Chapter 133: Revealing the Secret

This was a very chaotic scene, and it made Zhou Ze a little helpless. The villagers ignored the food and swarmed towards Zhou Ze again.

Zhou Ze’s nails tore the villagers apart time and time again, but they would quickly gather again. This was an endless massacre, a typical case of ants biting an elephant to death.

There had to be something supporting this place, causing this place to become like the cycle of the barrier. These Specters did not look as powerful as real Specters, but the scariest thing about them was that they could reform after death.

Little Monkey grabbed Zhou Ze’s shoulder and watched as he charged out. It wanted to help, but it could not. If it was in the past, if it cooperated with Zhou Ze, one demon and one ghost, it could have charged out. But now, it could only tremble and pray that Zhou Ze would not be exhausted so quickly.

It knew that if Zhou Ze was done for, it would definitely be done for as well.

In its previous life, it had already been eaten by someone. Was it going to be eaten by a ghost again in this life?

It did not want such a grand slam.

These villagers seemed to have planned to block Zhou Ze’s way out of the ancestral hall. All of them rushed forward fearlessly just to stop Zhou Ze for a few seconds. They had indeed succeeded. Zhou Ze was not far from the entrance of the ancestral hall. As long as they could rush out, it would be much easier to find a way to escape. Now, they could only be trapped in this narrow area. It was very uncomfortable.

Squeak squeak squeak!!!

The little monkey’s tail was grabbed by a villager. The little monkey let out a scream. It felt like it was going to be eaten.

Zhou Ze turned around, and his fingernails sent a wave of black fog to tear the villager apart. He grabbed the little monkey back, but this time, Zhou Ze was a little further away from the door.

The villagers continued to exert pressure on Zhou Ze, causing his breakthroughs to be in vain. Now, Zhou Ze was suppressed at the offering table in the deepest part of the ancestral hall.

“Hu… Hu… Hu…”

Zhou Ze was indeed tired from all the panting, but the villagers did not give him any chance to relax.

Splash!

There was a crisp sound.

Zhou Ze swept away all the tablets on the offering table. He hoped that the villagers could protect their ancestral tablets and leave an opening for himself.

However, it was a pity that the villagers did not feel anything for the ancestral tablets. No matter how the ancestral tablets fell to the ground, they remained unmoved and continued to charge towards Zhou Ze.

For the first time, Zhou Ze felt wronged.

Firstly, he really wanted to help someone. His conscience was hurting!

You must be hungry. I can tell, but rice and food are right in front of you. Are you not going to eat me?

Unreasonable!

Since you all are so unreasonable, don’t blame me for being unreasonable as well!

The anger in Zhou Ze’s heart was ignited. There was a limit to human kindness and compassion. Zhou Ze rushed over. This time, he did not take the initiative to run out. Instead, he killed the souls of the dead. At the same time, as the anger and frustration in his heart kept piling up, Zhou Ze’s skin slowly turned bronze.

Obviously, the attack of fatigue and anger was slowly awakening the other side of Zhou Ze.

Boom!

The two souls were caught by Zhou Ze and fell to the ground.

Boom!

The souls of the dead exploded, and no one knew where they would go to reunite. At the same time, another hole was smashed in the ground, and white rice started flying everywhere.

Suddenly, when Zhou Ze stood up, he was at a loss. That was because the villagers who had charged at him like crazy earlier had all squatted down and started to pick up the rice grains on the ground. They did not even let go of the rice grains in the gaps.

Then…

Previously the stage’s beloved spotlight converter—Ze

No one cared.

This was a huge difference.

Zhou Ze was at a loss. It could only be said that these villagers seemed to be sick. They were so hungry that they guarded the food in the ancestral hall and did not touch it.

Are all of them miseries?

Fortunately, Zhou Ze knew that this was not the time to be serious. He brought the little monkey and rushed out of the ancestral hall. This time, no one stopped him. After he ran back to the fields, the bronze luster on Zhou Ze’s body started to dim.

Zhou Ze also let out a long sigh of relief. If he could not enter that state, then he should not. The key was that after it ended, not only was his soul in pain, but the paralysis of his body and the inconvenience of living for a long time made Zhou Ze very resistant.

He grabbed the monkey that was still holding onto his shoulder and threw it to the ground.

“Find a way out.”

Zhou Ze did not want to waste time here until the villagers finished picking up the rice grains and then came to attack him.

The little monkey did not disappoint Zhou Ze. After running a few rounds, it buried itself in the pile of straw and disappeared.

