Midnight Bookstore

Chapter 68: Nonsense

Official Sovereign?

This was definitely not a title for himself. The first column on Zhou Ze’s credentials clearly stated his name, while the second column clearly stated his position as a temporary ghost servant.

Furthermore, this could not be a form of address to show respect. For example, in the Republic of China, when commoners saw a soldier, they would call him boss. If a temporary ghost servant could be called the prefectural lord, then this kind of title was too common and worthless in hell, right?

Therefore,

The problem should be the small notebook that he had just obtained.

This identification used to have an owner. Even though it had been ‘refreshed’ because of Zhou Ze, there should still be some information about the previous owner on it.

In short,

He had picked up the item of a very impressive person, and he had obtained it without much effort.

Of course, Zhou Ze did not have the time to celebrate with a glass of red wine. Instead, he felt a little disappointed. After all, he could not fight with this ugly Brother Monkey.

However, since his opponent had admitted defeat, Zhou Ze naturally wouldn’t be so cheap as to squat down and encourage his opponent to quickly regain his confidence in life, stand up, and hit me.

Hit me!

Since this was a beautiful misunderstanding, then let it continue.

Zhou Ze walked towards Monkey silently with one hand behind his back. In fact, he was subconsciously imitating the little loli’s cool pose to make the other party misunderstand for longer.

Walking to the man, the monkey continued to kowtow. Its skull had probably been gouged out before, and it was hollow inside. In reality, other than its body, the rest of its body was rotten and broken.

Zhou Ze reached out with one hand and pressed his fingernail on the spot between her eyebrows.

“Give me your soul blood.”

Zhou Ze said calmly.

“Yes, Your Highness.”

The monkey’s face was filled with fear, and it was completely convinced. A black earthworm appeared between its brows.

Zhou Ze grabbed the earthworm with his fingernails and started to pull it out. The earthworm grew longer and thicker.

Back then, Xu Qinglang had advised Zhou Ze to collect Bai Yingying’s soul blood. This was equivalent to controlling Bai Yingying’s life. Zhou Ze planned to use the same method to completely control the monkey while it was distracted.

However, the monkey’s soul blood was really thick. This showed how terrifying the monkey was.

Why did this monkey suddenly appear in the city?

At this moment, the Soul Blood suddenly stopped. Zhou Ze tried to pull it, but it did not budge.

Monkey, who had a look of awe on his face, was stunned for a moment. His eyes suddenly became clear!

The high and mighty Official Sovereign wanted to extract his soul blood. This was his honor, a decree that he could not resist, but why was it so difficult for the high and mighty Official Sovereign to extract his soul blood?

All of a sudden, the monkey’s mouth split open, and it let out a shrill cry as its claws swiped towards Zhou Ze.

Zhou Ze only felt that he had been hit by a large truck, but when he was sent flying, his nails exerted force and directly broke the opponent’s soul blood.

Splash…

Zhou Ze smashed through the glass behind him and fell into the glass shards. He raised his head, and his chest heaved up and down. Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and his entire body was in extreme pain.

“Damn it, you’re not the Fujun!

“You bastard, how dare you impersonate the Official Sovereign!”

The monkey started to go crazy. Although the soul blood had not been completely extracted by Zhou Ze, because it was cut off by Zhou Ze, even if it could not kill it immediately, it was enough to destroy its cultivation foundation.

Zhou Ze forced himself to stand up. His body was covered with cuts from glass shards, making him look very pathetic.

However, the monkey pounced at Zhou Ze like a crazed beast.

Plop!

The man and monkey slammed into each other, but this time, the monkey was much weaker than before. The man and monkey rolled on the ground.

“This is my destiny, and also my karma. With the Heavenly Dao’s permission, it is only right and proper to repay debts!

“You’re just a small fry, why are you obstructing me? Do you really think you’re the Ten Kings of Hell?”

Zhou Ze did not answer. Instead, he used his nails to pierce into the monkey’s body. The pus in the monkey’s body kept evaporating. Even if one wore a gas mask, the smell would probably be useless.

Finally, after a round of fighting, Monkey’s body lost its strength and fell to the side. Zhou Ze staggered to his feet. Most of his fingernails had been corroded.

He was a person who treasured his nails. Even in his previous life, when he was operating the scalpel, he would often trim his nails, not to mention the fact that his nails were more important to him in this life.

However, now was not the time to be calculative about this. Zhou Ze felt a lingering fear in his heart. If he had not lied to the other party with his identification documents, allowing him to obtain the opportunity to break the other party’s soul blood, he might have been the one lying on the ground after this round of confrontation.

This is not a ghost.

This was a demon.

Zhou Ze scolded himself many times in his heart.

Why did I follow him? I almost killed myself.

Humans were complicated creatures like this. They could do things without considering the consequences due to a moment of righteousness and the so-called impulse of conscience, but they would often regret it later.

He felt that he was an idiot.

Zhou Ze felt that the next time he encountered something like this, he should call the police and let them settle it. This way, he could leave with a clear conscience.

Madam Bai had stayed in Tong City for 200 years. Didn’t the little loli also turn a blind eye?

Shaking his head, Zhou Ze cast away the messy thoughts in his mind and looked at Monkey beside him.

The monkey opened its mouth, and its eyes turned turbid. Its body started to deflate like a balloon. It slowly shriveled, but it was not dead yet because it could still speak.

“I cultivated for three sixty years and obtained a fortuitous encounter. I sent good karma, became a demon, and peeped into the Great Dao… As an anomaly, it was really not easy to attain the Dao in the Yang Realm.”

