It has been ten days since the typhoon passed through.
That extremely influential typhoon seemed to have taken away the scorching heat of midsummer as well. It is now September, and many autumn weather features have become increasingly apparent.
Although it is still a little stuffy at noon, it only lasts for a short time. In the mornings and evenings, it is already cool like autumn.
In the wax museum, the black girl was holding roasted corn in one hand and roasted sweet potato in the other, eating them happily.
Deadpool sat next to her, grinning foolishly.
The black girl, with food in her mouth, rolled her eyes at Deadpool in annoyance and kicked him.
"Mmmmm, Mmmmm!"
Although the words were unclear, Deadpool understood what Black Girl meant. He pulled his lower body out of the mud, walked to the side, picked up a basket of fruits that Black Girl had picked and washed in the morning, turned around, smiled foolishly at Black Girl, and walked out of the wax museum.
It was past noon and it was already afternoon. A large basket of fruits was indeed not light, but for Deadpool, it was nothing.
After crossing a small green belt, you will reach the street of South Street.
At the entrance of the pharmacy, Fangfang, wearing a wedding dress, was holding hands and talking to several other nurses.
Today is Fangfang's wedding day. Although her belly is already clearly bulging, she and her husband have not had time to hold the wedding.
Her husband is stationed at the border, and even Fangfang herself doesn't know his specific work, but it is really not easy for him to come back for a vacation.
Fortunately, Fangfang herself is open-minded and understands her husband's work. After all, if she didn't have that awareness, she would not choose to be a military wife.
Fangfang saw Deadpool passing by carrying a fruit basket, and trotted over enthusiastically, handing him two boxes of wedding candy.
"Here, let's celebrate together."
The wax museum is very close to here, and Deadpool and Black Girl often appear in the bookstore, so Fangfang has been familiar with them for a long time.
Although she didn't know their true identity, Fangfang knew that the fruits they grew were really good. In short, they were much more delicious than the fruits bought on the street.
After the pregnancy reactions started to become obvious, Hei Xiaonv specially picked some plums for Fangfang. Fangfang couldn't stop eating the jar of sour plums all day long.
When my parents-in-law saw this, they were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.
Deadpool accepted the wedding candy and turned his back to Fangfang.
"Eat, eat, eat fruit."
Fangfang didn't hesitate. She said "hmm" and reached out to take a few big pears, but after thinking about it, she put the pears down.
He took a few apples and a bunch of grapes instead.
"Let's have dinner together tonight. It's at the Nantong Hotel in front. It's not far away."
Deadpool nodded stupidly.
Fangfang didn't know whether he understood or not, because she had always treated him as a mentally retarded person.
Of course, there is no such thing as discrimination here. Although people may look silly, they have really good hearts.
Before Deadpool was about to leave, he saw Gou Xin peeking outside at the ward door out of the corner of his eye.
However, Deadpool doesn't care much about this. In fact, there are really not many things he cares about now. Although his daily life is simple, it is also fulfilling.
Fangfang came back with some fruit, and Gou Xin immediately retreated back into the ward.
The door of the ward was quickly pushed open, and Fangfang placed some grapes and an apple on the bedside table.
"I'm sorry to always eat your food."
"Don't be polite, just eat." Fangfang didn't care about it.
"Are you getting married today? I'll transfer the betrothal gift to you."
"No, no, no, no, thanks to you, our pharmacy's performance has been very good in the past two years, and our dividends are also very high. Otherwise, my husband and I would not be able to raise money to buy a wedding house. You have helped me so much, how can I have the nerve to take your money
If I really took your money, would that be a human thing to do? "
“… …” Hook the salary.
Over there, Deadpool had already opened the door and walked into the bookstore.
Xu Qinglang just walked out of the kitchen and saw Deadpool carrying some fruits. He walked over with a smile, helped him put down the basket, and took an orange and peeled it.
Deadpool nodded with a grin and pointed at the fruit.
"Okay, thank you."
“Hehehe.”
Deadpool turned around with a smile, pushed open the bookstore and left.
Xu Qinglang walked behind the bar while eating an orange, and happened to meet Yingying walking down the stairs holding a bed sheet.
