I open a restaurant in Mysterious Recovery

Chapter 431 Your store is really messy! Wang Lu lost in the past

"Are you really going in?"

Watching Wang Chaling heading towards the old house, Cao Yang couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"Some things are beyond our control." Wang Chaling kept walking, his tone helpless.

Cao Yang understood instantly and said with a smile: "So that's how it is. The last person who plotted against him had to carry the ghost coffin for several months. I hope you can have a better ending this time. After all, your body should be comparable to Professor Wang's."

Wang Chaling had already completely entered the old house, and Cao Yang's smile faded.

Looking at the huge iron gate that looked like a huge mouth of an abyss, Cao Yang immediately reported the situation here to the headquarters. In the conference room of the headquarters, more than a dozen top figures in various industries such as psychology, sociology, and linguistics gathered together to analyze the actions of the "store manager".

When Cao Yang's message came back, there was another heated discussion.

Cao Yanhua rubbed his brows and felt a headache. "If only Professor Wang was still here, there would be no need to call so many people over."

Wang Xiaoming's importance has long been recognized.

But his importance was further confirmed when Wang Xiaoming refused to participate in any discussion about the Peace Hotel because of the Peace Hotel and the supernatural being of the "store manager".

"There's nothing we can do about it. Professor Wang, like Cao Yang and the others, have been corrupted by the manager's spirit. If they were to participate in the relevant discussions, they might conceal something or add more information, and we wouldn't even be able to tell the difference."

The person who spoke was Li Jun.

The Peace Hotel is closed today, and Wang Xiaoming has the spiritual protection of the "store manager". No one has yet been found who can break that spiritual protection, so Li Jun, the full-time bodyguard, is naturally idle.

"Previously, there was information showing that the store manager had appeared forty years ago. Unfortunately, the old masters in Taiping Ancient Town were not willing to communicate with us, and He Yin'er would not reveal this information."

"If the store manager really showed up forty years ago, there would definitely be traces left."

"Ordinary ghost riders may not know, but top ghost riders will definitely have corresponding records. Wang Chaling's parents happened to have experienced that era. According to the information accidentally revealed by Chen Qiaoyang, there is a notebook with information about the store manager in a mysterious corridor in the Wang family's old house. It might be the diary of Wang Lu and his wife."

"If we can get it, our research on store managers will make great progress."

Cao Yanhua nodded, "I hope so."

As they were chatting, there was a burst of noise outside the door again. Before Cao Yanhua could ask, the door of the conference room was pushed open.

Xiong Wenwen, who was only as tall as a person's chest, rushed in directly, stared at the picture on the big screen with wide eyes, and screamed, "I told you that Xiao Cao secretly went to see Brother Yuan without telling me, Xiong Dad, and you lied to me? Lao Cao, you are so mean! Believe it or not, after I change my words, I will not let Brother Yuan do your business!"

Cao Yanhua's face twitched, and he said with a dark face: "Xiong Wenwen, are you sure?"

Forehead!
Somehow, when facing the person in charge of the headquarters, Xiong Wenwen could arrogantly call himself "Dad Xiong", and even if it was Cao Yang who was ready to sanction him at any time, he could still take advantage of the other party verbally without the other party taking action.

But facing Cao Yanhua, an ordinary person, Xiong Wenwen could not be arrogant.

The main reason is that Cao Yanhua is usually very good to his mother Chen Shumei, so her mother does not have to raise him alone with the hard work like before.

Because of this relationship, he couldn't treat Cao Yanhua the same way he treated other people.

But he still felt aggrieved, and pointed at Cao Yang who looked thoughtful on the big screen and said, "He promised me that he could take me to see Brother Yuan! He also said that if I couldn't do it, I could continue to look for Zhang Xianguang to trade, and let Zhang Xianguang take me there!"

what? !

Cao Yanhua suddenly became annoyed and looked at the big screen angrily.

On the big screen, Cao Yang, who pretended to be thoughtful, couldn't help but smile awkwardly and said, "Don't be angry, Deputy Minister. I was just saying that. Zhang Xianguang is such a dangerous person, I certainly can't leave Xiong Wenwen to him! Xiong Wenwen, it's not that I don't want to bring you here, but the store manager and the others are doing team building, so you won't be able to see him even if you come."

This is a live connection. You can't avoid it by playing dumb. You have to face it head on.

Xiong Wenwen didn't buy his words. "You've spoken out of turn, now, immediately, take me to see Brother Yuan, or I'll go find Zhang Xianguang!"

"Okay, okay, I'll take you there." Li Jun said.

Xiong Wenwen was immediately overjoyed, "That's great, you're still the best! Much better than that guy who broke his promise, many, many times better!"

