Midnight Bookstore - Chapter 442
Chapter 442: The Scene of the Super-Large Ghost Thrashing Wall!
Ghost Shadows in the hazy fog were swaying. It was unknown where they had come from or where they had gone. In short, the shadows kept swaying, but nothing came out.
“Huh…” Lawyer An gritted his teeth.
“What did you find?” Zhou Ze asked Old An beside him.
“Tsk tsk, nothing.” Lawyer An was very honest and continued, “Look at this ostentation. The thunder, rain, fog, and Ghost Shadows. These are a few elements of a ghost movie. With such grand ostentation, there must be something extraordinary causing it.”
What Lawyer An said was not a big load of crap. Ordinary souls who entered the bookstore were very low-key. They ate. They went back on the road and left behind some money. The grand scene in front of them, whether it was a human, a demon, or a ghost, was not simple.
Zhou Ze turned around and walked to the car. He opened the car door and sat inside. Lawyer An quickly got into the car and sat in the driver’s seat. Bai Yingying and the Old Daoist also got in when they saw this.
The Old Daoist carried the monkey and kept looking out of the car window. The shadows in the distance were still moving. Although he was out with the boss and Lawyer An, he felt a little scared now.
He subconsciously touched his crotch. Then he touched the monkey’s backpack. Only then did he feel more at ease.
“Boss, now are we…” Bai Yingying hesitated for a moment and said, “Are we going in to save Lin Ke?”
It was very dangerous inside. Despite that, if the boss insisted on going in to save his subordinates, she would go with him. She had to protect the boss. She would be wherever the boss was.
“Drive.” Zhou Ze waved to Lawyer An who was in the driver’s seat. He looked very calm. He had the imposing manner of a man who would go ahead if there were millions of people.
Bai Yingying was dumbfounded by what she saw.
Lawyer An nodded and started the car. Then, he turned the steering wheel to the left and turned the car around!
“…” the old man said.
“…” Bai Yingying.
“…” the Little Monkey.
After making a precise U-turn, Lawyer An stepped on the accelerator. He drove straight back with an indomitable stance. Zhou Ze remained silent. The two men had the same thought.
They were not in their own territory. If something had happened, it had nothing to do with them. Why should they bother with this matter?
Even if the earth was shaking and the mountains were shaking, what did it have to do with Tongcheng ghosts?
“Boss… What about that little b*tch, Lin Ke…?” Although Bai Yingying hated Lin Ke always squeezing into her bed and ruining her solitude with her boss. It didn’t seem right to leave her like this.
“Don’t worry. Lin Ke can’t contact us right now. Her cell phone must be disabled here,” Zhou Ze said.
“Huh?”
“So, if Lin Ke can contact us, she will try her best to stop us from taking the risk to come in and save her. She doesn’t want us to be in danger because of her. Otherwise, she will have a guilty conscience and feel guilty for the rest of her life.”
“Um…”
Bai Yingying felt that what he said made sense, but why was it still a little strange?
Lawyer An had driven very slowly when he drove in and almost stepped on the gas pedal when he drove back. It was very dangerous to race on the Misty Mountain Road like this.
The Old Daoist was so scared that his face turned pale. He held the monkey in one hand and the handrail in the other. The Old Priest knew very well that once a car accident happened, he would be the quickest to die in the entire car. The others would be injured at most.
After driving for twenty minutes, the Little Monkey suddenly jumped out of the Old Priest’s arms and jumped to the front window. He danced and squeaked, looking very anxious.
“Ka…” Lawyer An stepped on the brakes.
“What’s wrong?” Lawyer An asked. He knew that the monkey was spiritual. It was very intelligent and could sense things that ordinary people could not.
“Squeak Squeak!” The monkey pointed outside.
“What do you mean?” Lawyer An still did not understand.
“Get out of the car and take a look.” Zhou Ze said as he pushed open the car door. Soon, the monkey ran out of the car through the door and ran to the roadside. It pointed at the ground and squeaked.
Zhou Ze and Lawyer An walked over. The two of them bent down together. They found two puddles of wet marks on the ground and there was a pungent smell.
This was urine!
One big and one small puddle of urine!
Little Monkey stood on the ground and made the motion of peeing. Then, he pointed at the ground and kept shouting.
Zhou Ze and Lawyer An’s expressions immediately became serious. The car drove back for twenty minutes and yet they had returned to the place where the monkey and the Old Priest had peed.
“Is this a bewitching array?” Zhou Ze asked.
Lawyer An scratched his hair and looked around. It was still foggy.
“I can’t break this thing. The layout is too big. This mountain area is covered in fog.” At this time, there was no need to act tough.
However, Zhou Ze and Lawyer An did not panic too much. If they had not realized that something was wrong from the start, they would not have turned back without hesitation. It could be said that they had long been mentally prepared.
However, now everyone seemed to be trapped in a huge ghost wall. They could not advance or retreat.
If they had encountered such a situation in the past, it would have been a piece of cake to resolve it. However, today was different from the past. Such a big deal was not something that could be resolved easily.
Everyone felt that they were extremely small compared to this fog.
“Was it Lin Ke’s doing?” The Old Priest shut his mouth after asking this question. He felt that this question was very idiotic.
