Chapter 56: The Banquet
Follow the three elders all the way to the spacious banquet hall.
At this time, the banquet hall was already crowded, and Li Yuan was led by the three elders to the table on the left side of the front to take a seat.
The tables in the banquet hall are all seated by single people, arranged around, and in the middle there is a fox girl performing songs and dances.
Seeing Li Yuan arrive, the patriarch of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan, who was sitting on the upper hand, waved his hand to let the girl who was performing retreat, and the music was interrupted.
Raising his glass, the patriarch of the fox clan toasted in the direction of Li Yuan, "Hahaha, this is Boss Li, he is really young and promising, he has long heard of Boss Li's name, and when I saw it today, he was as good as his name." ”
The third elder sat down at Li Yuan's hand, and at this time, he whispered in Li Yuan's ear: "Xiaoyou, this is the patriarch of my nine-tailed fox clan, Zhao Teng. ”
Li Yuan picked up the wine glass on the table and raised it to Zhao Teng, "Thank you for the hospitality of the patriarch!" ”
"Hey~ Boss Li helped Zhaoli and Zhaokun improve his bloodline, and he has a great kindness to my nine-tailed fox clan, and my nine-tailed fox clan will remember it in my heart, and Boss Li will always be a friend of my nine-tailed fox clan."
Li Yuan picked up the wine glass again, smiled and clinked glasses with Zhao Teng.
After three glasses of wine, Zhao Teng said to Zhao He, who was sitting behind the right: "Zhao He, you talked about the cooperation with Boss Li before, this time Boss Li came to be a guest, why don't you toast a few glasses?" ”
Hearing this, Zhaohe got up delicately, picked up the wine glass, walked across the dance floor, walked to Li Yuan, and saluted Li Yuan, "Li Gongzi, thank you for being a guest of our clan." ”
Li Yuan: "Hahaha, I'm very happy to be a guest of the nobles!" "If you don't earn points, you can still find out the reality of the dragon clan, are you willing to come as a master?
The two chatted a few more words, and Zhao He took advantage of the situation to sit down in the position of Li Yuan, the third elder, and the third elder moved to the position before Zhao He.
Zhao He was talkative, and after sitting down and chatting a few words, he found that Li Yuan was interested in the dragon clan, and his eyes glanced at Li Yuan's left arm subtly, although now Li Yuan's left arm was covered by his robe, but Zhao He knew that Li Yuan's left arm was hanging a small golden dragon that was sleeping.
In order to do what she likes, there are many things involving the dragon clan in Zhaohe's conversations, so Li Yuan is also willing to say a few more words to her.
The friendly conversation between the two was seen by Zhao Teng, and a pleased smile appeared in his eyes, and he quietly gave Zhao He a look, asking her to treat Li Yuan well.
Then, Zhao Teng clapped his palms, and the maid with the food rushed in, and at the same time, the fox girl who had just left the stage came on the stage again and performed singing and dancing.
The banquet was lively again.
Holding the wine glass, Li Yuan watched the singing and dancing on the field, while listening to Zhao He occasionally popping out a sentence or two of the dragon clan's secrets.
From Zhaohe's mouth, Li Yuan learned that the dragon clan was originally in charge of the golden dragon lineage, but a hundred years ago, the wife of the leader of the golden dragon clan was pregnant, as the supreme leader of the dragon clan, the golden dragon somewhat looked down on the resources in the clan's inventory, in order to find more and better resources for the soon-to-be-born child to enhance the potential, the golden dragon leader took his wife out together.
It takes about 80~100 years for the dragon clan to give birth to a dragon egg from pregnancy, so the leader of the golden dragon and his wife have not returned from going out for decades, and there has been no reaction among the dragon clan.
Dragons live a long lifespan, and it doesn't matter if it takes decades to find resources.
However, when the hundred years arrived, the dragon clan people reacted that the golden dragon leader and his wife who had gone out had not returned home, and according to the time, his wife should have given birth to a dragon egg at this time.
In the ancestral land of the dragon family, there is a place where the ancestors of the past generations are buried, and the dragon qi here is deep, and generally speaking, the dragon eggs that are born at the beginning will be sent here by the mother dragon to absorb the dragon qi.
The two of them have not returned for so long, and they have not sent the dragon eggs back, which is obviously unreasonable.
The Golden Dragon secretly sent several dragons to search, but none of them found the whereabouts of the dragon leader and his wife.
The loss of two high-end combat powers, coupled with the fact that the Golden Dragon Pulse sent a large number of clansmen out to look for it, the remaining strength of the clan plummeted.
After that, the Qinglong vein was deprived of the leadership position of the previous generation of the golden dragon on the grounds that the dragon clan could not be without a leader, and then according to the strength of each vein of the dragon clan's branches, excluding the golden dragon, the Qinglong vein was the strongest.
In the end, the leader of the Qinglong lineage became the supreme leader of the dragon clan.
Hearing this, Li Yuan glanced at Li Jin, who was still wrapped around his arm under his robe.
He met Li Jin and Jin Long half a year ago, and according to the timeline of Zhao He's narration, Li Jin is likely to be the child of the leader of Jin Long.
It seems that when I arrived at Dragon Island later, I had to go to the territory of the Golden Dragon Lineage.
It's just that...... The Qinglong vein has now replaced the dominant position of the golden dragon before, from Zhaohe's previous words, the Qinglong and the golden dragon vein may not be in harmony, if so, Li Yuan will take Li Jin to the dragon island, and it is likely to be obstructed by the Qinglong vein.
The night is getting deeper, the wine has passed three rounds, the guests and hosts at the banquet are happy, and Li Yuan is also a little drunk after dozens of glasses of wine.
