Chapter 161: A Promise Under Persecution

I couldn't help but ask, "Old Patriarch, why do you have to make a decision before dawn tomorrow?" ”

The old patriarch looked at me and said with a cautious face: "Because of the south of the bird, you must wait until dawn to find a way to crack it, at this moment the old Dao of the valley must be breaking the formation, once he breaks the first magic circle after dawn, but he can't enter the Qilin Cave yet." Then the danger of the extinction of our fox clan will come, so before dawn, it is the time to decide everything, and the danger of our fox clan this time depends on you, little friends! ”

"Huh?" I opened my mouth, but I know Master's temper best, although he is not as ruthless to spiritual cultivation as Gu Tan, but he will not get too close to spiritual cultivation, in Master's eyes, everything must be kept in order within their respective boundaries, if spiritual cultivation sticks to a corner, cultivates hard, and does not disturb the order of the world, Master will not care. But if the spiritual practice steps out of its own boundaries and causes trouble to the world, the Master will certainly not show mercy to him.

So at the moment, this fox clan, the master must be neutral, at most he can only do this step, if he wants the master to turn around and help the fox clan deal with Gu Tan, the master will definitely not agree. Although he and Gu Tan fought endlessly, the fox clan was a spiritual cultivator after all, so how could the master be influenced by spirituality.

But before I could say anything, I only felt a pain in my wrist, and Xian'er actually pinched my wrist so that I couldn't say half a word of objection. But I can't show it in front of the old patriarch, because Xian'er's feet are already on my feet, I'm afraid that if I dare to say half a word, as soon as she steps down, my feet will not be trampled off, and I am afraid that two bones will be broken. I trembled and turned my head to look at Xian'er, but when I saw Xian'er, I smiled playfully and said, "Daddy, don't worry, Ergou will definitely persuade Yang Xiandao to help our fox clan deal with Gu Laodao, isn't Ergou?" ”

Cold sweat broke out slightly on my forehead, and the strength of Xian'er's grip on my wrist became heavier and heavier, especially her feet, which had begun to exert force...... I hurriedly said to the old patriarch: "Old patriarch, please rest assured, I will definitely find a way to convince my master!" ”

As soon as the words came out, Xian'er's strength suddenly relaxed, and I exhaled deeply and wiped the beads of sweat from my forehead with a wave of my sleeve. The old patriarch looked at me in astonishment, then at the fairy beside me, and immediately laughed: "Hehe, since the little Taoist friend can agree, then ......"

"Patriarch!"

At this moment, Lu Ji suddenly walked in from the door and said respectfully to the old patriarch: "Patriarch, Yang Xiandao has already arrived, and now he is outside the gate!" ”

The old patriarch suddenly said in surprise: "Hurry up and invite Yang Xiandao in!" Please! ”

Lu Ji glanced at me coldly and said, "I have already been invited, but Yang Xiandao refused to come in, saying that he was letting his apprentice Li Ergou go out!" ”

"This ......" the old patriarch's face was suddenly a little disappointed, at this moment, everyone present looked at me, and the old patriarch said to me cautiously: "Little Daoist, please remember your promise, if you can do it, you are the great benefactor of our fox clan, even if the reincarnation is endless, our fox clan will not forget your great kindness!" ”

When I heard the news from Master, my heart was already trembling, so how could I say that to Master? And it is still unknown whether Master will agree or not. On several occasions before, Master had warned me not to agree to other people's deals and conditions casually, and that I had to get his old man's consent, but just now, under the persecution of that little girl from Xian'er, I promised to persuade Master to help the fox clan save the disaster. Alas, what should I do?

Xian'er suddenly let go of my hand and said to the old patriarch: "Daddy, otherwise let Xian'er and Ergou go and talk to Yang Xiandao together, Yang Xiandao is the righteous path and benevolence, if our fox clan knows it and moves it with affection, presumably Yang Xiandao will still agree." ”

The old patriarch hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, until you get the exact news, you must not be allowed to meet Yang Xiandao, he is a Taoist priest after all, and when he cultivates to his level, it is difficult to be swayed by worldly emotions, once he decides something, I am afraid it will be difficult for anyone to change it." Although it is good to know that it is reasonable to move with emotion, what can you do if you can't move? Yang Xiandao will take you into the demon refining pot for refining again, then the hope of our fox clan will be shattered! ”

Xian'er asked suspiciously: "Daddy, there are many sisters and brothers in the clan, aren't they also the hope of our family?" ”

The old patriarch's face turned grim and said, "Xian'er, you are different!" You must know how difficult it is for the fox clan to cultivate the path of immortals, it is difficult to avoid the thunder tribulation alone, plus the comprehension cannot be reached, the merits cannot be accumulated to perfection, and all kinds of obstacles can hinder the path of cultivation. And you have absorbed the cultivation of the Colorful Tiangang since you were a child, and your understanding is the highest among your peers, and it is very likely that you will achieve positive results in the future, once you cultivate to positive fruits, our fox clan will also have a light on their faces, so you are the hope of our fox clan, and you must not be in the slightest danger! ”

Hearing the words of the old patriarch, I still don't understand why Xian'er was able to absorb the colorful Tiangang, why she was able to withstand the qi of Tiangang, and what special mystery did she have? It's a pity that Xian'er won't tell me, I'm afraid I can only find out little by little.

