After being forced to marry the Demon King, she usurped the throne by relying on the infrastructure

Chapter 39 39. The Demon King's Knowledge (including Gagen)

...

Zhongshang suddenly said: "Just listening to our words is far from feeling the shock of the changes in Black Dragon City."

Lou Yan put away his complicated mood.

"Lead the way ahead."

If it was just the tip of the iceberg before, after seeing the well-planned streets and the roads paved with unknown materials, Lou Yan was only shocked.

But it's not over yet.

"Why are the streets so deserted?" It was like an empty city.

Zhongshang replied: "The demons in the city are all training together in order to have a hunting team after the spring."

Lou Yan nodded to show that he understood.

After strolling around the city, Lou Yan gradually calmed down, and instead wondered how the little wife came to be able to break the century-old dilemma left by Black Dragon City.

But it is obvious that what the little wife brought out must have a chance.In any case, what she did was completely beneficial to Black Dragon City.Even if he had doubts, he would not go to her and question her.

He wants to find out for himself.

"This is the Metropolitan Procuratorate you speak of?"

In the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Meng Qiu and Lin Zhong's expressions suddenly changed, and they quickly came out to meet the Demon King.

"you are back!"

Meng Qiu and Lin Zhong were very excited. The last time they saw the Demon King was in the cold winter of last year. They stood in the front row and looked up at the Demon King's back once.

This time, he was able to face the devil face to face.

Lou Yan said lightly: "You are the original guard captains, right?"

They didn't expect Wang to remember.

"Yes, this subordinate was the captain of the guard before, and he was honored to be appreciated by Master Teng Snake."

Lin Zhong also reported his identity, he is the vice-captain.

"Since the queen has arranged official duties for you, you must take it seriously. The queen's order is my order."

Meng Qiu originally thought that the king would question them, but he came to admit his and Lin Zhong's identities. The two loyal subordinates immediately swore to be loyal to the queen to the death.

"Remember your oath today." After Lou Yan beat them, they didn't stop any longer, and continued to the next place.

Meng Qiu and Lin Zhong knelt on one knee and watched the Demon King leave.

Starting today, his and Lin Zhong's identities have been personally recognized by the Demon King and Queen, and they will definitely assist the Queen in managing Black Dragon City!

Lou Yan accidentally caught a glimpse of a group of children playing around a stone tablet.

"What is that stele for?"

Zhongshang smiled and said, "This is a gift from you to Her Royal Highness the Queen."

He remembered that he did leave behind a beautiful spirit stone before he left. He thought it should be very popular with women, so he kept it, and didn't pay attention to what it was.

He never gave anyone a gift, but the males of the Qingluan tribe had to give gifts when they chased the females, and he kept it in mind when he beat them up a lot.

However, he kept the spirit stone because it was valuable and could be used as a token in the mortal world.

The old guy from the Xuanwu tribe had a heartache when he took it out. He could use it as a token.

Just a spirit stone can be so big?

He remembered correctly that it should have been placed in a box, only half the size of his fist.

He saw the moving picture on the stele.

"This is...the Photo Stone?" He had too many trophies, and finally remembered that the spirit stone he gave away was the Photo Stone.

No matter how precious the things that have been given away are, they will not regret it, but Lou Hao is puzzled.

He knows the function of the photo stone, but the recorded scene needs to be activated by magic power.

Apart from him, only a few subordinates in the palace can use magic power in the entire Black Dragon City.

And they are not here at this time, who is supporting this picture stone?

Zhongshang didn't know how complicated it was, but he happily introduced: "This place is called the open-air screening platform, and it is also a monument that symbolizes the love between you and Her Royal Highness the Queen."

Lou Yan:?
He suppressed his curiosity: "How to say?"

So Zhongshang told the story of the love between the devil king and queen in the mouth of the devil people in the city.

Even if the devil in their story went away on the second day of their wedding.

However, love stories have been extremely popular since ancient times, regardless of race and nationality.I don't know who said it first, and then there is the final version.

The photo stone is the token of love between the king and queen.They fell in love at first sight in the world, so the queen married the demon clan without hesitation. The king was moved by the queen's dedication, and gave the most precious photo stone in the entire Sky Continent to his newlywed wife.In order to commemorate the relationship with the king, the queen used the photo stone to record the life of the demon people in Black Dragon City.

If Yin Jixue heard this story, she would definitely pick out all the loopholes, such as the unreasonable encounter at the beginning.

However, this story was passed down from word to mouth, and moved the adult demon people in the whole city.The hearts of countless single witches are surging, longing to meet a romantic sweetheart like Wang.

"Where did this story come from?" Lou Yan couldn't help wondering, would the little wife really fall in love with him at first sight?

