Weird Cultivation, I have a five-organ temple

Chapter 480 Double Happiness
Shang Lu, who was still at the top of the mountain and was about to leave, also felt that there were several more powers in his body.

He couldn't help but sigh that the value of his internal organs was still increasing. Anyone who dared to enter his body, no matter what force it was, would have to leave some "bribes".

Shang Lu originally thought that the five internal organs were holding back the dragon and tiger qi, but when he activated the inner vision method to check, he discovered that the five internal organs were also holding back heavenly thunder and earthly fire.

"You dare to intercept even the robbery force?"

Shang Lu was really shocked.

The heavenly thunder and earthly fire originate from the two calamities of heaven and earth among the three calamities. If one cannot refine them, wouldn't it be the same as leaving the calamity in the body, constantly attracting new calamities of heaven and earth?
Shang Lu hurriedly checked carefully and soon discovered that the heavenly thunder and earthly fire were being transformed by the five internal organs with a fairly good efficiency.

Part of the transformed heavenly thunder and earthly fire entered the Yin-Yang Clock, making the Yin-Yang fish on the clock face more lifelike and swimming more actively.

The other part, under the control of the five internal organs, roamed in Shanglu's body and finally merged into the essence and qi, giving the essence and qi the power of thunder and fire.

After confirming that the Heavenly Thunder and Earthly Fire could be refined, Shang Lu breathed a sigh of relief, and then he was surprised at the power of Wu Zang Temple: "He even dares to swallow the power of robbery, he can swallow it... Damn it, could he be a glutton who has transformed into a spirit?"

Compared with the heavenly thunder and earthly fire, Shang Lu was not surprised at all that the dragon and tiger qi were intercepted.

Wu Zangmiao even dares to intercept divine power and calamity power. Isn't it normal for it to intercept the power of the dragon and tiger stone statues?
The intercepted dragon and tiger qi, after being transformed by the five internal organs, also became Shanglu's own power.

Not only did they merge into the cyclone, increasing its power, they also helped Shang Lu when he was practicing the Dragon and Tiger Dan Qi, allowing him to more smoothly absorb the yin and yang energies of water and fire and communicate between Kan and Li.

With this breakthrough, Shang Lu benefited a lot from the dragon and tiger stone statues, so much so that even he, who was so shameless, felt a little embarrassed.

After checking the internal condition, Shang Lu secretly reminded himself: "I must burn more incense to the Mountain Lord and the Cloud Lord in the future, both to thank them and to encourage them to be more generous."

Then he grinned, smiling, and called out impatiently: "Sanniang, let's go home."

With a wave of his hand, the paper bird immediately flew out from his sleeve, flapping its wings and growing larger in an instant.

Shang Lu sat on it and turned to greet Uncle Huai, but when he looked around, he didn't see Uncle Huai.

"Where's Uncle Huai?" Shang Lu was stunned and looked at Sanniang: "Where did he go?"

"I asked him to go back and prepare first." Sanniang replied, "While you were learning Dragon and Tiger Qi from Shanjun and Yunjun."

"Preparing? Preparing for what?" Shang Lu was a little curious and said with a smile, "Are you going to set up a banquet to celebrate my breakthrough?"

But this time, Sanniang did not answer.

Although separated by the red veil, Shang Lu could still clearly feel Sanniang's shyness, which made his heart suddenly move.

"Could it be..."

Shang Lu guessed a possibility and suddenly became excited. He even felt dry mouth and his palms were hot and numb.

Fortunately, he was not stupid. He did not ask Sanniang any questions. He just laughed and kept saying "go home". Then he jumped onto the paper bird and rode it down the mountain.

Shang Lu, who was eager to return home, wondered for the first time why the flying speed of this paper bird was so slow.

It was so slow that he scratched his ears and cheeks, becoming impatient.

