Cub Nursery

"My lord, is there still a mountain behind the mountain?" The snake-body cub quickly swam over and asked curiously, "They don't even know about the little stone. I asked, and there was a mountain a long, long time ago."

"It's possible." Yan Xun said.

"Then will there be water?" The snake-body cub suddenly remembered, "In the stories the adults told, there is boundless water, which is still salty. Maybe there is so much water behind the mountain."

"It's also possible." Yan Xun nodded.

The people in the workshop are talking about this matter, they, like Xiao Shitou, have already felt that Yan Xun is omnipotent, even if there is danger behind the mountain, there is nothing to worry about.

Because their current good life was brought by Yan Xun, now Yan Xun wants to take them to face the unknown, so face it.

Because everyone trusts Yan Xun, no one feels afraid.

"My lord, do you really want to open a mountain?" Du Qinsheng only knew about it after hearing the men working in the cement workshop, and hurried to Yan Xun to ask, "My lord, that mountain cannot be opened. Yesterday there was a loud noise It’s loud, but the monsters in the mountains are causing trouble?”

"We made the noise." The flame cub just passed by and heard it, so he said.

Du Qinsheng was even more frightened, "My lord, the mountain must not be opened."

"What do you know?" Seeing that Du Qinsheng was so persistent, Yan Xun asked if he felt something in his heart.

"My lord, I once heard my father say that there was no mountain there at first, but that mountain came into being after a general suppressed the monster." Du Qinsheng was a little confused about whether to say what he had in mind, and thought for a while , I just broke my heart and said, "That was a big event hundreds of years ago, maybe my lord didn't know..."

Not only Yan Xun didn't know, even most of the wealthy families in the capital didn't know. As for the man in the palace who knew clearly, Yan Xun felt that he probably didn't know too well, otherwise he wouldn't have agreed to build the bridge.

That night, Du Xuanfeng dressed up as a servant, followed the tofu-carrying carriage across the bridge, and came to Yan Xun's side.

The kang was burning hot, oil lamps were lit in the small room, and the cubs prepared tea and snacks early.

The window was opened with a small slit for ventilation, and the rich scent of sweet-scented osmanthus floated in, mixed with the scent of tea, which was very pleasant.

"Please sit down." Yan Xun smiled.

"My lord." Du Xuanfeng hurriedly got on the kang, exhaled a cold breath and said, "I would like to thank you for taking care of the dog. I thank you here." As he said, Du Xuanfeng hurriedly took out the things he brought, which were full of precious medicinal materials, hundreds of years old. Chinese ginseng and Shouwu, etc., are not low in value.

"You're welcome." Yan Xun accepted these precious things.

At the beginning, the original body rashly went to Honglu Temple because of Du Qinsheng, but he was scared to death. No matter how generous Yan Xun was, he would never become friends with Du Qinsheng. Now he is forced to work, and it is fine if he is not paid.

But Du Xuanfeng is also a good person, although he is not very capable, he is very accurate in judging people, now that he is taking the initiative to lower his posture, Yan Xun is also happy to relax.

The cubs sat in a row behind Yan Xun, all looking at Du Xuanfeng curiously.

Du Xuanfeng also looked at them curiously, these are the cubs from the demon country, all of them are monsters.

At this time, the cubs were all wearing clothes. Under the oil lamp, it could be seen that their appearance was different from that of ordinary children, but their eyes were no different from those of children, even more vivid.

Thinking that it was these little cubs who made the iron donkey, and even cured Brother Liu's illness. I heard that the tofu was also made by one of the cubs, so it is different from the plaster tofu outside.The same is true for burning cement, and the concrete buildings here are all built because of these little cubs.

I have to admit that these little cubs have achieved many impossible things under Yan Xun's hands.

Du Xuanfeng hurriedly took out the gifts for the cubs again, regardless of how he thought about these cubs before, at least now he dare not have any hostility, unless he will never touch the things made by the cubs.

The little cubs thanked them, and sat obediently behind Yan Xun, looking at Du Xuanfeng curiously.

"My lord." Jing Fengye also received the gift, and he put it aside casually, reminding him softly.

This Du Xuanfeng is indeed a fine person, everyone has been taken care of.

"I intend to open the mountain, but your son said it was wrong." Yan Xun regained his senses and said hastily.

Du Xuanfeng's eyes narrowed, he came here quietly tonight for this matter, "My lord, this matter must never be done. The stretch of mountains is not an obstacle, but the protection of our entire Great Qin! My ancestor was that general His subordinates saw the scene of the mountain rise with their own eyes, and the general also..."

