Midnight Bookstore

The scenery was not bad. There were so many lanterns placed in the river under the night sky. The arrangement of the lanterns made them look more beautiful and artistic than the man-made lanterns.

However, Zhou Ze knew that this meant trouble was coming.

Zhou Ze could not understand why he had so much trouble. Yet, he was a person who hated trouble the most.

Hmm.

If Boss Zhou knew that the girl in front of him was about to leave and was left behind by the Old Priest"s phone call, he would probably punish the Old Priest for helping the entire Xuzhou city strive to create a civilized city by contracting the entire city"s roads.

He didn"t ask who she was. He was too lazy to ask around. Looking at the Resurrection Lily on the river, he could guess a little.

He had already caused trouble for this Resurrection Lily once. This was something that couldn"t be helped. If Zhou Ze was given another choice, he would do it again.

At that time, the flowerbed that cultivated the Resurrection Lily had seriously affected his business in the study room. He had used the souls of ordinary people as nutrients to suck them into dregs. This kind of thing was too cruel.

“Aren"t you afraid?” The tanned girl asked.

“The morals of the world are declining day by day. People"s hearts are not ancient. The thief who stole was caught by the owner. In the end, he had an indifferent expression on his face.”

The tanned girl held the bamboo pole with a helpless look on her face. It was as if she was saying, “There is such a shameless person in this world.”

“I"m not afraid. On the contrary, I"m quite happy,” Zhou Ze replied. “The spider lilies that I got last time are almost finished. I was worried, but someone took the initiative to deliver them to my doorstep.”

“Hehe.” The tanned girl laughed. She pulled the bamboo pole out from under the river. Her pet.i.te body seemed to contain infinite power. She raised the bamboo pole and drew a circle in the air. An ordinary person did not have the strength to do so.

“You just killed a few ghost messengers. Do you think that you"re a big shot?

“That perverted old man who likes to play with puppets is also in your hands, right? Human, don"t always think too highly of yourself.

“If you think too highly of yourself, you"ll fall.”

As she spoke, the tanned girl raised the bamboo pole with one hand and pointed at herself with the other.

“Mother-in-law taught me that no matter how many flowers you plant, you"re only a gardener. I"ll always remember it. I hope that you"ll remember it too. If you don"t want to remember it, I"ll help you remember it!”

The tanned girl swung her arm. The bamboo pole in her hand directly chopped down, giving off a magnificent wind!

Zhou Ze did not move. Yingying, who was beside him, took a step forward and stood in front of Zhou Ze. Her hands were crossed!

“Pa!”

The bamboo pole was caught in Yingying"s hands. The tanned girl swung her arms, but she was unable to control the bamboo pole. Yingying"s gaze was slightly focused. Her arms were slightly trembling.

The two overlord girls were evenly matched.

Zhou Ze was not in a hurry to attack. Instead, he took a few steps back and squatted down. He picked up the cigarette and lighter that Yingying had just thrown on the ground. He leisurely lit a cigarette.

It was not that he was lazy and let the maid run in front to die. It was that Zhou Ze was worried that people were hiding nearby. He was responsible for keeping an eye on his surroundings.

Hmm. He did not seem to have this kind of consciousness and thought in the past?

He shook off the cigarette ash. Now was not the time to think about this. The night had dyed the city. At the same time, it painted some things with a protective color.

The two girls stood in a deadlock around the bamboo pole for a long time. In the end, the raft beneath the tanned girl"s feet broke apart.

She soared into the air. She slid down the bamboo pole at an extremely fast speed with the help of the bamboo pole"s fulcrum. Farming was a tough job. It has always been the same since ancient times. Therefore, her physical fitness was good.

Fortunately, Bai Yingying had enrolled in several cla.s.ses and learned how to fight under the recommendation of Lawyer An. She was no longer a little girl who relied on the brute strength of zombies. Seeing that the other party did not come with good intentions, Yingying decisively took a few steps back. At the same time, she turned sideways and lifted a high kick of taekwondo. She kicked the bamboo pole.

“Ha!”

The bamboo pole was deflected, and so was the dark-skinned girl who was sliding down from the top. However, the girl turned sideways and grabbed the bamboo pole with one hand. In the next moment, the bamboo pole floated on the surface of the water. The girl stepped on the bamboo pole. She did not fall into the water and drown.

This set of movements was f*cking fascinating. It was as if the martial arts scenes you watched when you were a child had been reenacted in front of you. If it wasn"t for the sake of taking care of his Yingying"s feelings, Boss Zhou would have subconsciously clapped and cheered.

The phone was already in his hand but there was no signal. Fortunately, Boss Zhou was already used to this. The truth of horror movies, the phone was always useless.

Zhou Ze threw the cigarette b.u.t.t in his hand on the ground and stepped on it with the sole of his shoe. He still did not move.

There seemed to be nothing unusual nearby. It was usually the biggest anomaly if there was nothing unusual. He and Yingying had just walked over to wash their hands and chat by the river. It was not like they had run into the mountains or the woods.

You had been on the road for so long that there were no pedestrians or even a car, if this isn"t bullying someone"s intelligence, then what is?

