As he spoke, he scanned the field.
"That's right." Zhou Jia bowed:
"The manager of the inn is missing. Leader Ren suspects that the murderer is hiding among us, so he intends to take him back and investigate carefully."
"Treasurer Qingfengju." Mrs. Wang covered her mouth and smiled softly, her smile was like a flower:
"He disappeared, what does it have to do with you? How can you, a mere fifth-rank man, be able to move a person who has achieved this position."
"You say so, Chief Ren?"
"What Mrs. Wang said is true." Chief Ren bowed his head.
Facing this charming and beautiful lady, he subconsciously took two steps back, as if he was extremely afraid, and even his voice was a little weaker.
Without waiting for the other party to speak, he said directly:
"This brother Zhou is fine, you can leave."
"And those three girls." Mrs. Wang nodded, then stretched out her hand and pointed at the three girls who deliberately approached Zhou Jia, and said with a smile:
"A few girls, what can you do?"
"Yes, yes." Chief Ren answered yes again and again.
"That's right." Mrs. Wang nodded, and was about to put down the car curtain when she looked at Zhou Jia again:
"It's not very peaceful in the society recently. Don't stay in the inner city all the time. It's time to go back and have a look. After all, you are also a member of the Fish and Dragon Society."
"Yes." Zhou Jia should say:
"My subordinate understands."
"Ah."
The curtain of the carriage was lowered, and the carriage drifted away with the fragrance.
To her, this scene was nothing more than a trivial matter, but to Zhou Jia, it was undoubtedly a big sigh of relief.
……
Back in the guest room, the sisters from the Jiao family had already thanked her and left, and the room became his own residence again, with a wider space.
"go out?"
Zhou Jia touched the wound on his chest, and shook his head lightly:
"Why don't we wait until the injury recovers."
A mere deputy director of a mine, a person with a few origin stones a month, I believe that with the stature of the third elder, he doesn't pay much attention to it.
If you go back a few days late, you won't be discovered.
But after the battle with shopkeeper Xue, he understood his own shortcomings even more.
Different from others, most of his cultivation base was brought up by Yuan Xing, he lacks fighting experience, and his martial skills are relatively loose.
Inciting violence, the strength is comparable to the eighth rank, but facing the sixth rank shopkeeper Xue, he almost died.
Empty strength, but no skills!
As for the other party's weird methods...
No one can guarantee that other people will not have it. This time the encounter is solved by luck, so can it be depended on luck every time?
Martial arts, don't relax!
Taking a deep breath, suppressing the pain in the chest and abdomen, Zhou Jia picked up the ax and shield, and slowly practiced in the room.
The shield has been completed, but the proficiency has not reached the limit, so I don't know if there will be other changes after the limit is completed.
If not.
Even if the shield is perfect, its usefulness is extremely limited.
And the wind chopping axe...
The martial arts on his body are too low-grade compared to the Death-Slaying Sword, and they can only be effective in the face of masters if they reach a higher level.
Whether compared with Cao Honglai or Shopkeeper Xue, Zhou Jia's martial arts are too loose.
Time passes slowly.
In the blink of an eye, another month has passed.
In this month, Zhou Jia didn't encounter any other troubles other than the rent renewal fee, and the chaos in the outer city seemed to subside a lot.
Name: Zhou Jia
Cultivation level: mortal rank six (1231/8000)
Origin Star: Tianyingxing (Trait: Soldier), Earth Star (Trait: Violence)
Gongfa: Introduction to Three-Yuan Zhengfa (120/300)
武技:盾反圆满(367/1000)、盾击精通(42/500)、劈风斧法熟练(573/600)、纳尔秘息术入门(41/200)、夺命剑熟练(79/1000)
The cultivation base has not changed much, but the martial arts have been greatly improved. The shield strike is advanced and proficient, the ax technique is about to break through, and the life-killing sword has greatly increased its proficiency due to regular practice.
If he meets shopkeeper Xue again, he is confident that he will never be so dangerous.
After checking his things, Zhou Jia walked out of the room.
Time to go back!
Chapter 033
Walking out of the inner city, the atmosphere suddenly changed.
