Midnight Bookstore - Chapter 254
Chapter 254: Boss Zhou’s Animal World
Takeaway arrived,
he first drank two mouthfuls of the spider lilies oral liquid,
zhou ze began to eat with relish.
In his previous life, Boss Zhou was busy with work and did not pay attention to food. In this life, eating was a tough job at the beginning. Now that he could enjoy the pleasure of eating, he naturally did not pay much attention to what he ate.
Of course..,
it was his family’s kitchen maid who was sick.
“Life is not only the casual life in front of you, but also poetry and the distant fields,
you came to the human world with your bare hands, but you didn’t find the sea and didn’t care about anything else…”
A singing voice came from the entrance of the bookstore,
sangxin was a little hoarse, and her emotions were filled with vicissitudes,
needless to say..,
the singing was pretty good.
Boss Zhou walked to the entrance of the bookstore with a lunch box. He saw a singing young man playing and singing on the roadside with a guitar. The young man was wearing a t-shirt, black and dirty canvas shoes, and ripped jeans. He sang very attentively.
A lot of people quickly gathered nearby,
when he sang, some people also put some money into the guitar bag in front.
Boss Zhou was like a migrant worker,
sitting on the curb,
eating two mouthfuls of boxed rice,
and then looking up at the singer,
then he lowered his head and continued to eat.
Perhaps, this was life, with food and drink and leisure to listen to music.
Yingying was playing games in the Internet cafe opposite,
the poisoned old man may also have a way to detoxify,
the old man happily took the express delivery,
he had an appetite to eat,
it was very beautiful.
If it was the Zhou Ze of the past, if he saw the current him, he would probably snort disdainfully, expressing his disdain for this kind of salted fish life.
But at this time, he..,
was willing to suffer.
Qu mingming came out of the bookstore door and saw Zhou Ze squatting there. He also squatted down with him, took out a cigarette, and handed it to Zhou Ze.
Zhou ze lit it up and took a puff. He frowned slightly. The smell was very strong, but it was very strong.
“I planted the tobacco myself, and it was specially cultivated. Even the cigarette holder was designed by me. Smoking this has the effect of clearing the spirit or radix isatidis.”
“Smoking can strengthen your body?”Zhou ze picked up the lit cigarette, put it in front of him, and took another puff. “Is there any more? Give me a few boxes.”
“Hehe, there aren’t that many. Nowadays, medicinal herbs are more expensive. Moreover, the cost is very high. A cigarette costs about two to three hundred.”
“It’s not expensive…”
“Pounds.”
“Hiss…”
Zhou ze asked curiously, “Is your family the kind that is especially rich?”
“Actually, my family isn’t considered rich. Although we have a family name that has been passed down since the Tang dynasty, being a doctor isn’t a very rich profession. It’s only easy to earn money these few years.”.
My uncles and other elders made insoles that can cure all kinds of diseases,
fire therapy that can cure cancer,
these things may sound ridiculous to you, but the market is really good. However, I don’t like this feeling.
When I went to visit one of my uncles’companies, his company was having a meeting. A group of elderly people of grandparents’age gathered together and waved their flags, just like those MLM organizations.”
Zhou ze nodded.
“So, I feel that things are pretty good now. If you like to play with Gu Worms, you can play to your heart’s content. If you like to play games, you can open an internet cafe. Occasionally, you’ll be in charge of treating a few high-ranking officials and dignitaries, helping them to recuperate. You Don’t lack money either, so your life is actually quite comfortable.”
Two salted fish..,
inadvertently..,
found a confidant!
“Oh right, I’m already cultivating the GU worm. It will be completed in another eighteen hours. By midnight, it will be ready to be extracted. That female employee of yours is a zombie, are you one too?”
Zhou ze nodded.
“I’ve really opened my eyes today.”Qu Ming had thought things through and actually reached out to hook Zhou Ze’s shoulder.