Even though Li Jun has a rich military career and ample experience in the paranormal circle, he is still somewhat helpless when facing Xiong Wenwen, a little troublemaker who sometimes acts like a spoiled brat and sometimes throws tantrums like a child king.

"Perhaps, throwing him to the store manager is also a good option?"

"No, no! If we really leave this little guy to the store manager, after he gets the store manager's protection, God knows what he will become. Don't let the sky burst open by then!"

Somehow.

Looking at Xiong Wenwen in front of him, Li Jun suddenly remembered Nezha, the third son of Li Jing, the defender of Chengtang Pass in the Investiture of the Gods. He was the one who started to pull dragon tendons in the sky and sea when he was still wearing a bellyband with his buttocks exposed.

"Let's go."

Li Jun is in very good condition. He can use the Ghost Domain Rainbow to go directly to Dadong City. It takes a very short time and there is no risk of evil spirits reviving.

However, he still chose to ask the headquarters to prepare the plane.

With the time it takes to prepare the plane and the several hours it takes to fly, perhaps everything will be over by the time we get there, and Xiong Wenwen will not cause any trouble.

Xiong Wenwen was still showing off to Cao Yang at this time, and didn't notice anything wrong at all, "Xiao Cao! If you don't take Daddy Xiong with you, I'll go find Brother Yuan, and there will naturally be someone to take him! Hehe! Are you dumbfounded?"

Daddy Bear?

Cao Yang narrowed his eyes and grinned, “I’ll wait for you here.”

Xiong Wenwen was stunned for a moment, then pointed at Cao Yang and said, "He threatened me! Look, he threatened me!!!"

Cao Yanhua: "..."

Li Jun: "..."

Cao Yang: "..."

"When it comes to bullying and snitching, this brat is truly invincible. Fortunately, he didn't go to an ordinary school, otherwise he might have become a primary school version of a school bully!"

After hanging up the phone, Cao Yang sighed.

He was also very troubled by Xiong Wenwen's arrival, but he couldn't just leave it alone, otherwise this kid would really dare to go find Zhang Xianguang.

Zhang Xianguang, it’s too dangerous.

Coupled with Xiong Wenwen's ability to predict the future, it will become even more terrifying and more difficult to guard against.

"I don't know what the situation is like in the old house."

The moment he entered the ancient house, Wang Chaling felt that the feeling of being restricted by the white fog around his body disappeared, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Then he looked around and his whole body stiffened visibly.

only because……

On the first floor, facing the main entrance, the ghost messenger Lao Fan stood there quietly, staring at him with a pair of dark eyes without pupils.

At the railing on the side of the second floor, the tall male corpse, Li Qingzhi, was holding a hatchet and looking at him as if he was looking at meat on a chopping board waiting to be slaughtered.

"You won't attack me, right?"

Wang Chaling's forehead was covered in cold sweat. Even though he knew that the ghost messenger and Li Qingzhi were unlikely to attack him, he still found it difficult to face them.

Even though he was protected by three majestic tigers, it would not be easy for him to die if he was attacked.

The stalemate did not last long. After a few breaths, the ghost catcher Lao Fan and the tall male corpse Li Qingzhi continued to wander around the first and second floors.

Wang Chaling wiped the sweat from his forehead and did not go in immediately. Instead, he looked around cautiously.

There are many rooms on the first, second and third floors of the ancient house, and most of these rooms have their doors closed at this time, but they can still be seen.

There are clearly some broken doors at the entrances of many rooms.

"These doors were broken by a supernatural force, and the force was quite strong, so it affected the effect of the bell's restart and did not completely disappear."

Wang Chaling made a quick judgment, but he also found a problem, "What about the others?"

Lin Yuan, Liu Qingqing, He Yuelian, Tong Qian, He Yiner, Guo Fan, Fang Shiming, Xiao An, Xiao Xi, and the two watchdogs transformed from the starving ghost and the knocking ghost are not here.

"Deep inside the third floor?"

Wang Chaling's ears moved, and he heard the sound of fighting coming from deep in the third floor, but he had no intention of going to check it out.

"He just let me in and released his restraints on me. So, it's okay for me to just stand here, right?"

Although I have overcome the psychological barriers and am ready to do business with the Peace Hotel.

But faced with this strange situation, he still resisted instinctively, just wanting to get through this strange time like this.

Do you really think he didn't hear what Cao Yang whispered?

The lessons of Wang Xiaoming and Fang Shiming were still there. Wang Chaling knew very well that he was likely to encounter bad things, so he would try to avoid them if possible.

Now, all the members of the Pendulum Survival Club have been completely killed by him, and the old house has returned to his hands, so there is naturally no need to take any more risks.

However, how could Lin Yuan, who saw all this, allow such a thing to happen?

"Forget about using white mist to force action. Now that you're in the game, just play the game you set up."

During the period of time on the second floor, Lin Yuan made a decision.

