Lord of Rot

Chapter 484 The Undefeated Golden Bear (6000 words) (Page 13)

Li Qi let go and left the carriage window open.

The two were silent, but after a moment of pause, Li Qi turned and left on horseback.

He wanted to get to the towns near the royal capital as soon as possible, and there were still many important things to do.

Hurrying slowly, we finally reached our destination before it got completely dark.

On the central street of the town, pedestrians stopped and looked at Li Qi, who was wearing plate armor, and the troops behind him, and they all speculated on his identity.

Li Qi rode his horse and looked around. The dim sky did not affect his vision. He glanced at the onlookers. The appearance of the people in the central part was slightly different from that of Dongxia, and their cheekbones were generally higher.

The soldiers dispersed the crowd, and they settled in an inn.

"Protect Miss Evanjielin," Li Qi said to the soldiers, "There is only the last day left. After tomorrow, everyone will be rewarded!"

Write the check and let the golden stallion pay for it himself.

"Yes, sir!" the soldiers were excited.

We set out in February and arrived at the end of March.

Although the leisurely journey is like a spring outing, people's spirits are also very tired after a long time.

But at the thought of receiving the reward, all fatigue disappeared.

If you give me enough money, I will give you my life.

"Yeah" Li Qi nodded, and then left Luozu Inn alone. He wanted to go out for a walk.

As expected of a town close to the royal capital, life is prosperous and most people have smiles on their faces.

Vendors setting up stalls occupied a street.

Although the road paved with stone bricks is not as good as the Porcupine collar, the manpower and material resources spent are definitely several times more than that of the Porcupine collar.

He suddenly stopped and saw a little boy in tattered clothes running over with a runny nose, looking up at Li Qi: "Someone is looking for you."

"Okay, take me there."

The little boy led the way, and Li Qi followed him. After turning left and right, he entered an ordinary house.

Knock on the door with a special rhythm and the door will open.

"Come in," the little boy said to Li Qi and went in first.

Li Qi followed him in, and the door behind him was closed. Li Qi looked back and found that the door was closed by a little girl in ragged clothes, with fear written all over her gray face.

The doors and windows inside the houses were tightly closed, there was no light, and candles were lit for lighting.

And a familiar face stood there and looked at him respectfully: "Good night, sir!"

Li Qi looked around at the children standing around him and said, "Alan, it seems that you have completed your task well."

"They all come from the same background as me." Allen looked at the children and said, "Surviving with difficulty, they are like rats in the Rat Alley. They struggle all their lives and never see hope. Serving for you is their chance to change their destiny. !The only chance!"

The children in ragged clothes looked at Li Qi eagerly. They also knew that a chance to change their destiny was in the person in front of them.

"Alan, you are responsible for getting these poor children to join us, tell them what they can do and what they cannot do," Li Qi said, "and then prepare a file for each of them when they have to leave the capital. , they can go to any place in my territory to start a new life, this is my promise.”

"Yes!" Allen said excitedly: "Thank you for your kindness, sir!"

The children, who failed to understand what they were about to get, just lowered their heads along with Allen.

Li Qi took out five golden days from his body: "Buy some things so the children can eat something good."

After seeing the money, the children's eyes really started to brighten, and they truly believed what it meant to change their destiny, at least they would not be hungry in the future.

"All the children in Stinky Rat Alley can join." Li Qi looked at the children and said, "Don't worry, whether there are thousands or tens of thousands of you, I can afford to support you!"

……

The next day, Li Qi mounted his horse and led the team to the royal capital.

The city wall towers into the clouds, while Mama City, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, is as low as an earth wall in front of it.

"It is said that Wangcheng covers an area of ​​at least 350 porcupine castles, which is equivalent to one-fifth of the area of ​​porcupine collars, and has a population of 40."

The entire central capital has a population of 150 million. As the most livable and prosperous area, the population is concentrated here.

Big cities are more able to attract people to settle down, while down-and-out areas cannot retain people.

After actually entering the royal capital, Li Qi felt what it meant for a country baron to enter the city.

There are people coming and going on the street, and all the people are crowded.

The noble carriage and the beggar begging along the street seemed to be pressed together by invisible big hands, which looked very inconsistent.

Behind the drunk man urinating on the street corner, an elegant lady holding up her skirt passed by with her swan neck raised, not looking sideways.

Even if they are forced together, everyone can clearly identify their own class and will never exceed it.

Looking at the soldiers wearing gorgeous armor with golden bears printed on their shields, Li Qi sighed in his heart: "The standing army has about 15000 people. He is worthy of being a king."

Li Qi's current apparent total population in the territory only exceeds 10,000 people. Even if all the people are soldiers, they can't compare with the number of soldiers in the royal capital.

"My lord, I am here to greet the team by order of the king!" A man riding a war horse, wearing a gorgeous golden bear plate armor and a cloak came to Li Qi. Without dismounting, he bent down to say hello.

"Your Excellency, is Sir Arne Keyin?" Reach asked, looking at the man who took off his helmet.

"Yes, Lord Li Qi!" Being recognized, the other party seemed to take it for granted.

It is said that there are 30 captains in the internal defense force of the royal city, each with 500 elite soldiers. The captains are all taken by members of the king's close factions, such as Yan Kein, whose father and King Boer II have the same grandfather .

What really made Li Qi recognize Yan Kein was his relatively famous nickname.

There are wrong names, there are no wrong nicknames.

Yann Kein is known as the 'Three-Eyed Lahan's Eagle' because he has a large mole under his left eye, which makes him look like he has three eyes.

He doesn't care about his appearance and is even proud of his nickname.

"I heard that your archery skills are superb and you can always hit the mark." Li Qi and Yan Kein rode forward side by side.

"I once shot down two flying eagles with one arrow in Feixiang Valley," Yan Kein said proudly: "In Feixiang Valley, Lahan's eagle is a bird domesticated for hunting. It has very good eyesight. The families who have domesticated Lahan eagles in Feixiang Valley will basically not go hungry, and many families will domesticate Lahan eagles in large numbers."

You're from the capital, why do you want to be nicknamed Feixianggu?

Yan Kein seemed to have noticed Li Qi's doubtful gaze and explained: "My wife is from Feixiangu. They respect the eagle god and love the Lahan eagle."

"Oh, that's it." Li Qi nodded.

So Lahan Eagle should be the local "stinky treasure" and "my dog" in Feixiang Valley.

It's not what Li Qi thought. Since Lahan's eagles will be tamed in large numbers, it doesn't seem to have a good reputation.

It's like saying a man is like a wolf, aloof and fierce.
