Midnight Bookstore - Chapter 188
Chapter 188: Missed Calls!
In fact, it didn’t mean that the old Taoist had opened up the Ren and du meridians after being possessed, and that his divine power had increased so much that he could kill anyone in his way. Cao Ding’s upper body had indeed stimulated the old Taoist’s potential, but in reality, no matter how much he stimulated it.., the old Taoist’s potential could not be stimulated to a level beyond that of Bai Yingying and the Little Loli.
The reason why Cao Ding was able to kill two warriors consecutively like chopping melons and vegetables was because Cao Ding had killed them back then and suppressed them for 500 years. This was a fear that was imprinted in the depths of their souls.
In front of Cao Ding, these three fierce and murderous warriors could only be reduced to thin and weak quails.
This was similar to how Bai Yingying could be very cold when she was alone, but when she faced boss Zhou, whose bloodline suppressed her, she would immediately become “Sob sob sob”.
Cao Ding was very straightforward. He directly killed the second warrior, and now, there was only one left.
Moreover, it could be seen that this warrior was clearly a little anxious. This kind of fear was not something that could be resisted by shouting a slogan like “Man conquers the heavens”.
This was a natural enemy, an insurmountable gap.
The old Taoist let out a long sigh of relief. Now, as long as he killed the last warrior, he would be able to put an end to his pretense.
Cao Ding did not waste any time. He knew that he could not afford to waste any more time, so he directly rushed forward.
The old Taoist’s figure was vigorous, as if he had been rejuvenated. The warrior began to dodge. He did not even dare to take the initiative to fight back, but dodging did not have much of an effect. After more than ten moves, the warrior began to succumb, finally, Cao Ding found a loophole and kicked him, causing him to kneel down. Immediately after, Cao Ding’s blade went forward.
Quick,
cut Him,
cut Him!
Cut him, then we can shout “Ka”and go home to eat and collect clothes!
The old Taoist shouted in his heart!
However,
at this moment, a strong sense of weakness came from the old Taoist’s body. This kind of weakness was like a night of comforting and caring for a dozen mistakes. The Sky began to spin.
“F * ck!”
The old Daoist thought to himself, this is not good,
then, his whole body fell backward and finally fell on the ground. The feeling of fatigue came directly, and the old Daoist fainted in an instant.
The katana fell on the ground, but this last slash did not cut down.
Xu Qinglang, who was lying on the ground and observing the situation, subconsciously spat out a mouthful of blood from the corner of his mouth,
this was too melodramatic. He had given her great hope, but something went wrong at the last moment?
The standard melodramatic movie routine actually happened in front of her.
Bai Yingying forced herself to slowly stand up against the wall. In fact, her body was in chaos, and her murderous aura was unbridled. However, she knew that this was not the time for her to rest, no matter how bad the situation was.., she had to stand up.
The Little Loli, who was covered in blood, stood against the wall. When she saw the old priest fall, the corner of her mouth twitched. Her temper was not very good to begin with, so at this time, if it was not because her body was not strong enough, she really wanted to scold someone.
However, after thinking about it, it seemed that no one could scold her anymore.
Scold Cao Ding?
He didn’t say much, nor did he say much nonsense. He wasn’t like those decent characters in stupid TV dramas who liked to talk nonsense before killing people. He was already decisive and fast enough.
Scold the Old Priest?
He didn’t seem to have anything to scold. He had already done everything he could.
In fact, among this batch of people, only the old priest was a pure person. So, if Cao Ding wanted to possess him, he could only possess the old priest’s body. He had already made his own contribution.
In the end, the Little Loli felt that there was still one person she could scold.
It was that ZZ..,
he ran over and dug a hole himself,
then, when everyone was working hard to fill the hole for him, he was lying there snoring!
This ZZ!
Gritting her teeth, the Little Loli struggled out of the wall. Although her body was very unstable and couldn’t stop shaking, she had no choice.
There was no music, no flowers, and no blood-red flags waving behind her.
She was clearly doing something honorable, but there were no cheers or cheerleaders. The Little Loli didn’t like this feeling, and she also hated this scene.
Spider-man wasn’t dead, but he couldn’t stand up. His injury was too serious, but the huge wound that had appeared earlier had already begun to scab.
The samurai was stunned on the spot for a long time. It seemed that he had not yet recovered from the despair he had felt earlier. With some hesitation, he tried to stand up.
