The next day.
Jiang Yi received a call from Mr. Zhou while he was having breakfast.
"Mr. Zhou called me at this time, I guess you know something, right?"
Jiang Yi asked straight to the point.
Mr. Zhou's voice was a little low on the other end of the phone, and he seemed very depressed.
"Mr. Xiao Jiang, can we meet and talk?"
Mr. Zhou was born in a military family and had a tough personality. At the moment, he had not yet dispelled his suspicion of Jiang Yi, and he could not do such a thing as enthusiastically calling the other party "Mr. Xiao Jiang".
But Jiang Yi did not mind. After reporting an address, he hung up the phone.
Half an hour later, Jiang Yi met Mr. Zhou in the hotel restaurant.
The hotel restaurant is on the 38th floor. The two of them sat by the window and could see the view of the Imperial Capital when they turned their heads.
After sitting down, Mr. Zhou did not speak. His eagle-like eyes stared at Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi at this moment had changed a lot from when they first met.
Compared with before, his whole temperament was different.
Although the clothes on his body were not top brands, they were no longer the street stall goods before.
Except for the fact that he was still thin and malnourished, he looked like an ordinary rich young master at this moment.
But Mr. Zhou knew that he was not that simple.
At such a young age, he could find a Tang Dynasty porcelain bowl among so many fakes at a glance.
He could also see the problem with the jade ring on his hand, and even escaped from the surveillance of the mercenaries without a trace, and no information could be found...
The most important thing was that he deliberately released his aura, and this kid didn't feel any pressure at all.
Such a person, from any aspect, would not be an ordinary person with no background.
Before coming here, Mr. Zhou had recalled every scene of his acquaintance with Jiang Yi.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this guy was deliberately approaching him.
So, who is he?
And who sent him here?
Seeing that Mr. Zhou had not spoken, he did not take the initiative to speak, and slowly ate the rich breakfast in front of him.
Until he finished the last bite of fried eggs, he drank a sip of milk, then wiped his mouth, looked up at Mr. Zhou, and asked with a smile: "Mr. Zhou wanted to see me today, and now he is not wearing a ring on his hand. It seems that he has noticed something wrong... In this case, ask if you have any questions."
Mr. Zhou narrowed his eyes and said straight to the point: "Why are you approaching me?"
Jiang Yi chuckled at the words, and did not deny it.
"Mr. Zhou, if I say I want to save you, will you believe me?"
"No."
"It's really troublesome..." Jiang Yi threw away the napkin in his hand and leaned back lazily, "I said that good people can't do it."
Mr. Zhou's face darkened: "Young man, I advise you not to be mysterious here. I, Zhou Maoxun, am not someone you can fool casually."
Jiang Yi put away the indifference on his face and said seriously: "Since Mr. Zhou thinks I am fooling you, or even has something to do with you, then you don't have to come to me. I respect Mr. Zhou who has fought for the country and the people, so I'm kind enough to help you, but if you insist on speculating on me with malice, then there is nothing to talk about between us."
After speaking, Jiang Yi stood up and wanted to leave.
He wanted to help Mr. Zhou because of the purple aura on him, but this did not mean that Mr. Zhou could be superior to him in front of him as a superior.
Mr. Zhou originally just wanted to trick Jiang Yi, but he didn't expect this young man to be so stubborn.
Now he had to learn the truth about the jade ring from him, so he naturally couldn't let him go, so he had to soften his attitude.
"Mr. Jiang, please stay."
Jiang Yi paused and looked back at Mr. Zhou.
Mr. Zhou didn't expect that he would have to bow to such a young man at his age. He was angry, but he had to swallow his anger.
Mr. Zhou: "Mr. Jiang, I apologize for my attitude just now."
Jiang Yi smiled faintly and said, "Okay, since Mr. Zhou said so, I can't say anything else. I just hope that Mr. Zhou can remember in the future that I respect you and I hope you can respect me, even though I am young."
Mr. Zhou: "Of course."
"Mr. Zhou, please sit down."
