big dream master

He turned around and glanced at her, and saw that although she had a panicked look on her face, her eyes were firm, and she had already lifted up her skirt with both hands, obviously ready to separate and run away.

"It's okay, it's just two little thieves, don't worry." Seeing this, Shen Luo couldn't bear to continue pretending, and smiled at him.

Looking at the warm smile on Shen Luo's face, Nie Caizhu was inexplicably relieved, and her hand holding the skirt relaxed a little bit.

"Stay slow, let me die!" Dao Scar's face was already a little angry, and he rushed up first, and swiped the steel knife and slashed towards Shen Luo from behind.

"Be careful..." Nie Caizhu exclaimed when she saw this.

The smile on the corner of Shen Luo's mouth didn't diminish, he didn't even turn around, just turned his body slightly to avoid it.

The blade on Scarface slid down Shen Luo's clothes, Shen Luo raised his hand and flicked his fingers, and the index finger hit the palm of his hand holding the knife.

With a crisp sound of "pa", the palm of Scarface loosened, and the steel knife also fell down.

He only heard a miserable cry from his mouth, but the bones of his hand had been shattered.

Because the sinking movement was very small, Cyclops didn't even know what happened. He saw his companion suddenly fell to the ground and screamed, and immediately rushed up with the knife in his hand.

As soon as Shen Luo moved his feet, he rushed directly in front of him, and raised his hand to gently press his neck.

The one-eyed dragon suddenly went limp, rolled his eyes, and passed out.

Chapter 0288 Fiancee

Nie Caizhu watched this scene with her eyes widened and her face full of disbelief.

"It's been said that I practiced martial arts since childhood, but I don't believe it..." Seeing this, Shen Luo blew on his palm and said to himself.

After finishing speaking, he raised his toes again and lightly tapped Scarface's temple. Scarface, who was still writhing in pain just now, immediately had his eyes darkened and passed out.

"Miss Nie, let's go." Shen Luo stepped forward and said softly.

"They..." Nie Caizhu looked at the two lying on the ground and hesitated.

"I've fainted, and I won't be able to wake up or run for seven or eight hours." Shen Luo smiled and said.

Only then did Nie Caizhu feel relieved, and followed Shen Luo out of Yuanzhu Temple, heading towards the county seat.

After the incident just now, the relationship between the two has become closer unconsciously, and from the beginning, one in front of the other, it has become two people walking side by side.

"Miss Nie, Yunzhou is thousands of miles away. Why did you come to Chunhua County so far away?" Shen Luo asked casually.

"To be honest, the reason why I came all the way here is just to meet someone," Nie Caizhu said.

"In that case, he must be someone who is extremely important to the girl." Shen Luo raised his eyebrows and said.

"Important... It doesn't seem to be a big deal. He is my fiancé, but I have never seen him before." Nie Caizhu said after a moment of thought.

"Why is this?" Shen Luo asked knowingly.

"It's absurd to say this matter. My fiancé is a distant cousin of mine, and he and I have been married since we were young..." Nie Caizhu thought for a moment, and then began to tell the story slowly.

It turned out that since the death of Nie Caizhu's mother, the Nie family had lost contact with the Shen family, and the entire Nie family did not take Shen's family, which was far less wealthy than their own, seriously at all, only that the marriage contract did not exist.And the Shen family also seemed to be very self-aware, and did not take the initiative to contact the Nie family to fulfill the contract, which made the Nie family very satisfied.

Later, the Nie family saw that Nie Caizhu had reached the age of marriage, so they wanted to marry the Yunzhou prefect's mansion, and wanted to marry her to the prefect's second son to strengthen the family power.

Unexpectedly, Nie Caizhu didn't think much of that dude who was notorious in Yunzhou at all, so she claimed that she already had a marriage contract and refused to agree.

Nie's family persuaded her earnestly from top to bottom, telling her to understand the general situation and think about the family, but who would have thought that this seemingly weak woman was unexpectedly tough in this matter, no matter how persuasive and persuasive the family was? , No matter how cleverly persecuted, none of them were moved.

Seeing that she was not allowed to enter, the Nie family had no choice but to confine her, planning to marry her into the prefect's mansion forcibly, so that she could be cooked with raw rice.

