Chapter 104 Bian Hua Temple's Secret

The bald monk scratched his head in distress, then let his arms fall dejectedly, slowly crossing his hands as he said,

"Officer Zhou, the underworld is vast, I know.

But this is, after all, the land of the living. No matter how long your underworld's arms are, don't even think about causing trouble here.

Moreover,

This poor monk hasn't reached nirvana yet!"

The bald monk suddenly straightened his arms, and two talisman papers appeared in his palms. The talisman papers were purple, and at this moment, some electric snakes were actually flowing inside.

When the bald monk first entered the bookstore, he mocked the old Taoist, pointing out that he and the old Taoist were not the same kind of people, because in his opinion, the old Taoist was just a charlatan who freeloaded, while he was a truly virtuous existence.

"Wuwu...wuwu...wuwu..."

The young ladies standing densely packed along the second-floor railing all made this sound at the same time. For a time, gusts of yin wind stirred in the first-floor area.

A monk,

Cooperating with a group of ghosts,

This combination was a bit strange,

But it did indeed give the bald monk a bit of a home-field advantage.

"I don't care about the affairs of the living, but the affairs of ghosts are my business. Monk, you've crossed the line!"

"Then let's see who lives and who dies. Do you really think you're invincible with a ghost official certificate? The world is big, and it's not just Tong City!"

The bald monk directly pounced over. He wasn't very tall, but his thighs were thick. This kind of short tiger could run with the force of the wind!

"Wuwu...wuwu...wuwu..."

Just as Zhou Ze was about to rush forward as well,

Threads of black silk suddenly shot out from the mouths of the young ladies above, instantly falling down and wrapping around his armor. Then, the originally soft silk threads suddenly exerted force together. In an instant, Zhou Ze was like prey caught in a spider web.

He subconsciously wanted to break free, but he felt as if he were stuck in a quagmire, unable to extricate himself.

And the bald monk was already approaching. Zhou Ze could even hear the "buzzing" sound coming from the talisman paper in his palm.

Closing his eyes,

There was no other way,

Zhou Ze could only choose to enter that state.

Although his physical condition wasn't very good right now, and he hadn't fully recovered, Zhou Ze felt that solving the trouble in front of him wouldn't be a problem. The worst that could happen was that he'd be unconscious for another half month.

"Buzz!"

Just as Zhou Ze closed his eyes, a long tongue suddenly extended from the second floor, lashing out like a whip.

"Slap, slap, slap, slap, slap..."

It was as if every young lady had been slapped hard in the face.

All the silk threads wrapped around Zhou Ze's armor snapped in response, and Zhou Ze regained his freedom.

The little loli's figure appeared on the second floor, holding a "Third Grade Math Exercise Book" in her hand.

She really had secretly found a place to do her homework!

The little loli rubbed her eyes, yawned, licked her lips, and then leaned on the railing with one hand, looking at Zhou Ze below. She was every bit the little girl who couldn't help but feel sleepy from staying up late to do homework, looking cute and charming.

As the bald monk arrived in front of Zhou Ze, Zhou Ze directly thrust his fingernails out.

"Pfft!"

Zhou Ze's ten fingers pierced through the bald monk's palms,

But in an instant,

The electric snakes on the talisman paper seemed to have been given life, directly窜 into Zhou Ze's body. Zhou Ze felt a burst of numbness all over his body and knelt down subconsciously.

And even though he was enduring the pain of having his palms pierced, the bald monk still maintained his standing posture, a mocking smile on his lips.

"This poor monk said..."

The next moment,

Zhou Ze raised his head, his fingernails growing longer again.

"Pfft!"

It was like the sound of cloth being torn apart,

The bald monk's palms directly exploded,

"Ahhhhh!"

The bald monk screamed and kept retreating backward. Without his hands, he looked so uncoordinated, especially his arms, which looked like popsicles, were very abrupt.

Zhou Ze took several deep breaths.

He was a little tired.

Because of the little loli's help earlier, he still chose not to enter that state. He'd avoid being paralyzed if he could. Who liked to play unconscious for no reason?

He stood up somewhat reluctantly. There were many pitted marks on his armor, like scars left after being burned by fire.

Honestly, if it weren't for this armor, the bald monk's talisman paper just now could have killed Zhou Ze. That kind of thing was really a great nemesis to ghosts.

The bald monk put his hands behind his back, his forehead facing upward, actually still paying attention to maintaining his pride at this time.

Zhou Ze felt a little strange, because the last time they met at the bookstore, although the bald monk seemed a bit chuuni to him, he still had the demeanor of a high monk. How come this one here was not only playing with women, but was also hopping around so much when fighting?

This wasn't like a celebrity trying to play a character role.

The contrast in this guy's character before and after was really puzzling.

"Wuwuwu..."

The young ladies on the second floor seemed to want to cause trouble again.

The little loli turned her head and opened her mouth again.

This time, the long tongue was merciless, directly piercing through them one after another like candied haws. Then, the long snake flew and rolled in the second-floor space,

Even the young ladies on the tongue were spinning, jumping, and closing their eyes.

This appearance looked like a child who hadn't lost their innocence had found a novel game, but soon she got tired of playing it and directly flicked her tongue. The young ladies on it fell down one by one,砸在了地上, stacked together, like sheets of paper figures, or like deflated inflatable dolls.

