I open a restaurant in Mysterious Recovery

Chapter 302 Endless Nightmare
According to Lin Yuan's request, Yang Jian took the two human heads from Guo Fan and prepared to install the "robot" himself.

But when the human head was in his hands, the robot head that was 70% similar to him began to decay, and the metallic luster gradually faded, as if countless years had been condensed together and began to oxidize rapidly.

In just a short while, it was already covered with rust.

"What's happening here?"

Yang Jian's heart shuddered and he instinctively felt a little uneasy, as if something important was about to leave him, making him uneasy.

"Could this head be my father's? Or a ghost that he controlled before he died? If it is a ghost, why is it decaying so quickly? Is it because the spiritual power that supports its existence has begun to dissipate and it can no longer maintain the state it was in when it died?"

Due to the intervention of the "store manager", Yang Jian had no chance to figure out everything in the ghost dream, nor did he meet the "Yang Xiao" in the dream, and had no idea what had happened.

And when he was uneasy, the decay of the head stopped, as if it was stopped by some force.

"It's time to take action."

Although he didn't know what was going on, the inexplicable feeling in his heart made him no longer hesitate. He first put down the two heads, and then took out the other body parts.

A pair of pale dead legs and half a body.

Of course, due to the existence of the "store manager", they are now just robot body parts in the eyes of everyone and do not look so scary.

"The eyes of this head are open!" Guo Fan exclaimed.

Yang Jian looked over quickly and saw that the eyes of the other head were open. The glass eyeballs were dark and bright, without any emotion, and seemed a little dull.

A cold breath surged out from the head and the rest of the body, and even created a breeze.

Yes, the breath of a ghost!

Lin Yuan, however, acted as if nothing had happened and came over curiously. "It is indeed open. Is there still a battery inside? Xiao Yang, don't just stand there. Hurry up. I'll check to see if there is any battery."

As he said this, he picked up the head and turned it over and over in his hands, occasionally scratching a certain part to make sure there were no gaps or anything.

Such a scene made Yang Jian, Li Jun, Ah Hong and Guo Fan, who had just been alert, feel speechless and even a little absurd.

It was clearly an extremely terrifying ghost, but in the hands of the "store manager", it turned into a robot toy?

Even the cold and strange wind from before had dissipated, apparently having been suppressed to the extreme by the "store manager".

"It is indeed a happy thing to deal with supernatural incidents with the store manager. Perhaps, I really shouldn't have listened to the human skin paper. I should go to the Peace Hotel more often in the future..."

As Yang Jian thought so in his mind, his hands moved faster.

Soon, the legs and broken body parts were connected together. Yang Jian did not make any special movements, but when Yang Jian put them together, they were connected very fitly, without any wounds or gaps, as if they had never been separated and were a whole.

Yang Jian glanced at Lin Yuan. Lin Yuan was still looking for the so-called battery and had no intention of returning it.

Yang Jian didn't think much about it and directly put the other half-rotten head on the neck of the corpse. Just like before, the two were quickly connected together seamlessly.

The next moment, the tightly closed eyes of the head opened.

Confusion, bewilderment, and uneasiness, countless complex emotions blossomed in these eyes, and finally all returned to calm, and it sat up and looked around.

At first glance, he saw Yang Jian standing in front of him with a vigilant look on his face, "Yang Jian?"

"who are you?"

Yang Jian asked in a deep voice. He originally thought that it was a resurrected evil spirit, but he did not expect that there would be a reawakened consciousness. Moreover, this person looked almost exactly like his father, which made him have an unrealistic guess in his mind.

Moreover, what do robots represent in the eyes of the “store manager”?
The identity of the robot in front of us doesn’t seem to be that difficult to guess.

"You've guessed it, haven't you? I just didn't expect that I could come back to reality. You shouldn't... huh? Why did this body turn into a robot?"

Gui Meng Yang Xiao seemed a little slow and only now finally discovered the biggest abnormality.

The white fog surrounding them, as well as Li Jun, Ah Hong, Guo Fan, and Lin Yuan who was "playing" with another robot head?

Looking at Lin Yuan, Gui Meng Yang Xiao's pupils suddenly shrank.

"Is that so? He is the helper you found?"

The scene in the dream was still vivid in his mind, and Gui Meng Yang Xiao subconsciously wanted to escape. However, when Lin Yuan's eyes looked at him, he felt unprecedented pressure, and his already inconvenient body completely lost the ability to move.

“Can it move without electricity?”

