Cheng Han figured out the whole story and recited resolutely: "Deduce ways to deal with... no, eliminate the extraordinary power in the gold coins."
A familiar chill filled the top of his skull.
The next moment, his eyes lit up.
Cheng Han "saw" an extremely brilliant sun, emitting endless light and heat, surrounded by strange black clouds that filled the sky.
The sun suddenly expanded, bursting out endless filaments of light. Each filament of light hit the black clouds, and a little of the latter disappeared.
Just a moment later, the black cloud no longer existed.
Only the sun is high in the sky.
It seems like it lasts forever.
A prompt flashed out immediately: "Proficiency +2, current proficiency is 58/1000, and mental value is 4.3/13.4."
Cheng Han was greatly surprised: "It's really surprising. I didn't expect that the residual seal of true flame analyzed from the sun could actually restrain the extraordinary power of gold coins."
He stared at the ditch and said with a smile: "Mr. Aberrant God believer, it seems that you are not very lucky."
It's not just bad.
It's simply terrible.
Originally, the plan of this group of believers in the strange gods was going very smoothly. As long as they waited for one more day, a grand ceremony could be held in the textile factory.
It's a pity that a certain middle school student suddenly appeared and interfered.
Not only did the ritual fail, the believers suffered heavy casualties, and even the gold coins hidden so secretly were found by smell.
One word, miserable!
Cheng Han wielded a small shovel and worked hard under the ditch for a while, and soon found the gold coins.
He didn't dare to touch this strange thing with his hands, but picked it up with a shovel and threw it on the grass nearby.
This is a brand new gold coin.
Its surface is embossed with a thriving giant tree, which is the Wanhao Divine Banyan Tree.
Gold coins also contain special powers.
From the moment it was dug out, vague and strange murmurs could be heard in Cheng Han's ears, and his mood became uncontrollably impetuous.
It was previously a gibberish foreshadowing of the skill.
But now it's a real voice.
Cheng Han did not dare to delay any longer and quickly activated the true flame remnant seal. His fingertips lit up with a faint light and he stabbed the gold coin hard.
At this time, the gold coin seemed to realize that the situation was not good, and actually jumped a few times strangely.
"Buzz~"
The gold coins trembled.
The babble immediately became louder.
But this is a futile effort.
"Ding!"
Cheng Han's finger hit the gold coin accurately.
The light at the fingertips instantly became extremely bright, comparable to a hundred-watt light bulb. The surrounding air seemed to be affected by thermal radiation, and the temperature also rose.
"Ah~"
A shrill scream came from the gold coin.
After just a moment, the sound suddenly stopped.
Gold coins no longer tremble.
Cheng Han quickly conducted a deduction and breathed a sigh of relief: "The black mist group was destroyed by the residual seal."
He relaxed and then felt dizzy. When he checked his attributes again, it turned out that his mental value had dropped to an extremely low value of 0.2/13.4.
In other words, the short confrontation just now consumed 4.1 points of mental energy.
Cheng Han rubbed the center of his brows with lingering fear: "The confrontation with extraordinary power is really draining on my mental energy. My small body really can't bear it."
He happily collected the gold coins and said, "My hard work is worth it."
The monthly salary of an ordinary person is about twenty silver coins, and one gold coin is equivalent to five months' salary of an ordinary person. This is by no means small money.
Cheng Han quickly cleaned up the scene and rode away on his bicycle.

In a secret room.
In the center of the ground, a candle burned.
The flame it burns is actually a strange dark green color.
Through the light, it can be seen that the ground is paved with a flat stone floor, and a rather large pattern is carved on it, which is also a creepy picture.
This is a four-armed giant.
The place where the head should be is empty.
The two hands near the shoulders each held a head, with extremely weird smiles on their faces.
The two hands below the shoulders each held a bloody bone staff, which seemed to have just been removed from the corpse.
"Boom! Boom!"
It sounded like a cane hitting the floor, rhythmically.
A thin and tall figure, wearing a floor-length robe, slowly approached the candle.
He coughed a few times and waved his sleeve towards the candle.
"call!"
A large dark green flame emerged from the candle and condensed into an ordinary face.
The flaming man opened his mouth and spit out a cloud of sparks: "Zaku, you have failed."
The figure in Gongji responded with a sharp voice: "There is a mole among us!"
The flaming face said calmly: "Where is the evidence?"
The figure in Gongjie sneered: "This operation is weird from beginning to end. Our hidden line did not receive any news, but the official suddenly launched a strike."
The flaming face was unmoved: "This is a poor excuse."
The figure suddenly raised his tone: "Hutch's 'soul lamp' went out, which means that the 'secret soul gold coin' was discovered, and the remaining soul that escaped him was killed!"
The face of the flame changed immediately: "What?"
The figure in Gongji became even more angry: "There is no doubt about the concealment of the Secret Soul Gold Coin. If there is no tip from the insider, how can the official find it?
"The remnant soul attached to the gold coin has a very special shape. Only powerful magicians who are proficient in the soul field can detect the existence of the remnant soul.
"The soul faction is difficult to practice. There has not been a Xuanshi majoring in this faction in the Tai'an Xiaoling Realm for decades. How could the official kill Hutch if not for the betrayal by the inner ghost?"
The flaming face remained silent.
After a long time, he finally said: "I will personally investigate the people who are related to Hutch."
He added seriously: "Everyone!"
The figure snorted: "When you find out the culprit, I will use the 'Human-Faced Insect' to eat out his internal organs bit by bit."
The flaming face didn't respond and turned into smoke and disappeared.

Shanyifang.
The moment Cheng Han opened the door, he immediately heard a cat meow.
"Meow~"
The black cat squatted at the door, looking at him quietly with a pair of cat eyes.
Cheng Han said approvingly: "Not bad! You listened to what I said and didn't run around outside in the dark."
The black cat stood up, rubbed his trouser legs, ran lightly for a dozen steps, and easily jumped onto the wooden table more than one meter high.
Cheng Han followed him with his eyes and was stunned for a moment.
Because there were actually three birds placed on the wooden table.
Their size is much longer than an adult's hand, and their weight is estimated to be no less than half a catty.
This is obviously the Sheriff's trophy.
The black cat raised its paw to hold down a bird and called out again: "Meow~"
Cheng Han glanced at the black cat's belly and asked tentatively: "Sheriff, is this the dinner you brought me?"
The black cat shook its furry tail, as if to express its affirmation.
Cheng Han's mouth twitched.
He suddenly realized that the black cat seemed to be trying to feed itself.
*
More than half an hour later.
Dinner is cooked.
Cheng Han picked up a bird leg, took a bite, and immediately nodded.
The meat is firm, chewy and tastes pretty good!
He suddenly felt that adopting this black cat was indeed a wise decision.
At least you can eat meat without spending money, right?
The black cat squatted not far away, watching him eat, and flicked its tail again.
After Cheng Han finished eating, he put away the dishes and chopsticks and said, "I'll take a rest for a while. You just stay in the living room and don't make too much noise. Do you understand?"
"Meow~"
The black cat responded and got under the cabinet.
