Panda Novel

Yingying’s white hair went berserk because she had slept with Zhou Ze for many years. Her bloodline had evolved to a certain extent by absorbing the aura from Zhou Ze.

This seemed to be a very difficult thing to understand, but from another point of view, it was normal.

After all, Ying Gou was one of the four great zombie ancestors of ancient times. He was once the Master of the Netherworld Sea. He dominated a region and suppressed Hell.

Even though he was a little down and out now, he still had his dignity.

This was equivalent to an old cadre who had been sent down to reform decades ago. He looked down and accepted the reform. However, if he taught you knowledge, the difference in standards between him and the teachers in your village was very significant.

Therefore, it was not surprising that Bai Yingying had such a change. It would be strange if there was no change at all.

Fortunately, Lawyer An did not know the reason. Otherwise, he would urge Zhou Ze to continue sleeping with the zombies if he knew. Since they were all sleeping, it would be a waste to only sleep with one. He would find a room full of zombies to sleep with. If they were lucky, a room full of zombies would evolve together. A zombie army would emerge from their sleep.

Of course, Yingying was not an ordinary zombie. After all, she was a life-form nurtured by Madam Bai for two hundred years. She was on a completely different level from the wildflowers and weeds by the roadside. Perhaps other zombies would not have changed much even if they had calluses from Zhou Ze’s sleep.

The tanned girl was thrown to the ground and looked at Bai Yingying in shock. Bai Yingying still had a serious expression on her face. She was very angry. In Yingying’s opinion, she had already allowed this tanned girl to enter the bookstore and plant vegetables for the boss.

She dared to hit me! She was not satisfied! Serving the boss was such a great honor. You aren’t satisfied? If it wasn’t for your dark skin, the boss wouldn’t have taken a fancy to you without any competition for me. Do you think they would let you into the bookstore?

As a woman, uh… Anyway, they had already made such a big concession, and you didn’t want to give face!

The tanned girl closed her eyes. Her body began to heat up. Her mouth opened.

Yingying instinctively jumped away from the girl’s body. A ball of soaring karmic fire spurted out from the girl’s mouth. Yingying escaped because she dodged quickly.

The girl regained her freedom and stood up again. However, it seemed that the effects of the medicine had worn off. Her face was a little pale and her body was a little shaky.

Bai Yingying’s long hair was flowing elegantly. She was as domineering as ever!

After all, one relied on the effects of the medicine, the other relied on the support of her bloodline. Although it was only a temporary gain of strength, the effects of the medicine were still a little worse and the side effects were more obvious.

“I planted the last person who asked me to help her plant vegetables.” The tanned young girl sneered as she spoke.

“Hmph.” Yingying snorted to show her disdain.

“After I planted her, I swore. I, Zhen Meili, even if I starve to death, even if I jump down from here, I won’t be anyone’s slave to plant vegetables!”

Bai Yingying tilted her head. She clenched her fists. “Then I’ll have to beat you until you cry. Then I’ll tie you up and bring you back!”

Yingying knew that this girl knew how to plant the Resurrection Lily. For her boss to eat happily every day, she had to bring this little hoof home!

“Monk, why aren’t you coming down? She’s a zombie. Your cultivation technique can restrain her. She’s too difficult to deal with. I can’t handle her!” The tanned girl shouted at the road above.

“Benefactor, you heard wrong. She’s not calling me. There must be other monks nearby.” The scabby-headed monk deliberately looked around.

Zhou Ze was about to end this matter. No matter what the scabby-headed Monk’s position was, he had to break the barrier first. Yingying’s side didn’t seem to be at a disadvantage. On the contrary, she had taken advantage of him, so he was relieved.

However, at this moment, Zhou Ze suddenly felt a pain in his chest. It was as if there was a black hole devouring his soul.

What was going on?

…

“This dog meat is awesome!” The Old Priest took another big sip of wine. He had eaten and drunk a lot today. He had not indulged himself like this since he was released from prison last time.

The Old Priest knew in his heart that what had happened that time was his problem. He felt embarrassed that he had encountered this pickling incident when he was a prostitute.

Fortunately, there was wine and meat. His previous frustrations could be temporarily swept away. He was facing Lawyer An, who was very good at dealing with his temper.

In the Old Daoist’s eyes, Lawyer An was usually like the foreman who waved his whip and urged the people in the bookstore to “Work hard. Succeed.” However, in terms of men’s preferences, he was still on the same side as himself. Unlike the boss and Xu. These two do not seem to be very important in that respect.

“Come, let’s have another drink. Then we can go and have tea!” Lawyer An raised his glass. “Let me tell you, Old Taoist. The tea in Xuzhou is not the best. The best is a little further north.”

“The capital?” The Old Taoist learned humbly.

“No, no, no.” Lawyer An shook his head. “The investigation there is very strict. It’s in the village.”

“Shijiazhuang?”

“That’s right.”

“Then we’ll take the high-speed train now…” the Old Daoist stopped mid-sentence because he knew not to go crazy. After all, there were still serious matters to do. For example, the old man stuffed in the suitcase beside him and Lin Ke, who was still looking for him.