Then..,
he saw the old priest who had fainted on the ground. He saw the opponents in front of him who were so heavily injured that they could not even maintain their standing posture.
He really wanted to laugh,
happiness..,
came too suddenly!
A feeling of despair filled the air. This scene, this plot, and this rhythm were suitable for the beginning of the movie, not the end.
According to the plot of the movie, after the failure to stop the Devil, a new batch of warriors were born and appeared, and finally killed the devil.
In fact, the Little Loli knew very well that after her defeat, she would die. After this Japanese warrior wreaked havoc for a while, there would be bailiffs and even patrol officers coming over.
This Japanese warrior would not be able to escape death in the end.
She let out a long breath and took a deep breath. The Little Loli opened her mouth, but she only stuck out her tongue to lick her chapped lips.
The warrior picked up his katana,
his armor stretched out,
the wind blew in all directions,
it was very strong,
it was as if he was making a soundless and unbridled laugh.
After sacrificing two of his companions, he laughed until the end.
Although there were many twists and turns in this process, and although he was still in a sorry state after being chased by Cao Ding, the situation was still under his control in the end!
Clang
The warrior raised his katana. At first, he pointed at the old Taoist in front, then at Bai Yingying on one side, and finally at the Little Loli on the other side.
Many villains died because they talked too much. It was not because villains were stupid, but because it was difficult to resist the temptation of acting tough when victory was at hand, which made people subconsciously immerse themselves in it.
However, the samurai didn’t delay too much. He first walked to the old Daoist lying in front of him.
He raised his knife,
“Kacha!”
The samurai was stunned,
he turned his head,
he looked behind him,
the statue that belonged to Cao Ding suddenly fell down at this moment.
“Bang!”
The samurai was pressed down, and the statue raised a huge cloud of dust. There were actually sparks scattered in the interior of the statue. Not long after, charred smoke spread out.
The Little Loli stood where she was and immediately rushed over, not caring about her injuries!
Bai Yingying also let out a fierce cry and forced herself to rush over as well.
The two women stood in front of the collapsed statue and watched it rise and fall. Clearly, the warrior inside was struggling desperately in an attempt to escape.
A shrill cry from the soul came from below, but it was followed by an even hotter temperature.
There was a way to make a beggar’s Chicken, which was to put the prepared chicken into other ingredients under the extremely hot soil. After a certain amount of time, the chicken would be taken out and peeled off the soil. The chicken inside would be very delicious.
At this moment, this last warrior was actually equivalent to that Beggar’s Chicken.
“What’s going on?”
Bai Yingying was clearly confused,
“Is he going to be crushed to death?”
A ghostly warrior who had just summoned the wind and rain was crushed to death just like that?
This was like the scene in a movie where the boss of a villain was given a huge amount of space, but he choked to death before he even appeared. It was a little baffling.
The Little Loli knelt on one knee and lowered her head to the collapsed statue in front of her. This was a way for the ghostly messenger to express his respect.
“Cao Ding burned his dharma body. He could have become a temple God like Madam Bai and the lady in Green. In fact, his merit and the incense he enjoyed in Tongcheng for generations were much higher than the previous two.
“But he gave up all of this just to drag the dead soul of this warrior into oblivion. He even lost the chance to go to Hell to seek an official position.”
Upon hearing this, Bai Yingying was stunned for a moment and then knelt down together with him.
Above..,
xu Qinglang, who was lying on the ground and watching the situation, sighed in his heart. The ending of the hero was really sad.
Then..,
xu Qinglang looked at Zhou Ze, who was still unconscious beside him, and said helplessly,
“It’s all over. Why aren’t you waking up?”
In the midst of helplessness..,
with intense dissatisfaction and hidden resentment, it was so thick that it seemed like it was going to turn into water droplets.
..
“So, what’s going on?”The Japanese girl looked at Zhou Ze curiously.
The Phantom statue behind him was burning, and the remaining set of armor and the flag were also burning. The raging flames completely covered the front.
“It’s burning his own soul and merit,”Zhou Ze explained.
Five hundred years ago, Cao Ding died in battle. The citizens of Tongcheng built a temple for him and a tomb for the Japanese. Five hundred years of incense offerings were the local people’s way of remembering him. Now, he had returned all of these things to them, all he wanted was to take away this demon that was about to be unearthed and ensure peace in the place.
Zhou Ze felt that although he was an all-knowing person, he might not be able to do this. If it was not because of his status as a ghost, he might have chosen to protect himself from the very beginning.