Lin Yuan looked at the robot head in his hand with a look of surprise, then looked at the robot Yang Xiao who was half sitting up, and came closer with curiosity, "How did it move? I searched for the battery for a long time but couldn't find it. By the way, you were talking just now, right?"

Robot Yang Xiao kept silent.

He discovered a big problem, that is, the Lin Yuan in front of him seemed to be very different from the Lin Yuan he met in his dream before.

Although the two looked exactly the same, a huge difference between them was revealed in just a few words.

Lin Yuan in the dream seemed to know all the secrets, even the plan that he had been planning for many years and had not told even his closest relatives.

However, Lin Yuan in front of him seemed to know nothing and did not even acknowledge the existence of ghosts.

However, what is certain is that Lin Yuan in front of him is equally terrifying, otherwise the state of him and the ghost would not be so weird, and he could even change his body shape from a corpse into a robot.

What method is this?
The robot Yang Xiao was not clear, let alone understood, and he had a feeling that as long as he spoke any information related to ghosts, he would encounter unknown and terrifying supernatural attacks.

Is there an unknown existence watching in the dark?

Is it the real Lin Yuan?
Yang Xiao was indeed the most gifted ghost rider of the previous era, but it was a pity that he died halfway through his career. A genius who did not grow up was nothing.

Facing such a powerful spiritual being like Lin Yuan, his talent was not a good thing.

A feeling suddenly arose in his heart:
"I... am being targeted!"

Lin Yuan asked in confusion: "Is the battery out? I just saw you two chatting, Xiao Yang, can you tell me what's going on?"

Yang Jian glanced at the robot Yang Xiao, shook his head and said, "I'm not too sure, maybe it really is out of power."

"Is that so? Let's try this head. I think the battery of this robot should be in the head, otherwise it wouldn't have to be installed in order to move. But I don't know where the battery is. Is it solar-powered?"

Lin Yuan handed over Gui Meng's head and gave his analysis.

Yang Jian still had a lot of questions he wanted to ask the robot Yang Xiao, but he obviously had no chance to refute the "store manager" and could only do what Lin Yuan said.

When the robot Yang Xiao's head was removed, the head closed its eyes. Fortunately, it did not continue to rust, otherwise it would have turned into a piece of scrap metal in a while.

When the evil spirit's robot head was installed, the robot with strange facial features suddenly bounced up from the ground, its body straight and stiff, and its closed eyes suddenly opened.

Different from the simple and dull before.

At this moment, a strange look appeared in its eyes, and it turned slightly, looking at everyone present.

"The evil ghost has revived?"

Yang Jian's face changed drastically and he stepped back quickly, but it was obviously too late.

A deep sleepiness came over me, and at the same time, a voice that seemed strange, yet familiar, came from behind me: "Yang Jian~ Yang Jian~"

Yang Jian subconsciously turned his head, and what appeared before his eyes was no longer the scene in the temple, but a forest, which was the second place where they went to hunt for treasure.

Yang Jian's expression suddenly turned very ugly, "Is it the dream again?"

"Yes, we have been dragged in again. That robot, or that alien, is the source of this supernatural incident. It should be your father's ghost, right?"

Li Jun's voice came from behind.

Yang Jian turned around and found that Li Jun, Guo Fan and Ah Hong all appeared beside him. It was obvious that they were also pulled into this dream.

Yang Jian asked, "It's highly likely, but I'm not very clear about the specific situation. Now I only have one question. We are all by the store manager's side, so why can that ghost use supernatural powers?"

"There are two possibilities. One is that this ghost is scarier than the store manager..."

"This is absolutely impossible!"

Li Jun's analysis was not finished when he was interrupted by Guo Fan, "If that ghost is really that scary, it would not be confined to this small Meishan Village."

"Your analysis is not wrong, but the problem now is that the ghost used its supernatural power right under the store manager's nose, which means it is indeed very scary. Or is it that the ghost took advantage of the store manager in some way? It makes people fall into dreams, and we don't have supernatural powers in dreams. It targets personal consciousness. In other words, the store manager's supernatural power in consciousness is a shortcoming?"

As Li Jun spoke, his eyes became a little strange.

It turns out that the “store manager” also has shortcomings, in terms of awareness?

For a moment, the thoughts of the people present became complicated. Yang Jian suddenly said, "If it was two days ago, I would definitely have the same idea as you. But now, besides the store manager, there is another person with complete consciousness. Is it possible that He did it on purpose?"

"This seems to make sense."

