Devil on the tip of the tongue

Seeing Ji Heng getting up from the floor holding the rag, the corner of the guard's mouth twitched a few times, and he couldn't help reminding: "Ji Special Assistant, the house in the outer courtyard is cleaned by monsters every day, so you don't need to clean it yourself." clean."

"It's okay, I'm idle anyway, and I'm still sleeping, so it's not convenient for other monsters to come in and clean up." Ji Heng waved his hand. His mother in his previous life had always taught him to do his own things. When hiding in the ruins, he also cleaned their cave as clean as possible, so he and Memorial didn't get sick often.

"Please wait a moment, I'll go change clothes." After Ji Heng finished speaking, he turned around and went to change clothes.

The weather in Sunset City is very hot, so the clothes worn by the monsters here are not the same as those in the magic capital. The pants and tops are looser, and the fabric of the clothes is softer and more breathable. I don’t know what it is made of. He put on his clothes, took the souvenir out of the cloak, put the cloak on first, and then put the little monster sleeping like a piglet back into the inner pocket of the cloak, and then followed the guard all the way to the inner courtyard of the palace.

On the way, they also encountered a few local monsters wearing pure white cloaks. For some reason, Ji Heng always felt that these monsters looked at him with unfriendly eyes.

Fortunately, the king's personal guards were still following him. The local monsters just gave him a hard look and did not do anything to him. It wasn't until the other party walked away that the guards who were walking in front of them didn't look sideways. Slow down, and waited for Ji Heng to walk beside him, then smiled lightly, and kindly reminded: "Stay away from these monsters in the future, they all want to be the king's concubine."

"Ah?" Ji Heng opened his mouth wide, suddenly thinking of the rumor about himself.

"Well, Brother Qinwei, I, I never thought of being the one of the king, concubine..."

"No need to explain, we all know that the king likes you the most, come on!" After saying that, the personal guard took him directly to the devil's bedroom without hesitation.

Ji Heng: "..."

Walking into the Demon King's bedroom with a memory in mind, the room was brightly lit as usual. Lou Jinyu was sitting over there reviewing documents. When he saw him coming in, he motioned for him to wait on the side first. Then, Ji Heng found a The stool sat down.

Not daring to disturb the Demon King who was working, and not daring to walk around at will, Ji Heng could only look at Lou Jinyu who was sitting behind the table obliquely across the table.

Perhaps because the weather was too hot, Lou Jinyu had already taken off his outer cloak, and the sleeves of his jacket were rolled up, revealing his strong and beautiful forearms. He kept writing something with a pen, and two monsters were busy helping He organizes the paperwork and approved documents, and if there is something that needs to be dealt with immediately, he will immediately take it out and hand it over to the monsters who handle things outside.

Ji Heng suddenly felt a little guilty. He took the salary of the personal guard, which was higher than the real assistants around the king, but what he actually had to do every day was to sleep with the king, and most of the time the king Everyone kindly asked him to sleep first, except that he didn’t dare to move around, it was almost the same as sleeping in his own bed, and he only needed to sleep in another bed to get such a high salary, Ji Heng felt that he should give him another What more should the king do.

But what to do?

Processing paperwork?He didn't even know all the characters of the demon clan. In his previous life, when he was in kindergarten, the teacher didn't teach him too much. He could only count to one hundred and recite a few Tang poems. Not much help.

Cooking chores?Not to mention that he doesn't know what the devil's daily chores are, even if there are, he doesn't know how to do it?Do you want to help with cooking?But his cooking skills still stop at distinguishing ingredients...

Thinking about the salary of 5000 magic coins per month, and thinking about the reward of a silver bead given to me by the devil every day, and comparing my labor and effort, the little monster who accompanied the bed became more and more ashamed, and decided to study hard from today on. Skills, even if you can't become a qualified assistant to the devil, at the very least, you should at least be a qualified bed warming monster!

Or, start by learning how to give the king a bath?

Ji Heng's eyes lit up!

He remembered!

What he liked most in his previous life was that his mother and grandma took him to take a bath in the baby hall every Sunday. It’s not that it’s not good to take a bath at home, but if he goes to the baby hall, he can wear a little yellow duck swimming ring to swim. There is also an aunt who helps to take a bath, it is very comfortable to take a bath!He almost fell asleep every time he was rubbed.It seems that taking a hot bath can really help you sleep, right?

Carefully recalling in his mind the way the aunt who helped bathe in the baby and children's center took a bath, Ji Heng imitated it in his heart, and immediately clenched his fists with confidence: I must help the king to take a good bath tonight!

"What are you thinking?" Ji Heng was imagining in his heart that he would become a unique scrubber next to the devil through his scrubbing skills, and thus become a qualified devil's assistant. Suddenly, he heard a familiar sound coming from his ear. A cool and pleasant voice.

