big dream master

"Don't be busy, I came to you because I have something to explain." Shen Luo waved his hand hurriedly and said.

Seeing his solemn expression, Shen Yuange sat back down again.

Shen Luo sorted out the stack of rice paper in his hand, quickly divided it into three parts of different thickness, and placed them in front of Shen Yuange.

"This is?" Shen Yuange asked in surprise.

"I have traveled abroad in recent years. Although I have not read a lot of books, I have read some rare books and ancient books that have been handed down from ancient times. Some of these medical books have benefited me a lot. This paper is a copy of some of them that have been lost. Our pharmacy can make pills and decoctions in the future, so it can be regarded as our secret recipe handed down." Shen Luo pointed to a stack of rice paper on the left and said.

Most of the proven prescriptions above come from the lost medical classic "Golden Chamber" that he read on Fangcun Mountain.

When Shen Yuange heard the words, his eyes lit up immediately, he quickly took the stack of rice paper, and carefully looked at the densely packed words on it, the more he turned it back, the more joyful his face became.

Seeing this, Shen Luo showed a smile on his face, just watched quietly, without saying a word to disturb.

"Luo'er, most of these scriptures are only mentioned in ancient books, and many of them have been lost for hundreds of years. Where did you find them?" Shen Yuange said excitedly.

"Leave this alone, I have other things to explain." Shen Luo pressed his father's hand and said.

Shen Yuange also felt that he had lost his composure, so he smiled and carefully put the scripture paper aside.

"On these two stacks of papers, I recorded the two basic exercises I learned. One is called "Xiaohuayang Gong" and the other is called "Qingtian Peiyuan Gong". Practice." Shen Luo said.

Of these two exercises, one is the basic exercise of the Spring and Autumn View, and the other is obtained in Fangcun Mountain. The latter has not been practiced by Shen Luo, but after reading it, he also wrote down its contents.

Hearing this, Shen Yuange was startled for a while, then lowered his voice and asked: "Is this the secret book of cultivating immortals?"

Chapter 0368

"It's not that much, it's just some basic exercises for strengthening the foundation and cultivating the body." Shen Luo shook his head and said.

"Okay, I've made a note." Shen Yuange nodded.

"Although it's just a basic skill, it's different from the tricks of the rivers and lakes. Once the news is leaked, it will inevitably attract others to covet it. If I'm not at home at that time, it will definitely be an unprovoked disaster, so remember to keep it secret." Shen Luo warned .

"I know the pros and cons of this, and I will strictly keep it a secret." Shen Yuange said solemnly.

"In addition, when these two kinds of exercises are handed over to the children of the clan to practice, they must first examine their temperament and character. Those who have misbehavior should not be passed on lightly. Or...you can temporarily hand them over to Shen Ci and Mu Mu brothers and sisters Two try to cultivate, the others will wait and see." Shen Luo said while thinking.

As for what he was waiting for, he didn't say anything, but he actually wanted to wait for some of Shen Ci's brothers and sisters to understand the dharma nature, and then he would teach them the nameless exercises.

"Okay, I will do as you wish." Shen Yuange nodded heavily and said.

After finishing speaking, he carried a small lacquered wooden box from the room, carefully bumped three stacks of rice paper filled with scriptures and exercises, carefully locked it, and put it in a secret compartment .

After explaining everything, the two, who hadn't chatted for a long time, sat in the study and talked for a long time.

At the end, Shen Luo suddenly mentioned that he wanted to eat Yuqian rice, but unfortunately it was not the right season.

In the early morning of the second day, Shen Luo didn't say goodbye to anyone, but hurried out of the county town with the stone box containing the items.

……

Time flies, it is three months later.

It was the end of April, and Yuzhou was at the end of the rainy season. The rainy days had rested for a while, and there was still a layer of cloud in the sky.

Dali Mountain in Pingqiu County is covered with a layer of hazy mist. From a distance, the peaks and peaks are blurred, but the nearby ones are full of moist green color, and a gray and white mountain road is hidden in it, meandering.

On some muddy mountain roads, a tall and straight figure wearing a hat and cloak appeared, walking unhurriedly, leading a black horse behind him, and rushed towards the end of the mountain road.

