Chapter 380 Escape
The Libra star can tell the difference between good and evil in other people's attitudes toward you, but you cannot be too trusting. People's hearts are changeable and different from dead things.
You must always pay attention to this!
But...
Dijiabao,
There is really a problem!
Zhou Jia's breathing quickened slightly, then returned to normal.
His expression remained unchanged, he walked around the market as usual, bought some sundries, and did not return to the inn until evening.
In the backyard of the inn, various auras envelope each courtyard, isolating the inside and outside.
When Zhou Jia walked into one of them, his expression relaxed, his tense mood relaxed, and a layer of cold sweat appeared on his back.
"Brother Zhou!"
"Mr. Zhou!"
Miao Qian and Li Baoxin were already waiting here.
"How was it?"
Miao Qian stood up and asked, his eyes fixed on Zhou Jia's expression changes.
Zhou Jia waved his hand and spoke the truth:
"Forbidden!"
As soon as the sound fell, a layer of spiritual light emerged out of thin air, covering the area several feet where the three of them were, completely blocking out possible prying eyes from the outside world.
Seeing this, Miao Qian's complexion couldn't help but change.
Zhou Jia's ears trembled slightly and he asked at the same time:
"What's going on over there?"
The two looked at each other and Li Baoxin said:
"We made inquiries and found out that Di Hu is not in Dijiapu. He went on a mission two months ago and has never come back."
"Mr. Zhou?"
Zhou Jia took a deep breath and said slowly:
"Di Fu has a problem."
"Ah!"
Their expressions changed drastically.
They didn't know how Zhou Jia came to the conclusion, but after more than ten years of working together, the two of them immediately chose to believe it.
"How could it be?"
Li Baoxin turned pale and looked panicked:
"The Di family has been sitting in Dijia Fort for hundreds of years, fighting against the Dark Mother Queen to get to where they are today. How could they choose...to betray?"
"I just said don't come back."
Miao Qian's eyes were full of annoyance:
"What now?"
Although he regrets, he knows that now is not the time to complain. Blind regret will only affect his mood and is not conducive to decision-making.
"Let's go!" Li Baoxin clenched his fists:
"Let's leave Dijiabao first."
"No!"
Miao Qian and Zhou Jia stopped him at the same time.
"We left right after we came back. At this time, it will definitely attract the attention of interested people." Miao Qian shook his head repeatedly.
"Not bad." Zhou Jia nodded:
"And Dimi may have doubts. Someone has been following me along the way. I can't escape now."
"Then..." Li Baoxin rolled his eyes:
"Expose them directly?"
"No way." Miao Qian shook his head again:
"The Di family has been running Dijia Fort for hundreds of years, and their formations can cover thousands of miles around with all their strength. Here Di Fu can even resist gold for a short time."
"Expose them now, not to mention that we don't have evidence in our hands. Even if we do, it will only drag more people to die together."
"What should we do?" Li Baoxin stamped his feet:
"Isn't it possible to wait for death?"
Although he is young, he has experienced too few things after all, especially now that it is a matter of life and death. A slight negligence may lead to death on the spot. It is inevitable that he will lose control of his emotions and be at a loss for a while.
"Don't get excited." Zhou Jia said slowly:
"Currently no one knows that we killed Di Hu. As long as the Di family does not confirm that they have been exposed, they will not take action rashly."
"We have been in and out of Dijiapu many times over the years without incident. This time we will just pretend that nothing happened and no one will target us."
"Not bad." Miao Gan nodded:
"As long as we keep things as normal, we'll be fine."
Li Baoxin took a deep breath and slowly suppressed his restless mood:
"I'm just afraid... things will change."
"Don't worry." Zhou Jia's eyes were cold:
"As soon as we get the chance, we'll leave."
"Speaking of opportunities." Miao Qian's expression changed slightly:
"The caravan next door will be leaving Dijiapu at noon tomorrow."
Um?
The three of them looked at each other and saw the movement in each other's eyes.