Hundreds of years ago, all the monsters were extremely powerful, and the human race could only hide and run for their lives.

Fortunately, there is a general who knows the world and is unparalleled in Taoism. He can fight three or five big monsters by himself.Later, he chose the place where Daqin is now to allow the people to reproduce in peace, and even exhausted their lives to erect the last barrier, which is the seemingly inconspicuous mountain that actually hides mystery.

Hundreds of years have passed, and the number of people in Daqin has increased, and there have been many amazing and talented generals. Only then did they finally defeat the Yao Kingdom and win a victory.

It's just that the past is so long that many people don't know what happened back then. Even if Du Xuanfeng really said it, no one would believe it.

"My lord, this is absolutely unacceptable." Du Xuanfeng said.

"Why not?" Yan Xun asked back.

For hundreds of years, Daqin has also experienced a lot of ups and downs, so that now the royal family has lost such a secret, and even opened a river to exile some criminals.

"My lord, even if the emperor didn't know the truth of the year, he would never let him open the mountain." Du Xuanfeng said, he has no skills, and he can become a celebrity in front of the emperor just by flattering, relying on his understanding of the emperor.

Seeing that Yan Xun refused to nod his head, Du Xuanfeng continued, "Since my lord is still determined to go his own way, I will tell you what is in my heart, that... Shou Cheng..."

This sentence is already risking decapitation.

"How do you think the human race has developed over the years?" Yan Xun asked suddenly.

Hundreds of years ago, the human race drank blood, and Taoist soldiers killed demons wasting their lives. Now Taoist soldiers kill demons and waste their cultivation, and they can still win the demon kingdom. The cub sent by the tiger demon king seems to have foreshadowed The rise of the human race.

"Monsters can live for hundreds of thousands of years, what about people?" Seeing that Du Xuanfeng didn't speak, Yan Xun said slowly, "If one day, a big monster rushes over from the other side of the mountain, what should we do?"

"This..." Du Xuanfeng wanted to say it was impossible, but he couldn't say it.

At the beginning, the human race was chased and beaten by monsters, but then there were generals who left the entire human race with a breeding ground.For so many years, the monsters have been scattered, to condense into a monster country, and have always had the upper hand until they are defeated.

Who can guarantee that after many years, the human race will not be defeated?

But he was a little unwilling, so he looked at the cubs sitting behind Yan Xun.

These little guys have always been obedient, listening carefully to what they said about monsters, and they didn't seem angry or afraid; Du Xuanfeng looked at Jing Fengye again, and this adult monster was sitting silently beside Yan Xun, carefully arranging the oil lamp, so that The small room is brighter.

In the small room, there are people and monsters.

What he said was a shocking secret, and what he thought about was the future, but there was a strange sense of harmony.

Du Xuanfeng suddenly felt that apart from him, Yan Xun and those little cubs in this small room might not belong to Daqin, nor did they belong to Yao Kingdom, they were a brand new existence.

This discovery made Du Xuanfeng a little panicked, but at the same time he was a little lucky. Although he didn't belong to Yan Xun's group, his son was finally squeezed in.

"If my lord still wants to open the mountain, then I won't say anything, just don't let the capital know about it, otherwise my lord may not be able to open this mountain." Du Xuanfeng changed his words and no longer insisted on persuading Yan Xun.

"That's right." Yan Xun finally laughed and came out from Du Xuanfeng himself.

Apart from Xiao Shitou and others on this side of the bridge, only Du Xuanfeng would occasionally go to the other side of the bridge. The others, Mr. Huo and Brother Liu, hadn’t been out since they came here. Huhushengfeng, they trust Yan Xun even more than Xiaoshitou.

Sending Du Xuanfeng away, Yan Xun's face was not so relaxed.

"My lord, if there are monsters behind the mountain, let's see if they cannibalize or not. Kill the cannibals and keep the non-cannibals?" The snake-bodied cub rubbed against Yan Xun with its chubby face.

"Well, follow the law." Yan Xun nodded, "We have to think about it and make sure nothing goes wrong."

The little cubs instantly understood what Yan Xun meant, and quickly discussed it. The conclusion was that before opening the mountain, they should climb over the mountain to have a look.It happened that Yan Xun also had the same idea, so everyone hit it off.

That night, Yan Xun wrote a kit and handed it to the Taoist soldiers guarding the cubs.

