Chapter 343: Taiping Town Ghost Bank, Virtual Game Points

"Can we just ask for Manager He?"

Ling Yiguang really wanted to say this, but he held back.

If you really want to hold a banquet in your hometown, you don't want a cook or a servant, but instead you have to have a lobby manager. It doesn't make sense no matter how you look at it.

He and He Yuelian are now in a teacher-student relationship, so he can't use the reason of pursuit as an excuse, right?
That's totally against moral principles!
Although Ling Yiguang was obsessed with the Peach Blossom Spring plan, he never forgot his identity as a teacher, never.

He didn't say anything, but Lin Yuan would not let go of such a good opportunity. "Lao Zhang, how about we just settle it like this? You tell us the standards for the banquet, and we'll do the calculations, and you just need to give us a deposit."

Ling Yiguang nodded, "The situation is still uncertain for now, but I'll give you the deposit first, and we'll talk about it once the specific situation is confirmed."

"Haha! So refreshing!"

Lin Yuan was overjoyed. He didn't expect that such a project with no time, no number of people, and nothing confirmed except the location could be negotiated.

Should we say that Ling Yiguang has a hole in his brain, or should we say that he is determined?

In any case, this is a good thing for Lin Yuan.

Ling Yiguang took out an old-fashioned key from his arms. The key was made of copper and was covered with rust, making people doubt whether it could still be used.

Fortunately, its function is still there.

The spiritual light easily opened the copper lock of the ghost cage, and then opened the cage mouth, and several ghosts rushed out immediately.

But the moment they rushed out, before they had time to escape or attack the people here, they turned into animals one after another.

A red-eyed rabbit, a tiger, a wolf, and a wild boar.

Four animals, including three wild beasts, ran towards the door as soon as they appeared.

They were very fast and were about to rush out in the blink of an eye. Four dull collision sounds were heard in succession: "Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The four animals seemed to have hit a transparent wall, knocking themselves unconscious, and slid straight down from the door.

Lin Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. "It seems that the quality of this glass door is really good."

The supernatural effect of the house number 707 was distorted into a transparent glass door in the "store manager's" cognition, blocking any person or ghost who did not get the "store manager's" permission or did not meet the Peace Hotel rules from leaving.

"Xiao An Xiao Xi, come alive!"

Lin Yuan called out, and then the king's twins walked up, each holding up an animal by its hind legs with both hands, and headed towards the utility room.

The little rabbit was better.

Tigers, wolves, and wild boars were all bigger than their bodies, but they were dragged away by them with stars in their eyes. This scene...

If they had not turned into little gorillas but had retained their original appearance, it would probably have shocked many people.

Lin Yuan retracted his gaze and placed the ghost cage next to Lingyi's bare feet, and asked curiously: "This is also a space equipment. It can actually hold so many animals?"

This cage is not very big. Normally, a tiger has to curl up in order to fit in.

But what happened was that animals several times the size of ours ran out, and it seemed that there were even more animals inside.

I said before that space technology is not popular yet...

Zhong Shan is the person in charge of the headquarters and he should not lie, so there is only one possibility, that is, Ling Yiguang has a wealthy family!
Unfortunately, even such a person still uses animals to pay the bills, and for convenience he also carries a cage with space properties like a storage bag.

Ling Yiguang locked the ghost cage again and said with a smile: "Well, it is indeed a very good prop."

Lin Yuan sighed, "I am a little confused. Has the current monetary system really collapsed? Why do people use animals to pay bills? Now that animals have become hard currency, don't you think it's inconvenient?"

Ling Yiguang looked surprised.

It’s not that he thinks this question is strange, because he also thinks this settlement method is very inconvenient, but the problem is...

Wasn't it you who came up with this settlement method? Now you're disliking it?

However, the "store manager" is the boss. No matter how violent and fearful he is in real life, he still has to follow the "store manager's" rules and even the "store manager's" ideas on his territory.

"This transaction method is indeed inconvenient, but there is nothing we can do about it. The old money houses are now abandoned and no money is produced anymore."

The words sounded familiar.

Lin Yuan thought about it and seemed to have heard such an explanation before from Cao Yanhua or Li Jun, which also involved props for making money and so on.

To put it simply, the tools used to make money are gone, either damaged or missing, and there is no way to make similar money again. The release of the new currency has only been recognized by some people, not everyone. Only animals have become the universal currency and can be used for settlement anywhere.

But this is not right either.

Although he has not done much research in this area, he has a general understanding of it.

