Shituoling is within the territory of Xiniu Hezhou, not too far from Wuzhuang Temple, so the suspicion is indeed very big.

Thinking of this, Shen Luo's heart felt relieved, and he didn't excuse the Tang government. He could see things, and the guide Taoist who recognized the yin and yang qi could not have thought of it.

Jieyin Taoist did think of Shituoling from the yin and yang, but Shituoling and Wuzhuang Temple are both big sects in Hezhou, Xiniu. Without conclusive evidence, you can't make accusations at will.

"Thanks to the three fellow Taoists for cracking the secret of the demonic poison." The Taoist guide then looked at the three of them and thanked them.

"It's a trivial matter, it's good to be able to find out the ins and outs of this matter." Shen Luo said.

"Now it seems that this matter has nothing to do with Fellow Daoist Shen. It is someone with a heart trying to set the blame on him. Please forgive me, Fellow Daoist Shen." The leading Taoist sincerely apologized to Shen Luo.

Chapter 1143 The Lord of Tianji City

"The thieves are cunning. It is also based on common sense to speculate on leading seniors and others. It is inevitable to have doubts about the subordinates. Fortunately, the matter has been clarified now." Shen Luo waved his hands.

Qin Shan and Li He were also here, and under the signal of the Taoist guide, they also expressed their apologies to Shen Luo, but Qin Shan's expression was very reluctant, and Shen Luo didn't care.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, there is still some of the source of the Earth Mother left. This is yours, please keep it well." Wu Man'er came to Shen Luo and handed over the porcelain bottle.

Shen Luo's spiritual sense probed into the bottle, and there was still half of the bottle left, and he couldn't help but feel secretly happy.

"Friend Wu Dao, are you okay?" He put away the porcelain bottle and asked.

Jiang Shentian no longer put mana into Wu Man'er's body, her face became pale again, and it was a little paler than before.

"It's okay, it's just that the consumption is a bit high." Wu Man'er shook his head and said.

"Thank you for your hard work, Fellow Daoist Wu. This is the elixir of my Wuzhuang Temple, Rejuvenation Pill, which is very effective in restoring vitality. If you don't mind it, fellow Daoist Wu, please take it." The Taoist guide took out a small white jade bottle and handed it over.

Wu Man'er was not polite either, and took the vial.

"Fellow Daoist Wu, rest first. Later, I will fetch the ginseng fruit tree stock solution and send it to you," said the Taoist priest.

"Then I'll trouble you to pick up seniors." Wu Man'er was indeed a little tired, and after thanking her, she left here accompanied by Qingfeng Mingyue.

"Fellow Daoist Shen and Fellow Daoist Jiang, you have worked hard too." The leading Taoist turned and said to Shen Luo and the two of them.

Shen Luo and Jiang Shentian walked fast all the way and were quite tired, so they didn't refuse and went down to rest.

Shen Luo's residence was still the same as before. After he rearranged the restraints, he sat down cross-legged in the secret room and practiced with his eyes closed.

He also did not take out one yuan of true water to practice, but to run the nameless exercises to stabilize the realm.

During the recent period of time, his cultivation base has continuously improved, and his foundation is a bit vain. Next, he will hit the stage of true immortality, and he needs to lay a solid foundation.

Shen Luo originally planned to take that Fenglei Xianzao in the near future to improve his cultivation and physical training, but in the current situation, he could only take it after laying a solid foundation.

The night passed quickly, Shen Luo opened his eyes and was about to get up.

"Who?" He suddenly looked out to the side hall and shouted.

"Shen Xiaoyou has a keen spiritual sense." With a chuckle, a figure walked in, it was Zhen Yuanzi.

And at this moment, Zhen Yuanzi is not a clone transformed from a talisman, but a real person.

"Senior Zhen Yuanzi, you are back." Shen Luo hurriedly stood up, surprised.

He was not surprised that Zhen Yuanzi was able to break through the restriction outside his house. Zhen Yuanzi's cultivation base had already reached the realm of Heavenly Venerable, and breaking the restriction he set up was not easy. He wondered what Zhen Yuanzi was looking for him at this moment.