On the second day, Yang Shuning went to court and directly handed the booklet to Yan Xun.

"Your Majesty, Yan Xun has gone too far. It is already very inappropriate to let him go around with the monster, but now he has to go even further and wants to take the monster into the mountain to collect medicine. Isn't this letting the tiger go back to the mountain!" Yang Shuning said very dissatisfied, "Your Majesty, this I'm afraid I won't be able to do the errand."

"Oh? That little flower wants to collect medicine?" The emperor was not angry, but asked about the cubs of the flower tree.

The flower tree cub is Huo Lao's apprentice, and now he not only cured Liu Ge'er, but also cured Ye Xianglang.

Now Dashan is still a night incense man, collecting night incense at night and occasionally coming out during the day, he must be surrounded by many people.Many people wanted to see the rumored extremely handsome Ye Xianglang, and also wanted to ask how he cured his illness.

There are also some brothers and sisters who haven't said they are close, and there is no one who doesn't blush when they see Dashan, and they are all very fond of it.

Every time people asked about it, Da Shan said happily: "Xiaohua and Mr. Huo cured me."

"Xiaohua's medical skills are really superb." Everyone was so emotional.

Mr. Huo has long been famous in the capital, and Xiao Hua cured Liu Ge'er and Ye Xianglang who could not be cured.At this time, even the emperor couldn't help talking about Xiao Hua, he was curious about his ability, but also a little bit afraid, he didn't dare to use it, but Xiao Hua had high medical skills, so he had to use it, and he had to be coaxed.

"Exactly." Yang Shuning said unhappily.

"Forget it, if he wants to collect herbs, let him do what he wants." The emperor thought for a while, but didn't stop him.

After all, who can guarantee that he will not get sick, maybe he will have to beg Xiao Hua at any time.After all, his own life was at stake, when the emperor opened his mouth, all the civil and military ministers except Yang Shuning objected.

Yang Shuning still had a stinky face, wanting to quit the job.

The emperor saw that this was not going to work, so he said a few words of comfort.Yang Shuning will never get close to monsters, this is the guarantee the emperor wants, so it is impossible to transfer Yang Shuning away.

The Taoist soldiers were mighty, with Yang Shuning leading the way, riding a tall horse, looking down at Yan Xun.

The little cubs ran out, and the flower tree cub was at the back carrying a small medicine box, and Mr. Huo carefully told something.

Yan Xun stood at the front and cupped his hands towards Yang Shuning, "General Yang, please take care of me."

"Hmph." Yang Shuning cupped his hands casually, without saying a word with a cold face.

Go all the way to the foot of the mountain.

This side is very far away from the place where the gunpowder was experimented, and there is another dense forest.

The dense forest that no one could get through, now with the help of Taoist soldiers, everyone can easily pass through and come to the foot of the mountain.

"There are really herbs on this mountain?" Yang Shuning looked up at the endless mountain, frowned, glanced at a white-faced and beardless man next to him, and said coldly, "You don't want to take the opportunity to run away, do you? "

Upon hearing this, Fang Ziru hurriedly looked at Yan Xun and the cubs.

This time Yan Xun, Jing Fengye, and ten cubs came out together. Although there were more Dao soldiers, Fang Ziru, as the emperor's confidant, naturally couldn't let go of any doubts about what might happen.

Noticing Yang Shuning's gaze, Yan Xun asked with a smile, "Where are you going?"

"Go back to the demon country. Master Yan is quick thinking, who knows if he will run away suddenly, we can't even catch up with him." Yang Shuning said indifferently.

"How could it be..." Yan Xun shook his head and laughed, "If I really wanted to run away, I would definitely not go back to the demon country, or would I be eaten by the tiger demon king? I might go to the barbarians and demons, but I heard that I don’t even have a stutter, so I’m going to live a good life, but why don’t I go to suffer?”

"General Yang, I don't think Lord Yan has that kind of intention." Fang Ziru smoothed things out in a sly voice, "Let's take a rest and get ready to climb the mountain."

Speaking of barbarians and demons, even Fang Ziru didn't pay attention to them at all.

The little cubs immediately got busy.

There was firewood at the foot of the mountain. The black and white cub took out a piece of glass and adjusted it to the sun, and soon the firewood was lit.

A simple wooden frame tied with hemp rope hangs a thin iron pan, in which the snake cub gets water, boils it quickly, puts honey and flower petals, and pours it into a bowl that is also made of iron.

