Chapter 1: The Heroic Rescue in a Different World

Zhang Da, being the leader, is well-experienced and knowledgeable. Although he is equally shocked, he makes a decisive choice. Instinctively, he draws his pistol, opens the car door, raises his hand, and fires, shouting with a fierce yet cowardly tone: "Whether you are a god or a ghost, I will still take your life!"

Not yet, but—" As the topic was brought up, the timid Chen Jiayao suddenly became assertive, filled with indignation, resembling a passionate youth, and exclaimed: "It should be soon, the three northeastern provinces have already fallen, and the central government is passively resisting the Japanese invasion. Alas, North China is in peril, China is in peril! By the way, Mr. Ouyang, thank you once again for saving me. I am Chen Jiayao—if you need any assistance in the future, please feel free to come to me—"

The Chen Jiayao case has been under surveillance for over two months. The motive is quite simple: to kidnap and extort money from the Chen family. The Chen family owns several shops in Beiping and operates a textile factory in Hebei, making them quite wealthy

Zhao Si also began to invest in stocks, which made his heart feel as if it were twisted into a knot

Ouyang Yun peered through the perforated wall, listened intently for a while, and confirmed that everyone outside had left. He sat down abruptly and muttered to himself, "Yanjing University?! How come I didn't know there was such a school? Could it be that I have really crossed over this time?" He looked up at the sky, a strange expression on his face

Thus, if the beautiful moment were to end without further context, it would leave only three parts of anger and seven parts of helpless laughter.

Chen Jiayao was startled, thinking that he was injured, and felt somewhat anxious: "Hey, are you okay?"

In two minutes, countless particles that vanished before this "crowd" combined to form Ouyang Yun, appearing before another crowd with a flash of lightning

His body was disintegrated into billions of black particles, vanishing before the crowd

The four tigers of Beiping, along with their vehicle, were taken away by the police and military police, and the night gradually returned to its previous silence. Chen Jiayao's eyes had fully adapted to the dark environment, and with the light from the street lamp, she could see the face in front of her clearly. This was clearly a young man, with sharp facial features, large bright eyes, and lips that were always slightly curled. His teeth were as white as ivory. However, his clothing was somewhat peculiar, a mix of green with other colors, and there was a hole in his chest and abdomen—exactly where the bullets had struck repeatedly—but he seemed unscathed? This was clearly a young man, with sharp facial features, large bright eyes, and lips that were always slightly curled. His teeth were as white as ivory. However, his clothing was somewhat peculiar, a mix of green with other colors, and there was a hole in his chest and abdomen—exactly where the bullets had struck repeatedly—but he seemed unscathed? Was he truly invulnerable as the legends said? She wanted to open her mouth to ask, but seeing him raise a finger to his lips, she held back and bit her teeth.

Chen Jiayao noticed his gaze was fixed and thought that it must be late at night. As a young woman alone with a man, and given the man's peculiar demeanor, she felt uneasy about the possibility of his ill intentions. She dared not dwell on it and only wanted to leave immediately, saying, "Thank you for saving me, I will return to my dormitory." After glancing at him and receiving no response, she turned to leave. However, recalling that he had saved her and that she did not even know his name, she stopped and said, "Sir, thank you once again for saving me. May I ask your esteemed name?"

What is infuriating is that I have been played; as for the feeling of being at a loss for words, it is because I recall the words of that old fellow Chen, who has two stars on his epaulettes: "Ouyang, I really like you. Well, let me give you a gift—what gift? You will know when you come over, I guarantee you will like it"

The most famous and handsome Zhao Zilong is the first, followed by the most skilled Zhao Jun, and then the oldest Huang Lin... Among the seven former comrades, the one who suffered the most is Zhang Jiahui. Although it is just a rumor, Ouyang Yun believes it to be true—he didn't even have the chance to disappear, but was directly separated by an extremely strong magnetic field, turning a good person into a pile of dust

There are a total of 8 people in their group, and now, it is finally the turn of the youngest, Ouyang Yun

"Bang!" Damn it, Beiping Four Dogs, do you also have your day today?

