"Your master?"
Zhou Ze still remembered Xu Qinglang's master. When he suddenly appeared, if Zhou Ze hadn't called out Ying Gou in the end, that person might have slaughtered the entire study that night.
Moreover, after being beaten up by Ying Gou..,
Before his "death", his master shouted like Team Rocket in Pokemon, "Let's go!"
I will be back!
Of course, Zhou Ze had never doubted that he would not return. Before he died, he had brought Zhou Ze to see many scenes and entered many scenes, as if he was explaining to Zhou Ze how he existed.
If it was really as he said, this person would really be very difficult to kill.
The reason why Xu Qinglang had worked so hard to do so many things before was because...
Zhou Ze felt that his leadership role as an example was one of the reasons,
Another reason was that Xu Qinglang was waiting for his master to appear again and was prepared to welcome him properly.
After all..,
That master was also the enemy who killed his father and mother.
"Yes, I sensed it."
Xu Qinglang replied.
"Not bad, looks like you've improved a lot. I remember the last time he appeared, you didn't feel anything at all. Oh right, you seemed to be washing your jio at that time?"
Xu Qinglang took a deep breath and corrected him,
"It's a bath,
No, I was hit by a corpse at that time... "
"Just bear with it this time. Don't take a bath for the time being. If the enemy comes and you're still naked, you'll lose in terms of momentum.
"The same words are completely different when you're wearing clothes and when you're naked. Do you understand?"
Xu Qinglang really wanted to ask Zhou Ze why the topic shifted to whether he took a bath or not,
But he didn't dwell on it too much. Instead, he looked at Zhou Ze worriedly and said,
"You guys go back to Tongcheng. I'll stay here for a while."
Zhou Ze reached out and patted Xu Qinglang's shoulder,
Xu Qinglang frowned and looked at Zhou Ze with some disdain. "It hurts."
How could it be comfortable to grab your shoulder with a hand full of white bones?
It was really uncomfortable.
"That's boring. Why don't we go through the plot of a tragedy again?
You say no, I say yes?
No, I say yes!
No, I say yes?
Is that interesting? "
"But..."
Xu Qinglang did not say this out loud, but Zhou Ze could understand what he wanted to say.
Yinggou was not here!
If it was the same as before,
The teacher came over.
If he really couldn't do it, he could just let Ying Gou come out and beat him up again.
But now,
Obviously not.
"This isn't a question of whether we can hide or not. I was the one who killed him back then. If he comes back, do you think he will look for you or me?"
Xu Qinglang nodded. That seemed to be the case.
"Don't think too much about it. We'll deal with it when the time comes. You should recuperate first and see if you can think of a way to lock onto your master's identity in advance.
Even if he comes back, he'll have to find a place to accumulate his strength again. It's impossible for him to reach the peak immediately. "
If Xu Qinglang could not sense his master's return, then the study room would naturally be in danger. A wolf could come to their door at any time. Now that Old Xu had improved to the point where he could sense it, everyone should be prepared to close the door and beat the dog.
"Then I won't be unreasonable."
"There's no need to be pretentious in the first place."
Zhou Ze pinched Xu Qinglang's shoulder again.
It was very weak, but it felt very good. Especially when your hand was still a piece of white bone, you would have the urge to touch something soft but still a little elastic and chewy.
"Take it away."
Xu Qinglang slapped Zhou Ze's hand away.
Zhou Ze let out a long sigh.
He said,
"I'll go back tomorrow. I've been out for so long."
..
The next day.
Lawyer an was the only one left in the sanatorium. His task was very complicated, but at the same time, it was also very simple. It was to spend money.
He spent money to renovate the villa and make it a real high-end sanatorium. At the same time, the security and the nearby defense work also needed to be replanned. Anyway, those "Patients" had a lot of money. Lawyer an just needed to "Create" it with all his might.
The rest of the people.
They all got on the plane.
Zheng Qiang, Yueya, and Liu Chuyu did not fly directly back to their own cities. Instead, they followed Zhou Ze and the others to Tongcheng.
The plane of Donghai Airlines landed at Tongcheng Xingdong Airport.
Because the airport was very small, not to mention taking the docking platform, even the ferry bus was rarely used. After getting off the plane, everyone walked directly to the exit.
It was snowing in Tongcheng today.
The temperature was below zero.
It was cold in Chengdu, but the climate there was still a little dry. Tongcheng was located at the mouth of the Yangtze River and was adjacent to the sea. The wet and cold feeling was really enough to make people want to die.
Zhou Ze and the two zombies in the team did not seem to be abnormal. The rest of the people started to shiver.
After exiting the terminal,
Yingying began to call for a taxi.
Zhou Ze turned around and looked at the new airport terminal in front of him that was almost completed but still not put into use.
He remembered that when he left Tongcheng for Yunnan.
He even met the ghosts of a few construction workers here.
Actually, he hadn't left for long, but because he had experienced too many things, it gave people the illusion that it had been a long time.
