Midnight Bookstore - Chapter 327
Chapter 327: Atonement
The bell finally stopped ringing. The unlucky couple felt that if they spent money, they would have to knock enough, so they knocked many times.
But her husband’s endurance did not seem to be good,
he was anxious at the beginning, but he began to lose strength at the end. In the end, he twisted his sore arm and said that he really could not knock anymore.
The bell stopped ringing,
zhou Ze fell to the ground on his back. His body was already drenched in sweat, and he panted heavily.
When the Fat Monk who was tied up saw Zhou Ze’s appearance, there was no fear in his eyes. Instead, there was an additional feeling of “Looking up from a high mountain”.
Awesome..,
just hearing the bell sound could make him look high and rough!
Zhou ze turned his head and looked at the damned fatty. Now, Zhou Ze could confirm that there was something wrong with the bell and not the temple.
Looking at the appearance of the Big Monk in the temple, Buddha must have been blind to make this temple have spirituality.
The Fat Monk smiled warmly. He pointed his mouth forward and said,
“There’s frozen drinks in the small fridge. Look at how hot you are.”
“…”Zhou Ze.
On the steps outside the house, lawyer an’s forehead was pressed against the green stone bricks. Sweat dripped down his chin continuously. Then, he wanted to stand up, but the soreness and bruises on his knees made him unable to exert any strength. He fell to the ground on his side.
Pursing his slightly chapped lips, lawyer an reached out to cover his forehead.
“What kind of Bell is this in the temple?”
Zhou Ze slowly got up and asked at the same time.
“It’s called the Morning Awakening Bell. A few years ago, I found a peddler to buy it. It’s said that it was used by a county office in an unknown era to gather bailiffs and commoners.”
The Fat Monk explained it very well.
“How much did you buy it for?”Zhou ze asked.
“Five thousand.”
“I’ll give you ten thousand…”
“Now it’s five million,”the Fat Monk spoke first and looked at Zhou Ze with a grin.
Zhou ze smiled,
then, the fingernail on his left hand grew out again. He walked in front of the Fat Monk and squatted down. The fingernail slowly pressed against the fat monk’s neck.
“How much is it again? I didn’t hear it clearly just now.”
“Fifty, including the transportation fee!”!
Monks don’t lie. Otherwise, Buddha will blame them
Zhou Ze really found it hard to believe this guy’s integrity. He pointed at the rope on the fat monk’s body and said,
“Buddha also let you do this?”
“Benefactor, you are too extreme. You experience the secular world, go from the secular world, and then come from the secular world. This is cultivation. This is also a kind of secular world.
“I give money, she gives service. We don’t owe each other anything.”
“Heh.”
“There’s a reason for existence. Monks claim to have jumped out of the secular world. Naturally, they can’t see the world through the eyes of the secular world. You think this is vulgar because you’re vulgar.”
Zhou Ze suddenly thought of the White Fox and seemed to have said something similar.
But at this time, boss Zhou didn’t have time to sit down and discuss with the fat monk. He reached out and broke the two ropes on the fat monk’s body, signaling for him to get up. At the same time, he warned,
“Treat what happened today as if you didn’t see it. Otherwise, Buddha won’t be able to protect you.”
“Amitabha. Meeting each other is fate. Don’t worry, almsgiver. Since this penniless monk is safe and sound, this matter will naturally not be pursued.”
Zhou ze nodded and took out a cigarette. However, he discovered that the cigarette was already gone.
With a fawning expression, the fat monk took out his supreme 95,
he passed one to Zhou Ze.
Boss Zhou looked at the empty box of Little Su Yan in his hand,
he suddenly felt that his life was too simple?
After lighting the cigarette, Boss Zhou was in no hurry to leave. Instead, he was panting and recuperating. He knew that there was another person outside. That person had tried to stop him just now, but he had failed.
Now..,
he was still outside,
because of that panting, it was as if he was doing something to climb a hill. It was so heavy and urgent that it was difficult for him to cover his ears and pretend not to hear it.
After blowing out a smoke ring, Zhou Ze saw that the monk had lit one himself. It seemed that he was also an old smoker.
“Buddha also let you smoke this?”Zhou ze raised his hand to signal the other party not to answer. He directly said, “Alright, I understand. Experiencing the life of the secular world again?”
The Fat Monk shook his head and said, “That’s not it. I have always encouraged the staff of my temple to smoke well if they have the conditions. Those who can smoke well will smoke well, those who can drive well will drive well, and those who can use expensive mobile phones will use expensive mobile phones generously.”
“Why?”
“Because the pilgrims come to the temple to offer incense and alms for peace or for fame and fortune.
“If the pilgrims see the monks of this temple, all skinny and dressed in rags, do they think that we are so noble, that we practice hard, and that we are so powerful?”
“Huh?”
“In the eyes of the Pilgrims, we monks eat greasily, drive luxury cars, and smoke good cigarettes. This is called the Buddha’s efficacy.
How can the pilgrims believe that this Buddha, this temple, can protect them when they can’t even protect a Buddha who can serve his own people and let them live comfortably?”
“What you said makes a lot of sense.”