As they were discussing, they suddenly felt a chill in their hearts and subconsciously looked towards the depths of the woods, where they saw a man with a wound on the back of his hand standing there stiffly and numbly, motionless, staring at them, with a sharp knife in his hand, as if he was going to approach and attack the people in the house.

ghost!
The ghost is coming!
"In dreams, ghosts are just ordinary people. There are four of us, and we can kill it by piling up." Yang Jian said in a deep voice, his eyes were not afraid, but full of eagerness to try. Li Jun nodded, but Ah Hong stood in front of him, "You are physically disabled, the three of us can do it."

In the dream, Li Jun had no ghost skin, only muscle fibers were left.

As a special forces captain, or perhaps partly because he was dreaming, Li Jun was able to endure the pain of exposing his muscles to the air. But if he really had to do it, the effect would probably not be very good.

Li Jun looked at the man in the distance, shook his head and said, "If it's just an ordinary person, then my fighting power is the strongest. And the time I can last in a dream is very short, so we need to fight quickly. I will fight the main force later, and you will assist me, and try to take it down as soon as possible!"

Yang Jian said: "Li Jun is right. We need to move faster, otherwise it will leave the village and the market again and hide in the crowd. It will be difficult to find it."

While speaking, he glanced outside the woods.

There was nothing outside the woods, wrapped in endless white fog, and he couldn't see the way out, which made him doubt.

Does the “store manager” really have a flaw in consciousness?
So is this white fog outside the ghost of the "store manager"?
"Hurry up and don't waste time."

Guo Fan held his stomach with his hands, his face looked a little ugly, and his hands were pressed on his stomach, as if he was enduring the pain.

They are all ghost handlers in the supernatural circle who have experienced many supernatural events. Now that they have made a decision, they will not hesitate any longer.

The four of them quickly ran towards the ghost.

Li Jun rushed to the front as the spearhead, and he also slowed down a little, otherwise with his strength as a special operations team leader, none of Yang Jian, Guo Fan and Ah Hong would be able to keep up with him.

"It's running! Almost..."

The ghost standing deep in the woods rushed in another direction, as if he knew that Li Jun could not hold on, so he was preparing to escape and buy time.

Li Jun naturally would not allow this to happen, and he stopped suddenly just as he was about to speed up.

Because a dog rushed out from the depths of the woods, a huge black wolfdog, with strange eyes, but staring at the direction where the ghost escaped.

It also saw Li Jun and his companions, but did not stop. It quickly chased the ghost and disappeared into the depths of the woods.

"What is going on? How could there be a dog... a dog? I remember digging up a lot of dog skeletons under the cabin in the woods. Could it be that those dogs turned into ghosts and came to chase the ghost in my dream?"

"That's an interesting guess. Unfortunately, ghosts are not what living beings become after death. Don't you even know that?"

During the argument, the sound of wolfhounds biting and roaring could be heard from the dim woods.

"The sky has changed..."

As the sounds of biting and roaring in the woods gradually faded away, the dim woods suddenly lit up. No light source could be found, but it just lit up inexplicably.

But the light soon dimmed again, and as the light dimmed, the ghost figure appeared again not far away from them.

He still held the knife in his hand, as if nothing had changed.

The next moment, the ghost ran away again, but not towards the depths of the woods, but towards Li Jun and others. At the same time, from deeper inside, a big wolfhound rushed over again.

Li Jun said: "This ghost is very smart. He actually knows how to drag us into the battle? Retreat!"

"clear."

Yang Jian and Guo Fan turned around and ran away without any hesitation. They wanted to keep some distance between themselves and the ghost and let the dog catch up with it.

Ah Hong walked a little slower. She said to Li Jun who was standing still: "Be careful."

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

Li Jun nodded, his eyes fixed on the ghost rushing towards him. The ghost did not hesitate, and when he was about two meters away, he stabbed at him with the sharp knife in his hand.

"If it were in reality, I would still be afraid of you. Now that I can't use my supernatural powers, you dare to attack me? Die!"

Li Jun roared, stepped forward with his right foot, slightly tilted his body to avoid the sharp knife, then rushed into the ghost's arms and lowered his shoulders.

boom!
With a muffled sound, the ghost flew backwards as if it had suffered a heavy blow and landed directly on the head of the big wolfdog.

The big wolf dog barked excitedly, then bit the ghost.

Li Jun's face was ferocious. He didn't dare to stay where he was. He endured the pain in his muscles, turned around and chased after Ah Hong and the others.

They didn't get far because there was no road.

Several people came to the edge of the woods. Outside was a thick white fog. As soon as they got close, they could smell a strong warning sign:

If you go in, you will die!
This place was not far from the big wolf dog and the ghost, only about a mile away, which allowed several people to see clearly what was happening.

