The heavy thanks Ma Mian said was neither a magic weapon nor a fairy jade, but some kind of psychic contract.
If it is this thing, Shen Luo has practiced the art of channeling spirits and demons, so he is naturally familiar with it. However, he does not think there is anything valuable about this thing. At least to him, it is A dispensable thing.
"What, are you not satisfied with this thing?" Seeing his expression, Ma Mian was a little surprised at first and asked angrily.
"No, it's just a bit unexpected." Shen Luo forced out an awkward smile and said.
“Boy, don’t you know your stuff? This thing is not an ordinary psychic contract. As long as you sign this contract, if you encounter a crisis in the future, you can use this contract to summon me to help. You!" Ma Mian glared at Shen Luo and said.
"Is it okay anytime, anywhere?" Shen Luo said a little surprised.
The strength of this seducing horse face cannot be judged by his current state. I only know that it should be at least the soul condensation stage or above. If he can really get help, it will be a great thing.
However, before he could finish his joy, another basin of cold water was poured on Ma Mian's head.
"You can do it anytime, anywhere, but this contract is consumable and can only be used once. You'd better not waste it at will." Ma Mian looked at the sinking smile and gradually stiffened, and the feeling in his chest just now The depression was instantly gone.
"It can only be used once..." Shen Luo couldn't help but muttered.
"Don't you think that anyone can get this psychic contract from the underworld? Originally, according to the rules of the underworld, only a small number of destined immortal cultivators completed the tasks they received from the underworld. Only then do you have the qualifications and opportunity to get such a psychic contract!" Ma Mian shouted angrily after hearing this.
"What is an underworld mission?" Shen Luo's heart stirred, and he became somewhat interested.
"Why, you also want to take on the underworld mission? With your current cultivation level, it's really not good enough." Ma Mian pursed his lips and said.
"Your Excellency has already said it, so don't hide it. Just because I can't do it now doesn't mean I can't do it in the future." Shen Luo teased.
"Okay, let me give you a long experience! Generally speaking, the tasks in the underworld that require the power of the earth are more difficult. Immortal cultivators who have not cultivated above the soul condensation stage can join in and work with them. It's no different than seeking death. But once you complete the mission, you can get many unexpected benefits, and this psychic contract is just one of them," Guhunma said with a mysterious face.
Shen Luo wanted to ask more questions, but Ma Mian had already waved his hand, signaling him not to ask any more questions.
"Okay, this time I will make an exception and give you this psychic contract. It is out of consideration for your kindness in helping me kill evil spirits and helping me steal incense the day before yesterday. I don’t have anything more to say to you. Meaning." Ma Mian cleared his throat and said.
Although Shen Luo was unwilling to give in, the other party had already talked about this, so naturally it was not convenient to say anything more. He immediately asked Ma Mian about how to use the psychic contract.He said goodbye and left.
Time flies, and more than one month has passed.
Shen Luo has been practicing diligently in Baifu. He tried Huang Ting Jing and Chunyang Sword Jue a few more times. After finding that there was still no improvement, he simply put it aside completely and concentrated on practicing the unknown technique. He made progress. It's quite fast.
Now, his cultivation has finally broken through to the fifth level of the Qi Refining Stage, and he has become more and more skilled in the use of the Slanting Moon Step.
In the past half month, he also tried to draw the thunder talisman on the yellow paper talisman. As a result, he used up all the materials he bought before and failed to draw a single line.
Obviously, the probability of this high-level talisman becoming a talisman in reality is even slimmer than in dreams.
However, Shen Luo had already been mentally prepared for this. Although he was quite distressed, he was not too disappointed.
Fortunately, he continued to draw many small thunder symbols in his spare time, as many as fifty or sixty, and his proficiency was further improved.
In the morning of this day, Bai Xiaotian hurried back from the front yard, holding a wooden box in his hand, and knocked on the sunken door.
As soon as he entered the room, he put the wooden box on the table, picked up the teapot on the table, poured himself a glass of water, and said, "I sent someone to deliver it to your house earlier. Letter, this is what your father asked them to bring back."
Hearing this, Shen Luo hurriedly opened the wooden box and saw a stack of silver notes and two yellow gold ingots inside.
He counted the silver notes and found that there were more than three thousand taels in silver notes, and the two gold ingots both weighed one hundred taels. There was an envelope pressed at the bottom of the gold ingots and silver notes.
Shen Luo opened it and saw his father's handwriting inside, asking him to stay in Jianye with peace of mind, not to go back in a hurry, and not to miss his family, just take care of himself.
Looking at the end of the letter, he found some wrinkles on the paper there, which seemed to be marks made by finger pressure. He knew in his heart that they were probably left when his father was worried about him and clutched the letter tightly.
"My son has traveled thousands of miles and my father is worried. There is nothing I can do about it..." Bai Xiaotian saw Shen Luo looking a little sad, so he stood up and patted his shoulder, comforting him.
"What's the current situation in Chunhua County?" Shen Luo raised his head and asked.
"It's generally stable. The people in our family have been observing secretly for so long and haven't found any clues. I think those monsters have really retreated." Bai Xiaotian thought for a while and said.
"Even so, I have been bothering the White Mansion for a long time, so it's time to go back." Shen Luo put away the letter and said with a smile on his face.
"You want to go back?" Bai Xiaotian said a little surprised.
"That's right. But before I go back, I have one more thing I want to tell you." Shen Luo nodded.
"You don't mean to talk about the Chunyang Book." Bai Xiaotian was startled at first, then smiled.
"You really know." Shen Luo also laughed.
"Shen Luo, this matter is between you and Master Luo and evenThere is really no need to tell me the secrets between master and uncle. "Bai Xiaotian sighed slightly and said.
"This matter has been pressing on my heart for a long time, and I am not happy about it. When I was questioned by the ancient spirit, I didn't admit it, but in fact, the Chunyang Book was indeed in my possession. I also guessed that you already knew about this, but I don't understand why you didn't tell your elders about this? Isn't this book very important to your Bai family? "Shen Luo asked with some confusion.
"What should I tell my family to do? Is it possible to cooperate with them and seduce you with high profits, or exert coercion and coercion? I can't do this kind of thing. "Bai Xiaotian smiled casually and said.
"When my uncle handed down the Chunyang Book, he made a rule that I must pass on the Spring and Autumn Views and promise that I will never pass it on. The techniques and spells contained in the Chunyang Book are taught to people outside the Xiaomaoshan lineage. You are an inner disciple of Spring and Autumn Temple, and you are not considered an outsider. Let me ask, are you willing to inherit the treasure book and follow me back to Chunhua County to rebuild the Spring and Autumn Temple? "Shen Luo looked slightly condensed and said.
