Chapter 164 - 24 scars
Chapter 164: 24 scars
Zhou ze closed his eyes. He could not fall asleep, but he liked the feeling of lying down on the sofa against the glass window and enjoying the sunlight on his body.
In his previous life, he had always been at work, operating beside the operating table. It was hard for him to stop, but in this life, he could make up for it.
After listening to Zhou Ze’s explanation, Bai Yingying seemed to understand, but at the same time, she also seemed to not understand. But at least one thing was certain, Zhou Ze had already predicted this.
Because of this, the boss would not worry about the remaining eight million. No, actually, it was because the boss knew that that woman would not have a good ending, so he was too lazy to ask for it from that woman.
Bai Yingying reached out and rubbed her hair, stomping her feet as she walked to the bar counter.
The old priest was eating peanuts with a monkey, one for each monkey. The Man and the monkey were eating with relish. When Zhou Ze and Bai Yingying were explaining earlier, the old priest was also listening. After listening, he walked away with a smile.
“Old Priest, let me ask you a question. Do you understand what the boss just said?”Bai Yingying reached out and pushed the old priest’s shoulder.
“What?”Old Taoist turned his head and looked at Bai Yingying in surprise. Then he said, “Didn’t the boss explain it to you just now?”
“I don’t fully understand.”Bai Yingying took a deep breath and exhaled heavily.
Although old Taoist looked very old, he was not half as old as her. Bai Yingying felt that she could not see through some things as clearly as him.
This was natural. Although Bai Yingying was 200 years old, she spent most of her time lying in a coffin and only talked to Madam Bai’s ghost. Therefore, she still retained the innocence of a 16-or 17-year-old girl.
“Actually, this matter is very simple, just like why NUWA wanted to kill Daji. As a saint, she naturally has to be radiant and holy. How can there be a stain on her?
“Therefore, regardless of whether Daji completed the mission or not, she was destined to die. If she wanted to destroy the Shang dynasty, what else could she do but harm the loyal and unscrupulous people?
“One must know that in the god Ascension rankings, even if King Zhou was Wudao, there were many Immortals and forces that helped him. Jiang Ziya’s fight was not very smooth, so Daji was definitely the best teammate.
However, in reality, from the moment Daji was sent out, Daji had already been sentenced to a suspended death sentence.
In ancient times, many high-ranking people treated the knives in their hands like this. When the high-ranking people needed them, these knives would help them kill the people they didn’t want to see. After the mission was completed, the cunning rabbit would die and the lackey would be cooked.
Break the knife and show it to the world,
look..,
the criminal has been executed by the great me, and I’m still as pure and spotless as ever.”
“Then this woman?”
“Didn’t the boss say that he found some array formation and that half of the Snake in the house?
Then it must have been placed by that woman. The old man was so rich, why did he end up living in the house on the other side of the ancestral home? “Who was responsible for the design and layout of the house?
“Obviously, the old man was tricked. Although he deserved it and was not worthy of sympathy, as a matter of fact, someone had pulled him into a trap step by step.
“Even if there was nothing wrong with the snake in the sea, it would be difficult for it to come to land for revenge, not to mention that there was something wrong with it. Therefore, someone must have pulled the strings. Then who pulled the strings? Only that woman is the most suitable.”
“Is she the snake’s helper?”Bai Yingying shook her head after saying that. “No, Boss has an agreement with the snake not to kill that woman. The snake agreed to it at the beginning.”
The old priest looked at Zhou Ze who was still “Napping”, he said, “It’s not a snake. It’s very simple. Master Poseidon doesn’t like that old man. I don’t know if it’s because the old man did something outrageous when he made his fortune a few years ago, or he did a lot of dirty things in the name of Poseidon. Isn’t That Old Man a sea smuggler?”?
Therefore, that woman was like the Daji sent by the sea god. Even this penniless priest felt that the reason why that old man was so selfish that it was beyond human comprehension was that he could even grit his teeth and sacrifice his entire family, it was possible that he was bewitched by that woman.
Or, there was another possibility. The sea god Master was unhappy with that snake. He felt that if that snake became a spirit, it might affect him. Hence, he made a trap for that snake, in the end, the snake did not hesitate to die to seek revenge on land. Master Poseidon was happy to see that happen.
In short, no matter what, that woman must die. If she died, master Poseidon would still be the same master Poseidon. He would continue to maintain his great sanctity.”
“Then, that woman is really pitiful.”Bai Yingying sighed.
“There’s nothing pitiful about it. This is fate. It Can’t be changed. Look, even the boss has moved on.”
Zhou Ze stood up at this moment. He glanced at the old priest and Bai Yingying who were muttering to each other and walked upstairs.
After pushing open the bedroom door, Zhou Ze walked to the window and lit a cigarette. On the windowsill, there was a painting scroll. Zhou Ze had asked the old priest to buy it the day after that.