Indeed, he enjoys wielding nunchaku, but that is under the premise of no war. In this chaotic world, he does not believe that a pair of nunchaku can stand against the Japanese Type 38 rifle

Hurry up! Zhang Da, familiar with the temperament of his younger brother, spat at him and shouted.

Beneath the pitch-black night sky, a quaint garden is dotted with lights, twinkling like stars. Outside the main entrance of the garden lies a street, where the houses across the road stand in silence, their faces shrouded in darkness. A few street lamps line the roadside, flickering listlessly with a dim yellow glow

Goodbye? ! '' Chen Jiayao silently repeated this strange word in her mind, feeling a bit puzzled as she walked away slowly

Hu San smiled, a lewd kind of smile, just as he was about to shove the girl into the car with Zhao Si, suddenly, a bolt of lightning struck down from the sky

Isn't Beiping just Beijing? Goodness, this is quite a choice for a time travel location—1935, isn't that during the Anti-Japanese War? Now, is Beijing occupied by the Japanese? Ouyang Yun pondered, beginning to regret not studying diligently during the special training, as the cultural courses in the special training focused primarily on historical knowledge.

Chen Jiayao walked briskly down the street, her flat leather shoes making intimate contact with the cobblestones, producing a crisp "tap tap" sound—especially jarring in the stillness of the night

In this world, there are not so many "ifs," just as there is no such thing as a remedy for regret— the precise duration is a little over two minutes. During this time, Ouyang Yun's thoughts were severed, just as his body was; he lost all sensation, and physically, it was no different from being dead

Only "you all", with no further context, a handkerchief covered her mouth, and she only felt a fragrance at her nose, then the entire world plunged into darkness

The name "Four Tigers of Beiping" is quite good, but these four individuals are indeed notorious rascals, engaging in activities such as robbery, kidnapping, and extortion. Therefore, in the mouths of many, they are referred to as the "Four Evils of Beiping"

You. "Chen Jiayao, seeing that he had not spoken for a long time, mustered the courage to poke him with her hand and said: 'Mr. Ouyang, thank you so much today. I, I will head back to the dormitory now.'"

But now, they all thought in unison: Has heaven finally become angry and sent down celestial soldiers and generals?!

The sound of running outside the courtyard wall grew louder, accompanied by the flickering light of flashlights. Some of the military police and police officers recognized the Four Tigers of Beiping and immediately shouted, "It is the Four Evils of Beiping!"

Chen Jiayao clutched her chest, thinking to herself that this person actually knew about the Gregorian calendar, which did not seem like something someone from a secluded paradise would know. The more she thought, the more confused she became, so she simply gave up and said irritably: "Why are you so jumpy? This is Beiping, and we are currently at Yanjing University. I am studying here."

Ouyang Yun then noticed her, recalled his task, stood up and said: "I apologize for forgetting you." He asked: "Miss, may I ask what year it is now?"

1935. This time the eyes did not blink, they began to roll back, and the body started to sway

Postmodern humor is beyond Chen Jiayao's understanding; her face inexplicably flushed, and she felt a mix of embarrassment and anger, thinking to herself: I'm not even fat, hmph.

This question was even more perplexing. Chen Jiayao blinked and carefully examined his clothes, then noticed the strange bag he was carrying. She couldn't help but wonder: could he be a wild man who had jumped out from some mountain, isolated from the world for many years? Yes, that is a possibility; otherwise, how could he be impervious to knives and guns? She thought to herself, rather self-importantly, and replied earnestly: "The 24th year of the Republic of China." Yes, that is a possibility; otherwise, how could he be impervious to knives and guns? She thought to herself, rather self-importantly, and replied earnestly: "The 24th year of the Republic of China."

It now appears that this gift is actually a pair of nunchaku

This girl is quite nice. Hu San, feeling a bit dazed, pinched Chen Jiayao's face, the touch delicate, and with a gulp in his throat, a wave of heat surged through his body. Whenever he saw a beautiful woman, he would have this reaction, a wonderful feeling

Later, she understood the true cause of her palpitations. The roar of a car engine rushed towards her from behind, and she instinctively sidestepped, turning around.

