Chapter 31 Biu!
Zhou Ze couldn't answer this question. Whether the little loli from Rong City was telling the truth or not, he didn't have the qualifications to question her deeply.
It was frustrating, but that was the reality.
Although he'd heard from the little loli about that "kindred spirit" in Rong City who tried to act as a judge of the living as a ghost,
Zhou Ze was envious and respectful, but his end was also lamentable.
When you didn't have the capital and strength to stand on the same line as the other party, you didn't even have the qualification for equal dialogue, so where did the qualification to question come from?
"Boring." The little loli shook her head, but then smiled, "But that's what I admire about you."
The little loli continued to hold the book with both hands, as if she was about to fall asleep, and murmured:
"You're the most self-aware person I've ever met."
"............" Zhou Ze.
Was that a compliment or a criticism?
"I'm leaving." The little loli was getting sleepier and more tired.
"I have one more question, besides eating and sleeping, are there any other ways to solve or improve things?" This was the question Zhou Ze wanted to ask most and the problem he most urgently wanted to solve.
After being resurrected by possessing a corpse, he could perfectly integrate into social life at all other times, except for these two issues.
"From the perspective of stability, an assembled computer isn't as good as one with original parts." The little loli shook her head weakly, "As for sleeping, unless you have an infernal creature crawling out of hell beside you, providing an environment similar to hell's magnetic field, you simply can't rest.
You're originally a person from hell, lingering in the mortal world, which is like suffering from a disease caused by a change of environment, and the most severe kind. You can still rely on special methods to solve it because you have some special qualities, but others simply can't fall asleep. Not sleeping for half a year will almost drive them crazy, drive them to death!
So, you're already considered lucky."
The little loli gave two weak "hehe" sounds, "If I didn't go back, you could hold me to sleep."
"............" Zhou Ze.
"As for eating, I still can't get used to the things of the human world."
After saying all this,
The little loli's head tilted to the side, and she fell asleep directly. Zhou Ze reached out to support the little loli. Seeing that she was still breathing and her body was normal, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhou Ze used to be a doctor, so he could naturally see that the girl was fine.
This little one was Wang Ke's daughter, he couldn't just watch something happen to her.
However, what disappointed Zhou Ze was that the scene of the little loli leaving was a little too ordinary.
"Shouldn't there be a 'biu' sound and she'd escape into the ground? Falling asleep directly counts as going back?" Zhou Ze muttered to himself.
Not grand, not worth watching, just like drawing a talisman on the palm of his hand;
No sense of ritual at all, no gravitas.
The little loli in his arms suddenly opened her eyes and said, "Okay."
Zhou Ze was stunned. She was pretending to be asleep!
In the next moment,
A dense Yin energy that seemed to be turning into water droplets surged out from the little loli's body. Even though the central air conditioner was on in Zhou Ze's bookstore, the temperature dropped in an instant;
The door was closed, but gusts of cold wind were stirred up inside, along with the sound of pages being turned.
The vast shadow covered this area, like the revival of a ferocious beast, bringing only the pressure that ghosts could perceive.
Zhou Ze's fingernails grew out again after being stimulated, and a feeling of blood rushing through his body was generated, as if the power in his body was echoing the other party.
Then,
It really was,
With a "biu" sound,
All the Yin energy instantly surged into a point underground,
In an instant,
The clouds dissipated,
The temperature rose,
Sunlight shone down,
In a trance, it seemed to be echoing the line:
It's as if the birds have finished eating and flown back to the forest, leaving behind a vast expanse of white, truly clean!
…………
In the evening, Xu Qinglang brought dinner. The sour plum juice was gone, replaced with bitter gourd juice.
"There's no sour plum juice,
Let's make do with bitter gourd juice for now."
Xu Qinglang said a little embarrassed. During the day, he saw the little loli and was scared out of his wits.
In fact, he himself understood that he was very cowardly and useless.
When his parents were taken away by the little loli, he didn't dare to go to the little loli to settle accounts, let alone resist. He could only kneel there and beg like a weakling.
Moreover, he even blamed Zhou Ze for this and tried to poison Zhou Ze's food.
Now, Xu Qinglang had figured it out. So what if he was cowardly? He was just a minor xuan shi with yin-yang eyes due to his physical fitness. It was too much to ask him to face the hell's ghost messengers; he really didn't have the guts.
In fact, the little loli could completely punish him for privately retaining his parents' souls, deducting his lifespan, or even directly detaining his soul and taking him back to hell.
They treated him like a fart and let him go,
There was no need for him to jump around any more.
The dead could not be resurrected, and his previous behavior was indeed against the natural order.
Zhou Ze finished his meal and put a thousand yuan in front of Xu Qinglang.
"This is the money for the previous meals, plus the future ones. Tell me when you run out."
