I open a restaurant in Mysterious Recovery

Chapter 410: A replacement destined to succeed, a choice between ideals and interests
"With the store manager here, how dare Zhang Xianguang kill someone here?" Zhang Lei didn't believe it. Even though he was also tied up, he couldn't believe that Zhang Xianguang had such courage.

Cao Yang sat in the second seat to his left and looked around. "If this is really a world of consciousness, then Zhang Xianguang might indeed attack us. Because in the store manager's understanding, it is impossible to kill someone in consciousness."

"We don't know if our death here will cause our injuries to be reflected in reality. If so, it might make Zhang Xianguang wary. Even if there is no feedback, I'm afraid he will be in trouble. If I'm not mistaken, he should be nearby." Wei Jing said.

Yang Jian, Wei Jing, Zhang Lei, Cao Yang, and Sun Rui, a total of five people were mixed in this private school.

There were at least twenty-three strange students sitting in the private school. The five of them seemed out of place here, but unfortunately, they had no way to control themselves, let alone use their supernatural powers.

Do not!
It's not that I can't use supernatural powers, but that I can't feel the existence of supernatural powers at all. It's impossible to say that this is not a world of consciousness.

Such a strange scene cannot help but arouse suspicion.

Just as Wei Jing finished speaking, a student in front of him, who was pale and dressed in black, suddenly spoke up, "You are right. If I let you die here, I really have no way to explain. If it was just one person, it would be easy to explain. As long as the operation was better, I could say it was a sudden heart attack and it had nothing to do with me. But with five people in a row, there is no way to use such an excuse. So don't worry, I trapped you here just to prevent you from disturbing my plan, that's all."

Yang Jian looked over and asked in a deep voice, "Zhang Xianguang?"

Zhang Xianguang did not deny it.

Since he dared to speak, he would not deny his identity, but Sun Rui sneered, "It sounds so good, but what is the reality? What is that thing at the door? Don't tell us that it is not here to kill people."

Crunch!

The door of the old private school suddenly opened, a cold breath rushed in, footsteps were heard, and a strange man in old clothes, lifeless and lifeless walked in, holding a rusty machete in his hand.

This machete is the one that Zhang Xianguang once held in his hand. It is extremely dangerous.

This person looked very unfamiliar. His face was full of wrinkles and had black and blue spots. There was no life in his body, as if he was a corpse that had been dead for seven days and had come back to life again.

"It's a ghost!"

This thought came to Yang Jian and his companions’ minds when they saw it for the first time.

The ghost walked in with a knife, and everyone was unable to move, like fish on a chopping board, at the mercy of others.

"Zhang Xianguang, ah Zhang Xianguang, is there a single word you say that we can believe?" Zhang Lei gritted his teeth. He tried hard to struggle, but it was of no avail.

But he happened to be sitting in the seat closest to the gate.

The ghost that walked into the private school was closest to him and walked straight towards him.

Zhang Lei's face changed drastically. He didn't want to die here inexplicably. Zhang Xianguang stopped talking too. It seemed that he was angry and embarrassed after being exposed by them and was unwilling to speak again.

But no one cared to look at him anymore; they all stared at the ghost.

The ghost walked a few steps and suddenly stopped, stopping next to Zhang Lei, then suddenly raised the machete in his hand and chopped down.

Fortunately, its target was not Zhang Lei, but the strange student on the other side.

The strange student did not move at all, as if he was unaware of the danger, and let the machete fall and cut off his neck. His head fell off his body and rolled on the ground.

But soon, the headless body and the head that fell to the ground began to disappear gradually, and finally nothing was left, and a seat was vacant.

The ghost continued to move forward, completely passing Zhang Lei's position.

But Zhang Lei did not feel relieved at all. Instead, his face looked extremely grim. "If no one helped us outside, we might all die here this time."

"I really didn't expect that Zhang Xianguang actually has such supernatural powers. It's terrifying. If I didn't have conscious supernatural powers, I would probably just become a fish on the chopping board, at his mercy." Wei Jing also felt the pressure.

Ever since the Ghost Lake incident in Taiping Ancient Town, he was given a ghost catcher's arm by the "store manager", giving him the supernatural power to unconditionally suppress nine ghosts, making him a little ghost catcher.

Since then, this part of his power has been limited.

He couldn't stack his quota of suppressing evil spirits without limit like the ghost catcher, but the quota of suppressing these nine ghosts made him feel no pressure when facing supernatural events other than the Peace Hotel.

