The First Gospel Chapter 15: A Bounty Hunter Passing By
"You're eating so fast, be careful not to choke. Would you like something to drink?"
Gu Yun asked as he observed the little fat boy.
"Oh, it seems you know a lot. It should be in the refrigerator in the kitchen. Please help me get it."
"Juice or yogurt?"
"Cola."
"knew."
Gu Yun opened the refrigerator door, which was filled with various sealed cooked foods. Drinks were on the top layer, including juice, iced tea, soda, cola, Sprite, whatever Gu Yun could think of, was in stock in the refrigerator.
Baidu Knows is really a great thing. Every time I chat with enthusiastic netizens, I can gain a lot of knowledge.
He had just learned that people in this world called those creatures ghouls.
Gu Yun had seen many of these monsters lurking in forest caves before, but this was the first time he saw the process of their transformation.
Unconsciously, he had more than ten years. Many of his memories of that world had become a little fuzzy. He also vaguely remembered that the elders said that they existed because they devoured...
What did you swallow?
Three question marks appeared above Gu Yun’s head.
These memories were so old that he couldn't remember the details.
Forget it, just treat it as a stomach upset.
However, he could still remember how to lift the curse.
The method was not difficult, and neither the spell nor the ritual was required. Gu Yun unscrewed the bottle cap and poured the Coke into the glass - the elders had said that a glass of water or a drink was enough to lift the curse.
Of course, in addition to this, another medium is needed.
Gu Yun rolled up his sleeves and took out the kitchen knife that the monk had used for rituals.
He suddenly felt that he was so foresighted, and this step was actually within his calculations.
The blade cut the skin and blood flowed down the palm into the glass.
When he was in his hometown, Gu Yun had never tried to lift the curse of the ghoul himself, so the method given by the elders remained to be verified.
This special cup of cola can be considered as a thank you to the pancakes.
"Come."
Gu Yun quickly walked up to the fat boy and handed him the Coke.
"Hey, why is your hand bleeding? Your hand..."
The look changed.
The fat boy's gaze passed over Coke and stayed motionlessly on the wound on Gu Yun's palm.
At this moment , the feeling of hunger seemed to have increased several times.
Although the raw steak was already very delicious, and was the most delicious food he had tasted in a while , but...
I always feel like something is missing.
Suddenly, a voice appeared in his mind, telling him that what he was looking for was hidden in the wound on Gu Yun's palm.
"Master Gu, do you mind if I..."
"mind."
Before the fat man could finish speaking, Gu Yun interrupted him.
He had seen such a look before - the monsters outside the village would give him a similar look when they saw him.
In the past, he would usually just break the monster's neck and bring it back to the village as food reserve, but this time, he clenched his fists to hide the wound on his palm.
"Just one bite. Trust me, it won't hurt."
"I reject."
"Really, just eat a little!"
His eyes were wide open and bloodshot, his arms almost dropped to the ground, and his grinning mouth revealed his changed fangs.
The next moment, his fat body burst out with unreasonable strength. He clenched his fists and pressed the ground, then soared into the air like a wild beast and rushed straight towards Gu Yun.
In a flash, Gu Yun's injured hand pressed down on his chin, pinning the mountain-like body to the ground.
"I suggest you drink a Coke and calm down."
Gu Yun felt that he had made great progress in staying calm since coming to this world, and students who were easily impulsive should learn from him.
If it were me a dozen years ago, I might have failed to control the strength and accidentally broken the fat boy's cervical vertebrae.
Gu Yun used his other hand to pour a whole cup of Coke into the fat boy's mouth without saying a word.
This action caused the fat boy to struggle violently. He twisted his body and kicked the dining table several meters away.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the two of them maintained this stalemate.
Gradually, the intensity of the struggle lessened, and the bloodshot in the whites of his eyes seemed to be fading.
I don’t know how long it took, but the enthusiasm in his eyes turned into complete doubt.
"vomit--!"
As Gu Yun loosened his hand, the fat boy turned around abruptly, holding his stomach and retching on the ground.
"What did you do to me? Why is there such a strong smell of blood!?"
He shouted in panic and tried to pick out all the foreign objects in his mouth with his hands.
When the little fat boy saw the minced meat that he had dug out and spit out, his eyes finally rolled back and he lay motionless on the ground.
Well, it seems the elder's recipe worked.
A normal person would have this reaction after biting into a mouthful of raw meat.
In this way, the first commission was successfully completed!
Although it was a pity that the steaks on the cart were wasted without being tasted, the reward that followed was the most important. With this reward, he could take home the treadmill he had longed for before the discount ended.
It is said that if you pay within the discount period, you can enjoy the benefit of home delivery.
This commission was a bit complicated, as he had been busy for so long and the family seemed so wealthy.
One thousand yuan...
No, a thousand dollars seemed a bit too bold.
A person like An Ling, who is a princess of a small country, only paid him two thousand yuan. No matter how rich this family is, they can't be richer than the princess of a small country, right?
However, it would cost another thousand dollars to bring the treadmill home.
Gu Yun gritted his teeth.
Otherwise, let's compromise and charge 500 yuan.
In the past, I worked very hard and only earned a few thousand yuan a month. Now I am asked to pay 500 yuan for less than half a day. When I think about it, the price seems a bit excessive.
But……
For the sake of his sister's endurance training, Gu Yun decided to go all out!
The asking price is five hundred. If the employer disagrees, I can lower it a bit later.
Anyway...it's fine as long as it's not less than a hundred yuan in the end.
At least he was injured in the fight!
"Don't move!"
"Put your hands where I can see them!"
"Hello, is this the captain? We have surrounded the criminals! Yes, we found Mr. Jin's son."
"Mr. Jin's son doesn't seem to be in good condition..."
"His face is covered in blood. He must have been seriously injured in the fight with the criminals!"
"The criminal is very dangerous and has a controlled knife in his hand!"
"Understood. We will do our best to ensure the safety of Mr. Jin's son and wife!"
Gu Yun's thoughts about the bounty were soon interrupted by the noisy sound outside the door.
Several security guards stared at him as if they were facing a great enemy. When they saw a man dressed as a chef rushing out of the community as if running for his life, they immediately gathered people and rushed over.
But I didn’t expect…
After all, I was still a step slow!
Mr. Jin's son was seriously injured while bravely fighting the criminals and is now in a coma!
"Put the knife down!"
The leading security guard emphasized it again.
"Don't get me wrong, I'm not a suspicious person!"
Gu Yun obediently put the kitchen knife on the ground and raised his hands above his head.
His sister warned him not to fight with others outside.
"So, who are you?"
"I'm just a bounty hunter who just changed his career!"
"Bounty Hunter?"
The security guard hesitated for a moment, then suddenly realized.
"Captain, this man is a new assassin, and someone paid him to kill someone!"
