Chapter 333 Another Mystery Rises

The golden fire disappeared, and Zhao Yuxi's heart could not calm down for a long time: This powerful ancient did not appear out of thin air. Whether she had the ability to destroy the dean was unknown, because she was asking a question at the time. But it didn't matter. She dared to appear in front of me, her asymptotic rate must be lower than mine.

Because of the interference of Jinhuo, Zhao Yuxi did not want to set an example again. Those who could pay or receive 200 rewards in just a few days were not normal people, but people who were bewitched by Jinhuo. However, although they were bewitched, they did make many mistakes. If the law was strictly enforced, they should be executed immediately.

Zhao Yuxi thought about it and decided to spare their lives. Tao Ze pleaded for mercy and saved one person. As for the others, it was considered as the plea of ​​the ancients, and they were also saved. They will live in the world in a different way, from childishness to maturity, and experience the process of life and growth again. In this process, they accumulate the number of payments or gains, atone for their sins, or face execution again.

Zhao Yuxi went home to get the rejuvenation medicine and fed it to Yuan Ming.

Yuan Ming's body was shrinking, his wrinkles were disappearing, the water content of his cells was increasing, the activity of his mitochondria was increasing, and the telomeres of his chromosomes were lengthening... Zhao Yuxi had seen these phenomena in relevant materials, but today, with the help of her perception, she watched the whole process of rejuvenation. She saw and recorded all the changes in his face, bones, organs, cells, mitochondria, and chromosomes.

After taking the anti-aging drug, Yuan Ming's body returned to about eight years old, but his IQ and memory should not have regressed so much. If his IQ and memory regressed to eight years old, the side effects of this drug would be too great. But it is impossible for him to preserve all his life experiences over the past fifty years. Maybe he would lose 1/10, maybe 1/4, it all depends on his luck.

Zhao Yuxi restored Yuan Ming's hearing and sense of touch: "Do you still remember the order to maintain dignity?"

"remember."

Remembering is the truth, but it doesn't matter if you don't remember. When he pays the first reward for trampling on other people's dignity, he will understand that there is such a thing as a dignity maintenance order in this world.

"Do you remember that you are about to be beheaded?"

"remember."

He even remembered the execution? That meant he hadn't lost too much memory. Did he still remember that someone backed him up? Zhao Yuxi didn't want to delve into this question. If she brought it up deliberately, the other party might really think that it was the Ancient One who saved him from punishment.

"As one of the first people to be beheaded, you should not die easily with your sins. I let you return to your youth and start your life again. I don't want you to be in danger of being beheaded again the next time I see you."

"Yes, I understand. Thank you for your kindness, sir."

"Don't be polite. You only have one chance to repent. You should cherish it."

Zhao Yuxi left and did the same thing and said the same thing to the other three people who were about to be executed. Their attitudes were also very consistent. One person burst into tears and said that he would change his ways. The person's cry was so miserable that people who didn't know the truth might think she was bullying a child.

After dealing with these people, Zhao Yuxi went to Youlong City. She wanted to ask the dean about the strange ancient man.

Seeing him coming, Zhou Xutong put a few bamboo leaves into the bamboo tube, poured boiling water into it, and pushed the bamboo tube to her: "President Zhao Yuxi, how long have you not come to my place? I have heard of your great name very often."

"Dean, you're too kind. I just did what I should do."

What should you do? Getting married and issuing decrees are what you should do, but is it also what you should do to show off your talents in high school? If you are in high school, it is understandable, but if you are a college student, you should stop doing things that are not suitable for your age and status!

Zhou Xutong added a few cubes of ice to the cup to hide his dissatisfaction: "Why did you come to see me today? Let me see if there is anything I can do to help."

"Nothing serious, I just want to know if there are any ancients who are obviously hostile to the institute and have not been arrested recently?"

"Yes, do you think Zhang Haochen looks like him?" Zhou Xutong was a little angry: Zhang Haochen's case is still unresolved, how can you have the nerve to ask if there is such a person?
Zhao Yuxi took a sip of tea and closed her eyes.

The person who looks like gold and fire is a girl, and Zhang Haochen is also a girl, but Zhao Yuxi is very sure that they are not the same person: If Zhang Haochen wants me to help bring out the case, she can talk to me in person, instead of turning into a ball of golden flame. Doing so is a waste of effort. Because as long as I suspect her, I can get the answer by confronting her face to face. These two people have certain similarities. For example, they seem a little clumsy in perception, and they both have multiple abilities or multiple asymptotes. Maybe these two people are related, because Zhang Haochen's asymptote is not too low. She stole the seal and the files probably not for herself, but for her boss.

But if Jin Huo is Zhang Haochen's boss, then her confrontation with Zhang Haochen is tantamount to declaring war directly, which is not good for both parties. Even if a war is to be started, it should be declared by the dean, charged by the dean, and the dean should bear all the consequences. There is no need for her to take such a big risk for an illusory answer.

"Dean, besides Zhang Haochen, is there anyone else who meets the conditions I mentioned?"

Zhou Xutong realized that Zhao Yuxi probably wasn't here to cause trouble on purpose. She must have encountered some difficulties. Or maybe she had met the kind of person she was talking about, and she wanted to come to the research institute to verify it.

"I also want to know if there are these people. If so, where are they? But you guys don't help me check. If you ask me, I don't know. But I think there should be some."

"Okay, let me change the question. What has Meng Shangrong been doing recently? Is there any trouble in his jurisdiction?"

"From his work report, everything seems normal. But there is one strange thing. I heard that recently many branch deans and executive officers have gone to his place, and the vice dean has also gone there."

"Why are you running to his side? Is there anything good going on there?"

"I don't know. Even if pie falls from the sky, I can't have it if he doesn't invite me. Didn't he invite you and Gu Tingzhou?"

"No."

"Are we being targeted? Oh, there's one thing I forgot to mention. I wish you and Gu Tingzhou a happy wedding."

The topic changed so quickly! Zhao Yuxi responded politely, "Thank you."

Zhou Xutong took out a glass box from the drawer: "It's a synthetic blue diamond. It's heavy, but not expensive. I'll give it to you as a wedding gift."

The two nearly spherical blue diamonds in the box weighed more than 100 grams in total. It might not be expensive to artificially synthesize such a huge diamond, but not many people would do that. Zhao Yuxi happily accepted the diamonds. She saw the sincerity and intentions of the dean.

"Thank you. When I have time, I'll go visit Meng Shangrong."

"Did you and Gu Tingzhou hold your wedding?"

It is not easy to get the thanks from Dean Zhao Yuxi. It is even more rare to hear her smile when she says thanks. Zhou Xutong was very pleased. Dean Zhao Yuxi, who smiled at him at this time, seemed to have no power, ability or authority. Her expression when she received the gift was no different from that of ordinary people. This expression made people feel at ease and felt that goodwill was rewarded.

"No. When we have our wedding, I will definitely invite you. Then you won't have to bring any gifts."

"That won't do. You came to see me, and these two diamonds are gifts for you. When I meet Gu Tingzhou, there will be another gift for him. Can you tell me in advance when you will have your wedding?"

"Early December."

"You need to prepare early. It's best to start preparing now. A wedding cannot be prepared in a day or two."

"I understand, thank you for reminding me."
