In the afternoon of the same day. Zhaojiazhuang, seven hundred miles from Shandong Province, Zijun.

Shi An was the third person received by Zhaojiazhuang Dibao this month to inquire about Zhao An's situation.

As soon as he saw Shi An, he felt very familiar, but he didn't remember for a moment that he had asked him about the foundation building monks in the village as early as a year ago.

Still using the mind probing technique, Shi An didn't have much effort to figure out the origin of the two groups of people who came in front of him and the content of the inquiry: those two groups of people were from Wuluobao, and the content of the inquiry was the situation after Zhao An left the village eight years ago, and the land guard only said that he had occasionally seen him in Kaiyuan City and did not say anything else.

"The two groups of people are still from Wuluobao? One group must have been sent by Sun Lang, but who are the other groups? Ignore these things for now, what is important is to design the seven-year whereabouts before the outer gate, and also create the possibility that Sun Lang has seen me, so Kaiyuan City has to run again. ”

Thinking of this, Shi An then used the Phantom God Net to make Di Bao forget the memories of his first and this interrogation, and at the same time replaced his current face with the original appearance of Zhao An left in Ji Bao's mind, in case others use his portrait to ask.

Three hours later. Inside Kaiyuan City.

Shi An had just come out of a refining shop, this was the third small refining shop he had found today, there were a total of four foundation building monks in the shop, including the shopkeeper, he was not sure that he would use the Phantom God Network to change all their memories, so he didn't dare to start, but planned to continue to look for a small refining shop with fewer foundation building monks.

As soon as he went out, he suddenly felt a movement in his heart, as if something was pulling his mind, and when he raised his eyes, he found that more than ten zhang away from him, a Qi refining cultivator dressed as a guy was walking in a hurry, walking towards the distance.

He immediately mobilized his divine sense to investigate, and found that the guy was carrying an object in his arms, and it was also a jade-like item that was missing two-thirds, which seemed to be the same as the one placed in the Cave Stone.

"Why does he have a piece there, and it is so similar to mine, wait for me to come and inquire about it. ”

Having made up his mind, he used his divine sense to firmly lock on to the person who had gone farther and farther, and then followed quickly.

didn't take two steps, a middle-aged man with a steel knife next to him followed, seeing that the breath should be above the cultivation in the early stage of foundation building, his face was evil, and he hit Shi An's back with a terrible face.

But the man didn't stop, only turned around and scolded: "Boy, don't have long eyes?

Shi An knew that he was a bastard, so he ignored it and continued to follow the guy.

After a short time, his mind had already discovered that the man was so frightened that he ran away when he saw the Hun man running behind him, and took advantage of the night to hide in a dark alley, and disappeared, while the Hun man behind him caught up with him in only a few steps.

Standing in front of the guy, the big man snorted and sneered: "You are running, I will see where you can run today?"

The guy was stopped but calmed down and said, "The surname is Niu, isn't it just for this thing that you killed my father? Lao Tzu will not let you get your wish even if he breaks it!" After speaking, he took out the jade Huang from his arms and threw it to the ground.

Shi An, who had already arrived at the mouth of the alley, hurriedly mobilized the divine consciousness that had been clinging to the guy to wrap this thing, and he hurried over.

Seeing that the mutilated Yu Huang did not fall to the ground in response, but half floating in the air, the guy and the big man surnamed Niu were all the same, and saw Shi An coming quickly, he knew that this person must have done something wrong, so they both glared at Shi An, and the guy grabbed the thing in the air with one hand, Shi An did not snatch it, let him take it.

After chasing after him in a few steps, Shi An ignored the big man surnamed Niu, and asked the guy directly: "Brother, where did you get that object, and why did this person chase you?"

Before the man could speak, the big man surnamed Niu opened his mouth and scolded: "Where did you come from, how far and how far you roll, you don't care about Lao Tzu's affairs." ”

When the man saw that it was a monk who had built a foundation, and he looked kind, he said, "This senior, this thing is my family heirloom, and there is nothing special about it, because my family is poor, my father took it to the pawnshop the day before yesterday, and he was not going to sell it because the price was not negotiated." This surnamed Niu was originally a gangster in Kaiyuan City, who had been domineering for a long time, and he had to buy it when he saw it, and the price was lower than that of the pawnshop. When my father would not obey, he robbed him and wounded them in the street, and when my father came home, he died. This evening, I took advantage of the fact that there was no one at his house, so I secretly retrieved it, not wanting this guy to be stuck here. ”

"Is that true?" Shi An asked, turning to the big man.

"In the early days of the little foundation building, the kid also dared to meddle in things? I see that you also have a storage bag, did you send something? To tell you honestly, Lao Tzu is a mid-stage cultivator, not only to grab things, but also to destroy the two of you!" With that, with a wave of the steel knife in his hand, a huge fire blade rolled towards the two.