Zhou Ze had always hated strangers who made physical contact with him,
people who were obsessed with cleanliness..,
couldn’t stand it the most.
However, he smelled a fragrance on Qu Mingming’s arms. His hands were very white and his nails were very clean. This was a person who knew how to be clean. He was really like an ancient doctor in an illustration. He had an otherworldly BUFF on him.
Even if you were obsessed with cleanliness..,
it was really hard for you to find it repulsive.
“I feel that my life has become very interesting again. I’ve already done a lot of research on Gu Worms. You’ve opened up a new topic for me.”
“Actually, I feel quite guilty. In this world, you might only be able to see the white side in the past. It also has a black side. It’s not good to see too much of it.”
“I know, I know.”
“Today, I watched the snow drift past in the cold night. With a heart that has cooled, I drifted far away. I chased after it in the wind and rain, and I couldn’t distinguish my tracks in the fog…”
After the song ended, the singing Guy changed to another song and started singing.
“You sang pretty well,”Qu Mingming said.
“It’s quite vicissitudes of life. At least, that’s what it sounds like,”Zhou Ze said.
“Vicissitudes of life?”Qu mingming smiled. “His Shoes, his jeans, and the guitar in his hands add up to more than 100,000 yuan.”
Zhou Ze was stunned for a moment,
he had thought that the singer was out to make money, but it turned out that he was here to experience life.
At the same time, he felt a little embarrassed. Beside a real rich second generation, he always felt that his taste was despised.
“I’ll sing a song too.”
Qu Ming stood up, clapped his hands, and walked to the singer’s side. There was a microphone hanging next to him, welcoming passersby to sing. He would accompany you, but it was unavoidable to give you a tip afterwards.
Zhou ze watched from the side.
However, the moment Qu Mingming picked up the microphone..,
zhou Ze suddenly smelled a strange smell,
this smell was very faint, but it really existed.
Zhou Ze’s gaze focused. He threw away Zhou Zhong’s lunchbox, immediately covered his nose, and rushed back to the bookstore.
Qu mingming, who was just about to sing, saw that Zhou Ze actually left without listening to the song,
he seemed to be a little dispirited. He put the microphone back and took out a few hundred yuan from his pocket. He put it into the singing guy’s guitar backpack and walked to his internet cafe.
Zhou Ze, who had rushed into the bookstore, pushed open the door and began to look around,
the smell..,
the Smell!
Yes..,
it was in the bookstore,
it was getting stronger!
Something came in..,
it was really coming!
“Squeak squeak! ! ! ! !”
The sound of the monkey smashing came from the eaves. Zhou ze raised his head and saw the monkey standing on the beam. It held the mud in one hand to cover its nose and held the yin-yang book in the other hand, looking very anxious.
When the monkey saw Zhou Ze come in, it immediately jumped down from the top and pounced on Zhou Ze. For the first time, it made a “Hug”gesture.
While monkey was in mid-air, a stream of yellow smoke suddenly rose up and swept towards monkey.
Monkey smash screamed and actually did a backflip in the air,
it could only be said that this was monkey’s talent. He could not be envious.
Monkey, who had dodged the yellow smoke, landed on the bar counter. He pointed in a direction and kept squeaking at Zhou Ze.
“Hu hu… Hu Hu…”
There..,
there was a weasel lying there,
and it was still sleeping.
If it was a person, it would be very difficult to sneak into the bookstore, but if it was a small animal, it would be very difficult to guard against.
Moreover, the other party was definitely not an ordinary small animal.
“Hu hu… Hu Hu…”
The weasel continued to snore, but the yellow smoke remained around it.
The Weasel was also known as Huang Daxian in many places in the northeast. The weasel in front of him must have become a spirit. Its purpose for appearing here was self-evident.
However, Zhou Ze did not expect the other party to arrive so quickly.
At the same time, he felt that the eighth aunt was very stupid. If she had endured a little longer and not come out in advance to show off, the Black Cat would not have barked, and he would not have asked Yingying to take out the yin-yang book, the monkey would not have taken it out as an illustration with interest.
