"Brother Lu, do you know the immobilization spell?"
Lu Zheng nodded. If it weren't for the immobilization spell, he really wouldn't have been able to defeat Gao Junyu so quickly.
Hu Yijun, "..."
Gao Xiu, "..."
Wang Muran, "..."
Hu Yijun realized that the time he had been in contact with Lu Zheng was too short, and he actually didn't know much about each other.
In the past, I only knew that the other party was an outer sect layman from Baiyun Temple, who also practiced martial arts and flying swords, and had a fiancée who was a fox girl with good qualifications.
In addition, he has a very good character, knowledge, and extraordinary bearing. He saved Wang Yuzhi's life and taught Hu Zhou very well. Otherwise, Hu Yijun would not have looked at him differently and recognized this brother.
Looking back now, I find that he can produce the best wine, rare spices, and ordinary magic weapons. In addition, he has only practiced Taoism for two years, and he has actually learned the Taoist body-holding spell...
Hu Yijun touched his beard. It seems that his son's master is really extraordinary?
The path is still shallow, but the future is promising.
…
After being defeated by the immobilizing spell, Gao Junyu discovered that Lu Zheng could also master the mysterious magic. Gao Junyu was convinced and handed the Coiling Dragon Spear to the maid, and then ate with Hu Zhou and several elders.
After setting the engagement date and having lunch, Gao Xiu took her husband and daughter to say goodbye and left.
Lu Zheng stayed another night and gave Hu Zhou a new sword, with a tiger head guard and a tiger claw handle. It was majestic, cool and hard.
That night, Hu Yijun came to him specifically and explained to him the key points of practicing the "Western Wind Calling Curse". Only then did he realize that Lu Zheng had already understood this wind spell at a very deep stage.
Hu Yijun finally saw that Lu Zheng was not only fast in cultivation, but also fast in learning various techniques.
The next day, Lu Zheng said goodbye, declined Hu Yijun's kindness to send him off in the wind, and promised to come to Hu Zhou when they got married, so he went down the mountain alone and fled far away.
…
Tonglin County, Taohuaping.
Shen Yingzheng and Liu Qingyan were playing chess under the old peach tree, but both of them had wandering eyes and lost their minds.
"Did Lu Lang really go to southern Xinjiang?" Liu Qingyan couldn't help but ask again.
"I don't know." Shen Ying shook her head, "But in the past few days, the power of incense coming from the south has increased suddenly..."
Shen Ying was very worried in her words, "Imagine that Lu Lang has been away for a few days. With his walking distance, he can just reach the Taomu Mountain..."
Liu Qingyan suppressed her uneasiness, "If Lu Lang really took action, looking at the changes in Xianghuo's telepathy, wouldn't it mean that everything went well?"
Shen Ying frowned slightly, took a deep breath, and casually said, "I hope so."
Shen Ying and Liu Qingyan looked at each other, not expressing a single worry in their hearts.
Judging from the time, if Lu Zheng really killed the Peach Mother Sacred Tree and was fine, he would have returned to Tonglin County by now.
But there was no news about him.
Moreover, no matter how they thought, neither of them could figure out how Lu Zheng, with his two or three hundred years of Taoism, could deal with the thousand-year-old peach tree spirit?
"Could it be that we guessed wrong and this is just a coincidence?" Liu Qingyan asked, "Lu Lang did not go to southern Xinjiang. This change in the power of southern incense has nothing to do with Lu Lang?"
Shen Ying sighed, "I really hope I guessed wrong, but..."
"But what?"
"But Lu Lang really can't lie."
Shen Ying's eyes were watery, showing worry and emotion, "Lu Lang doesn't shy away from mentioning the peach tree spirit when we meet with me on weekdays, but he never mentioned it when he accompanied me twice before leaving..."
"He's afraid you'll be worried?"
"I was also worried that I would find out." Shen Ying said, "I didn't think much about it at the time. It was only when the incense smell suddenly increased a few days ago that I thought of it."
