Cub Nursery

After eating a few pancakes in the Yao Kingdom, Ming Mao always felt that the pancakes in his hands were particularly fragrant, more delicious than any food he had eaten before.

The crispy and delicious pancakes are extra crispy to chew, especially watching the silver-clawed hyena demons outside being killed one by one by the huge ant marching demons, Ming Mao feels that the pancakes in his hands are more fragrant, and the eggs in the pancakes taste even better Now, the meat slices inside the pancakes are also more delicious.

Even the soft and rotten porridge tasted very different.

The same canned food that I ate in Qiyuan County, but I ate it again in Yaoguo, the taste is different, more fragrant, and more memorable.

"We were like this when we built the Yaoguo Underground Railway." Brother Dan said, "But at that time, there were no monsters attacking the city, so it was much safer. You don't have to stay in a glass box like you are now."

But at that time, there were still many uncultivated technical craftsmen and Jia Qiugu, who were sent by the court to receive errands, who entered the demon country at that time. It was very rare for them to enter the demon country with ordinary people.

"Dining in the demon country is extra delicious!" Ming Mao said.

"That is!" Brother Dan deeply agreed.

When two chatterboxes get together, there is absolutely nothing to say, and they keep muttering.

When Yan Xun woke up, Brother Dan had already led the people to start working again.

The rain-wet soil is too hard, and the upper layer needs to be dug up to make it fluffy and soft.

Gray Deer has never done such a job. Before there were mulberry fields and cotton fields in the border town, there was no such job as field work. Afterwards, there were mulberry fields and cotton fields, and it was not up to Gray Deer to do such a good job.

Gray Deer first saw other people doing it, and then he learned it slowly. Once he learned it, he did it quickly.

border town.

Qin Yi was a little restless, he resisted it, and asked step by step with the prince's manner: "Master Yan hasn't come back yet?"

"Return to Your Highness, no." Mr. He saw Qin Yi's face becoming more and more unsightly, and hurriedly said, "The lieutenants who asked to see Lord Yan in the border town camp also failed to see them all."

"Do they dare to go to the demon country to meet Lord Yan?" Qin Yi asked back.

Mr. He shrank his neck and dared not speak.

Qin Yi originally disguised herself to welcome Yan Xun into the city, but she took the initiative to bow to Yan Xun. In Mr. He's opinion, it was a good thing. He was looking for an opportunity to reveal to Yan Xun, so he didn't let Qin Yi go to see Yan Xun directly. .

As a result, the concrete building was watertight, and it was impossible to reveal to Yan Xun. Mr. He was thinking of other ways, but Yan Xun went directly to the Yao Kingdom.

At this time, the monsters were attacking the city, and the seriously injured Taoist soldiers were brought back bloody every day, and the road from the outer city wall to the border city camp was almost covered with blood.

Under such circumstances, Yan Xun went to the demon country, and the cubs went to the outer city wall.

"Go to the Demon Observation Tower and ask, and see what Lord Yan is doing in the Demon Kingdom." Qin Yi said.

Although Qin Yi, as the crown prince, did not go to the battlefield, he has the right to know what was observed at the Demon Observation Tower, and there was nothing hidden from the Demon Observation Tower.

On weekdays, the Demon Watching Tower mainly observes the ants marching demons in the demon country, while the Demon Watching Tower mainly observes the outside of the outer city wall and the sky in wartime to determine the evacuation or reinforcement of monsters, and the huge glass building built by the cubs The box is naturally also within the view of the Demon Watching Tower.

When Mr. He heard the news from the Observation Tower, he was dumbfounded and couldn't believe it.

"His Royal Highness... Master Yan built a glass box in the demon country that is not afraid of the silver-clawed hyena demon and the dimensional bee demon. It is comparable to a concrete building." Mr. He hesitated. It's not true. If he hadn't asked repeatedly to confirm, he wouldn't have dared to tell Qin Yi.

Qin Yi's expression changed, and she asked, "What is Master Yan doing at this moment?"

"Master Yan is resting after drinking the decoction." Mr. He said.

"Where are the Taoist soldiers who followed?" Qin Yi asked again.