During this period, in addition to attacking the Peace Hotel, he also handled many supernatural incidents for the headquarters.

Although there were no S-level supernatural events, there were quite a few A-level ones. They were all very easy to handle in his hands, and he didn't even need to think too hard.

As long as the evil ghost dares to appear, it will be easily suppressed by him.

Because of this, although he did not say it, he already had a sense of casualness and contempt in his heart. Even though he had to stop Zhang Xianguang this time, even though he was facing the siege of nearly a hundred ghosts, he did not feel too much pressure.

But now?
A spiritual trick of consciousness trapped them in this haunted private school, leaving him with no ability to resist and completely shattering the false sense of strength in his heart.

"I should find a similar supernatural job, a consciousness-related one, to avoid this becoming my only shortcoming."

There are many people who share the same idea as him.

Zhang Lei, Sun Rui, and Cao Yang all had the same idea, but Yang Jian thought of the corpse that was handed to him by the "store manager" when he was "treasure hunting" in his hometown Meishan Village some days ago.

He is a ghost rider who has already mastered the conscious spirit, but where is that spirit?
Yang Jian had a ghost dream in his mind!
That’s right, it’s a ghost dream.

During this period of time, he has already controlled the ghost dream, and now the ghost dream is in his consciousness, it is a black vicious dog.

But now, he was restricted in Zhang Xianguang's ghost private school, and the black vicious dog should have been looking for him, or invading him!
What we need to do now is to delay the time as much as possible...

Click!

With another slash of the knife, the strange student sitting on Yang Jian's right was beheaded, which made Yang Jian's heart sink completely.

"I hope the ghost dream can be faster, otherwise I will really die here."

As time passed, the number of strange students in the ghost private school became fewer and fewer. Originally there were about twenty or thirty of them, but now there are only two left.

One was an ordinary weird student, and the other was Zhang Xianguang who had just spoken.

But the strange thing is.

This ghost seemed to be randomly selecting people to execute, but each time it chose those strange students and never fell on Yang Jian and others.

At this time, Zhang Xianguang spoke again, "I said, I won't kill you, I just want to trap you here. I also know you won't believe it, so I will prove it with actual actions. Of course, it doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. What's important is that you stay here honestly until my action is over. Especially you, Yang Jian, the dog that is invading outside, is it yours?"

Everyone looked outside the Ghost Private School.

It can be seen that what was originally a gray area seemed to be an old village vaguely visible, and in this old village, a black vicious dog was approaching.

But this evil dog is still some distance away from the ghost school.

Calculated based on the speed at which the ghost kills the evil students, it will need to kill at least ten evil students before it can arrive completely, or invade.

"There's only one student left, and with you there are only two of us. I want to see how you're going to fulfill your promise of not killing us but trapping us."

Yang Jian spoke calmly and did not mention the black vicious dog at all.

Zhang Xianguang was unmoved and said calmly: "Some things can be done repeatedly."

While everyone was puzzled, the ghost had already killed the last strange student, and the originally stable ghost school was now becoming illusory.

In just a blink of an eye, the vision of several people began to blur, and the invasion of the ghost dream was completely interrupted.

next moment.

The ghost private school appeared again, and Yang Jian, Wei Jing, Cao Yang, Zhang Lei, and Sun Rui sat inside again, but compared with before, their positions had changed a little, and it was completely random.

Around them, the weird students who had been softly killed were sitting back in their seats again.

The student next to Yang Jian spoke up, "This is how I am going to trap you. Yang Jian, except for you, no one else has conscious spirits, and your ghost dreams need a medium, probably water, to invade reality? But you have to be careful, because I will only give you a moment, otherwise you will have to stay here forever."

In a moment, Yang Jian would find a water source in reality, and then let the ghost dream invade reality and break Zhang Xianguang's restrictions?

Zhang Lei and the others all looked very ugly.

Just now, they did see the scene in reality, but they were not sure. It was not until Zhang Xianguang mentioned it now that they were able to confirm it.

But where is the water there?

Even if there were, they were all restricted, and the people around them were all Zhang Xianguang's men. How could they be given a chance?
"No, there is another possibility, that is, the ghost dream has completely invaded here. Zhang Xianguang, you have to be careful, the supernatural power also has memory, and its invasion speed will only get faster and faster. But you don't have to worry, since you didn't kill me, no matter what the reason is, I will remember this favor. When the ghost dream really invades, I will only take away this ghost school and your ghost, and I will not take your life. I will let you go this time." Yang Jian said.