Liu Qingyan thought of the several times Lu Zheng rescued her, and her eyes were filled with love.
"Lu Lang never does anything that is uncertain." Liu Qingyan knew Lu Zheng better, "It took a long time last time when the thousand-year-old peach demon attacked, and Lu Lang didn't take action at that time. If he goes again now, he will treat it as a threat.
I am absolutely sure.”
Shen Ying immediately asked, "Then why didn't he tell me?"
Liu Qingyan didn't know how to explain it.
"Ten days have passed since the incense smell increased, and Lu Lang is still missing." Shen Ying looked towards the south, with worry in her eyes, "Could it be that he was also injured...injured...Lu Lang!?"
Liu Qingyan hurriedly turned around and saw Lu Zheng standing at the door of Taohua Village, standing with his hands behind his hands, looking at them and smiling.
"I'll come back, wu——"
As soon as he said half a sentence, Shen Ying jumped on him and blocked his mouth.
Good guy, we just haven’t seen each other for half a month. Are you so excited?
Being hugged by Shen Ying, she turned her eyes and saw that Liu Qingyan also had tears in her eyes, which shocked Lu Zheng.
What's going on?
Patting Shen Yingyu's back, she felt a little calmer and let go of herself.
Lu Zheng took a breath and finally asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Before Liu Qingyan opened her mouth, Shen Ying asked flatly, "Why didn't you tell me when you went to southern Xinjiang to kill the thousand-year-old peach tree spirit?"
Lu Zheng:(⊙o⊙)
"How did you know!?"
Liu Qingyan immediately asked, "Did you really go to Southern Xinjiang!?"
Lu Zheng:(⊙o⊙)
Turning around suddenly, she saw Shen Ying's eyes filled with tears, but not smiling.
Damn it! I was scammed!
Lu Zheng was about to explain, but Shen Ying didn't give him a chance to explain!
"Don't wait yet, wu-hurry, wu-"
…
After a while.
Lu Zheng collapsed on a deck chair, rocking under the old peach tree.
Xiao Cui made tea for Lu Zheng, and Shen Ying handed it to Lu Zheng.
Liu Qingyan held a round fan in her hand and gently fanned Lu Zheng.
Three people and six pairs of eyes were fixed on Lu Zheng's face.
"What are you looking at me doing?"
"Waiting for you to tell me!" Liu Qingyan said hurriedly, "How did you kill that thousand-year-old peach tree spirit?"
But Lu Zheng asked first, "How did you know that I went to southern Xinjiang?"
Then Shen Ying talked about the recent changes in the aroma of incense, with the number coming from southern Xinjiang greatly increasing.
Lu Zheng understood, and then said, "It's probably just a flash in the pan, and it might disappear soon."
Shen Ying didn't care. The fragrant smell in southern Xinjiang would be gone if it disappeared. Anyway, now there are wisps of fragrant smell coming from all over the scenery. Although there are many of them, she doesn't feel bad if they are gone.
But Liu Qingyan was very curious, "Why is it gone? Not only did you kill the peach demon, but you also burned the peach mountain?"
"Um……"
Lu Zheng rubbed his chin, "It's probably more or less the same. Anyway, the Taomu Mountain is gone. Even if the mountain people are still offering their customary blessings, they probably won't last long."
After all, Tao Mu is dead, and half of Tao Mu's sacred mountain has collapsed. No matter whether there are new forces or masters occupying it, the mountain people there will gradually stop worshiping Tao Mu.
Shen Ying couldn't help but ask, "What do you mean roughly? How did you do it?"
Lu Zheng shrugged and smiled mysteriously, "The master's secret technique cannot be explained, it cannot be explained~"
Since I can't explain it, I won't explain it at all. One sentence of the master's secret technique can perfectly solve all doubts.
So the two of them stopped asking. Shen Ying also understood the reason why Lu Zheng didn't talk about it, "Because it's hard to explain, and Lu Lang was afraid that I would be worried, so he left without telling me?"
