Chapter 6 Being a professor doesn't seem bad either

  As more and more chickens joined the chorus of crowing, the sky gradually brightened up, the dark night finally passed, and light descended upon the world. However, for this young couple in the "Ghost House", the arrival of daytime didn't change anything. The intense struggle had exhausted both people's physical strength, they were both extremely tired, only relying on a strong will to hold on.

  Bai Liuxu and Su Yan's eyelids had been fighting for a long time, and Ouyang Yun was no longer in the mood. The woman buried her head in her own shoulders, not even bothering to say anything sarcastic. If things went on like this, it wouldn't be good. Such entanglement would lead to starvation - if she really died in this way and then fossilized in this posture, who knew how later generations would view her? If she unfortunately became a fossil, wouldn't that be infamous for ten thousand years?! Ouyang Yun's gaze inadvertently swept over the earthworm near at hand, and she felt a chill in her heart. She tentatively asked: "How about making a deal?"

  White Stream Su did not make a sound.

  "The death of the Northeast Tiger, I'm also sad about it, but shouldn't it be counted on my head?"

  Shen Jian lay nearby, his body already stiff and cold, the wound on his head congealed, unspeakably terrifying. Bai Liangsu remembered how just a few hours ago he was still protecting himself, covering himself to escape, but now they were separated by life and death, his heart feeling like it had been bitten by a poisonous insect, tears streaming out as he hoarsely shouted: "You treacherous dog, stop pretending! If you hadn't led the Japanese here, Big Brother Shen wouldn't have died——"

  "Traitor to the Han Chinese, who are you cursing? If I'm a traitor, then there aren't many good people in all of China."

  "I don't care, if you hadn't moved here, none of this would have happened."

  "You're really good at twisting words, this should be the Chen family's property, right? The Chen family asked me to move here! Hey, if I'm not mistaken, you have two accomplices who died outside, if the police see us, we can't escape the relationship."

  "Hmph - it's all the same if we die together. With you buried with me, I'll consider it a way to help my brother get his revenge!"

  Ouyang Yun's face turned gloomy, and he thought of someone's words. For the first time, he felt a sense of resonance - "In this world, only women and petty men are difficult to raise." His gaze swept over those several sacks, his eyes rolled, and he had an idea. He said, "But these sacks, ah."

  Bai Liu Su turned her head and looked at those several sacks of rice, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, as if thinking of something.

  Ouyang Yun was waiting for this moment, and immediately exerted himself to try to turn over. However, as soon as he moved, the girl also moved, and at this point, she didn't relax her vigilance at all. As a result, the two people were entwined again in a death struggle, exhausting the bit of energy they had just accumulated, and both started panting heavily once more.

  Suddenly, a footstep was heard in the yard, followed by an exclamation - "Ah!" Two people were shocked and held their breath in unison, listening intently. Then, Ouyang Yun opened his mouth and laughed with joy.

  It was Chen Jiayao and her boyfriend who came.

  "Heavenly song, it's too scary, so many dead people."

  "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

  "Shall we call the police?"

  "Stop, don't call the police, Jia Yao! I'm inside, you guys come in quickly!" Ouyang Yun shouted loudly as soon as he heard them wanting to call the police.

  "Ouyang, big brother?" Chen Jiayao's trembling voice seemed to be quite frightened. Two people walked in, and when Chen Jiayao saw the situation inside, she didn't even last long enough to see her Ouyang big brother for a second before she fainted from fright. Her boyfriend, Chu Tiange, had some guts, facing a room full of corpses without any fear, quickly embracing her. However, when his gaze fell on the two people entwined together, he was stunned - his mouth agape, almost able to fit a large egg: "You...". He stuttered, his face flushing red, seemingly unable to think of what to say next.

  Ouyang Yun and Bai Li Su's current posture is very charming and ambiguous, indeed it can evoke the imagination.

  Ouyang Yun coughed twice, pretending not to see his expression, and said: "My name is Ouyang Yun, I'm a friend of Jiayao's. Are you her boyfriend?"

  "Yes, I'm Chu Tiange, Ouyang brother, what's this?"

  Chen Jiayao slowly woke up, and all she saw was bloodstains and corpses. Frightened, she immediately buried her head in Chu Tiange's arms. Then, she plucked up the courage to look back, and that was when she saw Ouyang Yun with a crying face. Seeing him tightly embracing a woman, her face turned red, and she once again buried her head in her boyfriend's arms, repeatedly urging him to hurry up and leave.