"They are eating." Cold sweat dripped from Mr. He's head.

"What's for dinner?" Qin Yi's voice had lost all emotion.

Mr. He bit the bullet and said: "Baked pancakes."

The big monster pot is set up ready-made, and the oil cakes are baked on the spot, and eggs, sliced ​​meat, and even a vegetable are added.They not only ate oil cakes, but also drank porridge, steamed buns, and canned food.

Although the glass box is also in the demon country, it doesn't look like it is in the demon country at all.

"Mr. He." Qin Yi stared at Mr. He, "How are those Taoist soldiers? Did they go to the battlefield to die? But none of them died! On the contrary, they were well protected. Then why can't I go on the battlefield? battlefield?"

Because they were afraid that he would be in danger, all the staff would not let him get close to the outer city wall, and even let him hide in this concrete building, so it was difficult for outsiders to see him.

"Your Highness, you are different." Mr. He quickly knelt down and kowtowed.

Qin Yi closed her eyes, waved her hand at Mr. He and said, "Sir, step back, I just want to be quiet."

Every time I have to say those things, saying that he is the prince, that if something happens to him, the Great Qin will be chaotic, that he has a heavy responsibility, and that he should not come to the border city, let alone go to the outer city wall.

He can't help himself in many things and can only compromise.

Even if Yan Xun took people to the demon country, eating and drinking leisurely on the battlefield, even if Yan Xun protected all the Taoist soldiers who followed, Qin Yi knew that his staff would not let him go to the demon country .

Then what is he, the crown prince, compared to those Taoist soldiers?Compared with Yan Xun, what is it?

After Yan Xun stayed in the Yao Kingdom, he didn't return for several days.

The cubs didn't even go back to the cement building, they ran out of the glass box to find Yan Xun to eat and sleep together, and even brought out many bedding and other supplies for the soldiers.

"The soil of the demon country has changed." Yan Xun said, "Tomorrow, I will try to find some seeds and see if I can germinate them."

"Success, I'll send one tomorrow." The flower tree cub hurriedly said.

"I want to eat a piece of fried egg." Egg red red Bala little prince.

The little prince put a piece of his own fried egg on the plate in front of Egg Honghong.

"I also want to eat fried eggs!" Brother Dan stood up and looked at the cubs' plates one by one, and found that they were all solid egg yolks. Finally, he saw that the plate in front of Yan Xun was wrong, so he hurried over and stretched out his little paws Pressing Yan Xun's finger, he raised his face and asked, "Daddy, can I have a bite of the egg yolk on your plate?"

"Success." Yan Xun nodded.

Brother Dan took his small spoon and ran to the side of the plate, stretched out his arms and pierced the egg yolk, took a spoonful of egg yolk while the egg yolk was flowing out, and quickly sucked it up and drank it.

"Well, I'm finally satisfied." Brother Dan ran back to his side and sat down to eat again.

It is not finished after the seeds are planted, there must be wind to simulate the natural environment.

But how does the wind come?

"The Demon Fan!" Yan Xun said, "Let's make the Demon Fan."

"It's easy, I understand!" Brother Dan hurriedly said, "It's similar to the magnetic field formed by cutting the magnetic leaf grass fruit with a coil, but this time it's completely reversed... and as long as we control the power generation, theoretically, the demon fan It's one that can turn."

Because the cubs have already been exposed to similar mechanisms, it is also easy to build.

And Mingmao and the others watched helplessly as the cubs brought more and more things from the border town, and even took Dahei out, and let Dahei come out carrying something like a hill, in a mighty way. Ignoring the silver-clawed hyena demon and the little bee demon in the sky who were staring at the surroundings, they went directly to the glass box to work.

Mingmao helped to move things, and watched as more and more things were contained in the glass box, and the transparent glass was finally blocked, so he could see clearly.

"Grey Deer, you said they got that big wheel with iron pieces inside, what are they doing for it?" Ming Mao didn't understand the demon fan, and he couldn't imagine how the thing was blown out by the wind. Uncomfortable, he couldn't help but ask Gray Deer.

"They say it's a demon fan." Gray Deer said, "The kind that blows wind."

