A 320 million yuan lottery jackpot
"Phoenix, you're too soft-hearted, it's not good for our business?" In a house on Taian Hutong in the 4th district of Beiping, Shen Jian said this and took a deep drag on his cigarette.
The Chen family's old mansion, codenamed "Ghost Mansion" within the organization, was also secretly referred to as "Phoenix Mansion" by a few individuals using Bai Liusu's codename. A year ago, they had killed several enemies there, and Bai Liusu took advantage of the opportunity to successfully impersonate a ghost, thereby turning it into an outpost with virtually no signs of outsiders.
But today——
Bai Liu Su originally had the opportunity to kill Ouyang Yun, and the lingering fragrance in his room was not something decent, it was a famous "One Night Dream" aphrodisiac from the Jianghu.
She didn't do that, instead she disguised herself as a ghost and splashed him with red ink to scare him away. Unexpectedly, she ran into a weirdo who was incredibly brave and skilled, so the one dressed up as a ghost ended up being scared off instead.
Bai Liu Su didn't want to kill anyone, but this kindness was terrifying and the consequences were quite severe. Imagine if the person involved wasn't Ouyang Yun, that kind of careless guy, I reckon they would have been scared out of their wits, and those with heart disease might have even died on the spot!
The two parties involved in the "One Night Dream" incident were both unaware of certain facts. Ouyang Yun was completely oblivious to what had happened to him; Bai Liuxu, on the other hand, thought that the "One Night Incense" had no effect on him - normally, a person who has been knocked out by the incense would feel weak and unable to exert themselves for at least one stick of incense time after being awakened. This was also why she dared to disguise herself as a ghost without fear. What she didn't know was that Ouyang Yun's physique had already been altered by more than two kilograms of medicinal pills during his special training, giving him a certain level of immunity to drugs like the incense. At the time, even if she hadn't used the red ink to stimulate him, he would still have woken up "gradually".
"I was wrong," she said timidly, "what should we do now?"
Shen Jian smiled coldly and made a throat-slitting gesture with his left hand, saying: "Let's get started at one o'clock!"
The Feng residence is their treasure trove, where too many secrets are hidden, and there can't be any room for mistakes!
Ouyang Yun scared away the female ghost, and suddenly became very interested in the room opposite - as a special forces soldier, he had a unique perspective on situations and intelligence analysis. It was clear that the room opposite was where the female ghost lived, but she only seemed to want to scare him away. So, what secrets were hidden inside?
After eating half a compressed biscuit, he sneaked into the room opposite, fumbled around and found secrets under the bed and in the closet. Under the bed was another bed, decorated very comfortably, with the lingering scent of his daughter; at the bottom of the closet was a cellar, where four burlap sacks and one wooden box were placed.
As soon as Ou Yang Yun opened the sack, she was dazzled by the bright yellow light emanating from inside and let out a startled cry: "My goodness!"
Four burlap sacks, two of which were filled with gold, he picked one up, and it weighed no less than 100 catties; the other two, one was filled with silver ingots and bronze utensils, and the other was filled with one-third jewelry and gems. The wooden box was filled with calligraphy and porcelain.
How much is this worth?! For the first time, Ouyang Yun saw so many treasures and antiques, and felt as if she was floating on air. The feeling was like finding a golden ingot in a dream, no, it was like discovering Ali Baba's treasure trove!
Ouyang Yun, who had just come to his senses, pinched his thigh hard and let out a strange cry of pain, confirming that he wasn't dreaming. He muttered to himself: "Damn it, I've finally won the jackpot! No, not just the jackpot, but the grand prize!"
It turns out that Ouyang Yun is also a lottery enthusiast, and since he understood the importance of money, he has bought at least 10,000 lottery tickets. He always dreamed of becoming rich overnight and living an ideal life. Unexpectedly, his unfulfilled dream in the 21st century came true in the 20th century. Although the price of this lottery ticket is a bit expensive - according to internal news, the cost of crossing once is 320 million, but thinking that it's public money, it seems that this lottery ticket was picked up for free.
Facing this prize that fell from the sky, someone's inferior roots were thoroughly exposed. He was seen dancing with joy and shouting: "I'm going to explode, my old self has finally burst out, hahaha!"
Cars, apartments, mistresses, top-of-the-line laptops - all these words symbolizing decadence and indulgence sprouted up in his mind like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.
Later, the cheongsam hanging in front of the bed caught his eye, finally pulling him back from the endless fantasy to reality - the reality is that Ouyang Yun is actually a pretty good guy, otherwise, he wouldn't have had the chance to appear here. Is the special training group something anyone can join? What's the elimination rate for selecting one out of 100,000? Gradually, human nature slowly suppressed the brilliance of gold and silver - "Damn! Has the little man succeeded or what? In any case, I'm also a soldier, how could that certain Ouyang Yun say: 'Poverty cannot move me, wealth and rank cannot corrupt me', why am I so despicable?" This idea is quite noble, although it's nobly hypocritical.
"Maybe I'll donate another 18 million and build two more Hope Primary Schools, just call them 'Ouyang Yun Hope Primary School', haha!" This idea is quite vain, but it's a very real kind of vanity.
