Lord of Rot

Chapter 476 She gave me the back door key (62 words) (page 13)

The lively Tieshi City is worthy of the name of a holy place. Even in the cold winter, there is no shortage of tourists who come here.

Two travelers, who were obviously not from Dongxia, were queuing up at the gate of the town while talking with weird accents.

"At this speed, I'm afraid I won't be able to get in before dark, and the door will be closed at night. Should we sleep outside?" They complained about the troublesome speed of the inspection: "They seem to be planning to stay up until the time comes. When the city gate closes, then lock us all out!"

The winter sun is indeed warm on the body, but those who come to Tieshicheng have been traveling for several days and are already exhausted.

There was a constant buzz and quarrel in the crowd.

One of the two people suddenly asked: "Are you really sure?"

The other nodded: "Of course, I was sure the first time I saw her that I must marry her back."

"How old is she?"

"How do I know this? I just know what she looks like, hey!"

"what for?"

"How do I know this? I just know what she looks like, hey!"

"Give way, give way!" Someone was pushing and coming from behind. The two people who were talking excitedly were disturbed. They turned around angrily. Just when they were about to yell, they saw soldiers in full armor walking towards them with long swords in their hands. The setting sun The afterglow coated the armor with golden light, which was so bright that it hurt the eyes.

The insults that rushed to his lips were swallowed down.

The crowd was automatically dispersed, watching the team enter the gate of Iron Stone City.

"Which noble is it from?" The two of them put their heads together and whispered. They had never seen the porcupine flag in their memory, but everyone was curious.

"Coming from out of town?" The man in front of the queue turned around and asked when he heard the two talking.

The two of them nodded: "He's from Feixiang Valley."

"That's Baron Porcupine." The man in front lowered his voice: "He has a fierce reputation, so speak softly to avoid being noticed by him, otherwise you will be dead."

Porcupine Baron? I've heard of it, but it's too far away from Feixiang Valley and I'm not familiar with it.

"How bad is it?" the two asked curiously.

The man in front had an expression that said, "I don't want to say it, but since you asked sincerely, I will tell you with mercy." He cleared his throat and lowered his voice: "Do you know the Bill family of the monkey leader?"

"I've heard of it" In fact, the two of them didn't know much about the nobility at all, but they knew very well that if they wanted to know interesting gossip, they had to be good friends.

"Deadly." The man glared and said in a horrifying voice: "Baron Porcupine also led an army and directly razed the castle to the ground."

"hiss--!"

Have you ever heard of castle attack and defense? Is there anyone who can demolish a castle?

"Why are they fighting?" one person asked.

The man still looked like he had mastered the secret: "I heard that it was because Baron Porcupine fell in love with the three ladies of the Monkey Leader and wanted to capture them all to be his female pets. The Monkey Leader did not agree, so... But I heard that those three The young lady is now his female favorite."

"Does Tiegu know?" the man asked again.

The two were surprised: "I know, could it be that Baron Porcupine also..."

"Yes, Baron Porcupine massacred the entire castle, killing thousands of people, and then directly robbed the Iron Valley and became the Lord of the Iron Valley."

"The Duke doesn't care? The King doesn't care?"

"What the hell?" the man curled his lips disdainfully: "Do you know about the Monkey Island Tuna Family in the sea?"

The two of them shook their heads together, saying that the Baron and the others had heard of a name, but the Knight family really didn't know anything about it.

"If you inquire carefully, you will know that the Tuna family has taken refuge with the eldest prince."

"Is the Tuna family wiped out?"

"No, but it's almost the same. He was almost destroyed at that time. It was the eldest prince who asked Baron Porcupine for mercy, and Baron Porcupine reluctantly gave him some face."

"Hiss——!" The two of them didn't know how many times they sucked in the cold air. They just felt that Baron Porcupine was really a born murderer.

“It’s not over yet”

Seeing that the two of them looked horrified, the man hummed with satisfaction: "Do you know anything about the desert?"

"Desert, I have heard about it" Feixiang Valley is closer to the desert than Dongxia.

"I remember," one of them exclaimed, causing everyone in the queue to look over. He shrank his neck in embarrassment, and then lowered his voice and whispered, "I remember that last year there was a man named Blood Sand Lord who unified the desert. , even the Earl of Buffalo was killed.”

"Why do I remember that the one who rules the desert is Princess Sophia's daughter?" Another person scratched his head.

"Lord Blood Sand must be Baron Porcupine," the Dongxia man said with great certainty, although he had never heard of the Desert War. The story was too far away to reach ordinary people's ears: "What's going on with Princess Sophia?" ?”

The three of them exchanged the rumors and intelligence they had heard with each other, eager to make an alliance through blood and kowtow to become sworn brothers.

I don't know if it was because of Baron Porcupine's visit just now, but the guard soldiers who had been lazily checking suddenly speeded up. They were able to enter Iron Stone City before dark, but they began to complain that the speed suddenly increased and they couldn't enjoy the conversation.

……

Li Qi felt a little sad when he came to Iron Stone Castle after a long time. At the beginning, he only wanted to use Iron Stone City to sell small pills and earn a few gold days to live a good life.

The castle has not changed, but I am different.

The attendants held the horse for him.

"Sir, please come this way. The room has been prepared for you." The valet came over on his own initiative.

He nodded slightly: "Okay, let's lead the way."

When entering the castle, Li Qi unexpectedly met several nobles who looked familiar to them, and they made no secret of their goodwill.

Some unfamiliar faces made no secret of their hostility towards Li Qi. He could easily tell which part belonged to the nobles of Baron Simon and which part belonged to Baron Frye.

After arriving at the room, the leading manservant left quickly. The other man said he would come over to lead the way in a while, so he was not in a hurry.

After changing his dress and tidying up briefly, Li Qi sat on a chair and meditated.

Time flew by because of this.

"Sir, the dance is about to start. I will take you there." There was a knock on the door outside, and it was the voice of the maid.

Li Qi opened the door. It wasn't the previous manservant who came to inform him, and he didn't think it was strange. It could only be due to lack of manpower.

Today's dance has a great background. The strong alliance between the Simon and Fry families indicates that Baron Simon has tied up the eldest prince's warship, and his loyal prince, the Duke of Dongxia, has also married his daughter to the eldest prince. prince.

So, no matter who you want to hook up with, you will come to the dance.

From the point of view of the nobles, no matter how many victories Li Qi fought for the Duke, Baron Simon was definitely more loyal than Li Qi, because he had completely become the task of the eldest prince's faction.

Li Qiqi married Lintawan. Not long ago, the old crocodile family in Lintawan was trying their best to escape from the East Gorge. They were real oath-breakers.

The sky had completely darkened, and I followed the maid hurriedly through the corridors of the castle.

Li Qi looked at Iron Stone City outside the window. The star-spotted firelight reflected the prosperity of this big town, but it was far behind compared with the Porcupine Collar at night. Now the Porcupine Collar does not skimp on lights at night.