The old priest had also spent a lot of effort to find the same painting of the sea god. After all, there were still too few people hanging his portrait at home.
Zhou ze stretched out his hand and opened the painting scroll,
he looked at the painting for a long time,
finally..,
he took out a lighter and lit a corner of the painting paper. Then, he placed it on the anti-theft window on the windowsill and watched it slowly burn into ashes.
“What are you sad about?”
The Little Loli’s voice came from behind Zhou Ze.
“Don’t you know how to knock before entering?”Zhou ze said with some dissatisfaction.
Biu!
The Little Loli’s figure appeared outside the door and knocked on it.
“Dong Dong Dong…”
“Come in.”
Biu!
The Little Loli’s figure appeared in the room again.
“Whose portrait did you burn?”The Little Loli asked.
“It’s none of your business.”
“Fine, I don’t care. I came because I received a message from that stupid zombie.”
“I said tomorrow.”
“But he will go to Shanghai Tonight, and then he will fly back to Japan at 10 pm,”the Little Loli reminded.
“Why didn’t you inform me about this before?”
“I also just found out about the information of his plane ticket.”The Little Loli looked as if she was already very fast.
“Then where is he now?”
“One of the three hiding places. In the past, he took turns day by day, but today, I’m not sure if he will continue to follow the rules.
“However, I think it’s more likely that he is in one of the three hiding places.”
“Why?”
“Because when I was following him, I found that in the house at that place, I could always sense another strange aura. Although it was very weak and not worth mentioning, it was somewhat special compared to the other two places.
“Since he’s preparing to return to Japan, he must have brought something back, such as his most successful research results?”
After the Little Loli finished speaking, she took two steps back and said to Zhou Ze,
“In short, you decide.”
“Call Yingying. You Go to that place with me.”
“Okay.”
Zhou Ze changed into a black hoodie and walked down the stairs. At the same time, he called out to Bai Yingying. Bai Yingying immediately followed him and sat in the car. She didn’t even ask what they were going to do.
When Bai Yingying got into the car, she found the Little Loli sitting next to her. This time, the Little Loli had obviously brought a soul but not a body.
“Stupid zombie, you don’t even know when you’ve been sold,”the Little Loli mocked.
“You’re jealous of me.”
“Who’s so stupid to be jealous of you?”
“You’re just jealous of me.”
“I won’t be jealous of You!”
“You’re still jealous of me.”
The Little Loli stopped talking. She felt that it was too stupid to continue arguing on this topic.
Zhou Ze took out his phone and said to the little loli, “Give me the address.”
The Little Loli gave him the address. After Zhou Ze successfully located the address, he started the car. Not long after they drove out, a call came in.
Zhou Ze wanted to hang up, but when he saw that it was Xu Qinglang, he answered.
“Hello, How are things at Your Place?”
“The old man’s house. How many people are there in total?”
“Why are you asking about this?”
“Answer me.”
Zhou ze closed his eyes and recalled for a moment. “Including the old man, there are twenty-four.”
..
In the resuscitation room of the affiliated hospital, Xu Qinglang sat alone on a bench in the corridor. He lowered his head and looked at the tiles on the floor.
Finally, the doctor came out and the police came over.
The doctor and the police did not ask Xu Qinglang about the death of the woman. Of course, Xu Qinglang was not a suspect in this matter, because the woman had left a suicide note on her social media app before she committed suicide.
This suicide was a done deal.
Seeing the nurse push the stretcher out with a white sheet covering it, Xu Qinglang stood up and walked to the stretcher:
“I want to see her again.”
The two nurses looked at each other and mistakenly thought that Xu Qinglang and the woman who had committed suicide by taking poison were lovers. After hesitating for a while, they nodded.
Xu Qinglang opened the sheet and looked at the woman’s face. She was still as beautiful as ever.
Xu Qinglang had seen her in bed and how romantic she was,
but now, she was cold.
She was neither sad nor sad. She was just a little disappointed and sad.
Xu Qinglang grabbed the woman’s wrist and looked at the scars on her wrist. His fingers gently caressed them and counted them one by one. These scars should have been cut up one by one from the past two months.
She seemed to have been preparing all this time and was also doing the final countdown.
Xu Qinglang raised his head and walked to the window in the corridor. He pushed the window open and let the wind in.
He felt that he should not be sad about anything, nor should he feel sorry for the woman lying there. But humans were such emotional animals.
What she had done, what she had done to others, what her identity was, etc. ,
but she had slept with me, so she instinctively felt a sense of affection and closeness.
She let out a long sigh,
xu Qinglang subconsciously took out his cigarette. Thinking that this was a hospital, he put it back.
He had just counted,
on the woman’s wrist,
there were,
24 scars.
