Chapter 7 Crisis Awareness

  Their eyes met, and Zhang Yi's gaze was filled with confusion, while Meng Xian'er showed no surprise at all, as if she had expected to run into Zhang Yi. Her beautiful eyes were filled with a gentle smile.

  "What brings you here?"

  Zhang Yi came before Meng Xiang'er and curiously asked.

  Meng Xian'er lightly laughed and said: "You can be here? Why can't I be here?"

  Zhang Yi's face was momentarily stunned, and he then smiled wryly, saying: "It's just a bit unexpected."

  Meng Xian'er's gaze swept over Zhang Yi several times, before she smiled lightly and said: "It's only been a few months since we last parted ways, I didn't expect you to become even more formidable!"

  "What does it mean?"

  Zhang Yi's eyebrows slightly furrowed as he asked. Under Meng Xian'er's gaze, he felt like he was being seen through, a feeling he didn't particularly enjoy. However, from Meng Xian'er's body, there emanated an aura that he found very likable - it was calm and soothing, as if it could cleanse one's heart and bring tranquility to his mind, making him involuntarily drawn to her.

  "I'll wait for you inside."

  Meng Xian'er's voice fell, and she turned around and walked inside.

  Zhang Yi watched as Meng Xian'er's back disappeared into the distance before walking up to the librarian and saying, "Hello, I'm a new student this semester. Since I haven't received my student ID yet, this is a proof of identity from our medical school's Dean Sun. I hope to borrow a few books to take home."

  The librarian's eyes widened in surprise as he took the ID card from Zhang Yi, and upon seeing Sun Shao Hua's signature and the medical school seal on it, he nodded with a smile:

  "Go pick out a book! However, our library has rules. Books that are borrowed should not be damaged. Try not to lose them, otherwise you will be held responsible."

  Zhang Yi smiled and said: "Thank you. I understand."

  As he strolled in front of the rows of bookshelves, Zhang Yi was shocked by the enormity of the library at Jingnan University and its staggering number of books. However, the staff here had clearly categorized all types of books, so Zhang Yi easily arrived at the bookshelf about medicine.

  Carefully selected.

  After spending twenty minutes, he selected five medical books, three of which were about traditional Chinese medicine case studies and pharmaceutical annotations.

  "My goodness! It's really Mu Xian'er, the number one on the School Flower List. The heavenly girl who just arrived at school and squeezed out Gu Xin Yue, Teacher Gu. If she could be my girlfriend, that would be awesome!"

  "I'm telling you, brother, this is like a toad wanting to eat swan meat, daydreaming! A beauty like Meng Xiang'er, can you even touch her? Only a great guy like me can capture her and bring the beauty back home."

  "Fart. The mirror you're looking at must be a funny mirror. With your appearance, you're not even as handsome as me! I'm the one who can capture the heart of a beauty!"

  "Where is the restroom? I think I'm going to throw up..."

  Whispers came from behind the bookshelf in the next room.

  Zhang Yi's face was filled with a strange expression. When he thought of the "School Beauty Rankings" compiled by Lu Xiaotao, he couldn't help but feel amused. However, he never expected that the number one beauty on the list would be Meng Xian'er, and the second place would be Gu Xin Yue.

  No longer listening to the two boys verbally attacking each other. Yang Yang boasted, Zhang Yi hugged five carefully selected books and walked towards the book desk over there.

  At this time, there were not many people in front of the bookshelves in the library, only a dozen or so scattered in various corners. Zhang Yi found that no matter whether it was boys or girls around him, their eyes would intentionally or unintentionally glance at Meng Xiang'er, who had the heart to study?

  Meng Xian'er's reading position was a bit secluded. Zhang Yi walked over to sit across from her and only then asked in a hushed tone:

  "You asked me to come over, what's up?"

  Meng Xian'er raised her head and calmly said: "Recently these days, pay attention to safety."

  Zhang Yi furrowed his brow and asked in confusion: "What does it mean?"

  Meng Xian'er shook her head and said: "I've said what I needed to say, if you want to read here, be quiet, if not, then leave!"

  Zhang Yi's eyes sparkled with thought as he analyzed the meaning of Meng Xian'er's words thread by thread.

  Has she been careful about her safety recently?

  Will something dangerous happen to myself?

  Who is going to pay for himself? Or an accidental accident?

  And also!

  How did she know?

  A pair of venomous eyes suddenly appeared in Zhang Yi's mind, his eyes narrowed, and a cold light flowed at the bottom of his eyes.

  Zhao Xi

  Recently, I have offended no one except Zhao Xi.

  Could it be him...or is the Zhao family going to deal with themselves?

  In Zhang Yi's heart, a sense of vigilance rose, and he nodded silently, holding the medical book and standing up. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly spoke out: "I think you shouldn't be reading books here."

  Meng Xian'er raised her head again, bewildered: "Why?"

  "Because you're here, even if it's not noisy, it will still affect others' studies. Don't believe me? Just pay attention to the people around you next week and you'll notice something unusual."

  After finishing speaking, he walked towards the library door with big strides.

