Signing In At The Civil Affairs Bureau, I Was Rewarded With A Gorgeous Wife

"Rest here for now; I'll go and keep watch around us."

Song Yun instructed and then walked towards the back of the stone house.

About thirty centimeters off the ground at the base of the wall, Song Yun dug out an iron box.

Upon opening it, there was a potion inside that emitted a faint blue glow, constantly tempting Song Yun to use it like the whispers of a demon.

"Fuck! What the hell is this thing!"

Song Yun expended a great deal of mental effort just to tear his gaze away from the potion; it was too domineering! Merely a glance had already made him deeply addicted.

What would happen if he used it?

Song Yun's mind was in constant torment; in his head, there were two little figures now, one an angel, the other a demon.

The angel was telling him not to use any potion other than what the system provided, while the demon kept urging him with temptation to use it right away!

"Song Yun! This potion's origin is unknown, and the side effects it brings could very well become your nightmare!"

"Don't be scared! Isn't power what you want? Don't you want to become better than the rest on your own strength?"

"Don't use it! Do not use it! Think about your lovely wife at home; do you really want to make her a young widow???"

"To become a king, you must become ruthless! What are you afraid of! Isn't this power enough to dispel all your hesitations!!!"

"Stop!"

Song Yun roared, clutching his head in anger.

"Song Yun, what's wrong!"

Ouyang Jie picked up his weapon and rushed toward the stone house. If Song Yun didn't respond immediately, he would consider having Hou Guangliang lead Professor Yan and the others to evacuate first while he himself went to see what was going on.

"It's nothing; I'm just too mentally exhausted and had a hallucination."

When Ouyang Jie heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief. Song Yun was currently the backbone of the whole team and the most powerful among them; if something were to really happen to him, it's likely that no one left would have the hope to survive.

Song Yun took a couple of deep breaths, removed the socks from his gas mask, and wrapped the potion up tightly. When he got out, he definitely needed to find someone to study it; he had to know what was inside!

"You scared the crap out of me just now!"

Watching Song Yun come out from behind the stone house, Ouyang Jie hit him in the chest.

"We'd better hurry on; have you forgotten what happened when we passed through the first meteoric corridor, and things got lost?"

Song Yun was now extremely wary of these things, neither divine nor ghostly; who knew whether the forces behind Yu Shengzong had any tricks left!

"Since someone has been here before, there must be a way to leave."

Professor Yan stroked his glasses on the bridge of his nose and said, "Let's split up and look around, see if we can find any mechanisms."

The six people each took responsibility for an area. Song Yun had already used his Perspective Eyes to find where the mechanism was; he walked into the stone house where there was a wooden bed. Moving it aside, there was a ring-pull on the floor.

Opening the floor tile, gusts of fresh air blew into his face.

"Professor Yan, I've found it!"

Song Yun shouted to those outside, and the other six hurried over, hesitating around the pitch-black hole, as no one knew where it might lead them.

"I'll go down first to explore!"

Song Yun jumped down and landed on the firm ground below, which was just over two meters from the surface, a height from which an ordinary person wouldn't get hurt.

"Come on down; I've got you!"

One after another, they entered and felt the flow of wind, greedily removing their gas masks to breathe the air. Ouyang Jie's urine... it was really quite a pungent smell!

"Triangle formation, I'll take the lead!"

Song Yunkai activated his Perspective Eyes to lead the way uphill. After about fifteen minutes, a huge boulder blocked their path.

Song Yun pushed hard, and a ray of sunlight shone on everyone's faces.

This is what life is all about!

"Finally made it out, damn, not only did we get nothing, but we almost died in there!"

Ouyang Jie took off his heavy protective suit completely and comfortably bounced twice on the ground, feeling so solid and reassuring!

"Where is this place?"

Professor Yan looked around, feeling somewhat familiar with the surroundings.

"Don't you remember, teacher? There was a mountain next to the excavation site, this is the back of that mountain! Those damn coolies have dug through the bottom of the mountain!"

One of Professor Yan's disciples said resentfully, "We've put in so much effort, and got nothing in return, it's so frustrating!"

"It's good that no one was hurt."

Professor Yan soothed his disciples' emotions. He turned back to look at Yu Shengzong, who was being carried by Hou Guangliang, with a very complex expression. If it wasn't for Song Yun's clever unmasking of the lies, they all might have gotten lost in the underground palace.

Ouyang Jie took out the walkie-talkie and found that it was working again. He contacted the relevant personnel only to discover that a day and a night had passed.

After surviving life and death, each of them lay lazily on the grass, basking in the sun, and the feeling was just too comfortable!

The rescue team arrived quickly, along with the National Security Bureau and doctors.

The doctors checked the seven individuals and found no serious issues, which was a relief.

The National Security Bureau was there for Yu Shengzong, needing to clarify what kind of power was behind him and what they were plotting.

After arriving at the camp with the others, Song Yun had Ouyang Jie arrange for someone to send him home.

He couldn't stay here for long, because in his arms, he had a vial that needed figuring out!

...

The Huashi Villa.

Song Yun lay on the bed, ceaselessly fiddling with the thoroughly wrapped vial. He had just been unable to resist opening it again, and the allure of the medicine was stronger this time, he was mere centimeters away from plunging the needle into his skin!

"Click!"

The door of the room was opened.

"Honey, when did you come back?"

Ye Qingqing looked at Song Yun, who was lying on the bed, her eyes brimming with joy.

Without any hesitation, she pounced toward the bed and hugged Song Yun tightly, her head buried into his chest as she took a deep breath.

"I missed you so much~"

"I missed you too."

Song Yun gently caressed Ye Qingqing's hair with one hand, while covertly slipping the vial into his pocket with the other. He did not want anyone close to him to see such a thing, for if they used it without restraint, Song Yun couldn't bear the consequences!

"Darling, did you guys have any fun stuff happen this time?"

"No, I think I prefer just staying home and sleeping with you."

Song Yun began teasing Ye Qingqing with a mischievous smile, and before long, the door was closed, and the father-in-law's task was once again underway!

Two hours later, Song Yun took a shower, feeling refreshed all over; even his previously muddled mind was now clear.

He locked the vial up in a cabinet and went downstairs to start preparing lunch.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

The villa's front door was knocked. Bao Ding sat in the surveillance room, glanced outside, and saw a harmless old man relentlessly knocking on the door.
