"What's going on?"
The old Taoist touched his head and felt a little uncomfortable when he saw the boy trembling with fear.
It's not that the old Taoist is too kind-hearted. No matter how kind-hearted one is, there is always a limit. The old Taoist just simply wonders what this child has been through that he is still restless even after becoming a ghost.
As the saying goes,
When a person dies, it is like a lamp going out.
Life was full of hardships and pains.
At worst, I could just jump off the rooftop.
everything,
And you will be liberated.
In fact,
Since the old Taoist started working in the bookstore, he has encountered many ghosts who came to his door. No matter how they died or how they lived, they were generally well-behaved after death.
After all, this is the local ghost catcher's execution ground. With the boss's powerful pressure, the ghosts are all trembling with fear.
This doll,
As soon as I turned on the light after entering, I started to yell.
Now I am even more frightened like this,
It’s a sin.
The old Taoist quickly took the toy from the little monkey's hand, so that the monkey would not be scared and unable to travel peacefully.
"He must have been suppressed and tortured for a long time when he was alive." Xu Qinglang guessed from the side. Then, he looked at Zhou Ze and asked, "But there are many ghosts who died tragically and came to the bookstore. Such an extreme case is really rare."
Zhou Ze took a sip of wine and said:
"Being tortured for too long, some psychological trauma has already penetrated deep into the soul. The ghosts in the Japanese living research institute under the police station were almost the same."
“It’s not that exaggerated, is it?”
Xu Qinglang shrugged, somewhat unconvinced, and continued:
“That was during the war.”
In this day and age, if you want to find this kind of torture, there shouldn't be such an environment. Even if you go to a black coal mine, it won't end up like this.
"Cutting flesh with a soft knife is also painful, or even more painful."
Zhou Ze put down his wine glass and clapped his hands. To be honest, there were many ghosts who had been sent away. The dead always had stories, and most of them were based on negative emotions such as sadness and nostalgia.
If you listen to the stories many times, you will develop resistance.
What happened to this child
Zhou Ze was too lazy to care.
He is just a ghost messenger, not Superman.
"You've eaten and drunk, now I'm sending you on your way. Don't worry, you won't be afraid when you get to the underworld. When you cross the Naihe Bridge, say hello to that young lady with me."
Saying,
Zhou Ze drew a circle in front of his face.
A dark box appears.
The gates of hell were opened.
After sending people on their way,
I can take a shower and rest.
I went to Disney this morning and looked around in the afternoon. I am really tired.
"Don't shock me! Don't shock me!
We will be good, we will be very good, we will definitely be very good, we will be very good, don’t shock me, don’t shock me!”
The boy kept praying.
He almost knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
"Boss, that's not right. He said 'we'."
The old Taoist immediately stopped Zhou Ze and said.
"You are hard of hearing. I didn't hear it."
Zhou Ze bypassed the old Taoist priest and planned to capture the boy's soul.
Hmmmm,
This is a bookstore.
The business is to send ghosts to hell.
It’s not like there’s a Bao Qingtian in Kaifeng!
"I didn't hear it wrong, I definitely didn't hear it wrong!"
The old Taoist immediately reached out and grabbed Zhou Ze's arm, begging:
"Boss, I am a mean person. I just can't bear to see kids suffer."
Zhou Ze nodded.
"But think about it, boss. He died, and he said 'we'. Aren't there many other people who are being tortured like him?"
"I didn't hear it!"
"Boss, I'm doing this for your own good. If you run into one or two people like him tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, won't your conscience hurt?"
“I’m used to it.”
I have eaten my conscience.
It hurts nothing!
"You were the one who killed them!"
“So many people die in the Middle East every year, and I have to feel guilty too?”
"No, no, boss..."
The old Taoist knows what kind of personality his boss has.
But at this time, people pretend to be stupid.
There was nothing he could do.
"Old Zhou, if more people come later, we won't be able to turn on the lights at night. It's very troublesome. Do you want to light a candle and read the newspaper at night?"
Xu Qinglang also spoke at this time.
It's not that Lao Xu was also infected with the "Madonna disease" by the old Taoist priest,
It was because he saw the child kneeling on the ground crying and begging.
His soul was flickering.
This fear,
Has it gotten this deep
Even the soul is difficult to maintain
This is how you will be tortured even after death, until your soul is torn apart!
Zhou Ze smiled.
Licking his lips,
With a wave of the hand,
The gates of hell are dispelled,
Reach out,
Pointing at the old Taoist's face,
"Hey, boss, I know you have a kind heart."
“Yingying!”
"Yes, boss."
"bath."
"Okay, boss."
Zhou Ze went to take a shower.
Leaving the boy's ghost in the private room.
After taking a bath and putting on clean clothes from Yingying,
The Taoist priest and Xu Qinglang also happened to walk out of the private room.
"Wang Chao-Ma Han, what did you find out?"
"Sir, there must be something fishy going on here!"
Xu Qinglang also responded jokingly, but his expression did not show that he was joking.
The old Taoist walked up to Zhou Ze and said hesitantly:
"Boss, call Lao Zhang. He is in charge of this matter."