Tonight was just a temporary break.

“Come. Cheers!” Lawyer An urged.

“Okay. Cheers!”

The two people’s cups touched each other. They drank together.

“Old Priest, you sit here for a while, I’ll go pay the bill.” After Lawyer An said this to the Old Priest, he stood up. After a few steps, he retreated and staggered back to his chair. Then, he buried his head and fell asleep.

“Hahahahaha. You are playing this trick with this penniless priest. It’s fine. This meal is on this penniless priest. This penniless priest is familiar with pockmarked Wang. He is too embarrassed to accept this penniless priest’s money. I heard that pockmarked Wang is preparing to have a second child in response to the national policy. This penniless priest will agree to help him pray for a second child for free.”

The Old Priest chuckled as he stood up. Just as he stood up, he sat back down with a “Clang”. He held his forehead, “This penniless priest feels dizzy no matter what.”

“Plop”

The Old Priest also laid down on the table and fell asleep.

“Squeak squeak squeak!”

The Little Monkey had been sleeping in the Old Priest’s bag because it was a public place. It crawled out. It did not eat anything. After jumping onto the dining table, it first looked at the Old Priest. Then it looked at Lawyer An. it reached out to grab one’s hair. It kicked the other’s neck with its foot. Then, it scratched its head. The Little Monkey was a little puzzled.

How did these two suddenly get drunk like dead pigs?

…

Zhou Ze only felt a burning sensation on his chest. His consciousness was weakening. This was not a sleeping drug, nor was it the effect of a knockout drug. He could tell because he was a doctor.

He could feel that his body was now normal. He was not sweating.

“Amitabha, the drug has finally taken effect.” The scabby-headed monk walked over, but he did not dare to get too close.

“Boss!”

Yingying sensed that her boss’s aura had suddenly and strangely declined. She couldn’t care less about the tanned girl. She immediately jumped up to support the unstable Zhou Ze.

Zhou Ze felt that his consciousness was continuously sinking. It was sinking deeper. It was very similar to the feeling of sleepiness but it was a little different.

Sleepiness could be overcome by willpower. No matter how trapped Zhou Ze was without Yingying, he couldn’t fall asleep. Just before Yingying came over, he had a strong feeling that he was about to fall asleep.

“Boss, what’s wrong?” Yingying asked anxiously.

The tanned girl also climbed up and jumped onto the road.

“Amitabha. This penniless monk almost thought that your medicine did not work.”

The tanned girl glanced at the monk with a mangy head and said unhappily, “It must be because he eats little meat, so the effect is slow. His two companions must be sleeping like dead pigs now.”

‘Drugged?’, Zhou Ze frowned. He felt that it was very difficult for him to persevere.

“Yes, fighting is not my specialty. My specialty is growing flowers. Also, poisoning.”

The tanned girl smiled very proudly. It was dangerous just now. The female zombie beside this guy did not think that it would be so troublesome. Fortunately, this guy was about to fall. When the time came, the female zombie would be left to the toad-headed monk beside him to deal with.

Buddhists had many ways to deal with hidden evils.

“My poison is not effective on the body. Only on the soul, so it’s even harder to detect it.”

The tanned girl shook her head, “Do you think I’m stupid? I know that you guys are killing everyone in the hotel, but I still dare to foolishly come up and fight you head-on? I just wanted to play.”

“Boss!” Yingying was so anxious that she was about to cry.

“Don’t cry. Don’t worry. Your boss won’t die. My poison will only put the soul into a deep sleep. It won’t hurt people’s lives. After all, since he ate my Resurrection Lily, I still have to bring him back and plant him. Otherwise, how can I make up for my loss? When people die, I’ll plant them. No one will plant them when they’re still alive.”

“When the time comes, after I tame your zombie, you can come and help me water it.”

“Amitabha.”

The monk put his palms together and chanted the name of Buddha. Then, he took out a string of Buddhist beads and threw them at Bai Yingying.

Bai Yingying had no choice but to quickly move backward with her boss on her back to avoid the fierce attack. Most importantly, the aura on the Buddhist beads made her very uncomfortable.

The monk’s Buddhist cultivation technique was extremely effective against zombies like Bai Yingying. There was a barrier set up nearby, so she couldn’t escape. He had a feeling that he had complete control of the situation.

At this moment, after forcing Bai Yingying back with one move, the monk was not in a hurry to attack. Instead, he glanced at Zhou Ze, who was almost unconscious on the back of the female zombie.

He asked the tanned girl beside him, “Amitabha. This penniless monk has heard that many ghost messengers will stay in the bodies of living people. They are two souls in one body. Their own souls are used to work, while the souls of ordinary people are used for rest and eating.”

“That is just one’s own soul and the soul of an ordinary person’s host.”

“Since he has already been poisoned, what’s the big deal even if he swapped out the host’s soul after he fell into a deep sleep?” Are we afraid of him? That’s a joke.”
