I was reborn after playing a good hand badly

What really made Su Mo stop was an enticing fragrance. It was unknown what delicious food the fragrance came from, but it made him salivate.

Looking sideways, he saw a large restaurant with five doors. The aroma of food wafted in the air, and Su Mo couldn't walk anymore.

At this moment, a young man in a blue cloth shorts and with a big smile on his face came over quickly and said to Su Mo, "Please come in, sir, and try our specialty dishes!"

Su Mo swallowed and followed the waiter into the store.

"Please come this way." The waiter greeted her warmly and took her to a table by the window.

Although this customer covered his face, there were many people dressed similarly on the street. As a waiter who had been dealing with all kinds of people for a long time, he was very discerning and did not find it surprising at all.

After sitting down, Su Mo looked at the menu on the counter. She couldn't understand any of the names, so she just said, "Give me some of their signature dishes."

"Okay! The food will be served to you right away. Please wait a moment." The waiter responded and turned to leave.

Now it's just a matter of waiting.

Su Mo took a deep breath and looked around the lobby's layout, trying to distract himself.

The store is elegantly and beautifully decorated. Although the lobby on the first floor is large, there are not many tables. Business seems to be very good. After she sat down, there were no empty seats.

Just after Su Mo looked around and thought about something for a while, the waiter came over with plates of delicious dishes and placed them in front of her one by one.

He smiled so hard that his teeth were visible. "Your dishes are ready. Please enjoy your meal."

Looking at the delicious food in front of her, Su Mo's stomach couldn't help but make a growling sound. She touched her stomach awkwardly, picked up the chopsticks, and prepared to feast on the food.

“Hiss..., uh...”

The chopsticks in her hand fell, and the sudden pain made Su Mo cover her head.

"Su Mo...Su Mo, Su Mo, Su Mo! ! "

In her sea of ​​consciousness, her own name was scrolling wildly, and she held her head, not knowing what to do.

After a while, the stinging pain subsided and Su Mo suddenly opened her eyes and woke up. She was still standing in the narrow alley just now. Where were the bustling markets and delicious food?

"Idiot! You were affected by that energy!"

"You actually fell asleep standing here. I called you for a long time!"

She rubbed her forehead, and it took her a while to connect the previous and next memories. It also took her mental energy to receive the characters sent by the small tower in her sea of ​​consciousness. The small tower's crazy screen swiping operation just now consumed a lot of her mental energy.

Fortunately, it was not wasted and she was woken up.

"What kind of energy is so overbearing that it could avoid you and let me suffer without knowing it?"

In this regard, Xiaota was helpless. "I have never come into contact with that kind of energy before, and I can't detect the energy properties."

'But now you know something, you don't have to worry about falling asleep for no reason again.'

Su Mo was still terrified. "How long have I been standing here?"

'One or two minutes, I'm very fast!'

When Xiaota noticed that Su Mo's mental power suddenly fluctuated abnormally and she was standing there stupidly, she realized the problem and immediately tried to find a way to wake her up.

Su Mo frowned slightly and said, "A while... I must be dreaming. I've been shopping and going to restaurants, so it'll take me an hour or so."

I almost ate the food in that restaurant... Now that I think about it, I don't know if the food was just an illusion or something weird.

'What did you see?'

"Alas, a prosperous city may be what this city looked like before... I'm not sure."

"You're not in danger?"

"Well... I didn't see any danger, so I just walked around the street for a while."

Small tower'·····'

"Don't be careless just because your spiritual power core is a little stronger than those people on Blue Star. There are many spiritual attack methods in the secret realm. We don't know what is outputting this energy yet, so you'd better be cautious."

Su Mo nodded humbly to accept the instruction.

Then she frowned again. "This city looks quite large. I wonder if Jiang Li and the others will get in here by mistake. They definitely can't resist the effects of that energy."

Su Mo was right to worry.

Jiang Li and his crew encountered two waves of bugs during the hours they were looking for an exit. Not only did the fifteen bugs exhaust the ignition tools they carried, but three of the five men who were weaker in strength also suffered varying degrees of injuries.

Fortunately, the package prepared for them by the Operations Department contained several antidotes, one of which was barely effective and saved the lives of the three people, but they were left with a lot of scars.

But dealing with the two waves of bugs was not the end. Not long after they rested, they encountered the third wave.

Now the only option is to escape.

As they were running, someone saw a city in the distance. The insects were chasing them closely. The group thought that they could hide in the houses if they went into the city, so they rushed towards the city without much hesitation.

A magical thing happened. When they arrived at the city gate, they found that the insects were no longer chasing them... However, the swarm of insects did not disperse. They gathered anxiously and lingered at a certain distance.

"Is there something in this city that they are afraid of?" Someone immediately spotted the problem.

The city gate was tall and wide, and five people standing at the edge of the gate could see some of the buildings in the city.

"Master, Captain Jiang, should we just wait here for the bugs to disperse, or..."

"This city is in the desert. With the high temperatures before, I'm afraid..."

Needless to say, everyone had their own guess: there might be no one left alive in the city.

Long Tao looked at the bugs outside who were unwilling to give up their prey, and then looked at the fatigue on everyone's face, and said to Jiang Li, "Captain Jiang, why don't we find a house near the city gate to rest for a while? We have been tense for too long."

Jiang Li felt okay and she could still hold on, but the others were really tired and still injured.

Although we are not sure what is in the city, the protective shield still has some energy. If they really encounter a situation that they cannot resist, they can at least protect them from leaving the city.

Jiang Li nodded and said, "Okay, let's find a place to rest nearby. Don't disperse after entering the city."

Leaving behind a few unwilling bugs, Jiang Li led the team into the city.

Su Mo walked alone on the empty streets. She had a similar experience a few months ago.

There were two souls in the city last time, what could be in this city?

Now she is a cultivator after all, so she is not afraid of such a scary scene.

She had just figured out the location where she fell into the city. It was near the corner of the city wall, very close to the wall, just a few streets away.

She walked around the area and didn't find anything special.

Just by exploring a corner of the city, you can already feel that this city probably covers a very large area.

Su Mo simply picked a direction and started walking along the streets inside the city wall. She planned to circle around and search the entire city from the outside to the inside.

Walking along the city wall would at least allow her to determine where the city gate was, which would also help her determine a general direction.

The main gate of Suzhou City is basically located in the east.