  Don't look at me with disrespect!

  Ouyang Yun knew they had misunderstood, and couldn't help but laugh and cry: "What kind of eyes do you have? I almost got killed by her! Quickly help me get rid of this woman, Jia Yao, do you know her?"

  Chu Tian Ge's mouth finally closed, but his eyes widened in shock. After a while, he took a closer look at the two people and was surprised to see their situation, causing his mouth to open again in an "O" shape. Chen Jia Yao peeked out from her boyfriend's arms, gathered courage to take another look, and finally understood what was going on. Her gaze accidentally fell on the corpse on the ground, and her face turned pale as she muttered: "Ou Yang Ge, how did it end up like this?"

  Ouyang Yun suddenly remembered something important and said to Chu Tian Ge, "Are there dead people outside too? Hurry up and bring them inside. Wait, I'll tell you what's going on later."

  Chu Tian Ge said: "There is a car at the door, and two dead people in the yard."

  "Close the gate, bring the dead man inside quickly."

  Chu Tian Ge carried Chen Jia Yao out, this kid's guts are big enough, and soon he backed the two male corpses into the house. Ouyang Yun saw that the dead were all wearing blue shirts and pants, knowing they were from the Northeast Tiger gang, so yesterday's people, regardless of whether they were dead or alive, were now accounted for, and the possibility of leaking secrets was finally ruled out, and he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

  Bai Liuxu saw that Ou Yang Yun was a familiar face, and his expression immediately changed. He opened his mouth several times to bite him, but was dodged each time. She had long been resigned to her fate, thinking that even if she died, she could be with Shen Ge together. So she gave up resisting, allowing Chu Tian Ge to tie her up, and coldly said: "You can kill me now!"

  Ouyang Yun didn't have time to bother with her, so he threw her onto the bed, stabbed a knife into the heart of the unconscious ninja, put away all the steel needles, then pulled out Chu Tiange and called Chen Jiaoyao into his room. He told her everything that had happened last night, including the part about the hemp sack.

  Chen Jiayao's face turned pale with fright, and she exclaimed repeatedly. After a long while, her emotions finally stabilized, and she noticed the scars on his face. "You're injured, are you okay?"

  "That woman hit you, didn't she?" Ouyang Yun touched his right forehead, where a scab had already formed.

  "It shouldn't be."

  Since seeing Bai Li Su's face clearly, Chu Tian Ge's expression started to be off. At this time, she said: "Why do I feel like she looks like someone?"

  "Feng Huang?" Ouyang Yun still didn't know Wú Yán Nǚ's name.

  Chu Tian Ge slapped his thigh and exclaimed: "I remember now! There's a wanted poster of her in the city, she's a notorious thief!"

  "A great thief?! Her?!" Ouyang Yun curled her lips, somewhat disbelieving.

  Chu Tian Ge was excited, "Take her to the police station? One thousand silver coins!"

  Chen Jiayao's little heart was racing, her pale face looked very haggard, and she worriedly said: "So many people have died, what can we do?"

  "Awesome!"

  "Cold mix?!"

  "Haha, I'll take care of this, you guys just keep it a secret. This big thief, I won't hand her over. Since the Japanese devils want to kill her, she must be a good person. As for the police now, haha, I don't think they represent justice!"

  Chu Tian Ge applauded and shouted "good", loudly saying: "Ouyang big brother, I like to hear this! Let's do it as you said. Thank you for saving Jia Yao, yesterday we came to find you, wanting to thank you in person, but you weren't there——" He leaned close to Ouyang Yun's ear and whispered: "Ouyang big brother, are you a Communist Party member?"

  Ouyang Yun was taken aback: "Why say that?"

  "Who else besides the Communist Party dares to play with the Japanese like this?"

  "I just got back from America. Oh dear, I'm so hungry, shall we go have breakfast first?"

  After drinking two bowls of soy milk and eating a basket of steamed buns, Ouyang Yun leaned back in her chair and said, "I'm finally feeling a bit better."

  Chu Tian Ge had finished eating early and asked at this time: "Ouyang big brother, you grew up in the US since childhood, shouldn't you have American citizenship?"

  "American citizenship? Am I crazy? As a proud descendant of the Yellow Emperor, why would I want to become an American? Ugh, I hate those yellow-skinned bananas the most!"

