Chapter 195 - Those Who Stop Me, Salted Fish, Will Die!

Chapter 195: Those Who Stop Me, Salted Fish, Will Die!

Zhou Ze was not sure if there was a cycle of reincarnation in this world, and whether the so-called karma really existed. But one thing was certain, those who did evil and took the ill-gotten gains would eventually receive the punishment they deserved:

At least..,

they would die of old age.

After opening the gates of Hell, he reached out and grabbed the man in the Red Shirt. He threw him inside and completed the task.

Then, Zhou Ze entered the salted-fish state again. He lay on the sofa, holding the newspaper and drinking coffee. After experiencing the ups and downs of the Mirror World, Zhou Ze felt that this state was the most enjoyable.

He maintained this position until the evening. Xu Qinglang walked over and whispered to Zhou ze, “There’s no money in the shop account.”

The rent of the bookstore was actually not expensive. After all, it was rented from the Xu family. At that time, when they were negotiating the price, the Xu family gave the green light.

However, the amount of food, water, and electricity for everyone was not a small amount. The coffee that boss Zhou was drinking now was imported. The price was not cheap to begin with. The drinks that Xu Qinglang made for the customers were all cheap from small bars, however, the drinks that he drank were not cheap at all.

In addition, the business of the living people in the bookstore was indeed not very good. Just by looking at how Zhou Ze had not entered the bookstore again until now, it was clear how bad the business of the bookstore was.

“Go get the paper money and burn it at the entrance. Burn more.”

“Okay.”

Xu Qinglang went to get the paper money. When the old priest, who had been playing with monkey, saw this scene, he immediately came over.

To the old priest, there was no game in this world that was more fun than burning paper money. It was more enjoyable than playing the slot machine. Squatting at the entrance of the bookstore to burn it, someone would come over to throw the money later. It was simply wonderful.

“Take more,”the old Taoist muttered at the side.

“That’s enough,”Xu Qinglang took a stack of money and said.

“The boss said to burn more money. Why are you saving money for him?”

“It’s almost done. Otherwise, it would be too wasteful.”

“Do you need to be his family?”The old Taoist shook his head. “If you want to be his family, it’s Yingying.”

Xu Qinglang thought for a moment, and it seemed to make sense. He simply took out another stack of money and handed it to the old Taoist. Then, Xu Qinglang and the old Taoist each took a stack of money and lit it in front of the bookstore in the dark.

After burning it, the old Daoist squatted down and smoked, waiting for the RMB to come.

In fact, the old Daoist had saved a lot of paper money on his side. Sometimes, when he met some poor ghosts, Zhou Ze didn’t like those ghost notes, so he gave them to the old Daoist.

The old Daoist couldn’t help but hide them. It was a lot of money.

Moreover, the old Daoist had a dream. When he had enough ghost notes, he would glue them together with tape and make them into clothes, just like the fish-skin clothes of the Hezhe tribe.

F * ck, when that time came, he would be really lucky. Just thinking about it made him excited.

If he went to Macau with that set of clothes, wouldn’t he be successful in everything?

An electric car drove over from the front. The old priest and he looked over there. Both of them felt that it should be him.

The person who drove the electric car was wearing a blue take-out coat and a helmet. It was obvious that he was a delivery boy. The delivery boy didn’t think much of it at first, but when he passed by this bookstore.., he suddenly saw a man and a woman squatting at the entrance of the bookstore, staring at him. His heart skipped a beat. Coincidentally, there was a fire hydrant in front of him, and he actually drove the car straight into it.

“Clang!”

A small box fell down, and it was filled with fast food boxes.

The delivery boy immediately stood up, looking a little guilty. He immediately picked up his electric car, as if he didn’t notice what fell down, and drove straight into the road.

“Beep Beep…”

The sound of a car horn could be heard,

under the watchful eyes of the old priest and Xu Qinglang,

the delivery boy was like an iron-head doll as he directly crashed into the bus in front of him and caught up with it head-on.

“Bang!”

The delivery boy was knocked flying,

the electric scooter also fell apart,

his helmet coincidentally rolled in front of the old priest and Xu Qinglang and even rolled a few times.

It seemed like he had hit the jackpot.

Xu Qinglang and the old priest looked at each other. They could see the helplessness in each other’s eyes.

“I told you to cook less,”Xu Qinglang complained.

“F * ck, you’re the one who took it.”

The old priest retorted angrily. Then, he got up and picked up the food that the delivery boy had just thrown down. After holding it in his hand, the old priest immediately felt that something was wrong. He immediately pulled Xu Qinglang into the bookstore.

“What happened outside? was there a car accident?”Zhou Ze was also disturbed by the noise outside.

The old Taoist took the few lunch boxes over and took a deep breath. In front of Zhou Ze, he opened the first lunch box. Surprisingly, it was full of money, and it was even American dollars!

“Oh, my goodness.”

The old Taoist smacked his lips and immediately opened two more boxes. Surprisingly, it was still American dollars.

“I’m Rich, I’m Rich.”The old priest could not control his hands and immediately opened the last box. Then, he shouted and immediately retreated. In the last box, there was actually a bag of small blue pills.

It’s over, it’s over, it’s over, it’s over, the pills!

Xu Qinglang stood at the side. When he saw the US dollars, he was not very excited. These US dollars were less than 100,000, which was equivalent to a few hundred thousand RMB. It was not even enough for his apartment.

However, when Xu Qinglang saw the blue pill, his face revealed a look of surprise.

“Who left it behind?”Zhou ze asked.

