After Exhausting Myself to Death

Chapter 71: The Pearl Is Covered in Dust but Its Brilliance Cannot Be Obscured (23)

In the original plot, Yun Gouer was far from that outstanding. He just accidentally revealed his learning ability to Gu Wenjing, which was enough to make Gu Wenjing ecstatic.

But now Yun Gou'er has a good foundation of knowledge, like a gem that has been washed away from the mud, allowing him to shine brightly earlier.

In the original plot, Professor Gu didn't even have a role in Song Youcai when he accepted his apprentice. This was the glory that belonged to the protagonist alone. It was not until Yun Gouer agreed to come to Beijing that he begged Professor Gu to take Song Youcai away with him.

Yun Gou'er's talent was so shocking that the professors in Kyoto had to focus more on him for a long time. Yun Gou'er had a rich study plan every day and was led to see too many things. landscape.

Song Youcai, who also left his parents and went to Beijing at a young age, was unintentionally thrown into a situation of being left alone. Fortunately, he was smart enough and strong enough, and he slowly cheered up.

Slowly, the light belonging to Song Youcai was emitted.

Nowadays, the eleven children in Mutian Village are all shining gems. They don’t have to be so strong, and they don’t have to grit their teeth and endure the suffering and burn themselves.

Because someone had already picked the stars and made them into crowns, and placed them gently on their heads.

- So they are already glowing.

Professor Gu felt as if he had been hit by a pie falling from the sky, which made him unable to think about many things. He just wanted to pack up these children and take them away on the spot.

He didn't think children would disagree. Children at this age would always have endless yearning for the big world.

At most I can't bear to leave my family.

It doesn't matter. At worst, he will take their family to Kyoto. The children are still so young, so someone should take care of them.

Such young geniuses with unlimited potential should be well protected by adults like them when they grow up.

But Gu Wenjing didn't expect that these children uniformly showed disgust and vigilance. Not only did they not have any expectations for his words, but their eyes were full of wariness of human traffickers. Even the "squad leader" who seemed to him to be very calm was not afraid of human traffickers. His expression collapsed.

Yun Gou'er's conditioned reflex stretched out his hand, like an eagle catching a hen among its chicks, and took a step back to protect the chicks behind him.

He pursed his lips and said as politely and calmly as possible: "Thank you, but we don't want to go."

Even grandpa stopped calling.

Zhang Jingchang said anxiously: "Why? Only Kyoto can provide you with better conditions. You can't learn much here."

How can children allow outsiders to scold their village and question their teachers? Zhao Jun waved his fists: "Did I say you can't understand people? Don't think that I don't dare to hit you because you are so big."

"Zhao Jun." The two brothers Zhou Dazhuang and Zhou Xiaoya pulled him back with all their hands, and whispered: "Idiot, they have three adults. We can't beat them. The teacher said that we must outsmart them at this time."

But the sound wasn't that quiet, at least Gu Wenjing and the three people standing in front of them heard it.

Gu Wenjing finally regained some sense amidst their strong resistance. He suddenly remembered that he seemed to have heard of the location "Mutian Village".

"Little comrade, would you mind introducing your teacher to me?" Gu Wenjing was still pleasant.

This was a humble question. A normal person would say "I don't mind". Even if it was inconvenient to reveal too much, he would at least introduce his name.

However, the children of Mutian Village cannot think of themselves as ordinary people.

Yun Gouer's face darkened: "Who are you? Why do you want to inquire about our teacher?"

The students were already on guard, but as soon as Gu Wenjing's question came out, they looked at the three of them with a bit more disgust.

The commotion here was so loud that even if the people around were absorbed in it, they would have noticed it long ago. They all secretly paid attention to these children. They told Shen Minghuan that they would help watch over his students. This was not a polite statement.

Besides, who wouldn’t like a group of smart, well-behaved, diligent, and studious children who respect their teachers? Even if they are strangers, as adults who can be relied on, they have to take care of the children when they encounter problems.

"This old gentleman." The young man cupped his hands and said, "Don't be surprised. We have experienced it just now. These students pay special attention to their teacher's affairs."

The words were neutral and playful, but the protection of these children was unquestionable.

Zhang Jingchang hated the irony: "Silly boy, do you know who this old gentleman is? If I were you, I would quickly ask him to accept me as his student. I believe brother, you will have a different future."

The students glared at him, but the calm Yun Gou'er was the first to explode. He said loudly and sharply: "No, you bad guys, stay away from us, we have a teacher!"

“Just because you have a teacher doesn’t mean you can’t have other teachers.”

Why are these three people so annoying!

Yun Gou'er was about to scold back when he suddenly realized that the voice just now was gentle and calm, unhurried, with a slight smile, and the timbre and intonation were very familiar to them.

The students turned their heads.

Others also turned to look at the sound.

Shen Minghuan crossed the threshold, raised his eyes to meet the eyes of everyone in the library, and smiled softly.

"teacher!"

The children shouted in unison and ran towards Shen Minghuan. The quick ones spread their arms and hugged Shen Minghuan's legs, while the slow ones stretched out their hands to grab the corner of his clothes through the gap between people.

