I open a restaurant in Mysterious Recovery

Chapter 440 News about Ye Zhen, the return of Wang Lu and his wife

"Sorry for being late, I'm Takeru from the Psychic Forum."

A man in his thirties rushed over, saying polite words but with a stiff face. It was obvious that he was a ghost rider who was deeply influenced by the supernatural.

The atmosphere at the scene was a little stiff because of Liu Qingqing's mockery of Tong Qian just now.

Boss He smiled and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, Brother Wu has put in a lot of effort in setting up the branch store during this period, and has helped us save a lot of trouble."

After these words were spoken, Liu Qingqing's expression relaxed.

As long as it helps the development of Peace Hotel, even if it is just a branch, she will not embarrass the other party.

The group of people then successfully headed to the newly established branch, which was located in the city center. The surrounding buildings were no longer high-rise buildings, but mostly buildings from the Republic of China period, as well as small Western-style buildings.

This is also related to the geographical location and special experience of Dahai City.

Many buildings still retain the characteristics of that era, which is very convenient for He Yuelian.

Standing in front of a small building in the style of the Republic of China, Liu Qingqing, Tong Qian, and He Yiner all looked a little strange, but He Yuelian said calmly, "Since it's a branch store, I designed it according to the situation in the store, and basically retained the original style. This way, even if Brother Yuan comes to the branch store, he won't feel unfamiliar."

"That's true. Except that there aren't so many supernatural things here, it is exactly the same as the store." Liu Qingqing rarely expressed her approval to He Yuelian.

So does everyone else.

It cannot be said that this building is exactly the same as the Peace Hotel, but it can be said that there is almost no difference, and every detail has been restored to the greatest extent.

Especially the flashing neon sign at the door, which is very dazzling even in the daytime, attracting many people to stop and watch.

There were no ghost messenger, Lao Fan, and the two watchdogs at the door.

There are no wish-bringing cats or talking parrots on the cash register, no wax corpses nearby, and no evil spirits or supernatural objects such as scapegoats inside.

Even the corridors are covered with paintings one after another.

Looking at these scrolls, everyone's faces changed slightly, because these paintings have the breath of supernatural power, and the content of the paintings... He Yuelian said lightly: "These are all derivative paintings."

It is a derivative painting, and a derivative painting of ghost painting.

He Yuelian has now mastered the art of ghost painting and can activate the flying peach blossoms special effect, which adds a bit of brilliance to her looks, but is also extremely dangerous.

Add to that these derivative paintings, and it seems wrong no matter how you look at it.

Wang Chaling, who arrived a little later, was stunned when he entered the door. He looked at the constantly swinging pendulum clock with a changing expression.

"This is just an ordinary pendulum clock. The real pendulum clock is in the store. If you need it, you can actually buy it back."

He Yuelian and others have already visited the first and second floors.

As for the third floor, no one suggested going up for the time being. Then when they came out, they saw Wang Cha Ling standing at the door in a daze, so they reminded him.

Wang Chaling naturally knew that the pendulum clock was fake, but he just felt a little uncomfortable.

Although everyone was present, the summoning of the second or even first generation of the Wang family did not begin immediately, as He Yuelian still had some things to discuss with Awu.

There was not much taboo. Tong Qian, Wang Chaling and others were all there, and even Boss He, an ordinary person, did not leave.

The Peace Hotel is going to open a branch, and not in a supernatural place, but in a real city. The headquarters is also paying close attention to this matter.

He Yuelian did not hide anything and openly handed the project over to her father, allowing Boss He's influence to extend from Tai O City to Dahai City.

Thanks to the Peace Hotel as an excuse and the fact that Dahai City was in a state of disrepair, they were able to enter smoothly and no longer encountered as much rejection as before.

Even the headquarters took a tacit attitude on this matter.

As the local ghost-controlling force of Dahai City, the Supernatural Forum was an organization that once completely controlled Dahai City, making it difficult for the headquarters to intervene. He Yuelian also showed it considerable respect.

It's not that he's afraid, nor is it a habit from being raised like a canary for a dozen or twenty years. It's just that the nature of the branch defined by "Store Manager" Lin Yuan requires a lot of ghost riders to carry out the plan.

In Dahai City, only the Supernatural Forum has enough ghost handlers.

The specific adventurer system has not yet been released, mainly because the "store manager"'s mind is currently elsewhere and no corresponding system standards have been given.

But this did not prevent He Yuelian from reaching a cooperation with the supernatural forum first.

