Big dreamer

"Brother Shen, don't be too polite. Eat something and get some rest early. You may not be able to sleep with ghosts crying and wolf howling outside in the middle of the night." Seeing Shen Luo agree, Wang Qiu warned again.

"good."

Shen Luo responded readily, and his stomach growled in response.

After saying that, he took a pair of black chopsticks from the hands of others with a smile, picked up a piece of meat from the pot, and put it to his mouth. When he was about to bite it, a beast's cry suddenly came from outside.

Immediately afterwards, there was a chaotic noise outside the courtyard. Wangqiu's expression changed slightly and he turned to look out the door.

"call……"

A gust of wind suddenly swept through, blowing the door open with a crash, causing the bonfire in the house to scatter sparks.

"What, what's wrong?" Shen Luo covered the piece of black meat, carefully put it into his sleeve, then pretended to chew it a few times, and said in a panic.

The sky outside the courtyard has completely darkened. The empty courtyard is pitch black and nothing can be seen.

Wangqiu looked away and saw Shen Luo's throat moving up and down, as if he was swallowing food. A smile appeared on his face and he said:

"It's okay, it's windy at night, it's always like this..."

Shen Luo seemed to be choked, thumped his chest twice, and smiled awkwardly at him.

"Brother Shen, eat slowly." Wangqiu said.

"Enough, enough, how can you be so greedy." Shen Luo waved his hands and said.

Seeing this, Wang Qiu stopped forcing him.

The middle-aged man cursed and stepped forward and closed the door again.

Just as the door was closed, Shen Luo suddenly caught a glimpse of a green light on the roof of the front yard, which seemed to be the light coming from the eyes of some kind of beast.

But he didn't say anything. Instead, he wrapped his clothes tightly, leaned back, closed his eyes and took a nap.

At night, there was a sound of tiles shaking. Shen Luo subconsciously wanted to open his eyes, but he held it back and pretended not to know. Until the sound became more and more intense, he rubbed his sleepy eyes and pretended Tsukuru woke up with a start.

When he opened his eyes to look, he found that the people who had been sitting around the fire were all standing behind the door with their backs to him, while Wang Qiu and the middle-aged man stood aside.

"Brother Shen, are you awake?" Wang Qiu asked with a smile.

"What happened?" Shen Luo asked confused.

"It's nothing, it's just that some beasts have become bolder and dare to enter this yard tonight." Wangqiu said.

Hearing this, the middle-aged man looked back and said impatiently: "What's going on? Is there something wrong with your Gu? Why hasn't he changed yet?"

"We underestimated Brother Shen. He didn't eat Gu meat at all, right?" Wang Qiu turned to Shen Luo and asked.

After hearing this, Shen Luo stopped pretending, stood up, shook his sleeves, and threw the black piece of meat on the ground.

"It's not that I don't want to eat it. It's just that the meat you prepared looks so bad. It makes people unappetizing just by looking at it. How can I eat it?" Shen Luo spread his hands and said helplessly.

"In troubled times, if you are really a refugee, why would you care about the taste of this meat? You are just eating to save your life. Brother Shen can talk like this, so he must be a monk who has already passed the age of fasting, but he just doesn't know what the realm is?" Wangqiu asked with a dry laugh.

"See for yourself, fellow Taoist Wangqiu, whatever realm you say it is, that's what it is. But before that, I still want to ask, what is your plot by bringing out these living corpses and setting up magic circles in the yard? "Shen Luo said with a smile.

Hearing that Shen Luo had seen the magic circle they had arranged, Wang Qiu was slightly surprised. Just when he was about to speak, a gust of wind suddenly blew up outside the house, and the closed door was blown open again.

In the hazy ruins outside the courtyard, a figure seemed to be walking through the ruins of the atrium, walking this way.

Shen Luo looked intently and saw a white-haired old man wearing a brocade robe and holding a yew cane. Although his beard and hair were white, his face did not look old at all. His skin was white and rosy, and he looked a bit childlike. mean.

"Hehe, she is indeed her biological daughter. The old man came here in person." The middle-aged man grinned and said.

Wang Qiu glanced outside the courtyard, frowning slightly, and a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes.

At this time, behind the white-haired old man, pairs of green eyes lit up one after another, more than a hundred pairs in total.

"Brother Shen, I won't hide it from you at this time. We are here just to hunt the fox demon and seize the demon elixir to refine the elixir. You and I are both human beings. Under such circumstances, we should abandon our past grudges and work together. It will be inevitable later. What are your benefits?" Wangqiu's eyes narrowed and he suddenly said.

"If the situation is not right, just choose to win over. Fellow Taoist Wangqiu is really good at judging the situation." Shen Luo said noncommittally.

After saying that, he took a few steps back and sat down on the lacquered wooden box placed next to the wall.

When Wangqiu saw this, his eyes suddenly narrowed, murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled again and said sincerely: "Then take a step back. As long as Brother Shen doesn't interfere, we will thank you generously afterwards."

It was obvious that he was very concerned about the "things" contained in the box.

Shen Luo raised his hand and made a "please" gesture, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

"Here we come." At this moment, the middle-aged man who had been watching the movements outside suddenly shouted.

Shen Luo also looked towards the courtyard, and saw the white-haired old man stepping into the courtyard. The eyes of a stone lion buried under a broken wall first lit up with golden light, and a horse-tethered horse was erected beside the wall. A rune pattern appeared on the pile.

Then, a stone plaque with the words "Standing still" and a section of dead wood buried in the earth also lit up with patterns. The golden light gushing out from the eyes of the stone lion hit the stone plaque and the dead wood. and horse-tethering posts, golden rays of light refracted from each other, weaving a large golden net in the courtyard.

The white-haired old man stood in the center of the golden net, imprisoned by an invisible force, and his figure became blurry and distorted, making it difficult to see clearly.

Shen Luo looked at the refracted and distorted light, secretly wondering if he could break it, so as to estimate the level of the magic circle and the strength of the two people in front of him.

When he first arrived outside Ji Lei Mountain, he discovered the magic circle here in mid-air, so he came here directly to check it out. Just to conceal his identity, he blocked all his aura and spiritual power, and then let the Wangqiu couldn't see his depth.

Judging from the auras exuding from those two people at this moment, they should only be in the middle stage of Mahayana, so Shen Luo was not in a hurry to take action, but chose to sit on the sidelines and watch the situation change before making any plans.
