Midnight Bookstore Chapter 261

On the asphalt road in the countryside, the young man was riding his bicycle home with his backpack on his back. The young man was wearing a blue shirt, jeans, and a crew cut. He did not have too many unnecessary decorations. In this era, where killing Matt was very popular, he seemed to be a little too simple. However, the young man was very good-looking and very exquisite. He was a little similar to the Korean male bands that became popular in the country in the next few years. However, those Korean male stars still had to put on makeup in front of the camera to highlight their femininity, however, the young man did not need to do that at all. This was his natural state. Beside him, there were a few more bicycles. The leader was a long-haired man with exaggerated bangs. “Little Xu, your back view is really good-looking. You’re even better looking than our class Belle. hahahaha!” “Yeah, damn it. I was riding my bike well at the back, but when I saw your back view, I immediately got hard on my bike. Now I don’t even know how to ride a bike.” “Right, right, right. Let Little Xu take responsibility for you. Let him help you defuse your anger.” “It’s said that women are the same when the lights are off. Even if Little Xu doesn’t turn off the lights, he feels no different from a woman.” The young man called Little Xu continued to ride his bike, ignoring the words of the people around him. He was already used to it, from kindergarten until now.., he was already used to it and had learned to ignore it, so that these flies would not affect his mood. But at this moment, a person beside him deliberately turned the car around and forcefully stopped Xiao Xu’s car. “What are you doing?”Xiao Xu asked with a frown. “What are you doing? You Hit Me, Why are you asking me?” As he said this, the young man directly got off the car and reached out to grab Xiao Xu’s shoulder, “Damn it, your body still smells good. You must be burning incense. You said you were a good man, but you had to disguise yourself as a woman. Is it interesting? “Since you want to be a woman, I’ll let you experience the feeling of being a woman!” Provocation.., was actually just to find a reason.., teenagers at this age did not have a very direct concept of evil. No, to be exact, they did not have a clear understanding of the price they could bear for doing something. And because of that.., they were even more unscrupulous. Moreover, in their opinion, or even in the eyes of the public, bullying a girl was not good for their reputation, but bullying a man was not a big deal. “Let go of me, get lost!” “Yo, you’re quite unreasonable!” Fortunately.., at this age, there were not many who had developed the taste of a broken sleeve. These boys were just having fun with their hands, playing around for fun, and then they rode their bikes back. Xiao Xu stood up, tidied up his clothes and picked up his bike. He was very calm. Even if he was bullied for a while, he would not make a fuss. This was life, the life of an ordinary person. “It’s not your fault that you look like a woman.” An old voice came from behind him. The youth was stunned for a moment. He turned around to take a glance. It was an old farmer. He was wearing liberation shoes and there were a few clear patches on his coat. The young man ignored the old man. He got into the car and prepared to go home. “Don’t you want to have the ability to protect yourself?”The old man continued to ask. “Are you going to teach me the eighteen dragon-subduing palms?”The young man turned around and asked, “My parents are still waiting for me to go home for dinner. They don’t have the time to bother with you.” At that time, when Zhou Xingchi’s movie “Kung Fu”was on fire, some of the jokes and jokes in it were also widely known. The old man stood where he was, he looked at the back of the young man who was riding his bicycle slowly pulling away, he said in a low voice, “Oh, now that my parents are dead, they have the time to talk to me, right?” The next day, the young man who was in class was called out by his uncle in the village to tell him the news of his parents drowning in the fish pond. The young man’s parents could be considered a generation of smart people, especially in the countryside. They had the courage to take out loans to buy land and engage in large-scale aquaculture, which was not something that ordinary people dared to do. It was said that when the parents were cleaning up the fish pond, the mother fell into the water first, and the father also fell into the water when he went down to pull the mother. The two people who were good at swimming died in confusion. The young man was left alone. With the help of so-called family and friends and villagers, the young man began to perform funerals in a muddle-headed manner. The young man was like a marionette, being manipulated to do what he was supposed to do as a “Filial son.”