At the end of the mountain road, a two-story black wooden building can be seen in the distance. In the front yard stands a wooden pole three or four feet high, with a banner hanging on it, with a big word "wine" written on it.

The man led the horse to the front of the yard, and saw a young man who looked like a waiter, pouring hay into the manger, and several horses were tied to the hitching post next to him.

When Xiao Er heard the sound of horseshoes behind him, he quickly dumped the fodder in the dustpan and turned around to meet him.

"Guest officer, do you want to play the tip or stay in the hotel?" He asked while taking the reins familiarly.

The man took off his bamboo hat, revealing a rather delicate young face, it was Shen Luo.

"Stay in the hotel." Shen Luo smiled and said.

The waiter quickly tied the black horse to the manger, and led the way to the black wooden building.

There are several steps in front of the building, and a thick cotton curtain is hung on the door. The waiter opened the curtain and made a gesture of invitation sideways, letting Shen Luo go in first.

Shen Luo stepped over the threshold and walked in, wrinkling his nose slightly, smelling a rather strong aroma of wine.

He glanced again, and found that the space inside was not very big. On the right side near the door, there was a half-person-high counter, and a stack of mud-covered wine jars were stacked on the shelf behind it.

There are seven or eight blackened tables in the room, with oily shine on them, obviously old objects that have been used for many years.

On the wall facing the gate, there are three windows, and a wooden table is placed next to each of them. On a table in the middle, a young man in a blue brocade robe is sitting sideways. Holding the wine glass, he turned his head and looked out the window.

Shen Luo glanced at it, then came to the counter, talked to the short and fat shopkeeper standing behind, and booked a room on the second floor.

"Guest officer, should I take you up to rest right now, or should I have something to eat first? Our mountain inn doesn't have any delicacies from mountains and seas, but there are some decent game, and the homemade plum wine tastes pretty good too." The fat shopkeeper asked with a smile.

"The shopkeeper has recommended it so hard, so I naturally have to try it out." Shen Luo smiled.

"Okay, I'm sure you're satisfied." Hearing this, the shopkeeper laughed even more.

Shen Luo ordered a few dishes and ordered a jug of green plum wine, then went to another table by the window and sat down, he also turned his head and looked out the window like the young man in brocade robe.

Seeing this, his eyes couldn't help but brighten up, and his gaze couldn't be retracted for a long time.

It turned out that there was a cliff of hundreds of feet right next to the window, and the cliffs of the cliff extended in an arc from both sides behind the inn, each forming a huge semicircle, and then meeting thousands of feet away.

The inn was actually built facing a huge tiankeng with a diameter of thousands of feet.

Inside the tiankeng, green and dense vegetation can still be seen, and the inside is filled with mist and smoke waves rising, and the scenery is actually beautiful.

"The scenery here is pretty good, right?" At this moment, a gentle voice suddenly sounded.

Shen Luo looked around, and found that the young man at the next table was talking to him, and when he was about to answer, he froze on the spot.

I saw the man with long, smooth water-blue hair tied up with a white jade crown, and a handsome young face. Although there were no short horns on his forehead, Shen Luo still recognized him at a glance. Donghai Ao Hong, the Ninth Prince of the Dragon Palace!

"Why him? Why did he appear here? Could it be that he came here for the Blue-eyed Golden Toad as well?" Many questions popped up in Shen Luo's mind.

According to the records in the travel notes, the blue-eyed golden toad haunts the tiankeng in Dali Mountain, Pingqiu County, Yuzhou.

"Ahem..." Seeing that Shen Luo was in a daze, Ao Hong seemed to feel a little embarrassed, and coughed softly.

Only then did Shen Luo come back to his senses, cupped his fists and said, "I didn't react for a while, sorry."

"It was me who spoke up suddenly, it was abrupt." Ao Hong clasped his fists in return, smiling gently.

At this time, the shop waiter had already brought a pot of green plum wine to Shen Luo.

"We are traveling alone, young master, do you mind sitting at the same table and have a drink?" Shen Luo moved slightly in his heart, lifted the jug, walked to Ao Hong's table, and asked with a smile.