“Flowers bloom on the other sh.o.r.e, people go to the afterlife!” The tanned girl seemed to have given up on the idea of using her fist to solve the problem. She felt that the fists of the girl in front of her would be a little harder than her own.

For a moment, the flowers in the river turned into petals and floated towards Yingying. Halfway through, the flowers began to burn. b.a.l.l.s of blue flames mixed with a heart-palpitating aura.

This fire reminded Zhou Ze of the old woman with the cheongsam whom he met when he went to h.e.l.l with Lawyer An. The flames in the old woman"s lantern were similar to this one.

This was karmic fire!

“Yingying, step back!” Zhou Ze immediately stood up.

“Boss, Yingying can withstand it!”

How could she lose to this little hoof in front of the boss! There was a black murderous intent flowing in Yingying"s eyes. She spread her arms and slammed them on the ground!

“Boom!”

The ground nearby started to tremble. The water in front of her splashed very high. At the same time, under the effect of the murderous aura, it condensed into ice and blocked the karmic fire.

“Huh…” Zhou Ze was a little surprised. “Yingying, you"re so powerful?”

“Ang! I slept with you, boss!”

The swarthy girl paused. She was not surprised to see that her fire of karma had been blocked. The zombie in front of her was not simple. It was not easy to deal with her. However, she had more cards up her sleeve.

In the next moment, the swarthy girl opened her hands. A blue fruit appeared in her palm. She swallowed it in one gulp. The swarthy girl"s aura suddenly increased. She seemed to have grown taller and whiter.

“Boss, she broke the rules. She took drugs!” Yingying was very angry. She didn"t want to lose.

Zhou Ze looked behind him. Was he hiding there? “Yingying, stop her for a while.”

Then, Zhou Ze"s fingernails grew out and pierced into the wall of the river bank. He used the force to flip over and jump onto the road.

There was a black figure standing on the opposite side of the road. When he saw Zhou Ze appear, he shook his head helplessly and said, “Amitabha. Benefactor, you seem to have changed quite a bit.”

“You know me?”

The person in the black figure walked out. A cla.s.sic image. Kasaya. Scabby head.

“It"s you?” Zhou Ze came to a sudden realization. He remembered when he destroyed the other sh.o.r.e flower plantation in Tongcheng. He had seen the clone left behind by this monk.

“Amitabha. Have you remembered, almsgiver?”

“Yes.”

“Then, almsgiver, you can go and help your maid get rid of that black girl first. We can catch up later.”

Zhou Ze looked at the scabby-headed monk and did not move.

“Almsgiver, this penniless monk is indeed with her. However, this penniless monk only promised to help set up the enchantment. He did not promise to come down and help her fight. Monks don"t lie. Benefactor, you can be rest a.s.sured about this.”

“Boom!”

By the riverbank, the fight was already fierce.

The tanned girl who had taken drugs had indeed become stronger. She had used her physical body to forcefully beat Bai Yingying.

Yingying had been knocked back several times by her. However, Yingying did not ask Zhou Ze to come down and help. Instead, she gritted her teeth and continued to resist.

“Boom!”

Another punch was thrown. Yingying was sent flying. Her body crashed into the riverbank wall. The riverbank wall had caved in, creating a pit.

The tanned girl stood in front of her and rubbed her fist.

This female zombie was tough.

“You can"t beat me. Admit defeat. I need someone to carry water to my flowerbed. You can do it.”

Yingying swayed her body. She walked out from the wall. She was fuming. At the same time, she said seriously, “Let me tell you. Before my boss gets angry, you should quickly kneel and beg for mercy! Our bookstore still needs one more…”

Yingying was stuck. No, the bookstore was already full of people. “I"m sorry, our bookstore doesn"t seem to lack… Ah, the bookstore is short of a vegetable grower!”

“…” the swarthy maiden.

“The boss is worried that he will run out of the spider lilies" oral liquid. You came just in time. Come back with us to the bookstore and grow vegetables!”

“…” the swarthy maiden.

“Oh, we can take you in but you"re not sleeping in the same room as us! That little hoof, Lin Ke, is no longer with us. I won"t allow you to be the third party.”

“You"ve succeeded in making me laugh, Little Cutie.” The tanned girl laughed twice, “So I feel that if I plant you, you"ll be even cuter.”

As she spoke, the tanned girl pounced over again. She threw a punch.

“Boom!”

Yingying"s two fists blocked the other party"s punch but Yingying"s entire body was also rapidly retreating. The tanned girl did not relax. She continued to exert force.

The tanned girl suddenly noticed that the speed of her opponent"s retreat was slowing down. How could it be?

Yingying slowly raised her lowered head. Her hair began to turn white. Her entire temperament began to undergo a drastic change.

“Do you know that every time the boss gets angry and transforms, it has a great impact on his safety! Why are you all so insensible?! He has already agreed to let you go to the bookstore to grow vegetables. He can allow you to serve the boss with me. This is your honor!”

The white-haired Yingying"s figure paused and completely stopped. Then, she reached out with both hands and grabbed the tanned girl"s shoulders.

Shoulder throw! “Boom!”

The tanned girl was directly thrown onto the ground. She looked confused.