"King, Your Majesty?"

"Wait in a hurry? Let's go and have dinner."

Ji Heng hurriedly stood up. After sitting for a long time, his legs were almost numb, but he still endured and followed. I don’t know if he noticed that the footsteps behind him were a little lame. The demon king who was walking in front slowed down. Ji Heng finally followed.

Then, when the two sat at the dining table, Ji Heng's expression instantly became awkward.

The moment he sat down, he was awakened by the memory he hid in the inner pocket of the cloak.

This is quite normal. For a foodie, no matter how deeply he sleeps, he will wake up immediately when he smells barbecue.

So, just as the devil picked up the chopsticks and was about to pick up some food for the little monster who accompanied him on the bed, he saw a squirm in the cloak on the opposite side, and a human-shaped thing popped out.

Lou Jinyu: "..."

"Well, Your Majesty, I'm sorry, I, I usually entrust the memorial to Xiao Hei when I go to work, but this time Xiao Hei didn't live with us in the palace..." Ji Heng explained embarrassingly while working hard Press and hold to commemorate the claws extending to the roasted whole lamb.

"Since we're here, let's eat together!" The Demon King paused, then smiled gracefully.

He stopped laughing halfway through the meal.

He had heard of this little monster being able to eat in commemoration, but as the saying goes, seeing is worth seeing, he had never seen such an edible little monster!

According to the regulations, every meal of the devil king is very rich. Generally, you can eat a few mouthfuls of each dish before you are full. Monsters at the level of the devil king no longer rely on eating to gain strength. They have a better way to gain strength. Method.However, eating as a habit is still preserved.

This time, the Demon King tasted a little bit of everything as usual, and then the little monster who accompanied him on the bed carefully asked him if he could let his brother eat "that" roasted whole lamb.

He thought that the "that" mentioned by the little monster referred to the name of the dish, but he didn't expect that the focus was on the quantifier "a"!Watching the little monster gobble up the whole "one" roasted whole lamb, the devil finally understood what the little monster meant by "that" roasted whole lamb... He was actually Ask yourself, can you give the "a whole roasted whole lamb" to his brother?

Then, after confirming that the king was really full, the little monster first filled himself with a bowl of rice and half a plate of vegetables, then put his younger brother on the other side, and brought him plate by plate, and ate. After one dish was lighted, another dish was replaced until all the leftovers on the table were eaten, and then the little monster smacked its mouth a few times, nestled on the stool and remained motionless.

"He has always been like this, can he eat?"

"The appetite has decreased a lot recently, probably because it's too hot here, and the appetite is not very good." Ji Heng finished his portion, took the initiative to go over and twisted a hot towel, wiped the devil's hands and mouth, and took another One, take care of yourself and Memorial, and then hold your younger brother and ask the devil for help——

"Your Majesty, it's almost time to go to work, but I can't go out. Can you please send a brother guard to help me send the memorial to Ming's house, and let Xiao Hei take care of it?"

"Wait." Lou Jinyu clapped his hands, and soon a monster came in.

"Jiji, brother is going to work. I'll ask this big brother to take you to Brother Xiaohei, okay?" Ji Heng touched Jiujiu's head. Jijiu is already better than him and Xiaohei, and he has only been with them for a few years It can become an entity, and is now trying to become a human form. Although it has not been completely successful, the growth rate is already amazing for wild monsters.

Memorial squirmed a few times in his brother's arms, nodded drowsily, Ji Heng quickly took off his cloak to wrap him up, carefully placed him in the arms of the guard, and told him to deliver it to Heishui Mei personally. Li, and asked him to help tell Heishuimei that he will pick up his brother as soon as he gets off work tomorrow.

Seeing his younger brother leaving his sight, Ji Heng finally turned his head, and looked at the kind and gentle Demon King with gratitude: "Your Majesty, let this subordinate wait for you to take a bath and rest!"

Lou Jinyu: "..."

This little monster, probably secretly read some strange script, right?

However, a demon has always taken a bath alone, and the demon king has never experienced the feeling of bathing with other monsters. After thinking about it, the demon king nodded slightly, and Ji Heng immediately followed with a smile on his face.

The devil's bathroom is naturally different from theirs. There are two bathrooms inside and outside the oversized bathroom. There is a small bathtub on the outside, and there are shelves for bathrobes, bath towels, tea and snacks next to it. It is a place specially designed for the devil to take a rest after bathing.

Passing through an arch, there is a huge swimming pool inside, here is the place where the Demon King Prototype bathes.

It looks huge, but in fact, it is just enough to put the prototype of the devil into his huge body. The water inside can only cover the back of the devil, and there are many brushes, big and small, hanging on the wall next to it. That was specially used to clean the back armor and scales of the king's prototype...
