Beiyin Great Sage
Chapter 93 Searching for someone
With so many things, it is naturally impossible to put them all in the tree house.
Not safe.
Moreover, the current conflict between the second elder and the third elder seems to be difficult to end in a short time, and Zhou Jia's residence has also been exposed.
It would be even worse if someone came looking for it secretly and found something.
Fortunately.
He put Dong XZ near the black forest.
Heilin, which has the characteristics of Tingfeng of the Earthly Star, is extremely dangerous to others, but for Zhou Jia, it is a treasure trove of hiding places.
inner city.
A series of simple houses have appeared among the ruins.
Whether the house can be sheltered from the wind is still a matter of debate, but at least it gives others the impression that this place is owned by someone.
more.
It is similar to a scavenger.
Look for useful things from ruins and garbage dumps.
Nowadays, Huojiabao has become a land without an owner. The major forces are surging with undercurrents. No one is in charge of repairing the city wall, and the inner city is becoming more and more desolate.
Fights between various scavengers can be seen everywhere.
On the contrary, the outer city is much safer.
"Click..."
Broken wood pieces made a crisp sound underfoot.
Zhou Jia came here again, looking at the broken walls in front of him and the numerous bones in between, his eyes showing loneliness.
There were not many people in Huojiabao who cared about him.
Chen Hui is among them.
The lively and cheerful old classmates, as well as the shy and innocent Lu Rong, all helped him without hesitation when he was in need.
"This brother!"
Stopping a nearby man, Zhou Jia raised his hands and said:
"Have you ever seen the two women who used to live in this house?"
"They are in their early twenties and dressed up..."
"I've never seen it before!" The man's eyes were wary, he held the handle of the knife at his waist with one hand and backed away cautiously:
"You should ask others, I don't know the situation here."
"Friend." Zhou Jia sighed and looked at the other person:
"You used to live nearby, right?"
"The clothes and smell on your body don't look like someone from outside the city. In just a few days, some things cannot be erased."
"You..." The man's expression changed. Now that the situation in the inner city and the outer city has reversed, as a person from the inner city, he feels even more insecure.
Then he whispered:
"I really don't know. I hid in the cellar when the beast tide came. I don't know what happened around here."
"But after the beast wave, all the people who survived in this courtyard went to Huo Mansion, but the situation in Huo Mansion was even worse on the night of the riot."
Zhou Jia’s eyebrows drooped slightly:
"Thank you."
"Yeah." As if he noticed Zhou Jia's lonely expression, the vigilance in the man's eyes dissipated slightly, and he touched his chin and suggested:
"To be honest, the women in this house don't have much cultivation, I'm afraid it's nine out of ten..."
"Of course, if you really want to find it, you can go inside and ask Miss Lawrence. She is the concubine of Neil, the steward of the Huo family."
"Oh!" Zhou Jia's eyes lit up:
"May I ask where Miss Lawrence is?"
"I only know that she is not dead." The man shook his head:
"You should know that now, whether in the inner city or the outer city, everyone is hunting down people from the Huo family. She must be hiding."
"This way..." Zhou Jia narrowed his eyes and raised his hands seriously:
"Thank you!"
He has been to the inner city several times, and this is the first time he has a clue. His gratitude comes from the bottom of his heart.
"You're welcome." The man shook his head and sighed helplessly:
"However, as long as you have the heart, you'd better not have too much hope."
"yes."
Zhou Jia nodded.
He actually knew very well that the hope of Chen Hui and the two girls surviving was extremely slim, but as long as there was a chance, they would not give up.
Several days have passed since the night of the riot.
There has been no news, and I am afraid that there is a high probability that he has been killed. This time I came to find him again, and the psychological comfort was greater than my hope.
Lawrence?
Looking in the direction of Huo Mansion, the stars in Zhou Jia's mind lit up slightly, and the characteristics of Di Mo Xing Ting Feng were already activated.
Different from the violence of Earth Meng Star.
Even if listening to the wind is not stimulated, it can still greatly increase ear power. After stimulation, the consumption of physical strength is not large.
moment.
Countless sounds flooded into my ears.
The sounds that should have been chaotic were transformed into a 'picture' through the control of Tingfeng's special characteristics, which slowly unfolded in his mind.
woman!
He has a certain level of cultivation and deliberately conceals his identity.
After locking the target, Zhou Jia moved slowly in the inner city, listening to the voices of women passing by.
…………
In ruins.
A woman with a dirty voice held an iron rod in her hand, struggled to pry open a collapsed wall, and picked out a few small things from underneath.
With a smile on his face, he wiped it on his body and threw the things into the bag behind his back.
These gadgets seemed worthless to people from outside the city, but she knew very well that some wealthy people had a preference for such things.
It can be sold at a high price.
The key is.
Find the right buyer.
"Miss Lawrence."
A gentle man's voice sounded, causing the woman's complexion to change drastically. Her body tensed up instantly, and she raised the iron rod in her hand and pointed it at the other party.
"Who are you? Did you find the wrong person?"
"Miss Lawrence, I mean no harm." Zhou Jia raised his hands in the air, showing his kindness:
"I just wanted to ask you about two people."
"I told you, I'm not Lawrence, and I don't know the person you're talking about." The woman looked panicked and waved the iron rod desperately:
"Go quickly, go quickly!"
"I really don't mean any harm." Zhou Jia had no choice but to take two steps back and took out a piece of meatloaf from his body:
"Since you are not Miss Lawrence, can you allow me to ask a few questions?"
