardly, and they were notorious enough for being able to talk things out amicably rather than fight a fight.

"I will arrange accommodation for you two," Li Qi said. "It's getting late. We can talk tomorrow."

"Praise for your generosity, my lord."

The two of them had no objections to this. The lord was already very friendly, so they should be more sensible.

The next day, after having a meal at the tavern, the two came to the castle.

Li Qi took out the silver steel sword and handed it to the two of them, then rode a horse and took the two of them to the Pig Backbone Valley... of course, taking a circle through the strait instead of going directly through the dense forest, lest they see the magic potion. .

After pointing them to the location of the griffin's lair that had been raided, Li Qi began to think wildly under the tree again.

Without entertainment, random thoughts will consume a lot of his time.

"Aristocratic estates usually have a golden boulevard. Should I build one too? I can take a walk every now and then, especially in autumn. It's a great tool for picking up girls. No... Do I still need to take the initiative to chase women now?"

Baron Porcupine, whose economy has started to take off, is reluctant to eat soft rice.

After a while, Ma Wei and Erro came back.

The black robe on his body was dusty from the dirt.

"Sir, I have to tell you that a terrifying griffon once lived in that nest." Ma Wei took a deep breath and said: "Our companion was tracking the griffin, but now he has disappeared with the griffin. I'm afraid He is already in danger, but your territory has escaped a disaster."

Of course Li Qi knew why the griffin disappeared, because it was fumigated by the ignited grass.

As for their companions, it is estimated that they have been digested by the griffins long ago and returned to nature.

"Thank you for your companions' selfless contribution," Li Qi said. "I am saddened that he was killed and I am sorry."

"You can't fight against the griffin," Mawei said. "This is the best result, but we may have to go back disappointed."

"Can we talk about where you are from?" Li Qi said: "Except for your names, I know nothing about you. Maybe we can become friends."

Ma Wei smiled: "This is the first time that a noble lord is willing to be friends with us."

"Don't generalize about everyone." Li Qi shook his head: "Everyone is different. There are good and bad among nobles, and not all farmers are hard-working people. Just like I try my best to develop the porcupine collar, but there are always some people because of some petty things. Xiaoli thinks I owe them.”

Ma Wei knew that the lord must be talking about what happened to the bearded man yesterday.

Based on his experience of traveling all over the country, after comparison, he did find that Porcupine Collar is a small village with a very good environment.

Big towns like Iron Rock City are indispensable for beggars, but in Porcupine Territory everyone has a job and food to eat.

"You are the most kind lord I have ever seen." Ma Wei agreed with Li Qi's words.

What is noble or despicable is always a certain person, not a certain profession.

There are thieves and thieves, right?

"You are not the first to say this." Li Qi was not modest: "I just fulfill the obligations of a lord and make sure everyone has enough to eat."

The chat between the two was quite pleasant, and Erro, who knew he had nothing to say, kept his mouth shut and listened honestly.
