Just thinking about it, there was a sudden sound of dull footsteps outside the door, Shang Luo turned his head to look, only to see a handsome young man with a handsome posture and a bee waist and ape back walked into the house, he carried a bow and a knife, his expression was silent, under the sword eyebrows, there was a pair of deep eyes, which seemed to contain sadness, adding a bit of melancholy to the whole person.

If it weren't for this black dress and a chic white robe, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was a beautiful son.

Shang Wu, the grandson of Shang Xishan, is also the pride of the entire Tailuo Village.

At the age of eighteen, he was already a master of cultivation.

Bright energy, dark energy, grandmaster.

This is the triple realm of martial arts that Shang Luo knows.

And the young man in front of him has already reached the top, in the Xingluo Plain, where the martial arts are prosperous, the grandmaster is undoubtedly a big man. It is said that even the merchant government in the merchant town has repeatedly shown favor, and in Tailuo Village, Shang Wu's reputation is even higher than that of his village chief's grandfather.

"Here you go. ”

"What?"

"Bone broth. ”

The young man carried the huge pottery urn in one hand, and there was not the slightest shaking.

"Thanks, just leave it here. Shang Luo hurriedly cleared a space on the table.

"Good. ”

As he put down the urn, the young man quickly turned and left, speaking no more than five words in total.

However, Shang Luo knew in his heart that this was not Shang Wu targeting him, from the memory of his predecessor, he knew that the young man who was far away was born so cold, with a cold face to people and things, silent, even if he spoke, it would generally not exceed two words.

"Young Grandmaster, handsome and extraordinary, this guy is the protagonist. Shang Luo covered his face and complained, couldn't help but smile bitterly, looking through the window, under the faint moonlight, the thin back was like a ghost, the last second was still in this position, but the next second it was already standing in another place.

It's not that he's presumptuous. Shang Wu really brought the peers of Tailuo Village to life as a background board.

When everyone was still just starting to practice martial arts, he had already become a bright jin, and when everyone hadn't broken through the bright energy, he had already cultivated into a dark energy, and when everyone still hadn't broken through the bright energy, he had unknowingly become a young grandmaster.

Some people, you think you're close to him, but in fact it's just someone else who starts running the second lap.

As the thoughts drifted away, a woman's voice suddenly came to my ears.

"You kid, don't write, let's eat. ”

Seeing a woman coming over with a basket, Shang Luo hurriedly thanked him, "Trouble Aunt Zhang." ”

The woman in the gray dress waved her hand, and a kind smile appeared on her weather-beaten face, "What's polite to your aunt, if you don't have enough to eat, your aunt will send it to you again, what else do you need, just shout, your uncle is next door, it's really not good, ask your uncle to make a bunk to take care of you?"

"Don't, I've received too much favor from you and Uncle Zhang, and besides, the dog baby is still young and needs to be taken care of. Shang Luo hurriedly waved his hand and refused.

In fact, although he grew up eating 100 family meals when he was a child, it was Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang's family who took care of him the most at that time.

The two families were neighbors, and when the predecessor's parents just died, Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang even had the idea of adopting him, but they were politely rejected by the predecessor, but even so, the two did not give birth because of his refusal, and still treated him very well, and really treated him as a nephew.

"I owe more and more favors. With a long sigh, Shang Luo's expression was complicated.

After writing the "Taishang Sutra" in his hand, he also began to reward the empty temple of the five internal organs.

Stir-fried wild vegetables, stewed animal meat, tiger bone soup, and a large bowl of rice are hearty.

The rice has a mellow flavor and is drizzled with salty gravy and rich bone broth. Xingluoping was originally a rare place of ointment, and the rice grown was plump and fat, delicate and delicious, otherwise it would not have attracted the eyes of the north and the south.

After a meal, Shang Luo's stomach was round, and he couldn't swallow a grain of rice.

It's not that he's greedy, it's really that the food is rich in energy, and after eating it, the injuries have improved slightly.