. Kowtowing, smashing cans, returning gifts, wearing mourning clothes. The only thing worth rejoicing about was that his parents’loans had almost been repaid in the past two years. However, the embarrassing thing was that his parents had met with an accident when aquaculture had just entered the point of recovering its cost and was about to make a profit. The young man did not know what the future would be like. He also did not expect that, thanks to the country.., the real estate boom that followed allowed him to obtain windfall gains from land acquisition. His parents’efforts for most of their lives actually left him an extremely rich inheritance. More than 20 houses. Even if it wasn’t in a big city like Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, where every inch of land was worth a fortune, it was enough to be considered a huge asset. Of course, who could predict what would happen in the future? At least on the night of the wake.., the youth was still at a loss. Regarding his own life, regarding his own future, regarding everything that would happen in the future, he was at a loss. Then.., the old man appeared, he was still wearing liberation shoes, he was still wearing patched clothes, he walked to the altar and lit three incense sticks, then he turned around, he looked at the youth, he asked, “I have a way to get your parents back to you. Are You Willing?” This time.., the youth nodded, even if this old man was a big liar, a big liar, or even a human trafficker.., the youth would still nod without hesitation. A drowning person would disregard everything. Even if the person next to him deliberately came down to save him, the drowning person would still grab onto him without hesitation. Even if he ended up drowning the person who saved him.., he would never let go. … .. “That night, I saw you. I originally wanted you to be bitten to death by that zombie. In the end, you were lucky and actually did not die.” The Black Shadow continued to speak. Xu Qinglang’s eyes were bloodshot, like a wild beast that had gone mad. Xu Qinglang had always been calm in front of others. The most common thing he did was to put cucumber slices on his face after meals to maintain his skin. No matter what happened, he would deliberately maintain his amorous nature. But at this time.., he was almost mad, his hatred had completely drowned him! He.., actually called his father-killer and mother-killer as his master! And all these years, he had always been grateful to him, missed him, and even prayed for him during the festive season! Xu Qinglang felt like he was a joke.., a huge joke. “Heaven and earth have no limit, Xuanxin Zhengfa!” His hands formed a seal, he chanted the incantation For a moment.., the wind and water rose. But at this moment, the flute suddenly stopped and a wave of air swept over. Xu Qinglang, who was in the bathtub, felt that the water around him had instantly turned into an extremely thick liquid and began to pour into his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose. At this moment.., he felt that he was not in the bathtub, instead, he was deep in a terrifying swamp. “You’re using what I taught you to deal with me? Not to mention that you haven’t learned it at all. Even if you’ve learned everything that I taught you, what do you think you are in front of me?” Xu Qinglang struggled desperately in the bathtub with a pained expression on his face. He had just detoxified the corpse poison, and he was already weak at this moment, not to mention that he had encountered such a situation. “In order to set the right path, I put in a lot of effort on you back then “But not only did you not adhere to the path of cultivation on the right path, but you are now living in the same room with Evil Demons and deviants “If I had not taught you back then, I could have taught others. You have wasted resources and let down the right path! “You have let me down.., “Today, I will.., “Clean up the sect!” The Black Shadow’s voice was a little slow, he seemed to be weaving a reason for himself, as he thought, he spoke, as he did things, he found an excuse, the Xu Qinglang in front of him was not a zombie. Perhaps, that night, he woke up the zombie that was killed by Zhou Ze and bit Xu Qinglang. His goal was to turn him into a zombie so that he could find a suitable excuse to kill him in the future. Now that Xu Qinglang had successfully detoxified, he had become a human again. Therefore.., the Black Shadow had to find a new excuse to support him in killing Xu Qinglang. Because he really wanted to kill him and kill this disciple who had disappointed him. Fresh blood started to ooze out from Xu Qinglang’s eyes, ears, mouth, nose, and mouth. It gradually dyed the color of the bathtub red. It was very miserable. “Clang!” It was also at this moment that the bedroom door was pushed open. The death attendant stood at the door. His gaze scanned the black figure, he remembered that Zhou Ze had instructed before he left, that things that should not appear should not appear. He walked towards the black figure, he reached out and grabbed the black figure, he grabbed a piece of human skin that was as thin as a Cicada’s wing, then.., he tore it apart! But in the next moment.., a new black shadow appeared behind the death attendant, his hand was like a piece of paper, but incomparably sharp, it directly pierced through the death attendant’s chest and lifted him up, the death attendant’s feet left the ground, but he wasn’t completely dead. “Don’t be anxious.., the next.., is You.” “Buzz!” The death attendant’s body suddenly retreated. He actually slid down the black shadow’s arm. Ignoring the wound that was continuously magnified, he once again arrived in front of the Black Shadow. Opening his mouth, he bit down! A piece of human skin, like a thin pancake, was swallowed by him in one bite, chewing, swallowing. For trash, this was the death attendant’s usual way of handling it. But in the next moment, two hands pierced out from the death attendant’s stomach, the thing that had just been swallowed inside, was attempting to crawl out again, like a newborn baby, welcomed its own birthday. “Roar!” The death attendant let out a roar and pressed down with both hands, trying to send that thing back into his stomach, however, the force of the thing inside began to grow stronger and stronger, moreover, in this kind of tug-of-war, the cracks on the death attendant’s body also grew larger and larger, like a horse carriage, about to fall apart..