"Did it rain? Why are the sheets so wet?"
As Xu Qinglang spoke, he deliberately leaned over to look at the glass door, but it didn't look like it was raining.
When Yingying heard this, her face turned red instantly, and she quickly held the bed sheet and pushed open the bathroom door.
“Ahhh!!!”
From the bathroom, there was a scream from Lao Dao.
Yingying opened the door and then immediately closed it.
"The Taoist priest and the monkey were bathing in there. You moved too quickly and didn't have time to remind them."
As he spoke, Xu Qinglang threw two more orange slices into his mouth.
The old Taoist didn't dare to dawdle any longer. He immediately wiped himself, put on his clothes, opened the door and came out. He smiled embarrassedly at Yingying, then picked up a dry towel and a hair dryer to blow the monkey's hair.
Yingying walked into the bathroom and started washing the sheets.
Outside, Xu Qinglang finished eating the oranges and called out to the Taoist priest:
"Master, there are some fruits here, help yourself. I'll go buy some pork ribs and stew them in the evening."
"Okay, okay."
The Taoist priest agreed while continuing to blow the little monkey's hair.
The little monkey lay on the bar, arms and legs spread, enjoying the blow-drying service.
Seeing how comfortable this thing was, the old Taoist couldn't help but pat it on the head and scolded it with a smile:
"You idiot, look how I am convinced by you."
"Come in."
At the door, Lawyer An took the initiative to push open the door of the study and led two strange middle-aged men in.
The Taoist priest continued to blow the monkey's hair while looking over there and shouted:
"Lawyer An, it's not easy for you to come home this time."
Lawyer An didn't come back this week.
Of course, they definitely didn't camp outside, but there were a lot of things going on in hell. The Palace of Equality had just been restored, and there was a lot of work to do, including selecting, appointing, cultivating and developing confidants.
Many people in the bookstore have actually already started working in Hell, such as Lin Ke and the others, oh, and the disfigured man brought back from Sanya. He is the only one left in the clan, and it would be unsightly if he stayed in the bookstore anyway, so he might as well just take a job in Hell and let him wander around.
"You can't say that. This is my home. How can I not come back?"
While responding to the old Taoist, Lawyer An gestured to the two middle-aged men who came in with him to sit on the sofa.
The Taoist priest blew the monkey's hair and threw the towel to the monkey.
"Wipe it again yourself."
Then, the old Taoist made two cups of tea, brought them over and placed them on the coffee table.
"I want coffee."
Lawyer An reminded them while pushing two cups of tea in front of the two guests he brought with him.
"I know."
The Taoist nodded and glanced at the two people Lawyer An brought in. They both looked to be in their forties. One was okay, but his face was a little pink, which showed that he had taken good care of himself.
The other one was at the other extreme, with a face as black as charcoal.
Because it was so dark, the old Taoist couldn't help but look at it a few more times, and at the same time couldn't help but teasing:
"Hey, little brother, you are as evil as Justice Bao."
The middle-aged man with very dark skin picked up the teacup, nodded, and said:
“Good eyesight.”
“… …” old Taoist.
Turn around,
Lift your feet.
Take a step,
The old Taoist felt his legs becoming a little weak.
OMG…
I should have thought of it earlier.
Lawyer An turned around, pointed to the landscape painting on the wall behind him, and said:
“It is this painting.”
The two middle-aged men stood up immediately, looking a little restrained.
"Since I'm here, I have to pay my respects."
The black-faced man said.
"That's right, that's right." Another middle-aged man echoed.
Lawyer An nodded, made a gesture to do as he pleased, and then crossed his legs nonchalantly.
King Yama Bao and Emperor Song Yu Ze straightened their clothes, walked up to the scroll, and began to pay homage with great ceremony.
"Hello, please sign for the express delivery." A courier boy came to the door.
"Oh, okay."
Lawyer An stood up, walked to the door, and took the express delivery. The recipient was Yingying, and the sender seemed to be an online store selling medical supplies.
This made Lawyer An feel a little strange. If he wanted to buy medical supplies, his own pharmacy was right next door. Was there any need to send it by express delivery
The old Taoist priest had already walked over with Lawyer An's super cup. He caught a glimpse of two people kneeling and worshipping in front of the scroll from the corner of his eye, and his eyelids twitched again.
