Midnight Bookstore - Chapter 466
Chapter 466: Animal World
The Old Priest’s laughter made the many ghosts in the pavilion confused. They had only heard of ghosts scaring people. Today they were scared ghosts.
The guy who had his face pressed against the Old Priest’s shoulder had an extremely strong makeup aura. His gaze was somewhat hesitant.
If this was a ghost sitting in a pavilion, he wouldn’t have so many worries. He probably would have rushed over to tear the Old Priest into pieces.
The key point was that all the people sitting here were the police officers. Holding a job in the Yin system, he must have thought more than those fart ghosts in Hell.
He also liked to think more and hesitate when doing things. He could think of seven or eight ways to solve trivial matters. Otherwise, it would be boring to sit on the cold bench of the underworld?
To the higher-ups of the Underworld, ghost messengers were a kind of consumable product with a very high loss rate.
However, there were also a group of people who were not ambitious but knew how to protect themselves. First, they were not consumed. Second, they did not get promoted. They had always occupied the latrine pit and lived like the previous generation. This made it look like the Republic of China.
When Little Loli accompanied a group of ghost messengers to Chengdu, there were many old ghost messengers of that generation who passed through. They wanted to make a fortune peacefully but the result was quite tragic.
The group of ghosts in the pavilion could also be considered the representatives of the old ghost messengers. It was unknown why they had gathered here.
The Old Daoist didn’t know. He thought that he had accidentally entered a ghost nest. In his heart, he first greeted the eighteen generations of Lawyer An’s ancestors warmly. Then, without hesitation, he reached out and inserted his hand into his crotch.
In wuxia novels, martial artists practiced the sword-drawing technique. It emphasized speed, ferocity, and accuracy!
This was the crotch-drawing technique of the Old Daoist. He pursued the same path.
This time under the stimulation of the survival crisis, the crotch plucking technique was used faster, more ferocity, and more accurately than before. Besides the paper talisman, there were also a few curled black hairs on his fingertips.
Regardless of the situation, he directly smacked the face of this pink-faced man!
“Ah!!!” A shrill scream rang out.
The talisman burned, along with the pink-faced man. In the blink of an eye, he was reduced to ashes!
The Old Daoist was shocked.
Holy shit. After being locked up in prison for more than a month, this poor Daoist’s power had increased greatly?
If Lawyer An were to stand by the side, he would probably roll his eyes at the Old Daoist. His power had increased greatly? Stop dreaming. These people were all clones made of paper.
If a ghost was instantly killed by a talisman, then your Old Daoist would be really awesome.
The Old Daoist shook his head. He touched his crotch again and took out another talisman. He stared at the many ghosts present.
These ghosts were not in a hurry to rush forward. A few of them shouted loudly. The shouts were gurgling. It was as if there were many stones and mud in their mouths. It was hard to hear clearly.
In a suite in a courtyard opposite the pond, the old man who was originally pressing down on the begonia immediately prepared to get up, “Something has happened, I’ll go and take a look.”
The female ghost messenger suddenly stretched out her leg and hooked it around his back. She squeezed it hard, she said, “It’s not missing these few seconds.”
In an instant, the river flew down three thousand feet.
Whoosh.
It’s done.
Indeed, it’s not missing these few seconds.
The old man got off the bed. One of the two men in suits who had been standing at the side to watch the battle immediately went forward to help the old man put on his clothes. The old man gave the other one a look, and the second man in the suit walked straight out.
“What’s wrong?” The female ghost was also putting on her clothes,
She felt a little regretful. This old man was just an appetizer. He looked good but was useless. She wanted to taste the two puppet men in suits.
“I don’t know why those old-timers are shouting blindly. Fortunately, the Venerable One doesn’t plan to rely on them to accomplish anything. Otherwise, they would be a bunch of useless and destructive things.”
It was fine to wave flags and shout from the side. If they encountered something, these cowards would run faster than anyone else!
“You clean up this place. I’ll go outside and take a look. There are still a few waves of customers arriving. Once this matter is settled, I’ll properly feed you.”
“Sure.” The female ghost messenger cast a flirtatious look. As for what she was thinking, no one knew.
They didn’t think that they were that unbearably messy. Carpe diem was their current goal.
…
In another suite, the three people who were tasting wine put down their wine glasses together. The shouts of the group of old-fashioned ghost messengers in the pavilion had an effect on all the ghosts. It was like sound waves transmitted by bats.
Lawyer An threw the cup onto the ground. It made a crisp cracking sound. At the same time, he clapped his hands and said, “Hey, the mine-clearing engineers have completed their mission. Let’s go!”
It was originally a skirmish where a small group of people ambushed a small group of people. It would be a little ridiculous to insist on researching any complicated tactics.
The key was just one word, “F*ck!”
Although they were all ghosts, everyone was fighting like street thugs. You caused trouble in my territory and almost got me arrested by the cops. I seized the opportunity to rush at your back and smash a brick at the back of your head!
…
“Don’t come over! That heavenly venerate boundlessly, that Buddha Amitabha!”