The next day.
It's getting dark.
Kangcheng Baiyin walked to Li Baoxin's residence, waved and knocked on the courtyard door:
"Master Li."
"Bian came to visit!"
The voice fell, and there was no response from the hospital.
"Well..."
Bian Li frowned slightly:
"What's going on? Mr. Li is not at home?"
"Crunch..."
Not far away, the courtyard door opened and Zhou Jia stepped out. Seeing this, he asked:
"Brother Bian, is something wrong?"
"Brother Zhou."
Bian Li tilted his head and said with a smile:
"A few friends and I held a spiritual banquet at Dengxian Garden. I would like to invite three of us to come and have a chat. Would Brother Zhou be interested?"
"Oh!"
Zhou Jia’s eyes moved slightly:
"Unfortunately, Brother Miao and Li Baoxin have just left home not long ago. If they don't mind, Zhou would like to join in the fun."
"That's better!" Bian Li's eyes lit up:
"It's Bian's blessing to be able to invite Brother Zhou. Let's go... let's go... Brother Di Long is hosting a banquet this time. He said he must invite one of the three to come."
"Di Long?" Zhou Jia said thoughtfully:
"It turned out to be Manager Di. It happened that Zhou had some questions about spiritual practice and wanted to ask for advice."
"Haha..." Bian Li laughed:
"Brother Zhou's character is indeed as rumored. He is addicted to martial arts and becomes crazy. I admire him."
He originally planned to invite Li Baoxin here, but he had no hope for Zhou Jia and Miao Qian. Now he can invite Zhou Jia to do business.
I don’t know.
Why did Manager Di have to invite these three people?
Dengxian Garden is located in a secluded place and only entertains distinguished guests. When Zhou Jia and two others arrived, the banquet had not officially started yet.
"Brother Qi!"
"Brother Zhou!"
"Guard Di."
Zhou Jia cupped his fists and raised his hands, seeing them one by one, and finally raised his hands to signal the first man with a majestic face.
Dillon.
A fifth-level silver level expert.
"Yeah."
Looking at Zhou Jia, Di Long's eyes flashed and he nodded slowly:
"Brother Zhou is a rare guest, please sit down."
"Yes."
Zhou Jia found a place to open the door and sat down, holding his hands towards the other party:
"Speaking of which, yesterday Zhou got a body skill from Master Di. I heard that Master Di had also practiced it, and I was thinking about when to visit."
"Today, we are destined to meet."
"But the ghost body?" Di Long cracked his lips and smiled stiffly:
"Di Mou also heard from the master. No wonder Brother Zhou is willing to come to the banquet. It turns out that he is waiting here. He is so sincere in martial arts."
"If Brother Zhou hadn't lived so long, he would have had a bright future."
"Excuse me." Zhou Jia smiled lightly:
"Zhou has no other hobbies, except for martial arts and source techniques."
"Yeah."
Di Long nodded obediently:
"But during today's banquet, we won't talk about cultivation or major events. We just want to have fun. We can talk about ghost bodies later when we have time."
"This..."
Zhou Jia hesitated for a moment and then said:
"That's fine."
Everyone laughed loudly, and as the spirit wine and fresh fruits were served, and the beautiful singers and dancers performed, the atmosphere in the venue gradually became warm.
…………
city gate.
"Search carefully!"
"Yes."
A caravan stopped at the city gate and was carefully searched by guards.
a long time.
The city guard general weighed the heavy money bag in his hand, and then waved with satisfaction:
"Let's go!"
"Crunch... Crunch..."
The car ruts turned, and the caravan gradually left Dijiapu along the road.
in the crowd.
Li Baoxin rolled his eyes and let out a soft breath:
"Finally out!"
Although he was not favored by the Li family, he was still a young master from a wealthy family, and he had never experienced the days of being mixed up in a mortal caravan.
What’s more, I didn’t expect that it would take so long to transport just a few dozen trucks of goods. It took half a day to count the materials, load the goods, and set off.
