Chapter 35 Emergencies
"I understand. But ......" Jiang Xiao was still a little puzzled: "Even if I want to resurrect Ziyan, that's just my business." There's absolutely no need for you to tell me this. Why are you doing this?"
"Didn't I say it, I'm curious about you!" Xinyun grinned: "You are indeed too strange. ”
"Is it just because I didn't show the respect I should have for you as a priest?
Xinyun shook her head: "No." And that's not all...... There is something stranger about you. ”
"What is it?"
"As I told you, by contacting the genes of other Awakened, the priests can read the fragments of history that lurk in their bloodlines. But ......" Xinyun touched the fur of the puppy in her arms, and her face became serious: "After I tasted your blood, I didn't find anything!"
"Didn't find anything?" Jiang Xiao was stunned.
"Yes. This is completely counterintuitive. Although you are not yet fully awakened, you have shown your abilities in front of me, and it is certain that you have a high enough percentage of Neanderthal genes. But when I came into contact with your genes, I couldn't get any information out of them anyway. Hear clearly, it's any! It's so abnormal!" Xinyun looked serious: "This kind of thing has never happened. So I think...... There must be something different about you that is different from other awakened people. And this weird difference, I can't explain, so I hope you can go with me to the seeds. There, maybe I'll be able to find out. ”
“...... All right. Jiang Xiao fell into deep contemplation, and nodded for a long time: "I'll go with you." Anyway, you and I have our own goals, and they both point to the seed. And ...... anyway"
Jiang Xiao smiled helplessly and sighed: "Anyway, my life can't get worse." ”
"That's right!" Xinyun grinned, stretched out her hand, and rubbed Jiang Xiao's head hard: "Good, good! Let's go find seeds, and then my sister will buy you candy to eat!"
"Sister yarn!, you little devil!" Jiang Xiao slapped Xinyun's hand heavily, and there was no respect for the priest on his face: "Do you still want to play with the puppy?"
"Cut! Murder is dead!" Xinyun pouted and withdrew her hand, hugging the little corgi in her arms tightly: "Good dog, let's ignore him!"
Jiang Xiao looked at Xinyun with a smile and a look of pity on his face, but at this moment, the mobile phone in his arms suddenly rang.
Jiang Xiao took out his mobile phone and saw that the caller turned out to be Zhao Tianyu. Only then did he remember that he had promised her, and when he was done, he would go to her and tell her everything.
It's just that I didn't expect that I was only going to hand over the words to Lao Hua to pass it on, but I met Xinyun, and went to the middle school together to find the message left by Ziyan, and then returned to Xinyun's home to listen to Ziyan's recording. This toss is already more than two o'clock in the evening. And Jiang Xiao had already forgotten about Zhao Tianyu.
She...... Isn't it possible that you haven't slept yet, and you've been waiting for yourself?
Jiang Xiao hurriedly picked up the phone, still hesitating in her heart, if she told Zhao Tianyu so many things, would she be able to accept it, or even ...... Will you believe it?
On the other end of the phone, Zhao Tianyu's voice was a little hurried: "Jiang Xiao, where are you, can you come to my house now?"
"Uh...... Now?" Jiang Xiao smiled bitterly: "It's already past two o'clock, there's no need to be in such a hurry, right?" I know I promised to tell you everything, but ...... Can't you go again tomorrow?"
"Not for that. Zhao Tianyu's voice on the other end of the phone was still urgent: "It's me here...... Something has gone wrong, and I have to meet with you. ”
Jiang Xiao's heart suddenly sank, something happened to Zhao Tianyu, what did he mean?
He suddenly remembered Li Qin's sneak attack before, as well as the wounded abyss he saw today. Although Li Qin is dead, the main messenger behind it is likely to be Ochre Yu. And Hurt Yuan also said when they left today that the academy would never give up that seed.
But they ...... Could it really be that he would attack Zhao Tianyu, who was completely innocent, irrelevant, and not even an awakened person?!
Thinking of this, Jiang Xiao asked anxiously: "Tianyu, did someone come to your house to threaten you?"
"Uh? No, it's not. Zhao Tianyu was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly denied: "I'm not in danger, it's just that something strange happened...... I couldn't make it clear on the phone, and I couldn't go out. Hurry up, I'll be waiting for you at home. ”
"Good. Be safe yourself, I'll be right away. Jiang Xiao hung up the phone and looked at Xinyun, but before she could speak, Xinyun had already leaned over with a smile on her face: "Yo, listen to the voice on the phone, it's a girl again." Why, there are quite a few girls around you, doesn't that look like a beautiful one?"
"What's around and not around!" Jiang Xiao glanced at Xinyun: "I have something to do, so I'll go first." The memory card left by Ziyan is safer to stay with you, and it wasn't mine, so I won't take it away. ”
"Wait!" Seeing Jiang Xiao standing up and about to leave, Xinyun quickly got up from the chair, jumped in front of him and opened his arms to stop: "You're just leaving?"
