Cub Nursery

"What's that?" Brother Huan watched as the entire iron wall of the train carriage collapsed, exposing the huge iron bumps inside. He had some guesses in his heart, but he wasn't too sure about his guess, so he just watched curiously.

The iron lump looks similar to the train blindfolded, but when you look closely, you feel that it is different everywhere.

"It's a demon car." Yan Xun laughed.

"Demon car? Is that a monster?" As soon as Brother Huan finished his sentence, he saw the cubs running forward and getting into the monster car. He saw the front demon lights light up. He was startled, and instantly He relaxed, "Is that a demon lamp? In that case, the demon car must not be a monster."

There are many demon lights in the border town, especially on the outer city wall, there are whole rows of them all.

Outside the train station, on the side of the wide concrete road, and even at the entrance of the big camp in the border town, there is a demon lamp. Every evening, these demon lamps will be lit up, illuminating this large area as brightly as possible. daytime.

No matter how magical the demon lamp is, it is man-made, not a monster.

"The monster car is not a monster, it's similar to the monster lamp, but the mechanism inside is more complicated." Yan Xun said, "We will build a few more monster cars in the future. When there are more monster cars in the future, ordinary people can drive them."

The demon car ran down the iron sheet of the overturned carriage. Through the glass window, you can see that only the black and white cub sitting at the front and the far right is holding a round thing, and seems to be stepping on some mechanism under his feet, concentrating , while the other cubs sat leisurely.

"My lord." The demon car slowly stopped beside Yan Xun, the black and white cubs turned off the mechanism, and looked over with sparkling eyes.

The complexity of this monster car was beyond the imagination of all the cubs, and Yan Xun hardly helped, it was all a mechanism researched by the cubs themselves, and after a little adjustment, it finally became what it is now.

In addition to the steering wheel at the front of the monster car, there is also a whole console with dazzling buttons.

"Very good, we can build a second one." Yan Xun said with a smile, "Go and drive the monster car to the train station square, so that everyone can have a look."

After finishing speaking, Yan Xun glanced at Brother Huan, and hurriedly asked: "There are still vacancies inside, why don't you go up and try?"

"Ah? Me?" Brother Huan felt that he should refuse, but he didn't want to refuse.

He has also been on that dragon-like train, and has seen trains entering and exiting the train station many times, but the monster car in front of him is different, different from the carriage, and different from the train. It is full of complicated mechanisms inside. Just relying on these organs, the demon car can run steadily and steadily.

"Come on." Cub Claw opened the car door and waved to Brother Huan, "Come up and try."

"Okay." Brother Huan didn't care about anything else, and hurried in.

The demon car looks small, but the space inside is not small at all.

"Tie this strap..." Cub Claw pulled out a strap and helped Brother Huan fix it, saying, "This is just in case."

"How do you feel?" Black and White Cub asked, "I'm going to start the demon car!"

Brother Huan held his breath, his body was stiff, and he dared not move.

He heard the sound of gears rubbing and rotating in the monster car, and then the whole monster car started to run forward with a slight sway. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Yan Xun flashing past the glass window, and saw Yan Xun flashing past the glass window. Dad, and those stewards who came to greet Yan Xun, he also saw several dao soldiers who were stunned.

The road ahead is very flat, there are no rails, and the demon car runs steadily on it, and can turn corners easily.

"The wheel is still a problem. Just like the iron donkey, I can only make the wheel. If the quantity is small, it will be fine. If there is a large quantity, it will definitely not work." Bouncing Cub touched his chin and said, "If the wheels are replaced by wood, there is no need to reduce them. The shock effect will not only make people sit in it, but it will also be bad for the parts.”

"Brother Huan, what do you think?" Cub Bouncing talked to the other cubs for a while, then asked Brother Huan again.

"Huh?" Brother Huan shook his head, "I don't feel anything, it seems... I've arrived in the blink of an eye?"

Outside the glass window is the familiar train station, and on the other side is a huge square.

