Late Night Bookstore - Chapter36

On the second floor.

Beside the freezer.

Zhou Ze stood there for around half an hour.

Madam Bai was still lying in the freezer. She looked exactly the same as when Zhou Ze went out in the morning. However, there was no way the surveillance camera was wrong.

Especially when...

The glass of water...

It was a little sweet when he first drank it.

It was not a psychological effect, as he did not watch the video before drinking the water.

As a matter of fact, Zhou Ze did not feel disgusted when he drank the woman's saliva. After all, he had just witnessed Xu Qinglang eating a lot of 'delicacies' the night before.

Compared to Xu Qinglang, his experience was only a drop in the bucket.

Of course, he did not think it was' sexy 'either.

No matter how beautiful the woman was, she was still a corpse that had been lying underground for two hundred years.

Zhou Ze was struggling to accept the fact that she had not brushed her teeth for two hundred years, even though he was a clean freak.

She could move. She had gone downstairs to drink some water and came back up again.

Did Madam Bai not tell him the truth?

Or, there was another possibility. Because of his nails last night, the corpse had undergone some changes.

Madam Bai's soul had already gone to Hell. It was unlikely that she would purposely leave a bomb in the human world.

The little girl once said that the ghosts in the world of the living had to behave themselves. Those who tried to stir up trouble were simply tired of living and living a comfortable life.

However, Zhou Ze had a completely different feeling when a corpse was placed on the second floor and a moving corpse was placed on the second floor. No one would want to have a dangerous factor next to their bed.

"Hey, lady, why don't you wake up and let's have a chat?"

Zhou Ze said while leaning against the edge of the freezer.

He was hoping that the corpse would open her eyes and either fight him or have a chat with him. At least they could talk to each other, or at least poke open the window and stop trying to be mysterious.

However, the corpse remained unmoved. She was still lying on the ground.

Zhou Ze took a deep breath and reached his hand into the corpse. He began to roam around the corpse's body. He even violated some of the more sensitive parts.

He could only hope that the corpse would not be able to endure the 'harassment' and open her eyes in anger.

Unfortunately...

The corpse was still lying on the ground coldly.

Zhou Ze was unmoved.

Zhou Ze guessed that even if he took off his pants and climbed on top of her, the corpse would still remain the same.

Zhou Ze withdrew his hand and pursed his lips. He was not sure what to do.

You can't wake a man who's pretending to be asleep.

The next moment, Zhou Ze's fingernails began to grow longer. Following it, Zhou Ze stabbed the woman's arm with his index finger and slowly exerted force.

"Pfft …"

The nails were like sharp blades, stabbing into the woman's arm. The woman did not bleed. Instead, a cloud of black gas began to spread out. For a moment, the whole room on the second floor became eerie.

"Zhou Ze, what are you doing!?"

Xu Qinglang's voice came from downstairs.

Following that, Xu Qinglang rushed up to the second floor without a care. Zhou Ze withdrew his hand. His nails seemed to be covered in a layer of frost. They were a little stiff and a little painful.

"You're crazy!"

Xu Qinglang glanced at the narrow wound on the dead woman's arm and yelled, "Do you know that the Drought Demon can travel a thousand miles when he's out?

This female corpse is definitely not comparable to the Drought Demon, but once the aura stored in her body leaks out, it will be enough to cause a plague in Tong City! "

Zhou Ze was not in a rush to deal with the enraged Xu Qinglang. He continued to stare at the woman's arm. The wound he had inflicted on her arm was slowly healing.

This female corpse..,

Apart from the fact that her body was still cold and she was not breathing, everything else was really no different from a living person. In fact, her body was even more active than a living person's!

"Hey, you and I dug this thing out together. If this thing causes any trouble, I'll be punished as well. My lifespan will be shortened, and I'll even leave a disaster for my descendants!

It's the same for you. If you make a big deal out of this, even if you're a ghost now, you won't be able to bear the consequences. "

The black gas that had just leaked out of the female corpse's body slowly evaporated. Because of the small amount, and because only Zhou Ze and Xu Qinglang were there, their resistance was relatively strong, so it would not cause any harm.

However, what had just leaked out was just the tip of the iceberg of the thing in the female corpse's body.

Zhou Ze sighed, "Xu Qinglang."

"What?"

"Leave your wife with you. Didn't your parents just leave? Let her be your companion. After all, you're married to someone else."

"What? What do you mean?" Xu Qinglang was confused.

"She can move this thing by herself," Zhou Ze said. "She went downstairs by herself today and even drank some water."

Xu Qinglang's face also revealed a look of shock. The corner of his mouth twitched as he took two steps back.

