Shen Luo shook his head and said, "Not really. It's just some basic Cultivation Methods used to strengthen the body."
"Okay, I'll keep it in mind." Shen Yuange nodded.
"Although it's just a basic Cultivation Method, it's different from Jianghu skills. Once the news is leaked, it'll inevitably attract others' attention. If I'm not at home, it'll definitely be a disaster. So remember to keep it a secret." Shen Luo reminded him.
"I know the benefits. I'll keep it a secret." Shen Yuange said solemnly.
"In addition, when these two Cultivation Methods are handed over to the disciples in the family to practice, they must first check their temperament and character. Those with bad character can't be taught easily. Or … I can give it to Shen Ci and Mumu for the time being. The others can wait and see, "Shen Luo said while thinking.
As for what they should wait for, he didn't say. In fact, he wanted to wait until someone among Shen Ci and Mumu could pass on the Nameless Cultivation Method to them.
"Okay, we'll do as you say." Shen Yuange nodded heavily and said.
Finished speaking, he carried out a small lacquered wooden box from his room. He carefully placed the three stacks of rice paper filled with scriptures and cultivation methods into the box. He carefully locked the box and placed it in a secret compartment.
After everything was done, the two, who hadn't had a good chat for a long time, sat in the study and talked for a long time.
In the end, Shen Luo suddenly said that he wanted to eat elm rice, but unfortunately, it was not the right season.
The next morning, Shen Luo didn't say goodbye to anyone. He just took the stone box and hurried out of the county.
…
In a flash, three months had passed.
At the end of April, Yuzhou was at the end of the rainy season. The continuous rain had stopped, but the sky was still covered with a layer of dark clouds.
Dali Mountain of Pingqiu County was shrouded in a layer of hazy fog. Looking from afar, the peaks were blurry, but up close, one could see a moist green color. A grayish-white mountain path was hidden in the midst, winding and winding.
On the somewhat muddy mountain path, a tall figure wearing a bamboo hat and a cloak appeared. His pace was neither fast nor slow. Behind him was a handsome black horse, rushing towards the end of the mountain path.
At the end of the mountain path, a two-story black wooden building could be seen in the distance. In the front yard, there was a wooden pole that was thirty to forty feet tall. A banner hung from the pole with the word "Wine" written on it.
The man led the horse to the front of the courtyard and saw a young man who looked like a waiter pouring fodder into the horse trough. There were a few horses tied to the horse post next to him.
When the waiter heard the sound of horse hooves behind him, he hurriedly poured all the fodder in the winnowing basket into the basket and turned around to greet them.
"Sir, are you looking for a meal or a place to stay?" He took the reins familiarly and asked.
That person took off his bamboo hat, revealing a rather handsome young face. It was Shen Luo.
"Stay in the inn," Shen Luo said with a smile.
The waiter quickly tied the black horse to the horse trough and led the way to the black wooden building.
There were a few steps in front of the building and a thick cotton curtain hung on the door. The waiter opened the curtain and made a gesture to let Shen Luo go in first.
Shen Luo stepped over the threshold and walked in. His nose wrinkled slightly as he smelled a strong smell of wine.
He looked around and found that the interior wasn't very big. On the right side of the door, there was a counter that was half the height of a person. On the shelf behind it, there were jars of wine sealed with mud.
There were seven or eight black tables in the room. Their surfaces were glossy with oil. They were obviously old objects that had been used for many years.
On the wall facing the door, there were three open windows. There was a wooden table next to each window. In the middle of the table, there was a young man in a blue brocade robe sitting sideways. He was holding a wine cup in one hand and turning his head to look outside the window.
Shen Luo glanced at him and came to the counter. He said a few words to the stout innkeeper standing behind and booked a room on the second floor.
"Guest, do you want to take a rest now or eat something first? Our mountain inn doesn't have any exotic delicacies, but there are some wild game. The taste of our home-brewed green plum wine is also good, "the stout innkeeper said with a smile.
"Since the innkeeper has recommended so much, I naturally have to try it," Shen Luo said with a smile.
"Well, I'm sure you'll be satisfied," the innkeeper said with a smile.
Shen Luo ordered a few dishes and a pot of green plum wine. He went to another table by the window and sat down. He also turned his head to look outside the window like the young man in the brocade robe.
His eyes couldn't help but light up. He couldn't take his eyes back for a long time.
It turned out that just outside the window, there was a cliff of a thousand feet. The cliffs extended from the back of the inn in an arc. Each of them formed a huge semicircle and converged at a distance of three thousand feet.
The inn was built next to a huge sinkhole with a diameter of three thousand feet.
Inside the sinkhole, there was a lush green vegetation. Inside the sinkhole, there was mist and smoke rising. The scenery was beautiful.
"The scenery here is very good, right?" At this time, a gentle voice suddenly sounded.
Shen Luo looked in the direction of the voice and found that the young man at the next table was talking to him. When he was about to answer, he suddenly froze on the spot.
He saw that the man had soft blue hair tied up with a white jade crown. He had a young and handsome face. Although there was no prominent short horn on his forehead, Shen Luo recognized him at a glance. He was the Ninth Prince of the East Sea Dragon Palace, Ao Hong!
"Why is he here? Why is he here? Is he also here for the Blue-eyed Golden Toad? "Shen Luo's mind suddenly had many questions.
According to the travel records, the Blue-eyed Golden Toad appeared in the sinkhole of Dali Mountain in Pingqiu County, Yuzhou.
"Ahem …" Seeing that Shen Luo was a little stunned, Ao Hong seemed to feel a little embarrassed and coughed softly.
Shen Luo came back to his senses and cupped his fists, "Sorry, I didn't react for a moment."
"It was me who spoke abruptly." Ao Hong cupped his fists in return and smiled gently.
At this time, the waiter had already brought a pot of green plum wine to Shen Luo.
"We are both traveling alone. Young Master, do you mind sitting at the same table and having a drink?" Shen Luo's heart moved slightly. He picked up the wine pot and took the initiative to walk to Ao Hong's table and asked with a smile.
"Your Excellency's hospitality is more than welcome. I am Ao Hong from the East Sea. May I know how to address you? "Ao Hong was slightly stunned. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes and then he smiled.
"I am Shen Luo, from Dengzhou." Shen Luo saw that Ao Hong used his real name and replied immediately.
At this moment, he also understood that the reason why Ao Hong recognized him a thousand years later was probably because of this chance encounter.
"Dengzhou … It is not close to Yuzhou. Why did Brother Shen come here?" Ao Hong thought for a moment and asked.