This made Zhou Ze wonder if he had a monkey or a dog.

This was because the monkey was sniffing the ground.

Zhou Ze followed it around a few times, but he did not stick his nose to the ground like it and rushed into the pile of straw.

She felt her body lighten.

Zhou Ze realized that he had appeared on the street. At this time, all the shops on this street were basically closed. It was obviously very late.

The old Daoist priest squatted at the side and touched the monkey that had come out earlier. Seeing that Zhou Ze had also come out, he immediately stood up and asked,

“Boss, are you alright?”

Zhou Ze shook his head.

There was a Nissan parked opposite. Xu Qinglang was sitting inside. When Zhou Ze came out, he got out of the car and asked,

“Has the matter been resolved?”

“Where were you before? I couldn’t get through to you.”

“The signal in the basement is not good, right? Get in the car first. I’ve found some other clues.”

After getting into the car, Zhou Ze briefly explained what happened inside.

Xu Qinglang nodded and said, “I went to the city library first and checked the information. I found a local log from the Republic of China era. Actually, it’s not really the Republic of China anymore. Back then, this was the Japanese territory.

“It was a record book. It was recorded by the local government and was kept. It recorded the massacre in the village. According to the records, it was because the villagers had secretly hidden the injured Japanese soldiers who fought against the Japanese. That was why the Japanese came to seek revenge.”

“Get to the point,” Zhou Ze reminded.

“Then, I looked up the borrowing records of this book. It was a very obscure book. Normal people would not notice it, but in 2009, someone borrowed it. It was called Li Shi. I suspect that this person and the person who posted it were the same person.”

Zhou Ze nodded.

During that time, there were not many people who really paid attention to what happened in San Village.

“I looked into Li Shi and found out that he passed away from a heart attack at the end of 2009. However, the clues did not stop because when he had a heart attack, he was driving when the car hit a tree.

The place of death was on the road in the suburbs.

“That place is very barren. In 2009, it was very barren. Now, it’s also very barren. However, there is a sanatorium there. It’s similar to the old folks’ home, but on a higher level, it’s a public-private partnership.”

“So, you think Li Shi drove there before he died because he wanted to go to the sanatorium?”

“That’s right, so I think there should be a clue hidden at the sanatorium, and he discovered it. In fact, I think this person entered San Village for the second time. According to what you said, the villagers were so hungry that they wanted to eat humans, but in 2009, the problem should not have been that serious.

“Then, he obtained some information from the village, but other than you, everyone else who can enter the village is about to die.”

Xu Qinglang subconsciously looked at the old Daoist priest sitting in the back seat.

At first, the old Daoist priest felt very dispirited.

The monkey fell in.

The boss went in.

However, he could not get in, and he felt like a failure.

Then, when Xu Qinglang came to tell him that only those who were about to die had a chance to enter, the old Daoist priest laughed happily, and two mucus bubbles appeared on the tip of his nose.

“Li Shi did not manage to solve that problem, and he died in the middle of it.

Zhou Ze looked at Xu Qinglang chatting as he drove and asked, “So, are we going to the sanatorium now?”

Xu Qinglang nodded.

Half an hour later.

The car drove into the sanatorium. Because it was late at night, the sanatorium was already closed. However, Zhou Ze, Xu Qinglang, and the rest still jumped over the wall and entered the office to look at the client information of the sanatorium.

Extreme time required extreme measures. If they did not solve the problem at Sanxiang Village, if the real Specter came out, the problem would be very scary.

Zhou Ze, the Taoist priest, and Xu Qinglang were searching for him together. It was like searching for a needle in a haystack.

No one knew.

The person the OP was looking for nine years ago.

Was he already dead?

After all, most of the people who entered the sanatorium were old people or people with poor health. Nine years might not be enough.

Furthermore, there was no specific information to search for, so he could only rely on his eye contact.

This was no longer finding a needle in a haystack, but fishing in the sea.

However, the information on a patient made Zhou Ze’s eyes narrow. He signaled Xu Qinglang and the old Taoist priest to come over and pointed at the person in the photo.

“Chen Guangnong, born 1919.”

“F*ck, boss, this guy is 99 years old, right?” the old Daoist priest exclaimed. Then, he asked in confusion, “This… I can’t be looking for the oldest, right? I have a few hundred-year-olds here.”

Tongcheng was the home of longevity, and the number of hundred-year-olds ranked among the top in the country.

Zhou Ze shook his head and said, “This is different. I think I’ve heard of this person. He was an official in Tong City for a period of time a few years ago.”

