They talked for a long time that night.

Ling Yuan relayed the conversation with the Devil Emperor to Master in detail, and expressed her own considerations.

He believes that most of the tragedies he has seen and experienced since his birth stem from the never-ending strife and war in the Demon Realm.He originally thought that after defeating his father, he could get rid of everything and live the life he wanted with his master.Now, a conversation with the Devil Emperor reminded him that just defeating the Devil Emperor would not solve the root of the problem.

Ling Yuan said: "The Devil Emperor is now trying to conquer the entire Demon Realm and incorporate all the tribes in the Demon Realm into his empire territory. Although he did this out of his own ambition, I have indeed seen it in the past six months. After he established his power in this land, the defeated tribes had to obey him and stopped fighting with each other."

Meng Yijue listened carefully to Ling Yuan's narration and fell into deep thought.

Putting aside his prejudices, he also admitted that the actions of the Devil Emperor had indeed had some effect in quelling the war.He recalled what he had seen and heard in the past two months, and said slowly: "Lingyuan, do you still remember that the Devil Emperor has recently carried out a series of actions with great fanfare, including ascension to the throne and proclaiming himself emperor, building a palace, enshrining the crown prince, conferring rewards on generals, entrusting all the generals, Territory, etc., and even tried to "give me a marriage" and "concubine concubine". Although concubine concubine and the like are ridiculous, I feel that his series of behaviors are not random, but are intentionally imitated There are various systems that have been implemented in the history of the human race, such as the enfeoffment system, the emperor system, and the hereditary throne..."

"The Devil Emperor said that he wants to unify the Demon Realm and establish the most powerful centralization." Ling Yuan scratched his chin, "It seems that he is very likely to deliberately learn from the experience of the Human Realm and operate it seriously. With this matter, I hope to establish a stable imperial regime in the Demon Realm."

The young man and Meng Yijue looked at each other, feeling a little inconceivable to each other.

In their eyes, the Devil Emperor was just an ambitious bloodthirsty tyrant, an absolutely evil conqueror.Unexpectedly, this devil emperor is not just conquesting without thinking, but has his own set of thoughts.

Of course, the starting point for the Devil Emperor to implement these policies is still to stabilize his own rule, rather than "protecting peace."

"Now, the Devil Emperor has occupied more than half of the territory in the Demon Realm. Maybe in the near future, he can really occupy the entire Demon Realm as planned and build a huge empire." Meng Yijue said, "However, if he only relies on brute force to suppress Zhan Luan, this does not solve the problem from the root. I think, if one day he dies, or he is defeated, then these contradictions that have been suppressed by force will surface again, and everything in the Demon Realm will be the same as before. It’s going to go back to fighting endlessly.”

Ling Yuan nodded, "So what I'm thinking about now is how to solve the conflicts among the various races in the Demon Realm from the root. If killing and war can be truly suppressed and bring lasting peace to the Demon Realm, then not only the races living in the Demon Realm , Even the surrounding Northern Wilderness, Human World, and various sects are no longer disturbed by monsters, and can live a peaceful life."

The life of him and Master will also return to tranquility.

Meng Yijue opened the silver bracelet and pulled out the ancient books on the history of the human world that he had read earlier.

There used to be "countries" in the Central Plains of the Human World.Thousands of years ago, many feudal countries were established in the Central Plains, but later, with the rise of "cultivation" activities, the power gap between monks and ordinary people who did not practice immortality increased, and sects began to master A large amount of resources, and power began to transfer from the court to various cultivation sects.

During the long historical changes, the centralization of the monarchy has gradually disappeared, and there is no national border on the Human World Continent.Ordinary people live around the large sects as the center, and almost every major sect has its own "jurisdictional land".The Zongmen provides protection for ordinary residents within its jurisdiction, and the civilians will also provide some resources to the Zongmen on time in exchange.

Therefore, the current human world does not have a "country" in name, but each sect actually retains some systems of the feudal court. For example, the Haoyue Sect has a strict hierarchy and a hidden blood relationship system.The common people's regular provision of supplies by the sect is actually the same as regular tax payment.

There are many sects in the human world, and there are occasional competitions and frictions between the sects, but it is by no means like the Demon Realm, which keeps fighting all the time and wipes out the entire clan at every turn.