But it didn't take long for Nie Caizhu to pack up some gold and silver items, and escaped quietly from home with her maidservant. She disguised herself as a man and came to Chunhua County along the way.

This process sounded like the story in the storybook, which shocked Shen Luo, a cultivator in the bigu period, when he heard it.

You must know that the entire territory of the Tang Dynasty is not safe at present, and there are evil spirits everywhere. How difficult is it for Nie Caizhu to reach Shen's house safely as a woman?

"Marriage has always been the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. A woman like Miss Nie is very rare." Shen Luo sighed lightly, and had a lot of affection for this simple-minded woman who dared to fight.

"Other matters may be compromised. Others can't make decisions for me about my own marriage." Nie Caizhu said with her eyes slightly brightened.

"But Miss Nie, have you ever thought that your fiancé is also likely to be a dude, even ugly, with bad conduct?" Shen Luo glanced at Nie Caizhu and asked again.

"If that's the case, then I won't marry him either, and coming here to fulfill the contract will become a termination of the contract." Nie Caizhu said without hesitation.

It's just that after she finished speaking, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and her face stretched out like a white cloud.

"However, after meeting my fiancé's family, I believe he is definitely not some playboy." Nie Caizhu added.

"How do you know this?" Shen Luo came back to his senses and asked curiously.

"The family has its own style, I can see it. Besides, I also heard some things about my fiancé from my uncle. It can be seen that he is an ambitious and motivated person." Nie Caizhu replied.

Hearing this, Shen Luo couldn't help feeling complacent, and couldn't help showing a smile on his face.

"I'm talking about my fiancé, why is the young master so happy?" Nie Caizhu just saw it in his eyes, felt a little weird, and couldn't help asking.

"Oh, we are both from the same village, and we are honored. I just don't know which young talent it is?" Shen Luo hurriedly laughed.

"He is the eldest son of the Shen family drugstore in the city. He seems to be the same age as you. I wonder if you know each other?" Nie Caizhu asked.

"It's a pity that we didn't get to know each other." Shen Luo shook his head and said.

"The matter of fate is really vague. I came to this Yuanzhu Temple today to pray for the blessings of gods and Buddhas. I hope that my fiancé is a person with a pure heart and a person who I can really like." Nie Caizhu thought for a long time , Self-care said.

When she said these words, there seemed to be stars in her eyes, shining brightly.

Shen Luo watched from the side, as if a part of his heart had been hit suddenly, and the corners of his mouth could not help but rise slightly.

Afterwards, the two walked back to the county seat all the way, chatting casually.

On the way, Shen Yuange drove a carriage with several servants, went out of the city to look for the two of Shen Luo, and saw them returning side by side from a distance.

When he got close, the coachman reined in his horse and stopped, and immediately a maidservant in Tsing Yi jumped out of the car, and ran towards Nie Caizhu crying, shouting: "Miss, you scared Xiaochun to death, woooo..."

As she spoke, she threw herself into Nie Caizhu's arms and burst into tears.

This little maid looks to be only thirteen or fourteen years old, her figure is quite thin, her facial features have not yet developed, she looks childish, and her crying is even more pear-like and rainy.

Nie Caizhu looked at Shen Luo with some embarrassment, raised her hand to stroke her hair, and comforted her softly: "Xiaochun, don't cry, am I fine?"

The maid named Xiaochun couldn't stop, she cried for a long time before finally raised her head sobbing.

"Miss, who is he?" She glanced at Shen Luo who was standing beside her own lady, and asked with some vigilance.

"This is... the person who saved me." Nie Caizhu wanted to introduce Shen Luo, but she opened her mouth and remembered that from the beginning until now, the young man in front of her has never mentioned her name.

"It turned out to be benefactor, thank you son for saving our young lady." Xiaochun's expression immediately changed when he heard this, and he quickly bowed to Shen Luo formally.

Chapter 0289 Over the Mountain Talisman

Shen Yuange, who had been standing by the carriage and watching the people, came forward at this moment and said, "Caizhu, Luo'er, this is not a place to talk, let's go home first."

"Uncle Shen, I've made you worry, we..." Nie Caizhu was halfway through speaking, when she suddenly realized something was wrong, she stopped talking and froze in place.