Don’t watch, don’t watch, just pretend you don’t know who they are, don’t know, don’t know…
"Whose delivery is this?" the old Taoist asked when he saw Lawyer An holding the delivery box.
"Yingying's."
"What did you buy?"
"How can you privately dismantle someone else's car..."
"It says pregnancy test on the box inside."
At this time, the middle-aged man with a dark face walked over and said.
A courier box certainly can't stop his eyes.
At this time, Emperor Song Yu reached out and patted Yan Luowang Bao on the shoulder, signaling him to shut up.
He knew that his colleague probably really didn't understand some of the new things that had emerged in the world in recent decades.
It was just like when the Bodhisattva asked King Li of Chujiang to buy a few boxes of batteries when he returned to life.
Ahem…
Lawyer An placed the courier box on the bar counter and muttered:
"It's not even ten days yet, there's no need for this. We need to find a time to ask Lin Ke to come over and give her some basic knowledge on physiology."
Well, although Lin Ke’s physical condition is not suitable now, he has rich experience.
The old Taoist took the little monkey back upstairs. To be honest, although Lawyer An is now considered the King of Hell, some things are engraved in his bones. The old Taoist really doesn't dare to sit and chat with the two real Kings of Hell.
Lawyer An led the two devils and sat down again.
"That person, isn't here?" Emperor Song Yu asked tentatively.
"Upstairs, I guess."
"Oh, okay." Emperor Song Yu seemed a little reserved.
"It's okay, relax, we are all family. My boss is a very good person and always teaches us to be kind to others."
"Yes, it is."
"That sword..." Yan Luowang Bao just opened his mouth and noticed that Lawyer An's eyes were suddenly wrong.
Emperor Song Yu glanced at King Yan Luo Bao with some disdain. Alas, there is a synonym for being iron-faced and impartial, and that is not knowing how to behave.
Lawyer An pondered for a moment and said:
"That sword is naturally in the hands of our boss. What's the matter? Is there any problem?"
"I want to... take a look." Yan Luo Wang Bao said.
Lawyer An's eyebrows twitched and he shook his head.
"I think too much."
He just couldn't afford to put it at ease. After that day, he hadn't had a chance to take a look at the sword, and he didn't know where the boss had hidden the sword.
In fact, even though Lawyer An now acts like he has a very close relationship with his boss in front of these two devils, the truth is that since that day, Lawyer An has not dared to go back to the bookstore very often because he is afraid of his boss.
After all... God knows who the boss is now
People always have an instinctive fear of the unknown, and for Lawyer An, that unknown is a great terror that can turn him into ashes in the blink of an eye.
"How disrespectful! How can you show the tool of rules to others casually?" Emperor Yu of Song Dynasty could not help but scold his colleague beside him.
Lawyer An raised his hand to calm down and help Yan Luo Wang Bao out of the embarrassment:
"It's not that I can't be flexible. I'll find a chance to talk to the boss. After all, the two elder brothers have contributed a lot to build the Palace of Equality so quickly.
Since we are family, there is no need to be too polite."
Everyone carried the fancy sedan chair, and the two Yama Kings, even Yama King Bao, was smiling at Lawyer An at this moment.
For Lawyer An, being able to sit face to face with the two devils and call them brothers was a feeling that made him numb to the bone.
Yan Luowang Bao is obviously more honest. He is sincere in everything he does and does. Therefore, when Ying Gou swept through hell for the first time, he was the only one who survived and did not suffer a blow.
Of course, it is not difficult to understand why he was excluded. He was squeezed out of his position in the first hall.
"After countless years of planning, we finally succeeded. To be honest, every time I recall the scenes on the sea that day, my heart cannot calm down.
The divided soul became the main soul, and the main soul became the divided soul. This was hidden from the people of the world, from the Xuanyuan Sword, and most importantly, from himself.
When the Xuanyuan Sword comes down, after the sword pierces, there will definitely be traces of the split soul left on the sword god;
By then, the main soul will automatically awaken due to the demise of the split soul, and with the traces of the split soul remaining on the Xuan-Yuan Sword, it will use this as a response and connection, and forcibly extract the Xuan-Yuan Sword again.