"Teacher, teacher..."

The children shouted one after another, not knowing what they were saying. They just felt a kind of unspeakable grievance in their hearts, and when this person came, this grievance could no longer be suppressed.

They liked Shen Minghuan, and they only wanted Shen Minghuan to be their teacher.

Not only because this person was good to them, but also because they could really feel their own progress.

They could clearly feel that they were getting better bit by bit, and they could clearly realize that their lives were changing slowly and firmly.

No one could resist this temptation.

It's just that the students had not realized it before, and once someone tried to take them away from the teacher, the panic in their hearts suddenly broke out.

They held Shen Minghuan tightly, as if they were holding a rare treasure that could not be lost, with tears in their eyelashes and pitiful, and those who didn't know would think they had just escaped from the mouth of a dragon.

Shen Minghuan ruthlessly pried their fingers apart: "I warn you, don't rub your tears and snot on my clothes, otherwise I will make you copy "The Difficult Road to Shu" fifty times!"

The students persevered, and after being pried apart, they grabbed them again, saying the most cowardly words in the most ferocious tone: "Copy it if you want!"

Shen Minghuan was almost angry.

Everyone except them was confused.

The young people looked at each other, still remembering that the children said that the teacher was in poor health and couldn't stand being angry. They were moved by the friendship between teachers and students before. Why did the good children suddenly start to rebel? Don't they worry about the teacher's weak body now?

Zhang Jingchang was thinking, it seems that he didn't do anything to these children? Why do they look like they have been bullied? These children acted so exaggeratedly, and some of them were even secretly wiping tears. How can he prove to the other teacher that they didn't do anything?

Gu Wenjing was hesitant. He was not sure if the other party was Shen Minghuan, a student of his friend. But no matter whether it was or not, it seemed a bit bad to try to seduce the other party's extremely smart student in front of this person?

Xu Yi straightened his back involuntarily and ran his fingers across the gun on his waist. He accompanied Gu Wenjing out this time in disguise, just like an ordinary junior from an ordinary family.

But the look Shen Minghuan gave him when he entered the door made him feel that the other party could detect his identity. Even the colleagues who pretended to be passers-by at the door and lurking in the corner, this person knew everything.

But how could it be possible? The other party was just a teacher in a small mountain village. No matter how knowledgeable he was, he should not have the opportunity to come into contact with people like them.

Xu Yi even suspected that he had guessed wrong. After all, he had no evidence, only an intuition honed on the battlefield full of dangers.

This intuition had saved his life countless times. Xu Yi glanced at Shen Minghuan calmly.

Shen Minghuan pushed away the tearful Yun Gou'er with disdain, but his legs were full of children, so it was inconvenient for him to move. He had no choice but to bow to Gu Wenjing and others on the spot: "Hello, sir, I am their teacher, Shen Minghuan."

Gu Wenjing calmly returned the greeting, as if it was not himself who did not recognize the other person just now: "I know you, Minghuan, I am Gu Wenjing."

Shen Minghuan had long recognized the identity of the old man.

The original owner's parents were soldiers and were often away from home for ten days or half a month. When the original owner was very young, he basically lived in the Jiang family and often had the opportunity to meet the professors who came to visit.

Later, when the original owner grew up and had the ability to take care of himself, he chose to live in the school and basically did not go back.

After that, his parents passed away, and he was accepted as a student by Jiang Li. At that time, Gu Wenjing had already gone to Ping County, so naturally there was no chance to meet.

The changes of children when they grow up are not small. Gu Wenjing is not close to the Shen family, and "Shen Minghuan" is also mediocre. Gu Wenjing certainly does not pay special attention to it.

Therefore, although he knew that such a person existed, he could not match the name with the face, otherwise he would find that in the few classes he taught specifically for college students, there would always be a teenager standing on tiptoe in the corridor outside the window.

Not only Professor Gu, but all those national treasure-level scientists would go to the university to give lectures, even if his age and knowledge at that time could not support him to understand.

Thanks to the university classrooms that have always been open to everyone, even those who are not students of this school are welcome to go in and study.

There are many people like the original owner. When the classroom is full, they stand at the door. "Shen Minghuan" is inconspicuous among them. At most, some people will sigh a few words because of his young age.

Even if he was admitted to the university, until he came to Mutian Village, the original owner had never missed any famous professor's class.

The original owner was really hard-working and had a firm enough goal, but it was a pity. Compared with the geniuses around him who worked equally hard, he always lacked a bit of talent.

Shen Minghuan sighed, he was more willing to believe that compared to the so-called talent, the original owner might just have used the wrong method.

Ah, let alone other things, it would be fine if he just attended the classes of professors of science and engineering, but it would be too much to not miss the classes of professors of design, right? The original owner had never even learned painting.

Shen Minghuan thought about it and sighed again, silently apologizing to "Shen Minghuan" in his heart.

As a beneficiary of talent, he may not be qualified to point fingers at the efforts of others, that would be too arrogant.

For the first time, the arrogant Shen Minghuan reflected on his past actions.