After the boss was done sighing.
Everyone got into the taxi.
Half an hour later.
The taxi stopped on South Street.
The front of the bookstore had been rearranged and redesigned. It gave people the feeling of a coffee house. From the outside, it looked very high-end.
After all, the old Daoist was a trendy person. Other than his taste in women that everyone did not dare to agree with, there was no problem with the rest of his aesthetic standards.
However.
What made people feel awkward was.
The old Daoist was a little too fashionable.
He actually installed a fingerprint lock on the door of the bookstore!
Then.
A very bleak scene appeared.
The boss went home.
With a group of little brothers and fangirls behind him.
They couldn't enter their own door.
They were messed up in the cold wind and snow.
There was no one in the shop. Yingying took out her phone and called the old Daoist. No one answered.
Yingying called the little monkey again.
No one answered.
Zhou Ze really wanted to smash the fingerprint lock.
But after thinking for a while,
He rejected the idea.
Because the lock should be quite expensive.
The renovation fees this time were all taken from the public account.
Yingying seemed to have noticed something and asked curiously, "Boss, there should be a lot of money at Qingcheng Mountain Sanatorium."
"That's the patient's money."
Zhou Ze patted Yingying's head. "They spent money to renovate the villa for their own good, for their own safety."
This was perhaps the reason why Lawyer An had told Zhou Ze about this matter as if he had contributed to it, and Zhou Ze had behaved very calmly at that time. Due to the professional habits of his previous life, he always felt uncomfortable taking money from a patient.
As for the three he had killed, they had only themselves to blame. That was a different matter altogether.
Living in this world, one had to pay attention to something.
Since he could not enter the bookstore, Zhou Ze could only walk to the pharmacy next door and wait for the old priest and monkey to return.
Fangfang was very happy to see Zhou Ze. She served tea and greeted Zhou Ze and the people he brought with him.
To Zhou Ze's surprise, he realized that the operating room inside was not empty.
He pushed the door open and walked in.
Zhou Ze saw three charred people lying inside.
"This is?"
Zhou Ze pointed at the person on the bed and asked Fangfang.
"Boss, it's the people you brought last time."
Seduce them?
That Son of Providence?
That's not right.
His previous injuries had been in the past for such a long time. Logically speaking, he should have recovered by now.
Moreover.
What was with the charred skin on his body?
"Uh, Boss, they were originally recovering well. A few days after you left, they woke up one after another and paid the fees very nicely.
They planned to leave.
The Taoist priest next door was prepared to send them off.
He even held a farewell dinner for them.
It happened to be Christmas Eve. The Taoist priest bought a lot of balloons to decorate the place. Then, for some reason, the balloons seemed to have been ignited when they were eating that day. These people were not very agile to begin with, but they could barely move when they woke up.
The Taoist priest was fine, but the three of them were severely burned.
"We followed your instructions before you left. We didn't send them to the big hospital. Instead, we continued to stay in our pharmacy. Our two doctors have already debrided their wounds."
"It's also because they're tough.
They've actually been holding on until now. "
"This is probably the toughest patient I've ever seen since I entered the profession."
Zhou Ze did not know whether to laugh or cry when he heard Fangfang's words.
Zhou Ze did not plan to follow up on the matter of the salary. He did not want to kill them, nor did he want to keep them. He had originally planned to let nature take its course. Since their injuries were almost healed, he would let them go.
Who would have thought that an accident would happen at the farewell party organized by the old Taoist on the day they were about to leave.
It seemed that they would have to continue lying down for a while.
"Boss, the call is through."
Yingying handed the phone to Zhou Ze.
"Hey, old Taoist, where are you? Come back and open the door!"
"Squeak squeak squeak!!!!!"
Monkey cries came from the other end of the phone.
The Flower Fox Ferret, who had been sleeping on Zhou Ze's shoulder, suddenly woke up and said to the phone:
"Squeak squeak squeak!!!!!"
"Squeak squeak squeak!!!!!"
The two animals cried more and more happily.
Zhou Ze reached out and patted the Flower Fox Ferret's butt.
The Flower Fox Ferret's body trembled. It immediately lowered its head and stopped crying.
"Let's eat monkey brains tonight."
The monkey immediately stopped crying.
"Hello, Boss, it's me. What's wrong?"
"Come back and open the door."
"Oh, ah, ya!
Boss, you're back!
I'll be back soon, I'll be back soon. I'm enjoying the snow scenery with the monkey and reciting poems. "
"Oh my god, why did you bring the monkey here, ah ah ah ah ah!!!!!"
A woman's scream came from the other end of the phone. Moreover, this voice was obviously old, rough and bold.
"Boss, there's a big girl who fell to the ground."
"Come back."
"Okay, right away..."
"Where's the money? You haven't paid yet. You've already used five sets. Pay!"
The sound of touching the pocket came from the other end. It should be the old Taoist paying.
"Boss, this big girl is scamming me. She's trying to extort money from me."