The little cub was held in both hands and presented to Yan Xun, "My lord, drink tea."

Yang Shuning also got a bowl, and he drank it quickly while frowning.

Seeing that both Yan Xun and Yang Shuning had drunk, Fang Ziru slowly finished the tea in the bowl.

The flower tree cub walked up to Fang Ziru and looked at it, and looked at Fang Ziru's eyelids for a while, "My lord, I'm asleep."

Except for Fang Ziru, the other Taoists around are Yang Shuning's confidantes.

In this way, I can finally say something.

"General Yang, let me make a long story short." Yan Xun quickly said what Du Xuanfeng said, and finally said, "General, it is not an option to keep going forever. How does the Great Qin know the situation of the demon country now? How many big monsters are there? I suggest we turn to Take a look at the mountain, even if there is danger, we can retreat completely, if there is no danger, then wouldn't we have an extra piece of land?"

Yang Shuning pondered for a moment, then said, "It's all according to what you said."

A few words are less than a cup of tea, and everyone is still acting just now.

The flower tree cub walked over, took out a silver needle, and pricked Fang Ziru's body.

"Huh?" Fang Ziru woke up in a daze, thinking that she had fallen asleep, and looked around again, only to find that she only blinked her eyes.

"Let's go." Yang Shuning said.

You can't ride a horse when you climb the mountain. All the horses are placed at the foot of the mountain, and other people climb up while opening the mountain road.

"My lord, I'll carry you on my back." Seeing that Yan Xun's hands and feet were going weak after taking a few steps, Jing Feng hurried to the front and squatted down.

"Okay." Yan Xun hurriedly agreed, overcoming the mountain was easier said than done, but Yan Xun found that he didn't have that much stamina.

The dense forest that no one could pass through has now passed through, and the mountain has successfully reached the top of the mountain.

On the other side of the mountain, it was barren.

"My lord, my lord." The snake-bodied cub curled up the binoculars with the tip of its tail, and said excitedly after watching it, "My lord, I guessed right, I guessed right."

"The blue water is beautiful."

"My lord, isn't that kind of water just salty?"

The little cubs were talking in a hurry, not nervous at all.

Yang Shuning also looked through the binoculars with a serious expression on his face.

"What's there in the distance?" Fang Ziru was very anxious. He didn't have a telescope, and he couldn't use it if he took it, so he could only ask the Taoist soldiers beside him.

"Water, a lot of water." Dao Bing said blankly.

"Don't get excited, we have to listen to General Yang's arrangement." Yan Xun comforted the cubs, "The soil on this side of the mountain has not changed much, but there must be a reason for the lack of vegetation!"

The little cubs quieted down and looked at Yang Shuning quietly.

Yang Shuning stared, "Wait a minute!"

The cubs immediately showed fearful expressions, and when they turned their backs to Fang Ziroom, they became excited again and discussed the reason in a low voice.

The top of the mountain is relatively flat, and there is a big gentle slope, just for everyone to rest.

The little cubs took out many strange things, a strange glass bottle, pointed it at it with a magnifying glass for a while, and it burned, but there was no smoke.

A strange piece of stone was placed on the small iron frame, and a small iron pot was placed on it, and the water was boiled quickly, and tea was made.

"My lord, drink tea. What shall we eat later?" the cub Tantan asked obediently. He knew that the situation was unknown, so he could not light a fire for cooking, and could only eat the dry food he had brought.

"Don't worry." Yan Xun said, "Didn't we bring a lot of noodles, now we just have some tea and some noodles."

"En!" Bouncing Cub said, took out the noodles from the small bundle, and boiled a lot of tea.

The cubs also spread a piece of animal skin on the ground, sat cross-legged on it, drank hot tea, and ate noodles.

Fang Ziru also got some food, cheerful, looking at these little cubs is also very pleasing to the eye, only Yang Shuning still has a bad complexion, looking down the mountain with a very dignified expression.

The mountain that could not be climbed for many years climbed to the top of the mountain, and Yang Shuning had actually seen this scene of barren grass in other places.

It was this kind of place that he went to when he first went to the battlefield to kill monsters.

What they were facing was a group of extremely powerful monsters. They were extremely powerful and extremely fast. Only five Taoist soldiers could deal with one such monster.At that time, Yang Shuning was lucky, he was knocked unconscious by the flying stone at the beginning, and saved his life...

Only he survived that time, and all the other Taoist soldiers disappeared, just like the disappearing vegetation.

The same scene, just don't know if the monster is still there.