“A delivery boy,”his older brother replied.

“Where is he?”

“Here, he was the one who got into the car accident outside. His entire body was knocked flying.”The old priest pointed outside.

Zhou Ze stood up and walked to the door to take a look. Many onlookers had gathered at the scene of the car accident. However, through the cracks, he could see the delivery boy lying on the ground, bleeding profusely. He was probably not going to make it.

“Take some more paper money and burn it at the door. Don’t cause any trouble,”Zhou Ze instructed the old man.

“Okay.”The old man wiped the sweat from his forehead and immediately took out a few ghost notes from the drawer and burned them at the door. This time, it was not to seek money, but to avoid trouble.

Zhou ze pointed at the US dollars on the table and signaled Xu Qinglang to put them away as his household expenses for the time being. Then, he picked up the bag containing the blue pills and walked to the bathroom.

“Hualala…”

A big bag of small blue pills was poured into the toilet by Zhou Ze and then flushed down the toilet. The small pills also went into the sewer.

In fact, this bag of pills might be more valuable, but boss Zhou was unmoved. Just like the father and son of the old Taoist who ate steamed buns last time, this kind of thing was something that the living would not want to touch even if they were ghosts.

After doing all this, Zhou ze clapped his hands and walked out.

The police and the ambulance quickly arrived. The delivery boy’s car accident was quite serious and he died immediately. At first, there were not many police officers who came and treated it as a normal car accident, but later, there were many more police officers, the atmosphere suddenly changed.

Zhou ze guessed that the police must have found out the real identity of the delivery boy and began a large-scale investigation. There were also police officers who came to the bookstore to make witness statements, and the old man was responsible for receiving them.

After they were done, the old man smiled and said, “He really is a drug dealer. We can even do justice for the heavens by burning a Hell’s note at our own door.”

“Something he left behind?”Xu Qinglang asked.

“We were lucky, or the Hell’s note that we burned later had an effect. The two cameras here had a problem with the wiring today and happened to be on strike, so we can use the US dollars ourselves.”

Zhou ze nodded when he heard that. The money from burning the money in the future was basically unrighteous money, so there was no psychological burden for him to use it.

“Hey, Deadpool, come and clean up.”

The priest, who was wearing the Deadpool clothes, stood up and took the mop from the old priest and began to clean up.

The old priest was not idle either. He started to set the tables and chairs and clean the coffee table.

Because the boss was a germaphobe, this kind of cleaning had to be done once a day.

Zhou Ze went upstairs. Bai Yingying was already in the bedroom. She was sitting in a chair and watching a movie with her headphones on.

In fact, Bai Yingying’s appearance had basically recovered recently, but that was only on the surface. The internal deficit could only wait for Zhou Ze’s body to recover before helping her recover.

However, she just sat there with her white hair down and her feet on the desk. Instead, she looked more peaceful and peaceful than before.

Especially that pair of small feet that kept flexing and stretching gently, as if they could seduce a soul.

The beautiful curves were just right.

Zhou Ze could not help but stand at the door and watch for a while. People always had an urge to admire beautiful things.

“Boss, boss, it’s not good, it’s not good!”

The old Taoist ran up with something in his hand.

“Boss?”

Bai Yingying took off her earphones and walked over.

“What’s going on?”Zhou ze asked.

“Boss, I found this under the chair. It’s a card in a few ghost notes.”

Generally speaking, after sending a ghost to hell, the “Road-buying money”left by the ghost would usually be left on the ground or stuck under the chair the ghost was sitting on. The old Taoist would pay attention to these places when cleaning.

However, this was the first time a small card had appeared in the dark note. The card was black, and it didn’t seem like the kind of thing that would be stuffed through the crack of the door when staying in a hotel at night.

The card was a little cold in his hand, and there were two lines of words carved on it:

“Lost Town welcomes you, the new home of the dead.”

Zhou ze frowned slightly. The new home of the dead?

The home of the dead should be hell. Why would a town suddenly appear here?

“Boss, this is a business robbery!”The old man shouted directly.

Zhou ze nodded,

yes,

it was indeed a business robbery.

“No wonder boss, when you were unconscious, no one came to your door. I thought it was strange,”said Bai Yingying.

Boss Zhou liked to lie in the bookstore, read the newspaper, drink coffee, and be a salted fish. That was also based on the fact that every day, there would be dead souls coming to his door to deliver business and death notes. Now, there were people stealing business.., of course, boss Zhou couldn’t just smile magnanimously and ignore them.

Moreover, according to the rules of the nether world, every area in the yang-realm had a corresponding ghost errand that was responsible. In this area, the ghost errand monopolized the local Ghost Express industry. Once a monopoly appeared and they got used to it, if there was any competition.., the monopolist certainly wouldn’t think about improving the service level to increase their competitiveness. Instead, they would instinctively choose to annex and suppress.

For example, boss Zhou did not think about developing any new activities in his bookstore to attract the spirits of the dead. Instead, he instinctively chose a more direct and brutal way.

“Call Lin Ke. We’ll go out at three in the morning.”

Zhou ze lit a cigarette. The Little Loli had to contribute in this matter. All along, Zhou Ze ate meat while the little loli drank soup beside him. This time, the unfamiliar competitor was equivalent to ruining their business together.

“Should we go out and talk to them?”The old priest asked.

Zhou Ze looked at the old priest and smiled,

he said,

“Kill them.”

Any existence that affects my ability to be a salted fish..,

is a heretic..,

must be dealt with resolutely!

Those who obstruct my salted fish..,

die!
