It was going too smoothly. Of course, this smoothness wasn't artificially arranged, which reminded Zhou Ze of a certain shampoo commercial:

Naturally smooth.

Both Zhou Ze and Lawyer An had found their own clues, stemming from the zombie incident of that year.

Actually, for those with intentions who aren't ordinary people, it's really easy to follow the clues to this point.

And the reason why all of this happened, as well as the main factor behind the panic at the end of the last century,

actually stemmed from this guy, who, having nothing to do, yawned when he sensed someone approaching.

In ancient times, strange phenomena in the sky could cause panic among the people below, and even the emperor had to issue an edict of self-blame.

Don't look at how miserable this half-face is now,

but in terms of the level of life, he, being derived from Ying Gou,

is really like the sky compared to ordinary people.

Do you think he did it on purpose, just playing around?

If it were someone else,

after coming in,

a series of ambiguous dialogues and exchanges,

a faint sense of atmosphere like a senior and junior, or like fellow villagers and family members,

mixed with a little bit of yearning and admiration,

all thrown into one pot,

it would be easy to believe that the person in front of them was a comrade with lofty ideals and beliefs.

For example,

Lawyer An next to him,

he really believed it, and even thought he had seen through everything. He even took the initiative to gesture to the little boy, wanting to call the little boy over, to seize this opportunity before Yingying.

Of course, it wasn't that Lawyer An was deliberately "seeking personal gain," but he could also see that:

Zhou Ze probably wouldn't want his woman to be possessed by another man.

The control of the heat was really quite good.

Everyone has a "self-satisfied" mentality,

always feeling that they are special, and believing that luck will fall on them.

"Heh..."

The half-face laughed.

Zhou Ze, on the other hand, bent down, like inspecting a pig's trotter in a vegetable market, carefully observing the other party's quality.

It was also like a picky old lady looking at jewelry, the meaning of scrutiny was extremely obvious.

The half-face turned around and asked:

"You want to kill me?"

Zhou Ze shook his head and said very frankly, "I can't."

Yes, he couldn't.

Even Ying Gou, the reason why he was able to successfully devour King Equality Lu in the first place, was because King Equality Lu took the initiative to disintegrate himself, gave up all resistance, and even cooked himself and put himself on the table for Ying Gou to enjoy.

He, Zhou Ze, didn't have the ability to tear this piece of taffy apart.

It wasn't that he couldn't forcibly swallow him, and then rely on the Mount Tai in his soul to suppress and crush him. This thought had been lingering in Zhou Ze's mind.

But Boss Zhou didn't dare to gamble on this,

he was very worried,

what if Mount Tai couldn't crush him,

but was instead shattered by him,

then the joke would be too big.

This one,

is really not ordinary,

no matter how much importance you give him, it's not an exaggeration.

If he screwed up,

and Ying Gou fell into a deep sleep again,

wouldn't this guy be "returning home in glory"?

Zhou Ze sat down below, leaning against the stone platform, and said:

"I won't cause any trouble,

let's just continue to maintain a little bit of simplicity and beauty,

reminisce,

chat,

and then I'll leave,

after leaving, I'll have someone re-seal this grave robber's hole, at least for thirty years, you won't be able to break it, and your breath won't affect the outside.

Thirty years later,

if I'm still alive,

I'll come again to take a look at you,

offer incense,

and reinforce the seal for you."

"Thank you."

"We're all family, no need to be polite."

"Heh."

"Heh heh."

Then,

it was silent.

Zhou Ze made a gesture to get up, and at the same time said, "It seems you don't have anything to chat about, so, good night?"

"What do you want me to talk about?"

He still wanted to talk,

after all,

compared to the numbness of physical torture,

this long-term solitude seemed even more unbearable.

"Of course, it's to talk about some happy things, like, who made you so miserable and sealed you here."

"..." Half-face.

Again, silence,

silence.

Zhou Ze got up and prepared to leave.

Actually, if this guy was here in one piece, not so miserable, Boss Zhou might not have been able to restrain himself, wanting to fight with him, and eat him back. How much loss could he make up for?

At that time,

Tie Hanhan (Iron Dummy) might be able to wake up.

He was indeed the best and most ideal "tonic,"

after all, they had the same origin.

However, now that he was so miserable, Zhou Ze didn't dare to act rashly. The existence that could make him so miserable must be very powerful, and that powerful existence couldn't kill him;

Boss Zhou had always thought that his greatest advantage was knowing his own limits.

In Little Loli's words, it's called: knowing your place.

"You'll run into it eventually when you're supposed to."

Such a sentence came from the cage.

"Pretending to be mysterious."

Zhou Ze shook his head helplessly,

"We're not filming a TV series, trying to leave the suspense to the end for ratings. I don't believe that if you say the person's identity, you'll be struck by lightning immediately."

"Heh heh, have you been struck by lightning?"

"..." Zhou Ze.

