Midnight Bookstore - Chapter 181
Chapter 181: Not Playing?
The study room was as quiet as usual. Of course, it would be a miracle if the study room became lively.
After Bai Yingying received a call from Xu Qinglang, she immediately changed into a new set of clothes. When she locked the door and was about to leave, she saw spider-man sitting alone inside. She frowned slightly and then opened the door and walked in, she said to spider-man, who was sitting there silently,
“Hey, the boss is in trouble. Come with me to help him.”
Spider-man raised his head, looked at Bai Yingying, and then stood up silently. He only listened to Zhou Ze’s words, but it did not mean that he had no IQ at all.
After leading him to the outside of the shop, Bai Yingying locked the door of the shop. At this time, a taxi drove over, and a little loli was sitting in the passenger seat.
After Bai Yingying and spider-man got into the car, the driver looked at the car full of customers and smiled:
“What are you guys called? Oh, cosplayers, right?”
Bai Yingying didn’t answer,
the Little Loli didn’t answer,
the priest couldn’t answer,
the driver was so embarrassed,
then he suddenly felt that it was cold in his car. He looked down and saw that the air conditioner wasn’t on.
“Let’s go, master, General Mountain,”the Little Loli urged.
She was in a very bad mood because Zhou Ze was always causing trouble. She only hoped that Zhou Ze would be able to work steadily and become a patrol inspector, and then she would be free.
In fact, she had always thought that Zhou Ze was a very smart person. Whether it was before or after she was subdued by him, the Little Loli still maintained this view.
That was because he was very lazy. He couldn’t be bothered to be any different from a salted fish. However, how could this salted fish get into so much trouble.
First, it was the residence Lord’s ID, then the lady in Green, then the Yin-yang book, then the priest, and now, he went to general mountain to make himself “Unconscious”.
The Little Loli took a deep breath. It was really troublesome to meet such a constable.
“Is there a way to solve the problem of the Boss?”Bai Yingying asked the Little Loli.
The Little Loli smiled, “I just received a call. The guy who opened the noodle shop was just an idiot in metaphysics. It was difficult for his description to provide too much valuable information. I had to go to the scene to check before I could come to a conclusion. But one thing is certain, your boss is a person like him. Without you and the freezer, he couldn’t even sleep, so how could he be unconscious.
“Especially when there are no external injuries.”
Hearing this, Bai Yingying frowned slightly and said, “No matter what, we have to wake the boss up.”
“I’ll try my best.”The Little Loli curled her lips.
“If the boss doesn’t wake up, you’ll be buried with him.”
Hearing this, the Little Loli’s expression froze and she said in a low voice, “At this time, it’s meaningless for you to threaten me again.”
The driver listened to the bickering between a little girl and a young girl. Although he didn’t understand what they were talking about, he felt that it was quite interesting. He wanted to interject, but it seemed that he wasn’t in the cosplay industry, so it was difficult for them to have a common topic.
However, the driver still found the starting point and said, “Are you going to General Mountain for a vacation? It’s said that a murder case has just happened there.”
The Little Loli was silent,
bai Yingying was silent,
the priest continued to be silent.
The driver felt even colder. It was so cold that he didn’t want to drive anymore, and his feet began to tremble.
This was also normal. The driver was very lucky today. He had brought three passengers. One was a ghost, one was a zombie, and the other was a corpse. How could he not be cold?
A normal taxi driver would drive to the funeral parlor or the cemetery at night and see a blurry white shadow in the distance. It would be amazing, but in the end, he had achieved a grand slam,
damn it, he had achieved his peak achievement!
“General Mountain, it’s a good place. Do you know the background of General Mountain?”The driver still wanted to speak. He had to speak. He was so cold that he was gasping.
“What background?”Bai Yingying asked.
It seemed that because Bai Yingying had taken the initiative to talk to him, she had deliberately restrained her murderous aura. The driver suddenly felt that the temperature had risen. It was not Bai Yingying’s fault. She only said “Wu Wu Wu”to Zhou Ze. When she was facing other people.., she was really cold. Especially after the incident with her boss, Ying Ying’s mood was not very good either.
“Cao Ding, do you know?”The chauffeur asked.
“Who is it?”Bai Ying asked.
“A famous general who fought against the Japanese. Of course, he can’t compare to Qi Jiguang, but he’s still very impressive. He’s a native of our tong city. During the Ming dynasty, during the Jiajing years, the Japanese pirates were causing a lot of trouble. Our Tong City is located at the mouth of the Yangtze River to the sea. There are also many Japanese pirates. He led his troops to repel the Japanese pirates several times. However, when he was forty-four years old, he still died in battle. He died a heroic death.”
“OH.”Bai Ying Ying nodded.
The Little Loli suddenly became interested and asked, “What is the relationship between the General Mountain and Cao Ding?”
