"Tell me, what's going on?"
Zhou Ze, who had finished the surgery for the Little Loli and Geng Chen, took a shower. He wiped his hair with a towel as he walked out.
Lawyer an and the little boy sat on the sofa obediently, like primary school students who had made a mistake and were waiting to be criticized by their teacher.
Oh..,
This posture..,
Was a little strange.
Zhou Ze sat down on his personal sofa. Yingying walked over and took the towel.
At the same time, she handed over the coffee.
Lawyer an's Super Domineering Cup became even stronger because in the few days that lawyer an had been gone, he had accumulated too many goods.
Although the older the expired coffee, the more fragrant it became..,
It couldn't help but run out of space in the warehouse.
During this process, lawyer an began to quickly enter the state of mind
First, his shoulders were trembling in a slow rhythm. Then, his eyes turned red, his lips slightly parted, and his nose turned sour. Tears began to swirl in his eyes.
"You … old … I thought, I thought, I thought, I would never see you again."
"Speak human language."
Zhou Ze did not cooperate with lawyer an to play emotional here. He still had the matter of the Xuanyuan Sword on his side.
Lawyer an nodded and wiped his tears. He picked up the Super Domineering Cup on the coffee table and began to "Gulp Gulp Gulp..."
Zhou Ze remembered that lawyer an had previously made an appointment for the stone surgery, but he was delayed because he went to Xuzhou. He could not help but ask,
"When are you going to do your stone surgery?"
"Ah, I went out for a few days. I don't know why, but it doesn't hurt anymore. I think it's almost healed. Thank you for your concern, boss."
After saying that..,
Lawyer an began to "Gulp Gulp Gulp" again...
Zhou ze nodded.
After putting down the Super Domineering Cup, lawyer an took a deep breath,
He began to narrate formally:
"It's like this, boss. At first, we received a call for help from Geng Chen, but when we rushed to Xuzhou, we directly lost all clues about Geng Chen's exact location.
"However, the land in Xuzhou is very good at dealing with things. With a few good words and some filial piety, they are willing to give us clues.
"So, boss, you are wise. You let us integrate these ghosts and snakes in Tongcheng in advance. Otherwise, Tongcheng's territory would be like other places.
"Actually, Xuzhou can be considered an ancient city."
The ancient city that Lawyer An was talking about did not mean that there were many well-preserved historical sites in Xuzhou. After all, for people in other places, the welfare of relying on the terracotta warriors to make a living in Xi'an was something that could only be encountered by chance.
But in reality, not only Xuzhou, but also the nearby cities like Huai'an and Yangzhou had been famous cities since ancient times, equivalent to the ancient Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou.
However, in recent times, due to various reasons, it had declined. It was still a region with good economic development in the country, but in Jiangsu Province, it was ranked in the bottom half.
However, it wouldn't be surprising at all if one were to find ancient tombs or ruins buried in the ground in these few places.
"That land lord said that a few days ago, a cloud of strange black gas appeared about seventy to eighty miles north of Xuzhou City.
We went there to investigate. After searching for half a day, we found Geng Chen's traces. Our efforts didn't fail us.
Whenever he had nothing to do, he would use the materials around him to make puppets. I had spent some time with him, so I found the place where he had stayed. I looked around and found a robber's hole.
The robber's hole wasn't big, and the tomb inside wasn't big either, but it was very deep.
We didn't dare to go down in a hurry. We wanted to see more of the situation, so we waited there for the whole night. When the sun was high in the sky the next day, we carefully went down to take a look.
The tomb was really not big. There was only one main tomb and two ear chambers. In today's world, it was only the size of a small apartment.
Moreover, the funerary items inside were also very strange. I didn't see any gold, silver, or jewelry. I didn't even see a ceramic jar.
The two ear chambers, which were usually used to store funerary items, were actually filled with coffins. At first, looking at the color, I thought it was a bronze coffin, but after touching it, it felt a little soft.
It should be a kind of material similar to latex. That's it. Boss, look... "
Lawyer An took out a small cloth bag and opened it, revealing a green material.
Zhou Ze reached out and pinched it,
It wasn't very hard. With a little force, it could be deformed.
This feeling..,
Was a little like an expired Happy Man.
"At first, we didn't dare to touch these coffins for fear of causing trouble. If it was any other time, I would definitely carry these coffins back for you, boss, without saying a word.
"Although there aren't any other funerary items, just selling the ancient corpses inside will be enough for our bookstore to continue to lose money for hundreds of years."
In fact, corpses were also considered a type of cultural relic, and their value was sometimes higher than the so-called funerary relics, such as the remains of Egyptian pharaohs
In the border areas of the country, there were still inspirational stories of people who had made a fortune by selling ancient Loulan corpses.
Lawyer An knew his boss's personality. If it wasn't for the warning of Gengchen's danger, he would really be willing to pack up those coffins and corpses and bring them back. The boss would definitely be happy.