Such means and such a layout are truly awe-inspiring.”
It can be heard that Yanluowang Bao is expressing his feelings sincerely.
"From our perspective, it is the result of years of forbearance, but in reality, it is just like a child entering school and studying hard for ten years in order to achieve success in the future.
In his eyes, time is a completely different concept from ours."
Emperor Song Yu continued.
Hearing this, Lawyer An nodded and raised the Super Cup in his hand.
road:
"Cheers to the boss! Long live the boss!"
The two Yamas also raised their teacups, and the three of them clinked their cups.
Lawyer An raised his head and drank:
“Gulp gulp gulp…”
At this time,
A figure walked down the stairs.
"boss!"
Lawyer An stood up immediately.
Emperor Song Yu and King Yama Bao also stood up quickly and looked at Zhou Ze who was walking down.
Lawyer An was just worried in his heart, but these two devils showed their anxiety and fear on their faces.
It’s not because they are so despicable, but no matter who you are, if you see a terrifying existence that can cut you like a leek, I’m afraid you will no longer be able to remain calm.
Zhou Ze seemed to have something on his mind. He just glanced at Lawyer An once more, then pushed open the door of the bookstore and walked out.
From beginning to end, he didn't pay much attention to the two Yamas standing next to Lawyer An.
But the two Yamas did not show any dissatisfaction at all, and even felt a sense of relief.
After Zhou Ze left,
Yan Luo Wang Bao and Song Di Wang Yu said goodbye temporarily, because according to what Lawyer An said to them on the way, the more courtesy, the less blame.
What this means is, don't come empty-handed, bring at least some rare items.
The tacky the better, the more expensive the better.
In fact, there are many hidden treasures in the world.
With the advice from Lawyer An and having met the real person, the two Yamas now plan to leave the bookstore temporarily and go look for gifts.
One said that there was a jade vein in Zhejiang Province not far from Tongcheng, and he went to look for it.
Another one said that in the depths of the Bohai Sea, there was a thousand-year-old night-shining pearl hidden in the crevices of the water, and he went to get it.
He sent the two Yamas away.
Lawyer An then sat down.
He took a tissue from the coffee table and wiped the sweat off his face.
This won’t do. This won’t do. No matter who the boss is now or what his personality is, no matter whether the boss has changed or not, I cannot distance myself from him.
At the same time, Lawyer An kept warning himself in his heart not to be complacent or to seek quick success and success, but to forge ahead bravely and keep up the good work. He had already licked out a position as the King of Hell, and he had to believe that as long as his tongue skills were strong, he could grind an iron rod into a needle!
Maybe, I can lick out a new generation of Lord of the Mansion
However, if I become the Lord of the Prefecture, where should I open the Taoist temple
Taishan is not suitable. First of all, he has to save some face for the person in the painting. What if he suddenly wants to go out for some fresh air one day and returns to his hometown to find that his old house has been occupied by him? The consequences...
Moreover, Mount Tai has now been contracted by the judge who served Di Ting in bathing, and is now planted with crops, which can be called the cultivation base of hell.
There is no place to build a palace anymore.
Just as Lawyer An was immersed in his fantasy, the door of the bookstore was pushed open again, and Old Zhang walked in. He sat directly opposite Lawyer An, which was the seat where the two Yamas had sat before.
"Those two just now, are they Yan Luo?"
The face of one of them is so recognizable that it is hard not to recognize him.
Lawyer An nodded.
He knew that since that night, the overall situation had been decided. Old Zhang had completely become a "mother-in-law" and wished he could stay around his great-grandson's wife all day long to provide her with secret protection.
He was very nervous about the arrival of the new generation of the Zhang family, and even resigned from his position as a deacon in the Palace of King Pingdeng.
"You are really amazing now. You are dealing with all kinds of people. By the way, you are not going to deal with the remaining three attendants. Those Yamas are eager to fight."
"Anyway, they can't cause any trouble. If we keep them, they can still act as a check and balance. After all, we have a weak foundation. Let's build up the team first. Forcing all those Yama Luo to come back may not be a good thing for us."