During the time when Ye Zhen was missing, Awu, the former head of Dahai City, naturally became the person in charge of the supernatural forum.

Awu did not object to He Yuelian's request.

In fact, the headquarters had already communicated with the supernatural forum about this matter in advance and reached some agreements in advance. Awu had also been to the Peace Hotel and knew how terrifying the Peace Hotel and its "store manager" were.

But he asked a special question, "I want to know where Ye Zhen went. He disappeared in the Peace Hotel. Don't you know anything about it?"

His eyes were fixed on He Yuelian.

He mastered the ghost painting and was the biggest beneficiary of the Peach Blossom Spring plan that had been planned for decades. He was also the first clerk to be released by the "store manager" to open a branch store and he also took the position of lobby manager in the Peace Hotel.

He Yuelian's position is undoubtedly very important, and she should know some information that ordinary people are not aware of.

That's right.

This ordinary person is you, Tong Qian, who knows nothing!

However, He Yuelian did not give Ah Wu a satisfactory answer. She shook her head and said, "He left with the owner of the manor and never showed up again. Has he been gone for one or two hundred chapters or two or three hundred chapters? I'm not sure. Of course, if you have enough evil spirits, you can ask Brother Yuan. Although he is an ordinary person, he seems to have special abilities. He can get some secret information and do some strange things."

Several times during the night the Peace Hotel was upgraded.

In just one night, some new buildings appeared, such as the Ghost Lake and Fish Pond, the Horror Manor and Vegetable Greenhouse, the commemorative coin exchange office, and the restaurant's store space was doubled.

In this situation, according to the "store manager", it was simply because the construction team was too efficient that this result occurred.

Although no one asked, everyone had some guesses in their minds.

The "store manager" also has the ability to tame animals. Not only can all wild beasts be tamed by him, but even supernatural objects can be made obedient by him.

Can ordinary people do this?

In order to make the life of the "store manager" easier, He also gave him something like a "golden finger", which is a secret that everyone tacitly accepts.

Ah Wu nodded helplessly. "I asked the store manager before, but the answer I got was that I didn't know. Now it seems that I don't know how to adapt. What if I can spend some money to buy information... spend money to buy information? This seems to be a business of your branch. It turns out that the store manager has been prepared so early?"

"Maybe. The branch's future work will still require your support. But this is also a good thing for you. You can exchange some imprisoned but not very scary ghosts or those that are difficult to control for resources to improve your adventurer level. This is much more cost-effective than exchanging them for real money." He Yuelian said.

And this is indeed the case.

Exchanging evil spirits for money is indeed the best choice for those who have just become ghost riders, see no hope for the future, and want to leave a sum of money for their family members to live a good life before they die.

But for Awu, and even the ghost riders at the headquarters, exchanging ghosts for resources is the best option!

Peace Hotel commemorative coins...

A scapegoat...

The chance of a ghost dying...

The number of times he easily controlled more evil spirits without any injuries or pain...

Even peeking into the secrets of the past...

The resources in the Peace Hotel are neither too much nor too little, and they are all very practical. They are like a ray of light in this desperate era.

A ray of hope in desperate situations.

After chatting for a while, Awu left in a hurry. Judging from his appearance, he was going to the Peace Hotel to find the "store manager" to inquire about Ye Zhen's news.

"I wonder what Ye Zhen's expression will be when he returns and learns about the situation in Dahai City." Tong Qian said.

Liu Qingqing glanced at her and said, "Ye Zhen has disappeared for so long, maybe he has already died. Why do you still have such high expectations for his return?"

"Ye Zhen is very strong and it won't be easy for him to die." Tong Qian said so, and it was obvious that she really recognized Ye Zhen's strength.

In fact, she was also a little unsure.

However, although Ye Zhen turned Dahai City into a territory for supernatural forums and always said some immature words, he did maintain peace in the area.

Dahai City is an international metropolis, and both its permanent and floating populations are among the highest in the world. In peacetime, this is an advantage.

But in the age of the revival of the supernatural, this represents great danger and countless supernatural events.

When Awu was still the person in charge of Dahai City, he was busy with various supernatural events every day. If it weren't for the appearance of Ye Zhen, Awu might have died in the supernatural resurrection.

And Dahai City will also occupy most of the headquarters' attention.

Tong Qian used to be just a small person in charge in ZS City and didn’t see much. But now, because of her position in the Peace Hotel, her status in the headquarters has also been improved. She gets more information, stands in a higher position, and sees more things.