Zhou Ze opened the webpage and started searching on it. Baidu Baike immediately found out that this was Chen Guangnong’s actual life.

“An uprising?” Xu Qinglang noticed something.

“According to the records, this person was a battalion commander during the war in Huaihai during the Liberation War. He led an uprising and participated in the anti-American reinforcement. Later, he returned to his hometown, Tongcheng, to be a district official for a period of time before retiring.”

“I think it should be this person. Li Shi should be looking for this person,” Zhou Ze said.

A legendary person had to have a legendary life worthy of him. This person’s life was already exciting enough.

Zhou Ze found his ward first. However, what shocked Zhou Ze, Xu Qinglang, and the old Taoist priest was that Chen Guangnong had been in a coma for a long time a few years ago. He was like a vegetable. Now, it was just that his body was not dead yet.

“F*ck, what’s going on?” The old Daoist priest was dumbfounded.

Zhou Ze opened the door of the ward and walked in. Xu Qinglang gestured for the old Daoist priest and Monkey to stand outside and watch the wind before he followed them in.

There was some pressure in the room. This old man who only needed one more year to achieve a hundred years of life, his life had truly reached its end.

He lay there unconscious.

You said he was alive, but it was no different from being dead.

Zhou Ze sat down on the chair next to the bed and looked at the various instruments beside the old man. The old man’s condition was not looking good.

“Is there a way to wake him up?” Xu Qinglang asked.

He knew that Zhou Ze used to be a doctor.

Zhou Ze shook his head. If only the person from Chengdu hadn’t been taken away by Tang Shi. It might have been more convenient to invite him over. It was said that the guy was a psychiatrist and had terrifying hypnotic skills. He could even hypnotize and control ghosts.

“There seems to be only one way left now,” Zhou Ze said.

“What is it?”

“Kill him now and interrogate his soul.”

“…” Xu Qinglang.

Zhou Ze shook his head, indicating that he was just joking. It was not easy for her to live to 99. He could not kill her just because he wanted to ask her a few questions.

Furthermore, looking at the man’s state, his life was full of ups and downs. He had been lying here for so many years, so he had probably gotten over everything. If he killed him, his soul might go straight to hell, and he would not even be able to ask.

“There’s a book in the drawer.”

Xu Qinglang opened the drawer and said.

“What book?”

“Autobiography. It was probably created by someone or someone else. It was published on its own.”

Xu Qinglang took out a book and flipped through it.

“Look at the early life,” Zhou Ze reminded.

“I know.”

Soon, Xu Qinglang found a record and said, “Before the war, he was a company commander at Tong City’s security team.”

The security team, which was a local armed force, was similar to the ones in the war-resistance dramas.

“When the Japanese invaded Tong City, did they encounter resistance?” Zhou Ze asked.

“I’ve checked. The Japanese Yazu unit seems to be the 101th Regiment. I’m not too sure about the details, but it’s said that after 100 years, the Japanese Regiment will not have much combat power. This Regiment seems to have been beaten up quite badly in Jiangxi.”

“However, at that time, Tongcheng did not have a proper Chinese army. It was completely resisted by the local armed organizations in Tongcheng City and fought against the Japanese. However, no matter how rookie the newbie Regiment was, they were still much stronger than the local armed security forces. Therefore, Tongcheng fell rather quickly.”

“So, he participated in Tongcheng’s resistance against the Japanese army?”

“That should be the case. He shouldn’t have surrendered as a traitor. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have become a battalion commander in the national army.”

Zhou Ze frowned.

The old man with age spots and all the villagers from Sanxiang Village gave him a feeling of powerlessness. He had the strength, but he could only use his fists to hit cotton.

He had been talking to Xu Qinglang for so long, but the old man had only closed his eyes and had no reaction. He had clearly lost consciousness.

However, Zhou Ze was unwilling to leave just like that. Therefore, Zhou Ze bent down and whispered into the old man’s ear.

“Sir, do you still remember… San Xiang Village?”

Suddenly…

A miracle happened.

The old man’s fingers suddenly trembled.

Then his eyelids began to tremble.

He seemed to have heard it, or perhaps he was agitated. His lips parted slightly like he was making a very small sound.

“Our… relatives…”

“What did he say?” Xu Qinglang asked.

Zhou Ze shook his head. His voice was too soft.

Xu Qinglang pushed Zhou Ze away and placed his ear near the old man’s mouth to listen carefully.

After a while, Xu Qinglang stood up straight with a serious expression.

“What did he say?” Zhou Ze asked.

“He said… he wants to kiss you?”
