He Zhuo: "What should we do?"
Macaw: "Gah, kill them!"
He Zhuo gave a thumbs up: "Brother Gangzi, warrior, you go!"
Chi Yanzhou: "Let's find a place and leave at night."
Before he finished speaking, Lu Nange had already turned into a dark narrow alley: "This way!"
In the shanty towns on both sides of the alley, residents rushed to the streets after hearing the broadcast.
He Zhuo placed his palms on the ground, and a wall of earth rose up, perfectly hiding the figures of several people in the shadows of the alley corner.
After the noisy crowd dispersed, Lu Nange stopped in front of a gray single-family house.
This type of apartment with a yard is exactly the same as the one they rented - she took note of this location the last time she rented a house, and she didn't expect it would come in handy.
He scanned the room with his mental power and found that there was no one in the room.
Lu Nange gently pushed open the rusty iron fence.
Everyone rushed into the courtyard, with Chi Yi following behind and closing the gate.
The door inside the house also had an old-fashioned pin-and-tumble lock.
A golden light flashed on Lu Beiye's fingertips, and the tiny supernatural thread probed into the keyhole, and in the blink of an eye it condensed into the shape of a key.
With a crisp "click", the door opened.
Everyone quickly checked the house and made sure it was safe.
Chi Yanzhou opened the locked window.
He went out and locked the door again, climbed into the house through the window, and restored the window lock.
They chose a room closest to the house and used thick curtains to block out the light, ensuring that they would not attract the attention of the neighbors.
He Zhuo sat down next to Ji Xian and said, "Old Ji, how did those beasts torture you like that?"
Ji Xian curled his lips and said, "They just wanted to get to know us, asking about our origins and abilities... I didn't tell them, but they started to act."
Upon hearing this, several boys touched Ji Xian's shoulders with their fists in tacit understanding.
He Zhuo: "Old Ji, I respect you as a real man!"
Macaw: "The lasso man!"
Everyone...
The atmosphere in the room seemed less depressing.
A dim camping light lit up in the middle of the room.
Lu Nange took out the ice bucket and everyone placed the buckets around. Gangzi flapped his wings at the right time, and a cool breeze with frost circulated in the room.
"Eat." Lu Nange distributed the odorless food to avoid the fragrance attracting unnecessary attention.
He Zhuo took a big bite of bread and suddenly muttered without thinking: "If we were characters in a TV show, we probably wouldn't live past thirty."
Gu Wan raised an eyebrow: "What do you mean?"
"Have you ever seen a group of protagonists as unlucky as us?" He Zhuo curled his lips, and bread crumbs fell to the ground: "We were chased and blocked wherever we went, like rats crossing the street. We hid in a dark room and waited for dark, then fled in disgrace!"
Chi Yanzhou squeezed the empty water bottle and said, "Why? Do you want to find a place for Ji Xian?"
"Brother Yan..." He Zhuo widened his eyes.
Gu Qi sneered: "Your face says I want to fight."
"So...is it okay?" He Zhuo rubbed his hands and looked at everyone eagerly.
Ji Xian lowered his eyes: "Don't bother, there are tens of thousands of people in the Jia City base. Besides, Sister Wen Qing cured me."
Lu Xici suddenly said: "Do you want to do it?"
"What's the point of thinking?" Ji Xian turned his face away: "I was arrested because of my own poor ability... I don't need your kindness."
Lu Xici: "Who would risk their life for love?"
He Zhuo: "We are angry, Ji Xian, and anyone who hurts our friends should not be let off."
Ji Xian raised his head suddenly...