"I just came back from Heaven, and I have already heard about the ginseng fruit tree. Thank you, little friend Shen, for your great help." Zhen Yuanzi bowed slightly and saluted him.

Faced with the solemn salute of a heavenly master, Shen Luo naturally didn't dare to take it too seriously, and hastily returned the salute, saying: "It's all small things, I shouldn't be thanking you like this, senior."

"Xiaoyou Shen has nothing to do with Wuzhuang Temple. He was led to make things difficult for them and misunderstood him earlier, but he ignored the previous suspicions and went to the godswood forest to get the source of the earth mother and save the ginseng fruit tree. With this great kindness, the poor As the master of Wuzhuang Temple, Tao naturally has to come to the door to express his thanks, and he has just fulfilled the etiquette." Zhen Yuanzi said slowly.

Hearing this, Shen Luo had a good impression of Zhen Yuanzi. He was just a small man in the Mahayana period, but Zhen Yuanzi didn't overwhelm others with power at all, and just talked about the matter. This is the real demeanor of a Taoist immortal, which makes people heartbroken.

"Senior, you're being polite. I didn't do all these things for the sake of Wuzhuang Temple, but mainly to clear up my suspicions. I wonder if senior can find out the source of the devil's poison and yin and yang energy?" Shen Luo didn't want to worry about this matter. Talk more, and asked in a changed tone.

"I've already seen it, and the cloud of Yin-Yang Qi really came from the Yin-Yang two cylinders in Shituoling." Zhen Yuanzi said slowly.

"Shituoling really did it!" Shen Luo's complexion changed slightly, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

"Let's not talk about those things. Xiaoyou Shen has spent so much time and effort on Wuzhuang Temple. If there is no expression, Pindao feels uneasy. I don't know if there is anything you want? Or what you want to do, Pindao and Wuzhuang Temple will definitely help with all its strength," Zhen Yuanzi said.

Shen Luo was stunned for a moment, what he wanted most now was naturally to repair the jade pillow, but Zhen Yuanzi had already said that there was nothing he could do.

"Since senior Zhenyuan is so loving, I am not hypocritical. My body was infected by demon energy a few days ago, and I need some pure yang magic weapon to protect my mind." He said after a little consideration.

"Pure Yang Magic Treasure? That's really a coincidence. Pindao has a Panlong Wall in his hand. It is a pure Yang treasure that he got in his early years. It is the skeleton of a Yuyang Shenlong after death. It has the effect of protecting the mind and spirit. Give it to Xiaoyou Shen." Zhen Yuanzi took out a dark red jade pendant and handed it over.

The shape of the jade pendant is clumsy, resembling a crouching red dragon. There are strange patterns carved on the body of the dragon. Although it looks rough, it exudes vitality. The dragon-shaped jade pendant almost seems to be alive.

But the most important thing is that this thing is hot to the touch, but not hot to the touch, a pure yang force penetrated directly into Shen Luo's body, making him feel certain about it.

"Good stuff!" Shen Luo's eyes lit up.

The pure yang power contained in this dragon wall is really no small matter, it is by no means inferior to today's pure yang flying sword, and this thing seems to have a miraculous effect on protecting the mind, and it will definitely play a big role in fighting against demon energy in the future.

"Thank you Senior Zhen Yuanzi, this thing is of great use to me." He put away the Panlong Wall and thanked him sincerely.

"It's just a piece of Panlong Wall. It's nothing. It's a bit light to use it to repay my little friend. I'm in Heaven this time, and I asked you about the restoration of the jade pillow, and I got some clues." Zhen Yuanzi Said.

"Really?" Shen Luo was overjoyed when he heard the words.

"The restriction contained in your jade pillow may involve the laws of time and space. It is absolutely difficult for ordinary craftsmen to repair it. Today, there is probably only one person who can repair that jade pillow." Zhen Yuanzi said.

