Devil on the tip of the tongue

Knowing that Ji Heng's younger brother and friends are now living in the Ming family's other courtyard, the Demon King quickly issued a new call-up order: invite Ming's father to be the Demon King's clerk.

Ming's father's leg injury was almost healed. After receiving the king's call-up order, he immediately got up and prepared to go to work, but Ming's mother held him down.

"Do you know why the king recruited you to be his personal clerk?" Ming's mother looked straight at her husband.

"Isn't it because I'm calm and capable?"

"Bah!" Mother Ming's answer was simple and crisp.

"Then why do you say it?"

"In my opinion, it's probably because of the relationship between our family and Ji Heng..." Ming's mother murmured, the care of a female monster made her think more than her husband, "Look, Wang Shangming likes Ji Heng very much, As soon as he arrived in Sunset City, he summoned Ji Heng to sleep in the inner courtyard of the palace, and even accompanied him when he went shopping, but the king has never revealed Ji Heng's identity to the public, why do you think this is?"

"I guess it's probably because Ji Heng is underage, so he doesn't comply with the law?"

"It's not important! If the king really wants Ji Heng to be a concubine, even if he is not an adult, can't he be conferred first?" Ming's mother raised her voice.

"Could it be that the king just wants to play with Ji Heng? This..." Ming's father gasped.

"Why do you think so?" Ming's mother slapped Ming's father to stumble, "Didn't you always say that the king is your eternal idol?"

"That's different! The king has brought hope to the demons, but the hero may also be a scumbag, and Ji Heng's little monster has no relatives and no reason. It is a wild low-level little monster. If the king is really just playing Playing, not even giving a title, and no one dares to say anything."

"If the king really just wanted to play with him, he wouldn't be able to recruit you to be his clerk." Ming's mother sighed, thinking that it was very wise for her father-in-law to decide to let her husband take over the family business instead of being an official. If Papa Ming really wants to be an official with his brains, I'm afraid...she wouldn't even dare to think about the consequences!

"In my opinion, the king should want Ji Heng to have a higher status, but you and I both know that whether it is in Shanghai or Sunset City, the throne of the king determines that the queen cannot come from A shabby place like the Abandoned Devil's Nest." Ming's mother sighed, "I guess, the king probably wants you and me to take the initiative to adopt Ji Heng brothers, so that the status of the Ming family will be improved, and we will wait until later. In a few years, not many monsters can remember Ji Heng's past, and the monsters outside will know that he is the adopted son of the Ming family, not a wild monster that came out of the magic cave."

"In this case, coupled with the king's absolute control over Sunset City, maybe Ji Heng can really become the queen..." Ming's father murmured.

"So, when you go to thank the king tomorrow, by the way, say that our family likes Ji Heng and Memorial very much, and wants to adopt them. Ask the king what he means. If the king agrees, it should be... that is. That's what we guessed."

"I didn't expect it...it would be him!" Ming's father also knew what the elders of the Ming family meant. The king hadn't got married a day ago, and these old demon families would have the opportunity to compete for the queen's position, but I'm afraid everyone They never expected that the king's real preference would be the low-level wild little monster that was born and raised in the abandoned magic cave!

"Yeah! I didn't expect... that child would have such luck!" Ming's mother has always liked Ji Heng and Ji Ji, but can such a young child really withstand the pressure and become a queen standing beside the devil?The most important thing is that none of them know what Ji Heng's prototype is, they can only feel that his power is very weak. Can such a queen really be recognized by those big monsters around the king?

"Speaking of which, ma'am, have you seen the prototype of Ji Heng?" Father Ming suddenly asked.

Ming's mother: "..."

The couple had their son called over, and asked Ming Xiao the same question.

Ming Xiao: "..." Sure enough, it's definitely not a good thing for mom and dad to find me!But what exactly is Ji Heng's prototype?It seems that he has never seen it.

"Let's take a look at the memorial! Aren't they two brothers?"

"That, Dad, have you forgotten? To commemorate, it was picked up by Ji Heng from the ruins..." It was not born by a demon, and it has no reference value at all.

In the end, the whole family decided to respect Ji Heng's own decision. No matter whether Wang Shang had that intention or not, Ming's mother wanted to adopt Ji Heng brothers, but whether Ji Heng agreed or not, let him make his own decision.

When the Ming family was worried about Ji Heng's future, Ji Heng was making molds with wood in the palace.

Children like to do handicrafts, and Ji Heng especially liked it when he was a child. During the years he lived with Xiao Hei and the others, he changed from a little monster who didn't know anything to a young monster who could support himself, relying on himself With these dexterous hands, the wood and animal skins picked up from the wild can be turned into furniture, bedding, backpacks and so on in the nest.

