"Oh, yes, why?" Jiang Xiao was neither shocked nor angry, but only asked lightly.

"Because...... Just as you can't fully trust me, how dare I trust you completely?" Ochre Yu said lightly: "I don't know your name, I don't know your identity, I don't know what information you want to tell me, I don't know how Ziyan died, and even ...... There is no death. ”

He paused and continued, "And Dark Flame, like me, is a cadre of the academy, and like me, is a friend of Ziyan. I only rely on one sentence from you, saying that Ziyan died at the hands of Dark Flame, so I will kill Dark Flame? If what you say is true, then what can you use to prove it? If what you say is false, who will pay for Dark Flame's life?"

"No matter what information Ziyan wants you to pass on to me, and how important it is, I will not risk the lives of my companions to make this big gamble. So, if you can only gain your trust by killing Darkflame...... All I can say is that it's a pity. I'm sorry. ”

"Good. Jiang Xiao silently listened to Zheyu's words and smiled: "You passed my trust test." ”

"Why?" said Ochre wondered.

"Yes. Passed. Jiang Xiao said: "If you directly agree to come down, kill Dark Yan, gain my trust, and let me tell you Ziyan's last words before he died, I won't dare to trust you." As you said, you can't make a rash promise to kill a fellow in the academy without knowing anything. If you really say yes, then I'll be suspicious - either you know the real cause of Ziyan's death, or even participated in it, or you know what the information Ziyan might tell you is. And your reaction now is the most real and normal. ”

"You haven't thought about it, is this also a possibility that I disguised?"

Jiang Xiao sighed and said, "Of course I thought about it. It's just that...... I had no other choice. Your answer alone is not enough to increase my trust in you to 100 percent, but when I think about it, there is no way to make myself trust you 100 percent. So...... I can only bet on it, as long as the odds of winning are more than 50%, I will bet. ”

"In other words, now your trust in me has exceeded fifty percent?" Ochre Yu smiled: "Then, tell me if you want Ziyan to bring to me." ”

"Yes. It's not much, but it's exceeded. Jiang Xiao said: "But these words can't be said on the phone." Let's talk about it when we meet. ”

"Good. Do you set the place, or do I set the place?"

"It's up to you. Jiang Xiao said: "Anyway, for you, if you really want to ambush me, then no matter where I set, you will definitely have the ability to arrange a trap." So, it's up to you to arrange it. ”

"Then ......" Zhen Yu thought for a while: "The South Court of Yuling University, in two hours, is it okay?"

"Good. See you then. ”

Jiang Xiao hung up the phone, stretched out his hand and gently pressed his temple, and smiled bitterly.

He didn't exaggerate on the phone, and his trust in ochre can only be slightly more than fifty percent now.

And if his trust is misjudged once it is wrong, then ......

This feeling of dancing on the tightrope is really the most annoying thing for Jiang Xiao.

He has always been very confident in his mind. But Jiang Xiao didn't want to, and didn't think he had the ability to enter the underground world that belonged to the supernatural.

He just wants to rely on his own powers, without being known, to obtain some worldly benefits and live a good life.

And no matter what the academy secretly planned, what Dark Flame and Purple Smoke and the others were fighting for, it should have nothing to do with him!

And the meaning of Neanderthal's bloodline is something that should have been sealed into the ground a long time ago!

But no matter how unwilling he was, Jiang Xiao was still swept into all this without any resistance.

In addition to Ziyan, there is also that Lao Hua.

At this time, looking back on last night, Jiang Xiao was almost ninety percent sure that Lao Hua had used some kind of means to affect his mind.

If Jiang Xiao is allowed to make another judgment, he will never go to Bitan Mountain, but he will definitely go out immediately and drive home.

If that's the case, then everything that happens now will have nothing to do with him.

Ke Lao Hua ...... Why did he do this? Jiang Xiao couldn't figure this out.

And he no longer wants to have any more contact with Lao Hua and the tavern called Drinker.

Quickly ending all this and bringing his life back on track is Jiang Xiao's only purpose now.

The agreed time was two hours later, and the bathing center where Jiang Xiao was now was only half an hour away from Yuling University, the place set by Zhe Yu. Jiang Xiao thought about it, first went to take a hot bath, then set an alarm clock, and slept for a while. Because he had already explained to the waiter in advance, no one came to disturb his rest from beginning to end.