Letting out a long sigh,

The little loli stuck out her tongue, as if it was a little sore. Then, she picked up her mechanical pencil, opened her exercise book again, and urged,

"You continue, I'm doing homework."

After not seeing her for half a month, Zhou Ze found that the little loli seemed to have returned to her previous cold and aloof feeling, and her style of doing things was also unrestrained.

It was like how she first read books in his bookstore, and when she got tired, she ran next door to take away the souls of Xu Qinglang's parents, struck a pose, watched Xu Qinglang趴在地上 and then waved her hand and went back next door to read.

Perhaps it was because her injuries had fully recovered?

But your魂血 is still in my hands,

You're acting so arrogant, it makes me very unhappy.

Who is the boss, you or me?

Zhou Ze really wanted to order the little loli to come down and fight, but he also felt that it wasn't very appropriate for him, an adult, to disturb the child when she said she wanted to do her homework?

The bald monk wasn't idle at this time either. He bit the tip of his tongue and spat out a mouthful of blood, and then began to chant incantations non-stop.

For a time,梵音浩荡, as if there was a spotlight shining on him from behind, carrying a kind of sacred and inviolable aura.

This light made Zhou Ze a little uncomfortable.

Many times Zhou Ze forgot that he was actually a ghost, and instead still thought he was a person. It wasn't until this moment that he clearly perceived that人鬼殊途.

In this world, there really were many things that were naturally restrained against ghosts.

Fortunately, Xu Qinglang wasn't idle at this time either. He was very straightforward, not taking out talisman paper or护心镜之类的玩意儿, because he knew that his things were for dealing with ghosts. By the same logic, no matter how dazzling the monk's佛光poss was, it could only have some effect on Zhou Ze, and it wouldn't have much effect on Xu Qinglang, or even no effect at all.

Therefore, Xu Qinglang used the most direct method, directly throwing a punch!

Lao Xu knew how to fight. Although he looked like a woman, he was a hooligan when he was young. If he hadn't been ordered to reform by the police chief back then, he might still be a very non-mainstream hooligan. His martial arts skills were actually not bad.

The bald monk had only chanted a few sentences of the scriptures when he took several punches from Xu Qinglang in a row.

This was a bit like bullying.

The bald monk's cultivation was indeed higher than Xu Qinglang's, but many of his methods were for dealing with demons and ghosts. Xu Qinglang was a human, so his life's learning became a dragonslaying skill, completely unable to be used.

In addition, the monk's hands had just been torn apart by Zhou Ze, so at this time he was beaten by Xu Qinglang to the point where he didn't have the slightest temper.

Xu Qinglang even got more and more addicted to the beating, and simply overturned the monk on the ground, and then sat on him with his legs spread wide and slapped him back and forth.

"Slap, slap, slap, slap!!!"

Zhou Ze on the side slowly put away the armor on his body.

He remembered that Xu Qinglang used to say that his fighting was like a shrew, only knowing how to scratch.

Now looking at Xu Qinglang's way of fighting,

Tsk tsk.

Like those young ladies, the bald monk was actually beaten until he started leaking air.

In the end,

While slapping, the bald monk turned into a paper figure. The paper figure was drawn with the appearance of the bald monk, and written on it were his birth date and the seven words "greed, anger, ignorance, hatred, love, evil, desire."

The little loli walked down from upstairs, looked at the paper on the ground, and said, "This isn't the monk's real body. It should be a substitute left behind. It's really a good method, leaving behind the things on his body that violate the precepts, and only keeping his purity and Buddha-nature."

Zhou Ze nodded. In this way, the bald monk's inconsistent reactions before and after could be explained.

However, what exactly exists here?

Or rather... a secret?

Zhou Ze walked forward and tried to push open the screen in front of him, but found that the screen was fake, painted on the wall.

"The space here seems very large, but it's actually very, very small. Including the rooms on the second floor, the doors and windows are all painted on," the little loli said.

Zhou Ze took two steps back,

Then he rushed forward and kicked the screen.

"Bang!"

The screen shattered,

Even this wall collapsed along with it,

In front,

Was a very dark space,

Dozens of people of different ages and clothing were standing alone inside, shaking non-stop. They were亡魂, which was the业绩 that Boss Zhou had lost during this period.

And at the feet of the亡魂, a few scattered flowers were blooming.

The petals were graceful,

The stamens were tempting,

The fragrance was fragrant,

The branches were graceful.

"What kind of flower is this? It's quite pretty. I haven't seen it before.

Isn't today 520?

It's just right to pick some and give it away. It wasn't a wasted trip, right?"

Xu Qinglang asked, pointing to the flowers in front.

Then he didn't get a response,

Turning his head to look behind him,

Xu Qinglang found that Zhou Ze and the little loli were both looking at him with傻子eyes.

"Huh? What's wrong?" Xu Qinglang asked in confusion.

The little loli pointed to the flowers in front, looked at Xu Qinglang,

And said:

"Flowers bloom on the other shore, yet there is no shore. Souls fall into the River of Forgetfulness, yet remain in the river.

This is... the manjusaka."