"Why?" Mingmao stared, "I've been thinking about it for a long time, but I haven't figured it out yet."

"I don't know either." Gray Deer shook his head.

But Mingmao soon didn't have to think about it by himself, because the little demon fan that the cubs used for experiments twirled, but Mingmao was startled, and very excited, he hurried over to watch, his eyes wide open. He stared at the fast-rotating iron piece without blinking.

"How did it turn?" Ming Mao still didn't understand.

Gray Deer was also very surprised, but he looked more carefully, and soon saw a line behind the demon fan, and quickly pointed it out to Ming Mao.

"What's the use of a wire?" Mingmao stared, and suddenly he understood a little, "Is it the same as a demon lamp? What kind of thing is needed? Electricity, right?"

"It should be." Gray Deer was also a little uncertain.

"It's electricity." The thunder cub said, "As long as there is electricity and a mechanism, the demon fan can rotate. Come and feel the wind and see if it's big..."

Everyone is wearing jackets at the moment, but there was no wind in the glass box before, and the jackets on their bodies are very thick, even if there is wind, they can't blow through. One piece came forward to blow the air.

The thick jacket on his body couldn't feel the wind at all, Ming Mao quickly took off his gloves, and his eyes lit up the moment he felt the wind, "It's really windy!"

"Is it windy?" Thunder Cub asked.

"Big!" Ming Mao affirmed, and he immediately thought of Xia Tian, ​​"If it's hot in summer, you can't use your own fan, as long as you have a demon fan."

"It will be arranged in the summer, maybe it will be mass-produced." Thunder Cub said, "Originally, Qiyuan County planned to lay power grids and build power plants, but there is no time now, and I am afraid that it will not be ready for next year's summer." In the past, when the whole county was powered on, we had to temporarily build a small mechanism to temporarily generate electricity to make the demon fan run. Come with me and take you to see the generator, go up and try it, and tell me how it feels."

There are several types of generators, some of which can be turned directly by shaking the handle. Mingmao went up and tried it, and felt that it didn’t have so much strength. Then I tried pedaling, but it was okay, but the strength was not long enough, so I finally tried turning it. It was the Yuanpan mechanism, so I felt that it was almost the same, and it was just right for him.

The soil in the glass box has just experienced rain, and it was planed again to make it fluffy, and then it was blown by the wind again.

There is also wind in the demon country, but the wind is very special. It is like a knife blowing on the body, and it hurts directly to the bone. It will make people more and more uncomfortable and irritable, and eventually they will use all means to kill themselves uncontrollably.

But the wind blown by the demon fan is different, it's just wind, it doesn't make people uncomfortable.

The Taoist soldiers on the demon watching tower can clearly see the glass box of the demon country through the high-powered binoculars, and can even see the organs inside clearly. They can clearly see how Ming Mao controls the organs and how to let the distant The demon fan turned.

It just so happened that Mr. He sent someone to inquire about the news again, and the Taoist soldiers on the Observation Tower didn't hide it, they all told them everything.

Dao Bing had heard about the demon fan from the cubs a long time ago, but he only saw it with his own eyes this time. He even heard about the demon fan from Brother Dan. The pot, and even the Tesla coils on the outer city wall are similar, and they are all closely related to 'electricity'.

The people sent by Mr. He asked carefully, and the Taoist soldiers also spoke carefully and clearly.

Dao Bing even kindly told the person sent by Mr. He, "That monster fan is nothing. I heard from Brother Dan that the power grid will be laid in Qiyuan County in the future. It seems to be related to the return of the coal in the mountains to Mr. Yan. I dare not say that, at least in Qiyuan County, every household should be able to blow demon fans, light demon lamps, and use demon country. Brother Dan also said that maybe after a few decades, there will still be ghosts on the concrete roads in Qiyuan County. There are many monster cars running around."

These things are not secrets, and Brother Dan is a chatterbox, and he happens to be a little familiar with this Taoist soldier on the Observation Tower, so it's not like he opened up the chatterbox, talking endlessly.

Those who listened listened carefully, and then told Mr. He exactly after returning home.