Finally, Shang Lu simply jumped off the paper bird, raised his hand and wiped his face, put on the Nuo mask of the god with a pig body, eight legs and a snake tail, and used the earth escape technique to rush to Chengfeng County at full speed.

"After today, I must find someone to teach me the art of paper tearing!"

Shang Lu gritted his teeth and made a secret decision in his heart.

The stone statues of dragon and tiger guarding the entrance to the witch academy soon noticed that Shang Lu was using the earth escape technique to rush down the mountain.

They looked at each other, both a little surprised.

"This kid used the earth escape technique instead of riding the paper bird, and he escaped so fast, as if his butt was on fire. Did something happen to him?"

"What could have happened? There was no trace of evil spirit in the mountain or in the city. In my opinion, he must be anxious to go back to practice and consolidate his cultivation. Before, he had just completed a breakthrough on the mountaintop and survived the two calamities of heaven and earth. Wasn't he in a hurry to go back?"

"That makes sense. This kid not only has talent and luck, but he's also so hardworking. No wonder he was able to break through to the Tongtian realm in such a short time."

"What a pity. Starting from the Tongtian Realm, it is not enough to just have talent and opportunity..."

The dragon and tiger stone statues looked at each other and became more determined to give Shanglu more help and not ruin the good seedlings.

Unfortunately, they didn't know why Shang Lu was in a hurry to go home.

Otherwise, I would definitely give up the idea immediately.

In a moment, Shanglu burrowed down the mountain.

Then he fled all the way to the gate of Chengfeng County.

When he suddenly appeared from the side of the official road, he frightened several passers-by, especially when they saw that he was wearing a groom's suit, which made people feel even more strange and weird.

Someone on the spot turned pale, his teeth chattered, and he fell to the ground with a plop, screaming, "Oh my god, there's a ghost!"

No wonder these people think Shanglu is a ghost.

Is there any normal person who would crawl out of the ground wearing the groom's clothes?
It is said that female ghosts wearing wedding dresses are extremely vicious, so this male ghost wearing groom's clothes is probably no less vicious?
The guards at the city gate were also startled when they heard the scream.

It's not even night yet, and a ghost has already appeared? How ferocious must it be!
They immediately clamored to close the gate and call for help - there were witchcraft talismans on the city gate that could scare away most wandering ghosts.

"Ghost? Where is it?"

After hearing the screams of passers-by, Shang Lu's first reaction was to look around to catch a ghost, but then he realized that the ghost these people were talking about was himself.

Seeing that his appearance caused chaos at the city gate, he was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"Don't panic, I am the thief Cao of this county, a human being, not a ghost!"

Shang Lu used his eloquence and took out two badges, one of which was the law enforcement officer of the Discipline Department and the other was the clerk of the Thieves Department, to prove his identity.

Thanks to his eloquence, the commotion at the city gate was finally alleviated a little.

Among the guards at the city gate, someone recognized Shang Lu and quickly bowed to him.

At the same time, the city gate guards were also very curious about Shang Lu's strange outfit.

Even though Shang Lu was of higher status than them, they couldn't help but ask, "Shang Zecao, why are you wearing the groom's clothes?"

Married? It doesn’t look like it, and he even crawled out from the ground... He couldn’t have run away from his marriage, could he?
"Something happened before, and all my clothes were ruined. I only had this set of clothes I wore when I got married, so I put them on for emergency. I didn't expect to scare everyone..."

Shang Lu gave a vague explanation, then hurried through the city gate and headed towards Mingyue Lane.

Looking at his hurriedly leaving back, several city gate guards whispered to each other.

"What happened that caused the merchant thief Cao's clothes to be completely destroyed?"

"Did she get raped by a demon? I heard there are powerful demons who like to take Yang to replenish Yin."

"Shang Ze Cao is a sorcerer who knows magic. What kind of demon can rape him? He is more like a demon!"

"That's hard to say. What if it's a powerful demon? Didn't you see that the thief Cao was in a hurry? He must have gone to get help..."

