Chapter Fifty Mutation

  Ghost house, the person sitting in the chair turned into Gu Lianyun, where is Ouyang Yun? He didn't have his hands tied up, but he seemed to be suffering more than having his hands tied. He lay on the ground, his whole body twitching slightly, his face covered with sweat, and his hair was all wet with sweat.

  Gu Lianyun smiled and looked at him with a very soft voice: "I didn't expect you to be quite persistent."

  Ouyang Yun forced a smile, although it was somewhat distorted and looked even uglier than crying. In a slightly trembling voice, he said: "The most difficult thing is to bear the favor of a beauty... Today I just realized that this saying of the ancients still makes sense." His words sounded flippant, but in reality, his heart was filled with emotion: This time it's gone too far, if things don't go well, it seems like the 320 million yuan worth of plane tickets will be wasted. He thought about the newly formed student army and the Japanese who were still flaunting their power in Tianjin, and he felt a deep sense of frustration! However, his whole body felt as though it was being bitten by countless ants, and not only did he not have the strength to stand up, but he didn't even have the energy to scratch an itch.

  He wanted Gu Lianyun to help him organize the intelligence team, so he pretended to be generous and untied his belt. As a result, she flicked her finger, and he inhaled a bit of powder from her fingernail, losing all his strength, turning from a hunter into a sheep waiting to be slaughtered.

  But Gu Lianyun's role had a big change, from a sheep to a super evil tigress. After knocking down Ouyang Yun, she rubbed her hands and scolded: "Look, you've tied up my hands until they're numb with blood, are you still a man? You don't know how to cherish and pity the beauty."

  Ouyang Yun felt a chill run down his spine, and the hairs on the back of his neck stood up - someone had once said that when a woman smiles flirtatiously at a man, it's either because she has fallen in love with him and wants to please him, or because she hates him so much that she wants to devour his flesh and drink his blood. Ouyang Yun thought about it from all angles, but he couldn't shake the feeling that his charm wasn't enough to make a woman who had only met him a few times fall in love with him. He remembered that she was Bai Liuxu's senior sister, and he recalled "Bone-Eroding Powder" - how could he not be terrified?!

  As expected, the woman soon sprinkled a packet of medicinal powder on him and stretched out her fingers to gently spread it evenly, saying "See how much I love you, I even personally applied 'itching powder' for you!"

  When he heard the word "蚀", he almost shouted out loud, fortunately, it was followed by the word "肤". His mouth opened and then closed again. He thought he was being humorous and said: "Thanks a lot, miss!"

  "Hmph!" Gu Lianyun snorted, then laughed and scratched his nose, saying: "No wonder my junior sister would confide in you without reserve. Not only do you look good, but your mouth is also so sweet - tell me, how many girls have you harmed up to now?"

  At this time, the powder had already started to take effect. Ouyang Yun only felt that countless ants were crawling on his body, lightly biting his face, hands, neck, and slowly crawling into his clothes. This was what it meant by "a thousand ants gnawing at one's heart". He couldn't be humorous anymore, and his expression changed as he asked: "'Skin-eating powder', won't my skin rot?"

  Gu Lianyun smiled and said, "Don't worry, I love you so much, how could I let your skin fester? However, after twelve hours, I can get a complete human skin..."

  Ouyang Yun fell silent, he could tell this wasn't a threat.

  "You don't seem angry?" The woman squatted down, looking at him with apparent curiosity.

  Ouyang Yun wasn't angry? How could that be, it's just that he thought the thing women most wanted to see right now was him getting angry or being timid, so he forcibly endured it.

  In addition, neither of them knew that as the medicine gradually entered his bloodstream, the early injections of drugs and vitamins in his body began to take effect, although they did not alleviate much pain, but after all, they played a role.

  The more he was like that, the less Gu Lianyun dared to be excessive. She didn't have any intention of killing him, she just wanted to complete her task and avenge her grievances. Smiling at him, she set out her conditions: "Hand over all the remaining things to me, then write an IOU and I'll give you the antidote."

  Ouyang Yun let out a sincere bitter laugh: "Really... all of it... bought... military equipment."

  Gu Lianyun shook her head and said, "You're not being honest. The military equipment you bought, I've seen it before, at most it's worth half the value of gold. Those calligraphy and antiques, I've seen them with my own eyes." She suddenly smiled and said, "Speaking of which, you still owe me a favor. Just for this, you shouldn't be making things difficult for me."

  "I'm troubling you, aren't I? Again, what favor do I owe you? Is it because of your kindness this time?"

  "Didn't you notice anything unusual when you were cleaning up the battlefield after that Japanese sneak attack on your base?"

  Ouyang Yun's eyes widened in shock as he stared at her and asked: "Those... two... plainclothes... were killed by you?"

  "Yes."

  "Thank you!"

  "How about it? Deal?"