The demon car was slightly hot from the sun, and brother Huan was sweating, but he didn't want to go out because it felt so amazing to sit in the demon car.How could the cubs build such a monster car? It was so inconceivable that he couldn't imagine that such an iron lump could run away from the rails.

"Do you feel uncomfortable?" The flower tree cub asked.

"No, I feel very comfortable." Brother Huan said.

"That's good." Seeing Brother Huan's doubts, the flower tree cub explained, "Some people feel dizzy and nauseous when riding in a demon car, and some will vomit, because they are not used to the demon car by nature."

"I don't get used to demon carriages, is it because I don't adapt to horse carriages?" Brother Huan suddenly remembered that he had seen such a person, every time he took a carriage, it seemed to kill him, and he had also seen a doctor, but he didn't use.

The flower tree cub nodded, "Some people are not born suitable for riding in a carriage, but that's just natural, just like some people are tall and some are short, it's not a disease."

Meeting many people at the train station, Yan Xun directly asked Jing Fengye to push the wheelchair to Daying in the border town.

Brother Dan ran beside the wheelchair with Dan Honghong, and said to Dan Honghong, "Dan Honghong, you haven't been to the border town camp yet, you should take a good look this time."

"En." Dan Honghong nodded vigorously, and then asked, "Brother, is General Yang easy to get along with?"

"It's easy to get along with, but General Yang is a great general after all, and his position is different from ours." Brother Dan said angrily, "When I have time later, I will take you to the outer city wall to find General Yang. He is not a great general, although The positions are different, but the relationship with us is very good."

"Understood." Dan Honghong nodded hastily.

Although Yang Shuning and Yang Qiong are father and son, the extremely subtle and unchangeable things make the father and son have to stand in different positions.

Yang Shuning has been on guard against Yan Xun and the cubs from beginning to end, but he has never been hostile to Yan Xun and the cubs. He will never become Yan Xun's ally and helper, but he will never make trouble; Different, he stood on Yan Xun's side from beginning to end and never wavered.

When they arrived at the gate of Daying, the Taoist guards hurriedly opened the door, glanced at Brother Dan and Dan Honghong, and said nothing.

Although they have never seen Dan Honghong, they have all seen Brother Dan, and after looking at Dan Honghong who looks like Brother Dan and has at least [-]% similarity to Yan Xun in his eyebrows and eyes, he knows who he is without thinking.

"Brother, this is the camp in the border town." Brother Dan leaned closer to Dan Honghong's ear and whispered, "The general's camp is inside... There is our horse farm on the other side of the camp, and there are many ants and marching monsters in it. Take you to see."

"En." Dan Honghong stared at everything around her with wide eyes.

The border town and the seaside of the capital city are actually similar. They both have wide and flat concrete roads and clean concrete buildings. There are oil lamps on the main cement roads, and they will be lit at night.However, there are more demon lamps here in the border town, and the most lit ones at night are also demon lamps.

However, the camp in the border town is different from all other places, and it is also different from the camp stationed by the sea. There are endless tents everywhere, and there is no concrete floor under your feet. Dao Bing, there are pots of bonfire ashes on the side of the road, and there are demon lamps erected high.

No matter what time it is, camps can be pulled out, changed at any time, and troops can be deployed at any time.

This is the border city camp, always ready to face the demon country, even if the demon country is temporarily inactive, it has never relaxed.

All the Taoist soldiers standing guard were full of energy, staring ahead with piercing eyes; the patrolling Taoist soldiers still wore the heavy armor that they would only wear on the battlefield, and passed by slowly with neat and extremely heavy steps.

They are silent, like sharpened guns, just standing there, ready to rush to the battlefield at any time.

This is the border town camp, a border town camp that is different from all places.

It was the first time I saw Dan Honghong, he followed Brother Dan closely, and trotted all the way into the general's tent, looked around curiously, and found that even the big tent used by the general was similar to the big tent outside, Ordinary, no difference.