……
The brilliance of gold and silver is still very powerful, directly opening a skylight on his forehead, so the relaxed Ah Q thought that had been trained before jumped out and spread into a very colorful picture.
Finally, a powerful computer was placed in front of him, and he threw himself into it with enthusiasm, playing CS and World of Warcraft crazily. Once, Ouyang Yun had indeed thought that after retiring from the army, he would make a lot of money, buy the best-configured computer, install the widest bandwidth, and then play CS and World of Warcraft crazily for a year!
Although this idea is decadent, it's absolutely true. If not for this damn transmigration, he might have lived like this for a year or two in the future.
After a long while, the blood slowly cooled down, and the young man gradually understood his true situation. The money was indeed a lot, but the computer was impossible to buy - he restored everything in the room to its original state, turned off the lights, lay down in the female ghost's nest, and then remembered that pair of chopsticks that made him laugh and cry.
Without this pair of nunchucks, he definitely wouldn't have had a chance at getting this award.
"Space-time coordinates" thing he had seen, a black and shiny stick with a seam in the middle, when used, it would become transparent from top to bottom.
It is said that the purpose of this time-space traversal experiment is to accurately measure the energy required for time-space shuttle, in other words, how much energy is needed to traverse a certain distance in time and space. Before him, this experiment had been conducted seven times, one of which ended in direct failure, while the remaining six were officially declared as failures due to the target person not being retrieved.
But is that really the case? That strange isolation zone, which was previously rarely visited by people, has started to have people coming and going since the experiment began; also, at the preparation meeting the day before he crossed over, those old guys looked at him with such a weird gaze, and Old Chen even had a messy conversation with him:
"Ouyang Yun!"
"Arrived!"
"I heard your idol is Li Xiangyang?"
"Yes!"
"Great!"
Then Old Man Chen said something that was completely out of the blue: "You little brat, if I were forty years younger, this good thing would be mine!"
Is time-traveling a good thing? Think about Zhang Jiahui - he shuddered at the thought, feeling that he was still very lucky.
"Ouyang, have you ever heard the story of a butterfly and a hurricane? ... Don't be afraid to change history. If you can appear in the past, then history has already been changed. Do you understand what I mean?" The one who said this was Huang Huaming, also an old man, the chief designer of the time-travel project, known for his astonishing remarks.
This made him feel a bit silly, he had also read a few books on time-traveling, the romantic encounters of Xiang Zilong in "The Legend of Qin" had given him wet dreams for about half a year. Changing history seemed to be a taboo for time-travelers, but what about this guy?
The old man smiled, he really liked the young soldier in front of him. The young man was not only young and strong, but also had good skills, and his cultural foundation was not weak either. His knowledge of language and science was very solid, and it was said that he even had a bit of an angry youth! If such a young man really appeared in China in the 1920s or 1930s, the course of world history would have been changed. Unfortunately, that period of history has already passed, and even if he could really go back to China in the 1920s or 1930s, the future of that world would only move towards another parallel space-time, rather than reflecting on modern times. It's like a drop of water in a vast ocean - no matter how insignificant this drop is, as long as it exists, the ocean is already not the same as before - this is what they call the theory of parallel universes. Now he only hopes that the China that will be created in parallel can have a brighter future, which is also a kind of Ah Q spirit.
Very noble Ah Q spirit.
These things that happened a few days ago are already decades-old memories for Ouyang Yun.
He let out a sigh and thought: Perhaps, the space-time coordinates have been tested, otherwise, those words from the two old men are really inexplicable. It seems that they want me to resist Japan, and the two old folks actually think highly of me! He smiled bitterly, but his eyes gradually became sharp, September 18th Incident, July 7th Incident, Nanjing Massacre... too many historical terms, too much blood debt, too oppressive a burden. As a soldier born with the mission to defend his country, since he has the good fortune to come to this era, there is no reason for him to stand by and do nothing! Now, he finally understands what Old Man Chen meant - this is indeed a "good thing", young people of the same generation can only kill those labeled as "Japanese devils" in games, but he can face them with real guns and bullets, even if it means sacrificing himself, it's worth it!
A loud "bang bang" at the door suddenly rang out, interrupting his thoughts.
"Ouyang brother! Open the door!" Chen Jiayao's voice.
He didn't move, he just perked up his right ear.
"Isn't he here?" A strange male voice.
"The door is locked from the inside."
"Are you asleep?"
The knocking sound continued for a while, and the male voice said: "What a pity! I was thinking of having a fight with him!"
"You're always fighting and killing all day!" Chen Jiayao scolded, very intimately.
The man chuckled twice, very silly. He should be her boyfriend, and seems to be a good fighter too.
Ouyang Yun's right ear twitched twice, and after they left, he adjusted his breathing and entered a state of contemplation. Since he had come, he might as well make the best of it, but no matter how he thought about it now, it was all in vain. This world was really unfamiliar to him, and he didn't know what kind of expectations the two old men had for him - to change this country with his own strength? What an unrealistic idea! Maybe, surviving first was the most realistic thing to do - that was his only thought now.
