Big dreamer

Chapter 61 Puzzled

When Shen Luo returned to Songfan County, it was a few minutes later than the day before, and the city gate was closed again.

"It seems that I and this Songfan County are really incompatible." Shen Luo laughed at himself, turned his horse's head, and headed for the nearby town.

Because of the coma the day before, the innkeepers in the town naturally remembered Shen Luo, and avoided him like a plague god, not to mention soliciting business.

Shen Luo didn't care about this matter, but felt relieved.

It seems that Liu Baichuan and Manager Hou didn't tell his identity. After all, this trip was kept secret from everyone. Now that he has found an opportunity, if he is too ostentatious, it is hard to guarantee that it will not spread back to Chunhua County or Chunqiu Temple, causing unnecessary trouble.

Shen Luo urged his horse to come to the small inn before, and the third son was still soliciting customers in front of the door.

"Mr. Shen, you come to the inn again, welcome!" The third son saw Shen Luo, his eyes lit up, and he stepped forward to hold the reins.

Shen Luo nodded, got off the horse, handed the reins to Xiao Sanzi, and walked into the inn.

The business in the inn was still very quiet, and there were not many people sitting in the lobby.

"Mr. Shen, you are so honored to be here!" The shopkeeper surnamed Hou was counting the accounts in the store. When he saw Shen Luo, he showed an irrepressible joy on his face and immediately threw down the account book to greet him.

"Mr. Hou is too polite. Please arrange a quieter guest room for me." Shen Luo said calmly.

"No problem, Mr., follow me. Xiao Sanzi, you take care of this place." The shopkeeper surnamed Hou agreed and led the way in front of him, which surprised the guests in the lobby. They whispered and guessed Shen Luo's identity.

The two walked through a corridor in the back hall of the inn and came to the innermost room.

There was a lush banyan tree in the yard in front of this room, facing the window. The banyan tree was tall and leafy, casting a large shadow, covering the entire room, giving people a sense of tranquility.

"This room is far from the street outside, very quiet, and the decoration inside is also the best in the shop. Do you think it's okay?" The shopkeeper surnamed Hou said as he pushed open the door and invited Shen Luo into the house.

The furniture in the house is made of mahogany, with dragons and phoenixes carved on it, antique and fragrant, and it is indeed much more upscale than the previous room.

"Not bad, this is it." Shen Luo didn't care about the decoration inside, and nodded when he saw that this place was indeed remote and quiet.

"How many days will you stay in the shop this time?" Seeing that Shen Luo was satisfied, the shopkeeper surnamed Hou rubbed his hands with some joy and asked.

"Maybe it will be two or three days. Usually, there is no need to let the waiter come to serve without my instructions. Also, please don't tell other people about my identity and the news that I am here, including Liu Baichuan." Shen Luo thought for a while and added.

"Don't worry, young master, I have no other skills, but I am absolutely tight-lipped. And Doctor Liu is out for a consultation, and it will probably take a few days to come back." Hearing this, the shopkeeper surnamed Hou immediately patted his chest and promised.

"That's good." Shen Luo said.

"Young Master, you look so tired, you must be very tired, you should take a rest first, I will ask the waiter to bring you dinner later." The shopkeeper surnamed Hou said again.

"No need to send dinner, I want to rest early." Shen Luo waved his hand.

Now he has completed the Xiaohua Yang Gong, and the Yang Gang power in his body is abundant. He is very energetic and does not feel sleepy or hungry at all. However, he will not tell outsiders about this.

"Okay, then Young Master, rest early, I will not disturb you." The shopkeeper surnamed Hou nodded with a smile, said goodbye and left, closing the door.

Shen Luo felt quite strange about the enthusiasm of the shopkeeper surnamed Hou, but after thinking about it, he did not think there was anything wrong. He could only attribute it to his fame in Chunhua County, and did not think about it anymore.

When the other party's footsteps went away, he immediately locked the door from the back and locked the window from the inside to ensure that no one could come in. Then he sat back on the bed and couldn't wait to take out the stone box. After opening it, he took out the leather scroll.

As a result, he just picked up the book and suddenly let out a light exclamation. He turned the scroll over and looked at the end of the scroll.

Behind the last page, there were obvious signs of being torn.

Before, he was only busy flipping through the ancient seal characters in the book, but he didn't pay attention to this.

"Could it be that this scroll is only half?" Shen Luo frowned slightly.

However, he didn't dwell on it too much. Half is half. Since he only found this half, it means that the boatman who became "Yu Tianshi" in Yu Yan's mouth should have only got this half.

Shen Luo calmed down and started flipping through it from the first page, reading the leather scroll word by word, trying to understand the content.

Time passed bit by bit, and half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.

Shen Luo raised his head from the book with frowned eyebrows, suddenly sighed, threw the book on the bed, and lay on the bed with his body stretched out on his back.

Although he wanted to understand the words in the leather scroll very much, he knew too few ancient seal characters, and could only recognize four or five characters on a page at most.

According to his understanding, this ancient seal script was very old and very difficult. He had only seen sporadic records in some miscellaneous notes. It was impossible to interpret the unknown characters by imagination. With his level, it was a fool's dream to want to understand the secrets in the book.

"Do I have to learn ancient seal characters first?" Shen Luo thought to himself.

But where can I learn it in a short time? At least when he was in Chunhua County, he had never heard of any great scholar in the city who could understand ancient seal characters.

Even if you can find someone who understands this kind of writing, the contents of the book may be leaked. After all, it is inevitable for a person to feel selfish after seeing such a good thing that can lead to spiritual practice.

After much thought, he couldn't come up with a safe solution.

"I wonder how that 'Master Yu' solved this problem back then? He was a boatman on the river, so he probably didn't understand ancient seal script."

"Forget it, the worst I can do is spend a year and a half trying to figure out how to learn this ancient seal script first. Anyway, I have now perfected the Small Yang Hua Gong, so I can't afford to waste this time..." Shen Luo turned over and sat up, grabbing the skin. The volume was rolled, but then there was a movement in his hand, and a trace of vigilance flashed in his eyes.