She glanced back and forth between Shen Luo and Shen Yuan Pavilion a few times, and suddenly realized that the eyebrows and eyes of the two were somewhat similar, and their expressions became more and more strange for a while.

"What's the matter? Caizhu, what's wrong?" Shen Yuange asked in confusion when he saw this.

"Miss Nie, I didn't have time to tell you my name. My name is Shen Luo, and I'm your fiancé." Before Nie Caizhu could answer, Shen Luo looked at her and said with a gentle smile on his face.

"Are you... Shen Luo?" Nie Caizhu immediately remembered what she had said on the way back when she heard the words, and was immediately embarrassed. Two patches of redness quickly rose on the cheeks on both sides, and spread rapidly, until the redness reached the roots of the ears. behind.

"Wow, so you are my aunt?" Xiaochun stepped in without knowing it, adding another fire to the side.

Nie Caizhu clenched her sleeves tightly, hesitated for a moment in a panic, and immediately ran into the carriage without looking back.

"Hey, miss..." Xiaochun called out hastily, and chased after her.

"What's going on here?" Shen Yuange frowned slightly, looked at Shen Luo, and asked.

"I don't know either." Shen Luo pretended not to know.

Shen Yuange shook his head and chuckled, and led everyone back to Shen's house.

In the next few days, Nie Caizhu stayed in the house almost all day except for eating, as if deliberately avoiding sinking, and almost never looked at her even at the dinner table.

On the contrary, her personal maid, Xiao Chun, would stare straight at him every time she met Shen Luo, her eyes were full of reproach, which made Shen Luo feel a little embarrassed.

After a few days of leisure at home, Shen Luo resumed his practice, and continued to learn how to make talismans while practicing the Unknown Book of Heaven.

Before returning from Jianye, he also went to the Lubao Hall to buy spiritual materials and talisman paper.

It's just that the Sanyuan Zhenshui and Diyin Pills he bought had already spent most of his savings in order to practice in closed doors. In the end, he only bought a small amount of green frost talisman paper and a lot of yellow talisman paper.

After training for the day, Shen Luo took out a thin thread-bound book from the stone box and read it carefully.

This book is not something else, it is the ancient book of talismans handed down from his ancestors that was given to him by shopkeeper Hou when he passed by Shenxianju before.

Previously, he had only skimmed through it once and did not check the contents in detail. When he opened it today, he found that there was a brief introduction similar to a biography at the top of the page.

Completely different from the cursive handwriting on the content of the talismans later, the content of this biography is written in lines, and it is obviously not written by the same person.

After Shen Luo read it, he realized that this passage was added by the descendants of the Hou family, and it was written about the life stories of the ancestors of the Hou family.

It turned out that the ancestor of the Hou family was a wandering Taoist, and the specific inheritance of his teacher is no longer available. The Taoism he practiced has not been described too much. It seems that it is mainly based on the talisman. It seems that it does not belong to Xiaomao Mountain. A series of.

Taoist Yunyou has a similar role to Buddhist monks, but they travel the world as their practice. Along the way, they mainly preach and practice medicine. They also do some deeds of subduing demons and demons.

The first talisman recorded in the book is a talisman called "Guoshan Talisman".

When he first saw the name of this talisman, Shen Luo thought it was a mobile talisman that traveled across mountains and mountains. After reading the introduction carefully, he realized that this talisman was a kind of talisman to detect evil spirits.

Because Yunyou Taoists practice on the road, they often have to walk in inaccessible mountains and rivers. Such places usually have mountain spirits and ghosts. This mountain crossing talisman can sense the approach of monsters in advance, and then emit light to warn monks.

In terms of efficacy, it is somewhat similar to the demon-detecting bell, one is that the stronger the demon energy is or the closer it is, the louder the bell will be, and the other is that the light emitted will be brighter.

This talisman is highly targeted, and has no way of perceiving evil spirits, but is only sensitive to evil spirits.

Its rank is not too high, and there are no special requirements for talisman paper and talisman ink. Ordinary yellow talisman paper and cinnabar talisman ink can be drawn, and advanced purple cloud talisman paper can also be drawn, but the strength of the effect varies.