Zhou ze thought for a moment,
he really couldn’t refute.
“What the hell are you talking about!”
Outside,
lawyer an leaned against the door and pointed at Zhou Ze.
“It’s You?”Zhou ze narrowed his eyes.
It was really fate,
they met once at Dean Lin’s place,
they met once at the nightclub,
and now they met again at the temple,
damn it,
he felt that he hadn’t done anything serious this week. He was just playing with him by chance.
“Go Catch a Ghost!”
Lawyer an shouted.
“You want me to catch it?”
Zhou ze pointed at himself,
f * ck,
you were the one who wanted to use the illusion to stop me just now, right?
You F * CKING changed your stance so fast?
Lawyer an took out a jade pendant from his neck. The jade pendant was glowing red and seemed to be trembling slightly.
“He’s very unstable now. Very unstable. He might even go berserk from the stimulation!
A berserk evil spirit, an evil spirit that occupies a living person’s body..,
just how much damage can he cause..,
you know this clearly, right?”
Zhou Ze did not reply.
“No matter if he’s captured by you or by me, at least we can control him. But we absolutely can not let him escape from the control of the two of us at this time.”
Moreover..,
he was very unstable now,
so..,
you..,
quickly go and capture him..,
i Don’t care anymore..,
i can even help you!”
Zhou Ze licked his lips and walked over from the door. Lawyer an was still looking at him. Seeing that Zhou Ze was still on guard against him, he directly waved his hand and shouted,
“It’s in that direction, go quickly!”
Zhou Ze did not delay any longer and did not have the time to bother with this fellow. He immediately ran over there.
Lawyer an originally wanted to follow him, but after a few steps, he knelt down.
He was a person who was exonerated of his crime and had been deprived of his birth characters. Therefore, when the bell rang, the pressure and torture he had to endure was much greater than Zhou Ze’s.
At this time, the Fat Monk took the initiative to help lawyer an up,
“Benefactor, do you need me to call an ambulance for You?”
“No, thank you.”
“Then what can this penniless monk do for you?”?
“Monks are merciful. Buddha has already cut off his flesh and fed it to the eagle. Seeing benefactor’s painful appearance, if this penniless monk can’t do something to share some of the burden, this penniless monk really feels bad.”
“Let me drink some blood, it will help me recover faster.”
“Pa!”
The Fat Monk immediately released his grip,
lawyer an fell to the ground like a dog eating sh * t. his forehead hit the doorsill, causing a big bump.
“This penniless monk suddenly feels that it’s better to catch demons…”
The emperor is on the right path..,
in broad daylight..,
how can demons run amok!
Benefactor,
wait for this penniless monk here..,
“This penniless monk will go and help that benefactor from before!”
“It’s ghost hunting.”
Lawyer an said as he covered his forehead.
… ..
When Zhou Ze arrived at the door, he discovered that there were already many people gathered there.
An old nun was lying in a pool of blood, not moving at all. Beside her, a girl kept shouting, “Grandma! Grandma!”
Zhou Ze rushed over first. Out of instinct, he squatted down to see if the old nun could still be saved.
At this time, the ambulance had not arrived yet. If the injured could get professional medical care earlier, they would have a better chance of escaping death.
The old nun was still breathing. Her mouth was full of blood, and her eyes were wide open.
Zhou Ze started to help her check her injuries. At the same time, he warned, “Relax. If you can not talk, don’t talk. Try to breathe steadily. Don’t fall asleep. Hold on.”
As he spoke, Zhou Ze had already lifted the nun’s Monk Robe. His hands began to examine it professionally.
The problem was very serious,
the impact was not light. Moreover, this was without examining the injury to the brain.
Zhou Ze was considering. With the Old Nun’s age, she should not have much life left. Even if he used his nails to grab her soul and stuff it back in, it might still be difficult to complete the treatment of her.
The old man in the hospital last time was made to want to die by him,
in the end, he begged him not to save him,
just give him a quick death and let him die,
this also made Zhou Ze understand,
many people really had their fates met. Even for a ghost like him who had special abilities, there was nothing he could do.
However,
at this moment,
the old nun suddenly had a burst of strength from somewhere,
she pushed Zhou Ze away.
“Don’t save me… Let Me… Let Me Die…”
The old nun shouted indistinctly.
As she spoke,
her body kept rising and falling, and her breathing became more and more intense.
She was looking for death.
“There’s still hope to survive, really.”
Zhou Ze tried to persuade her.
“Let me… Die… be… hit by a car and die… okay…”
Zhou Ze did not hear what the old nun said next clearly,
but she was very emotional,
she looked at Zhou Ze with a determined gaze,
she was determined not to save her!
Her body twitched a few more times,
the old nun’s body softened,
she still went.
Zhou Ze was a little annoyed,
he couldn’t understand,
even as a doctor who was used to seeing life and death, the feeling of seeing the injured person with a glimmer of hope in front of him but not being able to do his best to save her really made him very unhappy.
At this moment, the woman who had been hugging the old nun’s head cried and sobbed:
“Grandma said… She was hit by a car and died… it was God’s will… God allowed her to atone for my father’s mistake back then..
She thanked God for giving her this chance.”
