Midnight Bookstore

The main material of this armor was bamboo, leather, and a part of metal. The entire body was black, and the craftsmanship was exquisite, making it pleasing to the eye.

In fact, compared to the armor of other countries at the same time, the Japanese samurai armor was not the best in terms of defense or practicality, because for a long time, the Japanese people were playing the “Warring States era”of the village chief level on their own islands behind closed doors.

But aside from a series of shortcomings,

the key was that it looked good.

Even at this time, when Zhou Ze looked in the mirror at his current appearance of being wrapped in armor, he did not have the slightest discomfort and anger when this thing suddenly appeared on his body, instead, he felt that the armor was not only useful and protective, but when it suddenly appeared in a fight, he felt that he was very “Cool”

If there was an old priest next to him and a classical BGM, the effect would be even better.

Perhaps it was due to the influence of modern Japanese cultural products, at least for Zhou Ze, he really did not hate the armor.

Zhou ze still remembered that when he was a child in the orphanage, after dinner, a large group of children would gather in the living room where there was only one television set in the whole school. Everyone would sit on a small stool and wait to watch cartoons.

At that time, video recorders and later vcds and dvds were not popular, so basically everyone watched whatever was played on the television.

There was a period of time when a Japanese anime, “Devil’s altar fighter,”was popular on the entire mainland and caused a huge craze, even with the current perspective, this anime still did not feel outdated in terms of the design of the armor and the use of some second-rate BGM.

Reaching Out,

lifting his leg,

twisting his waist,

even though his body was a little weak now, Zhou Ze still insisted on posing a few poss in front of the mirror, giving off the feeling of an old man talking about crazy teenagers.

When he had enough fun, Zhou Ze closed his eyes and the armor quickly disappeared. He let out a long sigh and sat back down. His body was already drenched in sweat.

Bai Yingying also brought the shower gel and walked back into the bathroom. When she saw that Zhou Ze was sweating again, she did not understand and could only help him wash again.

Enjoying the service of his maid, boss Zhou changed into clean clothes after the shower and was supported by Bai Yingying to sit on his favorite sofa.

On the coffee table in front of him was a plate of candy, coffee, and newspapers.

A leisurely afternoon should be wasted.

Boss Zhou quickly took on the role of a salted fish again. Perhaps this was his nature. Moreover, after the last incident, Zhou Ze began to develop an instinctive rejection of any activity that required him to leave the study room.

His personality was a little selfish. He had a kind of self-indulgent salted fish, even if there was a flood after he died of saltiness.

At this time, the old priest returned. He was sweating profusely. When he saw Zhou Ze leaning against the sofa and reading the newspaper, the old priest chuckled excitedly. He immediately brought a bottle of cold beer over and said,

“Boss, when I get home, it feels so good to see you sitting here reading the newspaper as usual.”

What the old priest meant was..,

it was like a husband who had worked hard for a whole day coming home and seeing his aunt-in-law nursing the child. He didn’t feel tired at all.

In short, it sounded weird.

Zhou ze glanced at the old priest and saw that he was full of energy and his steps were robust. He suddenly felt a little envious of this guy. After that incident, even if the old priest had Bai Yingying’s corpse elixir to prolong his life, it was only to ensure that he would not die, he did not expect the old priest’s vitality to be so tenacious. It had only been a short while and he had already recovered.

A 70-year-old old man had such terrifying vitality. Moreover, he was able to stand tall in the morning and his mind was constantly thinking about those trivial things. It really made people envious.

“How is your body?”Zhou ze asked.

No matter what, he still had to care about it. Even if Zhou Ze thought that the old priest would have no problem ordering a dragon and two phoenixes to play for an entire night.

“It’s pretty good. I feel stronger than before.”The old priest patted his chest and sat down next to Zhou Ze. Then, he reached out his hand and quietly pointed at the busy oriole behind him. He whispered,

“Boss, can you solve the matter with Oriole?”

“I’ll solve it when I recover.”

“That’s good. She’s a pretty girl.”The old priest smacked his lips and went to the bathroom. Then, he walked out and turned on the Big TV, casually changing the channel.

“Yo, boss, there’s a game today. Do you want to watch it?”

“Not interested.”Zhou Ze was not a fan.

“Tongcheng Zhiyun’s game seems to be played by a Chinese Super League team, the FA Cup.

A Chinese second division team playing a Chinese Super League team. That’s very rare. Let me take a look.”

The old man was not actually a fan, but he was somewhat fated with the team. When he traveled around in the early years, he had been invited to perform rituals at the home grounds of many teams’clubs. The intention was to give the home ground a light and change the luck of the team.

It was probably because those teams were a little unlucky. Their home field shots were always at the center of the goalposts or they were unlucky in all sorts of ways. Anyway, Old Priest was just a blind cat that met a dead mouse, or it was because the players felt that their home grounds had been opened and they had received a boost in their mental state that was different. Their home ground results had improved all of a sudden, and old priest had become very popular because of this. After he had made a name for himself, he had been invited by a few football clubs to perform rituals.

There were not many Chinese people who were really superstitious. Although the temple was full of incense, everyone just wanted to have a good time. When they entered the temple, they would pay their respects. In the spirit of casting a wide net, and this was actually not superstition. Before the construction of the building, before the movie and TV series started, in fact, they would put an incense on the table to seek luck.

However, the old priest had gone too far in the past few years. There was a butterfly effect. If you invited a Taoist priest, I would invite a dancing god or a monk. In short, when you finished singing, I would go on stage. All the gods would come together to bless, it fully brought into play the local cultural industry characteristics of the clubs in various places. It was very lively.