It was precisely because most people were unable to do so that people worshipped heroes even more. No matter how much respect they gave the hero, no matter how much incense they offered, it was not an exaggeration.
The fire was still burning. This vast expanse of white mirror world seemed to be burned clean soon after. After losing Cao Ding and the ghosts of the Devils that had been suppressed, the peculiar features of general mountain would no longer exist.
Zhou Ze felt that he would be able to leave soon. These ghosts that had gathered here would also enter hell themselves. They were supposed to enter hell, so whether Zhou Ze sent these ghosts or not did not count as a result.
Oh,
there were still results,
for example, the Japanese girl standing next to him.
Zhou Ze felt that he had always been a bystander in this matter, but fortunately, it was not completely fruitless. He could at least send this girl to Hell to earn some money.
The glass in the surroundings began to distort and evaporate. The souls began to wander around. They were waiting for the restriction here to completely disappear, so that they could go to the Netherworld Road where they should go.
When he thought about the group of friends he was about to meet outside, Zhou Ze was still a little afraid. This matter had been exposed because he wanted to investigate, but in the end, he was locked in the mirror and didn’t do anything, while those people outside.., were probably very busy.
This… wasn’t very easy to explain.
He took out a cigarette from his clothes and then took out a lighter. Zhou ze saw that his cigarette and lighter were a little twisted, and even his palm was a little blurry.
This was a sign that he was about to go back,
but Zhou Ze still lit the cigarette,
then, he took out his phone out of habit.
“Can we go out now?”The Japanese girl asked.
“After we go out, I’ll send you to where you should go,”Zhou Ze said. “If you have family, I can help you contact them afterwards and give them a final explanation. I’m sorry, this is the limit of what I can do.”
“I understand.”The girl was very understanding.
Zhou ze shrugged. In fact, there was one thing that Zhou Ze had always been curious about. Why could the ghost call him in the mirror, but he couldn’t call him in the mirror? Could it be that this thing was a one-way connection? Or could it only be connected to the local ghost?
But wasn’t the Little Loli also a Ghost?
There was one more thing. Since Cao Ding was able to burn all these ghosts and demons to the ground, why didn’t he burn them at the beginning? Could it be that he still had the intention to save himself in the beginning, in the end, he decided to sacrifice himself when he saw that the situation might get out of control?
Of course, Zhou Ze didn’t have any intention of blaspheming the heroic soul. Heroic souls were also human, so it was normal for him to have such thoughts.
Out of the blue,
zhou Ze opened the phone book,
at this moment,
the phone screen started to blur, and everything around him started to blur.
Zhou Ze selected the unknown number and clicked on it. He had dialed everyone else’s number before, but no one picked up. Zhou Ze had never dialed this number before.
“Du… du… du… du…”
The call actually connected,
“Du… du… du… du… du…”
The sound of a phone rang beside him.
Zhou Ze put down the phone in surprise,
he looked at the Japanese girl in front of him.
The sound of the phone,
came from her.
The girl was stunned,
she turned her head,
she looked at Zhou Ze and said with a blank expression,
“What Sound?”
Zhou ze looked at her and calmly looked at her. She was naked. When she walked out of the hot spring pool, she was naked. After that, when she ran out of the room with Zhou Ze, she was also naked. Therefore, there was actually no place for her phone on her body.
However, the smile and confusion on the girl’s face soon disappeared,
she stretched out her hand,
she placed it on her chest,
then, she tore open the flesh on her chest,
in the middle of her ribs, there was a small and delicate phone embedded inside.
“Crack! Crack!”
She broke two of her ribs and took out the phone inside,
then, in front of Zhou Ze, she pressed the phone close to her face,
she lowered her voice,
she said in a deep voice,
“Hey… Save Me… Save Me… I’m at General Mountain… Save Me…”
The girl licked her lips as if she was joking with an adult. She looked a little shy.
Then, her hand gently patted the spot where she had just torn it apart. She cried out with some lingering fear,
“That was close…”
I told you this old thing without a finger wouldn’t be so easy to deal with,
at that time, the priest didn’t think much of it. He said that he had been dead for 500 years. What threat could there be?
Unfortunately..,
for some unknown reason, the priest actually stood me up. This time, he didn’t come. Otherwise, I really wanted to point at his nose and scold him. I wanted him to open his eyes and see:
If I’d gone in there with him,
i’d probably be dead by now.”
