Chapter 171
"Who are you?"
Yun Kaixin was shocked. He immediately stood up and looked over, becoming extremely alert for the sudden appearance of the man in black.
Although she was too embarrassed to care just now, she was certain that there was absolutely no other person around her before that.
But the man in black suddenly appeared behind her without making a sound. If the other party intended to take her life, it was really just a matter of thought.
"Fairy, there is no need to panic. Ye does not mean any harm. She just saw that the fairy seemed to be in trouble and couldn't bear it, so she came over to see if she needed help."
The man in black didn't care about Yun Kai's wary gaze. The smile on his face was as warm as spring, and the look he looked at Yun Kai was indescribably approachable.
Yun Kai couldn't see through the man in front of her at all, but her intuition told her that this smiling, exceptionally gentle and kind man was definitely not what he seemed on the surface.
In fact, when that obviously real, natural and flawless smile fell in her eyes, it made her subconsciously feel creepy.
"Your surname is Ye?"
Yun Kai forced himself to endure the most instinctive feeling in his heart, but he relaxed slightly on his face.
Although she didn't seem to completely believe what the other party said, she subconsciously took back some of her guard, but deliberately tried to test: "Did you really escape from the ghost beast group just now?"
Yun Kai was unable to confront a stranger who was completely invisible and whose purpose was unclear.
Since the other party has not done anything to her yet, she doesn't mind exploring the details first and seeing the situation before talking about it.
So when she spoke again, she deliberately put away some of her previous strength and changed her eyes a little, allowing her original thin temperament to naturally show more.
It was as if her initial reaction when facing the man in black was just a hard shell of self-protection instinctively put up in her panic.
Seeing this, the man in black couldn't help but chuckle, shook his head and said: "Ye, Zhongli Ye, Zhongli is the surname, and Ye is the name. Also, Ye did come out of the ghost beast group, and the situation with the fairy
It’s not much different, there’s no need to deceive the fairy about such a trivial matter.”
When Yun Kai heard this, especially the last sentence, his expression changed slightly: "It turns out to be Senior Zhongli. The senior's cultivation is indeed very strong. Unlike the junior, whose strength is low, even a mere ghost beast can make the junior so embarrassed.
.”
Haha, what a "come out". This word "walk out" is really used very well. She deserves to be called "senior".
Zhong Liye seemed to smell something slightly sour. The female cultivator in front of him looked at him with a rather complicated look, and the senior shouted with some reluctance.
It is not difficult to guess a woman's thoughts, especially since the female cultivator in front of her desperately wants to conceal her true emotions, but she is still too young and will always show some of her true nature inadvertently.
It seems that the contrast between "coming out" and "escaping" in embarrassment in what he just said has inadvertently hurt his somewhat fragile self-esteem.
"The fairy is so young, already in the late stage of foundation building, and being able to successfully escape from that wave of ghost beasts alone is already quite good. She can be regarded as a younger generation, a leader in the foundation building realm."
Zhong Liye comforted her patiently, with admiration in his eyes and sincerity.
At this moment, he was indeed extremely sincere. After all, there was no need to lie in such an evaluation. If the little female cultivator in front of him grew up, she would indeed have an immeasurable future.
Compared to those so-called geniuses, he is not inferior at all.
"Thank you for your encouragement, senior. Junior Yun Kai comes from the 69th District. I wonder which district your senior is a trialist who was promoted?"
When Yun Kai heard Zhong Liye's words, his expression became more and more relaxed, and he even took the initiative to give his name and saluted him politely.
"Yunkai, that's a pretty name."
Zhong Liye repeated Yun Kai's name and raised his hand to indicate that Yun Kai didn't need to be polite.
"It turns out that Yun Kai was promoted from the 69th District. Ye heard that there were some minor accidents in the trial session before the 69th District. This time, only ninety-eight people remained until the end and were directly promoted. Can they be promoted directly from the 69th District?
All those who advance to District 69 are not easy. Therefore, Yun Kai doesn’t need to call me Senior Ye or not. If you don’t mind, you can just call me Ye or Zhongli."