After the banquet ended, Li Yuan, who was a little stumbling, was helped back to the courtyard by Zhaohe.
The fox butler, who had been waiting in the courtyard for a long time, hurriedly beckoned the maid to prepare hot water, and after Li Yuan washed up in a daze, he fell into a deep sleep.
The next morning,
'Knock knock'
"Master?"
Li Yuan groaned and got up when he heard the voice of the fox butler, and his head was splitting after a hangover.
After a cup of tea, Li Yuan came to his senses completely.
Tomorrow will be the grand event of the re-entry of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan.
The Third Elder also had a lot to do, so he assigned Zhao He to entertain Li Yuan.
"Master, Miss Zhaohe is already waiting in the courtyard."
"Hmm."
Changing into a brand-new robe, Li Yuan paced into the courtyard, since he came to the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan, he hadn't walked carefully, it happened that there was a tour guide today, Li Yuan planned to have a good taste of the alien customs.
Zhao He took Li Yuan as he walked and introduced, and the fox butler followed three steps behind the two.
The atmosphere between the two is just right, and others look at it from a distance and call it a pair of handsome men and beautiful women.
It's just that there will always be people who spoil the scenery in such a scene.
"This is Boss Li who came to the clan as a guest!" A handsome nine-tailed fox boy walked up to the two of them, and after saying such a sentence in a weird manner, he didn't wait for the two to answer, he looked Li Yuan up and down unscrupulously.
Such a rude behavior made Zhao He frown.
"Zhaoqu, what are you doing? This is a noble guest of the clan, how can you be so presumptuous! ”
Hearing Zhaohe's reprimand, the anger in Zhaoqu's eyes was even worse.
Zhaoqu is Zhaohe's hardcore admirer, and he has been pursuing Zhaohe for a long time, but he has not waited for Zhaohe's response.
The banquet that entertained Li Yuan yesterday did not participate because he had something to go out.
When I returned to the clan today, I heard from the good friends that at yesterday's banquet, Zhaohe was quite close to Li Yuan, not only took the initiative to toast, but also deliberately changed positions with the three elders, and sat next to Li Yuan all night to chat with him, it is said that Zhaohe smiled very happily at that time.
As soon as he heard this, Zhaoqu immediately exploded!
He chased the goddess who couldn't get a response for a long time, and actually went to post another man, this person is just a human being!
At that time, Zhaoqu couldn't bear it and wanted to rush directly to the courtyard where Li Yuan lived to find trouble with him.
The people who accompanied him knew how much the patriarch and the elders attached importance to Li Yuan, and the companions who had revealed the news to Zhaoqu before also regretted it at this time.
In order to divert Zhaoqu's attention, a group of people said that they wanted to go out for a walk, but before they could think about it, they met Li Yuan and Zhaohe who were playing together.
Seeing Zhao He's smiling appearance in front of Li Yuan, where can Zhao Qu endure it? Breaking free from the pull of his companions, he stepped forward.
As a result, he only said a word, which attracted Zhaohe's reprimand.
To say that when he pursued Zhaohe before, he was not less scolded by Zhaohe, but at that time he thought that Zhaohe was cheeky and embarrassed, so he never took it to heart.
However, now, Zhao He scolded him like this in front of Li Yuan, and when he remembered the face of Zhao He in front of Li Yuan just now, Zhao Qu suddenly became angry.
didn't care about the fact that his companions had specially reminded him before that Li Yuan was a noble guest in the clan.
rushed to Li Yuan, raised his hand and pointed at Li Yuan's nose and said, "What kind of thing are you, you dare to covet Zhaohe, just a human being, get out of our ancestral land quickly!" ”
was pointed at his nose and scolded like this, Li Yuan was also annoyed, "Put your hand down, if you don't want it, I'll break him for you!" ”
Seeing that Li Yuan dared to resist, Zhaoqu, who was accustomed to the cowardly appearance of human beings, couldn't accept it even more, his face turned red, his fangs bared, and the sharp claws in his fingers appeared, and he was about to attack Li Yuan.
At this moment, Zhaohe dodged, stood directly between the two, and said coldly to Zhaoqu: "Zhaoqu!" What do you want? ”
Zhaoqu didn't want to hurt Zhaohe, so he stretched out his hand to pull Zhaohe away, "Zhaohe, you go away, I'm looking for this kid, if there is a kind of him, he will come out and fight with me, what kind of ability is hiding behind a woman!" ”
Being questioned so much, can Li Yuan bear it?
Of course not!
Raising his hand to remove Zhao He who was blocking him, he stared at Zhao Qu with purple eyes, "What do you want?" ”
"Humph! Think how! I know that you are a guest invited by the clan, but if you dare to pay attention to the woman I have my eye on, this matter will not be good today. ”
"I don't take advantage of you, the front is the martial arts training ground, let's compete, if you lose, give me as far as I can, don't appear in front of Zhaohe again!"
"Oh? What if I win? ”
"Win?" Zhaoqu glanced at Li Yuan disdainfully, "It's up to you?" ”
"What? Afraid of losing? ”
"Hmph, I'm afraid of losing? If you can win me, from now on I see Zhaohe, and I will take a detour thirty meters away! ”
Li Yuan shook his head, "No, Zhaohe is not an object, how can it be used to bet!" ”
Zhaoqu was choked for a moment, "Then you say!" ”
"I won, you have to go with me to a place that is dangerous and could kill you! You've got to be a pawn for me! ”
"Huh! Deal! ”
Zhaoqu simply agreed, he didn't think that the little white face of the human in front of him could win him at all.