Last night, he had said that once an accident happened to the corpse, it would turn into a zombie. Moreover, it was not a stupid weak chicken that only knew how to "Wah Wah Wah Wah" in European and American movies. Instead, it was a real zombie that ate raw meat and drank blood, and might even have some supernatural powers.

"Thank you, I'm getting used to being alone."

What a joke, this hot potato, no, this hot atomic bomb, how could Xu Qinglang take it?

"Don't you have some talismans? Stick some on her?" Zhou Ze asked.

"The talismans of my two knives will only have the opposite effect and stimulate her," Xu Qinglang said with a bitter smile.

"Then what should we do?" Zhou Ze felt a headache. "Ship it to the sea and throw it away?

Even if she turns into a zombie, we can just let her cause trouble for the Sea Dragon King. "

"She can't leave Tongcheng. She was a Tongcheng person when she was alive, and she will be a Tongcheng ghost after she dies. Once her body leaves Tongcheng, she will also have problems.

Otherwise, why didn't Madam Bai get rid of her before she went to the Underworld? "

"Pa!"

Zhou Ze directly closed the lid of the freezer. Obviously, there was no solution to this problem.

He couldn't burn it,

He couldn't transport it,

He was afraid of an accident if he threw it somewhere else,

He could only put it in his room and let him take the risk to look after it?

Zhou Ze now seemed to understand why the little loli went to hell with a "Biu" sound. It was not easy to be an official ape in the Underworld.

Even if he entered the system, working at the grassroots level would always be the most difficult.

For example, he was now.

"Cheer up. I'll help you make more sour plum juice tonight," Xu Qinglang comforted.

"And then?"

"And then I'll move. Didn't I say that I'm going to open a shop in the county below? I plan to make a plan in advance." Xu Qinglang had the attitude of a dead friend.

After locking the freezer, Zhou Ze and Xu Qinglang walked downstairs together.

Xu Qinglang reminded Zhou Ze not to mess around before returning to the noodle shop. He was probably busy with his own business, but he was shocked when he sensed the evil aura leaking out. He quickly ran over.

Zhou Ze sat behind the counter,

He picked up a glass of water and shook it in front of him.

His phone rang. He took it out and saw it was an unfamiliar number.

"Hello, is this Mr. Xu Le?

We're from the Chongchuan Traffic Police. "

"Yes, it's me. What's wrong?"

"Is Xu Dachuan your relative? He just got into a car accident and is being sent to the People's Hospital."

"Alright, I'll be right there."

Zhou Ze closed his eyes and let out a dissatisfied snort. He was already annoyed enough, and now there was another problem. Xu Dachuan should be the uncle that he had treated to lunch.

However, he had to go. Although the man had come to the city to visit Xu Le and not Zhou Ze, Zhou Ze had already given the local goods to Xu Qinglang to make ingredients.

Zhou Ze looked at his fingernails,

If Xu Dachuan's life was really in danger,

Should he save him or not?

Zhou Ze could not help but shiver when he recalled the pain he suffered after saving the little girl. Forget it, let's hope he's fine.

He left the shop and hailed a cab. Zhou Ze sent Xu Qinglang a WeChat message, telling him that he would be going out for a while.

It was already eight at night when he arrived at the People's Hospital. Zhou Ze asked at the front desk and was relieved when he learned that Xu Dachuan's life was not in danger and had been transferred to a ward.

Zhou Ze was stunned when he pushed the door open. He saw Doctor Lin standing beside Xu Dachuan's bed, talking to him.

One of Xu Dachuan's legs was propped up. It was most likely broken. There were a few bruises on his face, but he was still in high spirits. He was in high spirits when he was chatting with his niece-in-law.

Zhou Ze exchanged glances with Doctor Lin as he walked over.

"Thank you, thank you," Zhou Ze said.

"It's my pleasure," Doctor Lin rose to his feet and explained, "I'm not home during the day, I'm sorry."

"It's fine," Zhou Ze waved his hand.

Doctor Lin walked out of the ward. Zhou Ze chatted with his uncle for a while longer. The long-distance bus was involved in a car accident before it even left the city. Xu Dachuan was a little unlucky. He fell and fractured his left leg. The rest of the passengers only suffered minor injuries.

Xu Dachuan did not seem too concerned about his injury. He kept saying, "My niece-in-law is a good person."

Zhou Ze smiled and told Xu Dachuan to get some rest. He then left the ward.

Doctor Lin was standing beside the front desk. A female nurse was sitting there. She seemed to be feeling a little uncomfortable.

Zhou Ze was about to leave, but he had to inform Doctor Lin first. It had been a long time since they last contacted each other, but he still had to keep up appearances.

However, as soon as he got closer, Zhou Ze heard a baby crying. It was very weak, like a kitten.

Zhou Ze did not think much of it at first, but when he got closer to Doctor Lin, he realized the baby was crying even louder.