Meng Yijue carefully compared the conditions of the Human World and the Demon Realm, and found that both continents had huge populations and extremely numerous factions.That being the case, why can the human world always maintain a relatively peaceful state, while the Demon Realm keeps fighting all day long?

Suddenly, he thought of an important question.

"Lingyuan, why do most of these tribes in the Demon Realm fight? Is it for food?"

"Most of them are for food or water." Lingyuan thought for a while, and explained, "From my observations in the past six months, most tribes will occupy a piece of their own territory. Those who eat meat will prey on various animals, vegetarians Those who live in the mountains pick fruits and eat grass. If there is not enough food, they will go out and grab other people's food on the ground. This will cause hatred, and you will have to fight every day."

Meng Yijue frowned, "That is to say, they only eat what grows naturally, and they don't know how to grow food?"

Ling Yuan nodded: "Most of them don't. The tribes in the Demon Realm can be roughly divided into four categories: monsters, monsters, and beasts. Among them, the demons and demons are as intelligent as humans, and some are like humans. Some of them build residences or farm. habit, but also a small amount.

As for those monsters, they don't know how to farm by themselves.They usually find something to eat by themselves, and when they run out of food, they will grab other monsters, and the more powerful monsters will eat monsters.The only time I saw monsters farming was in the territory of the snake monsters. Those snake monsters captured a group of monsters and forced them to grow food for themselves and do all kinds of coolies. "

Meng Yijue snapped his fingers, "This is probably one of the crux of the problem. The human world has a long history of farming and is rich in supplies. Both commoners and monks live a comfortable life, and they can eat and wear without fighting to the death. But The Demon Realm is still in a primitive and uncivilized state. Most residents do not have the habit of farming or animal husbandry. They only eat what grows in the ground, and the food that grows naturally is limited. If there is nothing to eat, they will be hungry. You have to fight desperately, and you will fight to the death? When the water demons and wood demons migrated to the demon realm, they also fought with other demons to compete for survival resources."

There are too many monks in the Demon Realm, and the living environment is harsh. It is no wonder that the demons are always greedy for the richness of the human world, and sneak into the human world to rob supplies from time to time.Some even want to attack sects and snatch territory from the human world.

Meng Yijue thought: "Now that the Devil Emperor has laid down so many territories, and collected a lot of materials, food and treasures from all over the place to fill his palace, it must mean that those tribes who were robbed by him have suffered great losses. We must be poor and starve. In the long run, the grievances of all races against the Devil Emperor will only increase. When he falls, the empire will usher in endless backlash."

He gently held Ling Yuan's finger, "Ling Yuan, you want to be the ruler of the Demon Realm and completely quell the war in this land. Master fully supports you. The way the Demon Emperor used strength and power to suppress it is only It can take effect for a short period of time. If you want to truly "cure" the contradiction, you must completely transform the Moyu. What the Moyu lacks now is not only the rule of the strong, but also sufficient food, unified regulations, and civilized civilization. This The road will be difficult."

Ling Yuan stared at him quietly.

"Master, thank you for thinking so much for me."

"No need to say thank you." Meng Yijue said lightly, "If there is a chance, I hope to follow you around in the Demon Realm. After a field visit, maybe there will be new gains."

A few days later, there was turmoil on the southern border of the empire.

The Devil Emperor ordered to assemble a group of people, ready to go to quell the chaos.Before leaving, Lingyuan found him and asked to bring her master along with her.

The Devil Emperor was a little surprised to see him come forward to ask for his companion.He subtly felt that the current Ling Yuan seemed to be no longer as sharp-edged to him as usual, but restrained.

He thought for a while, maybe the conversation that day had somewhat changed his son's thinking, so that his son would no longer be so stubborn against him, and he was immediately overjoyed. He nodded and agreed to let Meng Yijue follow him on the expedition.

As a result, Meng Yijue was able to leave the dreary magic palace, and together with Ling Yuan, they boarded a chariot drawn by monsters and headed for the world outside the palace.

He watched the scenery outside the curtains of the carriage along the way, and photographed and recorded them all with a silver bracelet.

