He opened the door and saw Granny Ma standing in the courtyard, and nodded to him.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, today you not only saved the village, but also rescued Ying Luo. Looking back on my previous attitude towards you, I feel so ashamed!" Granny Ma breathed a sigh of relief, then a mixture of gratitude and guilt flashed in his eyes, and he said to Shen Luo.

"There is no need to mention the past. I am still a member of the village now, and everything I do is worthy of my conscience." Shen Luo waved his hand and said calmly.

"When those monsters surrounded the village before, they said that you had visited a place called Xianyue Sanxing Cave this time. I wonder if this is true?" Granny Ma looked hesitant, but finally said.

"Not bad." Shen Luo glanced at Granny Ma and said.

"According to the legend of the seniors in the village, Cave of the Three Stars and Crescent Moon is the retreat place where Fangcun Mountain's disciples were taught. I wonder... what's the situation inside now?" A trace of excitement flashed across Granny Ma's face, and he asked anxiously.

"Granny Ma, I know what you want to ask, but knowing too much may not be a good thing. Of course, if you are real, I won't hide it." Shen Luo said slowly.

Granny Ma trembled when he heard this, and the excitement on his face slowly disappeared. He seemed to have guessed something, and his face became pale and silent.

Shen Luo just closed the door silently, walked slowly to the center of the yard, looked up at the stars in the sky, thoughtfully.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, at my age now, apart from saving the village, my only obsession is to know what's going on on the mountain. Please... please also ask fellow Daoist to help me clear up my doubts." After a moment of silence, Granny Ma sighed and spoke again.

Shen Luo nodded, and told Granny Ma everything he saw in Cave of the Three Stars and Crescent Moon, only hiding things related to Huangting Scripture.

Granny Ma Listening to Shen Luo's narration, the trace of expectation in his cloudy eyes finally slowly faded along with the blood on his face, and his whole person looked much older.

"We Longevity Village have been waiting for these hundreds of years for generations, haha, after all, it is still an empty dream, fate plays tricks on people, fate plays tricks on people!" She laughed miserably, murmured, and two lines of tears flowed down.

Shen Luo stood aside quietly without speaking, feeling a sense of sadness in his heart.

Although Longevity Village is in a bleak situation now, it can still survive to this day. It is said that no eggs are left intact after the nest is overturned. Under Heavenly Demon Ends the World, Four Continents has many families and families destroyed, and even the entire village has been destroyed. There are probably not a few cases.

Granny Ma laughed at himself and said this, then he stood there silently with his head lowered, his lonely figure seemed to be abandoned by the world.

However, she didn't stand for too long. She quickly raised her head, and her expression seemed to have returned to its former calmness.

"Thank you Daoist Shen for telling the truth, but please don't tell other people about this matter, so as not to affect the villagers' will to survive," she said sternly.

Shen Luo Seeing that Granny Ma adjusted his mentality so quickly, he couldn't help but secretly admire him and nodded in agreement.

"There is no way I can repay the kindness of my fellow Daoist. Please accept my respects!" Granny Ma bowed to Shen Luo.

"Mother-in-law, you don't have to be like this! By the way, although Ying Luo is out of danger, he is still unconscious Yousu and needs someone to take care of him. Shen still has things to do and cannot be distracted. Please Granny Ma send someone to take care of him." Shen Luo hurriedly turned sideways to avoid Granny Ma's gift and said in a different tone.

"Of course." Granny Ma nodded.

Shen Luo nodded, turned and walked into another side room in the yard, and sat down cross-legged.

He had a big battle with Devouring Heaven Tiger today, and had just taken action to treat Ying Luo. Magic Power in his body was almost at the bottom, and Huangting Scripture recovered silently.

After Magic Power was completely recovered, he took out Seven-Star Brush, submerged Divine Sense in it, and continued to inspect the many harvests on the mountain.

"Now it seems that only the mystery of this picture has not been fully understood." After a while, he Divine Sense withdrew from Seven-Star Brush, raised his hand, and a white light flashed in his hand, and an extra picture scroll appeared, which was the Sky Bamboo Gazing at the Moon Picture.

He unfolded the scroll and looked at it carefully.

On the scroll, there is a bright full moon and green bamboos standing sideways, casting a vague shadow.

After taking a few glances, he felt his eyes blur, and the full moon and green bamboo seemed to suddenly become real, reflected in front of him.

Under the moonlight, there seemed to be a breeze blowing, and the green bamboos swayed one by one, colliding with each other, making a snapping sound. The shadows cast on the ground intertwined with the moonlight, forming a mottled shadow of light and dark, constantly changing.

Shen Luo ignored the surrounding full moon and green bamboos, and focused his gaze on the mottled Moon Shadow on the ground.

He had meditated on this picture before, and the mystery of this picture was all in the unpredictable shadows on the ground, as if an invisible person was practicing a set of fantastic footwork.

Shen Luo had discovered this before, but he was a little unsure that day. Now his cultivation level has improved compared to the first time he watched Sky Bamboo Gazing at the Moon Picture. Especially after stepping into Out-of-Body Stage, Divine Soul's power has increased sharply. When he comes to understand this picture again, many things that he couldn't understand before now feel suddenly enlightened.

"This is indeed a set of footwork, which is countless times better than Bai Family's Wind-Chasing Step Gao Ming." Shen Luo's eyes chased the changing Moon Shadow, gleaming with excitement.

After a long time, he slowly closed his eyes. The illusions around him disappeared without a trace, and all the changes in footwork in the painting were memorized by him.

After a moment, he opened his eyes, stood up, collected Sky Bamboo Gazing at the Moon Picture, and stepped out according to the footwork.

This set of footwork seems to be somewhat related to "Book of Changes". The changes in footwork coincide with the position of the sixty-four hexagrams of Book of Changes.

It's just that the change in this footwork is quite special. Sometimes when he takes the upper step, he can't get the direction of the next step. He has to make adjustments by leaping forward and backward. The walking is so awkward that when he first tried it, his steps were extremely slow and even looked a bit funny.

Fortunately, after he practiced Huangting Scripture, his physical body became extremely flexible, and he soon began to get used to it, and his pace became faster and faster.

While running, Shen Luo quickly began to understand the various mysteries contained in the footwork. Some of the weird things in the original footwork gradually became clearer.

There are no weird changes in those places, but they are clearly the essence of the extremely wonderful footwork.

Moreover, when he performs this step, the Magic Power in his body is mobilized and flows slowly in the meridians of his legs, increasing the speed of his step.

Time flew by unknowingly, and Shen Luo was immersed in this wonderful set of steps, entering a state of selflessness.

In the room, Shen Luo's figure flashed like a ghost, his footwork changed intricately, and his speed became faster and faster. In the end, the whole person almost became a line, and there were vague afterimages behind him.

After a moment, the figure of the fast Mercedes-Benz suddenly stood still, motionless like an iron stake digging into the ground, and a series of afterimages behind him immediately returned to their positions.

"Happy!" Shen Luo let out a cheerful shout.