However, this was captured by the fans and spread online. The fans themselves only ridiculed it, but it was noticed by the higher-ups. The Football Association immediately issued a document prohibiting the clubs from doing such things again.

Because of this, the old priest also cut off this source of income. He could only switch to the live broadcast industry. This was a topic for another time.

..

Xu Qinglang did not drive back to his hometown. Instead, he took a ride back and forth. When he was done with his business in his hometown, he took a ride back. On the way back, he saw that the driver seemed to be secretly sizing him up.

Alright..,

he was already somewhat used to this kind of sizing up of Xu Qinglang. He was also somewhat immune to it. He was also clear about his own appearance and temperament. There was nothing he could do about it.

However, the driver seemed to be a little off. He took out his phone from time to time to take a look and then deliberately looked at himself again from the rearview mirror. In the end, the driver could not help but ask,

“Are you a cross-dressing boss?”

Xu Qinglang did not understand what he meant.

The driver shook his head and looked at the phone screen again. He asked, “Are you a man or a woman?”

“A man.”

Xu Qinglang pointed at the driver again and asked, “What are you looking at?”

“Oh, nothing.”

“Tell me, what are you looking at?”Xu Qinglang said firmly.

Not to mention the domineering aura of having more than 20 sets..,

just to say that he had seen the kind of temperament that had been refined by experience for a long time..,

when Xu Qinglang spoke now, he seemed to carry a sense of oppression like a martial emperor.

The driver might be young, and he did not seem like a wily old fox. In his nervousness, he pointed directly at the screen and said,

“We have the driver’s evaluation here, but the passengers can’t see it

“I saw the evaluation here saying that you’re very beautiful, and some people are guessing whether you’re a man or a woman. I took your order earlier because I saw this evaluation, so I was interested in taking the order immediately, “Actually, your route is quite different from mine.”

“Boring.”

Xu Qinglang shook his head in disdain and closed his eyes.

About twenty minutes later, the car arrived at the entrance of the bookstore. Xu Qinglang got out of the car and saw that there were actually quite a number of people in the bookstore. Moreover, they were living people.

She pushed the door open and walked in. Xu Qinglang saw Zhou Ze sitting at the bar counter.

“You’re awake.”Xu Qinglang greeted him.

“Yeah.”Zhou ze nodded.

“Why is it so lively?”Xu Qinglang asked.

Zhou Ze pointed at the big TV screen and said, “At first, it was a veteran watching the game. Then, many passers-by saw it through the glass window and came in to watch it together.”

“Spending 100 yuan just to come in and watch a game?”Xu Qinglang could not understand.

In fact, Tongcheng had not had a professional team for a long time. However, since they had one two years ago, many fans had gathered. Even if it was a match in the second division, nearly 10,000 people would go to watch the match live each time, the popularity had already surpassed some of the Super League’s teams.

“F * ck, they’re 2-0 behind. F * ck, I’m not going to watch anymore!”

A middle-aged man with many tattoos cursed and shouted. In the end, he reluctantly went to the bar to settle the bill.

“This is a scam. I only asked for two bottles of sprite, and you charged me 100 yuan. The key is that I’m two goals behind in the first half. I’m really spending money to make myself suffer.”

The Tattooed Man Thought for a moment and took back the 100 yuan that he was about to release. He said to Zhou Ze,

“Boss, do you have the nerve to charge me? I also work here. My nickname is Brother Qiang. In the future, if you have any problems, just let me know…”

“I won’t accept it,”Zhou Ze replied.

The tattooed man chuckled and pointed at Zhou Ze, indicating that he knew his place. In fact, a person who could open a shop on south street was no longer someone that this kind of weak-looking hooligan could criticize.

The Tattooed Man took out a cigarette, bit it in his mouth, lit it, and elegantly pushed open the bookstore door and walked out.

“You don’t know life from death,”Xu Qinglang mocked from the side.

He understood why Zhou Ze would suddenly be kind enough not to take his money. He was definitely not under any threat.

What a joke..,

a ghost was threatened by a local scoundrel from the world of the living. Would he still be able to survive?

In addition to boss Zhou’s iron-like grandet character, would he have a problem with money?

Xu Qinglang could tell that the tattooed hooligan’s temple was black and there was a bit of black air surrounding his body. It was obvious that he had recently recruited some dirty things. If there wasn’t someone with the ability to help him solve the disaster, he would be seriously ill at worst, at worst, he might get into a car accident on the road.

If he didn’t accept the money from a person who was about to die, then so be it. Maybe in a few days, he would still have to come to the bookstore. If he couldn’t accept the money when he was alive, then he would accept it when he was dead. Anyway, boss Zhou was sitting firmly on the fishing platform.

Zhou ze silently lit a cigarette.

The outside of the bookstore was made of glass, so the tattooed man could be clearly seen walking out from inside.

The Tattooed Man took a big puff of the cigarette and walked out. Just as he was about to spit it out,

a pregnant woman walked past him.

The Tattooed Man looked at the woman’s Big Belly and immediately held back the puff of the cigarette. Anyone who smoked knew how sour it was to swallow a puff of the cigarette. It was like swallowing half a mouthful of mustard.

After the pregnant woman left..,

the tattooed man bent over and kept retching on the ground.

Boss Zhou blew out a smoke ring. Xu Qinglang, who was beside him, also saw this scene.

“Go and help him crack it,”said Zhou Ze.

Xu Qinglang nodded.