As soon as Mr. He heard it, he knew that the matter was serious, so he hurried to find Qin Yi.

The matter of laying the power grid in Qiyuan County was not disclosed to the prince at all. They are all in Qiyuan County, but they can only know now, and even the border city soldiers told them.

Did the cubs guard against them on purpose, or did Yan Xun deliberately guard against them without telling them?

The majestic prince has been kept in the dark for so long, this is really a slap in the face, how can the prince be imprisoned in the future, how can he have the majesty of the prince?

"Your Highness." Mr. He thought so in his heart, but said on his mouth, "The coal was originally the leader of the Fourth Prince, but it turned out to be in the hands of Lord Yan. Brother Dan said that Lord Yan got the coal, so he thought about it in Qiyuan. The power grid is laid in the county. But Qiyuan County is just a county after all, and no matter what happens, it can't go ahead of the capital..."

The benefits of the power grid can only be seen from the demon lights and demon fans.

As long as there is a power grid, there will be no need to light so many lanterns in the capital in the future, and even the palace will not need to light lanterns, just light the demon lights directly, which will make the lights bright all night and all night, even as bright as day.

There are many demon lights in the border town. On both sides of the concrete road, on the outer city wall, even in the camp of the border town, especially in the wards, those demon lamps are so big and bright that it is not an exaggeration to say that they are as bright as daytime.

"No matter how you say it, the power grid must be laid first in the capital." Mr. He said, "Why don't your highness take this opportunity to raise this matter, and it just happens to let the demon lamp, demon fan, and demon pot enter the capital. These things are all dead things. It has something to do with the electricity, it's totally okay..."

And as long as Qin Yi can lay the power grid in the capital, then when the people in the capital enjoy the convenience brought by the demon lamp and feel the wind blown by the demon fan, they can think that Qin Yi brought all of this. The position will be more stable, and it will not be difficult even to ascend the throne in the future.

The benefits are obvious, how could Qin Yi not think of it.

I just told him to go to Yan Xun with empty mouths, but he couldn't open that mouth.

"Since the cubs have said that they want to lay power grids in Qiyuan County, even if they say it alone, Master Yan will not agree..." Qin Yi folded her hands and faced the window, looking at the wide concrete road outside. He said to the lush cotton on the side of the road, "Mr. He, you should know that even if you face Lord Yan alone, it is..."

Even if Qin Yi didn't want to admit it, she had to admit that compared with Yan Xun, he was really inferior, even a lot worse.

"Your Highness, please don't underestimate yourself." Mr. He didn't expect that Qin Yi, who has always been under one person and above tens of thousands of people, would say such a word, and he was frightened With a jump, he quickly knelt down, "His Royal Highness, you are the crown prince and the crown prince. How can Yan Xun be on par with you? You have the might of the sun and the moon, but he is nothing more than a gnat."

Good words sound good no matter when they are heard, even Qin Yi has heard them many times.

But no matter how sweet the words are, they can't change the reality.

Qin Yi murmured: "I can't compare to Mr. Yan, Mr. He, don't say such things again. Qiyuan County is in chaos, who in Daqin can handle the errands as beautifully as Mr. Yan? It is not an exaggeration to say that it will change the world, so let's go." If you let Gu come, Gu will definitely not be able to do it."

Who would have thought that instead of punishing those people who rose up against the rebellion, they would just serve hard labor? Who would have thought that it would be so easy for the cubs to borrow soldiers? Even Qin Yi himself did not dare to directly borrow so many soldiers. He dared, and the emperor would not be willing, but the emperor was willing to let the cubs let Yan Xun borrow troops.

No one thought that there would be monsters in Qiyuan County, and even the entire county was almost occupied and there were no living people.

However, these things that seemed almost impossible to be solved smoothly in the eyes of others were solved so cleanly and beautifully in Yan Xun's hands, and even directly reversed the impression of Qiyuan County among all the people of Daqin, and ushered in the first batch of refugees who voluntarily defected .

Obviously Yan Xun's tossing in Qiyuan County was turned upside down, even the water in the canal flooded, and even the giant Xiao Hei appeared, but Qiyuan County was still so stable, and those people did not become chaotic again.