"Lord Yan, please stay safe." Yang Shuning cupped his hands at Yan Xun.

"General Yang." Yan Xun hurriedly cupped his hands.

Brother Dan took Dan Honghong's little paw, ran to stand beside Yan Xun's wheelchair, and whispered, "Let's just listen."

"Brother, are there any monsters outside the outer city wall now? Didn't the demon kingdom cease war with us, Great Qin, and even send envoys from the demon kingdom to communicate with each other. Besides, brothers..." Dan Honghong whispered, "Brothers don't you?" They are all cubs sent by the demon country as hostages."

"The demon country has always been uneasy and kind." Brother Dan said in an old-fashioned way, "Even if you send my brothers as hostages, even if you send envoys from the demon country, the monsters will still attack the city, but there are very few big monsters attacking the city. , Last year, only the Grasshopper, which was comparable to the great demon, attacked the city."

"What about this year?" Dan Honghong asked in a low voice.

Brother Egg shook his head lightly.

The frontier city directly faces the demon country, and is the first line of defense to guard the Great Qin. As long as there are monsters attacking the city, the frontier city will bear the brunt.

But the demon country has never really fulfilled its promise, even if it did not send a big monster to attack the city, there were several groups of other monsters.

Yang Shuning said with a straight face: "I'm lucky this year. The Iron Claw Hyena and Guiyuan Bud Monster that were supposed to attack the city have not yet appeared, and they are much more stable than in previous years. But the more this is the case, the more we cannot take our guard lightly. Tiger The Demon King can never be underestimated, nor can he believe in any of his goodness!"

"Tomorrow, I will go to explore the demon country." Yan Xun stroked his chin and said, "It would be fine if the iron-clawed hyena still attacked the city like in previous years, but now that the demon country is so abnormal, I don't know what is sold in the gourd. medicine."

"Thank you." Yang Shuning cupped his hands at Yan Xun.

Without the iron-clawed hyena monster attacking the city, there would not be enough green cotton cloth to use. Now even Yan Xun almost has no green cotton cloth in his hands, and it is completely stretched.

"No problem." Yan Xun waved at Yang Shuning, and left with the two cubs.

After leaving the camp in the border town, stepping on the wide concrete road outside, Egg Hong ran to the front and asked, "Father, I think General Yang is waiting for us to explore the Demon Kingdom, why doesn't he go by himself?"

These days Yan Xun has been in the capital all the time. If Yang Shuning is really worried, he can take his troops to the demon country to explore, not to mention that there is an underground railway that has been repaired outside the outer city wall. Isn't the demon country more than one bird?

"General Yang wants to sit in the border town, so he can't move easily. No matter how advanced the Taoist soldiers are, they are still human beings. Without the good medicine we give, their going to the demon country will always have irreversible effects." Yan Xun said softly, "The father who shakes the mountain is because he often visits the demon kingdom..."

"But General Yang doesn't fully trust us." Dan Honghong was a little unhappy.

When he broke his shell in the capital, his brothers loved him very much, and Wang Zhen'er and others completely trusted the cubs, and everyone else they saw was also very kind to the cubs, not like Yang Shuning, who was on the defensive He said while asking the cubs to do things.

The little cub has never seen this kind of person since he broke his shell, not only can't understand, he even thinks he shouldn't treat Yang Shuning so well.

"Daddy said that people are mutual." Dan Honghong said unhappy.

"You are right." Yan Xun picked up the egg Honghong and held it in his palm, and said earnestly, "But some things have to be judged according to the situation, just like General Yang, he can only do this, otherwise he will not be able to guard safely. You can no longer be an upright general in the border town."

"But...how does General Yang have anything to do with us? Why should we accommodate him?" Dan Honghong still didn't understand.

What the little cub said was taken for granted, but he really didn't understand it.

Brother Dan also had a thoughtful look on his face.

"Hey." Yan Xun sighed, "If I could, I would naturally not want to accommodate him."