That ghost was actually bitten to death by that big wolfdog!

A ghost was bitten to death by a dog?

If they had heard it from others, neither Yang Jian nor Li Jun would have believed such a ridiculous joke, but this incident actually happened before their eyes.

When the ghost stopped struggling, the dark sky around it brightened again.

When the light reached a certain peak and began to fade, the ghost reappeared in the dense forest in the distance...

The big wolf dog dropped the ghost's corpse, looked at Yang Jian and the others, then turned its head, roared at the resurrected ghost, and rushed over again.

"A dog doesn't have the memory of a living person, nor does it have any flaws. It only has the instinct to hunt. Ghosts can't target its weaknesses, and can't even resist... Sometimes, those of us who think we are powerful ghost riders are not even as good as a dog."

Guo Fan laughed at himself.

Li Jun said in a deep voice: "Instead of expressing such meaningless emotions, what we need to worry about now is that we seem to be trapped in an endless cycle."

"That's right. The light and dark of the sky should represent the beginning and end of a new day. The resurrection of a ghost in a dream is a different kind of restart. Its body in the outside world is suppressed by the spirit of the store manager, making it impossible for it to wake up. In other words, every time it dies, it will enter the dream again and be killed by the dog again." Yang Jian's face looked a little ugly.

Guo Fan was surprised and asked, "You mean, we are trapped in a dream?"

"The ghost cannot be killed, and it is no match for the big wolfdog. Unless the ghost can be replaced, we are really trapped, trapped in a dream." Li Jun said, looking at his body.

The body without skin has begun to weaken.

It won't be long before he dies in his dream, and in this dream, he is just an ordinary person, an ordinary person who cannot be resurrected.

Ah Hong looked at Li Jun worriedly, and did not say anything sentimental. She just whispered, "The store manager is still outside. He won't watch us die in our dreams. After all, in the worldview of ordinary people, how could someone die in a dream, right?"

Li Jun thought to himself: "That's what common sense says, but what if He behind the scenes intervenes?"

This is the most horrible outcome, but no one will say it out loud.

They are obviously some of the best ghost riders in the country, and they follow such a terrifying existence as the "store manager", yet they would face a crisis of certain death?
What a joke!
Unfortunately, they don't have the ability to break this joke, and can only pin their hopes on a being who they don't know whether it is a human or a ghost...

At the same time, in a cabin deep in the woods.

Yang Xiao sat on the bed, looking at the man in front of him, or rather Lin Yuan, with complicated eyes, "Who are you?"

Lin Yuan withdrew his gaze from outside the wooden house and said with a smile: "I thought you would ask why you didn't disappear."

Yang Xiao was silent.

Time went back to a few minutes ago, and his consciousness suddenly appeared in reality and met Yang Jian and others in reality.

When he returned to his dream again, although he was somewhat shocked and confused about who Lin Yuan was, the plan that he had spent more than ten years to complete was finally going to have a result, and he did not have time to think about it too much.

Over ten years!
He has been trapped here for more than ten years, just to wait until this day!
As he lay on the bed, his body kept disappearing and blending into the surrounding darkness, as if the spiritual power could no longer sustain his existence and was being erased.

Faced with all these strange changes, there was no change on his dull and stiff face.

No fear, no tension.

Instead, there is a sense of relief.

During the whole process, he didn't say a word, and there was nothing worth explaining. He just looked at a huge black shadow beside the bed.

This was the choice he made, a dog dragged into a nightmare.

"I should have died more than a decade ago..."

He murmured softly, as if recalling something, until the darkness gradually swallowed up his figure, until the huge black wolfhound stood up from the bed, broke open the door and walked out.

Then, Yang Xiao was shocked to find that he did not disappear.

There was also one more person in the wooden house, the person who had been seen once in the nightmare and once in reality - Lin Yuan!
An existence that can use terrifying supernatural powers to reverse the changes in his own body, an extremely terrifying existence.

"Supernatural powers are inherently strange. You are terrifying, terrifying to the point of making people despair. Yang Jian and the others were wrong in their guess. You have no weaknesses in consciousness at all, or rather, your weaknesses are not in consciousness at all. You are like a high and mighty god, overlooking all living beings in this world. All the terror and despair seem like a game in your eyes."

Yang Xiao spoke these words slowly, and they sounded like a believer praising the gods, but in his eyes there was only endless uneasiness, strong murderous intent and... loss.

"You... are too dangerous."