"What, do I still want to wash your feet with this priest lady?" Jiang Xiao frowned and smiled at Xinyun.
Xinyun grinned and shook her head: "That's not necessary." It's just that...... If someone puts a knife on her neck and forces her to say this, what should you do? Aren't you afraid of being ambushed when you go there alone? Don't forget that the academy is still staring at you. ”
Hearing Xinyun's words, Jiang Xiao realized in his heart and hurriedly asked, "That'...... Are you going to come with me?"
"Although I don't really want to move at such a late hour, I'll protect you for a trip!" Xinyun cocked her little nose and snorted proudly: "After all, your physique is so strange, I still want to find out the truth from the seed! It would be a pity if you were to die like this." ”
"That'...... Thank you. Jiang Xiao knew in his heart that Xinyun was doing this for himself. And having such a powerful helper by your side is indeed a little safer. He nodded to her earnestly.
"You're welcome. Xinyun waved her hand, jumped to the door, opened the door, and shouted outside, "Let's go out again!"
"Got it, Miss Xinyun. The red-haired young man's voice rang out outside.
"Let's go~" Xinyun winked at Jiang Xiao, reached out and grabbed his arm, and strode towards the door of the house.
Outside the door, the red-haired young man named Ranching had already started the car and was waiting at the door. Seeing Jiang Xiao and Xinyun come out, he first bowed to Xinyun, smiled at Jiang Xiao friendly, and then opened the door of the back seat for the two.
After getting into the car, Jiang Xiao reported the address of Zhao Tianyu's house, and Chaoyang just nodded to indicate that he knew, and drove forward with one foot on the accelerator.
Looking at the chaotic soil in front of him who didn't say a word and only focused on driving, Jiang Xiao couldn't help but ask curiously, "You...... Is it the driver of Xinyun?"
"Not just drivers, but also guards, cooks and housekeepers. The most important identity is that I am Miss Xinyun's registered citizen. He replied without looking back: "So, my whole life belongs to Miss Xinyun." ”
Jiang Xiao's brows furrowed slightly, and he snorted, and stopped answering.
Every time he heard the word Zhuyin, he felt a huge sense of disgust in his heart that was difficult to resist.
This does not cause him to be disgusted. At least so far, he likes Xinyun very much, and he simply likes "I think this person is a good person". Xinyun gives him the feeling that he is sunny, pure, and a little girl, but when necessary, he can have full calmness and analytical skills.
And unlike Ochre Yu, Jiang Xiao knew that Xinyun had no ill will towards him. This knowledge does not come only from analysis, but also from pure feeling. There are no credentials, but they give him more peace of mind.
But no matter what kind of person Xinyun is, and Jiang Xiao can also understand her behavior as a priest and infuse such things as imprints on the awakened of lower ranks, but he still ...... It's going to feel very awkward.
Sighing secretly, Jiang Xiao put this thought away and stopped thinking about it.
Not long after the car drove away, it stopped downstairs at Zhao Tianyu's house. After Xinyun got out of the car with Jiang Xiao, she thought about it, turned her head and said to the chaos behind her: "You can stop here and wait for me first, you don't have to go up together." I will call you when there is a need. ”
"Understood. Chaoyang nodded respectfully, and watched Xinyun and Jiang Xiao enter the community.
When he arrived at the door of Zhao Tianyu's house, Jiang Xiao just reached out and knocked on the door, but found that the door was only hidden and did not close, and moved inward with a light touch. Jiang Xiao hurriedly glanced at Xinyun, revealing a warning look. Xinyun also nodded, signaling that she knew.
But Zhao Tianyu's voice came from inside the door: "Jiang Xiao, have you arrived?"
"It's me. Jiang Xiao said in a deep voice, and walked into the door with Xinyun, but did not close the door behind him.
Zhao Tianyu's voice came from the bathroom. But now the bathroom door is tightly closed, and you can't see what's inside.
"Don't worry, no one else is here. Xinyun tilted her little head and closed her eyes for a moment, opened her eyes and said to Jiang Xiao: "If there is an awakened person, my spiritual power can sense it." But ......"
She paused and frowned slightly: "But strangely, that friend of yours...... I don't feel ...... either."
"Tianyu, are you in the bathroom?" Jiang Xiao was puzzled for a while, and hurriedly strode to the bathroom, shouting through the door.
"I was in the bathroom. But ......" Zhao Tianyu's voice was still a little urgent as on the phone, but it didn't seem to be panicked and scared: "You can come in, but don't be scared!"
Jiang Xiao took a deep breath: "Don't worry about me. Well, I'm in. With that, he unscrewed the bathroom doorknob.
But in the bathroom, it was empty, and there was not half a figure!