"I understand." Brother Dan suddenly said, "My brother is different from us, that's why he thinks this way. If my brother was born earlier, he wouldn't have such thoughts."

"That's right." Yan Xun put Dan Honghong on the ground, and said to Dan Honghong, "You can tell Dan Honghong."

Brother Dan nodded hurriedly, pulled Dan Honghong and ran forward, saying, "Brother, you have never experienced many things, so your thoughts are different from ours. But you are right, things change in the future, wait until the future , we will not continue to help General Yang, and I am afraid that General Yang will not dare to ask us to help by then."

When Brother Dan broke his shell, he happened to catch up with Yan Xun and was taken away. The cubs searched for someone from thousands of miles away. At that time, the people of Daqin knew that the cubs had achieved the fame of scholar, only then did they know that the cubs were talented in learning, and only then did they know that the cubs were talented. Although the cubs are monsters, they are no different from ordinary people.

But all the people who see the cubs will respectfully call them "little scholar".

However, even so, there are still people who dislike Yan Xun and the cubs, and even do evil, otherwise Yan Xun would not be taken away.

Some people agree with the existence of the cubs, and some don't.

Moreover, Brother Dan had to face Krusi and West Wind who were chasing after him, and even more so, he had to protect the war rabbit cubs at that time, and he had to delay time until other cubs came to support him.

"At that time, my brothers and I could go for a walk on the street, but some people were still afraid of us. They thought I had a bunch of green hair on my head, which looked weird. They thought I was small, different from ordinary people, and even weirder. "Brother Dan took Dan Honghong's little paw, da da da ran to a clean stone, and sat side by side, "My brothers and I thought at that time, it would be great if they could all agree with us , at least you can’t be hostile to us.”

"Although what other people do has nothing to do with ourselves, the feeling of not being recognized, being hostile and being guarded is really uncomfortable."

"My brothers have done a lot of things, and gradually made many friends."

It has not been easy for the little cubs to come all the way, and after all, they are just cubs.

"Brother, isn't life more difficult when our elder brother breaks his shell?" Dan Honghong hurriedly asked.

Brother Dan nodded.

When the baby broke its shell, he was not yet born, but all the cubs back then had experienced it and told him about it.

"In order to protect Xiaodan, Dad found him a master." Brother Dan whispered, "Peking University is jealous of evil, and he can solve cases like a god. He is the emperor's confidant. Looking around, the only people in the capital are Peking University. Can protect the little egg."

"My brothers told me, but my father was very worried that Peking University would look down on Xiao Dan and would not agree to accept him as a disciple. For this, my father prepared a lot, and even planned to visit the house, begging Peking University for help."

"Peking University has a kind heart and is not as vicious as it looks. It's just that our elder brother is a monster cub after all, and at that time Dad didn't have so many workshops, and he didn't make a lot of money, so he didn't have that much ability to protect him. elder brother."

Dan Honghong held her breath nervously.

When the baby broke the shell back then, it was completely different from his broken shell. He broke the shell and everyone was looking forward to it. No one thought he was a monster cub and would be hostile to him, and no one would treat him specially just because he was a monster cub. So it is very ordinary to break the shell, and it is very ordinary to come into the world.

But Baobao is Yan Xun's first child, the first monster cub in his wild history who has a definite relationship with Yan Xun, and I don't know how many people are staring at him, ready to make a fuss.

Fortunately, everything went well, and Bei Qi agreed to take Bao Bao as his apprentice and escort him.

"If there were no Peking University masters, our brother would not know how much pressure we would have to face." Brother Dan said with his face in his hands, "Fortunately, the Peking University masters accepted our brother as a disciple and took him to Dali Temple, and our brother helped the Peking University masters Find out many old unjust and wrong cases.”

So now the baby almost lives in Dali Temple, rarely leaves the capital, and even more rarely leaves Bei Qi's side.

Coupled with Shen Qianyin's incident, Bei Qi would not let the baby investigate the case alone, and he had to follow him to be at ease.