"Who is it? I also ask Senior Zhen Yuanzi to enlighten me." Shen Luo bowed and made a big gift.

"The identity of that person is not very secretive. You may have seen him before. He is the Lord of Tianji City. You can go to Tianji City to find opportunities." Zhen Yuanzi said.

"City Master Tianji? Thank you Senior Zhen Yuanzi for your guidance." Shen Luo muttered to himself before thanking him again.

Zhen Yuanzi didn't say anything important to Shen Luo afterwards, instead he had a brief chat with Shen Luo, and then gave him some pointers on his cultivation before leaving.

Shen Luo stood quietly in the room for a while, did not go out, continued to turn around and went back to the secret room to practice.

In the next few days, he practiced quietly in Wuzhuang Temple, polishing his unstable foundation due to the skyrocketing cultivation.

Wuzhuang Temple's attitude towards Shen Luo has changed drastically, and they are extremely friendly, hosting banquets almost every day.

After seven or eight days like this, the foundation of Shen Luo's cultivation gradually became firm, and then he took his leave and left.

Chapter 1144 The Invitation of Yunmengze

Outside Wuzhuang Temple, on the stone path winding down the mountain.

Shen Luo didn't fly directly in the air, but walked down the mountain slowly with his hands behind his back, feeling the gentle mountain breeze along the way, thinking about the gains and losses of this trip to Wuzhuang Temple in his mind.

Originally, saving the ginseng fruit tree would have brought this matter to an end, but when Shituoling was involved, Shen Luo felt a little uneasy, so he planned to go to Shituoling before going to Tianji City.

First, he wanted to investigate the situation of the yin and yang gas cylinders, and second, he wanted to see Fu Donglai.

Ever since the Three Realms Martial Arts Meeting, Fu Donglai had returned to Shituoling, saying that he wanted to investigate the appearance of the Moxu Dilong in the secret realm, but after he left, the two lost contact.

In addition, Shen Luo also wanted to know the results of his investigation.

He always felt that there seemed to be no connection between these things, but there seemed to be a hidden thread connecting them inside.

"Brother Shen..." While he was thinking, a woman's voice suddenly came from behind Shen Luo.

Accompanied by a pleasant silver bell ringing lightly.

"Miss Man'er, don't you plan to stay for a few more days?" Shen Luo asked in surprise.

"Brother Shen, I changed my mind and decided to go to Yunmeng Lake first." Wu Man'er chased after her and said with a smile.

"Yunmengze?" Shen Luo muttered to himself.

"I hope you can accompany me for a walk." Wu Man'er said bluntly.

Shen Luo was taken aback when he heard the words, a little surprised.

He subconsciously wanted to refuse, because the most important thing for him right now was to go to Tianji City and find a way to repair the jade pillow.

Going to Shituoling is just a drop-in.

As for Yunmengze, it was obviously not within the scope of his plan.

"Going to Yunmengze here, what's the danger?" But just when the words of refusal were about to be spoken, the words that came out changed.

"I don't know either." Wu Man'er shook her head in embarrassment.

Immediately afterwards, she added: "I have never been there before, but I just heard from the master that it is a swamp that is as large as the ocean."

"Why are you going there?" Shen Luo asked puzzled.

"Brother Shen, do you still remember why I came to Wuzhuang Temple?" Wu Man'er blinked and asked.

Shen Luo frowned slightly, and nodded.

Of course he remembered that Wu Man'er sneaked out of the Shenswood Forest and came to Wuzhuang Temple in order to obtain the original juice of the ginseng fruit tree.

"It is said that in the depths of Yunmengze, there is also a sacred ginkgo tree. The tree is tens of thousands of years old, and it is also conceived with spiritual liquid. I want to go and collect some back to strengthen the prohibition of the sacred tree of my family. This may reduce the riots of demon souls. The number of times will also reduce the casualties of the clansmen." Wu Man'er's eyes brightened slightly, and said.

When Shen Luo heard the words, a trace of guilt suddenly surged in his heart.