Although the fresh fruits bought from the market are not as good as those in the palace, but after all it is his heart. He is going to use these fruits together with honey and other ingredients to make various fruity syrups.Then use the molds I made to make the syrup into candies with various cartoon patterns, which can be given to Ming’s mother to decorate the pastry. It is beautiful and delicious, and Ming’s mother will definitely like it.

Thinking of this, Ji Heng sniffled his nose. The boy who had already had a stroke seemed to be between a child and an adult, but he still lived in his heart the four-year-old boy who first came to this strange world. He missed his mother. I thought of how my mother taught me how to make cakes every time.Sometimes he is really envious of Ming Xiao. Although Ming's mother... well, she looks good at fighting, but when she is not fighting, she will gently prepare various snacks for Ming Xiao.

When the devil came back from his official duties, he saw the little monster lying on the table, not knowing what he was busy with. He took a closer look, and found that the little monster was wrapping solidified candy in the grid with cut natural color paper. Woke up, the candy was brightly colored, exuding the sweetness of fruit and the aroma of honey, Lou Jinyu picked up a candy and stuffed it into his mouth, um, it was quite delicious!

The devil doesn't like sweets very much, but the candy made by the little monster is very cute, so he decided to try it as a reward.

"Your Majesty?" Ji Heng stopped what he was doing, and looked stupidly at the Demon King who was holding a Pleasant Goat lollipop in his mouth.

"What are you doing?"

"Oh, I want to make some candies for Ming's mother. I have been bothering Ming's mother to take care of my younger brother and Xiao Hei before, and I have nothing to repay, but I suddenly thought that I can actually make candies." Ji Heng continued to work There is work in the house, and he has to get it all done before he gets off work.

In the past when they were struggling to survive in the wild, they didn't even have to eat fruit, so they didn't have the conditions to make fruit candies. Thinking about their current life, it was much better than before, so he really didn't understand why those monsters in the magic capital We must oppose the king, if there is no king, the whole magic city will still be in darkness.

Out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly glanced at the wooden grid containing candy, and the devil's eyes suddenly froze on a certain fuchsia cartoon candy——

This is... Peppa Pig?

As a monster who likes to read and doesn't like to watch TV, most of the demon king's study abroad experience in the human world is linked to libraries and various bookstores. To be honest, as a single monster and the prince of the demon clan, Lou Jinyu I didn't have the opportunity to come into contact with the cartoons that only the human race like Peppa Pig loves to watch.

However, the owner of a bookstore where he often goes to buy books has a daughter who likes to watch Peppa Pig very much. Therefore, every time he goes to the cashier to check out, the devil will see the computer screen that should have been used for cashier. Pig Peppa and its family, and then the boss will coax his daughter to turn off the cartoon first, so that the guests can check out.

This is probably the only chance to get in touch with the cartoons of the Demon King and the Human World.

So, his bed companion...has really been to the human world?

Or, he actually came from the human world?

"Speaking of which, I have never seen your prototype before." Lou Jinyu pretended to ask unintentionally when he pulled out the cartoon candy of Peppa Pig from the wooden grid.

"Ah? Your Majesty...do you want to see it?" The little monster was suddenly a little embarrassed.

"What? Inconvenient?"

"No, no, that's right, don't laugh at me after you see it." The little monster's ears turned red, he put down the candy in his hand, looked left and right, found a slightly open space, and then, a shrunken version of... Own?

The Peppa Pig candy in the devil's hand fell to the ground with a "pop".

I was a little confused in my mind.

His father was a wanderer in the early years, but later insisted that he only loved his mother and queen, and only his own little monster... Could it be that the father cheated again after his mother left home?

Otherwise, how could there be a little monster exactly like his prototype?

It looks like his real brother!

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty?" It's a pity that the power of the little monster is too weak, and it only lasted for a while before regaining its human form.This is probably the biggest difference between wild monsters and viviparous monsters. Viviparous monsters are prototypes at birth, inheriting the power of their parents, making them inherently stronger than wild monsters.

But wild monsters like Ji Heng are different. To be precise, this kind of monsters are formed from the free breath in the demon world. At the beginning, they don't have any accurate shape. Gradually form their own inherent form, but most of these monsters are like clay figurines made by naughty children, rough, ugly, and without aesthetic feeling.

However, the Demon King looked at the little black-haired monster standing there obediently, but he didn't dare to equate him with those crude wild monsters.

What is he?

Or, who is he?
