"Brother Shen, you don't have to be so courteous. Eat something and rest early. It will be wailing like ghosts and howling like wolves outside in the middle of the night. You might not be able to sleep." Wang Qiu saw that Shen Luo had agreed and reminded him again.
"Okay."
Shen Luo replied straightforwardly. Her stomach also let out a "gu" sound.
After that, he smiled and took a pair of black chopsticks from the hand of the person next to him. He picked up a piece of meat from the pot and put it to his mouth. When he was about to bite it, there was suddenly the sound of a beast roaring outside.
Then, there was a burst of noise outside the courtyard. Wang Qiu's expression changed slightly, and he turned his head to look outside the door.
"Hu …"
A gust of wind suddenly swept in, blowing the door open with a "hua la" sound, and the bonfire in the house splashed sparks.
"What, what's wrong?" Shen Luo covered the piece of black meat and carefully put it into his sleeve. Then, he pretended to chew a few times and smacked his lips in panic.
The sky outside the courtyard had already turned completely dark. The empty courtyard was pitch-black, and nothing could be seen at all.
Wang Qiu retracted his gaze and looked at Shen Luo's throat moving up and down, as if he was swallowing food. Wang Qiu smiled and said,
"It's okay. It's windy at night. It's always like this."
Shen Luo, on the other hand, looked like he was choking. He pounded his own chest twice and smiled awkwardly at him.
"Shen Brothers, eat slowly." Wang Qiu said.
"Enough, enough. How can I be so greedy." Shen Luo waved his hand and said.
Wang Qiu saw this and no longer insisted.
The middle-aged man cursed as he walked forward and closed the door again.
At the moment when the door was closed, Shen Luo suddenly caught a glimpse of a green light on the ridge of the front courtyard. It seemed to be the light from the eyes of some kind of beast.
But he didn't say anything. Instead, he wrapped his clothes tightly around himself, leaned back, and closed his eyes to rest.
In the night, the sound of tiles moving could be heard. Shen Luo subconsciously wanted to open his eyes, but he forced himself to hold back and pretended that he didn't know anything. It wasn't until the sound became more and more frequent that he rubbed his sleepy eyes and pretended to wake up.
When he opened his eyes, he found that the people who were sitting around the bonfire were all standing behind the door with their backs to him. Wang Qiu and the middle-aged man stood aside.
"Shen Brothers, you're awake?" Wang Qiu asked with a smile.
"What happened?" Shen Luo was puzzled.
"It's nothing. It's just that some animals have become bolder. They actually dared to enter this courtyard tonight." Wang Qiu said.
When the middle-aged man heard this, he turned around and said impatiently, "What's the matter? Is there a problem with your Gu worm? Why hasn't he changed? "
"We underestimated the Shen Brothers. He didn't eat the venomous insect meat at all, right?" Wang Qiu turned to Shen Luo and asked.
Shen Luo listened and stopped pretending. He 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 is too ugly. It makes people lose their appetite. How can I eat it?" Shen Luo spread out his hands and said helplessly.
"In this chaotic world, if you're really a refugee, why would you care about the taste of the meat? It's just to save your life. The Shen Brothers can speak like this. I think you're already a cultivator. But what's your realm? "Wang Qiu laughed and asked.
"Mr. Wang Qiu, you can see for yourself. Whatever realm you say it is, that's what realm it is. But before that, I still want to ask you something. What are you planning to do by making these living corpses and setting up a magic array in the courtyard? "Shen Luo couldn't help but laugh.
Hearing that Shen Luo saw the array they set up, Wang Qiu was slightly surprised. When he was about to speak, a gust of wind suddenly blew outside the house. The closed door was blown open by the wind again.
In the ruins outside the courtyard, there seemed to be a figure passing through the ruins of the atrium and coming here.
Shen Luo looked over and found a white-haired old man wearing a brocade robe and holding a purple walking stick. Although his hair and beard were all white, his face did not look old at all. His skin was white with a hint of red, and he looked a little bit like a young man with white hair.
"Hehe, it's really his biological daughter. The old man came in person." The middle-aged man grinned and said.
Wang Qiu glanced outside the courtyard and frowned slightly. 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. There were more than a hundred pairs.
"Shen Brothers, at this time, I won't hide it from you. We are only here to hunt the fox demon and seize the demon pill to refine the elixir. You and I are both from the Human Clan. In this case, we should abandon the past and work together. After that, you will benefit a lot. What do you think?" Wang Qiu suddenly said.
"When the situation is not right, you choose to rope me in. Mr. Wang Qiu is really good at judging the situation." Shen Luo said noncommittally.
After that, he stepped back a few steps and sat down on the lacquered wooden box placed by the wall.
Wang Qiu saw this and suddenly narrowed his eyes. A murderous look flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled and said sincerely, "Then take a step back. As long as the Shen Brothers don't intervene, we will also give you a generous gift after that."
It could be seen that he was very concerned about the "things" in the box.
Shen Luo raised his hand and made a "go ahead" gesture. He neither agreed nor disagreed.
"He's here." At this time, the middle-aged man who had been watching the situation outside suddenly shouted.
Shen Luo also looked towards the courtyard and saw the white-haired old man step into the courtyard. The eyes of a stone lion buried under the broken wall first lit up with a golden light, and a rune appeared on a hitching post erected by the wall.
After that, a stone plaque with the words' Self-Restraint 'and a piece of pitch-black dead wood buried in the ground also lit up with a formation pattern. The golden light that surged out from the eyes of the stone lions hit the stone plaque, the dead wood, and the hitching post. Rays of golden light refracted from each other and weaved into a huge golden net in the courtyard.
The white-haired old man stood in the middle of the golden net and was imprisoned by an invisible force. His body became a little blurry and distorted, making it difficult to see clearly.
Shen Luo looked at the refracted and distorted light and secretly thought about whether he could break it. From this, he could estimate the level of this array and the strength of the two people in front of him.
Previously, when he first arrived outside Jilei Mountain, he discovered the formation in mid-air, so he came here directly to check it out. However, in order to conceal his identity, he sealed his breath and Divine Sense, so that Wang Qiu could not see his depth.
Judging from the aura of the two people at the moment, they should only be in the middle dacheng stage, so Shen Luo was not in a hurry to make a move. Instead, he chose to be a bystander, intending to see the changes in the situation before making a plan.
