Seeing this, Jieyin Taoist and others also showed surprise in their expressions.
"How dare you destroy my magic weapon!" Qin Shan was stunned for a moment, blood flushed on his face, he looked at Shen Luo almost cannibalistically, the precious light on his body flickered, and he wanted to strike again.
"Do you still want to show yourself? Stop it!" The Taoist guide frowned and gave Qin Shan a sideways look, then shouted coldly.
Qin Shan's body was shaken, and his face showed a dull look, as if he had been shaken, he recovered after a few breaths, and did not make another move.
"Shen Xiaoyou's supernatural power, what you just used was the indigo sea supernatural power of Mount Putuo, right? It seems that the power has been cultivated to the third level, and it is not far from the fourth level. I admire it." The guiding Taoist turned to Shen Luo, and smiled slightly. Said, but the smile was a little cold.
"It's a small skill, it's an honor to attract seniors." Shen Luo responded lightly.
By now, he could also see that the reason why Qin Shan and Li He dared to call the door was probably because of the secret instruction of the leading Taoist.
He has learned about Wuzhuang Temple from Ao Hong, Bai Xiaotian and others. This sect pays great attention to etiquette and has always acted cautiously. Qin Shan Li He is definitely not a reckless and impulsive person who can sit on the position of elder. Even if he is suspected of stealing After taking ginseng fruit, he would never hit the door so directly.
As for why the leading Taoist would do this, Shen Luo couldn't figure it out for a while, but he could also feel the other party's dislike for him, so facing this person, Shen Luo didn't bother to pretend.
"What happened just now is considered reckless by Qin Shan and the others, but please release these two magic weapons, Fellow Daoist Shen." The leading Taoist looked at the Kaishan Yue and the green long knife, and said.
Shen Luo didn't say a word, and made a gesture to touch the two lumps of blue ice.
The two chunks of ice melted quickly, and within a few breaths they disappeared without a trace. The mountain axe and the green long knife escaped from the trap and flew into Qin Shan's hands.
Qin Shan cast a spell to sense the condition of the two magic weapons. Seeing that the Kaishan ax was not damaged, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief, but his eyes fixed on Shen Luo, but the hatred in his heart did not decrease at all.
Chapter 1116 Four Reasons
"Since the elders were brought here, Mr. Shen has something to ask. Just now, the two elders of Qinshan and Li He kept saying that Mr. Shen stole ginseng fruit and destroyed the ginseng fruit tree. They also claimed that they had evidence. I don't know where the evidence is? Please tell the elders clearly " Shen Luo looked at the leading Taoist and asked calmly.
"Young friend Shen, don't get angry. This matter has not yet been determined. Those remarks just now were reckless by Qin Shan and the others. Please forgive me, little friend Shen." The Taoist receiving and guiding said with a faint smile.
"Why are you not sure about picking up the elders, obviously..." Qin Shan couldn't help but said.
But he didn't finish his sentence, and the Taoist took another look across, he opened his mouth, and had to swallow the rest of the words.
Shen Luo's expression was indifferent, he just watched quietly without speaking.
"Little friend Shen, to be honest, there was another theft in this temple last night. Two ginseng fruits were stolen, and the ginseng fruit tree was suddenly withered by someone who did not know what kind of magical power it had displayed." The Taoist guide stared at Shen Luo's eyes, slowly Said slowly.
Although Shen Luo had already heard about this matter from Qin Shan and Li He, he still frowned when he heard the specific details from the lead Taoist.
"I don't know where little friend Shen was last night? What did you do? Is there anyone to prove it?" The Taoist guide asked slowly, his eyes became sharper.
"I've been refining weapons in the Sun Moon Palace these days, and I haven't left even a single step. Last night was the same. As for witnesses, Fellow Daoist Mingyue has been guarding outside the valley, so I should know." Shen Luo said without any hesitation, and finally looked He glanced at Mingyue.
Mingyue showed hesitation and did not speak.
"Hmph! You have covered the Sun and Moon Palace with restrictions, and you can't see what's going on inside at all from the outside. Mingyue just sits quietly outside the valley, and doesn't have time to cover the Sun and Moon Palace with spiritual consciousness. You used escapism to leave quietly, and he How can you find out?" Qin Shan refuted with a sneer.
Shen Luo's eyes sank. Although Qin Shan's words were preposterous, they were not completely unreasonable.
"Whether you believe it or not, I did not leave the Sun Moon Palace last night." He said after a moment of silence.
"Fellow Taoist, is there a way to prove this?" asked the leading Taoist.
"I have no way to prove it, but I would like to ask my seniors, why do you think I stole the ginseng fruit and destroyed the fruit tree? The two elders of Qinshan and Li He even came to arrest people directly." Shen Luo asked back.