The scenery of the Demon Realm is generally not as beautiful as that of the Human Realm, but it is also unique. It has deserts, sand dunes, Gobi, stone forests and other scenes that are rarely seen in the Central Plains, and even volcanoes and dense rainforests.

But also because of this, as Ling Yuan said, most of the land here is relatively barren, food and water are extremely precious, and countless monsters fight each other for these every day, making life very difficult.

Meng Yijue silently stared at the vast expanse of land, and couldn't help sighing when he thought of what happened every day above.

In the evening of that day, the Devil Emperor and his party rushed to the scene of the incident.

The chariot drove into a golden desert, undulating up and down as it walked, as if walking on soft waves.

Meng Yijue looked into the distance from the car, the lone sun was setting in the distance, and the gauze-like bleak sunlight shone on the sandy ground, reflecting a desolate beauty.

After a while, some huts appeared sporadically in the desert, and it seemed that there were tribes scattered here.

After a while, the voices in front gradually became louder.

Meng Yijue remembered the purpose of the Devil Emperor's trip, and poked his head out carefully, and sure enough, he saw several billows of black smoke rising into the sky from the sand hills in the distance, like the flames of war.

The convoy stopped at the edge of the village.Ling Yuan took Meng Yijue out of the car, but the Devil Emperor in the opposite car waved at them: "It's just a small mess. I have already directed the soldiers to solve it. You don't have to go, just stay here."

The two demon generals who came with him ordered a team and continued to move forward.In an instant, all the accompanying soldiers and horses left, leaving only the guards of the devil emperor and the prince staying near the convoy.

Ling Yuan took a look at Meng Yijue, and said to the Demon Emperor, "We're just here to breathe, and we won't go anywhere else."

The Devil Emperor nodded slightly, and continued to take a nap in the carriage.

Lingyuan led Meng Yijue and walked in the soft sand.

There was an endless sea of ​​sand in front of my eyes, and the world was extremely quiet. Except for the military chaos coming from a distance, I could hardly hear other sounds in my ears.

The breeze engulfed the sand and gently blew on the cheeks.Feeling the slight stinging pain in his eyes, Meng Yijue subconsciously half-closed his eyes, and his long eyelashes closed, trembling like beautiful butterfly wings.

Ling Yuan noticed his movements, "Master, why are you crying?"

Meng Yijue smiled, and reached out to wipe away the tear from the corner of his eye.

"It's nothing, I got sand in my eyes."

Ling Yuan took his hand lightly, "Master, don't rub your eyes. I'll blow them out for you." As he spoke, he cupped Master's face so that it was facing him, and then pointed at Master's trembling eyelashes. Feather blew a few times.

The sand finally fell out, and Meng Yijue blinked tearfully.Ling Yuan felt pity and love in her heart, and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes for him.

"Master, it's windy here, let's go back."

In less than half an hour, the turmoil subsided.

The news of the victory came from ahead, Ling Yuan and Meng Yijue boarded the car again and drove into the Sand Dune Clan's residence.

It is called the Dune Race, but in fact, this is not a real race, but a collective name for all kinds of monsters living in this desert.

The desert is barren, and the environment in the Dune tribe's resident is also extremely simple.Most of the sand beasts live in semicircular sand houses made of sand, and some live directly in holes under the sand layer.Looking around, you can only see a few spots of green. There is a crescent-shaped spring in the middle of the village, and there is a crooked fence outside. It is obviously the key protection object of the sand beasts living here.

When they arrived, the demon soldiers were standing in a circle, holding their swords and pointing directly at the sand beast captives in the middle.

The leading demon general was holding a trembling sand lizard and beating it on the head with the handle of a knife.While knocking, he asked viciously: "Do you still dare to rebel? Huh?"

The lizard was beaten to the point of bleeding, but the first thing he said was a human voice: "We can't hand over what you want, we are desperate!"

"Bah! You are so courageous, you dare to disobey the will of the Devil Emperor!"

As he spoke, the demon general threw the sand lizard to the ground, and cut off its tail with a knife.

The sand lizard hissed, and blood flowed from its tail.The other monsters of the Dune Clan next to them saw it, and immediately trembled with fright.