"Yo, you've got money?" Xu Qinglang finally showed a smile on his face, and then pushed the money back in front of Zhou Ze, and said softly, "Life isn't easy, don't be extravagant, you have to take care of your home."
"............" Zhou Ze.
"I'm a man with more than twenty apartments, I don't care about your little money."
"............" Zhou Ze.
Zhou Ze wanted to say that he would soon be rich too. As long as he earned more money from the dead and burned paper money at the door, some idiot would run to his shop and throw his wallet as a Wealth Bringer.
But then Zhou Ze thought about it,
Even if he burned a truckload of hell money, he wouldn't be able to burn out twenty-odd apartments, right?
Unless an armored truck had an accident in front of his store...
"I'm planning to change stores, what about you?" Xu Qinglang suddenly said.
"Change to where?"
"Anywhere is better than here." Xu Qinglang smiled, "I plan to move the noodle shop to the county below. The layout is a little smaller, but at least it's more popular."
"I'll think about it." Zhou Ze said perfunctorily.
"Okay, I'll go first."
Xu Qinglang took the dishes and chopsticks and walked out of the underworld shop.
Zhou Ze looked at the symbol on his palm while trimming his nails. It was evening, but no customers had come in. Zhou Ze was a little anxious. He didn't see any hope before, so he lived one day at a time. Now that he saw a glimmer of making money, his subjective initiative naturally increased.
Why aren't there any customers yet?
Didn't they say I'm an incandescent lamp,
That I could blind their ghost eyes?
Come on,
Could it be that they were all blinded and got lost?
"Creak............"
The door of the bookstore was pushed open, and two women walked in.
One was very young, about the same age as Zhou Ze (Xu Le), and the other was probably almost fifty, like a mother and daughter.
Zhou Ze recognized the young woman.
She was his first customer since opening. He remembered that she came in with a corgi at the time, sat for a while and read a book, and left him a hundred yuan, which was his first income.
However, this time the woman didn't have a corgi, but brought her mother.
"Oh, sit here, be careful, see if there's anything dirty on it." The woman said to the girl.
The girl bent down, took out a paper towel, wiped the plastic stool, and then sat down dejectedly.
"Take a book and read it, honey, there are no problems that can't be solved, and no obstacles that can't be overcome in life. Take it easy." The woman comforted her from the side.
"Oh." The girl sighed, her face still dejected, obviously not listening.
"Honey, take a book and read it, read a book, and you'll forget about time." The woman squatted beside the girl and continued to comfort her, with an attitude of pitiful parents.
Zhou Ze was still trimming his nails, ignoring them.
At this time, the girl looked at Zhou Ze and said:
"Boss."
The girl called out very gently, looking pitiful, as if she had lost her love and was at her most vulnerable.
"You're the boss, right?" The woman looked at Zhou Ze, looking like a hen protecting her chicks.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Ze asked.
"What are your intentions?" The woman asked warily, "Honey, ignore him."
The girl was silent for a while, but finally opened her mouth and said:
"Beibei is lost."
Beibei should be the name of that corgi.
"Lost?" Zhou Ze asked.
"Yes, lost." The girl's eyes were red, as if she had thought of her beloved dog, and tears welled up again, "It secretly ran out of the house when I was cleaning the house, and I didn't notice."
"If it's lost, it's lost, just buy another one, what's the point of crying?" The woman comforted her.
Zhou Ze stood up and walked over.
"What are you doing?" The woman pointed at Zhou Ze.
"It will be found." Zhou Ze ignored the woman and comforted the girl.
"Yeah."
The girl cried, then reached out and hugged Zhou Ze's shoulder.
"You bastard, she lost her dog, not her man, why are you sticking your nose in!" The woman pretended to rush over and hit Zhou Ze.
"Is it your place to speak here?"
A black light appeared in Zhou Ze's eyes,
The woman immediately screamed and curled up on the ground, not daring to say anything more.
"What's wrong?" The girl raised her head blankly, she didn't know who Zhou Ze was talking to just now.
Zhou Ze let go of the girl. When people's emotions are at their lowest, that is when the three lamps on their body are the weakest, and it is easy for dirty things to stick to them.
Fortunately, this woman may have been lonely for too long and likes to talk, but she is not a bad person.
"I posted a missing dog notice online, and I want to find it back." The girl took out her mobile phone and showed Zhou Ze a photo of the dog.
"Boss, have you seen it?"
Zhou Ze smiled bitterly. His business was so deserted that people didn't come, let alone dogs.
But the woman who had just been scared to the ground by Zhou Ze shouted at this time:
"I've seen this dog, I've seen this dog, in my neighborhood;
When my husband and that little fox spirit were doing things, I couldn't stay at home,
So I ran to the neighborhood to relax and saw someone walking this dog!"