At the same time, a series of footsteps were heard from deep within the third floor, and then a huge figure broke through the wooden railings on the third floor, drew a perfect parabola in the air, and smashed straight towards Wang Chaling.

Wang Cha Ling took a closer look and said, "Giant gray wolf? No, it's a ghost! The members of the Pendulum Survival Club have all been cleared out, and their ghosts have also been imprisoned. There shouldn't be any extra ghosts left in the old house. So this ghost thing is in the prison?!!! Did they really find that place?"

Can't believe it!

According to Wang Chaling's plan, the "store manager" and his team would participate in the team building, which meant helping to clean up the members of the Pendulum Survival Club and at most strolling around the periphery.

To go to that time prison, you need to be in the right place at the right time.

Even for him, it took him several years of hard work and the effort of letting his father Wang Lu get lost in the ancient house to get this information.

How did the “store manager” and his team find it within an hour or two?

and.

The ghosts imprisoned inside do not exist in the present, but are imprisoned in the past. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for them to invade reality. Unless...

"Could it be that the store manager, or the people he brought with him, have even taken control of the pendulum clock? Impossible, absolutely impossible!!!"

Wang Chaling's expression kept changing, but the three tigers beside him were not idle.

The giant gray wolf that fell down was huge, only one size smaller than the youngest tigress among the three tigers.

But when it falls down.

The tigress simply waved her claws lightly and slapped the giant gray wolf away, causing it to hit the wall nearby and it took a long time to fall down.

Photographing wolves is like hanging a painting!

"Wang Chaling? How did you get in?"

He had a cold expression on his face and his shirt was ripped. His body, which had looked rather thin before, now had bulging muscles and he had eight abdominal muscles on his lower abdomen.

Is this, Guo Fan?
Wang Chaling's gaze fell on Guo Fan's chest, where there was a photo tightly attached. It was Guo Fan's selfie... probably.

Because if you look carefully, you will find it.

The person in the photo didn't look that similar to Guo Fan, and as his chest muscles trembled, the photo also trembled.

Very...eye-catching!

Guo Fan's eyes swept over the giant gray wolf that had just landed, and the corner of his eye couldn't help but twitch.

Just now, he used "hypnosis" and clothes explosion to finally knock the giant gray wolf out, which took a lot of effort.

As a result, the moment he went down, he was knocked unconscious by the tiger next to Wang Cha?

This……

Is the gap so big?

Guo Fan, whose clothes were torn and he looked like a muscular man, was now in deep confusion and self-doubt, but suddenly, he felt a chill.

This feeling is very familiar.

That's... the feeling of being coveted!
Guo Fan's muscles tensed up and he looked down subconsciously, and saw that the ghost messenger Lao Fan from the first floor had walked to the center of the hall at some point, just in a position where he could look up and see him.

There was clearly no white in those pupils; they were completely black.

But from these eyes, he saw deep covetousness and desire!

Guo Fan's anus tightened, "Fuck! Isn't this the same look it gave me in the store before, and even more so the look it gave Fang Shiming before?"

After confirming through eye contact, I feel like he is the right person!

The ghost messenger Lao Fan seemed to have found his life goal. He turned around and walked towards the stairs. But even after turning around, his head was still fixed in the direction of Guo Fan, and his eyes were staring at where Guo Fan was.

This is clearly the rhythm of swallowing Guo Fan alive!

Not to mention Guo Fan, even Wang Chaling, who was in a third-party position, could feel the ghost catcher Lao Fan's aura of "I will definitely get you!" It was amazing.

Think about the previous "love triangle" between the ghost catcher Lao Fan, Fang Shiming and Wang Xiaoming, this ghost catcher Lao Fan is clearly a scumbag!

A sentence popped up in his mind: "Is your store so messy?"

Guo Fan's face turned pale, and he turned and walked away, while subconsciously shouting, "Old Fan, don't chase me, I want to be the store manager's man!!!"

Such shouts naturally have no deterrent effect on the ghost catcher Lao Fan.

Don't underestimate him as a security guard. In fact, he is still a terrifying ghost. It's just that Lin Yuan forcibly changed his killing patterns and supernatural manifestations.

It will also act according to the changed killing rules.

And now, without Lin Yuan's orders and arrangements, when it discovered that its own puzzle piece appeared nearby, it would naturally take it back as soon as possible.

However, Wang Chaling seemed to have been hit hard again. He looked at Guo Fan who was gradually disappearing in disbelief and murmured, "Good fellow! So Guo Fan wanted to be the manager? This Peace Hotel is too chaotic. There is actually more than one scumbag?"

Wang Cha Ling was deeply shocked, and before he could react, there was a sudden sound of breaking air above his head.

When he looked up, he saw a piece of wood as thick as his arm falling towards his head. But how could such a piece of wood fall in this old house?