The devil general turned around, bowed to the devil emperor, and said, "Your Majesty asked the Dune Clan to pay [-] catties of grain every month, but this month they only took out [-] catties, which is far from meeting the requirement! Those who came to collect grain The demon soldiers beheaded two sand beasts as a punishment. Unexpectedly, the gang of unruly people resisted, and the leader of the sand lizards even bit the neck of the demon soldiers. This move is undoubtedly despising His Majesty's Tianwei, it is extremely insane! Your Majesty , please make an order to kill all these stupid sand beasts!"

As soon as his words came out, the captured sand beasts became restless, some cried in panic, and some roared unwillingly.

The Devil Emperor glanced at them indifferently, and waved his hand, "What's the use of disobedient and weak people. Kill them all."

The magic soldiers raised their swords and walked away.But at this moment, there was only a low shout: "Everyone stop!" All the soldiers were stunned for a moment, and when they looked back, it was their prince who had spoken.

Ling Yuan walked up to the Demon Lord, pointed to the residence of the Dune Clan and said, "Devil Emperor, this place is full of deserts, and there are very few oases and springs. The Dune Clan can't find anything to eat themselves, so you ask them to take out three Handing over a hundred catties of grain is undoubtedly beyond the reach of the strong."

The Demon Emperor sized him up and said slowly: "Difficult? There is always a shortage of food in the Demon Realm. Which tribe is not difficult? Didn't they try their best to obtain food? If I let the Shaqiu tribe go today, other tribes will also complain in the future Shirk. All the tribes refuse to pay food and refuse to submit to the jurisdiction, isn’t my empire just a joke!”

Ling Yuan gritted her teeth and said, "If you kill them, they will not be able to conjure food for you here. Today the Sand Dunes can't hand in the food to rebel, and tomorrow the other tribes won't be able to hand in the food. You will kill them all one by one." , in the end, your Demon Realm Empire will only be left with you, an empty Demon Emperor!"

"The Dune Clan can't hand in, there will always be a tribe that can. The opposite of this desert is the territory of the Demon League, where there is plenty of food. The Sand Dune Clan can't fight for the Sand Demon, so who is to blame?" the Devil Emperor said coldly , "For races that can't even get food, there is no need to waste their territory to survive!"

He waved his hand and was about to order the massacre, when Meng Yijue suddenly said: "Devil Emperor, if I have a way to get the Dune Clan to provide enough food, can you let them go?"

The Devil Emperor was taken aback, then raised his eyebrows, "You? What can you do?"

Meng Yijue said: "The Dune tribe has no arable land, and they can't beat the sand monsters on the other side of the mountain. Their food is collected by themselves, which can only satisfy food and clothing, and it is difficult to have surplus food. However, if this desert is transformed into Fields where they can grow, they can get enough food to eat and turn in."

The Devil Emperor frowned, and the Sand Beasts beside him also exchanged doubtful glances.

"Planting, what do you mean?"

"I don't know, but listening to that person, it seems that it can fill our stomachs."

Meng Yijue heard that most of them didn't understand the concept of farming. Thinking of the rare water resources in this desert, it is estimated that no one has planted here for thousands of years.Then he explained: "Planting means burying the seeds of food in the soil, watering and fertilizing every day, and after a year or so, food can be grown continuously."

The sand beasts looked surprised.The Devil Emperor shook his head, "When I was traveling in the Central Plains, I also saw the fields of the human race. But the way of the human race is impossible in this barren sand. If you let the sand dune race farm, it is better to teach them to defeat It might be easier for the Sand Demon to rob food."

Meng Yijue subconsciously grasped the silver bracelet in his hand.

"What if I say... I can?"

The Devil Emperor was taken aback, "What can I do?"

"I can turn the sand dunes into oases, and the wasteland in the Demon Realm into fields."

As soon as this remark came out, all the magic soldiers and generals present burst out laughing.

"This stupid human race, do you still think that you are a god descending from the earth?"

"It's so whimsical! I laughed to death..."

Amidst the roar of laughter, Meng Yijue bit his lips and insisted: "Devil Emperor, can you let the Dune tribe go first. Give me some time, and I will let them grow enough food, so that they will never be hungry again! "