The two human traffickers in the junkyard behind the petrol station at the foot of the mountain might have been killed by Lin Ke. To say that this terrifying ghost fog that even Lawyer An was helpless against was also Lin Ke’s doing was insulting. If Lin Ke was that awesome, would she have become an employee of the bookstore? Her boss would have been slapped to death long ago.
“The safest choice now is to stand here and not move. The fog will eventually disperse. I don’t think it will last for too long. Even if a ferocious beast continues to play like this, it will still be drained dry.”
“Is there any food in the car?” Zhou Ze asked.
“Yes, boss,” Bai Yingying answered immediately. “I’ve prepared a lot of food.”
“Then, we…” Zhou Ze was about to say that they should have a picnic but before he could finish his words, a strong wind suddenly blew!
The wind was very strange and strong. It made them think of the super typhoon “Mangosteen” that had landed in Guangdong.
Everyone present was being blown back by the wind. There was a cliff below, and below the cliff were cliffs and mudslides. Everyone was struggling to grab at anything in front of them.
The Old Daoist desperately held onto the rock in front of him, and the Little Monkey hid in its arms, shivering.
Lawyer An’s bony hand directly pierced into the cement road. Zhou Ze’s nails pierced into the ground. Despite their efforts, the two felt somewhat powerless.
The strong wind and inertia still pulled them strongly. It was as if they were being sent to the mouth of a giant beast.
Among the people present, only Bai Yingying remained unmoved. She stood there very calmly. She was as steady as Mount Tai!
In the face of this situation, Bai Yingying’s first reaction was not to pull away. Instead, she covered her mouth with both hands and exclaimed in her heart, ‘Oh My God! I’m so fat! So heavy that the wind can’t even move me! It’s too scary!’
Zhou Ze struggled to hold onto the ground as he watched his fingernails draw a ravine on the ground. However, he was still unable to resist the terrifying force brought about by the hurricane. Zhou Ze saw from the corner of his eye that Bai Yingying was standing motionlessly in front of him.
Why was she fine?
“There’s a problem! This isn’t an ordinary wind!” Zhou Ze shouted at Lawyer An, who was also being blown away by the wind.
“What?” Lawyer An did not hear clearly.
“There’s something wrong with the wind!” Zhou Ze shouted.
“Is the iPhone a little expensive?” Lawyer An shouted in puzzlement. He misheard his boss.
“…” Zhou Ze.
Lawyer An followed Zhou Ze’s gaze and looked up. Only then did he realize that Bai Yingying was standing there motionlessly. He was stunned for a moment and then immediately shouted, “This isn’t a normal wind, this is a Yin wind! It’s only effective on the soul!”
Yin wind usually appeared in Hell. Of course, it also existed in the world of the living. For example, people often liked to use “Yin wind gusts” when describing an environment. This was a type of wind that stimulated one’s soul. Of course, chilly winds in the ordinary sense were too weak but this was a hurricane!
One’s perception was determined by one’s soul. When one’s soul was blown by the wind, even one’s body reacted. It could not be considered an illusion. It was more like when one’s soul was about to be blown away, one’s body instinctively moved along with it. That is if one wants to maintain harmony and consistency with one’s soul.
“Boss!” Bai Yingying quickly recovered from the shock. She skipped over Lawyer An who was the closest to her. She directly grabbed her boss’s hand.
“…” Lawyer An.
“Boss!” Bai Yingying pulled Zhou Ze hard.
Zhou Ze’s body was indeed being pulled forward by her but the pain of his soul being torn apart immediately appeared. It was originally being blown by the wind. Now, it had become the wind and Yingying’s struggle against his soul.
“Let go!” Zhou Ze shouted. He felt that his body was about to be torn in half.
“No, boss, if we die, we die together. Yingying won’t let go!”
“Let go!!!” Zhou Ze roared with all his strength.
“No, Yingying won’t leave you, boss! Yingying won’t let go!!! I won’t let go!”
“…” Zhou Ze. He felt that he and Bai Yingying were in two different channels now. If she doesn’t let go, I’ll break!
“Let go. Quick, let go!” Zhou Ze felt that his body was about to split.
“No, boss. Yingying is not afraid of being punished by you! Yingying is your zombie. Even if she dies, she will still be your zombie. Yingying won’t let go!!!”
If it weren’t for the fact that the conditions didn’t allow it, Zhou Ze wanted to give Bai Yingying a blow on the head. ‘What time is it now? Who has the time to play love drama with you!’
Zhou Ze could not endure the intense pain anymore. His fingernails immediately grew out. He scratched Bai Yingying’s wrist.
Bai Yingying was most afraid of Zhou Ze’s fingernails. She immediately trembled and instinctively let go of his hand.
Zhou Ze, who was relieved, did not have time to breathe a sigh of relief before he was blown back by the chilly wind. Zhou Ze could only subconsciously scratch the ankle of Lawyer An behind him.
“@#%&@#%&” Lawyer An.
Then, the struggling Lawyer An and Zhou Ze started to get dragged. In the end, the two of them lost their footing and fell off the cliff.
“Boss… boss…” Bai Yingying’s eyes were wet as she stood on the road.
“Boss would rather sacrifice himself… than implicate me… Sob… sob.. Boss…”
