Chapter 730: Human Life is at Stake
Gu Xue was invited to give an expert lecture at University A.
He studied abroad in his early years. After returning to China, he devoted himself to protecting cultural relics. He worked on the front line for a long time and had many experiences of fighting wits and courage with tomb robbers and cultural relic smugglers.
The students listened with great interest and responded enthusiastically.
After a lecture, Ye Rou offered water: "Director Gu, your lecture was really great."
Gu Xue took the water, moistened his dry throat, and waved his hand, saying, "These are nothing."
He secretly glanced at Xi Zhou, and seeing that no one was paying attention, he put his hand to his mouth and said in a low voice: "When I was young, in order to cooperate with the police to catch tomb robbers, I went undercover for a while and actually went down to an ancient tomb."
Ye Rou's eyes widened. "Are you telling the truth? Did you see anything you shouldn't have seen?"
"That's not the case." Gu Xue thought of that experience and said, "Tomb robbery is really not a job for humans."
"I stayed in the deep mountains and forests for more than half a month, digging in the soil and running all over the mountains with an engineer shovel. I was young and still had good physical strength, but I only managed to get through it by gritting my teeth."
"In the end, we only found a small tomb from the Qing Dynasty. It wasn't waterproofed properly, and the coffin was broken by rain. Bones were scattered all over the ground, and there were no burial objects."
Ye Rou was disappointed when she heard this.
Her expression was written all over her face, making it easy to guess. Gu Xue smoothed his beard and chuckled, "Monsters and demons are all made up by humans. Ultimately, the most terrifying thing is actually human imagination."
Seeing that the little girl was still a little depressed, Gu Xue hurriedly said, "The museum will open tomorrow. I invite you and your family to visit. Here are ten tickets."
A stack of yellow tickets was handed to Ye Rou.
Ye Rou took it and was about to take a closer look when Gu Xue urged her to hide it: "Why do you want to hide it?"
Gu Xue smiled and said, "There are so many people coming to the opening that the tickets have already been snapped up. These are the only few I have kept for myself. Don't tell anyone else. Principal Ji just asked for them, but I didn't give them to him."
Speak of the devil, and Ji Chunming came over with a smile: "Director Gu, the students' reaction is very good."
The ancient student was afraid that Ji Chunming would ask him for tickets again, so he excused himself and said, "Principal Ji, the museum will open tomorrow, and I have a lot to do. I'll leave first."
Ji Chunming expressed his understanding and watched Guxue leave.
As the person left, he turned his head to Ye Rou and said, "Give me a ticket."
Ye Rou held the small bag containing the tickets and said in a dumbfounded tone, "What tickets?"
"Don't play dumb." Ji Chunming glared at the little girl: "I saw it all."
“…”
Seeing that she couldn't fool him, Ye Rou took out a ticket and handed it to him, muttering:
"You're the principal of a school after all, how come you have so much free time to join in this kind of fun?"
Ji Chunming took the ticket without hesitation and carefully put it into his wallet before saying, "I'm doing this for your aunt."
Ye Rou: "My aunt?"
During this period, she didn't see Principal Ji contact her aunt, and she thought that Principal Ji had let it go.
Ji Chunming boasted a little: "A few days ago, your aunt called me."
Ye Rou expressed doubts about this.
Seeing that she didn't believe him, Ji Chunming said unhappily: "I'm serious. Although you asked me about Uncle Tang, this is also a signal."
"What signal?" Ye Rou asked curiously.
"Of course it's with..." Ji Chunming paused, "Don't ask around, kid."
Ye Rou protested: "I'm married, not a child."
Ji Chunming did not hesitate to dismantle the show:
"Jiang Chen called me before he left. He was worried that you might get hurt, so he asked me to keep an eye on you."
"To be honest, that boy doesn't look like your husband, he looks more like your father."
Ye Rou was speechless, angry and embarrassed, and left angrily.
After walking quite a distance, Ji Chunming reminded her: "Remember to take your aunt to the museum!"
Nonsense, do you even need to tell me that?
Ye Rou was too lazy to talk to him and stomped her feet and left.
Besides Wang Honghong, Zhou Liang also came to pick her up today. From a distance, she could see his chubby body circling around the side door of the car.
Seeing Ye Rou, Zhou Liang immediately rushed over excitedly, repeatedly saying: "Sister-in-law, help!"
"What's wrong?" Ye Rou saw that he was sweating profusely, thinking that something serious had happened, and hurriedly said, "Tell me slowly."
"Human life is at stake, sister-in-law, you are the only one who can help me!"
Upon hearing that it was a matter of life and death, Ye Rou did not dare to delay, quickly got into the car, and urged Wang Honghong to drive.
…
Ye Rou had a blank expression on her face: "Is this what you mean by life and death?"
The golden little chicks, the size of a palm, circled around the three people's legs, chirping non-stop.
Zhou Liangzheng nodded emphatically: "These are the chickens my mother collected from the surrounding areas."
"It was fine when I bought it, but it suddenly started to act weird these past two days. Sister-in-law, you're a doctor, so could you please take a look?"
Ye Rou couldn't stand it any longer and gave him a slap: "I'm a Chinese medicine doctor, not a veterinarian!"
Wang Honghong enjoyed watching the fun and clapped her hands, saying, "Well done!" She even took advantage of the chaos to kick Zhou Liang in the butt.
In the end, Ye Rou still looked at it.
"There's no other problem. It's just that the bottom of the nest is too damp. It will be fine if we put a few more layers of hay." Ye Rou covered her nose, her face looking ugly because of the chicken shit.
Hearing her say this, Zhou Liang breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sister-in-law, if it weren't for you, something terrible would have happened to my family."
Wang Honghong was speechless: "If a few chicks die, just buy some new ones. What's the big deal?"
"You don't know." Zhou Liang said with a bitter face, "Just because of these brats, my wife and my mother had a lot of fights!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of cursing suddenly rang out outside.
Hearing the voice that sounded like Aunt Zhou's, the three of them hurried out.