Chen Jiayao stood up, feeling perplexed, and said softly: "Thank you"

The three gunshots shattered the silence of the night, awakening Ouyang Yun, who was still pondering, "If only I could..."

He had a beautiful vision, but unfortunately, there always seems to be a slight difference between reality and imagination. Therefore, after he twisted it, he was unable to summon the powerful magnetic field of the time machine, and instead, he merely twisted the "time-space coordinates" into two segments—connected by a thin iron chain, resembling a pair of nunchaku.

Hu San, the most lecherous and greedy, committed the most misdeeds, yet he was also the most afraid of ghosts and deities. His legs immediately went weak, and he stammered, "Ghost, there is a ghost!" Suddenly, his eyes rolled back, and he fainted just like that

Chen Jiayao had never experienced anything like this, feeling both exhilarated and frightened, gasping repeatedly along the way. Ouyang Yun, fearing she might cry out, said: "I am not a bad person." He gently placed her on the ground and turned back, saying: "You have lost weight." He smiled broadly.

Ouyang Yun's mind was in a state of confusion—no wonder, as he had originally prepared himself for sacrifice, yet now he found himself alive and in this very special era. It was inevitable that he felt a mix of emotions, fluctuating between joy and sorrow. Hearing her inquiry, he casually replied, "My name is Ouyang Yun." Suddenly, he recalled the scene from the previous night's gathering and the words he had spoken while intoxicated. A surge of boldness welled up within him, and he blurted out, "So, is Beiping currently occupied by the Japanese devils?"

Upon entering that metallic structure, Ouyang Yun never imagined he would come out alive. Nonsense about time travel; to put it bluntly, it is nothing but a death sentence. This time travel experiment has been conducted seven times, and seven of his comrades have perished, but has anyone ever returned?

After a short while, he found the "spacetime coordinates." The "spacetime coordinates" were rod-shaped, approximately 2 feet long and about 5 to 6 centimeters thick, made of an unknown material, and felt somewhat heavy in his hand. He held one end in each hand and gently twisted it as practiced beforehand, thinking to himself that he could be considered the first person to complete the traversal, wondering what could be added to his shoulder insignia, if only...

Two strong men named Hu San and Zhao Si are in the front seats of the car, accompanied by their sworn brothers Zhang Da and Chen Er. The four of them share a common nickname in the city of Beiping: "The Four Tigers of Beiping"

Thud! Ouyang Yun fell backward, executing a standard backward fall as practiced in military training. Then, he sprang up like a carp leaping out of water, startling Chen Jiayao once again. "So, where is this place?"

At that moment, distant sounds of whistles, running, and voices reached him, prompting him to recall his mission and begin to doubt whether he had already crossed over. Meeting Chen Jiayao's surprised gaze, he stepped forward and whispered, "Don't make a sound." He lifted her onto his shoulder and charged towards the wall on his right. As he approached, he leaped powerfully, rising about half a meter, and with his feet, he kicked off the wall in quick succession, ascending another half meter. He extended his left hand to grasp the edge of the wall, pulling himself up with force while simultaneously pushing off with his feet, bringing her up to the ledge. He crouched slightly and then jumped down.

The streetlights resemble a group of clowns, stretching and compressing her shadow, passing it among one another

In the moment just before the beam of light descended from above, he thought to himself: if I were to be content with being a medic, if I were to...

Ouyang Yun felt somewhat awkward upon encountering such a timid "East Turkestan element" for the first time, and he was quite frustrated that the other party did not give him the opportunity to showcase his skills. Shortly thereafter, he found it strange—the vehicle in front of him appeared peculiar, resembling an antique, and the attire of the four individuals was also odd. Looking at the young girl, he noticed that she was wearing clothing he had only seen on television, with a jacket on top and a long skirt below—could it be that these people were acting? He glanced around at the old buildings, reminiscent of the ancient alleys in Beijing.

... ...

The so-called "Another Crowd" actually consists of only five individuals: the Four Tigers of Beiping and Chen Jiayao

Tied up, tied up!