Xian'er smiled and said to the old patriarch: "Daddy, if Xian'er really has the fate of the immortal way, then this time he and Ergou went to see Yang Xiandao, and there will definitely be no accident. Daddy, don't worry, besides, there are two dogs to protect me, isn't it two dogs? As she spoke, Xian'er looked at me with a lovely face, and my heart trembled, saying that I would protect her, and she would protect me.

But seeing Xian'er's lovely smile, perhaps only I could understand the destructive means hidden behind her smile, and immediately nodded and said, "Old patriarch, please rest assured, I will definitely keep Xian'er safe!" ”

The old patriarch hesitated for a long time, but still nodded: "Okay, you must have a good talk with Yang Xiandao, don't make Yang Xiandao angry." Xian'er, the lives of one hundred and ten members of our fox clan are carried on the two of you, don't let your father down, don't let us fox clan down! ”

Xian'er finally returned solemnly, respectfully saluted the old patriarch, and said, "Daddy, don't worry, we're going." ”

I also bowed to the old patriarch, and then walked out of the living room with Xian'er, through the courtyard, just at the gate, Lu Ji whispered in my ear: "Even if you can't negotiate a deal, you must ensure the safety of my Xian'er, otherwise I will not let you go!" I was stunned, but seeing Midorihime's solemn expression, I had to nod my head and accept it. This Green Ji is always fierce to me, as if she doesn't have a good face for others at all except for the old patriarch.

Out of the gate, Midori closed the door, and outside, there were only me and Xian'er, Xian'er held my hand tightly, I could feel her palms sweating, I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, I didn't expect Xian'er to be so scared, it really made me feel strange. I hurriedly comforted, "Don't be afraid, my master won't deal with spiritual cultivation for no reason, and my master is very kind. ”

Xian'er bit her lip and looked at me, then nodded: "Ergou, in fact, I have never left the fox clan, and I have never been in danger, this is the first time I have decided to come out and do something for the fox clan, I don't know if your master will agree......"

I comforted again: "I thought you weren't afraid of heaven and earth, hehe, don't worry, with me here, my master will definitely not do anything to you, and besides, my master is still a good master in addition to being stubborn and sometimes unreasonable, hehe!" ”

"Since the teacher is stubborn and unreasonable, why did you come out?" At this moment, Master's voice suddenly sounded behind me, and when I heard Master's voice, I suddenly felt that my breath was in my throat, almost suffocating me to death, I hurriedly turned around, and sure enough, I saw Master walking over slowly, looked at me, and asked casually, "You are very capable now!" With you, I have to listen to you as a teacher, right? Well?! ”

"Master......" I suddenly weakened my legs, knelt down in front of the master, and then said with a bitter face: "The apprentice is talking about playing, in order to comfort Xian'er, Master, don't you go to your heart...... The apprentice knows that he is wrong, don't be like the apprentice, just treat it as an apprentice, it's okay......"

The master snorted coldly and said, "Do you say it's okay?" ”

"I ......" I nodded with a bitter face, but seeing the seriousness of the master's face, I hurriedly shook my head again and said, "No......"

Master glared at me, turned and walked away. I hurriedly pulled Xian'er to catch up with my master, but Xian'er asked me in a low voice, "Ergou, didn't you say that you are very useful in front of your master?" Why is it that what you say is not even a fart in front of your master? ”

I replied aggrievedly: "Sometimes it's the top use, but sometimes it's not very good, usually it's not the top ......"

After I finished speaking, I saw Xian'er roll her eyes at me weakly. On the hillside not far away, the master slowly stopped, and said without looking back: "You little fox spirit, if you want to ask me to help your fox clan deal with Gu Tan, then you don't have to speak. I won't agree to your request, humans and demons are two worlds, each does not offend each other, you have to understand this! ”

Hearing this, Xian'er couldn't help asking: "Yang Xiandao, is it possible that our fox clan is willing to inform the entrance to the Qilin Cave, and such conditions can't let you help us?!" ”
