An unknown deserted street.
Thick fog filled the air all around, and strange screams could be heard from time to time, making the place seem even more eerie and spooky.
"Master, do you know this place?" Qiao Yuan clasped his hands together and looked at the old monk.
"Did you come here by mistake?" The old monk was a little surprised.
Qiao Yuan nodded, revealing an innocent and ignorant expression.
"This place is called Sin City, a place where evil spirits and criminals gather!" The old monk said slowly, "Time passes very slowly here, it doesn't exist in the real world..."
Vice City is also known as the city of ghosts, the place of evil or the black market.
In short, the meaning is the same, this is a special place where no one is allowed to go.
The city lord behind the scenes is a very powerful alien spirit.
Also known as the Spirit King!
Centrally located!
But very few awakened people can see it alive.
Qiao Yuan is currently located within the third ring road, which is considered the outermost area of Sin City. There are not many alien spirits there, and their strength is around the fourth level.
To enter here, you must have a pass!
That is the piece of paper written by the King of the Otherworldly Spirits himself.
It is distributed regularly every month in the real world, and those who are destined to receive it can enter this place.
…
The alien spirits escaping from pursuit, the passers-by with nowhere to go, the adventurers seeking opportunities, and even some awakened people doing shady business...
Vice City provides such a venue!
No laws, no morals, no constraints.
Everything returns to its essence, the strong prey on the weak!
Here, you don't have to worry about being hunted down by the so-called patrolmen, nor do you have to worry about your past crimes being exposed.
It can be regarded as a temporary refuge.
Of course, precisely because of the special nature of this place, the awakened people and strange spirits attracted here are not good people.
“…”
"Amitabha, benefactor, those who enter here are not necessarily bad people, but good people will definitely not enter here. I see that you have a kind face, so it is best to return to the real world as soon as possible to avoid suffering an unprovoked disaster."
The old monk tried to persuade him again.
Buddhist chants lingered from his mouth, and invisible ripples spread out. Against the backdrop of the golden light, his appearance looked even more majestic.
Moreover, the words he spoke made people feel calm and relaxed, as if they could cleanse the soul and bring peace.
There is an inexplicable sense of conviction.
Qiao Yuan clasped his hands together and bowed with a pious look on his face.
"Master, you are so compassionate. How can I leave alone? So... Master, please come with me, and let's leave this dangerous place together."
The old monk closed his mouth while reciting the scriptures.
…
"Donor, I, the Buddha, am merciful. I will leave after I have liberated the deceased."
"Master, I have loved Buddhism since I was a child. So... you continue to pray for the dead while I listen to the Buddha's teachings."
Qiao Yuan folded his arms across his chest.
The old monk was silent for a while, then lowered his head and chanted the Buddhist scriptures again.
One minute... two minutes... ten minutes passed.
Seeing that Qiao Yuan still had no intention of leaving, the old monk frowned slightly.
“…”
Boom~
Suddenly, a strange sound was heard, which was extremely harsh in the dead silent street.
The voice stirred the thick fog, rippling out like waves, and a cold chill also spread out, making people feel very uncomfortable.
There was a sound of footsteps in the distance, as if someone was walking towards them.
Qiao Yuan frowned and looked in the direction of the sound.
An old man with wrinkles on his face like orange peel, holding a gong used by night watchmen in ancient times, walked slowly out of the thick fog with a staggering step...
"Human?"
"I'm just hungry!"
“…”
Boom!
The sharp sound of metal knocking suddenly arose, making the already dark and depressing street even more gloomy.
Just as the old night watchman's eyes flashed with green light and a hideous smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, revealing his true nature.
Suddenly, a fist fell!
The blow hit the bridge of its nose hard, and the night watchman was sent flying and fell heavily to the ground.
“Knock, knock, knock, all you know is knocking. Can’t you see the Master is performing salvation?”
"It's hard to understand why you keep quiet?" Qiao Yuan shouted, snatched the gong from the other party's hand, and twisted it into a twist!
The night watchman's spirit: "..."
"Not convinced?"
As he finished speaking, Qiao Yuan punched the other person through.
[Normal Energy +42]
“…”
…
Bang~Puh
The corpse of the night watchman was thrown in front of the old monk. Its eyes, still open after death, seemed to be silently accusing something...
The old monk ignored the terrifying eyes and looked at the young man next to him with a murderous look on his face.
Qiao Yuan bowed slightly to the old monk and said respectfully, "We are both praying for the souls of the deceased together, which makes them a perfect pair. Master, your Buddhist teachings are profound, so you shouldn't treat them differently, right?"
Old monk: “…”
The obscure Buddhist scriptures were recited from his mouth again.
Qiao Yuan retreated silently and gradually disappeared in the thick fog.
...Pfft
Everything seemed to return to calm.
Just when the old monk thought that Qiao Yuan had left, a figure appeared again in the thick fog shortly afterwards.
Qiao Yuan still had a smile on his face, looking innocent.
But he now had two more corpses in his hands.
Foul-smelling blood was flowing down the corpse's arm, clearly having died not long ago...
"Master, your Dharma is boundless. I only listened for a short while, and I felt relaxed all over, like bathing in a spring breeze..."
The old monk hesitated for a moment and interrupted Qiao Yuan: "I am chanting the mantra for rebirth."