The Old Daoist held the talisman paper and looked at these ghosts.
These paper man doppelgangers didn’t dare to go forward. Even if it was a doppelganger, it would still cause a loss to the original body. None of them were willing to suffer such a loss. This was their nature.
Based on the current situation, the number of these old ghost messengers was becoming fewer and fewer. Those who were still alive were all shrewd people.
In recent years, the newly promoted ghost messengers had become mainstream. It was said that the Netherworld seemed to be brewing a reform. Old ghost messengers were summoned back to Hell to make room for the young.
It was a pity that the ghost messengers did not have a retirement system, nor did they have a lifespan. It was naturally more difficult for the new to replace the old.
A Black Shadow appeared behind the Old Priest. Before the Old Priest could turn his head, he felt a kick on his back. He was sent flying and hit the pillar of the pavilion. His nose was bleeding, and he almost fell into the pond.
The ghost doppelgangers nearby revealed gloating smiles.
“Squeak squeak!!!”
An ear-piercing grinding sound was heard. The man in the suit who had just arrived turned his head. He saw a hairy-faced Thunderlord’s mouth appear in front of him. The little monkey’s body instantly increased in size and turned into a black ape. He slapped the handsome face of the man in the suit until it looked like it was made from molds!
“Bang!”
The man in the suit was sent flying and crashed into a wooden pillar just like the Old Daoist. What was even more exaggerated was that he directly broke the pillar, causing the pavilion at the center of the lake to collapse as well.
The little monkey let out a roar and ignored the group of ghost errand boys. He bent down and lifted the Old Daoist up. Then, he jumped out of the pavilion with a leap. He quickly kicked his legs on the surface of the lake as if he was floating in the water. It brought the Old Priest to the shore.
The old man in sunglasses arrived. When he saw the monkey, he was stunned for a moment. “Why is there a demon monkey here?”
In today’s world, demons were becoming rarer and rarer. Other than a few who could still travel in the human world, most of them were hiding in their own homes.
“Take it down and capture it alive. I want to use the monkey brain to entertain the guests!”
A shadow appeared on the surface of the water. A shadow whizzed over from the shore as well. Two shadows sandwiched the monkey and the Old Daoist in the middle.
they shouted in unison, “The law of death is merciless!”
Black vines grew out from the ground and wrapped around the monkey’s limbs. The monkey struggled non-stop but it felt as if it was sinking deeper.
The monkey was unable to do anything to these black vines. The Old Daoist beside the monkey immediately rummaged through the satchel on the monkey’s body. He took out a stack of talisman papers from within.
Some of them were his. After several times of great consumption, there was not much left of his talisman papers. Most of them were still obtained by the Old Daoist from Xu Qinglang.
Old Xu had been painstakingly drawing talismans at home these past few days. Old Xu wasn’t picky with his food. He had gathered everything he could.
At that moment, Old Xu threw out a stack of talismans in his hand and shouted, “Eat My Fu Qiang Talismans!”
“Hualala…”
The talismans fluttered. They turned into flames in the wind.
The black figure on the shore took two steps back and avoided the flames. The flames were very dispirited like fireworks. They looked gorgeous but were useless.
The Old Daoist took out a few talisman papers from the monkey’s satchel. Since the effect of the talisman papers was not good, he would win with quantity!
“Take this humble Daoist’s Democratic Talisman!”
The talisman papers scattered out. Electric snakes could be vaguely seen flowing within, but the direction of the wind suddenly changed. The talisman papers were blown back by the wind.
“…” the Old Daoist.
“…” Little Monkey.
For a moment, the electric snakes danced like a large-scale electric leakage scene.
“Ahhhhh!!!”
“Squeak squeak squeak squeak!!!”
The Old Priest and monkey were both shocked by the electricity. Unintentionally, this made the black vines that were originally trapping the monkey break. The monkey reached into his satchel without hesitation.
He took out the Yin-yang book, “Squeak squeak squeak!”
Two black and one yellow ray of light instantly appeared. Eighth Aunt and Brother Huang appeared along with the Black Cat, the gatekeeper Spirit of the Yin-yang book.
No one knew when this monkey had even conquered this Black Cat and could summon him to help.
“Roar!!!” Monkey beat his chest as if he was beating a war drum.
Brother Huang and Eighth Aunt rushed towards the Black Shadow on the shore. The Black Cat charged towards the Black Shadow on the surface of the pond alone.
Meanwhile, the monkey took large strides. He charged towards the old man in sunglasses who was standing there in his underpants!
Not far away, Zhou Ze and Lawyer An stood there and watched this scene in disbelief. It wasn’t that they didn’t want to make a move. It was just that it seemed like they didn’t need to make a move anymore.
Brother Monkey called out his little friends and they all began to counterattack.
“That Yin-yang book, is it yours, Boss?” Lawyer An asked.
Zhou Ze nodded.
Lawyer An asked somewhat enviously, “Boss, I quite admire you. How did you think of making an animal world in the first place?”