Wu Man'er just helped to save the ginseng fruit tree, which was a great kindness to Shen Luo, but it was unreasonable for him to subconsciously refuse her request for help.

"Brother Shen, what's the embarrassment? If you have something urgent to attend to, just leave it at that, and it's fine for me to go alone." Seeing Shen Luo's hesitant expression, Wu Man'er hurriedly said guiltily.

Seeing this, Shen Luo smiled and said:

"Forget it, it's not particularly important, so I'll go to Yunmengze with you first. I read it in a book before, and there is a saying about Yunmengze that 'the clouds are steaming and the sky is beautiful', and this time it happened to be A chance to check it out."

"But..." Wu Man'er hesitated.

"It's nothing but, you helped me revive the ginseng fruit tree earlier, and avoided the conflict between the Tang government and Wuzhuang temple. This time, I will accompany you to Yunmengze, and I will repay you as a favor." Shen Luo laughed. .

"I helped save the ginseng fruit tree, and I also had selfish intentions..." Wu Man'er said a little embarrassedly.

"I don't care about this, anyway, I must pay back the favor, but if you are not willing, then I will not force it." Shen Luo said pretending to be indifferent.

"Of course I am willing." Seeing this, Wu Man'er said hastily.

"That's good, let's set off immediately?" Shen Luo asked.

"Okay." Wu Man'er smiled and nodded immediately.

Shen Luo also put away all his thoughts, and the two of them drove the flying boat and flew away into the sky immediately.

……

months later.

Outside Yunmeng Lake, there stands a small border town that is close to the water lake.

The gate of the small city is wide open, and there are only a few dozen soldiers with crooked armor standing on both sides inside and outside, and the defense is loose when you look at it.

Just outside the gate in the city, there is a rather lively street.

At this moment, it was the early morning morning market. There were simple straw mats everywhere on both sides of the street. Melons, fruits and vegetables were placed on the straw mats. The small vendors behind the straw mats shouted for business with all their voices.

Walking a little further inward, there are shops and wine shops here and there. Except for some early-morning businesses, most of them are half-open and have not yet officially opened.

But on the street, there are many people rushing to the morning market. Among the many leisurely figures, a tall and straight man in a green robe is walking side by side with a beautiful woman in a blue cloth skirt. The difference from the residents of the small town is not small, and it looks very abrupt in the crowd.

Especially the shining silver jewelry on the woman's body will always make a crisp "jingling" sound when walking, and her bright and moving appearance will attract the attention of many passers-by along the way.

Naturally, they were Shen Luo and Wu Man'er who were going to Yunmeng Ze.

Wu Man'er didn't pay attention to the curious scrutiny of the passers-by. In other words, her eyes were full of curiosity at the moment, and she kept looking at the passers-by and all the furnishings on the street.

Growing up in the godswood forest, she almost got her understanding of the outside world from A Niang and her master.

When I came out for the first time, I flew directly to Wuzhuang Temple, and I chose some high mountains, dense forests and inaccessible places for rest along the way. I have never actively entered a densely populated city like now.

So everything she sees around her has a different kind of attraction to her.

In fact, on the way they came here, Shen Luo easily discovered this, and deliberately took her to settle in several cities for a short stay.

But even so, every time Wu Man'er went to a new city, he still felt extremely novel.

However, the two of them entered this small town today not to satisfy Wu Man'er's curiosity, but to buy something necessary to enter Yunmeng Lake.

The two walked along the street all the way into the city, and the further they went to the inner city, the deserted the street became.

"Brother Shen, is it really possible to buy street lamps in such a small town?" Wu Maner asked with some doubts.

"Don't underestimate such a small town. As the saying goes, you rely on mountains to eat mountains, and rely on water to eat water. This small town is close to Yunmeng Lake. The reason why it can stand for thousands of years is actually because of the convenient location of Yunmeng Lake. Loose cultivators who earn opportunities in Mengze, or sect monks who come here to practice, will rest here. As a must-have for entering Yunmengze, street lights are indispensable in the city. "Shen Luo said with a smile. .