As long as there is enough hard currency, we can use this hard currency to issue a currency that the people trust. Otherwise, how could the generations of currency updates before the time travel be recognized by the people? Just by talking?
Logically speaking, as the official department of this world, the headquarters must have sufficient animal reserves. As long as these animal reserves are used to gain the recognition of the people, there should be no problem in issuing currency.

Is there something I am not clear about?
"Speaking of money houses, I remember the last one that disappeared was more than ten years ago, and that money house seemed to be in Taiping Town."

Ling Yiguang slapped his forehead, as if he suddenly remembered something.

Taiping Town?
After hearing this, Lin Yuan immediately looked towards the cashier counter. He Yiner had not left yet. She had been eating melon in the store since just now.

The gossip between He Yuelian, Tong Qian and the spiritual light.

But she never expected that while eating the melon, she would actually eat her own body... As expected, the supernatural light was still too dangerous, so she should find a chance to kill him.

"Big He, come over and have a chat." Lin Yuan called out, and when He Yin'er came over, he asked, "Is there such a bank in your hometown?"

He Yiner nodded and did not hide it. "I remember there seemed to be such a bank when I was a child, but later there were no people. In fact, many shops on that street in Taiping Town were in this situation, but there was a flood in the town some time ago, which flooded most of the old streets and the bank."

"That's it, okay then."

Lin Yuan felt a little regretful, but he still had some ideas in his mind. However, there were outsiders around, so it was not convenient for him to say them out loud.

"Boss, take the medicine."

Fang Shiming came over with a bowl of medicine. This was the daily dose for him and Liu Qingqing. It was also the medicine made from Zhang Bohua, and its purpose was to suppress schizophrenia.

At the beginning, Lin Yuan thought that this medicine had no effect, because he would lose some memory from time to time, and during the period of losing memory, he would still be active.

But recently the effect of the medicine seemed to have taken effect, and he hadn't had such an experience in a long time.

Even if Liu Qingqing's symptoms were not relieved, she still had to let her drink for a while longer.

After drinking the medicine, Lin Yuan did not continue chatting with Ling Yiguang, but returned to the cashier counter and communicated with the golden finger in his mind.

His "Golden Finger" is of the exchange type, which can be used to exchange ghosts, animals and ghost money.

Ghost money is the real currency recognized by him, the "store manager".

"If I open a window here where people can exchange animals for currency and then charge a fee, will that be a good idea?"

This thought popped up in Lin Yuan’s mind.

But he soon gave up the idea.

"The innocent man is guilty of possessing a treasure! Now the tools for making currency are lost, and even the headquarters is gone. If I open a window here to exchange a large amount of currency, it is likely to attract the covetousness of some people. Even the headquarters may come to ask for that thing, but I only have the golden finger. It is impossible to hand over the golden finger, right?"

and many more!

Lin Yuan's eyes lit up and he asked:
[Lao Jin, can the tools for making currency be exchanged? How much is a set? ]

However, he waited and waited, but there was no response from the "Golden Finger", which made Lin Yuan a little disappointed. "It seems that this plan won't work. I have to think of other ways. Otherwise, let's go to Da He's hometown to have a look? Although that place was flooded, there might be treasures left there?"

……

On the third floor, Zhen Lin Yuan couldn't help but roll his eyes, "You really think I'm an omnipotent golden finger. If I can exchange any item at will, do I still need to separate my consciousness?"

……

As time went by, more and more customers came to the store.

Ling Yiguang left after finishing his greasy breakfast, leaving under He Yuelian's hostile gaze.

The doors of the e-sports room on the second floor also opened at this moment.

Cao Yang, Wei Jing, Zhang Lei and Zhou Deng walked out of the door at the same time, looked at each other, and saw the fatigue in each other's eyes.

"The side effects of failing the game are really significant. I have to go downstairs to eat something to replenish my energy, otherwise I'm worried that I'll die suddenly. This feeling is like staying up all night for three or four days." Zhou Deng yawned, looking listless.

Although this metaphor is a bit exaggerated, it is not far off the mark.

Although the ghost controlled by the body is still there, the feeling of having its terror limit forcibly stripped away is like some essence being sucked out of the body, making people lose the motivation.

Fortunately, this loss can be replenished through eating, otherwise they would not be able to play this fatal game many times.

"Wait a minute, don't forget the updated points mode in this game. After I failed the game, I was directly popped out and didn't find the points mall. What about you? Did you find it?" Cao Yang talked about the most important thing.

The emergence of the points mode makes virtual games more friendly.

Although you may not be able to redeem anything good, at least it can provide some psychological comfort. But if these points are just a gimmick, then it would be really a rip-off.