The reaction speed of an ordinary person prevented him from completely avoiding the wood, and his arm was scratched and began to bleed.

There was a stinging sensation, and before he could process it, the floor beneath his feet suddenly sank.

He looked down and saw that the originally solid floor had somehow become rotten and broken. It looked like the wooden floor had fallen into disrepair, which was why it was like that.

Everything is so natural and normal.

But how could Wang Chaling believe that this happened naturally?

After pulling his leg out, he didn't care about anything else and limped upstairs.

really.

After he performed these actions, he never encountered a similar situation again, which made him smile bitterly in his heart, "I don't know if He is too stingy and punished me like this because he heard me making up stories about Him, or if He wants to drive me deeper into the old house and make me participate in this game. I hope... it's the latter."

He is so terrible.

So far, even Wang Cha Ling's greatest reliance, the first and second generations of the Wang family who had been rampant since the Republic of China period, have no power to resist under his supernatural powers, and their appearance and supernatural manifestations have been directly changed.

Such power makes people fearful and also... yearning for it.

If a person with such power were a stingy person, it would be really troublesome.

……

Seeing Wang Chaling reluctantly going upstairs, Lin Yuan couldn't help but smile, "This kid, do you really want to stay out of it? If I don't put some pressure on you, you really dare to slack off the whole time! However, there are only three ghosts around him. There are four ghosts in the first and second generations of the Wang family. What's missing is... Wang Lu! Is he still lost in the old house now?"

Lin Yuan's eyes lit up, he glanced at the pendulum clock beside him, then left without looking back.

For ordinary people, the pendulum clock is hidden very deeply and it is impossible to get it, but for Lin Yuan, it is just a waste of energy.

"There are enough puzzle pieces in the Peace Hotel. Although they are not enough to achieve a balance with the White Mist Ghost Domain, they are enough to support me in reality for a period of time, and I can use my supernatural powers to a limited extent."

It is also because of this that Lin Yuan was able to discover more ways to use the White Mist Ghost Domain.

Supernatural erosion.

Awareness shelter.

Of course, a reboot is also necessary!
The scope of the restart was experienced as early as when the virtual game first appeared in reality, that is, in ZS City.

It took several hours to restart the range, and it was far from the limit of the White Mist Ghost Domain. It was just the limit that Lin Yuan had to limit under the suppression to avoid the balance being completely broken.

otherwise.

At that time, the virtual game would not have ended so hastily.

But now?

As powerful ghost riders move into the Peace Hotel one after another, terrifying ghosts are incorporated into the puzzle of the Peace Hotel one after another, and the gap between the Peace Hotel and the White Fog Ghost Domain is constantly narrowing.

In this situation, the limit of the power Lin Yuan can mobilize is constantly increasing.

This time.

Lin Yuan rejected the power of the pendulum clock and used the power of the white fog ghost domain to restart. He wanted to find Wang Lu who was lost in the past on the past timeline.

This process is not long, but it is somewhat complicated.

The pendulum clock in the Wang family's old house completely divides time. Every minute, even every second, represents a different spatial dimension.

In the spatial dimensions corresponding to some times, there are terrifying evil spirits imprisoned.

The spatial dimension corresponding to some time is empty and there is nothing.

Every time Lin Yuan restarts, he needs to search in this old house and fill the entire old house with the white fog ghost domain, so as to ensure that no place is missed.

One second, two seconds... five seconds...

One minute, two minutes... five minutes...

One hour, two hours... three hours...

"found it!"

When the time reached the spatial dimension corresponding to three hours, twenty-three minutes and fifty-seven seconds, Lin Yuan stopped here, came to the railing on the second floor, and looked down.

Wang Lu's ghost was wandering in the hall on the first floor.

Or.

It was a ghost that looked exactly like Wang Lu and was cursed by the Wang family. It was a ghost that had once been rampant for an era!

It just wandered around the hall without any consciousness, just carrying out the orders given by Wang Chaling, but couldn't find the way back.

"This is also a good anchor point. Although it has some flaws, it is sufficient for the time being. I just don't know if the Wang Lu summoned by He Yin'er is another one."

Lin Yuan murmured in a low voice, and the white mist of the ghost domain surged, instantly submerging Wang Lu.

when!
when!
when!
The bell rang again, and He Yin'er escaped from a cage holding Tong Qian. Behind them, there were densely packed snakes as thick as arms, rushing towards them like a tide.

"There's no escape, there's no way out, and entering other cages will also be a dead end." Tong Qian sounded very weak.

On her shoulders, the Smiling Cat and the Crying Cat, who should have been able to perform their magic in such an environment, had become listless and in a coma.

He Yin'er's face was grim. "I thought there was no danger, so I didn't bring many things. Now I have used them all... No, there are still one... two things left!"