"Well, that's right. The formation looks like that of a big shot."
Lawyer An chuckled and raised his Super Cup again:
“Gulp gulp gulp…”
Old Zhang frowned slightly. These days he would even check what his great-grandson's wife eats in advance to prevent any accidents, so he is quite sensitive about food safety.
I was too lazy to say it before, but now it doesn’t matter. I just said to Lawyer An:
"If you keep drinking this, you'll end up with a stomach full of stones."
Lawyer An rolled his eyes at Old Zhang with disdain.
Pointing to the Super Cup in his hand,
Squinted his eyes,
He showed a meaningful look,
road:
"I drank a Yama."
… … …
After Zhou Ze left the bookstore, he didn't walk far. He turned and entered the department store next door.
It is called the Department Store. More than ten years ago, it was considered a landmark building in Tongcheng.
Of course, although it doesn’t stand out like before, it is located right in the center of the South Street business district and still maintains its own tone.
Zhou Ze strolled around casually, intending to buy some jewelry or something, but after looking around, he couldn't find any style that satisfied him.
In the end, I felt it was too troublesome and decided not to buy it. I just took the elevator to the top floor and then walked up to the rooftop.
Originally, he had made an appointment to meet a woman here, but when he walked up, he saw two women.
One, wearing a white dress and holding a red umbrella.
Behind the girl stood a middle-aged woman with a graceful figure and a slightly plump figure, wearing a green cheongsam.
There was no fluctuation in Zhou Ze's eyes as he stood there silently.
The woman in cheongsam smiled slightly.
Some are cautious,
Opening his mouth:
"I just wanted to come and see you."
Hanba, who was standing next to him, heard this and immediately said:
"Now that you've seen it, go back to your Naihe Bridge!"
Meng Po, who was wearing a cheongsam, looked at Zhou Ze deeply again, and seemed to be really satisfied. She turned around, disappeared, and returned to hell.
On the rooftop, only Hanba and Zhou Ze were left.
"Father's sword finally fell into your hands."
Zhou Ze remained silent.
"You hid it from me so hard. I really couldn't tell it apart before. The you at that time was actually just a clone formed by a drop of your blood essence. They are so similar, so similar."
Facing Hanba's confession, Zhou Ze continued to remain silent.
"You have quite a few women around you now."
Hanba slowly walked towards Zhou Ze and continued:
"That female zombie, don't you see your generation? You are the real ancestor of the family. Come on, you men like to eat something tender anyway.
But seven days ago, I sensed a little bit of the aura of Xuanyuan Sword again. You actually used the Xuanyuan Sword to cure that mortal woman
That's the Xuanyuan Sword, you're really willing to give it up."
The person Hanba was talking about was naturally Doctor Lin.
In fact, Dr. Lin’s illness is not really a problem, it’s just AIDS.
But it is indeed very difficult to cure AIDS without affecting her life and her daily living.
Fortunately, the Xuanyuan Sword came in handy.
Although this may be like using a cannon to kill a mosquito, the sword is in Zhou Ze's hand anyway, so he has the final say on how to use it.
"I don't mind, I really don't mind. In fact, I'm jealous. I'm jealous of the woman who just stood next to me on the Naihe Bridge. She was one step ahead of me..."
Having said this, Hanba lowered his head as if shy, putting on a pitiful posture.
only,
She was facing a man who didn't understand romance.
Zhou Ze turned around, with his back to Hanba, and held the railing with both hands, as if he was looking out.
The sky quickly changed from afternoon to evening, and the outline of the moon was already visible on the horizon.
"No matter what, I am willing to let my father's sword be in your hands. Only you can come up with the idea of using the split soul as a scapegoat to attract the Xuanyuan Sword to kill you and at the same time condense the split soul's blood on the Xuanyuan Sword.
As long as that drop of blood continues to be attached to the Xuanyuan Sword, the Xuanyuan Sword will always be connected to you and will never be able to escape your control.
Really, Yinggou, you have changed, you have become very strange to me, because before you, you would not think about doing this, nor would you plan so much. "
Hanba kept talking, even if she didn't get any response, she would just think that the man was just not good at expressing himself.
after all,
In this world, she is the only one who is worthy of him.
