Chapter 10 The corpse is rotten

He stood up with the table, and as soon as he left the study, he followed up: "Sir!"

"I'll go back and rest," Li Qi said.

At the door of the bedroom, although the male servant wanted to help Li Qi make the bed, he was rejected. There was a tombstone inside. This thing must not be favored by the Four Gods.

Close the door, Li Qi put his hand on the tombstone and the crypt opened.

He lit a torch and walked into the crypt.

"This smell..."

The more you go inside, the more pungent the smell becomes.

The source of the smell is the corpses of four farmers on the ground. They have been dead for two or three days. The smell has been magnified several times in the narrow and unventilated underground passage.

Li Qi wanted to burn the body in the crypt with a fire, but considering that the only air circulating entrance and exit was in his bedroom, smoke might also fill his room.

It is not difficult to deal with the corpses at night. Only Li Qi and his teacher James live in the castle. When there were many people in the past, there were stepmothers and younger brother Leo, butler chef and servant rest in several wooden houses outside the castle. When the baron shakes the bell, the servant will come here as soon as possible.

So it is not troublesome to ask James to find a place in the castle to dig a hole and bury the body.

Compared to the corpse, Li Qi cared more about another thing.

The corpse will rot!

He opened the Necromancer's note and it did record the problem of rot. Lifeless corpses will rot, which is inevitable. They are not like living people who will metabolize and their hearts will no longer beating.

However, necromancers have recorded two ways to suppress decay, one is to use preservatives and the other is to eat fresh meat and blood.

Unlike the industrial preservatives in the 21st century, it records a magic preservative that can keep dead bodies alive and even make them healthier and stronger than or even healthier.

The main material is still salt, and other materials include snail shells, pig eye grass, finger vine cores, and some messy things.

Blood and flesh are simpler, but the premise is fresh, that is, throwing a live pig or a living person in front of a dead body and letting it chew on it.

"It's better to make preservatives. The materials you make are not difficult to find..." He rejected the second bloody way. Whether there are few living people or few live pigs in the porcupine collar, it will attract great attention. After all, it's too poor here.

...

Li Qi was eating breakfast on the dining table. He was planning to go to the kitchen in the name of visiting work, and give a little advice on the chef's cooking skills, such as soy milk and fried dough sticks. Even if it was not good, he had to teach the chef to pickle pickles. He was not sure how long he could last.

There is thick soup in one cup and ale in the other cup. People don’t drink water because most people will drain feces into the water. Drinking turbid dirty water will cause dysentery.

The servant Pitchfork walked over at this time: "Ri'an, my sir."

After Li Qi made the request, no one could enter his room at will now, and the male servant was assigned a new task to go out to collect materials for making preservatives.

If there are not enough staff, everyone around them has multiple jobs.

The male servant did not recognize words. Li Qi only emphasized several herbs. If they could not find one, they would arrange for the butler Saimen to go to Tieshi City to buy it.

"Most of the materials you need can be found in the porcupine collar, and a small part may take a little time," said Prawford. "I've asked the farmer to look for Pig Ridge Valley, where there might be."

From the Porcupine Leader to Tieshi City, the road is northwest.

In fact, the Pig Ridge Valley has a large range, from the north to the northwest of the Porcupine Corps, and the territory of Baron Liqi is separated from the sea-to-sharp corner of the East Gorge.

The porcupine leads hundreds of miles away are all woods, with beasts appearing in it, and there are also many wild game.

"You're doing a good job, pitchfork" Li Qi nodded.

"This is my honor, my lord." The servant half-kneeled on the ground.

Li Qi did not emphasize that the male servant would change his kneeling behavior. Although he was not used to others kneeling down to himself at any time, he was not prepared to challenge the aristocratic system, especially when he was also aristocratic.

"One more thing, sir," said the servant: "I saw Mr. Duke last night, he dug a hole in your garden, and this morning I found there were four more graves there."

I have to say that a "dad" has a great effect. Before he rewarded him, even the loyal servant Pufffor would never dare to say bad things about a wolf killer in front of Li Qi.

Rewards can be exchanged for short-term loyalty and can strengthen loyalty.

"I arranged it." Li Qi didn't care about the leak. As long as no one found the most fundamental and important secret, he said: "Teacher James buried the farmers who followed me to explore the crypt. They died for me and will also be buried in my castle. After death, they will continue to protect me. Anyway, the garden has been abandoned, so it is better to play a practical role."

I used it for me during my lifetime and continued to drain after death. In this world, this is glory.

He never thought of returning the bodies of the four farmers, with golden scars on their bodies and broken into pieces by sickles. There were too many problems, so he would just bury them directly.

The pitchfork trembled slightly, but he made a big mistake by making a report. Now he should not think about rewards, but beg for punishment not to be too serious. No noble likes a verbal servant.

But with Baron Liqi's weak and introverted personality, perhaps...

"It's done well," Liqi said: "I can feel your loyalty, a pitchfork."

Pitchfork raised his head in surprise, but he was not blamed but praised. He vowed that he would keep an eye on everyone from now on! And he would definitely get the silver moon reward of his own!

"Praise you, my sir!"

Li Qi finished the breakfast with difficulty. The freshly baked white bread tasted very good, which was also the motivation for him to finish this breakfast.

My own territory needs a cow, but egg flower soup can also meet the needs before that, as long as you find a chef and give him a little advice.

In my previous life, Li Qi was also a housewife, and I could still do it in the ordinary family. Now it is autumn, maybe I can consider hanging sausages instead of the world's rough and technically unstable blood sausages, the kind of fat meat that knead the meat together and tied it with a rope to fry it directly.

"We inspect the territory today," Li Qi said: "We also go to the homes of those farmers, they died for me after all."

The housekeeper Saimen immediately said, "You are such a merciful and generous lord."

Compassion and generosity are not good words for the lord, but Li Qi accepted it with a smile. He hoped that he would be a merciful and generous lord. As long as he guaranteed his rights, he would not mind that the civilians in the territory would live a good life, which might be completely different from the local nobles.

The baron's reward made the people in the castle work hard. Today he did not see the feces in the corner of his castle. Maybe it was because a servant who was too lazy to go to the wild to go to the toilet to be reported, or maybe it was because the maid who was responsible for cleaning up was quick hands and feet.

The groom had already brought the horse that Li Qi often rode.

The horses of Clarence were born by the maiden horse of Leald, who is now in the horse shed, and one of his children followed Leo to East Harbor City, and the rest were in Lich's castle.

Without the need for a servant's support, Li Qi stepped on his feet and stepped on his horse.

As the son of a warlike baron, his physical fitness is much higher than that of ordinary people. He masters all horse riding, archery, swordsmanship, and guns, but his mastery is not good.

But now he has gained a little instinct from a wolf killer and has made considerable improvements in swordsmanship.