The market was still bustling with people coming and going, but every few steps you could see people like Huo Mansion patrolling the crowd.
At the slightest sign of trouble, they held down the weapons at their waists.
Walking in the market, you can clearly feel the stares like needles, which are warnings not to make trouble here.
Zhou Jia didn't linger too long, just asked about the price of the recent food, then headed down towards his tree house.
'The price of japonica rice doubled again. '
'According to the theory of earth economics, doubling the price of ordinary things will make half of the people who can afford it unaffordable. '
'And doubling the price of food will make half of the people unable to eat, and even...'
'starve! '
'It seems that the number of outsiders entering Huojiabao this time is so large that the food output here is far from being able to provide. '
'It's no wonder that the people in the market are so nervous. If they don't have anything to eat, they will drive them to a dead end. '
'Plus some people are secretly contributing to the flames, no wonder it is so chaotic! '
"Crack..."
The abnormal noise under his feet stopped Zhou Jia. He raised his foot and pushed the leaves on the ground. Two pieces of shattered white bones came into view, as well as the dirty blood that couldn't be washed away.
Frowning slightly, he casually flipped through the fallen leaves nearby.
White bones, blood stains, meat residue...
Under the thick fallen leaves, there are all these things. The bloody smell has not completely dissipated, and it can be vaguely discerned that the fierce fighting was once.
This is the main road!
In the inner city, I just heard that the outer city is in chaos recently.
In order to suppress the chaos, the Huo Mansion recruited experts from various families and forces, and worked hard for more than half a month before it was considered to have improved.
However, the details of how to disrupt the law are just rumors, but I have never seen it with my own eyes. There are occasional chaos in the inner city, and it doesn't take long for it to calm down.
The traces in front of him can explain a thing or two.
Depending on the situation, on this main road, more than a hundred people were killed, and the blood almost stained the nearby ground.
Elsewhere, you can imagine.
Back to the tree house, as expected, the place has been turned upside down, even the inner room was not spared, fortunately it was not occupied.
Putting the package on the bed, Zhou Jia sighed softly.
The familiar room didn't bring him much sense of security. Just looking at the traces in the room, he knew how many waves of people had come during this period.
The trap outside the door needs to be arranged again.
Ok……
To strengthen!
"Brother Zhou."
A hoarse voice sounded from outside the door:
"You're back."
"Brother Angie." Zhou Jia stood up and looked at his neighbor Angie, who was lame, had rotten teeth, and smelled bad, but often showed enthusiasm:
"How's your time?"
"Hey!" Angie smiled wryly:
"Survival depends entirely on fate. It's better for you to hide in the inner city."
"You can do it too." Zhou Jia shrugged.
"I would like to." Angie sighed:
"But when I enter the city, the ancestors I want to take with me are more expensive than me. How can I have so much money in my pocket?"
In this regard, Zhou Jia said that he was helpless.
The other party was originally rich, but they all entered the bottomless pit of the casino.
"But I'm also a blessing in disguise." After sighing, Angie smiled:
"During this period of time, the people who died in the outer city couldn't be caught. With a few animals, they picked up a lot of things and got a lot of money."
"I think, now is the time when my luck is the best!"
Zhou Jia knew what the other party was going to say.
as predicted.
"Wait a minute, I'll go to Liuren Hall to kill the Quartet, Brother Zhou, do you want to go together?"
"No."
Zhou Jia shook his head:
"I can't play with those things."
"It's a pity!" Angie looked regretful, as if Zhou Jia had missed the most wonderful thing in the world.
"By the way, someone was looking for you two days ago. It seems to be someone from the mine. The person is in a hurry, and I want you to go to the mine quickly."
"Really?" Zhou Jia nodded:
"I see."
……
The mine was the same as before, and it seemed that it had not been affected by the chaos during this period, but the people in charge of patrolling looked tense.
Zhou Jia's arrival stunned Andrew, and subconsciously said:
"You're not dead?"
"What?" Zhou Jia's face darkened:
"I don't look like a living person."
"No." Andrew shook his head first, and then seemed to think of something, with anger appearing on his face, he asked loudly:
"Since you are still alive, why don't you come to the mine during this time?"
"do you know……"
"Snapped!"