"I still remember when father brought you back to the tribe for the first time, you just sat there holding the meat and wolfed it down. When I saw you, you just smiled at me foolishly."
Hanba fell into memories.
"At that time, I was really curious, and I was wondering why my father brought back a fool.
Later, the war started. You were just a small soldier at first. Later, you became stronger and stronger and began to lead troops. Later, as the tribe grew stronger, the number of soldiers under your command also increased.
I still remember the day when you stopped Chi You. You came back covered in wounds and I bandaged your wounds myself. I blamed you for being so stupid. Why didn't you let someone else do such a dangerous task as covering the retreat and facing Chi You
What you answered me was that other people were not worthy of fighting Chi You.
At that time, I felt that you had changed, but it was not until that day that I realized how much you had changed.
It has become unfamiliar to me, even scary.
You said, how nice it would be if everything could be frozen at the very beginning.
On the day Chiyou was beheaded, the whole clan celebrated.
That day, father went to the back mountain to look for you.
You have always believed that your father asked you to marry me in order to tie you down and make you continue to serve him until death.
No, it really wasn't. The war was over, and my father had become the ruler of the world. Later, even the Immortal Court couldn't withstand his sword.
In fact, I was the one who asked my father to go that day.
But that day, you also rejected your father's proposal. Do you know how sad I was crying alone that night when the whole family was celebrating the victory? "
Speaking of which,
Hanbao smiled sadly,
"When you betrayed your father and went to hell alone, I wished you could look back and look at me, or even ask me to go with you.
I would rather not be a princess anymore. I would rather be in hell with you, lying on our own sea of hell, sitting on the throne of bones that belongs to us."
Hanba took a deep breath. At this moment, she was really no different from an ordinary woman.
"Originally, I thought I didn't have much time left, because I wasn't sure if I could survive my father's sword. Fortunately, the Xuanyuan Sword is in your hands now, and the sword hanging over our heads has disappeared.
Ying Gou, I have a lot of time, we both have a long time to live together, I can wait until the day you are willing to accept me, I believe that day will not be too far away. "
After that,
Hanba looked at Zhou Ze's back.
After waiting for a long time,
Seeing that Zhou Ze had no intention of turning around or talking,
Hanba showed a sad smile on his face.
"I'm waiting for you."
As soon as the words fell,
The figure of Hanba disappeared.
Appeared directly a hundred miles away.
At this time,
Hanba's face was already filled with resentment!
"Ying Gou, you would rather care about those little bitches who are not worthy of being on the stage than to look at me more
Okay, just wait, I want to see how long you can protect those little bitches. Don’t give me a chance, otherwise, when my strength is fully recovered, I will kill those little bitches one by one.
I want to see if you will regret your indifference to me by then!"
However,
Just as Hanba was about to continue his next step of "so close yet so far away" to return to his eternal resting place for countless years,
Her figure,
Suddenly stopped.
She raised her head.
In the eyes,
The previous resentment had long since dissipated, and was instead filled with intense astonishment.
Because she saw that the moon above her head had turned into a sword without her knowing when!
"Impossible, this is impossible, Xuanyuan Sword, Xuanyuan Sword, shouldn't this sword be in your hand? How could it return to the sky!
Impossible, Ying Gou, how could you do this, why would you do this!
That was the sword you spent countless years planning to get, how could you throw it away, how could it be possible! "
No matter how many impossibilities there are, no matter how unbelievable they are, no matter how many puzzles and shocks there are,
The sword,
Indeed, I have returned to heaven clearly.
and,
Facing the drought demon on the ground,
Cut it off!
… … …
On the rooftop,
Zhou Ze continued to hold the railing with both hands and look into the distance.
It's night.
The evening breeze is pleasant.
Zhou Ze raised his head and looked at the bright moon above his head.
Suddenly he smiled and sang:
"Look at this moon, it's bright and clear, just like this bowl, big and round."
Maybe it was because the singing was too out of tune, which made people feel too tormented and ashamed.
From Zhou Ze's heart,
An extremely impatient voice sounded:
"Watch... the door... the dog..."
