Chapter 17 Why are you so weak?
In a private housing complex in Qingshan District, after Zhou Ji found out that Jia Guizhi and Zhao Jianglong lived in a corner room on the second floor, he did not rush upstairs, but stopped at the entrance of the stairs.
Quietly looking at the person waiting for him in the cave.
Fortunately, out of caution, Zhou Ji did not bring the Demon-Conquering Thunder Sword with him, but simply crossed his backpack diagonally, looked at Shan Zhigang with interest, and said calmly: "I didn't expect you to catch up here.
, is it possible that you still want to fight me in a residential area?"
Shan Zhigang frowned. He had been guarding Zhou Ji here for nearly two days. Unexpectedly, the other party had been holding back until now. He slightly closed his right hand, the jade fell into his palm, raised his palm and pushed towards Zhou Ji.
Zhou Ji retreated, but felt that the air around him seemed to have solidified, and the loss of his true energy was several times greater than usual. Just taking three steps back had already consumed most of his energy, but he was also in danger.
Narrowly dodged Shan Zhigang's attack.
"Evil magic? Evil magic?" Zhou Ji mocked. From the palm just now, he felt that the other party's special abilities were all generated by the jade in his hand. Its own strength and speed were not much different from ordinary people.
Jade, any two adults can knock him down.
Shan Zhigang did not want to argue with Zhou Ji, but instead took his fingerprints and drew a talisman in the void, which was about to be imprinted on the surface of the jade.
Zhou Ji was shocked. He didn't want to be a self-confident monster who allowed his opponent to perform.
When he saw Shan Zhigang's seal, he leaned forward, used spiral energy to break through the blockade, and raised his hand to grab Shan Zhigang's wrist. At this time, Shan Zhigang's fingerprints had already formed, but he was pressing on the front of the jade stone.
For a moment, he was captured and controlled by Zhou Ji. From his elbow to the palm of his hand, his muscles felt numb and painful. Then, the fingerprints pinched out by his left hand also collapsed, and half of his body felt a little sore and numb.
That's it?
Zhou Ji didn't expect the other party to be so weak. He raised his finger to point at Shan Zhigang's acupoint, only to find that the internal force penetrating through his fingertips was instantly dissipated by another unparalleled majestic true energy, and even he himself was rebounded out.
, took two steps back before standing still.
No, it's not that he is weak, but that his true energy is trapped in his body by something and cannot be driven, so he appears as weak as an ordinary person.
Shan Zhigang also felt that the energy supplying the operation of the Nine-Eyed Dzi Bead was showing signs of being out of control. His expression changed slightly, and he couldn't care too much. The jade in his palm suddenly emitted a strong light. Zhou Ji was shaken, and he quickly turned sideways to cover it, and then
When he turned around, Shan Zhigang had disappeared.
The sudden strong light shocked not only Zhou Ji, but also some residents in the community. Zhou Ji saw several households around him and planned to open the curtains and look down. He hid in the corridor and waited until the surroundings returned to quiet before looking towards the second room.
Walk around the corner of the building.
The door sounded softly.
Zhao Jianglong stayed in the hospital for a week due to a stab wound in his abdomen. He has just returned home and has already fallen asleep.
Jia Guizhi is still preparing warm chicken soup in the kitchen, planning to simmer it overnight to replenish Lao Zhao's health tomorrow.
After all, she was behind the previous trip to Dana, and even Zhao Jianglong coveted the Nine-Eyed Dzi Bead from his partner because of her.
She also noticed the white light that came on in the community just now. She just thought it was a child from another family playing with a bright flashlight, so she didn't pay attention to it.
It wasn't until the door clicked that her heart suddenly jumped. She didn't want to open the door, but she heard the door creaking and the door lock being opened quietly. Under the dim light of the corridor, a well-proportioned man stood in front of the door.
, gently buttoned the already opened door, and asked: "Excuse me, does Ms. Jia Guizhi live here?"
"You...who are you! You...I'm going to call the police! You are breaking into a private house, which is illegal!" Jia Guizhi couldn't figure out the context of the person because there was no one in the room.
She turned on the light, so she couldn't see clearly whether there was a scar on the other person's face, and subconsciously thought that it was Zhao Jianglong's previous partner with a scar face who came to her door.
But when she picked up the kitchen knife next to her and pointed it at her, Zhou Ji suddenly turned on the door switch, and the living room suddenly became brighter.
Only then did she realize that the person who came was a handsome young man with long hair. He always had a smile on his face and clear eyes. He didn't look like a bad guy.
"Honey, who's here?"
Some weak sounds came from the direction of the bedroom.
Zhao Jianglong, who was awakened by Jia Guizhi, weakly called out to Jia Guizhi, but suddenly heard a nightmare-like voice coming from the living room.
"Don't rush to call the police. I just want to ask Ms. Jia a few questions and then leave." When Zhou Ji entered the room, he observed the general outline of the room. It had two bedrooms and one living room, less than 100 square meters.
It can be seen from the simple decoration that Zhao Jianglong's family background is average, but his side business is usually not visible to the public. Even if he is rich, he will not show it like a nouveau riche. Zhou Ji sat down on the sofa nonchalantly and motioned for Jia Guizhi to sit down too.
Jia Guizhi turned back and glanced in the direction of the bedroom. Although she was worried about Zhou Ji and Scarface's group, she still had a backup plan and believed that the other party could not hurt her.
Quietly covering her left wrist, Jia Guizhi said in a deep voice: "I don't know what you want to ask. I only know that this is a society governed by law. There are surveillance cameras at the entrance and stairs of the community. As long as I call the police, you will definitely be in trouble."
Zhou Ji shook his head. The surveillance camera at the stairway had long been damaged by Shan Zhigang.
Shan Zhigang, who has lived in a modern city for more than ten years, understands these common sense things very well, so he dares to expose extraordinary human power in the community.
"Good... hero, spare your life." Zhao Jianglong had seen Zhou Ji's ruthlessness. After hearing Jia Guizhi's threat, he no longer dared to pretend to be dead silently. He endured the pain in his abdomen and shouted, "Ask whatever you want to ask."
, we husband and wife must know everything and talk about everything.”
"Jiang Long!" Jia Guizhi could hear the trembling in Zhao Jianglong's tone, and his face became increasingly ugly. He blocked the bedroom door, thinking that Zhou Ji was going to do something bad to them.
Zhou Ji shook his head and chuckled. He took out his phone from his pocket and swiped it a few times. He found the photo of Si Teng that he had secretly taken before. He glanced at Jia Guizhi and asked, "Do you recognize the person in the photo?"
"Miss Bai Ying!" Jia Guizhi's face turned pale. He held on to the door frame and slowly slid to the ground. His horrified expression seemed to have seen something extremely terrible.
The woman in the photo is wearing a champagne-colored vine-patterned lace beaded cheongsam, sitting elegantly in a water bar and drinking a drink, although her expression is softer and gentler than in the painting decades ago.
But the appearance and posture that seemed to come out of the painting made her suddenly see the Miss Bai Ying who had cursed three generations of the Jia family.
"Bai Ying?" Zhou Ji immediately wrote down the name, turned the photo to the painting from the Republic of China period, and said in a deep voice, "Is this the Bai Ying you are talking about?"