Both publicly and privately, she didn't want Ye Zhen to die, and to die inexplicably.

"Now is not the time to care about an outsider. Can we start summoning the soul now? Wang Cha Ling has been waiting for a long time." Liu Qingqing said.

Wang Chaling smiled, he was not in a hurry.

I had little contact with the Peace Hotel in the past, or I was afraid to go to the Peace Hotel.

But now that he has chosen to have in-depth contact, what he needs to do is to get to know the Peace Hotel and everyone in the hotel.

Especially the four cooks who first joined the Peace Hotel, the relationship between them is quite interesting, maybe we can use it...

"These are the clothes my parents left behind." Wang Chaling took out the clothes that he had prepared long ago.

Now, in this branch that has not yet opened, only Wang Chaling, He Yiner, He Yuelian, Liu Qingqing, and Tong Qian are left.

Everyone else has left.

Boss He was the one who left most actively, and this was also his attitude towards the supernatural trap.

"Dad, with such a good opportunity, why don't we deepen our relationship? Times have changed. If we continue like this, the He family will be in danger." He Yuelian's brother, a middle-aged man asked in confusion.

Boss He shook his head and said earnestly, "This is the supernatural circle. They are a group of people who deal with ghosts. They are neither human nor ghost. It is unknown how long they can live. We need their strength, but we cannot become them. This is the foundation for the continuation of the He family."

"I understand, Father."

The man answered respectfully, but secretly despised him in his heart, "My father is old and has lost his ambition to make progress. He only knows how to seek stability. But in this era, where is the stability? If you don't make progress, you will regress. If you don't fight, you will die. If an illegitimate daughter can do this, why can't I do it?"

No one paid attention to the thoughts of the He father and son. In the room, He Yiner had already taken the clothes of Wang Chaling's father.

"It's not always possible to summon conscious souls every time you summon souls. You must be prepared for failure. At the same time, you must also be on guard against any unpredictable changes in the souls you summon. If anything happens, I will immediately stop summoning souls."

Let me be frank with you, He Yiner will not bring trouble upon herself.

"Of course." Wang Chaling nodded, "I still have a lot of relics from my elders, so it doesn't matter if I fail once or twice."

He Yiner glanced at him and said, "It's started."

The spiritual power of a necromancer was activated, and a cold aura emanated from her body.

Using the clothing of living creatures as a medium, there is a high probability that the souls of the dead can be attracted.

Along with the emergence of power, two blurry figures appeared beside He Yiner, and then the two figures quickly solidified and turned into the image of a couple.

In the lobby, everyone was staring at He Yiner.

They had never seen any method of summoning spirits, and they all had the same feeling at the same time:
Unbelievable!
This method truly breaks the taboo of life and death, allowing people who have been dead for many years to reappear in this world. Even if their stay is very short, it is enough to shock people.

This kind of summoning of spirits can even allow the dead ghost rider to possess the supernatural powers he had in his lifetime.

Even though doing so would shorten the time that the ghosts stayed in reality, the battle between ghost riders was always decided in a very short time.

How terrifying is this ability to summon spirits?
No one knows, but no one can underestimate it.

"The Wang Lu couple should be ghost riders from the same period as Chen Qiaoyang and Zhang Xianguang. They belong to the second generation after the Republic of China, and have had at least three encounters with the store manager. They died more than 20 years ago, when Wang Chaling was still a child. And during that period of time, they discovered the secret of the store manager's transformation from 'he' to 'Him', and from human to god?" He Yuelian's eyes flickered.

By inheriting and becoming a top ghost rider, she constantly enriches her experience.

Wang Cha Ling was excited. He looked at his parents who had reappeared, suppressing his emotions. At the same time, he looked at He Yiner with concern.

"Success."

After a short while, He Yiner's soul-calling ceremony was over and she spoke to inform everyone.

As she finished her words, the two illusory figures beside her became completely solid, like two living people, giving people a feeling of real resurrection.

"The time for summoning spirits this time is relatively short. Maybe it's because the medium is better, or maybe the supernatural powers of the two people when they were alive were not that scary. It's best to ask some key questions at once, so as not to waste my ability to summon spirits." He Yiner said seriously.

Especially the last sentence, he said it directly while looking at Wang Chaling.

It's not that her summoning of souls is without cost, it's just that this cost has not yet appeared. But Wang Chaling, does he really think that she can summon souls infinitely?

Even though she had the spiritual protection of the "store manager" to prevent her from dying from the resurrected evil spirit, the pain was still inevitable.