"There are four main reasons for our suspicion of Shen Xiaoyou." The Taoist guide did not refuse to answer, and stretched out four fingers.
"I would like to hear the details." Shen Luo cupped his hands and said.
"The first is that the Baiguo Fairy Association has ended, and now there is no outsider in the entire Wuzhuang Temple except Shen Xiaoyou." The Taoist who received and led said slowly.
Shen Luo frowned, but did not refute.
"Secondly, Xiaoyou Shen has been in the Sun and Moon Palace for a while, and the Sun and Moon Palace is very close to the fairy orchard where the ginseng fruit is located, and Shen Xiaoyou also asked Mingyue about the fairy orchard and the ginseng fruit tree before, right?" continue.
Shen Luo's expression remained unchanged, and he sighed secretly in his heart. He asked curiously that day, but he didn't expect to cause him a lot of trouble.
"As for the third reason, since the last time the ginseng fruit was lost, I set up a small restriction near the ginseng fruit tree. This restriction has no defense or detection function, and the breath is extremely weak. The only function is to record the nearby Image, this is the case of the forbidden record." The guiding Taoist continued, taking out a white ball, and a figure flying past emerged from it.
Shen Luo looked over and his expression sank slightly.
Although the figure inside the sphere was very blurry, its appearance could still be seen, it was him.
"When my cultivation has reached my level, it's so easy to change my appearance. If I were to steal fruits and destroy trees, why would I use my original appearance?" Shen Luo said in a deep voice.
"Maybe it's because you didn't expect to lead seniors to set up this restriction in the garden, and you were careless." Qin Shan's voice that made Shen Luo sick again sounded.
Shen Luo gritted his teeth, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he didn't argue with Qin Shan.
"As for the last reason, it started more than half a month ago. Fellow Daoist Lu Huaming from the Tang government came to Wuzhuang Temple to ask for a piece of ginseng fruit to renew the life of the Tang Emperor, but was rejected by the temple owner. Dragon Qi, should follow the law of reincarnation, and forcibly increase the lifespan, which is against the law of heaven." The Taoist Jieyin continued.
"Is there such a thing?" Shen Luo was surprised.
"As for the sloppy man who stole ginseng fruit a few days ago and finally blew himself up, we have already investigated his identity. His name is Ziyi Pirates. Talk more." The Taoist receiving and guiding said with a cold gaze.
"Now Ziyi failed to steal the fruit and was killed, and the ginseng fruit failed to take out, and Shen Luo, you are inextricably linked with the Tang government. If you fail to steal once, you will naturally have to come for the second time, so you have an excuse to stay. , wait for the opportunity." Qin Shan continued.
Shen Luo fell silent, judging from this series of circumstances, his suspicion was indeed very serious, no wonder the lead Taoists suspected him.
However, he did not do such evil things. In the current situation, someone conspired to frame him, and the arrangement was extremely delicate. If he was not careful, he would really be regarded as a villain who stole fruit and destroyed trees, and he would even die in five for no reason. Zhuang Guannei.
Shen Luo took a deep breath to calm himself down.
"With so many reasons, it's inevitable for some of you to doubt me, but Shen swears by his demons that the matter of stealing fruit and destroying trees is definitely not my doing. Magical storage device." He took off the ring and handed it out.
The Devil Slaying Remnant Sword is now in his body, and the Ten Thousand Poisonous Hunyuan Pearl was disguised as immortal jade and hidden in the pile of immortal jade by him in the same way as before.
The Daoist Jieyin and the others all changed their expressions when they heard that Shen Luo had swear by a demon.
The heart demon's oath is no small matter, if he breaks it, it will do great harm to his future cultivation, if Shen Luo made such an oath, could it be that he was really wronged?
"Since Fellow Daoist Shen said so, then I'm not going to be polite, let's check again." The Taoist guide took the Linlang ring, submerged his spiritual sense into it, and started to probe again.
Like last time, he failed to see through the illusion of the Liangyi Mote Talisman, and noticed the existence of the Ten Thousand Poison Hunyuan Pearl, but found nothing.
"Although Shen Xiaoyou's magic weapon is clean, you still haven't cleared your suspicions. Please come with us and wait for the priest to return from the heaven." The Taoist guide handed Lin Langhuan back and said.
Shen Luo's eyes sank, although what the Taoist said was subtle, how could he not understand that this was to put him under house arrest.
Qin Shan and the others dodged to stand around Shen Luo, surrounding him.
"I can go with you, but before that, I want to see the ginseng fruit tree." Shen Luo was silent for a while, without any resistance, he put forward a condition.
The leading Taoist was startled.
"What do you want to do? Are you going to come up with some bad idea?" Qin Shan said coldly.