"Brother is very lucky." Dan Honghong said while clenching her fists.

"Peking University is kind. He knows that father and brothers are not bad people, and he also knows that brother is not a bad person." Brother Dan turned his head to look at Dan Honghong, and asked in a low voice, "Brother, can you understand those things now?"

"General Yang also has difficulties, and he will never be our ally, but we have to cooperate with him."

"Nowadays are completely different from before. Back then, my brother needed the protection of Peking University, but I didn't need it, and you didn't need it."

"The days to come will get better and better. Who can say what the future will look like?"

Listening to what Brother Dan said, Dan Honghong said seriously: "I know everything!"

Now he can be expected by all, and he can go to the capital with his brothers without any preparation, come to the border town, and see everyone without any scruples. Road, that's because Baobao and Brother Dan were waving the flag and shouting in front, attracting so many people who like cubs.

"Brother, I'll take you to see Dahei." Brother Dan said enthusiastically, "There are many, many marching ants, each one is very big, and they run very fast."

"Okay." Dan Honghong hurriedly agreed, and ran forward with Brother Dan.

The vicissitudes of the outer city wall seem to remain unchanged from ancient times. No matter how many times he visits it, Yan Xun can't see any changes.

The towering stone steps were full of scars, but they were extremely tough. No matter how hard they tried to pry them, the stones on the outer city wall would not change in the slightest.

The sky above the outer city wall seemed to be cut in half by a knife. The demon country always felt a little unusual, but I couldn't see anything if I looked at it with my eyes.

"It's coming again." Yan Xun raised his face to look at the towering outer city wall and the sky above his head.

Yang Qiong hurried down the stone steps, cupped her hands at Yan Xun and said, "Master Yan, what's wrong with your leg?"

He heard that Yan Xun was sitting in a wheelchair, so he hurried down from the outer city wall.

"It's nothing, it's just self-cultivation." Seeing Yang Qiong's expression of disbelief, Yan Xun said helplessly, "I've said this many times, but few people believe it. I'm really fine. They always tell me not to stand if I can sit, and it’s better to eat and sleep every day, and feed them for two or three months, and it’s better to be like a pig, that’s the best.”

"What kind of cure is this?" Yang Qiong naturally didn't believe what Yan Xun said, but he was not a doctor, but he couldn't see anything wrong with Yan Xun with his eyes.

"Don't you believe Mr. Huo's words?" Yan Xun couldn't help laughing, "Be careful, Mr. Huo knows and won't see a doctor for you."

Yang Qiong hurriedly said: "Don't dare, dare not. Mr. Huo is a genius doctor, so what he said is naturally correct."

"That's about the same." Yan Xun changed the subject and asked, "Is there any movement in Yao Kingdom recently?"

Yang Qiong put away her hippie smile and said seriously: "There is no movement, it is so peaceful. Even the growing beauty lizards have disappeared, and I haven't caught a single one these days..."

There is a branch at the entrance of the underground railway outside the outer city wall, and several glass windows are specially installed inside, specially used to catch the growing beauty lizard.

Usually, you can catch as many beauty lizards as you want, but I don’t know when it started, but one of them disappeared.

Yao Nation is unusually peaceful.

"It's definitely not because the strength of the border town has increased." Yan Xun said in a deep voice, "Up to now, no real big monster has made a move, and the Tiger Demon King can't just stop here! Is there any movement at the Demon Observation Tower? How about the marching ants? "

"The ant marching demon has never appeared." Yang Qiong said, "I suspect that the demon kingdom has some kind of conspiracy."

"Since the outer city wall was erected and the border town was established, the demon country has not been peaceful for so long." Yan Xun mused, "I will ask the cubs to send a few more cannons up. Tomorrow I will go out of the outer city wall and go to the barren hills first. , go to another place to look."

Now Daqin has five princes, and Heizi who looks like a big monster, it is no longer safe, even if Yan Xun came to the border town, he always has a subconscious sense of urgency, making him want to figure out these things as soon as possible.
