"Forehead……"
Shen Luo wondered if the old man had taken the wrong medicine. I didn't say a word, so why did he have any fate with me?
He looked at the old man and said calmly: "Old man, where did you pick up this Sutra of Immortality? Do you have any follow-up techniques?"
The old man was surprised when he heard the words of the young man in front of him. He thought that the other party wanted to ask him a lot of things, but instead he just asked him if he had any follow-up skills.
"Of course, this method was obtained by me in a secret realm in the human world. This method may be an immortal method or a method from the spiritual world."
"Why do you say that? That's because it can ignore the spiritual root attributes and can be cultivated as long as it has spiritual roots."
"Not only that, as long as you practice to a great level, you can awaken a magical power. Unfortunately, this method is incomplete and can only be practiced to the stage of transformation into gods." The old man said with a little regret, stroking his long white beard.
When he heard the other party say that this skill was incomplete, he also felt that it was a pity. After all, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, but it was better than nothing.
He immediately had the idea of continuing to practice this method, and said: "Then give it to me. My book only has the formulas for the Qi refining period."
"Oh, okay!" The old man nodded.
After speaking, he waved his hand and an ancient book flew out from somewhere in the room and floated in front of Shen Luo.
Shen Luo looked at the ancient book floating in front of him and took it in his hand.
After looking through it briefly, put it in the storage bag.
"Hey, where's the person?" Shen Luo just put away the ancient book and looked up to find that the old man was gone again.
"What a weird old man."
Shen Luo shook his head and walked out of the house. Now he was going to Heiyun Town to find his parents.
Heiyun Town is a small town beside the Heishui River. It is located in a remote place with the Heiyun Mountains as its backdrop.
Today, a family named Shen in the town is hosting a banquet in the courtyard of his home. The small courtyard is full of people and lively.
At this time, a man in white clothes was standing at the gate of the Shen family compound.
The man was Shenluo who came to the town from the village. Looking at the open door in front of him, he froze on the spot and didn't know whether he should go in or not.
Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps coming from the door, and I don't know what the reason was.
He leapt up and hid in the tree, staring at the courtyard door, only to see a middle-aged man and woman walking out.
Shen Luo, who was hiding in the tree, never expected that the middle-aged man and woman who came out would be the parents he had longed to see all the time.
His body trembled violently, and he wanted to go down and meet them immediately, but he thought of what Goudan had said to him before, and began to hesitate again.
If his parents really gave up on him, wouldn't it be very...
Just when Shen Luo was hiding in the tree and hesitating, the sound of a carriage driving suddenly came to his ears.
"It's coming, it's coming!" Father Shen said excitedly as he looked at the carriage driving not far away.
Shen's mother looked at the carriage driving here and couldn't help but recall the scene when Shen Luo left in the carriage.
Thinking of this, her eyes turned red, and she said with great sadness: "His father, do you think Xiaoluo will come back this year? This child has been out for three years, and I don't know if he has lived well in the past three years."
Shen Luo's heart trembled when he heard his mother's words of missing him.
It turns out that his parents did not abandon him and still remember him. In this case, Na Ho's letter to him was very indifferent to him.
Just when Shen Luo was very surprised, Father Shen saw that his wife looked sad and her eyes were red, so he quickly spoke to comfort him: "Don't worry, there are people taking care of Xiaoluo at Heiqiongmen. Besides, he has been there for a few months." Didn't he say that in the letter he wrote before? He is fine at home, so let us not miss him."
"Presumably he is busy with family affairs, so he has no spare time to write letters. Don't think too much about it."
"What? A letter I wrote?"
After hearing his father's words, Shen Luo recalled his previous life in Black Qiongmen. It seemed that he hadn't written a letter for a long time.
Since Mr. Zhao returned to the valley, he has never written a letter again. Not only that, he has not received any letters from home since then.
Soon, the carriage driving on the road sped along and stopped in front of the Shen family gate.
"Second brother!" Father Shen shouted as he looked at the middle-aged man getting off the carriage.
Shen Luo looked for his father and saw that the middle-aged man was his second uncle whom he had not seen for a long time.
"Brother, I went to the Black Qiong Sect before. They said Xiaoluo left the sect." Shen Luo's second uncle came to his father and said apologetically.
"Ah, this... what's going on? How could this kid leave the sect so well?" When Father Shen heard the news, his expression changed drastically and he became panicked.
"I don't know this either. I've only seen him a few times in the past few years, but then an old man named Zhao told me."
"Xiaoluo is going to start practicing in seclusion. During this period, he will cut off all contact with the outside world, which can be as short as a few months or as long as a year. Please let me not disturb him if he has nothing to do."
"In that period of time, I didn't visit Xiaoluo much, for fear of disturbing him. However, letters written by Xiaoluo were sent to me every month, asking me to bring them to you."
"Mr. Zhao?" Shen Luo heard his second uncle's words and understood instantly.
His letters may have been tampered with by Mr. Zhao. Ever since Mr. Zhao found out that he had spiritual roots, he had been imprisoned in the valley to practice.
It is possible that Mr. Zhao tampered with the contents of the letter in order to prevent him from missing his family and fearing that they would leave the valley and sneak out.
After thinking about this and understanding the whole story, Shen Luo suddenly realized that he did not jump immediately to meet his parents.
Instead, he continued to hide in the tree and watch blankly. Now he was about to change his mind.
He knew very well that since he practiced the Sutra of Immortality and learned about the existence of immortal cultivators, sooner or later he would have to embark on a completely different path from ordinary people.
In this case, there is no need to meet his family. Anyway, people have seen that if he continues to stay here, I am afraid he will be reluctant to leave.
"Not meeting each other is the best outcome. Let them think I'm missing. That's fine." Shen Luo thought to himself.
He watched silently from the tree, as he imprinted his parents' faces deeply in his heart.
A look of determination suddenly appeared on his face, and he disappeared from the tree and landed in someone else's yard.
Then he came out of the yard and walked onto another road towards the outside of the town.
He knew that when he walked out of this small town, his interactions with these people might end here in this life, and maybe this farewell would be forever.
Yuzhou is the smallest state capital in the country of Zhao.
It is located in the northern part of Zhao State, and there are countless waterways within its jurisdiction. Not only that, but there is also an ancient canal next to it.
Lanzhou City is a city in the middle of Yuzhou. Because the river in the city runs through the north and south, it is one of the important channels for water transport hub commerce.
Countless merchants and travelers pass by here every year, which greatly boosts the economic activities here.
This Lanzhou City is the same as the previous Musu Town. The city is controlled by two major gangs, namely the Tiger Gang and the Hungry Wolf Gang.
Zhouqiao Wharf is a very inconspicuous wharf within the territory of the Tiger Gang.
At this time, several men were gathering together on the pier. They were standing on the pier, as if waiting for something.
At this time, a short, thin, and extremely wretched-looking man walked slowly towards the dock with his hands behind his back.
This person's name is Zhang Defa, because he is good at observing words and emotions, and he can flatter horses with his beard.
Instead, he was allowed to get involved with a leader who managed a small dock within the Tiger Gang's sphere of influence, and was in charge of several people.
When his men saw Zhang Defa coming here, they hurriedly came over and called him respectfully:
"Good morning, Mr. Zhang!"
"Master Zhang, you are here!"