Just a moment ago..,
the old priest was not at home. Of course, it did not make any difference whether the old priest was at home or not
Ying Ying was playing games in the internet cafe across the street. Old Xu was probably in a daze after soaking in the bathtub upstairs,
he was sitting at the door listening to music and eating lunch boxes,
this weasel was the easiest time to sneak in. If the yin-yang book was not in the monkey’s hands, it might have really stolen it.
“Creak…”
The door of the study room was pushed open,
the Singing Guy pushed the door open and walked in. He had a warm smile on his face, a very sunny young man.
Plop..
He threw the guitar bag on the ground,
there was some money that he had earned from the singing,
if one looked closely,
one could even find some wild ginseng and precious game. There was even a piece of leather that was made from some animal’s skin.
The singing young man bowed slightly to Zhou Ze,
he saluted,
“Good evening, we are here to pick up eighth aunt and bring her home. This is the fee that eighth aunt has been bothering you for the past few days. Please accept it.”
To be honest..,
this group of Great Immortals, one for one, knew etiquette,
the eighth aunt from before had taken the initiative not to get into a conflict with Liu Chuyu,
this time, this person even brought a gift.
This made Zhou Ze wonder if he had gone too far?
She was already so tactful,
she did not have any enmity with him,
should he let her go?
Zhou Ze noticed that the young man’s eyes had a yellow luster flowing in them from time to time. Then, he looked at Huang Daxian who was sleeping in the corner and understood.
This person had also been possessed.
They had originally wanted to steal the item directly, but after failing to do so, they could only change their way of thinking out of courtesy.
“You’re exaggerating,”Zhou Ze said.
“It’s only right.”The other party bowed to Zhou Ze again.
Zhou ze smiled and waved at monkey. “Come, give the item to me and let him go home.”
Monkey shook his head desperately,
why!
Zhou Ze realized that this monkey had really gone astray ever since he became an old priest,
how pure and innocent it was in the past and in the previous life,
now, it was also a person who did not want to be taken advantage of and only wanted to take advantage of others.
“They even came looking for you and even gave you a gift.”
As he spoke, Zhou Ze took out an old mountain ginseng from his guitar backpack.
“It’s a 300-year-old wild mountain ginseng. It’s not common nowadays,”the young man introduced.
“Here, take this and eat it.”
Zhou ze threw the old mountain ginseng directly to monkey. Monkey took the ginseng and ran over gloomily. He handed the Yin-yang book to Zhou Ze.
“She’s inside.”
As he spoke,
zhou Ze handed the Yin-yang book to the young man.
“On behalf of all the Celestials in the old mountain forest, I thank you for your generosity. In the future, if you have any matters to attend to in the old mountain forest, let us know in advance. We will receive you well.”
“You’re welcome.”
Zhou ze bent down and continued to check the other gifts in his guitar backpack.
A yellow light flashed in the young man’s eyes. He did not care about those gifts. To ordinary people, they were rare goods, but to them, they were just common things around him.
In the next moment..,
he could not help but open the yin-yang book,
“Eighth aunt, come out…”
Then..,
he stopped moving.
Zhou Ze stood up, his back facing the young man, and began to retreat,
after he retreated to the young man’s side..,
he stretched his hand back, not looking at the Yin-yang book. After groping for a long time, he finally closed the yin-yang book.
With the Yin-yang book in his hand..,
on the cover, other than the Black Cat and a small snake, there was also a very angry weasel. Obviously, it knew that it had been tricked.
“Don’t blame me. It’s you guys who are too stupid, right?”
Monkey smashed to the side as he gnawed on the precious wild ginseng and couldn’t help but nod.
Zhou ze patted the yin-yang book in his hand. He wanted to laugh but held it in,
because he felt that he was like a big villain in a movie,
but he still couldn’t help but say,
“Is there a goddess coming? I want to make an animal world.”