As he said that, Jiang Yi sat down again, called the waiter over, and asked for a pot of tea.
Mr. Zhou looked at Jiang Yi's calm appearance and was so angry that he almost fainted.
But Jiang Yi didn't seem to care.
There was no such thing as being humble to save someone.
Even if he is a person with great merit, it is not worth him to wrong himself.
Ten minutes later, the waiter came with a pot of tea, poured tea for the two and left.
Jiang Yi took a sip of the teacup, and then said: "Mr. Zhou, I know what you are thinking now. It's nothing more than that I am sent by your enemy to deal with you. As for how to deal with you, I think you must have your own ideas in your mind... I don't want to waste too much time explaining these things."
"I will only say these words once. If you believe it, I can save your life. If you don't believe it, you and I don't have to see each other again."
When Mr. Zhou heard this, he was shocked.
What does it mean?
Is this kid saying that this jade ring will kill him?
Jiang Yi continued: "My identity is very simple. I am just an ordinary high school student. I have to take the college entrance examination in the second half of the year. But I happen to be half a person in the Xuanmen, so I know a little about metaphysics. I approached you before because I could see the purple air on you at a glance. People with purple air on their bodies are people with great merits and can be protected by the heaven. I chose to help you for this reason."
"Now the purple air on your body has begun to be entangled by black air. This is because you have been hit by evil magic. The problem lies in your jade ring. If this continues, you will die suddenly within a year..."
"What? Die suddenly?"
The face of Mr. Zhou changed completely.
Although he had come through the hail of bullets and was not afraid of death.
But who would want to die if they can live?
And it was such a way to die.
"That's right..." Jiang Yi nodded slightly, and then added: "Of course, you can choose not to believe it. After all, I can't prove to you that something hasn't happened yet."
After hearing this, Mr. Zhou was silent for a long time, and then said: "What do you mean by saving me, Mr. Jiang?"
Jiang Yi thought for a moment, and explained in a way that ordinary people could understand: "Kill the real owner of this jade ring..."
Mr. Zhou was shocked again when he saw Jiang Yi's childish face saying that he wanted to kill someone.
This young man really refreshed his cognition again and again...
But the next second, his youngest son Zhou Xinan's face suddenly flashed in front of him.
According to Jiang Yi, is he going to kill his son?
Jiang Yi saw the changing expression of Mr. Zhou's face, and guessed that the person who gave him the jade ring was probably someone he trusted very much.
After all, people of their status have countless good things.
If there is no special meaning, they will not wear it on their hands all the time.
But the person who gives things may not be the real owner.
Jiang Yi felt that there was no need for the old man to face this kind of thing now, so he expressed his thoughts.
After listening to this, Mr. Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, but he did not completely believe Jiang Yi at this time, so he asked: "I wonder when Mr. Jiang can help me?"
Before Jiang Yi takes action, he at least needs to know what he plans to do.
Since Jiang Yi said that this is a matter of metaphysics, he must first find a few people in the Xuanmen to confirm this matter.
But Jiang Yi gave an answer that he did not expect at all.
"I have had some problems with my body recently, and I can't solve this matter completely now, so you have to wait. During this period, you can also find some other people in the Xuanmen. If they can solve it, it will be even better."
The answer given by Jiang Yi was completely beyond Mr. Zhou's expectations.
He originally thought that Jiang Yi would directly save him, but he did not expect that he would actually let him find someone else to see first.
It was because of this sentence that Mr. Zhou's trust in Jiang Yi increased a little bit.
"Then Mr. Jiang, do you know anyone in the Xuanmen that you can recommend?"
Jiang Yi shook his head: "Sorry, I don't know anyone."
Old Zhou was a little unconvinced: "Does Mr. Jiang have no master or fellow disciples?"
Jiang Yi knew that Old Zhou was testing him, and smiled: "My master has long passed away, and I don't have any fellow disciples."
Jiang Yi did have a master, but in another world, and even in that world, he had long passed away.
So he was not lying.