The discussion among the city gate guards became more and more outrageous. In the end, they even came up with a story about Shang Lu being kidnapped by demons and taken to the mountains to be the chief officer of the village.

They also had their reasons. Otherwise, why would Shang Lu be wearing the groom's clothes and crawling out of the ground in such an embarrassed state?

As for Shang Lu's explanation, they didn't believe it at all. Who would carry the wedding dress with them all the time? It's impossible that he was always thinking about getting married again, right? It must be that Liu Quan was not here, otherwise he would definitely give the pen to them and let them write the story...

Because of the misunderstanding that occurred at the city gate, Shang Lu slowed down his pace after entering the county town.

However, his appearance in the groom's robe still attracted many people's attention and discussion.

Shang Lu pretended not to see it. On the way back to Mingyue Lane, he even took a detour and turned into a jewelry store to choose some new jewelry for Sanniang.

It was also during this time that he found the time to take out the Jade Token of the Witch Academy and sent a message to Lu Dao and Zishu Xunshou respectively, telling them that he had broken through to the Tongtian Realm.

There was no reply from Lu Dao for a long time, and Shang Lu was not surprised.

Breaking through to the fifth-grade Neifu realm is much more difficult than breaking through to the Tongtian realm, and it is definitely not something that can be accomplished in a day or two.

Lu Dao must still be in seclusion now, so he didn't see the message he sent so quickly.

On the contrary, it was the Rat who sent the message of congratulations and encouragement as soon as possible, which surprised Shang Lu a little.

He sent the message to Zishu Patrol because it was with the help of Zishu Patrol that he was able to escape danger and get rid of the great wizard Zhongli in Pingdu Mountain and Mingxu.

When leaving Pingdu Mountain, Patrol Officer Zishu had specifically instructed him to inform him after he had purified the pollution and evil miasma in his body.

As a result, he was busy with his breakthrough and forgot about this matter. It was not until he sent a message to Lu Dao that he saw Rat Patrol in the contact column and remembered this matter. He simply informed him about both the purification and the breakthrough at the same time.

Shang Lu originally thought that even if the Rat Patrol did not return to Wushan, he was still inspecting various places and was very busy. It would probably take a long time for him to see this news.

Unexpectedly, Zishu Xunshu replied to the message within seconds.

What Shang Lu didn't expect was that the Rat was currently on patrol in Luoshui County.

In front of an acquaintance of his.

"What is the origin of Shanglu's ghost wife Sanniang?"

The Rat Patrol chatted with Shang Lu for a few words, then put away the witch card and looked at the Baichuan Town temple priest who was standing in front of him with a nervous look on his face.

The temple keeper of Baichuan Town did not know the true identity of the Rat Patrol, but only knew that he was a very powerful person. He was stunned for a moment when he heard the question, as if he was trying to recall who Shang Lu was and who Sanniang was.

It was not until the Rat Patrol reminded him that the elderly shaman finally recalled and answered carefully: "In reply to your Excellency, the wife of Shang County Magistrate was from Dawangmiao Village on Yunhua Mountain. She had a gentle personality when she was alive..."

The old temple keeper didn't know that Shang Lu had been transferred to the county's thieves' office, and thought he was serving as a county lieutenant in Luoshui County.

The Rat Patrolman did not correct him. After listening to him finish his story of Sanniang's origin, he asked, "Was she just an ordinary person when she was alive?"

"He's just an ordinary person." The temple priest in Baichuan Town nodded, but looked confused. He obviously didn't understand why the Rat Patrol asked this question.

The Rat Patrolman did not explain and continued to ask, "What happened after she died?"

This question made the Baichuan Town temple priest stunned for a moment, and asked puzzledly: "What does Shangguan mean?"

"Did anything strange happen to Sanniang after her death?" asked the Rat Patrolman.

According to the information he had gathered, Shang Lu had been an ordinary person for the past ten or twenty years.

