This simplification is outrageous

……

Qin City, Xiaohe County.

It is more than 100 kilometers away from the center of Qin City, and it is one of the least developed counties around Qin City.

I received a report from the masses that someone was missing inexplicably around here.

At this critical point, what disappearance represents is self-evident.

Since Qiao Yuan, a young expert in solving crimes, could not be contacted, the Qin City Security Bureau immediately squeezed out a patrolman to go.

After visiting during the day, the young patrol finally determined the final location from some records of the Public Security Bureau.

The missing people are all connected to a temple.

At night, the young patrolmen came to the foot of a mountain with a group of heavily armed security officers.

"You wait here, don't go up, if I don't come down after half an hour, you leave here!" The patrolman said seriously.

There are many cases of disappearances. They may be man-made, or they may be strange spirits or strange things. Of course, secret realms are also possible.

You have to go in to know everything.

At the foot of the mountain, a team of sheriffs stood ready to watch the patrolling figures slowly being swallowed by darkness.

After half an hour.

The patrol did not show up.

An elderly sheriff hesitated and took out his walkie-talkie to make an inquiry.

However, the sound of wooden fish came from inside.

dong dong... dong dong...

In this dead night, it was very clear, like a boulder hitting the bottom of my heart, making my heart beat violently.

……

The next afternoon.

swoosh~

A man wearing a motorcycle helmet, with a black backpack on his back, and shorts was driving towards the distance at a very high speed.

The people passing by were dumbfounded.

"This guy is awesome, he wears shorts in winter!"

"Aren't you afraid of getting rheumatism?"

"It's nice to be young..."

An old man in a wheelchair showed envious eyes.

"..."

The small county town caused quite a stir because of Qiao Yuan's appearance.

In the end, Qiao Yuan, who was in a strange shape, stopped at the gate of the local security bureau.

Park the car, turn off the engine, pull out the key...all in one go.

"Hello, who is Captain Sun?"

At this moment in the Public Security Bureau, an elderly security officer who was busy asked doubtfully, "I am, are you?"

"He's from the city. The Security Bureau asked me to ask you about the missing temple case."

Hearing this, the security officer immediately became serious.

Soldiers are extremely fast, and after refusing the entertainment from the Public Security Bureau, the magistrate told the truth.

People in Xiaohe County are generally superstitious, so there are countless large and small temples here.

Whenever there are festivals, the entire county will be surrounded by smog. After the above-mentioned rectification in recent years, the situation has improved.

One after another, some temples were abandoned.

The disappearance occurred in a temple that was abandoned a few years ago and was located on the top of a mountain.

Following the explanation of the magistrate all the way, when they finally arrived at the foot of the mountain, it was already dark.

……

Qiao Yuan has almost obtained the specific situation.

Now that the target location is determined, let's be simple and rough... first determine the life and death of the hostages, and then go straight to Huanglong!

"If I don't come down in half an hour, you go back first." Qiao Yuan said.

Half an hour is enough to complete a battle. If you don't come down for more than half an hour, it can only prove one thing.

I am addicted to the pleasure of brushing the energy value.

It was very hard for the magistrate to come with him at night, and he couldn't be kept waiting for a long time.

Elderly Sheriff: "..."

Why is this sentence so familiar?

The leader sent last seemed to say the same thing.

……

The night is lonely, the mountains and trees in front of us are full of shadows, a cold wind hits from a distance, and the trees shake and make a "rustling" sound. Against the backdrop of the night, it looks even more eerie.

Following a dilapidated path, Qiao Yuan quickly reached the top of the mountain, and finally saw the temple hidden in the darkness.

The whole temple is a wooden structure, but because it has not been repaired, it looks a little dilapidated and damaged. It is surrounded by bluestone slabs to form a circle.

The handwriting on the plaque above is also weather-beaten and somewhat unclear.

Vaguely sound what temple.

Qiao Yuan stood at the gate of the temple watching for a long time, and finally knocked on the door.

Nobody bothered.

Just when Qiao Yuan was about to pull out the crafty knife to startle the snake.

The gate of the temple opened.

In the dark night, a bald head appeared.

An old monk in a monk's robe with a compassionate face looked at Qiao Yuan holding an oil lamp.

"My benefactor, what's the matter?"

Qiao Yuan withdrew the knife.

"Hello, master, I am a passing tourist, I accidentally lost my way, can I rest here for a night!"

At this moment, Qiao Yuan had pasted four "Concealment Talismans" on his body, so he looked similar to an ordinary first-order awakened person.

"There are no vacancies here, please go back..."

After finishing speaking, I want to close the door!

But Qiao Yuan reached out to stop him.

……

"The monks are compassionate. You see, it's winter. I'm wearing shorts. If you don't let me in, the Buddha will not agree." Qiao Yuan said.

The old monk took out the oil lamp and blocked the wind with one hand, while looking at Qiao Yuan's thigh, it was indeed shorts.

dong dong... dong dong...

The sound of wooden fish came from the depths of the temple.

After hearing this, the old monk opened the door to let Qiao Yuan in.

"follow me……"

Then the old monk led the way, while Qiao Yuan quietly followed behind.

The inside of the temple was pitch black, with only one dim oil lamp, which looked especially strange in this dark night.

In the end, he led Qiao Yuan to a monk's house with all kinds of twists and turns.

Pushing open the door, a rotten dusty smell hits the face, making people frown.

The old monk lit an oil lamp again, and suddenly there was some light in the dark room.

"You just stay here for one night."

After speaking, the old monk looked at Qiao Yuan again, then held the oil lamp and prepared to leave the room.

"Wait!" Qiao Yuan said.

The benevolent old monk turned around and looked at Qiao Yuan suspiciously.

"Master, have you seen the real Buddha?"

The old monk held up the oil lamp, and the faint yellow candlelight illuminated Qiao Yuan's face.

This man is laughing!

Showing a row of neat teeth.

"The Buddha is in my heart." The old monk said after hesitation.

Qiao Yuan grinned

"There is a Buddha in my heart, and everything I see is a Buddha, so do you think I look like a Buddha?"

The old monk shook his head and looked at Qiao Yuan with crazy eyes.

"Don't worry, old bald donkey, I'll add a special effect for you!"

Chapter 258 The Tricky Monk With Tattoos

Golden light... open!

A golden light spread and enveloped the old monk instantly.

With a scream, the expression of the compassionate old monk suddenly twisted.

The golden light is constantly corroding its body, and a large number of air bubbles continuously emerge from its body.

puff~

The bubbles burst.

A foul smell filled the air, black smoke rose, and corpses rolled... In a blink of an eye, the old monk turned into a puddle of liquid.

【Energy value +2】

Is it just a clone?

Picking up the oil lamp, Qiao Yuan checked the surrounding environment.

Above the head are rotten beams and the dilapidated blue-tiled roof.

Between the beams and the roof, patches of gray cobwebs were intertwined, and upon closer inspection, one could still vaguely see the remains of the insect.

A quaint incense stand in the middle was covered with thick dust, and a bowl-sized incense burner was dumped aside, and the incense ash inside had solidified.

Make sure there is no danger around!

Let yourself see what else is hidden in this temple!

Spiritual power spreads!

……

In the dead of night, the oil lamp on the edge of the desk gave off a faint light.

For a while, the room was silent, only Qiao Yuan's slight breathing echoed in the air.

The spiritual power has been spreading to the surrounding area, not letting go of any detail... behind the door, the beams of the house, the roof of the building...

Find one by one!

Zhaitang... A few broken plates that have turned yellow, and there are a few black objects inside, like the state of food after it has rotted.