"Shen doesn't want to be locked up for no reason. He wants to take a look at the place where the incident happened no matter what. Although my cultivation base is not strong, my eyesight is not weak. I have also practiced a few Yimu magical powers. Maybe I can see it from the fruit tree. What happened." Shen Luo said, silently transporting the grace of the Shenmu.
A vortex-like green light suddenly appeared in his palm, and the aura of nearby vegetation immediately gathered and merged into his body continuously.
Chapter 1117 Probing
"This is... good! Since Fellow Daoist Shen has this idea, please come with me." The Taoist receiving and guiding eyes lit up, then took a deep look at Shen Luo, then turned and flew towards the distance.
Without hesitation, Shen Luo followed closely behind the Taoist guide.
Although the other people didn't know why, they didn't dare to disobey the Taoist's words, and they jumped up to follow, continuing to surround Shen Luo in the middle.
A group of people flew towards the woods behind the valley, and soon reached the depths of the woods.
The trees here are getting taller and taller, some big trees are several feet thick and tens of feet high, like green hills.
Shen Luo looked at the giant tree in front of him, slightly surprised, but then raised his eyebrows and regained his composure.
The leading Taoist stopped in front of the giant tree, turned his hand and took out a green token, and made a little trick.
A green light shot out and merged into the void ahead.
Ripples suddenly appeared in the void in front of it, and then it was pulled open like a curtain, and a huge orchard appeared in front of it.
The area of this orchard is forty or fifty miles in size, surrounded by a towering khaki-yellow courtyard wall, no matter the size or the grandeur, it is no worse than the Datang Palace.
The orchard was also divided by high walls, forming an unknown number of large and small courtyards, and each courtyard had one or several precious spiritual trees planted there.
The aura of heaven and earth here is beyond imagination, even the Purple Bamboo Forest in Mount Putuo or the Nine Brahma Secret Realm is far behind.
The soil on the ground is not extraordinary soil either, it is lavender in color and exudes an extremely thick aura.
Shen Luo had seen this kind of soil in the classics before. It was called "Nine Heavens Breathing Soil". It was a top-grade spiritual soil. It contained thick spiritual power of the soil and nourished all things, especially the spiritual grass and spiritual tree.
All major sects will collect some Nine Heavens Breathing Soil to cultivate spiritual herbs. The medicine garden of Black Bear Spirit contains a lot of Nine Heavens Breathing Soil, but there are other low-grade spiritual soils mixed in, and the color is not lavender.
And the ground here in Wuzhuangguan Orchard is actually composed of pure Nine Heavens Breathing Soil.
The yellow courtyard walls around the orchard are not ordinary bricks and stones, but some kind of earth-type spiritual material, which not only nourishes the spiritual power of the land, but also separates each courtyard so that different spiritual fruits will not affect each other.
However, the Nine Heavens Breathing Soil and those spiritual material courtyard walls are just the surface. Shen Luo can sense that there seems to be some more mysterious treasure hidden in the ground here. The spiritual energy and the essence of the earth veins gathered to supply the growth of many spiritual trees in the orchard.
The power of this treasure is far superior to that of the Linggui Moon Mirror, and the gathered spiritual energy of heaven and earth is many times more than that of the Moon Mirror.
"As expected of the Fairy Orchard of Wuzhuang Temple, it's really amazing." Shen Luozhong praised.
"Little friend Shen is too famous. It is only with one treasure that such a big fairy garden can be cultivated. Please follow me. The ginseng fruit tree is in the deepest part of the fairy orchard." The guiding Taoist smiled and continued to fly forward.
"Sure enough, there is a rare treasure underground here. Could it be the ground calligraphy treasure?" Shen Luo's heart moved when he heard the words, but he didn't think too much about it. He followed closely behind the leading Taoist, and soon arrived in front of a huge courtyard in the center of the orchard. .
The courtyard here is hundreds of feet in size, and the surrounding courtyard walls are resplendent and magnificent, much larger than other courtyards. There are many array patterns engraved on the walls, but they are all kinds of spirit-gathering arrays, cultivation arrays, etc., which are helpful for the growth of ginseng fruit trees. array.
There is a big tree growing in the courtyard, more than a thousand feet high, with fragrant green branches and dark green leaves, but the leaves look like plantains, and there are fruits in the shape of children growing among the leaves.
Regardless of the number of tree trunks, leaves, or those fruits, there is a layer of glittering and translucent precious light shining.
It's just that this fruit tree is now looking wilted, the green leaves are shriveled, and even the aura on the ginseng fruit is very dim, it seems that it will die soon.
There are still several layers of restrictions flashing around the fruit tree, which seem to be treating the tree, but unfortunately, it seems that there is no effect.