It’s a rubbish game, don’t play it!
Wei Jing shook his head. "I didn't find the points mall either. Is it possible to redeem it from the store manager?"

"That's possible, but how many points did you get?" Zhang Lei looked at everyone curiously, "Let me tell you about mine first. In the game, I defeated three ghost riders from the Supernatural Forum, ate six ghosts, and got 3 points."

Wei Jing smiled with a straight face, "Mine is better. I defeated 4 ghost riders from the Supernatural Forum, imprisoned 23 ghosts, and got 43 points."

"Oh my god! You guys have gained so much, unlike me, who doesn't have any points at all!" Zhou Deng's eyes widened and he was almost drooling.

Cao Yang was surprised and said, "No, where have you been? How come you don't have any points? Could it be that you really only know how to steal things?"

Zhou Deng's expression suddenly twisted a bit.

Stealing is his strong point, and even his supernatural powers tend to be in this direction, as if in response to his past experience of stealing electric bikes.

But when it comes to imprisoning evil spirits and fighting against ghost riders, his strength is definitely not bad.

But the problem is.

After he entered the game, he followed his habit in real life and avoided the ghost riders in the supernatural forum.

He originally wanted to imprison the evil spirit, but ended up being caught by Ling Yiguang and Nie Yingping.

Then after the two sides communicated, they went to the Endless Cemetery together to find the hidden BOSS Luo Qian to play games, and he was responsible for stealing Luo Qian's supernatural weapons.

how to say?

He actually succeeded and stole an extremely terrifying supernatural weapon - the coffin nail!

This is a terrifying weapon that can kill most evil spirits. If it can be brought into the game, it will definitely be a huge profit.

It might even be more profitable than controlling a new evil spirit.

Unfortunately, the coffin nails were used to nail Luo Qian, but they failed to nail him down, and were wasted in vain. He didn't even have a chance to appear on the stage, and was directly buried with grave soil by the runaway Luo Qian, becoming an inconspicuous new grave in the endless cemetery.

This kind of experience is so despairing that it is hard to recall.

Especially after being buried in the soil, the suffocation and death did not come instantly, but slowly swept over him, like a chronic execution, and almost left him with a psychological trauma.

Seeing him like this, Cao Yang did not ask any more questions, but patted Zhou Deng on the shoulder comfortingly, which made Zhou Deng burst into tears: "Brother Cao, have you ever had the same experience?"

"Haha, no."

Cao Yang retracted his hand and no longer looked at the speechless Zhou Deng. "My points are less than all of yours. I haven't killed any ghost riders in the Supernatural Forum. I have suppressed 7 evil spirits, so I only have 7 points."

Unlike Zhou Deng, Cao Yang has always been on the front line.

However, in order to increase the strength of Wei Jing and Zhang Lei, when facing the ghost riders from the supernatural forum who attacked them, he chose to retreat and handed these people over to Wei Jing and Zhang Lei.

It's just a shame.

Even after Wei Jing and Zhang Lei increased their strength, they were not able to achieve very good results.

However, the design of this game is indeed a bit fucked up. They are still thinking about whether they can control, or steal the scapegoat's supernatural powers by killing Ye Zhen.

If they can do this, then this all-purpose BUG-level ghost will greatly increase their upper limit of strength.

But who can know.

Ye Zhen actually ran into the endless cemetery by himself, and was buried with grave soil by the hidden BOSS Luo Qian... What a guy!

If a real game was designed like this, it would probably be criticized by players!

But this is the Peace Hotel, the e-sports room, and the virtual game...

"Let's go downstairs first. Ask the store manager about the virtual games. These points may not be many, but their purchasing power should be good."

The four of them went downstairs chatting.

There were already quite a few guests sitting in the lobby on the first floor, most of whom were strangers whom I had never seen before.

No one was surprised.

Supernatural events are happening more and more frequently, causing more casualties, and are bound to give rise to a large number of ghost riders.

The headquarters only controls a large area of ​​the city. With the current strength of the headquarters, it is impossible to know every inch of land in the country.

However, from the moment these people appeared in the Peace Hotel, they had already entered the headquarters' sight.

Guo Fan would take photos of them and hand them over to the headquarters when he got off work. The headquarters would then be able to find out their real identities by comparing the information.

If you have no money to eat and are kicked out of the Peace Hotel, then there is naturally nothing to say.

Because most of these people are dead. Without the support of supernatural powers, they will not live long even if they are not attacked.

There are also some new ghost handlers who are not greatly eroded by the supernatural. Although they will be injured or even disabled after being stripped of the evil ghosts, at least they survived and no longer have to worry about the evil ghosts' revival. It can be considered a blessing in disguise.

