Lord of Rot

Chapter 483 The Road of Escort (4400 words) (Page 12)

Li Qi played an important role in the procession that started from Donggang City and headed to the royal capital.

Representing the "mother's family", it can also be said to be a representative figure of Dongxia.

To this end, the Duke of New East Gorge, Pine Leopold, dispatched fifty cavalrymen, including infantry, logistics, etc. The total number of the entire team was two hundred.

Li Qi only brought his retinue Carrot and the powerful stone of the palace-level corpse.

This trip is expected to take one and a half months, and he will arrive in the royal capital at the end of March. Li Qi's mentality is very stable. With all the current development, each territory can operate on its own, and there are hundreds of corpses secretly providing protection. If there is any problem, He couldn't solve it himself.

The only thing that made Li Qi feel regretful was that Gathrush didn't leave with him, otherwise he really wanted to kill him and then try to make him into a dead body to see what Prince One-Ear's plan was.

Just half a day after leaving Donggang City, the escorting soldiers became familiar with Li Qi: "Sir, do you really have a flying horse?"

"That's right." Li Qi nodded, and there was a rare pride on his face when he mentioned the Rockets. The Rockets were a good partner who followed him in all the battles.

He said: "It takes several days to take a boat from Donggang City to Porcupine Territory. It takes longer to ride a horse, but it only takes a short time to ride it."

"Why didn't you ride over?"

"Nonsense, our team is moving so slowly, your lord's Pegasus flew here in the blink of an eye, how can the team escort us?"

"Hehe, that's true."

The soldiers discussed with great enthusiasm and were full of expectations for this trip. After all, escorting Hong Qiangwei to the royal capital to get married was a pure and beautiful trip. There was no chance of encountering danger along the way, and there was no need to take too much care of the young lady. Hurry up and walk as comfortably as you want. There will be rewards when you get to the place.

"Sir, can you tell me about the time when you attacked the Iron Wall Castle?"

"Sir, how did you use hundreds of people to kill thousands of people?"

"My lord, my lord, you were the champion of the East Gorge martial arts competition at that time. Who else do you think is very strong besides you?"

"Sir, it is said that you rescued Lord Philip at Pebble Castle?"

"grown ups……"

It was not until noon that the team slowly walked forty or fifty miles.

Li Qi finally squeezed out from the surrounding soldiers and came to the huge carriage pulled by three golden horses.

He gently knocked on the car door: "Miss Evanjielin, let's rest on the side of the road for a while and wait until the sun is not so bright before we continue our journey. You can rest under the shade of a tree for a while."

The car door opened, and Hong Qiangwei, who was wearing light makeup and wearing a red braid, was in much better condition than before: "Sir Li Qi, you are really popular."

"It's just people's curiosity." Li Qi shook his head and said it was nothing. "When they get over the excitement, they won't talk anymore."

There is a chef accompanying the team, so the quality of life has not been reduced too much.

Moreover, they mainly take the main roads, and they mainly stay in inns on the way. Red Rose, who has thin skin and tender flesh, is going to get married, not to suffer.

The soldiers ate dry food and some hot rice made with broth made by the chef, while Li Qi followed Red Rose's delicious delicacies that were not very exquisite, but definitely tasted very good.

The weather is a bit cold in February after all, and being stuffed in the car for a long time will make people even more uncomfortable.

Hong Qiangwei was leaning under the tree, being served by a personal maid, while Li Qi was sitting on a stone not far away from her, while his guards removed his armor.

Li Qi held the personal sword "Sword Saw" and looked into the distance, emptying his mind.

It feels good to give myself a vacation.

A raven found Li Qi after circling in the sky, dived down, and landed on his shoulder.

"Carrot! Get something to eat."

"Yes, here it comes!" Carrot quickly tore off a few strands of meat and put them into the raven's mouth.

The raven ate the meat strips and raised his head with satisfaction.

Li Qi read the letter, then wrote another reply and tied it to the raven's foot.

He gently touched the raven's head: "Thank you for your hard work. When you go back, I'll ask Ake to feed you some extraordinary wasp pupae... By the way, Ake doesn't understand. You go find Pitts and ask him Ci will take you to Akke."

The raven spreads its wings and flies away.

"Sir, the meal is ready." The chef respectfully came over with a portion of the meal.

Mince pie took up half the plate, and the other half contained honey pudding, grilled sausages, braised roast steak, and even a large glass of pea soup.

"Thank you." Li Qi had nothing to say about this sumptuous lunch. He knew he was on his way, but he thought he was on a spring outing.

At this rate, it is estimated that we will not be able to leave for three to five days before we have to find villages and towns to replenish supplies.

Li Qi himself is not very resistant to good food and drink. The snakeskin bag he wears is as big as a small house and is filled with various prepared potions, weapons, and even emergency food. After several months of training, No worries at all.

After three or five bites, he devoured the food and found that Red Rose was looking at him, her mouth slightly opened, as if it was the first time he saw such an elegant and edible noble.

Li Qi grinned, but didn't feel anything embarrassed.

Being able to eat is a blessing.

After eating and resting for a while, the team continued on their way.

Li Qi put on the plate armor with the help of his retinue Carrot. With his current physical condition, the weight of the armor was nothing, but after all, it was uncomfortable to move, and handsomeness came at a cost.

In the afternoon, we only walked a total of twenty miles, and we had to camp on the roadside.

Only maids can enter and leave Hongqiangwei's large tent, and there are even female soldiers guarding the door.

Li Qi's tent was next to Red Rose's tent.

His camp was guarded only by Qiang Shi. However, Qiang Shi alone could defeat the two hundred people present. The one he really wanted to protect was Red Rose.

The bonfire was lit. Because Li Qi was not very restrained and Red Rose didn't care about that, it became a good time for the soldiers to brag and chat.

They were paid to travel. No wonder these soldiers were in high spirits when they were selected.

Walking seventy miles a day is not traveling.

Somehow the topic came back to the battle of strength. No matter which world they were in, Guan Gong and Qin Qiong would always be people's favorite.

"The king is known as the Undefeated Golden Bear and the King of Snake Men. He killed the three brothers of Earl White Dragon and forcefully forced Earl White Dragon back to Doon City behind Steel Knife Mountain. He will never dare to go south for the rest of his life!"

The corner of Li Qi's mouth twitched, it was the Snake King again!

After hearing these unexpected things, Li Qi discovered that he was also honored to be ranked among the top experts in the continent. He expressed his great honor for this, but he became the subject of discussion just like "My brother dares to eat shit". It's not a good thing to be proud of, but it feels like being scolded.

The soldiers lacked courage and strong imagination, and always used all kinds of inexplicable things to prove it.

Fortunately, Pole II was the main subject of this discussion.

Li Qi looked around and made sure there was no danger before returning to the camp.

With a team of two hundred people spread out, how could any little thief have the guts to cause trouble?
