Chapter 1 Tian Ji Congee

The Tian Ji congee tasted very delicious, coupled with several plates of exquisite side dishes, this dinner was indeed very wonderful.

After the meal,

Zhou Ze walked out of the bookstore,

Standing on the side of the road,

Lao Xu followed him out and offered a cigarette.

"Aren't you doing the dishes?" Zhou Ze asked curiously.

"Qing is washing them."

"Oh."

Zhou Ze took out a lighter, lit his own cigarette, and then lit one for Lao Xu.

A cigarette after a meal is better than being a god.

Originally,

This should have been a wonderful evening,

After digesting, everyone could wash up and go to bed, and tomorrow would be another wonderful day.

It's a pity,

A peaceful life

Always seems to be broken,

Just like many people always feel itchy and like to pop the bubbles on a bubble wrap.

The phone rang.

In his entire life,

Boss Zhou didn't actually have many people in his contacts.

He picked up the phone,

And saw that it was Lao Zhang calling,

Took a deep breath,

Having already mentally prepared himself for Lao Zhang dragging him into something,

Zhou Ze answered the phone:

"Hello."

"Bos…ss…"

Lao Zhang's voice was very weak.

Zhou Ze's eyes narrowed, and he immediately said:

"Where are you?"

"Police station… behind… the… toilet…"

…

Behind the police station was a small park, actually a slightly larger green belt, which was shared with a residential complex behind it.

Precisely because it was shared with the scenic area, the residential complex dared to open such a large opening outside its wall. Occasionally, people in police uniforms would walk and rest here after dinner at night, which, to a certain extent, improved the security of the residential complex.

There was a public toilet here, built like a western-style house, very high-end;

And at this time, behind the public toilet, Lao Zhang was lying there, in great pain.

His body was covered in blood, and he was rolling around in the muddy flower bed.

At first,

The feeling of pain wasn't so intense,

It was just a pure sense of panic and unease from the heart.

But then,

His body felt like it was being "inflated,"

And his whole person was about to explode.

This area was deserted at night, and Lao Zhang's first reaction was to quickly come here.

"Roar… Roar… Roar…"

A series of suppressed growls came from the flower bed,

Lao Zhang's forehead was pressed against the mud of the flower bed, and his hands were slamming the ground with force.

Zhou Ze arrived very quickly.

The safety of political correctness

Indeed tugged at Boss Zhou's heartstrings at all times.

Along with him were Qing and Lao Xu.

Without having to call out, even before walking in, they could clearly sense Lao Zhang's location.

That oppressive, heavy aura might not have any effect on ordinary people, but for Zhou Ze and the others, it was like a glaring light bulb in the dark night.

Zhou Ze and the others ran over quickly,

Just as they approached the toilet,

Zhou Ze suddenly stopped.

"Buzz!"

The flower bed in front of them suddenly scattered,

And a red figure shot out directly, extremely fast.

Qing stepped forward directly, pressing down with both hands, and a black vortex appeared.

"Clang!"

The person who had rushed out was pressed to the ground.

Qing pointed forward with one hand,

And strands of white silk appeared,

Directly binding Lao Zhang on the ground.

As a new member of the bookstore, Qing did indeed need to do something to prove that he had other uses besides teasing everyone with his social anxiety.

Zhou Ze and Lao Xu quickly stepped forward, preparing to check on Lao Zhang's condition.

However,

Just then,

Zhou Ze's back suddenly stiffened,

And his arms swung directly behind him.

A white shadow was speeding toward them, but it was directly shattered by the baleful aura on Zhou Ze's body!

Qing's gaze also immediately scanned the surroundings, and in the northwest direction, another wisp of white energy appeared, rushing towards them at an extremely fast speed.

"Bind!"

Qing opened his hand and expanded it to the surroundings, and a barrier of blue light was directly erected.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Within a short minute,

Three wisps of white light successively crashed into the barrier,

Even Qing's face was slightly pale when supporting it in this state.

This kind of passive defense, waiting to be beaten, was truly exhausting.

But the problem was,

You simply didn't know where your opponent was.

"What exactly are these white energies?" Qing asked.

Zhou Ze shook his head, he didn't know.

Xu Qinglang on the side seemed to have thought of something, and he looked down at Lao Zhang, who was bound on the ground and seemed to have lost consciousness, and said:

"It seems to be the power of the xiezhi."

That night, Hanba appeared in the bookstore.

First, he had two intimate encounters with the old Taoist priest,

Then Lao Zhang "happened" to appear at the door of the shop,

At that time,

Lao Xu was sitting in the bookstore. Although he couldn't come out to support because of the wound on his chest, he still saw what happened outside.

He remembered that at that time,

When Lao Zhang used the power of the xiezhi on his body to suppress Hanba,

Many strands of white energy gathered from all directions and merged into Lao Zhang's body.

The scene at this time was very similar to that night.

"The power of the xiezhi?" Zhou Ze was a little surprised. "Impossible."

If the xiezhi himself discovered that his avatar was being used by Lao Zhang for "personal use," with the xiezhi's temper and vision, he would be looking for the culprit who caused this to happen in the first place. Tormenting Lao Zhang in this way was pointless.