  Ouyang Yun shook his head.

  "I didn't think you'd be able to hold on for so long." After saying this, Gu Lianyun took out another medicine packet and smiled slyly: "Looks like I'll have to let you taste the 'Cuan Chang San' after all." Just as he was about to open the packet, his eyes suddenly changed, and then he heard him shout urgently: "Quickly lie down!" Following which, he was kicked in the foot by Gu Lianyun, and with a stumble, he fell forward onto the ground.

  Almost as she fell, a gunshot rang out, and a bullet whizzed past the back of her head. Immediately following, "Rat-a-tat-tat" gunfire erupted like popping beans.

  She fell right onto Ouyang Yun's body, and Ouyang Yun let out a comfortable hum. Her face turned red as she cursed "Pervert!" and rolled over, rushing towards the door.

  Ouyang Yun smiled wryly, knowing she had misunderstood, but it wasn't easy to explain. His body was itching unbearably, and the pain actually relieved this feeling, which is why he had such a despicable reaction. Just now, when she took out the "Chuanshangsan", through the damaged window, he suddenly discovered that on the previously empty wall, a black shadow suddenly appeared, with something in front of it. He knew another great god had arrived and didn't know where the energy came from. As he shouted "Quickly lie down", he kicked her over. He was secretly cursing his bad luck, thinking if he had known earlier, he wouldn't have saved her. Suddenly, a round object with a tail of smoke flew in, and he knew it was a Japanese hand grenade. His heart turned icy, and the itching sensation didn't seem so severe anymore. His left foot unconsciously stretched out and kicked the grenade back out.

  Gu Lianyun rolled into the hall, and with a flick of her hand, she threw the medicinal powder onto the ground. As she half-squatted up, each of her hands had an additional flying knife.

  Outside the house, six people participated in the sneak attack. Two of them crouched on the wall, and one lay on the roof of the front house, holding a machine gun and pouring bullets into Ouyang Yun's house crazily. Four others used the tomb as cover, aiming at the doors and windows but not shooting. The other two crawled under the window, constantly throwing hand grenades.

  Gu Lianyun had just gotten up into a half-crouch when the two guns mounted on the grave mound suddenly opened fire on her simultaneously. Without hesitation, she flipped back inside and quickly pulled out two medicine packets with her left hand, tore them open with her mouth, and then sprinkled their contents all over Ouyang Yun's face and head. With her right hand grasping his right foot, she dragged him to the wall behind the main room.

  Ouyang Yun kicked a grenade into the air, and just as he saw two more grenades flying in, he thought to himself that this time it seemed like he was really done for - his previous kick had almost exhausted his potential, and there was no way he could dodge these two grenades. Damn it, why did other people get to cross over into worlds with beautiful women, wealth, or even become emperors, while he ended up in such a miserable situation? It was already bad enough that he'd been saddled with a difficult task, but now it seemed like he wouldn't even be able to complete it.

  It was too late, the time was fast, Gu Lian had just pulled him behind the gate of the main house when three hand grenades exploded in front and back, one outside and two inside. The intense explosion shook the wall, causing it to collapse with a loud crash, dropping stone dust and debris everywhere. A muffled groan came from outside, as if someone was injured.

  After the explosion, he found himself still alive, and Rou Yu was in his arms. Ouyang Yun was stunned for a moment. Gu Lianyun had sprinkled too much antidote on his face, covering it entirely with powder, leaving only a pair of sparkling eyes visible. He let out several sneezes, asking in surprise: "You saved me?"

  Gu Lianyun gave him a sideways glance, as if only now realizing that the two of them were so close together. Subconsciously, she pushed him away and said: "There are six people outside in total, probably little devils. I'll take four, you take two. Are you confident?"

  Ouyang Yun bitterly smiled: "Elder sister, I seem to have fallen into your trap."

  "It's been solved!"

  "Ah!" Ouyang Yun moved her hands and feet, finding that although they were a bit numb, she was already fine. She said with great joy: "I didn't expect you to be such a broad-minded woman, let's not mention the past anymore, let's compete fairly from now on!"

  Another two explosions came from inside the house. Gu Lianyun quickly said, "Then let's make a bet. If I kill more than you, you'll return my things."

  "What if you killed fewer than me?"

  "How is that possible? You think my 'Muscle Relaxation Powder' can be undone just by saying so? Within half an hour, you'll have at most 50% of your usual strength."

  Ouyang Yun gathered his abdomen, pinched his hands, and felt that he had recovered at least 70% of his strength. He said, "In this case, after you lose, follow me around. If I lose, do whatever you want with me."

  "Hah, alright then, don't regret it!"

  "Real man..." Ouyang Yun said, but before he could say the word "husband", a hand grenade flew in from the front door. He immediately jumped up and kicked it back out with his right leg, then darted into Bai Li Su's room and disappeared into the darkness.