"Your Excellency, I can't ask for it. I don't know what to call your son, Ao Hong, who is in the East China Sea." Ao Hong was slightly taken aback, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled.

"I'm Shen Luo, from Dengzhou." Seeing that he told her by his real name, Shen Luo immediately replied.

At this moment, he also understands that the reason why Ao Hong recognizes him after thousands of years is probably due to this accidental meeting.

"Dengzhou...that's not close to Yuzhou, why did Brother Shen come here?" Ao Hong asked after thinking about it.

Chapter 0369

"I have always liked to travel. I originally wanted to go to the East Bay to see the vast sea scenery. When I was passing through Pingqiu County, I heard people say that the tiankeng in Dali Mountain is beautiful, so I rushed here. After seeing it this time, it really is It was a worthwhile trip." Shen Luo twitched his brows slightly, as if thinking of something, while talking, he raised his wine glass to respect the beautiful scenery outside the window, and drank it all in one gulp.

The green plum wine entered his throat, a slightly sour and sweet taste, and then a strange smell of hot wine, spreading between his tongue and throat, which made him raise his eyebrows in surprise.

"Hehe, I can't see anything in the daytime now. At night, the moonlight in the Tiankeng is amazing. It's just that it's been raining continuously during this time. If it's covered by thick clouds at night, I won't be able to see anything." Ao Hong also poured himself a drink.

At this time, the food at the inn was served one after another, and Shen Luo chatted and drank with Ao Hong.

After three rounds of drinking and five tastes of food, the two chatted speculatively. At this moment, there was a sound of disorderly footsteps at the door. They turned their heads at the same time, and saw that the cotton curtain outside the door had been lifted, and a few people walked in. personal.

These people were all wearing thick coir raincoats and bamboo hats on their heads. After entering the house, they all took off one by one, and put them down against the door and against the wall.

The leader of them is a tall, short-bearded old man with piercing eyes and looks hale and hearty, and the other two pale-faced young men with sick faces, their appearance and stature are about the same, they look like twins .

Apart from these three people, there is also a woman with exquisite figure, but her face is covered with a layer of black veil, so she can't see her face clearly.

Under the straw coir raincoats, the four people were all wearing brown bunt clothes, with circles of hemp ropes as thick as thumbs coiled around their waists, and the feet and legs were covered with mud, as if they had just walked through the muddy mountains.

"Yo, shopkeeper Chen, is there a new customer in the shop?" The old man with short beards in charge glanced at the two of them, and said with a smile.

Judging from that tone, it seems that he is very familiar with the short and fat shopkeeper of the inn.

"Brother Lu, it's not because of the popularity you brought after you came here. Otherwise, at this time of year, apart from you swallow pickers, where would anyone be willing to come to this remote place?" The chubby shopkeeper said with a smile.

"Swallow picker?" Shen Luo was slightly surprised.

He is no stranger to this business, even collecting bird's nests for sale, and the pharmacy in their family often deals with bird pickers.

"Haha, it's still the same. Warm a few pots of wine, prepare a few dishes, and bring them to the room. The air leaks from all sides in this hall, and the blowing makes people's bones shudder. It's so cold." The short-bearded old man greeted , and walked upstairs on his own.

The other three also followed upstairs.

It's just that the masked woman walking at the end, when she climbed the stairs, glanced towards the window seemingly without knowing whether she was looking at Shen Luo or Ao Hong.

"I really feel a little cold after being told by that old man. Shopkeeper Chen, please help warm up this pot of wine." Shen Luo said, wrapped his cloak around his body, and shouted to the shopkeeper.

"Okay." The waiter had already gone to the back kitchen to help, and the shopkeeper rushed over by himself.

Seeing him approaching, Shen Luo pretended to ask casually:

"Speaking of February and March, it is the rainy season. Insects reproduce vigorously. The swallows have enough food and saliva secretion. The quality of the bird's nests is the best. leave?"

"The guest officer said it was an ordinary swiftlet. On the cliffs of the Tiankeng in our Dali Mountain, there lived a special group of swiftlets called 'Swifts'. They secreted saliva and built nests one hour later than swiftlets. Yue, now is the right time." Shopkeeper Chen explained with a smile after hearing this.