So popular, there is only one person in the whole Great Qin, even Qin Yi himself absolutely dare not say that he can compare with Yan Xun.

Mr. He thinks that he is the sun and the moon, and Yan Xun is the mayfly. This is really a big joke. In fact, it should be the other way around.

"Gu already understands." Qin Yi sighed, "Mr. He, you have been following Gu and doing a lot of things for Gu, but in fact Gu can't give you anything. Gu and Lord Yan are incomparable, incomparable."

"Your Highness..." Mr. He still wanted to say something, but when he saw Qin Yi waving his hand, he quickly shut up, bowed his body and backed away.

When he got outside, Mr. He didn't dare to stay, and hurried to find other staff members.

In the warm room, not only is there a charcoal basin, but also a kang, and there is even a fire wall outside. In the cement building, it is almost unnecessary to wear a jacket, and only a thin layer of single clothes is enough.

Mr. He walked too fast, he was sweating from the heat, he closed the door when he entered the room, looked around and saw that everyone was there and there was no outsider, then he said everything he had just said to Qin Yi.

"Yan Xun is powerful and popular among the people, if he can't win him over, he may cause future trouble." Said the staff member with a gray beard.

"The fourth prince gave up the coal mine and returned it to Yan Xun. Now that Yan Xun has the coal mine, he wants to lay power grids in Qiyuan County. There is something to be done."

"Try to control the news in the palace, and don't let the imperial concubine know about it. The fourth prince is spoiled by nature, and he is very happy. If there is no advice from the imperial concubine, he is afraid that he will cause disaster."

"It just happens to implicate Yan Xun."

Mr. He nodded while listening, "That's very good."

These staff members have been thinking about these things all day long, otherwise Qin Yi would not be able to sit on the throne of the prince steadily for so many years, and the princes below would all be watching. , can bite off a piece of flesh from Qin Yi's body in an instant, and even drag him down from the position of prince.

"The third prince has a very good reputation among the people, and he has a good relationship with Yan Xun, so we have to guard against it."

"Don't worry, take your time." Mr. He said, "The third prince still has to deal with Yan Xun. As long as Yan Xun doesn't support him, the third prince has no chance. We might as well let the sixth prince stand up. Compete with the third prince."

"Two dogs fight, play off."

"to make."

A few people talked one by one, and waited until the words were almost the same. Then Mr. He stood up again and went to see Qin Yi. If Qin Yi was willing to come, he would discuss these matters with Qin Yi over there, but the matter How to deal with it was discussed in advance by everyone, and how to say it was already thought up. As long as Qin Yi doesn't object too much, the matter will basically be settled in this way.

But after Qin Yi came, some of the staff suddenly thought of something and asked, "Your Highness, now that General Qiu has made great achievements in battle, and his lieutenants have already occupied half of the border city, in the future, General Qiu, even if he is not a general defending the city, will definitely be defeated." No loss, do you see if you can win him over?"

"General Qiu and the emperor have an inseparable relationship. It is a bond left in their youth. His weight is generally not comparable to that of a general."

It's not that the crown prince didn't show kindness to Qiu Bao in the past, but Qiu Bao never responded, but now that Qin Yi came to the border town in person, he had to contact Qiu Bao for reasons.

"General Qiu..." Qin Yi knew this man, and had met Qiu Bao when she was a child, and knew that he was very proud, even though he was already the crown prince, she didn't pay much attention to him, and was always scheming sullenly If the emperor didn't trust him, Qin Yi wouldn't want to deal with him at all.

Now that he had to deal with each other again after many years, Qin Yi's mood suddenly became bad, but he also knew that he had to do some things as the prince, so he nodded sternly.

"Your Highness, General Yang's side..." Mr. He whispered, "Our people have been staring at that side. Master Yan has never visited General Yang since he came to the border town, and General Qiu has not visited either. I heard that General Yang He is seriously ill, and now he is only hanging on his breath, and he may not be able to get up at any time..."

Yang Shuning was dying of serious injuries, hanging on intermittently, until now no one except the doctor came to see him.