If this was not to inquire about the "store manager's" history, but simply to help someone fulfill a dream and summon the ghost of a loved one, she would immediately refuse.

Wang Chaling seemed too excited and didn't hear what He Yiner said at all.

Under his gaze, Wang Lu and his wife woke up as if they had been sleeping for a long time. They looked around vigilantly and were even ready to take action at any time.

But when they saw Tong Qian, He Yiner, Liu Qingqing and others, they realized their situation.

"I see. We have been dead for a long time. It should be more than ten or twenty years, right? Although I don't know what means you used to temporarily revive my husband and me, I still have to say thank you here." Wang Lu expressed his gratitude in a casual tone and politely.

Because he could clearly sense that the people present were basically top-notch ghost riders.

Only Tong Qian's strength seems to be slightly weaker, but the ability she can burst out is definitely extraordinary. When such people gather together, no matter for what purpose, he needs to put himself in the right position.

the most important is.

When they saw Wang Chaling, their son whom they had not seen for more than ten or twenty years, they felt a blood connection with him at first sight.

This is their son!
Moreover, after so many years, this kid is still an ordinary person. Even for Wang Chaling's safety, they have to consider it more.

"Dad, Mom, it's me, Wang Chaling. I have to disturb you for a while because of something. I will temporarily reveal your souls through the method of summoning spirits."

Wang Chaling suppressed the excitement in his heart.

Although he really wanted to reminisce with his parents, he knew that this was not the right time. At worst, he could just spend a lot of money to ask He Yiner to help him later.

Or, just ask the "store manager" to help!
Just like they said before, as long as there is enough "money", the "store manager" can fulfill almost all wishes like a god.

If He Yiner can't convince him, then go find the "store manager".

Anyway, what he lacks the least now is "money"!
"I didn't expect that you've grown so big in the blink of an eye. But you're still just an ordinary person now. Is that because you're still hesitating? You can't escape the fate of our Wang family."

Wang Lu's emotions also began to fluctuate.

He looked Wang Chaling up and down, and subconsciously reached out to touch him, but was stopped by He Yiner, "You are the reappearance of the dead who have died for many years. There are some taboos. Do not come into contact with the living people of this era, otherwise some accidents may happen."

Wang Lu withdrew his hand upon hearing this. "Are you the necromancers from Taiping Ancient Town? I have heard of your existence before I died, but the people there are too secretive and rarely active in the spiritual world, so I have never seen you. In any case, we have to thank you for our family's reunion. If there is anything we can help with, please let me know. My husband and I will never refuse."

His attitude was very good, which made He Yiner very satisfied, so she didn't say anything and left the time for communication to Wang Chaling.

Face is always given to each other.

The same was true for Liu Qingqing, He Yuelian, and Tong Qian, who were extremely curious about the "store manager's" past. They did not try to seize the opportunity for a son to communicate with the ghost of his father.

Wang Cha Ling nodded gratefully to the others, and then looked at Wang Lu again, "Dad, I've said before that the fate of our Wang family will end in my generation, and I have found a way now. In other words, you already knew this method and have encountered it before, right?"

Wang Lu frowned, "Can you explain it more clearly? The curse created by your grandfather's generation cannot be solved by anyone, unless..."

Unless it is the legendary god on earth, Zhang Dong!
Wang Chaling took out the notebook and handed it to Wang Lu.

Wang Lu took a look and said with some emotion: "Is this the diary I wrote in the past? I heard people say before that serious people don't write diaries. I don't agree with it, so I have been a non-serious person all my life. Although sometimes I don't have time to write, I have saved more than a dozen books. This is..."

A dozen diaries?
The people present looked at each other, then at Wang Chaling, with scrutiny in their eyes. Wang Chaling was also a little confused. He flipped open the cover and said, "We only found six books. Are some lost? And there is a problem with the content of these diaries. We can only see the content of the first one."

Wang Lu nodded, and while looking at the contents of the diary, he said: "The information I recorded involves many people's secrets. If it is exposed, it may turn many of our friends into enemies. But I don't want to destroy these diaries. If you read the complete diary, you may understand some of the things I did. In order to prevent information leakage, I made some arrangements to keep some of the notes in the diary in the past. As long as you master the power of range restart, you can get them back. This power is very rare, and only the top ghost masters in the supernatural circle can do it, but your grandparents can do it, so you should be able to do it now."

Wang Chaling shook his head and said, "This is the reason for this summoning. The information in the diary has been blocked."