He also thought that she loves his face very much. Doesn't it mean that she valued his face when she fell in love at first sight!
Zhongshang thought for a while: "It was made up by word of mouth. Because of this story, the female devil in the city wanted to get married, so we didn't stop it."

At the same time, they did not report it, because they also liked to hear it.

Therefore, Yin Jixue, as the protagonist of the story, has no idea what the demons in the city imagined when they were free.

Lou Yan's ears twitched when he heard the second half of the sentence, the birth rate of the Black Dragon Clan has been at the bottom for hundreds of years.

The combined number of marriages and children in all the cities of the Black Dragon Clan is less than that of Xuanwu City in a year.

One can imagine how miserable the Black Dragon Clan is.

The reason is that the conditions of the Black Dragon Clan are too harsh.Childbirth means that a large amount of food reserves are required, and the time of childbirth cannot be in winter, and there is no clean medical environment, so the childbirth mortality rate is very high.

But as long as the children who can be born live and grow up, they will be more talented than their parents.

It is natural selection.

With this premise, many demon people of the Black Dragon Clan are big and small families, and demons who have never been related to each other form a family without children.

So when Lou Yan heard that the single female demon was willing to get married, he agreed with Zhongshang's approach.

If the love story can make the female devil get married, he can go to the Qingluan clan to copy a few back.

Back to the topic, when Lou Yan saw the so-called open-air projection platform, he could tell at a glance that it was not the photo stone he gave, but there were traces of the photo stone.

He didn't get close, and he could see clearly from 20 meters away.

The content of the picture played by the projection station is the final exam of the literacy class.

Zhongshang forgot to talk about the literacy class, so he just took this time to explain.

Lou Yan was surprised and said, "You mean, she taught every city citizen to read? The demon people outside the city can also come to read?"

"Her Majesty's original words are that as long as you want to learn how to read, you can come." Later, except for a few very old students who couldn't keep up with the progress of the literacy class, no one who came to the first class was absent.

The queen said that classes for the elderly will be opened in the future, and the elderly demons who can't keep up with the class can skip the literacy class first, which relieves the pressure of insufficient classroom seats.

If Lou Yan's actions towards Yin Jixue were just gratitude and curiosity at the beginning, then now he can't help admiring her in his heart and is convinced.

He didn't think Yin Jixue's decision was idealized, but he agreed with her approach from the bottom of his heart.

There are not many demons in Black Dragon City, and civilization is the only thing that cannot be left behind if they want to develop rapidly.

He has been to the main cities of the other three tribes, as well as some unknown small tribes. They already have a clear hierarchy, and knowledge is monopolized by the rulers. Ordinary demons and slaves are not qualified to acquire knowledge, and So most of them are ignorant and narrow-minded.

This kind of development and wealth is the enjoyment of the upper demons, and the suffering of the lower demons.

His people shared weal and woe with him, and they never complained when they were born in Black Dragon City. Everyone firmly believed that Black Dragon City would get better one day.They believed in him, which allowed Lou Yan to travel far without any worries, looking for a solution.

So to make his people stupid and ignorant, first of all he doesn't agree.

And the idea of ​​the little wife is like-minded with him, which makes him somewhat happy.

"This is the final exam you said? What's the use?"

Zhongshang talked about the necessity of the final exam proposed by the queen, and Lou Yan nodded thoughtfully.

He really wanted to see how his little wife's head grew, and why the ideas she put forward could be novel and practical.

What attracted his attention was still the test papers on the desk.

"Papermaking? No one will believe it if you tell it. This is actually something made by mortals."

Zhongshang nodded in agreement: "Yes, it's nothing more than an ingenious workmanship. This thin writing instrument can be made with only bark and bamboo."

"Do you know how to make it?"

Zhongshang: "The queen specially demonstrated it before."

After complimenting his little wife, he discovered the problem. How could such an important thing be spread out at will!Couldn't she have a little more heart? !
Feeling that the king was in a bad mood, Zhongshang hurriedly made amends: "There is a paper mill and a printing factory in the city, and Her Highness the Queen entrusted them with full authority to produce."

Lou Yan's inexplicable mood was interrupted by a sentence.

After walking around the city, Zhongshang took Wang to the outside of the city.

He said with emotion: "The military training should not be over yet. Even if Chengnian Demon doesn't join the hunting team, he still has to train the blood of our Black Dragon Clan. Finally, this day has come."

"Yeah, it's time." It was entirely his luck, and the changes in Black Dragon City had nothing to do with him.

They deliberately bypassed the place of military training.

Although there are no paved roads outside the city, the dormitory buildings are built on flat ground, and there is a flat and smooth concrete floor in front of each house.

Zhongshang pointed in the direction of the cafeteria: "The place where the smoke is coming out is the cafeteria. The earliest No. [-] and No. [-] cafeterias in Black Dragon City are dedicated to supplying meals for the mine."

