Big dreamer

Taoist Luo leaned slightly to the side, glanced at the wooden box on the table, and then sighed and said:

"Alas, when I was at your home, I had already told you how to prolong your life. I made an exception to give you Hongxuesan and Xiaohuayanggong, but you have no talent for cultivation, and even these most basic techniques can cause problems. I don't know if I accepted you at that time to save you or to harm you."

"Master Luo, you are too kind. If it weren't for Master Luo, I would have turned into a pile of yellow earth. Master, I will always remember your kindness in saving me." Shen Luo shook his head repeatedly.

Taoist Luo's expression eased greatly after hearing this, and he was obviously quite benefited.

"Master Luo, I don't know if there are other ways. No matter how much it costs, I am willing to pay." Shen Luo said again, and the last two sentences were pronounced very strongly.

"Forget it. For you, I am willing to make an exception again. As long as you can complete the practice of Xiao Hua Yang Gong within three years, I can help ask the master of the temple for mercy again and let him agree to pass on the first level of the Pure Yang Sword Technique to you. We can talk about the price at that time, but the chance is also small." Taoist Luo was silent for a moment, then sighed and said.

Within three years? Didn't Master Feng Yang conclude that I would not live for more than two years?

Shen Luo was puzzled, but he still thanked him repeatedly.

"You don't have to thank me in a hurry. I can tell you very clearly that I don't think this method is good. After all, with your qualifications, it is almost impossible to complete the practice of Xiao Hua Yang Gong within three years. So I advise you to rest more and spend some time looking for elixirs and immortal herbs that can prolong your life. This is the right way." Master Luo waved his hand and said enlighteningly.

"Where can such a life-saving thing be found? Is there any in the temple?" Shen Luo couldn't help asking.

"If there is one in the temple, why should I ask you to look for it elsewhere? The elixir that can really prolong life is out of reach even for ordinary immortal cultivators. Once it appears, it will basically be scrambled for by cultivators from all walks of life. Ordinary people can't even see it. Even if you are lucky enough to see it, you may not be able to buy it even if you spend all your money." Taoist Luo stood up, put his hands behind his back, and said slowly.

"Why can't gold and silver be purchased?" Shen Luo was a little confused.

These days, he said that he relied on Xiaohuayang Gong and Hongxue Powder to prolong his life, but which of these was not bought with silver? The two hundred gold when he entered the temple, and the two thousand taels of silver sent by his family every year, which one is not his life-extending thing?

"You haven't set foot on this path yet, so naturally you don't know that these real gold and silver are no different from stubborn stones and dead wood in the eyes of truly advanced cultivators. Even if they need to exchange goods, they use the legendary fairy jade." Taoist Luo said.

Shen Luo was struck by lightning when he heard this.

He actually knew the name of the fairy jade. Bai Xiaotian had mentioned it to him, and he had also seen it in some miscellaneous books. It was real fairy money. Not to mention that their Shen family was a county merchant, even the merchants in the state capital might not have seen it.

"To buy the immortal medicine for life extension, you naturally need fairy money..."

Shen Luo felt powerless. He seemed to have lost even the last bit of financial support.

Seeing his eyes gradually dim, Luo Daoren also flashed a trace of reluctance between his eyebrows.

When Shen Luo was excited, he suddenly thought of something.

The culprit who caused him to lose his vitality was the strange jade pillow. Perhaps he could find a solution from this thing and find a way to save himself. And he had no way to deal with this jade pillow, but it didn't mean that others couldn't?

This thing has greatly reduced his life span. Even if it is a treasure, he must save his life first. If it really doesn't work, he can use this thing to exchange for some benefits from the temple.

"Master Luo..." After some hesitation, Shen Luo finally made up his mind and tried to mention something about the jade pillow. However, just as he opened his mouth, his head suddenly buzzed, and a sharp sound that he had never heard before but almost pierced his eardrums came like a tide, making his eyes suddenly black and falling to the side. Taoist Luo was stunned, but immediately grabbed his shoulders and carried him to a chair to sit down. When Shen Luo's head was dizzy, Taoist Luo frowned and held his wrist, holding three fingers on the three pulses of Cun, Guan and Chi respectively, holding his breath to check. After a while, he shook his head and let go. "The pulse is weak, which is indeed the backlash of the practice. The loss of vitality is not light. How did you practice and why is it like this?" Shen Luo's forehead was sweating, and he reluctantly said a few things about his daily practice. "Ah..."

Just when he thought about it and wanted to mention the jade pillow again, the violent roar in his head suddenly sounded again, making him scream.

Luo Daoren's face became serious, and he held his back. A red light lit up in his palm, and then a warm current flowed from the back into his body, making Shen Luo feel warm, and the remaining buzzing sound in his head gradually disappeared.

"What's going on? Could it be..." Shen Luo's body was also soaked with cold sweat, and he was panic-stricken.

However, when he once again had the idea of ​​talking about the jade pillow, the sharp roar sounded in his head again, which was even more severe than the previous two times, making him unable to speak at all.

"What's wrong with you?" Luo Daoren also noticed his abnormality and asked.

"My body... my body is a little weak. I think it's... the backlash of the skills..." Shen Luo said a little breathlessly. He didn't dare to lead his thoughts to the jade pillow at this moment.

"Stop practicing for the next few days. Take this Hongxue Powder back. Don't take it all at once, but in three doses. Otherwise, your body and bones may not be able to hold on." Taoist Luo took out a paper bag from his arms and stuffed it into the sink. He dropped it into his hand, and at the same time, the palm of his other hand glowed with red light again, and he patted several large acupoints on Shen Hou's back.

"Thank you, Master Luo." It took Shen Luo a long time to regain his composure, and he hurriedly thanked him.

He did not dare to stay any longer, and after saying goodbye to Taoist Luo, he said goodbye and left.

Taoren Luo watched Shen Luo's staggering back disappear outside the door, rubbed the gold ingot in his sleeve, and frowned.

"Speaking of which, this guy is pretty good. It's a pity... It seems that in two years, he will have to find another registered disciple from a wealthy family..." After muttering to himself, he waved his sleeves and walked into the room. The four doors outside the courtyard all clicked and closed on their own.

…

The night is deep, and the quiet room on the first floor of Qingshiping near the cliff is still lit by candlelight.

Shen Luo was sitting at the table, with the strange jade pillow in front of him. His eyes fell on it, but his eyes were a little wandering.

The things he encountered at Master Luo's place before were so unbelievable that Shen Luo couldn't figure out what kind of power was preventing him from telling the secret about the jade pillow?
