This simplification is outrageous

"The awakened ones who come out at night in Sifang City will disappear inexplicably!"

A gust of gloomy wind blew by, hiding in a corner, out of the moonlight, the greasy man's expression at the moment looked extremely gloomy.

……

"Oh my god, it's terrible, what should I do then?" Qiao Yuan exclaimed like a frightened bird.

"It's too dangerous outside, let's go into the temple." The greasy man pointed to the small temple in the distance.

An inconspicuous small temple shone faintly under the moonlight, as if it was covered with a layer of tulle, looming.

"That's great!" Qiao Yuan said.

So the two walked towards the temple one after the other. The greasy man led the way first, followed by Qiao Yuan. Just as Qiao Yuan was about to step through the gate, he suddenly withdrew his foot again.

Looking at the darkness in the temple, I don't know what to think.

"My friend, what's the matter? Why don't you come in?"

The temple was terribly dark, Qiao Yuan couldn't see where the greasy man was at all, he could only hear his voice.

After pondering for a while, Qiao Yuan said, "I suddenly remembered an old saying."

"What? Why don't you come in and talk about it?" The greasy man's voice seemed hurried.

"No one enters the temple!"

……

After a long time, the cold voice of the greasy man came from the courtyard again.

"We are two people!"

Qiao Yuan shook his head.

"What if you're not human!"

As soon as the words fell, Qiao Yuan immediately drew out his big knife, retreated violently, and slashed at this unremarkable temple.

Breaking the precepts of swordsmanship!

A huge scarlet sword light descended from the sky!

"Bang~!"

The loud noise was deafening.

The entire ruined temple shook violently. Where the knife light passed, cracks appeared in the temple body and spread out instantly. In the blink of an eye, the temple became shattered and turned into dust.

A figure flew out backwards.

Qiao Yuan chased after him like a ghost, swung a big knife in his hand, and killed him directly.

Immediately afterwards, a plume of black smoke floated from his body, and finally wrapped around Qiao Yuan.

Qiao Yuan had a weird expression on his face.

The energy fluctuations in this person's body are very strange, like those peddlers but also like awakened ones.

And the strength is not weak, with the strength of a third-order awakened person!

Sifang City at night really has secrets!

With this doubt, Qiao Yuan withdrew his knife and continued walking forward.

……

After walking for more than half an hour, Qiao Yuan had nothing else to gain except that he was attracted by the black smoke and gained 3 special energy points.

Continue exploring a few streets.

Qiao Yuan also met several normal awakened people.

But there was an expression of please do not approach on his face, so Qiao Yuan had no choice but to give up.

Before he knew it, Qiao Yuan came to a rather desolate street.

There are not even those fixed booths here, it is very tidy!

Ok?

This is……

Suddenly, Qiao Yuan noticed something dropped on the ground and took a closer look.

It's actually those foods that are rich in aura!

A cucumber!

Who is so careless?

How dare you drop something like this on the ground?

Fortunately, I met my honest self, and I would be greedy if I were someone else!

Picking up the cucumber, Qiao Yuan looked around, and finally found another apple not far away.

Pick up the apple, and a banana appears next to a courtyard.

Qiao Yuan: "..."

……

After walking and picking all the way, Qiao Yuan finally came to a dilapidated private house.

At this time, Qiao Yuan also had a dozen fruits in his hand.

Looking at the fruit in his hand, Qiao Yuan was thoughtful, and his eyes gradually moved to the courtyard with white lanterns.

Pushed the door.

Shut tight.

So I climbed over the wall and entered. After searching in the front yard to no avail, I came to the backyard... I found a person in the backyard full of weeds.

A short, stout man wearing a hat was carrying a package, standing beside a dry well made of piled stones.

It seemed to be looking at the bottom of the well, and there was no movement for a long time.

After noticing Qiao Yuan's approach, the man turned his head with a smile on his face.

"My friend, you came just in time!"

"I found a gem and now need someone to develop it with me!"

……

Qiao Yuan put down the melon and fruit, showing a simple and honest smile with no experience in the world, and showing a row of neat and white teeth.

"What baby?"

The man beckoned mysteriously for Qiao Yuan to come over.

"Come here and I'll tell you."

Qiao Yuan trotted for two steps, and finally seemed to remember something, and stopped again, with a hesitant expression on his face, vividly interpreting the performance of a weak awakened person in the face of temptation.

"I've heard from others that some awakened ones have disappeared recently, so don't trust strangers, and don't wander around..."

The man by the well shook his head.

"Who told you this? With ulterior motives!"

"The person who told you this must not have told you why!"

Qiao Yuan: "What's the reason?"

"Do you know the food sold by those hawkers during the day? Don't you wonder where they picked it? Let me tell you, I discovered this secret. At night in Sifang City, this kind of food rich in aura will only grow in certain specific places. fruit!"

"Look at your face, I'll only tell you one person, don't tell others."

"I picked all this bag in the well, you see!"

The man puts down the package, revealing the food inside.

There are a variety of beautiful things in eyes, all of which are spiritual food with a high concentration of spiritual energy.

"There are still a lot of them, but I picked the ones at the edge, and now I need someone to work with me to pick the innermost ones..."

"It's fine if you don't help, I'll call someone else... It's conservatively estimated that it weighs more than ten catties..."

"It's not impossible to break through the fourth level..."

……

Facing the temptation of spiritual food and breakthrough, Qiao Yuan's face turned rosy, and his breathing became short of breath.

"Don't call someone else, I am willing!"

"I knew that there are still many good people in this world. Thank you. I was lucky to meet you!" Qiao Yuan hurried over, held the man's hand, and shook it excitedly, with an expression of resentment for seeing each other late. .

"It's okay, we are all awakened people, meeting is fate, you go down to pick, and I will meet you from above!" The man pointed to the rope above the well.

Qiao Yuan cast a glance.

It was pitch black in the well, and the moonlight could not reach the bottom.

"But... I'm timid and afraid of the dark, why don't you go down?" Qiao Yuan showed a scared expression.

"It's okay, I'm here, I've explored it, the well isn't deep..." the man declined.

"Really? You won't lie to me?"

"will not!"

"..."

After coming and going, the expression on Qiao Yuan's face gradually changed.

At this time, an imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of the man's mouth.

"Ah, look, there's a human head in the well!"

Suddenly, Qiao Yuan jumped up in fear.

The man frowned and bent down to look at the bottom of the well.

sigh~

Qiao Yuan quickly pulled out the big knife and slapped it hard on the neck.

Immediately, the man's head fell apart, and after a long while, there was a sound of landing at the bottom of the well.

"I said there was a head, but it's too early." Qiao Yuan said lightly.

A wisp of black smoke emerged from the bottom of the well, wrapping around Qiao Yuan.

Another peddler who became an awakened person!

How many secrets are still hidden in this Sifang City?

……

After waiting for a few minutes, he gained another 3 special energy points.

Qiao Yuan was about to leave here and continue to look for the target.

woohoo~

A small whimper came out.

Qiao Yuan stopped in his tracks, with an honest expression on his face again.

Looking for the sound through the backyard, I finally found the source of the sound.

It's the firewood room!

Pushing the door open, a woman in disheveled clothes was tied up in the corner of the woodpile. The moment she saw Qiao Yuan, her face showed horror, her eyes were flickering with fear and panic, and she kept whining. whine.

"woo woo woo woo……"

Qiao Yuan quickly covered his eyes with his hands.

"See no evil, see no evil..."

"I'll untie the rope for you now, don't you want to shout?"

After groping twice, Qiao Yuan untied the rope for the woman.