"Where is the magic crystal mine?"

He has stayed in Black Dragon City for so many years, and he never knew that there was a magic crystal mine in Black Dragon City.

Zhongshang pointed in the direction, only for Lou Yan to sense it.

"This magic crystal mine is quite deep, and you can only feel it when you go ten meters underground."

This is because of the entrance of the cave, otherwise, unless there is an earthquake in Black Dragon City and the magic energy leaks, who would have thought that there is a magic crystal mine 50 meters underground.

Halfway through, Zhongshang suddenly remembered: "By the way, Heilongkou came to ask for help this winter. The queen took in the old, weak, women and children they sent, and lived in the last building."

Dormitories are assigned in order of occupancy.

Lou Yan: "What about their food?"

Zhongshang's tone was brisk: "Give them both heating and food, the same treatment as our demon people."

Lou Yan had some doubts: "The food in Black Dragon City is enough?"

Zhongshang guessed that Wang hadn't seen Tiantao yet, so he led the way to the cafeteria.

Lina, who cooks in the cafeteria, knows Zhongshang, and she hasn't met the devil yet.

"Bring me two sweet potatoes."

Although Zhongshang is a teacher, he is also a member of the palace.

Lina didn't say much, and brought two bowls of steaming food, one for each.

"This is our food. The last harvest was two months ago, and there will be another batch next month."

He remembered that the scorched earth could grow sweet taro and he hadn't told the devil yet, the queen had made too many contributions to Black Dragon City.

Yin Jixue's ears were hot: "It's strange, could it be that someone is speaking ill of me behind my back?"

First rule out the demon people, it must be the demon king!

Today the Demon King wore a formal suit, Yin Jixue thought about it and didn't dress too casually.

As soon as she went out, Fengxiu, Ruoshui, Tengshe and Gouchen were all outside the door, scaring her.

She made up her mind: "What's the matter, don't you go shopping around with Wang?"

Teng Snake spoke first: "Without the king's call, we cannot appear in front of him at will."

Ruoshui worried: "Your Highness, are you feeling unwell?"

Yin Jixue felt inexplicable: "No, what happened?"

Ruoshui bit her lower lip, Feng Xiu lowered her head: "It's about your neck, I told her."

Yin Jixue waved her hand: "It's a big deal, it's an accidental injury, your king won't abuse me on purpose."

After Yin Jixue repeatedly assured that she was not intentionally hurt by the Demon King, Teng She and Gou Chen withdrew.

"Your Highness, I'm so worried about you." If it wasn't for the scarf on Yin Jixue's neck, she really wanted to know if there were any marks left on her neck.

Yin Jixue had no choice but to comfort her: "It's okay, he apologized to me last night. I looked in the mirror in the morning and there was no trace left. What are you all doing standing at the door?"

Feng Xiu heaved a sigh of relief, and followed Yin Jixue:

"Originally we thought that if the king really hurt you, we would take turns to compete with him to avenge you."

Yin Jixue tentatively asked, "Do you take turns fighting each other or four against one?"

Feng Xiu blushed: "We can't catch Wang's move with four strikes."

She patted Feng Xiu on the shoulder: "I appreciate this kindness, but he is your king, and he doesn't need to do this for me."

She is doing it for the sake of Fengxiu.That is to say, the Demon King is a magnanimous superior, but if he changes another person, Feng Xiu will definitely be labeled as a master-killer, at least punished, and even expelled and killed.

Feng Xiu was silent, Yin Jixue took it as her acquiescence.

When I came to the school, I learned that the devil and Mr. Zhongshang went out together.

Yin Jixue cheered herself up to calm down, don't be nervous, if she disliked her assertion, she would definitely come back and scold her immediately.

There is only one possibility if I haven't come back now, lingering or not getting enough.

She came here today to take advantage of the holiday to study the culture and history of the Demon Race.I have to go to cram school during the holidays. I dare to ask if there is a queen who is worse than her.

However, she looked at it for about 10 minutes, and finally couldn't help putting down the bamboo slips.

"The characters are too small, and it makes me dizzy."

In order to engrave as many characters as possible on the bamboo slips, the writing is almost densely packed, and the characters are next to each other.

She plans to make pencils as soon as possible, not to mention the troubles that come with writing brushes, and if she accidentally writes a wrong word, the whole sheet of paper will be ruined.

Pencils allow paper to be reused and the writing speed can be improved a lot.

　Secretly update and amaze everyone.

　　The main cities of the four major demon clans are all named after races.

　　That's why the Xuanwu clan and Xuanwu city appear alternately, which means two things.

　　I'm so sleepy, I will correct the typo tomorrow, good night!
