Big dreamer

"Exactly, I didn't believe the old man's words at first, but on this trip to the Western Regions, I encountered this person and experienced this series of things, which made me feel that the fortune teller's words may not be random fabrication." Shen Luo He glanced at Yuan Tiangang and Cheng Yaojin and said softly.

"This matter is of great importance. Regardless of whether it is a coincidence or not, we must take it seriously. Mr. Cheng Guogong, please report this matter to Your Majesty later." Yuan Tiangang was silent for a moment and said to Cheng Yaojin.

"Okay." Cheng Yaojin nodded in agreement.

"Mr. Cheng Guo, before I leave, I ask you to look for the person with the plum blossom mark on his wrist. Do you have any clues?" Shen Luo looked at Cheng Yaojin and interjected. .

"Chang'an City has a population of one million. Just because the wrist has a plum blossom mark, it is really troublesome to find it. I don't have any clue." Cheng Yaojin frowned and shook his head.

"About this, something suddenly occurred to me when I was in the Western Regions. During the battle with the Dragon King of Jinghe River in the underworld that day, I had contact with Ma Xiuxiu, the daughter of the Dragon King of Jinghe River. There seemed to be a plum blossom-shaped scar on this woman's wrist." Shen Luo said.

"Seriously?" Cheng Yaojin's eyes narrowed.

"It should be right. I always thought that the plum blossom mark was something like a tattoo. This time I saw a man with a scar on his hand in Chigu City, and then I realized that there might be a scar, and then I remembered that Ma Xiuxiu." Shen Luo said.

Cheng Yaojin looked at Yuan Tiangang, who narrowed his eyes slightly and then nodded slowly.

"Since Ma Xiuxiu is suspicious, I will immediately send someone to investigate her whereabouts." Cheng Yaojin nodded heavily.

"You have worked hard all the way. Go down and rest first. Just leave Zhanguo's body here and leave the rest to us." Yuan Tiangang said with a wave of his whisk.

"Master Yuan, please wait a moment. I have something else I would like to ask you for help with?" Bai Xiaotian said suddenly.

"Oh, what's the matter?" Cheng Yaojin looked over.

"This is not my matter, but Fellow Daoist Shen. In order to resist Zhan Guo..." Bai Xiaotian glanced at Shen Luo and told him that he used a secret technique that destroyed his lifespan during the battle, and also took octagonal lotus leaves. The things that Hou Shouyuan could not increase were briefly explained.

As soon as Cheng Yaojin heard this, he immediately flew over and raised his hand to grab Shen Luo's wrist. A huge wave of warmth poured into him and circulated in his body extremely quickly.

"Nonsense! Your meridians are fine on the outside, but they are shrinking on the inside, and your life energy is mixed and impure. You have used this secret technique to deplete life span many times, and then used life-increasing treasures to make up for it, right? "Cheng Yaojin's eyes were bright and horrified, he stared at Shen Luo and shouted in a deep voice.

Shen Luo nodded silently.

"The vitality of your life is the foundation of life. How can you use it at will? Although those life-extending things can increase your life span, they will also consume your life potential. If you take other life-extending things, the effect will become worse and worse. , how can you be so ridiculous!" Cheng Yaojin looked angry but pitiful.

Shen Luo An Dao took too many life-extending substances, which were indeed harmful.

"Can Brother Shen's situation be cured?" Bai Xiaotian asked with a worried look on his face.

Shen Luo also looked at Cheng Yaojin, with a hint of hope in his eyes.

Cheng Yaojin frowned and pondered for a long time, then shook his head helplessly: "Shen Xiaoyou has done too much damage to his vitality this time, and I can't think of any way to restore it."

Shen Luo's heart twitched suddenly, and his face instantly turned pale.

He worked hard inside and outside the dream, almost paying double the price of others, and experienced dangers that ordinary monks could not imagine. He finally achieved some of his current achievements, but ended up like this.

If there are only three or four years left to live, what's the point of being strong?

"What are you so anxious about? I can't do anything. Isn't there still Yuan Guoshi here? Guoshi, do you have any idea?" Cheng Yaojin saw Shen Luo and Bai Xiaotian looking ugly, so he comforted himself and asked Yuan Tiangang.

Yuan Tiangang walked over and waved his hand, and a white light enveloped Shen Luo's body, flowing slowly and disappearing in a flash after a moment.

"It is indeed difficult to recover from such an injury, Xiaoyou Shen, but...it is not impossible to do anything." He pondered for a moment and said.

"Seriously? Please ask Yuan Guoshi for advice!" Hearing this, Shen Luo's extremely pale complexion recovered a little, and he bowed and bowed.

"Young friend Shen, you don't need to be so polite. You were hit hard this time for the sake of the common people in the world. We should help you." Yuan Tiangang raised one palm and returned the salute.

"To treat your internal injury, two things need to be done. The first thing is to practice "Sacred Tree Grace". This technique is secretly passed down by my master. It can absorb the power of the essence of plants and trees, nourish the body, and heal injuries. And cultivating to a high level can refine your own vitality, remove the bad and preserve the essence, which is just suitable for regulating your current situation." Yuan Tiangang paused and continued.

Although Shen Luo had never heard of the name "Shenmu Enze", the technique that Yuan Tiangang praised so highly must be of great importance.

"What about the second thing?" He suppressed his excitement and asked.

"Shenmu Enze can only regulate your life energy, but cannot restore it to its normal state. If you want to cure your body, you still need external help. It's just that you have taken too many life-extending substances. Ordinary life-extending spiritual substances have already Not enough. After much thought, only the Immortal Apricot from Putuo Mountain is useful for your injury. This object is consistent with the divine tree's grace properties and is easier to refine," Yuan Tiangang said slowly.

"Immortal apricot?" Shen Luo was startled, and the jade slip in the dream appeared in his mind, which contained records about the immortal apricots of Mount Putuo.

According to the jade slips, there are three innate spiritual roots and ten-thousand-year-old apricot trees in Putuo Mountain. They are said to originate from the heaven and have unimaginable effects.

Regarding the efficacy of immortal apricots, for some reason the jade slip did not elaborate on it. Instead, it recorded some unreliable rumors. Some people said that eating an immortal apricot can increase one thousand years of practice, while others say that it can increase one thousand years of life. , there are even rumors that eating one can make you fly into the sky.

"Putuo Mountain Immortal Apricot? That's right. Only this immortal thing can cure his injury. Master, do you want him to participate in this Immortal Apricot Conference?" Cheng Yaojin interjected from the side.

"Xianxing Convention?" Shen Luo was startled, he had never heard of it.

"The immortal apricots from Mount Putuo are famous in the world of immortality. They can be taken directly or used to refine elixirs. They are very effective and are coveted by all the sects in the world of immortality. However, the yield of this apricot is extremely low. Every few hundred Only a few can be produced every year. In order to avoid unnecessary fights due to immortal apricots, Putuo Mountain will hold an immortal apricot conference every time the immortal apricots mature, allowing young talents from all over the world to gather together to make friends with martial arts and decide on immortal apricots. Xing’s belongings,” Yuan Tiangang explained.

"Isn't it true that there is only one conference every few hundred years? How can Brother Shen afford to wait?" Before Shen Luo could speak, Bai Xiaotian spoke.
