Chapter 225: The Sorrow of An Honest Man

“Gulp… gulp…”

Zhou ze remembered that he had sunk into the water several times, but at that time, he was either in hell or in a dream, especially when he passed by the pool where he met the Faceless Woman.

But this time was different. The suffocation and sense of crisis this time was so strong. From the moment he was pulled down, he knew that his life had begun to count down.

He did not regret running to save Tang Shi at that time. Even though the two of them had quarreled just now, boss Zhou did not like Tang Shi’s bad temper. It was as if he did not like any other man in the world except for that “Blind man”.

However, no matter what, Tang Shi had come from Shanghai to help him. It would be unkind of him to just stand by and watch.

At that time, he didn’t think too much, just like when he was in the burning movie theater. He didn’t think too much and went straight to the fire to save her.

Most importantly, although Tang Shi sometimes looked very strong, her body was a big weakness. Once she was close to her, it would be difficult for her to do anything. At least he still had a chance to fight.

“Gulp… gulp…”

Bubbles kept popping out of her mouth and nose, and the air in her lungs started to become less and less.

However, the body that was only left with half a face was still holding on to her tightly. The vines that were formed from the grass stalk kept crossing and weaving, perfecting the other half of the face.

The left side of the face was still calm, but the right side of the green face had a clear malevolence, as if it carried a monstrous resentment. It did not look like a person at all, but more like a manifestation of another ideology.

The other party seemed to hate me, hate that I did not let him capture Cheng Tang Shi?

What was his purpose for wanting to capture Tang Shi?

“PFFT…”

The other party continued to press down on him. In fact, it did not seem to be very deep. From the cave entrance to the bottom, it was only about ten meters deep. However, below, Zhou Ze saw an old tree root entrenched there. The tree root was not as big as he had imagined, on the contrary, it appeared very “Slim”, but it also looked exceptionally exquisite. A face that resembled a man and a woman kept twisting in the middle of the tree root.

On this face, Zhou Ze saw a face full of resentment.

This kind of feeling was very difficult to describe. It was like a young man who had given him a large amount of strong aphrodisiac, tied his hands and feet, and then forced him to watch adult action movies. Every second was an intense torment, moreover, this fellow had probably been tormented for quite a number of years.

“Bang!”

Zhou Ze was pressed to the side of the tree root. The face on the tree root looked at Zhou Ze. At first, that face was filled with anger and disdain, but slowly, new emotions appeared on that face.

Shock,

fear,

fear,

then confusion,

finally,

it turned into ecstasy!

The Sichuan dramatic face change was famous throughout the world, but the expression of this tree root was even more vivid than the face change.

“It’s… you…”

A voice actually came from within the tree root. God knows how this voice was transmitted in the water, but Zhou Ze could actually hear it. It was just a little unclear and noisy.

You recognized me?

Zhou ze thought to himself.

Then, Zhou Ze felt a little embarrassed,

indeed, he was embarrassed,

look,

he even recognized me,

but I don’t know myself.

“BZZZ BZZZ…”

The vine of the tree root began to tremble with excitement. Obviously, it didn’t recognize Zhou Ze at first, so it chose to capture Tang Shi first. As for its purpose in capturing Tang Shi, Zhou Ze seemed to have guessed it. It wanted to move its nest!

It was trapped here,

even though its vine had controlled the soul-less body, for some unknown reason, it was still firmly pinned here. It wanted to capture Tang Shi probably because after controlling Tang Shi, it had a chance to help it escape.

But now, Zhou Ze could feel that this tree root had already lost its rationality. In most of the movies and literature works, the tree spirit appeared to be very calm and wise, basically meeting people in the image of an old grandpa, however, this fellow in front of Zhou Ze seemed to be high on drugs, as he started to break dance.

“You… Die…”

That voice came again,

it was gloomy and vicious!

At the same time, the broken body started to tear at his body even more crazily. This time, he was serious!

A strong sense of danger came,

previously, the other party might have saved his strength to drag him underwater to drown and let him fend for himself,

now, the other party wanted to kill him with his own hands to experience the pleasure of revenge.

Zhou Ze was actually waiting and watching. After all, unless it was really necessary, boss Zhou really didn’t want to enter a zombie state. This meant that he would have to lie down for another half a month after he went back.

But this time, there was no other way. Looking at the guy who was almost touching his face, Zhou Ze opened his mouth and two fangs rapidly grew out. At the same time, his body began to dehydrate rapidly and become shriveled. The depths of his eyes were covered by a green light, his temperament had also completely changed, becoming crazy and willful!

“Roar!”

“Roar!”

The two of them opened their mouths at the same time and let out roars. They were like tigers that had been provoked and were declaring their own dignity!

If the scene was frozen here and observed carefully, one could even find that there was a great similarity in the expressions of the two people when they roared.

