Chapter 70: The Demon's Saying

"Let's see if there are any bridges or other ways out of the area. ”

Shen Luo muttered to himself, turned over and got off his black horse, tied it to a tree by the river, and then walked along the river on foot, looking at both sides.

At this moment, the bright moon is in the sky, sprinkling bursts of silver light, the surrounding light is not bad, and his eyesight has greatly increased now, and there is almost no difference between seeing things and the day.

It's just that the river meanders and the trees on both sides are lush and block the view, so you can't see too far.

Shen Luo groaned slightly, and planned to go to the middle of the river with a wide field of vision, so he silently tread the water trick, and his feet glowed with a layer of blue light, and stepped on the surface of the river.

Two whirlpools of water emerged beneath his feet, supporting his body.

The last time he performed the trick of treading water was in a calm stream, this time he came to the big river with turbulent water, and the undercurrent was surging nearby, and his treading trick was originally a beginner's practice, but now it was disturbed by external forces, and it was more inflexible to operate, and his body suddenly fell with the waves of the river, swaying from side to side, and seemed to be able to fall into the river at any time.

He hurriedly and secretly used the mana to continuously pour into his feet to maintain the treading technique, and at the same time, his hands were spread out, adjusting his body posture to balance the impact of the river, and after gradually adjusting to the speed of the river, his body gradually became stable.

"It seems that this treading of water still needs to be practiced in various rivers, especially to learn to adapt to maintaining balance in various complex water conditions, so that it can come in handy when needed. ”

Shen Luo breathed a sigh of relief, and after calming down, he continued to walk towards the heart of the river.

"What a wonderful water resistance!"

At this moment, a clear voice suddenly came from a distance, not loud, but it overshadowed the sound of the rolling waves around him, as if he was speaking in Shen Luo's ear.

Shen Luo originally put all his mind on performing the treading duel, but when he suddenly heard this, his mind suddenly became confused.

The mana in his body stagnated slightly, the spiritual light of his feet suddenly dissipated, and the whole person immediately "plopped" and fell into the river.

Shen fell into the water for a while, and hurriedly pinched the magic with both hands, and the surrounding river suddenly stirred, forming a spiral wave around him, and the bottom of his feet once again gave birth to a lifting force, lifting him out of the water.

He looked wet to the shore where he had come, and saw a young man of great figure appear near the tree where he had tied his horse.

Under the reflection of the moonlight, the young man's sparse eyebrows and eyes were clearly visible, two sword eyebrows flew obliquely into the temples, a pair of eyes were as clear as stars, the bridge of the nose was towering like a mountain, and the lips were slightly thick and the smile was obvious.

The young man was wearing a round-necked robe, covered with half of a piece of fish-scale armor that was diagonally from his right shoulder to his ribs, and behind him was a simple long sword with a long hilt, and the whole person exuded a heroic aura from head to toe.

"Dare to ask Your Excellency, which of the inner disciples of the Weak Water Gate is a master?" Before Shen Luo could speak, the young man rushed to this side and hugged his fist and asked first.

"I don't know why Your Excellency said this?" Shen Luo frowned slightly and said.

At this time, of course, he was no longer the son of the merchant who had just entered the Spring and Autumn View two years ago, and naturally knew that with the size of the world, there must be more than one Spring and Autumn View where he practiced, but he had never had the opportunity to learn about other immortal cultivation sects, so he didn't know what the weak water gate was.

"Oh, isn't it? I thought that in the entire land of Dengping County, only the inner disciples of the Weak Water Gate could be so proficient in the water method, and Your Excellency looked at the young age before he did this. The young man raised his sword eyebrows and said with some confusion.

"Your Excellency seems to have misunderstood, it's just a casual cultivation and indiscriminate cultivation, and there is no sect inheritance. Shen Luo's eyes flashed slightly, and he said casually.

With that, he took a step and tread water towards the shore, intending to lead his horse away, and not intending to have too much contact with the unknown man.

"Since they are fellow cultivators, let's call each other Taoist friends for the time being. Under the name of Lu Huaming, he is a person from Chang'an, dare to ask what to call Daoyou?" The young man walked towards the black horse without looking back after seeing Shen Luo come ashore, and was busy reporting to his home.

"Under ...... Shen Jiacheng, a local. Since Lu Daoyou is from the capital of Gyeonggi, why did he come to this remote Songfan County?" Shen Luo hesitated for a moment, then turned around and replied with a smile.

He was still a little wary of this sudden stranger, and did not tell his real name.

"It turned out to be Shen Daoyou. On the way back, I happened to see Daoyou cultivating here, and I couldn't help but be curious for a while, and came to say hello, hoping that Daoyou would not feel abrupt. Lu Huaming looked at Shen Luo's wet appearance and said slightly apologetically.

"No, it's because I'm not good at learning art, which makes Lu Daoyou smile. Shen Luo saw that the other party's tone was sincere, and his eyes were full of energy, but he didn't look like a villain, so he also said with a smile.

"It's a blessing to be able to witness the Water Resisting Divine Technique with your own eyes today!Please forgive me for taking the liberty of Shen Daoyou, but the Treading Water Technique in the Water Method, right?" Lu Huaming hurriedly waved his hand and asked again.

"What's the matter, Lu Daoyou also has research on this?" Shen Luo's eyebrows jumped and he asked rhetorically.

"There is no research, but I have heard that this technique consumes very little mana, but it can make the practitioner invincible on the water, and it is very suitable for dealing with the entanglement of some water monsters, which makes people envious. Lu Huaming shook his head with a smile and said.

"In the next casual cultivation, my knowledge is shallow, and I have always heard that there are goblins and ghosts, but I haven't seen it with my own eyes. Can you talk about it or two?" Shen Luo listened and became curious.

After he fell asleep, in Donglai County, he saw the green wolf and the wolf-headed monster that could hide his whereabouts, which left a deep impression on him.

"The demon clan ghosts actually have nothing to say, they are the same as our human race's cultivation, they all rely on ingesting the spiritual power of heaven and earth, and conform to the changes of the five elements of yin and yang, to open up spiritual wisdom and increase the mana of the Tao. It's just that generally speaking, monsters and ghosts of the same level have various talents and supernatural powers, and they are three points stronger than our human race. Of course, we Terran immortal cultivators also have the assistance of various external objects such as talismans, and it is difficult to say who wins and who wins when we really fight. In addition, Shen Daoyou didn't know that the world now seems to be a peaceful scene, and everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, but in fact, there are undercurrents surging and dangers lurking! In our Datang territory, there are not only monsters and beasts infested, but also some ghosts and spirits frequently haunt them, and the local governments have been a little overwhelmed by this. Even half a year ago, the imperial court had clearly issued an edict and spent a lot of money to recruit some strange people to deal with this matter. Lu Huaming said calmly.

"There is such a thing!" Shen Luo was a little surprised.