"So that's the case, I'm ignorant." Shen Luo nodded and said.

"The reason is that the quality of Swift's bird's nest is not as good as Swiftlet's. They don't have a reputation, so the guest officials don't know about it. Speaking of which, they only come to collect it at this time every year." Shopkeeper Chen said with a smile.

After finishing speaking, he also went to get busy preparing meals for those people.

Shen Luo chatted with Ao Hong casually, and glanced at the scenery outside the window from time to time.

At the same time, in a guest room upstairs, the four swallow pickers were sitting around a table.

"Those two people next to the downstairs window, if I read correctly, they are all practitioners, and I'm afraid they came here after the blue-eyed golden toad." The old man with short beard looked serious, without the slightest smile, and said .

"If you dare to rob us, just kill him." Two young men with pale faces looked at each other and said in unison.

"Hmph, it's easy to kill people. Do you know their background? Is there anyone else supporting them? What if they cause more trouble?" The woman still covered her face and snorted coldly.

"Fellow Daoist Yu Xin is right. The current situation is unclear, so don't act rashly." The short-bearded old man nodded and said.

"Senior Tong Guan, let's not talk about this first, are we really sure to find Biyan Jinchan this time?" The masked woman named Yu Xin raised her eyebrows slightly and asked.

"We have been squatting here for five consecutive years. The golden toad will only show up once when it is shocked by thunder at the end of the rainy season. We have missed opportunities every time before. This time we set up traps in advance, and we will definitely not let them Escape." The short-bearded old man named Tong Guan clenched his fists and said with burning eyes.

"That's good. As long as I successfully complete the task this time, I can enter the main altar and meet the Holy Master, right?" Yu Xin asked eagerly.

"Don't worry about this, if you can win the Golden Toad, your achievements will naturally be enough to meet the Holy Master." Tong Guan nodded.

After Yu Xin received this satisfactory answer, she left and went back to her room.

"Tong Lao, I always feel that this surname Yu can't be trusted?" The two young men spoke again, and said together again.

"She has only been in our body training altar for a short time, so we really have to be careful. But we can see that she is really fascinated by the general altar in the past few days, and she is never sloppy in doing things. It's a wonderful move." Tong Guan said slowly.

"After the use is over...can I?" One of the two young men asked independently for the first time.

"Feng Shan, there's a knife on Sezi's head, can't you just eat shit?" Another person said with an angry look.

"Feng Shui, brother is just having fun, so you still want to take care of it?" the person in front muttered dissatisfied.

"Okay, let's wait until this task is completed. No one is allowed to cause trouble for me during this period, otherwise none of us will have any good fruit to eat." Tong Guan sternly shouted, and the two brothers immediately shut up honestly.

After a moment of silence, Tong Guan sighed silently: "Everything is ready, just waiting for the thunder."

Chapter 0370 Message

At night, Shen Luo sat alone in front of the window of the guest room, a dim oil lamp was lit on the table next to the window, and a piece of purple talisman paper and three pieces of cyan talisman paper were placed on the table.

The runes of the Broken Armor Talisman were drawn on the purple talisman paper, and the Thunderbolt Talisman was drawn on the three pieces of green frost paper, all of which had already been formed, and were all drawn by Shen Luo on his way to Yuzhou.

Among them, the Thunderbolt Talisman was not bad. Although the success rate of the Talisman was not high, all it consumed was green frost paper, but the Armor Smashing Talisman consumed all the more precious purple cloud paper.

Although Shen Luo has experience in drawing talismans in dreams, and has practiced thousands of times on white and yellow talisman papers, when he actually draws, he still consumes all the purple cloud paper he bought with all his savings, and finally forms the talisman Such a piece.

He stared at the cloud-covered sky outside the window, and could only see a blur of light hidden in the clouds, and the tiankeng below was pitch black, and he couldn't see anything clearly.

According to the records in the travel notes, the blue-eyed Golden Toad is the bloodline of the Moon Palace Jade Toad, and was born able to absorb the moon soul through moon-watching cultivation, so the extremely pure moon soul essence is accumulated in the body.