“Boom! Boom! Boom! ! ! ! ! !”

A series of terrifying explosive sounds came from below,

zhou Ze was like a hungry wolf that had gone mad as he desperately tore at the broken but extremely tough body in front of him. It could be seen that Zhou Ze had the absolute advantage.

After all..,

the broken body in front of him was no longer the one that had slaughtered everyone eighty years ago. One was just a shell, and it was a broken shell. and Zhou Ze had the inner core of the past!

The body was kicked away, and countless vines suddenly swept over. They were as thin as hair and began to wrap around Zhou Ze’s body.

Bang

Zhou Ze’s body trembled,

the tree root also trembled,

but it still restrained Zhou Ze.

The body that had just been kicked away by Zhou Ze rushed back again. It opened its mouth and directly bit Zhou Ze’s neck. He lay on Zhou Ze’s body, looking extremely crazy.

“You… Die…”

The tree root trembled in excitement.

This scene excited him even more than its own escape. In fact, it was even willing to use its own escape in exchange for the complete destruction of that person’s soul!

This person..,

had deceived him back then,

it had caused him to miss the opportunity to transform, causing him to be trapped in this place and could only stay in this place.

This hatred..,

it was higher than the sky and deeper than the sea!

“Fate… Retribution…”

The other party smiled sinisterly.

Zhou Ze’s body was trembling non-stop, as if he was trying to resist. However, the thin vines on his body seemed to be the most terrifying chains in the world, firmly locking Zhou Ze’s body.

The tree roots were using their own strength..,

controlling Zhou Ze and suppressing him.

This was the first time Zhou Ze had encountered a situation where he was being suppressed ever since he was able to activate peerless. In the past, he would kill anyone who stood in his way.

Of course, the current Zhou Ze had completely lost the ability to think. All that was left in his mind was that “Crazy”emotion.

This stalemate lasted for about ten minutes

The tree root began to wither. It was obvious that it was exhausted, but the weakening of Zhou Ze’s aura was even more obvious.

The last time at General Mountain, because he had been in a zombie state for a long time, his body had almost collapsed. Therefore, the time that Zhou Ze had been in a zombie state was really very, very short. He could not maintain it for too long.

The muscles on Zhou Ze’s neck had originally been completely contracted, but now they had also relaxed. The fangs of the incomplete body directly tore a piece of flesh on Zhou Ze’s neck.

“Pu…”

Fresh blood began to spread,

a large hole appeared on Zhou Ze’s neck, and only a little bit of flesh was still attached to his head.

The green light in his eyes slowly dimmed,

the resistance on his body was also becoming weaker and weaker.

The tree root became even more excited. It even let the mutilated body leave Zhou Ze and instead used its dense vines to wrap Zhou Ze’s body over.

It couldn’t move,

but it wanted to enjoy the final scene of its enemy’s death!

This was the happiest moment in its sixty-year-old life!

Besides the wound on its neck, Zhou Ze’s other body parts began to bleed. Every time he entered the zombie state, his body would crack under the pressure and his skin would be torn open.

This time..,

was no exception.

“Hehe… Retribution… fate… divine retribution…”

The tree root could only say two words each time. At this moment, it was constantly venting its anger and gloating.

What a wonderful thing..,

the culprit who trapped him in this place for a sixty-year-old period of time..,

had actually been delivered to him sixty years later..,

and he had become so weak!

This was the will of the heavens..,

this was the opening of the eyes of the heavens!

As a demon who had the opportunity to transform, he had been tricked too miserably by that fellow.

His broken body floated to the side, not moving at all. His former body was now under the control of the tree roots, becoming the most loyal puppet and fighter.

“Karma… Destiny… one… Sixty…”

Roots looked at floating in front of their own, vital signs are getting weaker and weaker Zhou Ze, non-stop waving their vines, singing and dancing.

It wants to look at him quietly,

looking at him up close,

watching him die,

i can see him dead!

However,

at this moment..,

zhou Ze’s eyes, which had already dimmed, suddenly emitted a piercing green light,

previously..,

a large chunk of flesh had been bitten off of Zhou Ze’s neck by that mutilated body. Now, only a little bit of flesh was left connected to his neck. However, at this moment, he was able to successfully swing his head about 200-300 degrees, he directly rammed into the face of the tree root.

Two sharp fangs stabbed into the face of the tree root,

the bark of the tree root was flipped over,

he opened his mouth,

he swallowed the green fruit that was glowing inside and slowly chewed on it,

“Crunch… Crunch…”

It was very crisp!

The body of the tree root began to twitch,

it could not believe what was happening before its eyes.

“I’ve waited for you… for 60 years… you’re finally… ripe…”

Zhou ze chewed on the food in his mouth and said slowly in a hoarse voice,

“And..

Sixty years..

You’re still so..

Gullible.”
