Lord of Rot

Chapter 277 The Knight Arrives

Although Li Qi demolished Hawkwood's mine, Hawkwood instead of being angry, thanked Li Qi repeatedly.

Li Qi waved his hands repeatedly: "We are all friends, I'm just doing a favor."

"Hahaha, yes, friend!"

Li Qi was left to attend the banquet that night.

The Baron of the Three Forks family consists of a father and a son, a daughter-in-law and a daughter, and a husband and wife.

Li Qi's evaluation is: lively.

When Li Qi rescued Agnes last time, she hoped to have something super-friendship with Li Qi because of fear and anxiety.

Now it seems like nothing happened, and she is doing her fiancée's duties wholeheartedly.

That's good.

After the banquet, Li Qi returned to the room to rest.

He hasn't finished reading the rune experiment diary yet, and he is destined to have no sleep tonight.

Until dawn, Li Qi sat at his desk and stretched.

He has already read the contents of the rune experiment log.

"Whether the runes can communicate with souls can be used on dead corpses and ghouls still needs experimentation."

If he can, the power he holds in his hands will obviously increase again.

In addition, the method of making runes is also recorded above.

Words can give power, but it does not give power to the body just as it is written. There are also quite cumbersome steps.

"Perhaps I can tell Thomas Scholar how to make the runes. By analogy, his magic scroll can probably be made...probably."

Li Qi has always been skeptical about the innovative ability of Thomas scholars. He must have talent and learning, but the things he produces are always difficult to describe.

After getting up, Li Qi washed up briefly and went to the restaurant.

When having breakfast with the Hawkwood family, Reacher mentioned the apprentice again, and easily obtained an apprenticeship in herbalism.

As long as the other party is willing to leave with Li Qi, Hawkwood has no way to stop him.

"drive!"

The fast horse carried Li Qi away from Three Fork River Fort.

Vic, the herbalist apprentice, obviously didn't know how to ride a horse. He hugged the horse's neck and yelled "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh".

"Relax, Vic!" Li Qi let go of the reins and said with a smile: "If you hold the horse's neck hard, it will throw you off when it hurts."

Vic asked: "S-Sir, what should I do?"

"The first step is to open your eyes."

Receiving a new scholar apprentice made Li Qi feel very good, not to mention that he would be given priority in purchasing the magic alchemy materials from Trifork River Castle in the future.

"Ahhhh!"

"Hahaha" Li Qi smiled: "The second step is, don't wet your pants."

After herbalist apprentice Vic learned to ride a horse like a duck, he was finally free to chat with Li Qi.

The main thing is that the horse will automatically follow Li Qi and he only needs to be careful not to be thrown off the horse.

Li Qi asked: "Can you make potions?"

Herbal apprenticeship means having some experience in refining potions.

"Understand a little bit" Vic nodded.

"Can you make lucky potions?"

If he had the talent to mass-produce lucky potions, Li Qi could completely embark on the path of Long Aotian, who is domineering, beauties throw themselves into his arms, and famous generals bow down to him.

"No" Vic shook his head.

"It doesn't matter if you don't know how. You can learn slowly in the future." Li Qi was not in a hurry. He said, "Do you have much research on herbal medicine? Ordinary medicine."

Vic nodded: "I mainly learn these from scholars."

"Well, I happen to have a research project for you. I gave it to the pharmacists before, but they were confused and couldn't find anything."

"What research?" Vic knew that Li Qi was very powerful and had even avenged his teacher.

But a lord cannot know everything.

"Penicillin," Li Qi said, "When we get back, I'll ask you to talk to the pharmacist directly."

Although magic potion can save people, a bottle of magic potion can easily cost more than ten silver months or even more than ten golden days. Even ordinary small nobles cannot afford to drink it, so how can it be given to free people to drink.

Moreover, the refining of magic potion is too troublesome, the output is extremely low, and there is no possibility of promotion.

Li Qi has always wanted to make penicillin, but was unable to reproduce it due to his own knowledge level. Now that he has an herbal medicine apprentice, the medical sector can also fill the gap.

In the seemingly peaceful porcupine collar, someone gets sick every two or three days on average.

Even though Li Qi emphasized that tetanus, inflammation and infections often occur, fortunately the symptoms are usually not serious, and they can be overcome by just resisting and taking some medicine.

But Li Qi believed that the reason why there were no large-scale deaths was because he explicitly prohibited the use of blood therapy.

……

Back to Porcupine Collar.

Li Qi immediately arranged for the herbal apprentice Vic to hand over to the pharmacists. He planned to form a medical team with Vic as the center in the future.

Perhaps hospitals can be further developed in the future.

Thousands of people's diseases always need to be cured.

But we still have to see if Vic has the real stuff, otherwise everything will be just a fart.

Then Li Qi handed over the "Rune Experiment Log" to Thomas Scholars, hoping that Thomas Scholars would be able to comprehend by analogy and give some inspiration.

Don't be suspicious when you employ people, don't use them when you are suspicious.

Besides, with him watching, it would be impossible for Thomas scholars to conduct human experiments.

In the blink of an eye, it was already mid-February, the weather was getting warmer, and the porcupine collar was finally operating at full capacity.

Thick smoke began to drift from the brick kiln factory again, and work had to be done for a while for the future housing of more than 4,000 slaves.

Two days ago, a raven flew from Sanchahe Fort and told Li Qi that he had contacted a group of slaves. The amount he wanted cost about 400 gold days, and if the number of people who died on the road did not exceed two-tenths, he had to settle the payment in full. .

Gao Xue City is indeed overbearing, are you amazing with half a million slaves?

Li Qi wrote back a letter, confirming that he was fine and had no objections, so just come directly.

"It won't arrive until April or May?" Li Qi looked at the reply from Raven.

"Not counting children, there are four thousand people, most likely transported by ship."

For example, the Porcupine can theoretically only carry 100 people, but if it is packed hard, a thousand people can be packed in. If it is replaced by Sai Sange, I am afraid that four thousand people can be packed in, and a row can be hung on the side of the ship. .

If we set out now, the two-month voyage will span half of the Lurea continent from the desert to the East Gorge.

"grown ups!"

Just when Li Qi was thinking about where he was in April, a cry brought him back to his senses.

"What's wrong?" He looked up at Pitts who walked in.

Recently, Pitts' ability to communicate with animals is gradually improving, and he has also entered secondary development.

It may also be that with proper nutrition, people become somewhat spiritual.

"A noble knight is leading the porcupine."

"Noble knight? Okay, I understand, you did a good job."

Li Qi casually picked up the cake plate on the desk and handed it to Pitts: "After eating, send the plate to the kitchen."

"Yes!" Pitts happily took the plate.

Not a single bite of the cake was eaten, it was all hers.

This precious cake cannot be bought even if you have money. It was specially ordered by Li Qi to be made with extraordinary honey.

It's not that Li Qi is suddenly extravagant, but that when the weather gets warmer, he will start taking Ake to the island to cultivate extraordinary bees. These extraordinary honeys are of little use, and the effect is not as good as that of crab meat, which is refreshing. The effect is optional.

Soon, the knight Pitts was talking about also came to the Porcupine Collar.

Unexpectedly, he turned out to be an acquaintance, Lacey Sith, the extraordinary knight who lost to Li Qi on the field.