"Has this child been sent to a private juvenile detention center?" Zhou Ze asked.
"Um, boss, you know?"
"Don't you watch the news?" Zhou Ze said, making a gesture and placing his hand on the little monkey's chest.
“Squeak, squeak, squeak!!!”
The little monkey immediately danced and swayed as if he was having a seizure.
Perfectly coordinated with the performance of my boss.
"Look, even monkeys watch more news than you do."
“Squeak, squeak, squeak!”
The little monkey puffed out his chest with a proud look on his face.
"Forget it, there's no need to look for Lao Zhang. Lao Zhang is not convenient to handle this matter. Old Taoist, since you want to take care of it, just go and take care of it yourself. Have you found out the place?"
"I found out."
The old Taoist nodded.
"Then go ahead. The children are waiting for you to rescue them."
Zhou Ze yawned.
I’m preparing to call Yingying to go to bed.
"But, Boss, am I alone?"
The old Taoist pointed to his face.
he,
It's still very compelling.
Talisman paper may be of some use to ghosts.
But for the living,
It's useless.
As for bringing the monkey with you, it doesn't seem very convenient. You can't let the monkey turn into a gorilla in someone else's detention center and throw people to death, right
Moreover, the image of the monkey is sometimes convenient and sometimes inconvenient.
What Lao Dao means is,
It would be best if you could bring someone who looks like a human being.
And you have to be able to fight.
"I won't go with you."
Zhou Ze directly rejected the old Taoist's fantasy.
He doesn't want to get up tomorrow morning and go play the Powerpuff Girls with Lao Dao. Wouldn't it be nice to read the newspaper, drink some coffee and bask in the sun
I finally got out of hell, I can't not give myself a break.
"That… … "
"Who else has space in our store?"
Little Loli is at home,
It’s not convenient to find her out again.
The black girl has difficulty walking, and this woman doesn't know how to control her strength when she hits her.
Deadpool has to accompany me to grow vegetables,
This is the most important thing for the bookstore. Among all things, growing vegetables comes first.
The old Taoist looked at Xu Qinglang.
Xu Qinglang did not comment.
He doesn't care.
"He has to cook." Zhou Ze directly refused on behalf of Xu Qinglang.
Xu Qinglang gave the old Taoist a helpless look.
At this time,
The door of the library was pushed open.
The little boy came in.
Lonely back, lonely person,
Return under the moonlight.
"where have you been?"
Zhou Ze asked.
"Send her home."
"You're still playing with her?"
"I was outside and saw that the light in her bedroom was off. Then I came back."
Saying,
The little boy stretched out his hand.
He took out a pack of cigarettes and a lighter from his pocket.
Shake out one.
Bite in mouth.
"I walked back slowly by myself."
Zhou Ze stepped forward.
He reached out and snatched his cigarette and lighter, and hit him on the head.
"Little kid, why don't you learn to smoke?"
Saying,
“Bang!”
I ordered one myself.
Oh shit,
I actually bought the Supreme Emperor!
Blow out a smoke ring,
Looking at the little boy with the melancholy aura of a romantic saint,
Zhou Ze pointed at him and shouted to the Taoist priest:
"Let's choose him. He will go with you tomorrow. You give the ideas and he will follow you."
After that,
Zhou Ze instructed the little boy again:
"No killing this time."
The little boy was a little confused.
I don't know what I was assigned to do.
But it seems to be indifferent.
Life is already like this,
Why bother about anything else
Zhou Ze hit him with a chestnut again.
"Lawyer An probably won't be back tonight."
"Oh, then I'll go up first."
The little boy dragged his lonely body.
Go up the stairs step by step.
"Hey, Boss, now we have a lot of soldiers and generals. You don't have to do some things yourself. Just assign one of your subordinates.
It really feels like being a villain.”
Zhou Ze rolled his eyes at the old Taoist.
"Boss, in a few days I will order some wooden pieces for you, just like the ones used by the county magistrate in the movies.
Whatever happens next time,
You just take a stick and throw it forward.
Shout: Who, who, listen to my orders!
Think about it,
It’s quite impressive.”
Saying,
The Taoist priest also made a "throwing" motion.
Even dubbed it:
"biu!"
Zhou Ze looked at the old Taoist priest with a look of contempt.
The old Taoist smiled awkwardly.
"Um, I'm going to sleep first."
The Taoist priest led the monkey upstairs and back to the room.
Xu Qinglang cleaned up the dishes in the private room and went upstairs to rest.
Zhou Ze picked up the cocktail again and took a sip.
At this time,
Bai Yingying came over.
road:
"Boss, the new sheets are ready."
Zhou Ze nodded.
Then he grabbed a handful of "air" on the bar.
Throw it forward.
"biu!"
Yingying was watching from the side.
I don't know what it means,
I don’t dare to praise my boss as a good person out of habit.
Afraid of more embarrassment.
So I asked:
"Boss, what is this?"
Zhou Ze smiled, then said in a serious tone,
Deliberately joking in front of Yingying:
"Lord of Mount Tai,
Listen to my orders!!!"