"..." The woman's hand froze, her eyes fixed on the meat pie, her throat rolled subconsciously, and then she looked at Zhou Jia.
"What do you want to ask?"
Zhou Jia handed the meat pie over and said slowly:
"I want to get some clues about my two friends."
"Friend?" The woman was stunned, grabbed the meatloaf and stuffed it into her mouth, her throat rolling desperately, even biting her own lip:
"I didn't expect... um... in a place like this... hiccup..., there would be people who would care about their friends?"
"Eat slowly." Zhou Jia looked worried:
"I have another one here, be careful not to choke."
Choking is okay, choking to death is bad.
"Who are you looking for?" The woman swallowed the meat pie in three gulps, licked her dirt-covered fingers carefully, and tasted the faint meaty taste:
"I agreed beforehand that the meatloaf would be given to me whether I knew it or not."
"No problem." Zhou Jia took out a meat pie again and asked:
"My two friends are called Chen Hui and Lu Rong. They used to take care of Miss Qian in the outer house. I heard that they were taken into the Huo Mansion after the beast tide."
"The two of them..." The woman's eyes were in a trance, and she paused in the movement of connecting the meat pie. She hesitated for a moment, then shook her head and said:
"They were indeed taken into the Huo Mansion, but..."
"The situation in Huo Mansion that night was more chaotic than other places. Those people rushed in and killed everyone they saw, and robbed everything they saw. Together..."
"It's all chaos!"
The woman's eyes were red, and she wanted to cry, but there were no tears. She was just hoarse, holding the meat pie tightly with both hands, lowering her head and trembling slightly.
"I don't know their situation. I was in the side courtyard at the time, and they were placed in the backyard. The backyard was the last to be invaded."
"Maybe I can survive."
Zhou Jia tightened his hands, his eyes brightened, and his business could not help but tremble:
"Are you telling the truth?"
"Ha..." The woman took out a handkerchief from her arms, carefully wrapped the meat pie, carefully stuffed it into her arms, shook her head and said:
"Why am I lying to you? Although those people kill everyone they see, like crazy people, some of them should have a purpose."
"Maybe……"
"Just maybe, they might not be dead."
Her voice was low, and it was obvious that even she didn't believe it, but Zhou Jia was shocked because he finally had good news.
"how?"
At this time, a magnetic female voice sounded in the distance:
"Are you looking for someone?"
Zhou Jia turned around and saw the hotly dressed young lady from the Wu family, surrounded by people, looking this way.
"I have something else to do, let's go first." Seeing Miss Wu, the woman's face turned pale, she lowered her head hurriedly, and trotted off to another place.
"Miss Wu." Zhou Jia cupped his hands:
"meet again."
"yes!"
Miss Wu shrugged:
"I didn't expect you to be able to endure it quite well. You didn't die over and over again."
"but……"
Her beautiful eyes flashed, and she said with a half-smile:
"You are looking for someone near my house. Could you be looking for me again?"
"Is this your home?" Zhou Jia was stunned.
"Of course." Miss Wu cleaned her hair and said:
"Although it is in ruins now, the Wu family will still come back soon. Those rogue people don't know at all. To survive in this world, strength is the foundation."
"By the time……"
She narrowed her eyes, her eyes were fierce, and she gritted her teeth:
"My Wu family will remember all the people who broke into my house one by one, and I will not let anyone go!"
Zhou Jia had no objection to this.
On the night of the riot, people from the outer city did attack the inner city, resulting in the death of many people, but the background of the big family is that as long as they are not dead, they will rise sooner or later.
Without Huo Mansion, other forces will rise.
The short-term power vacuum will not be occupied by ordinary people from outside the city. Power will always belong to the strong. This is eternal.
After venting her anger, Miss Wu's beautiful eyes flashed and she looked at Zhou Jia:
"Are you looking for the two women who served Miss Qian?"
"Not bad." Zhou Jia's heart skipped a beat:
"Miss Wu knows the clues. Please tell me. Zhou will be grateful!"
"I really know." Miss Wu raised her eyebrows, looked Zhou Jia up and down, stuck out her tongue and licked the corner of her mouth, and said seductively:
"But why should I tell you?"
"What does Miss Wu want?" Zhou Jia frowned.
"I want you." Miss Wu stretched out her hand and made two gestures:
"How about you play with me for a few days, and when I get tired of playing with you, I'll tell you the whereabouts of those two maids?"
Zhou Jia looked up.
I have to say that Miss Wu's appearance is not bad, and her figure is even hotter. Probably because she has practiced double cultivation, her whole body is full of temptation to men.
Definitely a stunner.
but……
"Ms. Wu, you're kidding. If you want a man, Huojiabao has plenty of them. Who else will get the next one?"
Shaking his head slightly, Zhou Jia spoke slowly and in a calm tone:
"As for my two friends, they are not strong enough. In all likelihood, they were killed on the night of the riot. When the white-haired wind blows, I am afraid that only a few bones will be left."
"Miss Wu, why do you need to play tricks on me?"
"That's not necessarily the case." Miss Wu pouted:
"Why don't you think about it, they didn't die?"
"Wow!"
Before she could finish her words, she saw Zhou Jia turning around and walking quickly without saying a word, his face even more solemn.
not dead!
But he didn't come to find him, or even summon him.
There are not many places to go.
Damn it!
Why didn't I think of this in advance?