"However, there are no coffins in the main tomb. There is only a big pool. It feels like a bathtub. We found Gengchen there."
"And then?"
Zhou Ze knew that something must have happened. Otherwise, the little loli wouldn't have ended up like this.
"It's because of me," the little boy said.
The little boy said, "At first, we dragged Gengchen out, but I don't know why, but I suddenly became lost in the pool. It felt like there was something in the pool calling out to me, and I subconsciously walked in."
Zhou Ze looked at the little boy meaningfully,
The little boy was a zombie,
To a certain extent..,
Something that could have an effect on him was very likely to have the same effect on him.
"We can't just pick one up and throw one back, right?"
Lawyer An said at this moment, "We just wanted to wake him up, but who knew that he would raise his heart into the pool like he had eaten a steelyard weight.
I can't beat this guy, so I relied on Lin Ke to wake him up with the power of love.
"Boss, I know you don't like to listen to melodramatic love stories, so I won't go into detail here. Anyway, it's no different from those romance dramas."
"Okay."
Zhou Ze nodded. He could imagine this.
The power of love had reformed the male protagonist who had become a demon. It was a rotten routine.
"And then, you guys came back?"
Zhou Ze narrowed his eyes.
"Yes, I'm back."
"What happened to Lin Ke?"
"She... she went into the pool to pull him. She should have been contaminated by the pool. Gengchen was soaking in the pool before and was also contaminated."
"In other words, only the two of you are fine?"
Zhou Ze pointed at Lawyer An and the little boy.
The little boy nodded. "I went into the pool. I'm fine. Lin Ke went down to pull me. She was contaminated."
"What about you?"
Zhou Ze looked at Lawyer An.
Lawyer An decisively ruled out the option, making things clearer.
"I... I didn't go into the pool."
Therefore, only zombies would go into the pool, and there would be no risk of contamination. If anyone else went into the pool, they would be contaminated.
"After that, you guys came back?"
"Yes, we came back. We were worried that something might have happened to the two of them, so we drove back quickly."
Lawyer An knew that things that were ineffective against zombies could infect other people. Probably only his boss could solve it, so he did not dare to delay and directly brought the two injured people back.
"What about that place?"
"I sealed the thief's hole and set up a simple array formation. It can't be compared to Old Xu's, but at least it can be a little safer."
"Gengchen, why did he go there?"
"This guy still hasn't woken up. When we went there, he was already rising and falling in the pool. We don't know why he went there and how he found that place."
"They just finished the surgery. It's not a big problem," Zhou Ze said.
"Yes, Boss is amazing. Two famous doctors, Xing Lin..."
"Lin Ke, let her rest well," Zhou Ze said.
"Thank you, Boss," the little boy immediately said.
"I understand, Boss."
Lawyer An stood up and walked out of the bookstore.
Zhou Ze leaned back slightly,
He waved for Yingying to come over.
"Boss, what's wrong?"
"Pack your things. We might have to go to Xuzhou in the afternoon."
"Okay, Boss."
"Boss, are you in such a hurry?"
The little boy asked in surprise.
Zhou Ze did not answer,
Instead, he picked up the piece of green material that Lawyer An had left on the coffee table,
He placed it in front of his nose and sniffed it gently,
Actually..,
It really didn't smell much,
But in the dark..,
It gave Zhou Ze a very familiar feeling.
It was a day waiting for the Xuanyuan Sword to come down, and it was also a day lying down. In any case, it was a day at a time. It wasn't too much to struggle a little and turn over, right?
"Old Daoist."
"Hey, what's the matter, Boss?"
The old Daoist, who had been sitting behind the bar counter and combing the little monkey, raised his head and looked over.
"You should pack your things too. Come out with me later."
"Okay, Boss."
The old Daoist was quite excited,
One had to know..,
It had been a long time since the boss brought him out to do any missions.
Actually..,
The reason why everyone had a tacit understanding not to bring the old Daoist out in the past..,
Firstly, it was because they valued the old Daoist's ability to guard the house,
There was an old Daoist in the bookstore. Whoever came to visit, he would first entertain them on a one-day tour of the city. After entertaining them, he would probably lie in the pharmacy to generate income.
Secondly, it was because there had been too many bloody lessons in the past. If he brought the old Daoist out, he could still cause trouble for you.
Although life needed to be exciting, if it was too exciting, the heart wouldn't be able to take it.
However, this time, Zhou Ze did it on purpose. The Xuanyuan Sword kept swaying above his head. He really needed to find an opportunity to communicate with the last generation.
He didn't have the direct contact information of the last generation,
He could only bring the old Daoist out for a stroll,
What if Wan You had an effect?
At this moment..,
Lawyer An pushed open the door and stood at the entrance of the bookstore. He said to Zhou Ze,
"Boss, gengchen has woken up. He urgently wants to express his gratitude to you for saving his life."