Shi An did not sacrifice his magic weapon, but raised his left hand slightly, and a water shield blocked in front of the fire blade, and chuckled: "Do you think I can't defeat you in the early stage of foundation building?"

Having said that, Shi An didn't dare to slack off, and without waiting for the water shield to be consumed, he directly shot four golden blades to attack the left side of the man, four rockets to attack the opponent's right side, and a wooden vine to wrap around his lower body, and quietly sacrificed the sharp dagger.

"How many spiritual root cultivators are you?" When the big man surnamed Niu saw Shi An's various attribute spells, he was stunned, and shouted while dodging: "Uncle spare your life, uncle spare your life, villain ......"

Shi An did not shy away from exposing his multi-spiritual roots in front of a dying person, under the dazzling spell, the deadly dagger also quietly stabbed into the opponent's chest, and then all the spells also hit the person, with the unfinished words, the big man surnamed Niu has returned to the world.

Shi An didn't care about the transparent soul that flew out of the corpse, and let it enter the reincarnation, because he was worried about attracting the city patrol guards, so after rolling through the person's storage bag with his divine sense, he immediately shot out a fireball, and the corpse was wiped out in an instant.

The young man was stunned by the side, and the battle between the two foundation masters seemed to be over before it began.

He fell to his knees with a thud and asked tremblingly, "Thank you seniors for killing Niu Er for me, and also remove a harm for us low-level cultivators." You...... You've also taken a fancy to that artifact in my house, so if you like it, take it. ”

Shi An didn't answer, picked up the guy, and looked at the storage bag with his divine sense, there was nothing special in it except for three middle-grade spirit stones and more than a hundred low-grade spirit stones.

So he put the steel knife on the ground into it, handed it to him, and said, "I killed him to avenge your father, and I will take care of the affairs of this city lord for him, and this man's storage bag for you is regarded as a reward for your misfortune." As for your object, I'd like to see it. ”

The young man hurriedly handed over the broken jade and said, "This thing is useless in my hands, so I might as well give you as a reward." ”

Shi An was not polite, took Yu Huang, the feeling of heart-to-heart connection was even stronger, and without looking at it, he directly put it into the second mountain room of the Dongtian Stone, and asked, "Little brother, how many spirit stones did your father want to pawn this thing at that time?"

"Twenty lower-grade spirit stones. The young man said this with a red face for a long time, and he also felt that his father's asking price was a bit high.

"You deserve to be too cheap, this piece of jade is still of great use to me, I bought it. As he spoke, he handed the man five medium-grade spirit stones.

The young man hurriedly knelt down and said, "Senior, the villain's name is Wan Feng, you have already given me Niu Er's storage bag, how dare I ask for your spirit stone again?"

Shi An helped him again: "Wan Feng, you don't have to be polite, give it to you, you can take it." There are still some things that I need you to answer for me. ”

"Just ask, and I'll tell you what I know. Wan Feng got so many spirit stones, and said with joy in his heart.

"Since Yuhuang fell into the hands of Niu Er, how could you steal it?"

"If that bastard puts Jade Huang in a storage bag, he won't be able to give me 10,000 skills. Since last night, I have been guarding outside his door, but it happened that in the evening he went out to do something, so I picked the door and locked it in, only to see that this thing was placed on a plate like a formation on the table, and there were a lot of ritual items on the table, I thought that he might be going to do some ritual things, so I took the things and ran out. ”

"Priest?" Shi An couldn't help but pause with interest when he heard this, "If it's convenient for you, can you take me to see it later?"

"Convenient and convenient. Then you come with me now?" Wan Feng replied busily.

"I'm not busy, I still have some things to ask. Can you tell me what major events have happened in Kaiyuan City in the last seven or eight years?"

"Is it a big deal?" I want to think about it...... There are really a few. The first thing, eight years ago, Kaiyuan City held a refiner competition, which is said to be held once every hundred years, and it was unprecedented, with about thousands of people participating in the event, but we ordinary people didn't pay much attention to it, and we knew that the top three were directly accepted by Wu Luobao as outer disciples. ”

"The second major event is about two years ago, Wu Luobao sent people to Kaiyuan City to arrest a monk, searched in the city for three days, and finally caught him in a small inn called 'Four Seas' in the corner of the city. Although this person was a woman in the early stage of foundation building, she was skilled in spells, killed and injured many Wu Luobao disciples, and was finally captured by the head of the hall. At that time, there were many onlookers at the scene of the arrest, and later many people were called by the hall master to give a lecture, and they were not allowed to add fuel to this matter, let alone spread rumors, if it wasn't for the fact that you avenged me today, I wouldn't dare to tell you. ”

"Wait, you were there at the time, and you were also reprimanded?"

"Well, I lived nearby, and when I heard the sound of fighting, I ran out to see the excitement, and finally I was reprimanded by the Law Enforcement Hall. ”

The Law Enforcement Hall came to arrest Shi Anxin moved, and said, "Then you tell me about this matter carefully from beginning to end." ”