Zhang Xianguang showed an admiring look in his eyes, "Very good courage. If you can't do this, I will doubt whether there is something wrong with the store manager's vision. If you can do it, then go for it. I also hope to see someone surpass me." Cao Yang smiled and said, "You still have such awareness?"

Zhang Xianguang looked at him and said seriously: "Everything I do is just to end the supernatural era. Whether you understand it or not, this is my goal. If someone can surpass me, and it is one of you, you should also have your own plans and methods, which can be better and more perfect than mine. After all, my plan is flawed, but this is all I can do now."

After a pause, he glanced at Yang Jian, Zhang Lei, Wei Jing, Cao Yang and Sun Rui one by one, "If you are stronger than me, then kill me, step on my corpse, and become the hero of the end era. I will always be here waiting for you, waiting for the day when you completely surpass me. Of course, if you are still mediocre under the protection of the store manager, then you will all become nourishment for the new era."

Zhang Xianguang's speech completely silenced Yang Jian and others.

This awareness.

This is cruel.

There is indeed nothing more to say. Everything depends on the next game, and this game is between Yang Jian and Zhang Xianguang.

only……

Zhang Lei, Wei Jing and Cao Yang all had flames in their eyes, and even Sun Rui's heart was surging with emotion.

The look he gave Zhang Xianguang was no longer full of pure hostility. It was like he was looking at an unstable factor. Instead, there was a hint of admiration.

I admire it, but my stance will never change.

At the same time, in reality, in the ghost domain of the "store manager", in the abandoned courtyard far away from the primary school.

Yang Jian, Zhang Lei, Wei Jing, Cao Yang, Sun Rui and Zhang Xianguang all stood there, as if they had fallen asleep while standing.

Only for a moment did several people open their eyes at the same time, but closed them again the next moment.

"If we can kill them now, the next thing will be much easier. After all, even if our plan today succeeds, it is only the first step. If we want to completely complete the Peach Blossom Spring Project, these people will become an obstacle for us to completely control the world."

Chen Qiaoyang's words were filled with murderous intent, and he was even ready to take action.

Nie Yingping stood in front of him and said, "Do you want to die? This is the store manager's ghostland. If you really want to kill them here, have you thought about how to explain it?"

Chen Qiaoyang looked unhappy.

He really had no way to solve this problem, but now he finally had the chance to kill Yang Jian and others but he couldn't do it, and he was very unwilling to accept it.

"If you want to die, don't implicate us." Wang Han didn't even look at him, but with just one sentence, Chen Qiaoyang completely gave up the idea of ​​killing Yang Jian and others.

He glanced at Yang Jian hatefully and said, "Okay, let's let him go for now. But next time, I will definitely kill him."

"Okay, if you can kill him by then, we won't stop you." Wang Han said quietly.

Chen Qiaoyang's eyes were full of ferocity, but he didn't say anything.

He would naturally not engage in internal strife or anything like that now. After all, the Peach Blossom Spring plan still had a lot of variables. If he really offended the "store manager" now, that would be a real big trouble.

"The conflict is about to end." Zhang Ying said suddenly.

Several people looked over quickly.

He Yuelian, like a bride in red, had been standing still for more than half an hour, and finally some subtle changes occurred.

You can hear some painful sounds, as if someone is suffering from some kind of painful torture.

at the same time.

The originally blurry figure of the evil spirit holding He Yuelian's hand gradually became transparent, as if it was about to disappear.

Such changes attracted the attention of all the sober people present.

Chen Qiaoyang, Nie Yingping, Du Hong, Zhang Ying and Wang Han are all elderly people who have experienced countless supernatural events and are very sensitive to the supernatural.

What happened at this moment meant that there was no doubt that the magical power of the ghost painting was dissipating, and these dissipated magical powers did not really disappear out of thin air, but were transferred to He Yuelian.

"The first stage of the supernatural conflict has ended, and now it is the second stage, when the supernatural begins to merge. The results will be out soon. Either He Yuelian will become the new ghost rider and control the ghost painting, or an unimaginably terrifying ghost may appear." Chen Qiaoyang said in a deep voice.

Nie Yingping's gaze turned to Zhang Xianguang.

Because Yang Jian and others were trapped in the ghost private school, Ling Yiguang is now in a dormant state, but Zhang Xianguang is still awake.

"You should proceed with your next plan."

According to their plan, Zhang Xianguang will be the real controller of the Peach Blossom Spring in the future, and they will serve as administrators to assist Zhang Xianguang in managing the order of the Peach Blossom Spring.