  Chu Tian Ge and Chen Jia Yao stared at each other, apparently neither of them understood the relationship between bananas, America, and Chinese people.

  Ouyang Yun said with a good mood at the moment: "Americans are white people, right? We Chinese have yellow skin. Think about it, we have American goods in our bellies, isn't that like bananas, yellow on the outside and white on the inside?"

  Chu Tian Ge's eyes lit up, and he slammed the table, shouting: "Gao, Ouyang brother! Listening to your words is better than reading books for ten years!" He glanced at Chen Jia Yao and said: "Ah, but I don't know why, there are still people in China who want to be bananas?" As soon as he finished speaking, he let out a loud cry of "Ahh".

  Ouyang Yun saw Chen Jiaoyao's hand pinched on his waist and smiled.

  Chu Tian Ge is nearly one meter eight in height, looks very sturdy, with spirited eyes, looking like a martial arts practitioner. However, in the face of Xin ***'s "waist pinching hand", no matter what kind of hero or good man, it seems that only begging for mercy is left.

  Chen Jiayao scolded him, and some color returned to his face. She asked Ouyang Yun what he planned to do next. The girl was meticulous, and in her opinion, Ouyang Yun had already gotten himself into a deadly lawsuit, so it seemed inappropriate for him to stay in Beiping City any longer.

  Ouyang Yun didn't care, a chaotic world has its own advantages. He didn't think it was a big deal to kill a few Japanese people with ulterior motives in this world order. "First find a school to learn the country's characters, and then, becoming a professor doesn't seem bad either."

  His words are not groundless, to be a butterfly that can stir up a storm, at least you have to gather a group of small butterflies around you first, and then the big and small butterflies flap their wings together.

  "Go to school? Be a professor?" Chen Jiaoyao's eyes widened, and after a long while, she blinked; Chu Tiange's mouth opened wide again, and his chin almost fell onto the table. Both of them were college students, surrounded by famous teachers, so they naturally had a series of cognitive standards for professors - this person in front of them, not to mention that he didn't have any qualities that could be associated with professors, even seemingly unrelated to lower-level teachers, which left them utterly astonished?!

  "Yes, what? Is there something wrong?"

  "No, no," Chen and Chu suddenly wanted to laugh, wanted to laugh loudly, but looking at each other's expressionless face, they blinked a few times and couldn't laugh out loud - for some reason, they felt that the person in front of them didn't seem like the kind who would brazenly tell lies (someone said: this is natural, because his shamelessness was beyond human measurement). Chen Jiaoyu asked: "So which university did you graduate from? Harvard? Stanford? Or Yale?"

  Harbin Logistics Engineering University

  "What's your major? I've never heard of it, can you show me your diploma?"

  Ouyang Yun furrowed his brow, this thing was in his previous file, and now it's still unknown which file cabinet it's locked in decades later, but there's no way to retrieve it. "I'll just go to school first, which university in Beijing has looser student management?"

  "This is a strange question. Chen and Chu couldn't keep up with his train of thought at all. The former thought for a moment and said, 'If we're talking about management, our school should be the most relaxed. Our principal is very open-minded.'"

  "Who is Sutu Leiden?"

  "Do you know?"

  "I've heard of it," said Ouyang Yun with a smack of her lips. "Then let's go to Yenching University."

  Two people saw him full of confidence, Chen Jiayao tentatively said: "The entrance examination questions of our university are very difficult."

  "It's not that I'm afraid of difficulty," Ouyang Yun said with a smile, thinking to herself that as an outstanding student from a military academy in the 21st century, who had been known as a genius since childhood, if she couldn't even get into an ordinary university in the 1930s, then she might as well jump into the Yangtze River.

  Chen Jiayao saw that he was so confident and didn't want to crush his confidence, saying: "Our school's entrance exam is usually set in July, now it's only April, well, I'll try to get a set of last year's test questions for you to review."

  "Thanks," Ouyang Yun smiled and said: "For a while, I want to go out for a stroll. By the way, about what happened in the yard, don't tell anyone."

  "Don't worry about this."

  Chen Jiayao thought of those dead people and her face turned pale again.

  "Chu Tian Song: 'Ouyang big brother, thank you again for saving Jia Yao.'"

  "It's a small case"

  "Little case?"

  "It's just a small token."

  "Oh, Ou Yang's English is pretty good."

  "That's because we're back in America!"
