Chapter Eighty-Nine: Mission
At this time, Xue Li found that three people were standing behind him, obviously watching the chess game for a long time.
The first person was actually the last elder who was left in the main hall at the beginning, the little old man, the elder who wanted to take him to the Immortal Valley Spirit Pet Garden, Elder Ma.
Xue Li immediately stood up and saluted Elder Ma to show respect, and then stood quietly behind Qing Shuo, one left and one right with Wu Shuo.
Elder Ma smiled and saluted Qing Shuo slightly, the two of them can be regarded as the same generation, and even his age is even older, so naturally he will not learn Xue Li to bow ninety degrees, but his status is not as good as Qing Shuo, so he will salute Qing Shuo.
Qing Shuo also stood up and changed his salute at the moment, he has always understood etiquette very well.
Qing Shuo already knew why Elder Ma was here after seeing Elder Ma and the people behind him, but he didn't intend to say it himself, but turned his head slightly to Xue Li and said.
"Apprentice, you calculate, what Elder Ma is doing. ”
Elder Nama also looked at Xue Li with a smile on his face, he had already heard of Xue Li's name as a little wise man, and this time he came here to borrow Xue Li's use, so he naturally wanted to see how Xue Li performed.
Xue Li laughed dryly, did not pinch his fingers, nor did he habitually throw pebbles, but he also guessed: "There are only two possibilities for Elder Ma to come, one is to come and chat about nothing, and the other is to have something!"
Naturally, I won't bring the rest of the little disciples here, especially the little disciples who brought them are ready to go out of the country. Xue Li paused and pointed to a young disciple behind Elder Ma who was carrying a three-pole black flag.
"Elder Ma manages the Spirit Pet Garden, and if he usually has something to do with the Spirit Pet Garden, he will definitely not come to find fault with two young disciples who are similar to me, but as far as I know, Elder Ma has not accepted disciples, so it is very likely that he came here this time to calculate the situation of this mission for the two young disciples, or to let me go out with the two senior brothers and sisters to carry out the mission. ”
"However, the tasks performed by the two young disciples are not qualified for my teacher to divination, but it is impossible to find me a half-hung wise man to divination, there are many wise people in the Immortal Valley, I think there is a task that requires the disciple to contribute, but I really have something on my body that can help to catch the task of the spirit beast. ”
In just a few words, Xue Li not only explained what Elder Ma was for, but also what tasks the two disciples needed to perform.
Qing Shuo and Wu Shuo both kept smiling, very satisfied with Xue Li's inference.
Elder Ma brushed his beard and laughed, all his thoughts were seen by Xue Li, the important thing is that Xue Li did not use divination, and he completely saw his thoughts with his own naked eyes.
What was really surprised was the two behind Elder Ma, originally the two of them were a little disdainful of Xue Li's ability, and they didn't think that Xue Li would be able to get much true inheritance in three months, but at this moment, they realized that they had underestimated Xue Li.
A man and a woman standing behind Elder Ma are the main persons in charge of this mission, Xue Li has not seen them, but the cultivation of these two people made Xue Li a little frightened, this Immortal Valley is indeed not in vain, and the cultivation of the two young disciples who appeared at random has actually reached the late stage of Jindan.
This time the task was not simple, in order to be able to capture his target, Elder Ma issued a mission to require a team of ten people, and threatened that there might be a relatively large number of casualties.
Soon, the number of Jindan disciples who took over the task reached nine, and there were two young disciples of Jindan who cultivated in the later stage, but Elder Ma was still not at ease, so he planned to count Xue Li as well, having such a wise man to follow in the team would definitely greatly increase the success rate of the task, although there was a very special existence in the team, and the roles of the two overlapped.
But Xue Li's temperament is also an important part of dealing with this target, in order to be able to persuade Xue Li to go out of the valley, he even personally embarked on such a trip, and a man and a woman behind him were also a preparation to persuade Xue Li.
If Xue Li refused, Elder Ma planned to let the two young disciples do it and tie Xue Li up.
Although it was a little unsightly to kidnap his disciple in front of Qing Shuo's eyes, this time the task was too important, and this was also his next decision, he didn't believe that Qing Shuo was willing to pull down his face and face the young disciple to make a move.
Seeing Xue Li guess his thoughts, Elder Ma calmed down, the better Xue Li's performance, the more firm he became, but he was not in a hurry to ask Xue Li if he was willing to participate in this mission, but instead introduced the two young disciples behind him.
"Come on, come on, the old man will introduce to you, both of them are super geniuses in Xunxian Valley, and they are not more than a hundred years old now, and their cultivation has reached the late stage of Jindan, which is very rare in Xunxian Valley. ”
Then he pointed to the two and said: "His name is Zhong Kuai, her name is Song Xiaoyu, and she is also the person in charge of your mission this time, if you encounter any problems during the mission, you can ask the two of them." ”
Elder Ma didn't introduce Xue Li to Zhong Kui and Song Xiaoyu, they had said everything from the very beginning.
Xue Li heard the threat in Elder Ma's words, and rolled his eyes slightly, but this time he had decided to take over the task from the beginning, his recent development was a little too fast, and he needed a task to polish himself well.
It's just that Xue Li also heard that when he introduced that the two of them had reached the late stage of Jindan before they were even 100 years old, Wu Shuo beside him snorted coldly, a little disdainful, and seemed to be very dissatisfied with the cultivation of the two.
Although this cold snort was not loud, it was very abrupt, and the faces of the two people behind Elder Ma were dark.
Even Elder Ma paused slightly, and he was a little stunned.
However, Xue Li and Qing Shuo both looked like they hadn't heard anything.
Xue Li finally nodded, he believed that his teacher should also hope that he could go out on more missions, and when he nodded, he seemed to catch a glimpse of his teacher's teachable smile.
He simply agreed, but it made Elder Ma stunned, and he was a little surprised by Xue Li's reaction, after all, he had prepared all kinds of backup methods, but he didn't use anything.
Elder Ma, who was a little surprised, blurted out: "This mission is in danger of casualties!"
Xue Li shook his head, where is there no danger of casualties along the way to cultivating immortals? It is better to take this danger as a test, and if you cross these dangers, you will naturally be able to overcome even greater dangers.
Elder Ma obviously didn't guess that Xue Li actually had such a high level of consciousness, and he didn't say anything for a while.
Elder Ma's reaction was a little funny, and Xue Li quipped, "Can't I go to the mission myself, and I have to let the two senior brothers and sisters tie me up in front of my master?"
Seeing the three of them, they all smiled awkwardly, and said seriously: "Elder Ma doesn't need to say more, I must participate in this mission!"
The three of them laughed even more embarrassedly, glanced at each other, and thought in their hearts: "It turns out that he has already calculated everything!"