It seemed like they couldn't chat happily.

Lawyer An and Yingying next to him looked at Zhou Ze together,

almost nodding for their boss.

"It's hard for someone who hasn't been struck by lightning to understand that feeling."

"Um, I seem to..."

"That's a great terror, outsiders can't understand it at all."

"Sorry."

"What?"

"If I remember correctly, I seem to have been struck by lightning a few days ago?"

"..." Half-face.

"The conditions are met, can you tell me now?"

"Actually, I've already said it."

Hearing this, Zhou Ze raised his head thoughtfully, and at the same time pointed upwards, saying:

"Is it Heaven?"

"It's an immortal."

Immortal!

This was the second time Zhou Ze had heard about "immortals" this month.

Once was in the bookstore in Tongcheng, when Madam Bai almost used something related to "immortals" to "overthrow" herself.

Especially in the pit that was blown out,

that doll with colorful lines on its body,

if he didn't have the aura of Mount Tai and Tie Hanhan (Iron Dummy) around him,

he might have "plop" knelt down at that time.

That feeling was still fresh in his mind, as if "kneeling" to accept the immortal's touch was so natural.

It was like when family members call you to kowtow to your ancestors during sacrifices.

The second time was right in front of him.

Someone who could, in front of Ying Gou,

act cool and then wave his sleeves,

not taking away a single cloud but taking away Ying Gou's accumulation of thousands of years,

but in the end,

still fell before the word "immortal."

Zhou Ze remembered that when he used to watch *Journey to the West* or other mythological stories, he always had a fixed way of thinking: this world was divided into heaven, earth, and man.

There was the immortal realm, the human realm, and the underworld.

Now Zhou Ze had come from hell,

standing on earth,

but where exactly this "immortal" was, Zhou Ze really didn't know.

"Do you want him to find you?" The half-face shouted with a smile, "Don't worry, don't worry, when the time comes, he will come to find..."

"Don't want to."

"..." Half-face.

The half-face suddenly felt that the person didn't kill him back then, but he was now very likely to be angered to death by this junior watchdog in front of him!

Damn it,

I really want to strangle this bastard!

Isn't it good to live well?

That was Zhou Ze's thought. If it weren't for Tie Hanhan (Iron Dummy) being asleep, he wouldn't have planned to come out this time.

After going back this time, he would have to hide for a while. When others went out, they were tired from traveling. He was not only tired, but also had to be struck by lightning.

How many people in this world dared to travel at the risk of being struck by lightning?

If he could always maintain this stable and beautiful rhythm of life in the bookstore,

why would I want to go out and cause trouble?

I'm living a very comfortable life now, am I idle?

With the experience of his previous life, Zhou Ze was truly satisfied with the current state and rhythm of life in the bookstore.

No need to go to work, no need to struggle, no need to look at the faces of leaders and bosses, no need to deal with the communication of colleagues,

not lacking money,

not lacking a house,

and with Yingying by his side,

what else could he want?

"What about the specifics? Aren't you going to say something?"

"I can't say it, it's meaningless to say it."

"Then I'm really leaving this time."

Zhou Ze got up,

and walked out of the main tomb chamber.

Lawyer An glanced at the cage, gritted his teeth, and followed Zhou Ze out.

The little boy and Yingying naturally followed closely behind.

In the main tomb chamber,

it suddenly became quiet,

and after a while,

there was a "kacha kacha" sound,

like gnashing teeth, but much more intense than gnashing teeth.

Anyway, he had nothing else to do these years. Besides sleeping, he had to find something else to pass the time.

Grinding and grinding,

he stopped,

although he was covered by the cage,

he could still "see,"

see Zhou Ze, going back and forth.

He smiled,

smiled and said:

"You've finally come back after all."

As if everything,

was under his control,

the half-face released the iron rod,

smiling.

He was very happy,

yes,

being able to see Ying Gou's watchdog, how could he not have ambition and desire?

Those muddleheaded people, those who were not in the mainstream, didn't even have the qualifications to know of Ying Gou's existence.

"Um."

Zhou Ze's face was a little embarrassed, as if he was a little shy.

"Heh heh, it's human nature, it's human nature, just like me, I also dream of one day being able to walk out of here, find a physical body that suits me to go out..."

The half-face stopped talking,

because he "saw" Zhou Ze walking to the corner of the main tomb chamber,

"saw" Zhou Ze picking up a wine jar,

"saw" Zhou Ze waving at him with the wine jar,

"Forgot to take it, sorry, this is what you promised to give me."

After speaking,

Zhou Ze walked out holding the wine jar,

without looking back,

as if afraid that the half-face would go back on his word.

"..." Half-face.

He had endured the pain of his body being divided for who knows how many years,

he had endured the loneliness and confinement of who knows how many years,

he had persevered,

he had persevered, he had great perseverance and great faith,

however,

at this moment,

he suddenly wanted to give up,

he,

wanted to die...