I put away the leftovers and washed my hands with difficulty, but I couldn't wash them cleanly, after all, there was no soap, and my hands were stained with oil.

Speaking of which, the reason why he has been able to read and practice calligraphy so frantically in the past three days is that it is difficult to say how strong his self-control and perseverance are. Otherwise, in his previous life, he would not have been mixed up with that high and low appearance.

In fact, this is similar to the ancient Chinese village of Tailuo Village, the spiritual entertainment life is so barren, there is nothing in TV, movies, games, novels, comics, music, etc., so that he is helpless, and even has to concentrate on reading and practicing calligraphy.

The ancients often said that the red sleeves add fragrance is also delusional.

If he was not injured, he could still practice martial arts, practice and practice "Tiger Demon Bone Practice", a glimpse of the mystery of martial arts, for the respected Ming Jin master in the village, Shang Luo had long been curious, but now his whole body is injured, in addition to reading and practicing calligraphy, he really can't find anything to pass the time for a while.

......

The sun and the moon alternate, and the moon sets and the sun rises.

In a flash, it was more than ten days, and Shang Wu, the "silent beautiful man", sent tiger bone soup for ten days in a row. With the blessing of those tiger bone soups, the broken bones on Shang Luo's body healed extremely quickly. Nowadays, I can stagger and walk without crutches, and new pink flesh begins to grow on the wounds all over my body, and people who itch want to die.

In this kind of ordinary life, Shang Luo reads and practices calligraphy, and he has a leisurely life.

I don't know if it's his illusion, but as the progress of [calligraphy] continues to grow, his characters are becoming more and more flexible.

His cheap father, as a great talent who once became famous in Xingluo, collected a lot of ancient books, many of which were purchased from outside by spending a lot of money on the caravan, among which there were indispensable famous calligraphy from all over the world, and copying these hundred calligraphy really benefited Shangluo a lot.

After he copied a "Taishang Jing" for Shang Xishan on the best rice paper collected at home, there were gradually people in the village who came to the door to ask for words, and even some people from neighboring villages. Many people saw that the words were good, and praised him for being a star in the sky.

In this regard, Shangluo will not contribute to the trouble, but he will not stop it. In a sense, he's happy to see it happen.

Reading to nourish hope.

In the Xingluo Plain, although the status of a scholar is not as high as that of a martial artist, it will not be too miserable.

After all, although there is no way to become an official in the imperial examination, all management positions do not require reading and writing. For example, the shopkeeper in a restaurant also requires a certain amount of knowledge, otherwise he can't even understand the account book, and how to open a store.

In fact, don't look at the simple furnishings in Shang Luo's house, in a sense, he can be regarded as an invisible rich second generation. A room of ancient books in the east house of the courtyard alone is worth a lot of money, but the ability to realize it is poor, and it is not easy to get rid of it, otherwise the predecessor would not be so mixed up that it would have to copy the ancient scrolls in the house and send them to the town to sell.

"Brother Luo, Brother Luo, the village chief's grandfather asked me to send you the Heavenly Star Stone. ”

Three or five black, thin and skinny monkeys ran into the house in a hurry, and in the morning sun, they pulled out restless black shadows behind them.

"Okay, let's leave it there. Hearing the sound of the dog baby yelling from afar, Shang Luo put down his pen and ink, rubbed his eyebrows, and was a little distressed, a few children in front of him were either wearing cardigans, or half-arm hakama, or suspenders, the cold of winter was nothing in the eyes of these little guys who had bathed in the blood of beasts since childhood, which made Shang Luo's eyes hot.

At the beginning of "Tiger Demon Bone Practice", it is required to bathe in the blood of beasts in order to enhance the physique of cultivators.

Among them, the younger the age of bathing in the blood of beasts, the better the effect.

It is said that the human baby is born as a congenital body, and after being born, it is contaminated with the turbidity of the world, and it is not born from then on, but this congenital absence also has a process.

The earlier the bathing in the blood of the beast, the stronger the absorption capacity, the more it can absorb the beneficial substances in the blood of the beast, and because the child's body has not yet grown, the greater the possibility of changing the innate endowment.