This type of headquarters will only pay close attention and will not disturb their lives.

But the other category, that is, those who can dine normally at the Peace Hotel, pay the bill and leave, will be contacted and invited by the headquarters will send people.

Just like Zhou Deng back then.

From this perspective, the emergence of the Peace Hotel is also beneficial, at least it has greatly increased the manpower of the headquarters.

Although these people's strength is generally not very high, and they will be forcibly stripped of a ghost by the Peace Hotel, causing their strength to further decline, they can enable the headquarters to greatly increase its control over various parts of the country, and they are a very good force.

But there was an extra...parrot at the cash register?
"It seems that a parrot was caught in the store before, and it was a monster. The store manager fed it to the hungry ghosts, so that the hungry ghosts could shout "Welcome". The first person and ghost passing by the Peace Hotel could not escape and had to come in obediently. Now there is another parrot, and it was not eaten?" Zhou Deng was a little surprised. His eyes began to shine as he looked at the parrot, and his fingers moved unconsciously.

Obviously, he was about to get into the state, the state of seeing prey.

Who says ghosts can only steal dead things?

At this moment, a customer near the door stood up and walked to the cashier. The parrot immediately said, "Please check out. One animal, thank you."

It was clearly a parrot, but the voice it spoke was a pleasant female voice, sounding like the voice of a cute girl of eighteen or nineteen years old.

Hearing the female voice, the guest's eyes became a little dazed and his movements became stiff. Then he raised his hand, grabbed the sloth that was around his waist and handed it over.

“Thank you for your patronage!”

Xiao An took the sloth and went straight to the utility room with very skillful movements. As the parrot thanked him, the guest's eyes returned to normal, but his body became noticeably weaker.

He looked at the parrot, He Yuelian, and Lin Yuan at the cash register, his eyes clearly filled with fear, but he did not dare to show it and left quickly.

“Welcome to visit again!”

The parrot spoke again, but it made the man walk even faster, not even daring to turn his head.

"For ordinary ghost riders, the Peace Hotel is not an opportunity." Wei Jing sighed imperceptibly.

Cao Yang and others did not say anything, obviously they all agreed very much.

The things sold in the Peace Hotel are all very good. The food can increase supernatural powers, the piano can have a certain strength and protection awareness for a certain period of time, the wish-bringing cat can make a wish, the surrogate doll can take your place once, and there are also ways to tame and control evil spirits, etc. It is definitely the best way to grow.

But there is a prerequisite:
You have to have enough ghosts!
As long as you have enough ghosts, you can get what you want in the Peace Hotel, but if you don’t, as long as you dare to come in, everything you have will stay in the Peace Hotel.

In short, one sentence:

Poor guy, take a detour!
This is the Peace Hotel, a place where opportunities and crises coexist.

"Stop being sad here, let's just do our best." Cao Yang glanced at everyone and walked down first, with a smile on his face, "Brother Yuan, good morning!"

Lin Yuan heard the voice and looked over. His brows, which had been furrowed in worry about the ghost money, now relaxed.

There’s nothing I can do, he’s a big customer!

"Good morning, you haven't had breakfast yet, right? The store just launched new products, you can order anything you want, we can make it as long as it can be made."

This is based on the opinions put forward by Lingyi Guang.

It is not good to eat too greasy food early in the morning. If you have some millet porridge, fried dough sticks, steamed buns, etc., sales should be better.

"Haha! Then you must taste it carefully later. But Brother Yuan, we have something to consult you about. It's about the game."

Cao Yang and others have come to the cashier. "Last night's game seems to have added a points mode. Although we didn't complete the game, we still got some points. But we don't know where the points mall is, so we wanted to come over and ask, and see what these points can be exchanged for."

"So that's what it is. Wait a minute."

Lin Yuan suddenly realized.

The E-Sports Room·Virtual Game is still in the closed beta stage and the game has undergone several improvements. A points mode was added last night, and he naturally knew about this.

He turned on the computer and signaled a few people to come in and take a look.

Cao Yang was not polite and walked in directly with Wei Jing, Zhang Lei and Zhou Deng, while Xiaoxi on the side stared at Zhou Deng with her eyes fixed.

Zhou Deng suddenly felt aggrieved that he was being treated differently, but when he found that there was an extra pen in his hand... cough cough!
Zhou Deng put the pen back on the bar as if nothing had happened, then put his hands in his trouser pockets.

As for Xiaoxi's gaze...

Just look at it, how can it be less of a piece of meat?

But when he was thinking this, he found that Cao Yang and others turned around and looked at him. Their eyes seemed very strange.