Could it be that Doctor Lin was being targeted by a ghost?

Zhou Ze was still looking around. He purposely stood behind Doctor Lin to take a closer look.

"I'm fine, Sister Lin, it's an old problem with my stomach. I'll be fine after I take some medicine," the nurse thanked Doctor Lin for her concern.

"Take care of yourself," Doctor Lin comforted her.

Doctor Lin finally noticed Zhou Ze, who was standing behind her, acting a little suspicious.

"You..."

"Wait," Zhou Ze raised his hand and listened carefully. He glanced at the nurse's stomach.

The voice did not come from Doctor Lin, but from the nurse's body.

Zhou Ze immediately realized what was going on, since he was a doctor in the past.

"You're pregnant," Zhou Ze said to the nurse.

Zhou Ze said to the nurse. At this time, Zhou Ze could not help but remind her to pay attention to her face.

"What?" the nurse was dumbfounded.

"What are you talking about? Xiao Chen isn't married yet, nor does she have a boyfriend," Doctor Lin glared at her 'husband'.

"I don't know who you're pregnant with, but you should go for a check-up now. By the way, let me remind you, you might have a miscarriage," Zhou Ze said confidently.

A fetus was not stable. The cry represented the sadness of an unborn child. It was the reason why Zhou Ze did not care about the doctor's reputation.

A human's life was at stake!

Nurse Little Chen stood up abruptly when she heard that. She had an anxious look on her face. Obviously, she did not know that she was pregnant before, but she knew that she had a "high-risk" behavior, so the possibility of pregnancy was very high.

Doctor Lin noticed it too. He left in a hurry with Xiao Chen.

Zhou Ze stretched his back. It was such a pity that Xu Le had majored in civil engineering. If Xu Le had majored in medicine, he would soon become the most famous doctor in Tongcheng, or even the entire Su Province.

Zhou Ze went downstairs and bought a box of milk and some daily necessities for Xu Dachuan. He brought them to Xu Dachuan's room and left. He was seriously planning to leave this time. After all, the man at home was making him feel uneasy.

Doctor Lin happened to come out of the elevator. Her expression was grim.

"What's wrong?"

"How did you know Xiao Chen was pregnant?" Doctor Lin asked.

"I've learned some Chinese medicine," Zhou Ze made up a story, "How's the situation over there?"

"Xiao Chen is planning to protect the child, but it's hard to say if she can do it. She didn't pay attention to it at all."

Doctor Lin said to Zhou Ze, "Are you going back? I'll give you a ride after I get changed."

Just like that, Zhou Ze left the hospital in Doctor Lin's Cayenne.

The two did not talk much along the way. Their relationship as husband and wife had fallen to a freezing point after what happened last time.

When they arrived at the bookstore, Zhou Ze felt like he should find a topic to talk about. Otherwise, it would be too boring. He said, "You've posted a lot of photos of traditional Chinese clothes on your WeChat moments. Do you like them?"

"Mm," Doctor Lin nodded.

"I quite like them too," Zhou Ze touched his nose, "Do you have any traditional Chinese clothes? Why don't you wear them for me someday?"

Doctor Lin did not respond. She was too lazy to continue the topic.

The car stopped at the entrance of the bookstore. Zhou Ze got out of the car. To his surprise, Doctor Lin got out of the car too. It seemed like she was planning to enter the bookstore with him.

Hehe, this woman is pretty tough. Isn't she afraid that I'll do something to her again?

"I'll go get a few magazines to read at work," Doctor Lin said.

"Mm."

Zhou Ze nodded. He knew that this was Doctor Lin's way of expressing his intention to reconcile. This woman was really not easy.

In Lu Xun's style, this woman had once again lowered her head to feudal etiquette, which was also to this nominal "husband".

In ancient times, Doctor Lin was a typical pitiful woman who had been tortured by feudal etiquette.

When he pushed open the door of the bookstore, Zhou Ze was surprised to see Xu Qinglang sitting on a plastic stool reading a book. However, the book in his hand was clearly upside down. What the hell was he reading?

Xu Qinglang forced a smile at Zhou Ze with difficulty, but it was uglier than crying.

Doctor Lin took a few more glances at the man who was more good-looking than most women before walking straight to the bookshelf to choose a magazine.

Zhou Ze handed Xu Qinglang a cigarette and whispered, "What's wrong with you? Why are you so distracted?"

At this moment..,

The sound of footsteps came from the staircase, and a woman in a white ancient dress slowly walked down from above. Her figure was graceful, and she carried a natural gentleness.

When she saw Zhou Ze..,

She bowed slightly,

She said respectfully,

"You're back."

The magazine in Doctor Lin's hand..,

Landed on the ground,

At the same time, he said coldly,