An hour or so of rest, although it is not enough to completely make up for the energy consumed by Jiang Xiao last night, it is better than nothing. By the time Jiang Xiao left, he had already recovered a lot of energy.

When Jiang Xiao arrived at Yuling University, there were still ten minutes left before the agreed time. He asked two students on the way and came to the side of the road on the South Course. At this moment, there are two teams of students playing an impromptu game in the stadium, and a group of girls on the sidelines are cheering and shouting, but they can't find someone who looks like ochre.

Jiang Xiao walked slowly along the edge of the court, paying attention to everyone who passed back and forth. Although the mobile phone was in his hand, he thought about it, but did not call Zheyu again.

When there were still two minutes left before the appointed time, Jiang Xiao saw a figure walk out of the teaching building on the side and walk straight towards him.

The man was wearing a thin short trench coat, a plain white scarf around his neck, and a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and he looked to be in his thirties, looking like an intellectual.

When Jiang Xiao's gaze met him, he was sure in his heart that this person was Ochre Yu.

Ochre Yu walked in front of Jiang Xiao, the two stared at each other, nodded to each other, and each showed a smile.

"I am Ochre. I really didn't expect that the person who asked me to meet turned out to be the famous magician Mr. Jiang Xiao. Zhe Yu stretched out his hand to Jiang Xiao: "What, are you quite satisfied with the meeting place I arranged? By the way, my external identity is a teacher in the Department of Foreign Languages of Yuling University. ”

"Very satisfied. Jiang Xiao looked around and nodded. A game is going on on the pitch next to it, and a large number of students are cheering on both sides. The road next to the stadium is also a main road on campus, and students and teachers pass back and forth from time to time. In this environment, it is impossible to make a big fight.

Not to mention, Zhe Yu is still a teacher at this university - Jiang Xiao did not suspect that he was lying, just now two girls passed by and said goodbye to Zhe Yu with a smile.

Ochre Yu's arrangement is very sincere. At least it shows his attitude - he will not clash with Jiang Xiao here.

"You should know something more about me than being a magician. Since they are all from the academy, then you should know that a few days ago, Ziyan came to look for me. Jiang Xiao said.

"Let's talk as we go. Nice view from our school. Zhe Yu nodded to Jiang Xiao, stretched out her hand and made a "please" gesture, and then walked forward first: "That's right, I did hear Ziyan tell me a while ago that she found another kind of person who might exist, and she is still a celebrity." But I didn't expect it...... Today you came to tell me her bad news. ”

As he spoke, Zhe Yu turned his head and looked at Jiang Xiao: "Are you really sure that Ziyan is dead?"

Jiang Xiao sighed: "Sure." Even her body is mine...... processed. He didn't use the word buried, and after thinking about it, he didn't tell Ochre that he somehow got a part of the cells of Purple Smoke.

She ...... You say, it was Dark Flame who killed her, but I can't think of any reason why Dark Flame would kill Purple Smoke. Zhen Yu furrowed her brows: "The private relationship between them is only better than with me." ”

Zhen Yu raised her head and glanced at Jiang Xiao, and hurriedly added, "I'm sorry, it's not that I don't trust you. It's just that this kind of thing happens...... It's a little more than I imagined. ”

Jiang Xiao also looked at the ochre jade beside him, and said in a deep voice: "Purple smoke...... Got a map of where something was buried. The thing that could make Darkflame decide to kill Purple Smoke for its value, I think, you can imagine what it is. ”

"Some kind of ...... Things?" Ochre Yu was puzzled for a moment, frowned and thought, and his eyes behind the lenses suddenly widened: "Could it be ...... Is it a seed?"

Jiang Xiao nodded: "That's right." This is indeed the word that I heard in their conversation last night. Seed. But I have never understood what this so-called seed is, and what kind of value it has, so that you all attach importance to it. ”

"Seeds......" Zhe Yu thought for a while and smiled bitterly: "I really don't know, how to explain it to you." It was just a legend, more ethereal than all the myths of antiquity ever recorded by mankind. Even I wondered if Ziyan's map was real—I was not just talking about the accuracy of the location of the seed she had, but whether the so-called seed really existed in this world. ”

"Whether the legend is true or not, at least tell me what the seed is in the legend. ”

Ochre Yu frowned and thought for a long time before he said slowly: "In the legend, the seed is ...... A legacy left in this world by pure-blooded Neanderthals 100,000 years ago. ”