“Because of his name. There is another scenic spot on the General Mountain called the tomb of the Pirates. It was used to commemorate him. At that time, the pirates were burning and robbing the place. Cao Ding defeated them and then chased them to the general mountain. An accident happened and they were sacrificed. Originally, the General Mountain was not named that way and Cao Ding’s position was not high. However, the citizens of Tong City were very grateful to him and hence, they called that mountain the General Mountain. After that, they never changed it.”
The Little Loli licked her lips thoughtfully.
About an hour later, the car finally arrived at the foot of the General Mountain. The Little Loli paid the bill and got out of the car first.
When Bai Yingying got out of the car, she saw the Little Loli looking up at the top of the mountain with her hands behind her back. She looked like a little adult.
“What did you see?”Bai Yingying asked.
“The problem is that I didn’t see anything,”the Little Loli said with a frown, “That’s the weirdest thing. That guy surnamed Xu said that they saw ghosts in the hot spring hotel on the top of the mountain, and there were quite a few of them. However, it was very peaceful here. There was not a single trace of evil spirit.
“I think your boss would have the same doubts as me. There were clearly ghosts, but it was peaceful.”
“Why?”
“Didn’t you hear what the driver said before? This is a place where heroic souls are sacrificed, enjoying the incense and incense of the local people for generations. In this place, even if a demonic spirit appears, it will be suppressed very badly. Even you and I will be suppressed.”
“What about the Boss?”
“I don’t think so. Although your boss is a ghost, he won’t be directly targeted. Moreover, five hundred years have passed since he came from a family background. No matter how powerful a heroic soul is, it won’t be able to hold on for so long. People are always forgetful.”
“Let’s go to the hotel and see how the boss is doing.”
After saying that, Bai Yingying went straight up the mountain.
The Little Loli followed behind,
the priest was at the back.
However, as they walked..,
the priest suddenly stopped. His slightly hunched body slowly straightened up, and a faint green light appeared on the hood of his eyes.
The Little Loli turned her head and looked at the priest. She asked worriedly, “He won’t lose control, will he?”
Bai Yingying shook her head firmly and said, “Impossible. He’s not the same as before. You’re not a zombie, so you don’t understand how we zombies feel.
“I can tell you with certainty that he will never betray his boss in this lifetime.”
The priest looked around as if he was looking for something, but also as if something was calling to him.
However, Bai Yingying and the Little Loli did not sense anything at all.
“What is it?”Bai Yingying asked the priest.
The priest was a little lost. He opened his hands as if he did not know how to describe it. Ever since Zhou Ze brought him back to the study, he had not said a word.
When he communicated with Zhou Ze, it was very simple, but when he communicated with others, it was very difficult.
“What’s going on?”Bai Yingying asked.
The priest was still at a loss, but he still bent down mechanically and grabbed two stones, one big and one small.
The small stones were stacked on top of the big stones,
then..,
the priest reached out and pinched the small stones on top,
“Crack!”
The small stones instantly shattered.
The fragments slowly slid down the priest’s fingertips,
then, he looked at Bai Yingying and the Little Loli as if to see if they understood what he meant.
“Oh…”
The Little Loli opened her mouth and made a sound.
“What do you mean?”Bai Yingying looked at the Little Loli.
“Oh… I don’t understand either,”the Little Loli said.
“…”Bai Yingying.
The priest scratched his head,
he seemed to be thinking about how to express himself.
“Forget it. Let’s go find your boss first.”
The Little Loli didn’t want to waste any more time. She turned around and walked up. Bai Yingying glanced at the priest and followed her.
The priest continued to follow behind them in a daze,
the priest walked very steadily, but every step he took left a footprint on the ground. At the same time, he unconsciously shook his head, like a cow chasing away a noisy fly.
..
“Hey, I cleaned your leg for you. It’s not bad. You can play with it for the New Year.”
Zhou ze lifted the girl’s leg and shook it against the wall.
The old priest had once taken out a leg from the water in the illusion of entering the hot spring pool. In fact, it was the leg that Zhou Ze was holding now.
“Do you want to play?”The girl next door asked.
“Sorry, I was just joking. After all, we’re both dead. There’s nothing that we can’t afford to joke about.”
“Let me ask you… Do you want to play?”
The woman continued to ask.
“No.”
Zhou Ze looked at the leg in his hand and chose to refuse.
The moment Zhou Ze refused..,
hot water began to flow out of the hot spring pool on Zhou Ze’s side. It was not a hot spring, but boiling blood.
The blood quickly filled the hot spring pool, like a pot of Chengdu hot pot, hot and scalding,
even..,
there really was something inside that seemed to be boiling, constantly rolling.
That was another leg,
that was an arm,
that was a chest,
that was a neck,
pieces of mutilated corpses kept rolling inside,
she came,
she jumped through the glass barrier,
from the next room, she came to Zhou Ze!
In the blood, the head slowly floated out. Her limbs and bones kept rolling around her,
at the same time,
she said:
“You’re not playing?”