1935

Before joining the special training team, Ouyang Yun felt very excited and honored, but now, all that remains is confusion and anger

"The situation in North China is critical, and China is in peril." Ouyang Yun looked at the young girl before him, who was, in fact, his elder. Although her expression was very sincere, he couldn't help but feel that these eight words were laden with drama, and a hint of amusement arose in his heart

Terrorist?! Ouyang Yun, wearing a bulletproof vest, was only pushed back two steps by the three shots that hit his chest and abdomen. Having participated in the training base for the East Turkestan militants, a thought flashed through his mind, invigorating his spirit; he no longer needed any regret medicine, and he had no idea where he had 'traveled' to. His right hand swiftly drew the gun from the holster strapped to his thigh, disengaged the safety, and a red line shot out, directly hitting the center of Zhang Da's forehead. He shouted loudly: "Surrender your weapon—do not kill!"

What is the Gregorian calendar date for the 24th year of the Republic of China? This time, it was Ouyang Yun's turn to blink.

The Four Tigers of Beiping were once atheists, and they boldly proclaimed in front of the suffering master: "I am not afraid of gods, so why should I fear the ghosts you have become?"

Compared to the Four Tigers of Beiping, Chen Jiayao is undoubtedly fortunate; she fainted and did not witness this rather ghastly scene

With a sharp sound, the car suddenly came to a stop beside her without any warning, the piercing scream startling her heart into an inexplicable violent tremor—"Bang!" The back door opened, and two burly men emerged, unceremoniously grabbing her by the arms, one on the left and one on the right—"Ah!" she instinctively screamed, "You guys—"

This "crowd" refers to the people in front of the computer screens in the laboratory. Among this "crowd," an elderly man in his sixties excitedly shouted, "Success!" and then took the lead in applauding.

Let go of me, damn it—

Oh. Ouyang Yun curled his lips, a smile revealing a hint of bitterness. Remembering that he had already clarified the era, he considered this task completed and said: "Alright, then goodbye"

The Four Tigers of Beiping are actually luckier than her, after all, this scene is not something everyone can witness. If they lived in the same time and space as Ouyang Yun, and if they were trendy enough, they might exclaim: O! My God! Unfortunately, they were born several decades earlier, and they harbor secrets in their hearts; those who have committed too many wrongdoings always have ghosts in their hearts. The deadly part is that this ghost jumped out under the escort of lightning. Unfortunately, they were born several decades earlier, and they harbor secrets in their hearts; those who have committed too many wrongdoings always have ghosts in their hearts. The deadly part is that this ghost jumped out under the escort of lightning.

At this moment, both Zhang Da and Chen Er had fainted. The infrared beam emitted from Ouyang Yun's handgun was beyond their comprehension; in their eyes, it was a power only possessed by deities. They sensibly succumbed to unconsciousness.

Chen Jiayao was awakened by pain. After Hu San and Zhao Si were frightened into unconsciousness, she, without anyone to support her, bumped her head against the car, resulting in a bump on her forehead. When she regained consciousness, she heard a series of gunshots, which startled her. She could only think that her savior must have died, and everything went dark before her eyes, nearly causing her to faint again

The garden is a university—Yanjing University, where Chen Jiayao is studying. As the night deepens, the silence gradually becomes terrifying. Chen Jiayao is a timid girl—wandering outside alone at such a late hour is not her first time, but for some reason, this time the feeling of palpitations is particularly intense, even making her involuntarily recall the haunting incident in that abandoned courtyard. This thought intensifies her fear, causing her steps to quicken and her breathing to become heavier. The sound of her gasps gradually fills her ears, alternating with the sound of her footsteps, further amplifying the sensation of palpitations. It is not until she sees the large gate not far away that this feeling becomes somewhat more bearable.

He suddenly felt an urge to spit blood, his mouth opened wide, and as a result, he spat out a large mouthful of saliva

Watching her disappear into the darkness, Ouyang Yun looked around to ensure that no one was nearby. He took off his backpack, first took out a flashlight, turned it on, and then began rummaging through the bag.
