Chapter 34
Li Xun was meeting with their twelve Xiao Immortal elders for the first time, and he found this place under the guidance of Qiao Poppy.
The place he came to today was a sparsely populated suburb, there was a crop field with dozens of acres of grain, and there seemed to be a lot of crops in the field, and even in a certain field, Li Xun saw a few rats in human form who were busy harvesting.
After waiting for a few minutes, a half-hundred-year-old man who seemed to have just finished his work walked in the direction of Li Xunzai from a distance.
They met on a pavilion-like platform at the edge of the farm, with chairs and tables on the platform, and tea and snacks on a small table.
The old man didn't look very old in his face, and he had just passed middle age.
Although his face does not look very big, his hair and eyebrows are all white, and he is wearing a coarse cloth clothes that are no different from those of modern peasants, and his body is also thin, and he looks like a lean old man in the countryside.
Li Xun glanced back at the fertile fields that could not be seen, and knew in his heart that he should be the owner of the crops here.
"Do you have something important to come to me?" Seeing that it was him, Yuan Sheng, who approached, was slightly surprised, he only heard from his subordinates just now that a guest came to the door, but he didn't know that it was the son of the sixth child.
Usually, the twelve of them don't have time to meet at all, and if they don't have something to call above, they will always meet when the two are handed over every year.
Li Xun first bowed to Yuansheng, and then said: "My nephew has come to discuss important matters" Although he is already Xiao Xian, Li Xun, who has just inherited the throne of the Snake King, obviously belongs to the younger generation.
"Talking" Yuan Sheng sat down at the table, leaned on the back of the chair and half-closed his eyes, and did not speak extraneously.
As mentioned earlier, they generally don't meet each other, but today the snake clan came to him, and Yuan Sheng couldn't figure out what was planned.
Seeing that his attitude was a little cold, Li Xun thought about what he was going to say, and spoke after half an instant, and his words went straight to the point: "Recently, I have a big grudge with Chu Yi of the cat clan, and I am planning to borrow your soul bead for use this time, and I will definitely return it in good condition after that" Li Xun was not verbose, and told him the origin and purpose of the matter in a simple sentence.
"Chu Yi?!" Hearing his name, Yuan Sheng's half-closed eyes opened directly, and his body left the back of the chair.
"Yes"
Yuan Sheng's face showed a little thought, and then there was an inexplicable smile in his eyes: "Hmph~, even you have to provoke him, how much resentment do you have?"
"Uncle didn't know, my people just foraged for food and slandered the two of them, they directly killed my subordinates, before I could ask for an explanation, then Chu Yi actually planned to put me to death, if it wasn't for a weasel clan to help, my nephew would probably be like my father for nine days now" Regarding the specific situation, Li Xun did not go into details, but only told him a little bit about the important things.
"It's just that if you inadvertently hurt their people, Chu Yi will put you to death?" Looking at him, Yun Sheng's eyes were obviously puzzled.
"Yes," Li Xun replied in a calm tone.
Yuan Sheng slowly stood up: "Chu Yi of the cat clan has traveled all year round, unless there is a major event in the clan, otherwise even their clansmen rarely see him, if he just accidentally injured his clansmen, he will chase him back and kill you, I don't believe it"
It's not that Yuan Sheng doesn't know to protect Li Xun, who is also Xiao Xian, but because of the special relationship between the cat and mouse clans, he is naturally familiar with the leader of the cat clan.
"Doesn't my uncle believe my nephew?"
"It's not that I don't believe it, it's just that I know his habits too well"
"So, my nephew just thought of using the soul bead to subdue him" After speaking, he secretly glanced at Yuan Sheng: "Besides... Because of the entanglement between the rat and cat clans, how many people have died in the rat clan for tens of thousands of years, doesn't my uncle want this grudge to be settled?"
Yuan Sheng's slightly vicissitudes of life always had a polite smile on his face, and after listening to Li Xun's words, there was no fluctuation at all: "Doesn't the snake also feed on rats" After speaking, he looked at him and continued: "This is the dispute between my father and the cat clan, and after such a long time, there is no need for me to do it again in the current survival situation of the rat clan in human beings."
Yuan Sheng's refusal was already obvious, but Li Xun didn't want to give up so easily, this was the first step in his plan, if there was the support of their Xiao Xian boss, then it would naturally be easier later.
"Uncle is a rat immortal who was ordered by the heavenly realm, so my nephew doesn't understand why he doesn't dare to move a mountain and wild goblin, let him have a profound Dao method, but he doesn't have any immortal name and immortal number in his body, even if he is removed, he doesn't have to worry about any blame on it, and he may not even know" Li Xun began to use the radical method, but he didn't know if it could play a role in this seemingly shrewd Yuan Sheng.
Yuan Sheng patiently listened to his arguments, picked up the small cup of sesame oil on the table and took a sip, and then said: "The cat clan does not have any immortal officials and priesthoods on it, but if you say that, you will underestimate them."
Seeing that Li Xun was puzzled, Yuan Sheng said slowly: "Don't you see that there are very few records about the cat clan in the texts of human beings, but in fact, they have not appeared in the sight of humans because of their loose temperament and their love of seclusion and laziness, and for such a long time, they are just hiding away from the world and finding a place to hide and sleep."
"It wasn't until the last century that human life began to focus on spiritual enjoyment, and they began to slowly integrate into human beings, and you should also know that their sleep is all in practice, although it is not as effective as the real Ning Xiu, but it is also incomparable to us" Yuan Sheng stared at Li Xun's eyes: "So that Chu Yi is not just a mountain and wild goblin like you said"
"I just know that he is powerful, so my nephew proposed to use soul beads to get rid of him" Listening to Yuan Sheng's words, Li Xun was not afraid, on the contrary, he felt more and more that defeating Chu Yi was something worthy of his challenge.
"You still don't understand" Yuan Sheng glanced at him again: "You go, I won't lend you the soul bead"
"Uncle, think about it again" Li Xun didn't understand why he didn't want to agree, he thought he would be the first to agree with his idea before he came, after all, the rat clan has been chased and killed by the cat clan for more than 10,000 years, and it is impossible not to get rid of the other party.
"Let's go, don't say that your uncle didn't remind you, you'd better give up on this matter quickly" Yuan Sheng turned his back after speaking, looked at his good field in front of him and ignored him.
It wasn't until Li Xun left that he turned back again: what the younger generation thought was simple;
Even if he has ever hated the cat clan, but the rat clan is currently in a state of human existence is just balanced, if there is no natural enemy like a cat, with the fecundity of the rat clan really provokes the human, the damage is estimated to be greater;
Besides, he Rat Clan finally got a half-official position on it, how could he risk following him for such an unnecessary thing.