  Meng Xian'er turned her head and slowly scanned the surroundings, suddenly understanding what was meant: The students around her would occasionally steal glances at herself, and they didn't have their hearts on reading or studying. Whether directly or indirectly, Zhang Yi's words were indeed correct, she had affected others.

  She sighed softly, picked up her book and walked towards the library entrance.

  Just after Meng Xiang'er left, the whispers in the library had already become a continuous murmur.

  "Who was that guy just now? He actually ran to sit in front of my goddess, and he even chatted with her for a while, this is outrageous."

  "That kid really thinks he's got a big face? He's not as handsome as me, wearing no famous brands, the first beauty of Jingnan University, Meng Xian'er, can talk to him for a few words, it's already his eight lifetimes' worth of good fortune."

  "That guy really has guts, look at the other guys around, they keep sneaking glances at Meng Xiang'er, but no one dares to go over and hit on her, typical of having a thief's heart but not a thief's courage."

  "That guy is pretty handsome, I feel like I've seen him somewhere before?"

  "Campus network. That was passed on to our school forum, the big shot who brought his daughter to read university. Now our school's hot topic, there are not a few surrounding him."

  “……”

  Zhang Yi left school. He had been thinking about Meng Xiang'er's reminder in his mind, if it was really the Zhao family who wanted to deal with him, he knew he should be more careful.

  At first, Zhao Xi was able to take out so much money and bid for the Turbid Grass with himself, which means that his family must be very rich. In addition, he had inquired from Yao Tianxiao and Hao Chengxiao, and the Turbid Grass is very helpful to ancient warriors, especially those who are seriously injured or have been abolished.

  Zhao Xi spared no expense in bidding for him, indicating that he urgently needed the Turf Grass. Therefore, there should be a figure of an ancient warrior behind his back.

  I have just broken through to the Xiantian primary realm, and for many ancient martial arts masters, my strength is still too weak. If my reasoning is correct, if the ancient martial artist behind Zhao Xi makes a move against me, I'm afraid I will really fall into danger.

  "For a moment or two, wanting to make one's cultivation soar is impossible. So one needs some other means of survival."

  Firearms?

  Nowadays it is a society ruled by law, even if you are a martial artist, you cannot carry them at will.

  Apart from firearms, what else should one prepare?

  Suddenly, he thought of the silver needles he used when fighting with Yan Huiying.

  Right!

  You need to get some special silver needles, even iron and steel needles will do. That thing is a great hidden weapon for sneak attacks on enemies.

  He didn't go back home but instead dialed Lu Xiaotao's phone number.

  "Hey? Which bastard is disturbing my beautiful dream so early in the morning? Two big beauties... " The complaining voice of Lu Xiaotao came from the phone.

  This stuff!

  He is really something!

  Zhang Yi was a civilized person, but at this time he couldn't help but bitterly laugh and curse in his heart.

  "I am Zhang Yi, I have something to look for you."

  Zhang Yi said.

  After more than ten seconds, what came from Zhang Yi and others was not Lu Xiaotao's voice, but a loud humming sound.

  This guy must have been a sworn brother of Zhu Bajie in his past life! He's lustful, sleepy, and has a mouth that can't keep secrets!

  Zhang Yi secretly sighed and hung up the phone, then dialed again.

  "Who is it..."

  The phone was answered, and Lu Xiaotao shouted with great dissatisfaction.

  "My name is Zhang Yi."

  "Zhang Yi? Who's Zhang Yi? You dialed the wrong number... what? No, no, it's Brother Yi! I'm still half asleep, my brain hasn't woken up yet. What's with calling me so early in the morning, is something going on?"

  Good morning?

  Zhang Yi looked at the time and it was already 9:30, what "early" morning?

  What time zone is this product in?

  "Something's up, are you at home? I'm coming over now!"

  "Alright, I'll get up now and wait for you at home..."

  He hung up the phone and walked towards Lu Xiaotao's house. Since it wasn't far away, he didn't take a car either.

  He didn't notice that in a nearby street corner, Zhao Tao was holding his mobile phone and quietly took two photos of Zhang Yi before disappearing into the crowd.

  According to Lu Xiaotao's address, Zhang Yi soon arrived at Lu Xiaotao's doorstep.

  "Ding dong..."

  Within a few seconds of ringing the doorbell, the door was opened from inside. Lu Xiaotao, wearing a vest and floral shorts, with slippers on his feet, appeared in front of Zhang Yi.

  "Hey, Brother Yi, come on in."

  Lu Xiaotao rubbed his hands together and warmly greeted him.

  Zhang Yi stepped into the house, and when he saw the decorations in the living room, he nodded secretly, very clean, things were placed neatly, and even a faint lemon scent was floating in the air.

  "I thought it would be like a pigsty here, but I didn't expect it to be so clean and tidy!"

  Lu Xiaodao walked to the refrigerator, took out two cans of drinks from inside, and handed one to Zhang Yi. He smiled slyly all over his face: "How could that be? If my place is too messy, in the future when I bring a girl back to spend the night, she'll definitely be disgusted. Cleaning up neatly and tidily, in the future when I bring a girl back, she'll also have a few more points of good impression on me, right?"

  "Hmmph..."

  Listening to Lu Xiaotao's nonsense, Zhang Yi almost spat out a mouthful of old blood eight feet away.