Before a person died, they would like to reminisce about their past. It was not easy to talk about their life like that. This monkey’s mentality was not that different from a human’s.

“After so many years of cultivation, I still can’t control myself.” Zhou Ze spat out a mouthful of blood, and his teeth were filled with blood vessels.

“One sixty-year cycle. One sixty-year cycle.” Monkey’s voice began to weaken, but it still sounded powerful.

“I reformed my body once every sixty years. I started from the beginning and cultivated from the beginning. In the wilderness, I saved the passers-by and sent herbs to the villagers at the foot of the mountain to drive away the monsters and ghosts nearby.

“Although it doesn’t have a temple, it’s the duty of a mountain god to protect the people in the mountains for generations. Even now, that small town still has my stone sculpture, and there are stories of divine monkeys helping people there.”

Zhou Ze wiped his nails on his clothes. Looking at his badly damaged nails, he felt regretful. Of course, Zhou Ze only smiled coldly at Monkey’s words.

A divine monkey?

A mountain god protecting the villagers?

Help others?

Aren’t you being too helpful? Her husband is out working, and you’re helping him comfort his wife who’s staying in her room alone?

Furthermore, thinking back to when he had just gone upstairs, it was really hard to associate it with the divine monkey.

“Don’t act on your own, just pick something nice to say.” Zhou Ze raised his hand again, ready to end this monkey.

“It was them. During my fourth round of cultivation, they captured the body that I had just rotated. At that time, I was just a little monkey. Her husband was a woodcutter in the forest, and he fell into the canyon due to a fall. It was me who sent him fruits and dew. It was me who went to their camp to lead his friends to save him.

But when he was rescued, he tied me up with a rope used for logging and said to his colleague,

“One who survives a great disaster is bound to have good fortune in the future. Monkey Smell has a great brain. He gave it to his wife to taste. It has miraculous effects on infertility!”

The last part was written in the ancient language. This could show its anger, but it could also show that it was on the brink of death. Its consciousness was slowly becoming muddled, and it subconsciously used the method that it was most used to.

“Open my head, take my marrow, cut off my flesh, and share it with everyone. It’s a great supplement!”

As Monkey spoke, he, who had already shrunk to the size of an ordinary monkey, began to tremble. This was a rage that was gnashing its teeth in anger, an anger that seeped deep into its bones!

Cultivating for three generations, accumulating good deeds and protecting one side, but on the day before his cultivation was about to reach great success, he was destroyed. He didn’t die from his own enemies, but from the hands of the one he saved.

Anyone else would feel immense hatred.

“My physical body has been destroyed, my Dao has collapsed, but the hatred in my heart cannot be quelled!

F*ck!

“I have already died and my Dao dissipated. I am willing to enter Samsara and submit to the path of beasts. However, the resentment in my heart cannot be resolved. My soul cannot enter hell. I can only descend the mountain to seek revenge and understand karma. Only then can I be completely free.”

“Is this why you violated his wife?” Zhou Ze asked.

“Thou art a man, I am a beast, it is only right and proper for thee to serve others and eat beasts!

If an animal uses resentment to repay a person, the Heavenly Dao will not tolerate it, right? ”

Zhou Ze hesitated for a while before nodding. “Yes.”

He did not want to deny or deny it.

Of course, eating the monkey brain was illegal and a mistake. However, from Zhou Ze’s emotional standpoint, this monkey came down the mountain to take revenge and almost caused two lives. Zhou Ze still could not accept it.

For example, if you watched the people in the restaurant eating braised pork, you would feel that it was delicious.

But if you saw a group of pigs eating human flesh in the restaurant, as a human, what would you think?

It was a very selfish standpoint, a very twisted point of view, but that was the principle behind it. Since everyone’s standpoint was different, they naturally viewed things differently.

Moreover, Zhou Ze felt that no matter what, the child in the pregnant woman’s stomach was innocent.

“You must be in a lot of pain. Let me help you free yourself. Then, I’ll see if I can send your soul to hell.”

“Thank you…” Monkey said the last word.

Zhou Ze’s nails pierced Monkey’s body again.

Monkey’s body trembled.

His body had completely lost its life force.

However, Zhou Ze searched and waited for a long time, but he did not find Monkey’s soul.

This meant that the monkey’s soul had already been destroyed. Since its revenge was not completed, its soul could not enter hell.

Standing up, Zhou Ze realized that there was a thin layer of black smoke dissipating around him. It was like a barrier that prevented the outside world from sensing what was happening here. If not, with his fight with Monkey here, it would have attracted many people.

Zhou Ze carried Monkey’s body and slowly walked down the stairs.

At the same time, he reminded himself to remember the lesson that he had learned today. He was just a ghost worker, a ghost manager, a mountain spirit, and a ghost. This was beyond his scope of business.

Under the cover of the night, Zhou Ze dug a hole for Monkey with the shovel left by the gardener’s house in a park outside the hospital and buried his body inside.

Then, he cleaned his wound. After doing all that, Zhou Ze leaned against the tree and sat down.

He took out his phone that was cracked but still usable and sent a message to Doctor Lin.

“Has the pregnant woman and her child been saved?”

After five minutes, Doctor Lin replied:

“Yes, mother and son are safe.”

Zhou Ze lit a cigarette and took a puff. Then, he felt pain in his lungs and started coughing violently.

But soon, Doctor Lin sent another photo and a text.

“However, the child is deformed and has three legs.

Zhou Ze looked at the photo on his phone.

The thin baby lay there quietly, breathing evenly.

However, his lower body had three legs.

That extra leg.

Like a monkey’s… tail.