It's just that this has nothing to do with Shang Luo after all.

The best age to bathe in animal blood is between three and five years old. Too small, the body can't stand the domineering of the beast's blood. If it is too big and the absorption capacity is not strong, it is equivalent to suffering a crime in vain.

And for Shang Luo, the "old boy" who is fifteen this year and sixteen after the Chinese New Year, it is too late to look at it.

"My father, it's stupid to read. ”

Shang Luo helped his head and complained secretly.

The Tianxing Mountain Range is full of mountains, lush forests, and many wild beasts, and some of them have become elite demon beasts. And Tailuo Village is adjacent to the Tianxing Mountain Range, bathing in the blood of beasts is naturally only normal, and the masters of Ming Jin can even hunt those demon beasts that have become spirits together, laying a deeper foundation for their children in martial arts.

It stands to reason that his father has the name of a talented son, and the family background is also rich, who expected that when Shang Luo was three years old, Shang Qinghou spent a lot of money to buy a batch of old books from the ancient Zhao Dynasty, and this time the family wealth was squandered, and the laying of the foundation of Shang Luo was delayed, and later, Shang's father and mother went out on a long trip, and the caravan they followed met mountain bandits, and the two finally died in chaos.

"No, Brother Luo, tell us the story first, otherwise the Tianxing Stone won't give it to you. ”

One of them, a little black monkey was covered in mud somewhere, and his whole body was dark, like a little wild boar rolling in the mud, and his two little hands were holding a pale blue stone at this time, and the stone was a little lit up, like stars dotted under the starry sky.

Suddenly, Shang Luo's mind came up with the last scene in his predecessor's memory—the silver python that seemed to be cloaked in starlight.

Tianxing Stone is a well-known specialty of the Xingluo Plain, and the stone is illuminated by the starlight, and after a long time, it gives birth to extraordinary.

The rich and noble used it to carve into lamps, and at night, they could release their own starlight to illuminate the darkness.

It can also be made into a pendant, worn on the chest, and raised by starlight.

Of course, ordinary people are more used to practice martial arts, holding the Tianxing Stone when exercising, after strenuous exercise, the blood and qi roll, which can speed up the absorption of star power and enhance physical fitness.

Every once in a while, the quarrying team in the village will pick a batch of Tianxing stone, in addition to the respective share of the quarrying team, other people in the village can also share one or two pieces, which is considered the welfare of the village.

However, Shang Luo is now more interested in martial arts.

The Ming Jin master can already break the tree with one punch, and there is also a dark Jin master on it.

Although it shows that the master of strength does not have the Qiao gang leader who walks with BGM in Shang Wu's impression, nor is he as good as Zhang Wuji, who is invincible to all poisons and self-generated after cultivating the "Jiuyang True Scripture", but it is enough to break through the giant tree and fight the tiger and leopard.

In addition to martial arts, in fact, what attracts him more is the cultivation of immortals.

There are a lot of books in the house, and they record some things about the immortals' qi refining. Among the ancient books that delayed the foundation of Shangluo's beast blood, there were many that clearly described the things of the immortals.

It's a pity that most of them are historical biographies, or narrative epics, and there are no expected immortal cultivation techniques.

Among them, in an ancient scroll called "Nine Heavens Lingyun Lu", it was recorded that in ancient times, the great summer court was in the clouds, the palace was like clouds, the heavenly soldiers were like rain, and they ruled over the three thousand worlds, and the emperor of heaven could judge the life and death of the world, the rise and fall of dynasties, and the ups and downs of mountains and seas.

It has also been recorded that the Great Shang Dynasty Xia, the Great Zhou Dynasty Shang, the collapse of the heavenly court, and the battle for the dragon in the world.

There are also hundreds of saints to establish a Taoist system, the sect seeks to be free, and the dynasty rules the world.

There are also extraterritorial invasions, blood rain in the sky, and common sorrow among all worlds.

