Chapter 242: Unexpected
Xie Yuxin, who was checking the task on the side, couldn't help frowning when she heard Shen Luo's words, and looked over here.
"This ...... Xie Keqing's cultivation is profound, and his actions have always been prudent, and today is the second time he has delivered the task, so there is no need to verify anything. You still need to check it a little bit, it's just a process, it's not troublesome. The Bai family steward hurriedly said.
"Can you compare it with Xie Keqing? Steward, you'd better investigate it carefully! This red cloth may have been picked up by him, and he must not be allowed to fool him through. Chu Li reacted and stepped forward and said.
"We will check the status of your tasks, whether they have been completed, whether they have completed them by themselves, and we will not miss anyone or treat anyone lightly. The Bai family steward glanced at Chu Li and said calmly.
When Chu Li heard this, anger flashed in his eyes, but he didn't say anything.
"Shen Keqing, don't worry, this is a normal process, if the task is indeed completed by you, someone will be sent to your residence after the task reward. The other steward was slightly apologetic and said to Shen Luo.
"Then it's a problem for both of you. When Shen Luo heard this, he nodded, hugged his fists slightly at the two, and turned around and walked towards his residence.
Seeing Shen Luo leaving, Xie Yuxin also retracted his gaze.
Those who completed the task didn't matter, and the few people who returned in vain today were all like Chu Li, unwilling to believe that Shen Luo could really complete the task, and looked at his back one by one, with a lot of doubt in their eyes.
At this moment, two figures appeared in the distance and walked over, it was Bai Shuidao and Wu Tong.
"Daoist Baishui, Daoist Wu Tong, I remember that you also went to carry out the mission of Red Leaf Town, how is that mission?
Bai Shuidao and Wu Tong had gloomy faces, glanced at each other, and did not speak.
"What's wrong with you? Why don't you speak? Could it be that Shen Luo?" Feng Ling shook his fan and said suspiciously.
Chu Li also looked over, the corners of his eyes twitched, and a trace of uneasiness flashed on his face.
"That's right, it's really Shen Luo's doing. The Baishui Daoist sighed lightly and nodded helplessly.
As soon as these words came out, the few people who had questioned Shen Luo before were suddenly dumbfounded.
"It's really him, how is this possible!" someone exclaimed after a moment.
"Yes, didn't you say that he only had the cultivation of the middle stage of Qi refining? The strength of the water ghost in Red Leaf Town, I heard that it is at least equivalent to a late stage of Qi refining!"
"Could it be that this person has another means?"
"How could it be ......" Chu Li had a hot feeling on his face, and muttered in his mouth.
"Baishui Daoist, Wu Tong, have you seen clearly, how did that Shen Luo kill the ghosts of Hongye Town?" At this time, a cold voice sounded, but it was Xie Yuxin who walked over.
"That's the case, after Wu Daoyou and I arrived in Hongye Town...... Baishui Daoist immediately explained the process of Shen Luo killing the female ghost in red.
"Oh, it turned out to be with the power of the talisman. After hearing this, Xie Yuxin showed a trace of disappointment on her face.
She originally thought that Shen Luo had hidden his strength and became a little interested in it.
When he heard that he was just a guy who relied on a large number of talismans, that trace of interest disappeared, and turned around to continue to check the task list.
After Shen Luo returned to his residence, he closed his eyes for a while, and after recovering his mana, he couldn't wait to get up and come to the courtyard.
He took out the ghost ring from his arms, looked at it a few times, and could no longer hide the smile on his face, and the whole person became open-eyed and laughing.
The mission of Red Leaf Town was originally for the fire linwood, so it cost a lot of small thunder talismans at any cost, and it was still a little distressing, but it turned out to be a mistake and then met the soul horse face to get this ghost roaring ring, but it became the biggest gain of this trip.
Although this ring is not a real magic weapon, it is definitely easier to use than ordinary talismans, if you can really control it, you can have one more powerful attack method, and then whether it is with the horse face to exorcise ghosts, or encounter any strong enemies, it is very helpful.
After thinking about it, he began to inject mana into the ghost roaring ring in his hand, and after a while, the black light on the ring flashed, condensing into a black ghost beast phantom the size of a basin.
He continued to inject mana, and the ghost head grew larger and more solidified until it reached the size of a grinding disc.
At this time, the ghost head had a single horn on his forehead, and his face was hideous and terrifying, compared to the first attempt, it was much more condensed, but it also consumed almost one-fifth of his mana.
Shen Luo took a deep breath, grabbed the ghost roaring ring, and slammed it in the direction of a small rockery in the courtyard.
With a ghost roar, a black sound wave erupted from the mouth of the ghost head, instantly spanning a distance of more than ten zhang and hitting a rockery not far away.
"Boom"!
The rockery, which was two or three feet high, trembled violently, and the part that was hit by the sound wave boomed, and the split burst exploded, and the dust danced wildly.
Shen Luo groaned slightly, clasped the ghost roaring ring in the palm of his hand, and waved his hand again, and another black sound wave shot out from the ghost whistle, and in a flash, it turned into a black sound knife that was long and long, and slashed on another intact rockery in a flash.
"Poof"!
The rockery was like a paper paste pinched in mud, and it was easily cut in two by the black sound knife, and the upper half fell to the ground with a bang, setting off a burst of smoke.
Shen Luo nodded with satisfaction, and then stopped.
Urging this half-magic weapon similar to a talisman is purely practice makes perfect, because he has experience in manipulating magic weapons in his dreams, he only has a slight try, and he has figured out the use of this ghost roaring ring.
This is much stronger than the small thunder talisman, but the mana consumption is not low, and the advantage is that it can be used repeatedly, which is a more practical means of attack.
Although it is not as powerful as the thunder talisman, with the little mana that he is pitiful now, I am afraid that he can only urge one, and it can only be used as a killer weapon at a critical moment.
"It seems that my cultivation is still too low, and if I continue like this, even if I am given a magic weapon, I can't urge it. Shen Luo thought so in his heart, turned around and went back to the house, lay down on the bed, and fell asleep.
This night of running, exorcism of ghosts, and practicing ghost rings, he is too tired.
When Shen Luo woke up, it was already the afternoon of the third day.
He got up and moved his body, went out and fetched a few buckets of water and filled the wooden barrels in the room, and then the whole person sat in it, running the nameless exercises, and cultivating.
It wasn't long before there was a knock on the door.
His brows furrowed, he had no choice but to stop practicing, got up and opened the courtyard door, only to see a middle-aged man dressed as a steward standing outside.
"Shen Keqing, we have investigated the task of Red Leaf Town, and it is indeed you who expelled the ghosts, this is your reward, please take a look. The man's attitude was quite respectful, and he took out a long white jade box in both hands and handed it over.