If an ordinary girl heard Zhong Liye's call, she would most likely be so happy that she would be so happy and confused. So when Yun Kai saw this, he also smiled sheepishly and said that it was purely luck.
Lord, there is nothing simple or unsimple.
The relationship between the two people seemed to have become much closer at once, and soon after, Yun Kai followed his instructions and directly called the other person Zhongli to show his closeness.
As for night or something like that, I really can't say it out loud with this word cloud. Fortunately, the closer relationship doesn't mean that we have to advance by leaps and bounds all of a sudden. Calling him the compound surname Zhongli is the best compromise.
"By the way, how does Zhongli know that there has been an accident in District 69 before?"
After a while, Yun Kai seemed to realize it in hindsight, and suddenly remembered: "We don't know the assessment situation in other districts, but Zhongli knows it so well, could it be..."
She deliberately didn't finish her sentence, as if she noticed the doubt inadvertently revealed in her tone, so she stopped immediately.
All in all, at this time, Yun Kai established a very real and full image of a young female cultivator who has extraordinary talents but a little lack of experience, has brains, is quite wary, and is always tempted intentionally or unintentionally.
Yun Kai didn't care whether Zhong Liye really believed that she was this kind of person. In short, as long as the other party didn't reveal it, it didn't matter whether she believed it or not. In short, what she did was a good layer of protection.
Anyway, the warning is real warning, and the test is also a real test. As long as Zhong Liye is willing to continue to play with her like this, he can always get something out of her mouth.
It's not that important whether it's true or false. As long as she's willing to speak and answer the conversation, there's always a chance to filter out something useful to her.
"What?"
Zhong Liye looked at Yun Kai who was hesitant to speak and asked.
To be honest, he could tell at a glance that Yun Kai was deliberately trying to trick him. The key was that the other party did not deliberately conceal this temptation.
The little female cultivator is quite interesting. She probably knows that there is a huge gap in strength between her and him, so she doesn't really let down her guard against him. She can't help but test her from time to time, but she is willing to follow him and get closer to him.
Tsk, you can be considered flexible and flexible, and you are quite aware of current affairs. Not only do you know what is best for you, but you also leave yourself room to make plans.
"Could it be...could it be that you are not a tester?"
Yun Kai hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to speak out what was in his heart. As if he was worried about something, he subconsciously explained: "I was just guessing, and I didn't mean anything else. I just thought it wouldn't make sense if we were all trialists.
You are the only one special."
"How do you know that only Ye is special? If Ye guessed correctly, after entering this trial, Ye Dang will be the first one Yun Kai encounters, right?"
Zhong Liye still had a smile on his face, as if he didn't care about Yun Kai's guess that he was not a trialist.
But similarly, he did not give a clear answer, yes or no, and just avoided it indirectly.
While speaking, Yun Kai had recovered most of his spiritual power. Hearing this, he nodded: "That makes sense. Zhongli, are you going to find your companion now?"
Yun Kai seemed to have acquiesced in Zhong Liye's identity as a trialist like her, but he did not ask the other party's specific district from which he came. Instead, he mentioned his group companions.
"I'm much better now and have no serious problems, so I want to find other companions first. After all, after the start of this round of trials, the method of trials is completely different from the previous trials. At this moment, I don't even know What is the trial mission?"
Yun Kai looked forward to it and asked, "Zhongli, do you know what the specific trial tasks of this round are?"
"Of course I know."
Zhong Liye looked at Yun Kai, smiled and asked, "But if I tell you, would you believe it?"
"Believe it, why don't you believe it? Why don't you believe it?"
Yun Kai had never seen the smile on Zhong Liye's face completely disappear. This person seemed to be born with a love of laughter. He would always have a smile on his face and would never feel any unhappiness.
"Are you trying to say that we are all testers, so as competitors, we cannot be trusted easily?"
Yun Kaiman said seriously: "However, not all competitors have to fight! Otherwise, you wouldn't have come over to ask me if I needed help from the beginning. In fact, I think we can also cooperate and complete this together. This is a round of tasks. Although my cultivation strength is temporarily lacking, I may still be able to put it to use in other aspects."