The ghosts in the oil painting of the Ghost Post Office who were previously recruited will also be the next level of management under them.

But the prerequisite for all this is that Zhang Xianguang seizes the fruit from He Yuelian and achieves everything.

Zhang Xianguang said, "We don't know the specific results yet, let's wait and see. Although this method will not fail, if the final conflict stimulates the store manager Bai Wu Lingyi and he starts to protect He Yuelian, then my method may not be able to replace her."

The expressions of Chen Qiaoyang and others changed.

If Zhang Xianguang cannot take away everything and cannot become the controller of the ghost painting, then what should they do with their plan? Do they have to work for He Yuelian?

Moreover, He Yuelian hated them so much now. Even if they were willing to compromise or even surrender to her, with He Yuelian's personality, how could she agree?

"That's not what you said when we started planning." Chen Qiaoyang's voice was hoarse and even suppressed, like a volcano about to erupt.

However, at this moment, Du Hong, Zhang Ying, Wang Han, and Nie Yingping all stood in front of Zhang Xianguang tacitly, blocking Chen Qiaoyang.

Chen Qiaoyang looked at this scene in disbelief, "Are you crazy? He lied to us, and you still want to stop me?"

Moreover, he is not sure whether Zhang Xianguang really has no follow-up measures, and he has not thought about taking action against Zhang Xianguang.

Nie Yingping was playing with the rattle in his hand. It was obvious that he was very afraid of Chen Qiaoyang. "Chen Qiaoyang, you may have made a mistake. We followed him to promote the Peach Blossom Spring Project because we had our own ideas, but that was only our secondary goal."

"Nie Yingping is right. Our first expectation is always the same and will never change. That is, to end the supernatural era!" Du Hong said in a deep voice.

Zhang Ying stood beside him, a little behind him by half a body length. This half body length made most of her figure hidden, revealing an extremely dangerous feeling. "We are different from you. We first recognized his ideals and the blueprint he outlined. Chen Qiaoyang, you are no longer trustworthy. Leave. We will not hunt you down."

Song Xinhai didn't say anything, but his eyes were equally firm.

Chen Qiaoyang's face looked extremely ugly. He had never thought that he would achieve the achievement of being a "lonely man" in such a short moment.

He could only look at the last person, who was also the youngest among them all, "Wang Han, are you also following Zhang Xianguang for that illusory dream?"

Wang Han shook his head and said, "Of course not."

"That's more like it. In that case..."

Chen Qiaoyang looked much more relaxed, but before he could finish his words, Wang Han continued, "I just admire what Brother Zhang is like, and I am willing to serve as a pioneer for you."

Chen Qiaoyang was so angry that he was shaking all over. After a long while, he slowly uttered a few words: "A bunch of lunatics!"

Nie Yingping and the others didn't say anything else, but they stood firmly in front of Zhang Xianguang, like a barrier, not to protect Zhang Xianguang, but to protect their ideals and the future they expected.

Zhang Xianguang's gaze swept across the backs of several people, his eyes flashed slightly, but he didn't say anything.

Chen Qiaoyang left. Although he was confident enough to fight against many enemies alone, that was under the premise that there were enough evil spirits around him and Zhang Xianguang was not there.

Just the ability of Zhang Xianguang to target consciousness made him extremely fearful.

In this case, he naturally had no reason to stay, but he headed to Shuangqiao Town Primary School, and he left a message: "I'm not as righteous as you, I just want to survive. From now on, we will each take care of our own business, but it won't be long before I will become an employee of the Peace Hotel. When the time comes, for the sake of our past friendship, I will... entertain you well."

"Chen Qiaoyang got in touch with the store manager? Why haven't I heard of it before?" Nie Yingping frowned, looking a little uneasy.

If Chen Qiaoyang really became an employee of the Peace Hotel, then given the relationship between them, it would probably not be so easy to resolve.

"It should have happened this morning. He can herd evil spirits, so for a store manager who wants to collect evil spirits, he is indeed worth recruiting as an employee. But don't worry, if he really becomes the store manager's employee, it will be a good thing. At least at that time, he needs to act according to the rules of the Peace Hotel. Once there is a trace to follow, the danger level will drop sharply."

Zhang Xianguang’s words made everyone feel at ease. There was no other way. The deterrent power of the “store manager” was too terrifying and too scary.

At this time, He Yuelian was experiencing terrible spiritual invasion.