In addition to the "Mountain Passing Talisman", several kinds of Talismans commonly used by wandering Taoist priests are recorded in this talisman book. Among them, the ones that Shen Luo cares most about are the "Clean Wind Breaking Barrier Talisman" and "Shenxing Armored Horse Talisman".

Among them, the Qingfeng Obstacle Breaking Talisman uses the power of the Talisman to attract the breeze containing the awe-inspiring aura of heaven and earth to blow away the mist and miasma.

The Shenxingjia horse talisman is even more different, its rune style is completely different from other talismans, at first glance it doesn't look like words at all, but looks like a picture of a horse drawn in thick ink.

It's just that in the thick ink, you can see the flowing lines, and there are faint traces of ancient seal characters, which look like characters and paintings, and the shape is like a horse raising its hooves, with its mane flying, just like the galloping posture of four hooves.

When using it, you need to ignite the talisman paper with mana, and then recite the mantra silently. The burned paper ash will wrap around its feet, making it effortless and fast like riding a horse, and can travel thousands of miles a day.

"When you walk a hundred steps, the ground shrinks by itself. Every mountain is flat, and when it meets water, it dries up. I am ordered by Mr. Three Mountains and Nine Marquises to take photos!" Shen Luo then silently recited a mantra contained in it, his eyes flickering slightly.

He has also heard of Mr. Sanshan Jiuhou's name for a long time. Although his true identity has always been a mystery, he is still regarded as a patriarch by all the wandering Taoists in the world and respects him.

Many of the talismans used by Yunyou Taoists also came from Mr. Sanshan Jiuhou, among which are the familiar "Shenxing Jiama Talisman" and "Five Ghosts Carrying Talisman".

In addition to these three kinds of talismans, there are four other kinds of talismans recorded in the thread-bound ancient books, but compared with the previous three, they seem a little unreliable, including the one that was torn off by the shopkeeper. Lucky and treasure talisman".

The extradition talisman of peach blossoms, the talisman of storing yang and nourishing one's body, the talisman of five spirits and birth control, plus that talisman of attracting wealth and wealth, no matter how you look at it... they all look like they are used by Taoists wandering in the sky to cheat people to make ends meet. Shen Luo is really not interested in this. , I didn't pay much attention to it.

For the first three kinds of talismans, he planned to try to draw them.

However, the rank of the Qingfeng Obstacle Breaking Talisman is slightly higher than that of ordinary Obstacle Breaking Talismans, and it needs to be drawn on green frost paper in order to store enough mana, and then attract a larger wind of heaven and earth to break through the fog and poisonous miasma.

Chapter 0290 The Miracle of Buddha Light

Although Shen Luo still had a lot of blue frost talisman papers, they were still a bit stretched for drawing the thunderbolt talisman, so naturally he couldn't separate them out to draw the Qingfeng barrier breaking talisman.

Although the Shenxing Jiama Talisman does not have any specific requirements for the paper, the ink it needs is somewhat special, and there is a spiritual material called "Earth Star Grass".

Shen Luo had seen this thing in Lubaotang before, it wasn't too precious a spirit herb, but he didn't know what it was useful for at the time, so he didn't buy it, but now in Chunhua County, he definitely can't buy it of.

After a little screening, Shen Luo found that the only thing he could try to draw at the moment was the Mountain Crossing Talisman.

After Shen Luo was ready, he began to draw the Mountain Crossing Talisman.

Compared with other talismans drawn by him in the past, this talisman has a lower rank and less difficulty.

He was able to practice for just ten days, and the talisman had already begun to take on air.

This morning, after Shen Luo finished meditating, he planned to continue practicing talismans, but before he could start, he was interrupted by a knock on the door.

He opened the door and found that Nie Caizhu was standing under the eaves with her maid Xiaochun.

"Miss Nie, what's the matter?" Shen Luo asked with a smile.

Nie Caizhu showed hesitation on her face, and seemed a little difficult to speak.

"Gu...Young master, my young lady wants to go to Yuanzhu Temple to pay pilgrimage, and would like to ask if you can escort her for a ride." Xiaochun, a "uncle", almost blurted out, and quickly changed his words.