Although he had learned martial arts from a master in a martial arts school in the county, his skills were only mediocre, at the level of an ordinary constable.

This is certainly because the kung fu taught in the martial arts school is not good enough, but it also shows that Shang Lu is not a person with extraordinary talent or great opportunities.

But everything changed dramatically after Shanglu's "resurrection".

The Rat Patrol sent people to ask the shaman in Luoshui County, who confirmed that Shanglu had come back to life and was not taken over by an evil spirit.

After Shang Lu came back to life, his life trajectory changed completely.

It was as if there was a mysterious force helping and guiding him, allowing him to break through from a useless person to the Tongtian realm in just over a year.

Since Shang Lu was not taken over by evil spirits, nor did he meet any famous teacher to guide him, then the one who caused all this must be his ghost wife.

Although this kind of thing is rare, it does happen.

In the witch academies of various counties, there are many people who shout "A woman 300 years older than you will be given a golden elixir, and a woman 3,000 years older than you will be enlisted in the immortal class". Although it is a joke, it can be seen that the witches of Ba country are not opposed to marrying a "ghost sister" and living off her.

Not to mention, in the past few years, there were even wizards who relied on their good looks to seduce the residual souls of the monks before the disaster in the secret realm in order to gain benefits...

However, the female ghost mentioned by the temple priest in Baichuan Town had only been dead for a few years, so she should not have such ability. That was why the Rat Patrol was confused and asked this question.

"Something strange?"

The temple keeper in Baichuan Town recalled carefully for a long time, and finally remembered one thing.

"There is one. I remember that not long after Shang County Magistrate came back to life, his parents said that their home was haunted, and they invited a local witch to exorcise the ghost. But when the witch arrived, she said that the ghost in their home was Shang County Magistrate's wife, who was married to Shang County Magistrate, and that she could not be exorcised. Later, the matter was left unresolved, and no one from the Shang family mentioned it again... Sir, do you think this counts?"

The Rat was silent while on patrol.

He had heard reports from his subordinates about the story of the ghost wife looking for her husband.

It is for this reason that he suspected that the change in Shang Lu’s fate was due to his ghost wife.

That's why he was curious about Sanniang's origins and came to investigate, but in the end he found nothing.

"Shangguan..."

Seeing that he didn't say anything, the Baichuan Town temple priest plucked up the courage and asked curiously: "But what did Shang County Lieutenant do wrong?"

The Rat Patrolman glanced at the Baichuan Town temple priest and suddenly smiled and said, "He is not in trouble, but is going to be promoted."

"Promotion?" The temple priest in Baichuan Town was puzzled.

What kind of promotion requires questioning even the wife’s background?

The Rat Patrolman ignored him and turned around to burn a stick of incense to the statue of Hou Tu Niangniang in the Wu Temple. He whispered, "Niangniang, Shang Lu's marriage was arranged by you. Is there any problem with his wife?"

Then he raised his head and looked at the statue of Hou Tu Niangniang enshrined in the main hall.

But he only saw the statue looking down at him with a half-smile on its face.

After a long time, the Rat Patrol nodded, said nothing, turned around and left the Baichuan Town Witch Temple, leaving the old temple keeper with a look of astonishment on his face, not knowing what was going on.

A strand of mouse hair floated down from the insufficiently-feeted head of the Rat Patrolman and landed on the body of the temple priest in Baichuan Town.

The temple priest in Baichuan Town felt dazed.

A moment later, when he recovered, the Rat Patrol had already disappeared without a trace.

The memory of the Witch Temple in Baichuan Town was also sealed and completely forgotten.

At the same time, Shang Lu returned to Mingyue Lane.

As soon as he entered the alley, his heart began to pound.

The alley was decorated with lights and was filled with festive atmosphere.

At the door of his house, there were big red lanterns hanging high, and a big red "囍" character was pasted on the door.
