Chapter 34: The Gambling Contract
"Lee... Black cat, you are all second-grade cultivators, why can't you speak human words? ā
Like Li Yuan, the red fox was also much bolder and asked questions curiously.
Li Yuan didn't bother with the title of the red fox, and replied loudly: "Meow meow... (Too lazy to learn!) ļ¼ā
Red Fox's eyes lit up, and she found that she was better than Li Yuan.
"You're so stupid, you must not be able to learn! Iā" As she spoke, the red fox's tone became cheerful, and when she found out, she quickly paused and turned to a reserved voice, "Look at you for such a pitiful sake, Miss Ben is kind and reluctantly teaches you!" ā
After saying that, the red fox also pretended to chuckle a few times elegantly.
Seeing that the red fox was acting again, Li Yuan couldn't help but want to tease one or two, but he didn't reply, but raised his paw and pressed it on the top of the red fox's head.
"You!" The red fox was angry and glared at Li Yuan.
Eyes facing each other, under Li Yuan's deep eyes, the red fox lowered his head a little shyly.
But she reacted immediately, slapped Li Yuan's paw away with her claws, and said angrily: "You... You, you're so rude! ā
Retracting his claws, Li Yuan said with a smile: "Meow meow... (I'm too lazy to learn, it's not that I can't learn!) ļ¼ā
"Black cat, your hard-mouthed look is so cute!" Red Fox thought that Li Yuan was the same as he always did, so he stiffened his mouth and said with a chuckle.
Seeing that the red fox didn't believe it, Li Yuan was not angry, continued to smile, and said, "Meow meow... (If you don't believe me, let's make a bet that you'll come here tomorrow morning and I'll tell you.) ļ¼ā
Of course, the red fox didn't believe it, and just wanted to agree, but he was worried that Li Yuan was deliberately acting and wanted to pit himself.
Walking around Li Yuan for half a circle, observing his expression, Chihu asked curiously, "What do you want to bet on?" ā
"Meow meow... (I lost, I'll give you a elixir, if you lose, call me brother, how about it?) You don't suffer! ļ¼ā
Li Yuan wanted to tease the tsundere fox, so he made this bet.
The red fox glared at Li Yuan angrily, but she wanted the elixir again, and after hesitating for a moment, she asked suspiciously, "What if you lie to me and can't get the elixir?" ā
"Meow meow... (Aren't you a descendant of Tushan?) If I lie to you, you can call the elders of your clan and clean me up! Li Yuan knew it and said it deliberately.
Blocked by Li Yuan's words, the red fox pretended to be strong, raised his head and said: "I agreed to your bet, if you dare to lie to me, I will call the elders of the clan and arrest you as a slave for me!" ā
Li Yuan nodded and looked at the red fox in front of him with a smile.
With his head held high and twisted to the side arrogantly, the red fox continued: "I'll come to you tomorrow, remember to bring the elixir." ā
After speaking, the red fox held his head high, stepped gracefully, and left forward.
Looking at the back of the red fox walking away, Li Yuan shouted mischievously again: "Meow meow... (See you soon!) ļ¼ā
His footsteps were chaotic, his body shook for a moment, and the red fox glared back at Li Yuan angrily, quickened his pace, and ran into the depths of the mountain forest.
When the red fox walked away, Li Yuan did not stay where he was, and walked back to the Taoist temple.
Lin Yingying, who was boxing, saw that Li Yuan was back, her movements stopped, and she asked curiously, "Xiao Hei, what's wrong outside?" ā
Li Yuan shook his head and signaled that there was nothing wrong.
Lin Yingying didn't ask much, and when she saw Li Yuan shaking her head, she continued to practice boxing.
When the time came to noon, Lin Yingying and the old Taoist priest had entered the house for a lunch break, and Li Yuan ran to the front yard alone, ready to practice speaking human words.
Traveling through the previous world, and the world that Li Yuan lives in now, although the two worlds are dominated by humans and have the same history, there is a huge difference in the accent of their speech.
In fact, even if it is not two worlds, just the same world, the same country, the accent of hundreds of years ago and the accent of hundreds of years later, the difference is huge.
When Li Yuan had just crossed over, if it weren't for his talent for listening to the voices of all things, he would never have been able to understand what people were talking about.
Even if he relied on his natural supernatural powers to learn, it took Li Yuan more than a week to learn and understand these accents, and he could directly understand people's speech without using his natural supernatural powers.
If you can understand a language, it will be much easier to practice saying it.
Taking advantage of the old Taoist priest and Lin Yingying's afternoon nap, Li Yuan began to practice.
In an afternoon, Li Yuan had almost mastered it.
Although because I just mastered it, when I said it, I was not very comfortable and a little incoherent, but it was not much of a problem to communicate.
Learning human words, Li Yuan did not show it in front of Lin Yingying and the old Taoist.
It's not that Li Yuan wants to hide anything, but he likes the way he gets along now, quiet and leisurely, full of the breath of life, and a little warm.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is night.
While the two were asleep, Li Yuan secretly ran out again and practiced for a while.
The thought of the little fox being dumbfounded tomorrow morning! There is also the appearance of arrogantly calling her brother unwillingly after making a bet and admitting defeat! Li Yuan was a little excited and found it extremely interesting.
In the morning, Li Yuan got up early, woke Lin Yingying up, and ran out of the single room.
Standing on the edge of the water tank, after a brief wash, Li Yuan went to the front yard.
The hour was still early, and the little fox hadn't come yet, so Li Yuan jumped on the wall and began today's cultivation.
After practicing for a while, Lin Yingying, who had finished washing, also played Hache, walked to the front yard, and began to practice boxing.
Half an hour later, Li Yuan, who was cultivating, stopped.
Turning his head to look in the direction of the mountain forest, the red fox was standing next to the big tree from yesterday.
Retracting his gaze, Li Yuan looked at Lin Yingying, who was practicing boxing seriously, and jumped out of the wall.
Trotting all the way, Li Yuan ran towards the position of the red fox.
The red fox stood in place, and when he saw Li Yuan arrive on time, a trace of joy flashed in his eyes.
However, on the surface, the red fox still pretended to be arrogant.
"Xiao Yueyue, good morning!" Walking up to the red fox, Li Yuan greeted him with a smile on his face.
Faced with Li Yuan's title, the red fox obviously liked it in his heart, but he still had an angry look on his face.
"You guy is really rude, I warn you, you are not allowed to call me that in the future!"
After speaking, the red fox looked at Li Yuan's body again, and continued: "Why didn't you bring your elixir?" ā
Seeing that the red fox didn't react, and he was talking at the moment, Li Yuan smiled even happier.
"I went to the old Taoist priest last night to steal the elixir, and he found out." Li Yuan pretended to be dejected and said a little sadly.
Hearing Li Yuan's words, Chihu's heart suddenly lifted, obviously he was very concerned, but he still held the shelf and said arrogantly: "Who told you to bet with me with the elixir?" You don't have the elixir yourself and steal it! Steal it! What a fool to be discovered! ā
Teaching, teaching, seeing that Li Yuan's head hung lower, and he seemed to be very sad, the red fox still didn't hold his shelf, and asked with concern: "How will the old Taoist punish you?" Going to drive you away? Speak to me, you idiot! ā
Li Yuan lowered his head and smiled, afraid of being discovered, and did not dare to raise his head to reply.
Seeing this, the red fox came to Li Yuan's side with concern and comforted him: "What is there to be sad about, the old Taoist priest doesn't want you anymore, you will mess with me in the future, Miss Ben will cover you!" ā
After saying that, the red fox also raised his paw and patted Li Yuan's back comfortingly.
