Chapter 217: Night Walking
Although he was not close to the audience in the Spring and Autumn Period, when the sect was in danger, whether it was Master Luo or his uncle, they all gave him great trust and passed on the "Pure Yang Treasure Book" to him.
"There is no way to do this for the time being, the other sects have already withdrawn people, and our Bai family still has a few people left over there to secretly monitor, if there is anything to be found, we will report it back." Bai Xiaotian said helplessly.
"...... in my family" Shen Luo hesitated slightly and asked.
Previously, for the sake of his family's safety, he forcibly did not contact his family, but he was actually very worried.
"The matter of the Spring and Autumn View has been covered up, and the outside world doesn't know much, let alone ordinary people, so your family still thinks you're on the mountain. But don't worry, your father has already instructed you to take care of your house secretly, so there will be no problem. Bai Xiaotian smiled and comforted.
"Thank you very much. Now that the situation over there has stabilized, I will go to seal the letter to the family in the next few days and tell them the latest situation. Shen Luo heard this, and then said.
"That's fine. Bai Xiaotian nodded and said.
......
Not long after returning to Baifu, Bai Xiaotian was also refreshed, and immediately sent a pile of yellow rune paper and a small jar of cinnabar, and Shen Luo did not go to the secret room at the bottom of the lake to cultivate, but stayed in the house and drew the talisman.
Previously, in the dream of Changshou Village, Shen Luo came into contact with more high-level talismans, and his perception of drawing talismans became more and more profound, and now he drew low-level talismans such as "Little Thunder Fu", which was even more handy, and basically one of the three could be drawn.
In addition, his control of mana has become more and more proficient, and his consumption is much less than before.
But it took him an hour to draw more than a dozen small thunder talismans.
When he stopped writing, he sat back on his knees and meditated and breathed.
However, after coming out of the state of drawing the talisman, his mind began to be a little confused, and he couldn't help but recall the flower pattern on the back of the water beast in his mind.
In the end, I had to take out a book borrowed from Bai Xiaotian and look through it at random.
At night, lights were lit all over the White Mansion, and red light was shining inside and outside the courtyard.
After Shen Luo had dinner, he paced to the front yard and saw that the gate was closed, only the side door was still open, and there were several attendants standing next to the door.
With a slight hesitation, he walked towards the side door.
The attendants of the White Mansion had already received instructions from the steward, so they naturally knew Shen Luo, and the first one of them took the initiative to greet them.
"Shen Gongzi, are you going out?" the man asked after a bow.
"Well, go out for a walk. Shen Luo nodded and said casually.
"It's getting late, Shen Gongzi doesn't have to go too far, it's best not to go out of this Yonghua Street, it's not very peaceful in this city recently. Naturally, the attendant did not dare to stop it, so he carefully instructed.
"Noted down, thank you. Hearing this, Shen Luo hugged his fists slightly and said.
He originally planned to sneak out secretly, but when he thought that the Bai family didn't know how many hidden masters there were, in order not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings, he finally decided to go out openly.
After Shen Luo came out of the side door, he paced away from Baifu, and when he saw that there was no one around, he immediately activated his mana and poured it into his legs.
In Jianye City at night, most of the urban areas have no curfew, especially near the area along the Qinhuai River, it is brightly lit and lively, and it looks no worse than in the daytime.
However, due to the strange things in the city recently, and the matter of the plumbing pavilion has become more and more mysterious, there are still many fewer pedestrians on the streets than in the past.
There is one place that is completely different here, and that is half a block near Zhenhuai Bridge.
Naturally, the plumbing pavilion has been completely closed, and the nearby shops have also closed early, and even the favorite night boat tour of the scholars and literati in the past has been banned by the government and temporarily stopped.
When Shen Luo arrived here, he saw that the street was deserted, only the vermilion lanterns hanging in front of each house, and a few were still lit sporadically, reflecting the street with a bright red and a dark scene.
He stood at the entrance of the street, glanced in the direction of the entrance of the plumbing pavilion, and then turned the corner of the street and hurried towards the Zhenhuai Bridge.
Just took two steps, Shen Luo suddenly tightened his body, and noticed that something was staring at him, and the hairs on his body immediately stood upside down.
He stiffened slightly, and slowly turned his head to look into the dark corner of the wall on his right.
I saw that in the darkness, a figure slowly walked out, dressed in a Confucian shirt, and it was the white-faced scholar I saw in the daytime.
"Boy, it can be seen that you are a cultivator, but you'd better not get involved in the affairs here and leave quickly. The man whispered as he walked towards him.
When Shen Luo heard his voice, his expression changed again, and an inexplicable sense of familiarity hit his heart again.
It's just that before he could figure it out, the white-faced scholar had already passed by him and turned to the Zhenhuai Bridge.
As soon as Shen Luo wanted to follow, he heard the man's warning and said obviously: "Listen to people's advice to eat well, young people, don't always do your own thing to find death......"
He immediately stopped, hesitated, turned and walked in the direction he had come.
After the white-faced scholar noticed Shen Luo leaving, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he quickened his pace and walked to the side of the stone arch bridge.
After Shen Luo walked back, he didn't really go back to Baifu, but secretly carried the oblique moon step, and his body flew away lightly, landing on the roof of a shop.
He walked lightly, walked on the ridge of the roof like flying, and soon came to the roof of a shop near the river, lowered his body and crouched on one side of the ridge, only one head was exposed, secretly observing the situation on the other side of the Zhenhuai Bridge.
As a result, he saw the white-faced scholar standing in front of the river beast in that town for a while, and then suddenly went to the river, stopped by the waterfront near the backyard of the plumbing pavilion, and suddenly squatted down.
I saw him poking his head out and looking left and right in the water, as if he was looking for something.
At this moment, the back door of the plumbing pavilion suddenly opened, and the white water chief in a gray robe walked out of it, and when he saw a person squatting on the shore of the water, he thought that he was here to throw water again, and his face suddenly changed.
As soon as he jumped, he came to the water's edge, directly stretched out a palm, grabbed the back collar of the white-faced scholar, and threw it backwards, and the white-faced scholar was thrown up high, and fell into the backyard of the plumbing pavilion.
"Are you looking for death in the middle of the night? Why don't you pick a suitable place?" said the White Water Chief, angrily.
The white-faced scholar looked helpless, and was about to open his mouth to defend a few words, when his expression suddenly changed, and he shouted:
"Be careful......
As soon as his voice fell, a sudden change occurred!