"What about?"
Zhong Liye smiled a little thicker when he looked at the young female cultivator who was extremely confident and talking seriously.
Well, he still underestimated Yun Kai's brains. Judging from this attitude, she was probably waiting for him here, and it was clearly intended to show her value.
"For example, I am a Leilinggen monk, and this place should obviously have more than just ghost beasts. Therefore, as a Leilinggen monk, I still have certain advantages in this place. As long as it is used appropriately, Maybe it can still play a big role and be of great help.”
Yun Kai continued: "For another example, I have a pretty good mind. I won't do stupid things, and I won't get in the way of being too clever at critical moments. So you see, working with me is actually not bad. There is no need to do it so quickly. Just treat it as a competitor."
"Yun Kai is absolutely right, he really convinced Ye Ye."
Zhong Liye smiled as if he was joking: "Originally, Ye really planned to eliminate a strong competitor in advance, but now it seems that it is more beneficial to cooperate with Yunkai for a win-win situation."
"Haha, Zhongli, you really know how to joke. The gap in strength between us is too big. How can I be called your strong competitor?"
Yun Kai immediately laughed: "I really got a big advantage by being able to cooperate with Zhongli! I originally thought that falling into a group of ghost beasts as soon as I came in would be extremely unlucky, but I didn't expect that Fu Ji Tailai would meet Zhongli. It was obviously a very good luck. ?”
His words were very nice, and his smile was extremely sincere and cheerful. But in fact, at this time, Yun Kai's heart was really turbulent like a stormy sea.
She was only thankful that she had the patience to deal with Zhong Liye. After all, when Zhong Liye just said, "I plan to eliminate a strong competitor in advance," she really realized that the other party was definitely not joking.
Even the so-called "elimination" was just a euphemism. Zhongliye clearly had murderous intentions towards her.
From the moment he appeared in front of her, this man's intention was actually to kill her.
As for why Zhong Liye changed his mind later, Yun Kai didn't want to make any more useless speculations. He just hoped to survive and get out when the time was right.
Of course, for now, she will never act rashly.
"Your luck is indeed good."
Seeing that Yun Kai did not take his joke seriously at all, Zhongli Ye was very happy because of the so-called cooperation. He said helplessly: "In that case, let's go with Ye."
After saying that, Zhong Liye didn't stay here anymore and walked towards the southeast.
When Yun Kai saw this, he quickly followed him.
Probably after establishing a "cooperative" relationship, Yun Kai and Zhong Liye became more comfortable talking.
"Zhongli, you just said that you know about this round of trial tasks. Can you tell me what the specific trial tasks are now?"
Yun Kai asked as he walked: "Also, who are the companions you are looking for? Do you have a way to contact them? I just tried it and found that the contact talisman here is completely unusable. I don't know if there is any way to contact them as soon as possible.
Find my companion. Also, I don’t know if there is a time limit for this mission. I always feel that this round is weird, and it doesn’t give us any hints. Do you think this is normal?
Or was there another accident?"
"You ask so many questions at once, and I don't even know which one to answer first."
Zhong Liye glanced sideways at Yun Kai: "Are you still doubting that Ye is not a trialist, but the transformation of an examiner who knows the inside story?"
Yun Kai's eyes widened subconsciously, and he said with embarrassment: "To be honest, isn't this just a chance of luck?"
Zhong Liye quickened his pace: "So, all the flattery that Yun Kai took from the beginning to the end was for the examiner who was in case of any chance, not Ye?"
"Of course not. I am not trying to flatter anyone. I am telling the truth!"
Yun Kai quickly defended: "Whether Zhongli is a trialist or an examiner, it is all because Zhongli himself is powerful."
Tsk tsk, Yun Kai felt from the bottom of his heart that he was a little unconscionable, but the more he said similar things, the smoother he became, without the slightest hint of guilt.
"Okay, you are telling the truth as soon as you open your mouth."
Zhong Liye obviously didn't believe it, but he still smiled brightly, and he was in a good mood at first sight: "Ye is not an examiner, so you can only be disappointed. However, Ye can answer those questions for you, but there are conditions.