Until now.
Only then did he follow the caravan out of Dijiabao.
"Brother Zhou." Miao Qian looked at Zhou Jia, who was silent and said:
"How's the situation inside?"
"My clone can't last long." Zhou Jia opened his eyes, his face haggard:
"The further the distance, the shorter the time to persist. It won't be long before someone sees the flaw, and Di Mi is indeed suspicious."
"That's Di Mi, a wise man." Miao Qian sighed:
"Thankfully Brother Zhou's lightning clone is so perfect, otherwise we wouldn't even be able to leave the city."
Two brothers from the Di family.
Di Fu's strength is unpredictable and decisive.
Although Di Mi's cultivation level is only at the sixth level, he is thoughtful and careful in his actions. He handles all the affairs of the Di family, large and small.
He must have known that Di Hu was dead.
Just because Zhou Jia mentioned Di Hu's name in an insinuating way, he became suspicious, and even let Di Long focus on the three of them.
Good thing.
They would never have thought that Zhou Jia's thunder clone could be so real!
"Let's go!"
Li Baoxin took out the hidden treasure robe, took out the flying boat, enlarged the treasure robe to cover the flying boat and the three of them, and quietly left the caravan.
Then he went straight to Luanluo City.
…………
Dengxianyuan.
Zhou Jia sat on the low stool with an expressionless expression, looked at the drink in front of him, turned sideways and said to Bian Li:
"Brother Bian, I'm going to go to the backyard and walk... around."
When the word 'turn' came out, his expression suddenly changed, and his hands blurred suddenly, as if a part of a painting had been erased by life.
It's like a program error or a bug.
Fortunately, most of the other people at this time were drunk and laughing. Bian Li didn't even notice and just waved his hand:
"Brother Zhou is free."
"Okay."
Zhou Jia nodded, his expression became stiffer, he stood up and cupped his hands towards the others, as if he didn't like the atmosphere here and stretched his muscles.
Then walked slowly to the backyard.
Di Long, who was sitting in the main seat, squinted his eyes and looked at Zhou Jia's back, and then his attention was drawn back by the invitations from others to drink.
The master just asked himself to pay attention to the three of them. Now that they are still there, there is no need to pay more attention to them.
Others don't even care.
During the banquet, Zhou Jia hardly spoke. When he did, he talked about spiritual issues, treating the place of fun as a debate room.
This kind of person is not lovable in the first place, and it would be better if he left.
After three rounds of drinking.
Dillon leaned back, burped, and let the two girls rub his shoulders with their slender fingers, feeling relaxed.
Scanning the entire audience, one could see how drunk they were.
Um?
Why is there one person missing?
The too strong spiritual wine made him think for a moment before he came back to his senses.
It's Zhou Jia.
He hasn't come back yet?
Frowning slightly, Di Long stretched out his hand to gently soften his brows, expanded his spiritual mind, and brought the entire Dengxian Garden into his perception with the help of Dijiabao's formation.
No!
Well...
Dillon slowly sat up straight and frowned.
After thinking for a while, he whispered a few words, and a person outside the window immediately used his movement skills and ran towards the inn where Zhou Jia and the others were.
Soon after.
Di Long suddenly stood up from his seat, his expression changed drastically.
"No one?"
"How could there be no one!"
…………
Inn.
The houses of Zhou Jia and the others were empty.
A stream of light flashed, and Di Fu and Di Mi appeared in the room.
"Everything is packed away."
Di Mi took a step forward and picked up a magic talisman from the bed, with a gloomy expression:
"Illusion Talisman, use this thing to deal with the store, and use the thunder clone to delay time. They are afraid that they have discovered something, and they have been prepared for it."
"It hasn't been long yet." Di Fu lowered his eyes:
"I'll chase you."
"You are optimistic about this place."
The sound fell, and before Di Mi could speak, his figure had disappeared from the scene. (End of chapter)