Moreover,

To take a step back,

The one who chose Lao Zhang to enter Lao Zhang's body in the first place was the xiezhi avatar himself. Boss Zhou, at most, used *sha bi* to put a lock on someone else's door.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

The impact continued,

And wisps of white light continued to gather from all directions,

As if they were playing some kind of moth-to-the-flame game, and they were enjoying it.

"This is too annoying."

Qing said, squinting her eyes.

It must be said that she wasn't nervous at all when she spoke at this time.

Therefore, some people are born to be suitable for being secret agents, or suitable for this kind of life where they lick blood from the edge of a knife.

"If you're tired, you can switch with me." As Zhou Ze spoke, he squatted down and stabbed his fingernails into the ground.

As long as he wanted to, he could immediately establish a defensive barrier based on zombie baleful aura, just like Qing.

Qing shook her head, indicating that she could still hold on.

Zhou Ze then looked at Xu Qinglang, "Wake Lao Zhang up."

Xu Qinglang nodded and immediately took action.

Lao Zhang was already unconscious, and the patches of blood and mud on his body clearly showed how miserable Lao Zhang had been before.

Xu Qinglang took out a needle,

Don't misunderstand,

Lao Xu didn't learn any traditional Chinese medicine,

This needle was just a small magical tool he made for convenience when setting up formations. Sometimes he relied on it for some precise operations when setting up formations. As for stabbing it into someone's body, that feeling…

"Puff!"

The needle pierced into Lao Zhang's neck.

Lao Zhang's body began to tremble,

But Lao Zhang didn't wake up as a result. Instead, his body began to swell rapidly.

"Roar!"

A roar of anger erupted from Lao Zhang's throat, filled with extremely strong anger and unwillingness.

Zhou Ze licked his lips. He had never seen Lao Zhang like this before. It seemed that there was indeed something wrong with the xiezhi avatar in his body.

But even if there was a problem, it shouldn't be such a violent reaction, right?

Lao Xu took out a talisman, intending to forcibly awaken Lao Zhang's consciousness, but the talisman began to burn as soon as it was placed on Lao Zhang's body. Obviously, the effect of the talisman was still too weak.

"I'll do it."

Seeing that Qing could continue to support it, Zhou Ze retracted his fingernails from the ground and patted his upper pocket.

"Sha Bi, come out."

"Buzz!"

*Sha Bi* directly pierced through Zhou Ze's shirt and flew out.

It excitedly hovered around,

Sometimes up, sometimes down, sometimes left, sometimes right.

Zhou Ze pointed his fingertip at Lao Zhang, who was bound,

"Seal the power in his body!"

*Sha Bi*'s tip instantly aimed at Lao Zhang,

And then,

He could clearly feel that

*Sha Bi*'s emotions seemed to have dropped a lot.

Yes,

It thought that when it was awakened, it would be able to seal that strongest big shot again,

Who knew that it would be asked to seal this Wang Cai again?

A pen,

A *sha bi*,

It also had dreams and pursuits, okay!

But it couldn't disobey Zhou Ze's orders,

After circling around a few more times,

*Sha Bi* directly pierced into Lao Zhang's chest.

It really pierced in,

Righteously and without concealment, it directly opened a hole in your body,

It went in!

I don't care if you have a water pipe or a dry pipe,

I'll open the pipe myself!

This scene made Boss Zhou's eyelids twitch, and Lao Zhang's body convulsed even more violently.

Immediately afterward,

A red "Seal" character appeared on Lao Zhang's forehead.

Originally, he thought that the whole matter would be settled because of *Sha Bi*'s action. After all, *Sha Bi* had been used by Zhou Ze to seal Tie Hanhan before.

But this time,

Things seemed to be a little different.

The "Seal" character that *Sha Bi* had condensed was constantly twisting and dissipating. Clearly, even with *Sha Bi*'s power, it still couldn't suppress the power in Lao Zhang's body that was almost going berserk.

At the same time,

The white light that was rapidly approaching from the outside was also increasing in number,

Like cannonballs constantly hitting this place,

And the firing frequency was still increasing!

However,

It was unrealistic to withdraw the defense at this time,

Because these white lights were all aimed at Lao Zhang.

If you didn't help Lao Zhang block these white lights,

Lao Zhang's end would be simple,

Either he would be smashed to death or blown to death,

Or he would directly be blown up!

Looking at his current state, it was obvious that he was already on the verge of exploding before they had arrived. If they had arrived a little later,

They could have picked up the pieces of Lao Zhang that had fallen everywhere in the garden.

"What exactly is going on?"

Even the well-informed Boss Zhou was a little confused.

In fact,

It wasn't just confusion,

It was more because of the limitations of human thinking.

Some directions, some possibilities, they simply wouldn't think about.

Just like when normal police officers encounter some bizarre cases, they will only desperately search for clues to deduce the logic, and will not directly assume that it is "a ghost" from the beginning.

At this time,

Ying Gou's voice came,

With a hint of melancholy,

"Alas… Wang… Cai… is… gone…"