Many of the things in the book are illusory and too mysterious, and in the absence of empirical evidence, Shang Luo is entertained in the face of myths in a rigorous and serious academic attitude.

But after all, he has crossed over, and there is a system panel in his mind, plus the records of "Nine Heavens and Clouds" more or less coincide with the memories of his previous life, which makes him look forward to it.

If the content of books such as "Nine Heavens Lingyunlu" is too mythical to be credible, but in the books written by the ancestors of Xingluo in the "Chronicles of Foreign States", it is recorded that in the more eastern Jiguo of the Tianxing Mountains, there are monks who cast spells to obtain rice that is ripe three times a day, full of fat and mellow fragrance, far better than Xingluo rice.

When the predecessor went to the merchant town to sell books, he also happened to hear the caravan in the merchant town talk about the news of Jiguo.

Although this cannot strictly confirm the authenticity of the content of "Chronicles of Foreign States", it makes people yearn for it to some extent.

"Brother Luo, Brother Luo......"

Thinking about things in his mind, his thoughts drifted away unconsciously, until a voice came from front of him, Shang Luo shook his head, he looked at the leather monkey dog baby who was holding his right leg and swaying back and forth, and couldn't help but jump in his head, the first two of the clothes that Aunt Zhang had washed had been stained with seven or eight mud handprints, and he really couldn't bear it for having a slight cleanliness habit.

If it weren't for the lack of good legs, he would definitely have pulled off the little leather monkey's pants and slapped his ass hard.

Of course, he just thinks about it, the dog baby is the child of Uncle Zhang's and Aunt Zhang's family, the Zhang family has taken care of him since he was a child, and he also treats him with the courtesy of his elders, and he is not embarrassed to bully other children.

However, think about it from another angle, Uncle Zhang treats him as a nephew, then he is also the elder brother of the dog doll, and it seems natural for the elder brother to discipline and discipline his younger brother.

It's just that......

This beautiful thought just appeared in his mind, and for some reason, a bleak scene of himself being hung and beaten by a dog baby online suddenly appeared in front of Shang Luo's eyes.

Shang Luo felt a pain in his heart, with his body, it seemed that he might not be able to beat the dog.

The other party's physique is better than him, and he has also begun to practice "Tiger Demon Bone Practice" at this age, compared to him who has been abandoned for many years, the little skin monkey must be stronger than him, after all, the 3% progress of [Tiger Demon Bone Skill] is also outrageous.

"Can't I beat a child?"

Shang Luo's face darkened, and there was a faint sense of shame

"Give me the Celestial Star Stone first, and then tell the story. ”

Seeing Shang Luo's face turned cloudy, cloudy to light rain, light rain became bigger, and finally expressionless, the dog baby was a little worried, honestly handed over the Tianxing Stone, and then took out a small horse that he didn't know where to hide with a few friends and sat down, and at this time a little guy stood at the door, and suddenly howled in his throat: "Listen to the story, come and listen to the story." ”

Looking at everything that happened in front of him, Shang Luo felt a little helpless, and it was also his mouth that he owed, a few days ago, Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang went to Shangzhen and put the dog baby on his day, and he was so annoyed that he casually told a story.

"I still underestimate the attraction of stories to children, think about it, Tailuo Village's education for children is nothing more than martial arts, martial arts, and then martial arts, and then simply farming, hunting, fishing and the like, where there is a story that is attractive to children, not to mention that I am based on the secondary processing of the Monkey King in my previous life, Nezha, Avengers, gourd baby, and Snow White. ”

These well-known stories from past lives have proven their appeal to young children through wide dissemination, and are clearly more interesting than the boring things taught by the village adults.

Of course, Shang Luo didn't dare to directly tell about characters such as Sun Wukong, Nezha, and Avengers, but gave new names and mixed the plots of each story.

After all, the novel experience of his previous life told him that all the time-travelers must be from the same earth and from the same China, in case there is his hidden fellow in this village and listens to the story he tells, wouldn't he be throwing himself into the net.