"This is the ginseng fruit tree?" Shen Luo looked at the giant tree in front of him curiously.
"That's right, the ginseng fruit tree has been used for some reason, and its spiritual power is dissipating rapidly, and there is no way to stop it. Since Xiaoyou Shen is proficient in Yimu magical powers, please help investigate." The Taoist guide said, and the ginseng fruit was scattered Restrictions around the tree.
Shen Luo nodded, stepped to the front of the ginseng fruit tree, and used his spiritual sense to explore inside the tree.
"Elder Jieyin, really let this Shen Luo touch the ginseng fruit tree? He is very likely to be the one who stole the fruit. What if he wants to take this opportunity to use some vicious means on the ginseng fruit tree to make the situation of the ginseng fruit tree even worse? What should I do?" Qin Shan walked up to the receiving Taoist and asked via voice transmission.
"It's okay, I've already put a multicolored doll talisman in the ginseng fruit tree. If Shen Luo really does something wrong, he can use the talisman to stop it." The leading Taoist replied through sound transmission.
"It turns out that you have already prepared to receive the elder, that's good, but why bother?" Qin Shan was puzzled.
"If Shen Luo is a fruit thief and wants to take the opportunity to attack the fruit tree again, with the multicolored doll amulet, the ginseng fruit tree will be safe. First, we can confirm the murderer, so we don't need to continue to be suspicious. Second, we can pass him. The method of using it is to find the problem of the ginseng fruit tree. If this sink is not the person who stole the fruit and destroyed the tree, we can use his Yimu supernatural power to investigate the problem of the ginseng fruit tree." The guide Taoist explained through sound transmission.
"As a monk in the middle stage of Mahayana, even if he has cultivated a few Yimu supernatural powers, how powerful can he really help us find the problem of ginseng fruit trees?" Qin Shan was a little disapproving.
"Of course other Yimu supernatural powers won't work, but he actually understands the divine tree's blessings in the Shenmu forest, so maybe he can find it." The leading Taoist said through sound transmission.
"What! That was the supernatural power of Shenmulin just now!" Qin Shan was taken aback.
……
Shen Luo didn't notice the secret sound transmission from Taoist and Qin Shan, and his spiritual consciousness penetrated into the ginseng fruit tree.
The wood of the fruit tree is full of unbelievably pure spiritual power, which is too much and too thick, and also contains some kind of special mana fluctuations, which caused a great hindrance to his spiritual consciousness.
With Shen Luo's powerful spiritual consciousness, he only penetrated two or three feet into the ginseng fruit tree, but he couldn't go any further, and couldn't figure out the internal situation at all.
"As expected of a spiritual root that was born before the beginning of the world, it's no wonder that the magical powers of leading Taoists can't detect the problem of the fruit tree." Shen Luo secretly thought, but he was not discouraged.
Green light bloomed on his palm, and quickly condensed into a green light vortex several feet in size, but this green light vortex was completely opposite to before, radiating from the inside out.
Instead of absorbing the surrounding Yimu Qi, the green light vortex spread the Yimu spiritual energy to the surroundings, rushing towards the inside of the ginseng fruit tree.
Shenmu Enze is profound and mysterious. It can not only absorb the aura of Otoki, but it can also diffuse out the aura of Otoki if it runs retrogradely.
Shen Luo brought up the ginseng fruit tree here, not for a moment's interest. He is now suspected of stealing, and he has been led to be on high alert. If he can find out the cause of the withering of the ginseng fruit tree, it should be able to ease the relationship with Wuzhuang Temple. He can also use this reason to infer the murderer's situation, which is conducive to solving this matter.
The Yimu aura emanating from his palm easily penetrated into the ginseng fruit tree, and soon broke through the limit of spiritual exploration, and continued to go deep into it unabated.
Chapter 1118 Wu Man'er
Shen Luo secretly rejoiced, then closed his eyes, and carefully inspected the inside of the ginseng fruit tree, his complexion sank quickly.
There are blue veins inside the ginseng fruit tree, which carry spiritual power. These are the spiritual veins produced by ancient spirit trees, similar to the meridians in a monk's body.
There seemed to be no problem with the spiritual network on the outside, but the deeper it went into the interior, the more chaotic the spiritual network became. Not to mention the stagnation and obstruction, many places were still put together in a mess.
Moreover, there was no trace of external interference in these chaotic spiritual channels, as if the spiritual channels of the ginseng fruit tree had rioted on their own.
"How could this be?" Shen Luo was secretly startled, and continued to run the divine tree's grace, spreading deep into the fruit tree.
It's just that when he got here, Shenmu Enze's exploration also became more difficult. He tried his best to explore a few feet inward, and finally reached the limit, unable to go any further.
