I open a restaurant in Mysterious Recovery

Chapter 467 Delivery Zhang's new plan, madness before death

"You are right."

Zhang Xianguang did not stay any longer. He stood up and walked into the shadows. When he appeared again, he was already in a cafe opposite the branch.

Nie Yingping picked up the steaming coffee, but it quickly cooled down and even formed a layer of ice. He then handed it to Zhang Xianguang, "It looks like you failed again. He Yuelian's upbringing was very complicated, but now it has become a help for her thinking. If it was a simple little girl, maybe it would be easier to handle."

"If she didn't have any ulterior motives, the manager wouldn't have let her open a branch." Zhang Xianguang took the coffee and drank it all in one gulp. "Although people's minds are hard to figure out, as long as we persevere and influence her subtly, she will one day do what we planned. Besides, she may not be without any ulterior motives now."

Nie Yingping nodded and said, "You're right. Should we add fuel to the fire? Doesn't she want to proceed step by step? If Liu Qingqing's progress is faster, it should make her feel a sense of crisis."

Zhang Xianguang thought for a while and said, "We can give it a try. I haven't been to the Peace Hotel for a while, so I should go and show my face. After all, I haven't been having a good time recently in the Ghost Post Office."

Ever since the Babayan Peach Blossom Spring incident in Shuangqiao Town, everything seemed to have returned to normal, including the Ghost Post Office.

But actually?
There was nothing wrong with the simple plan being exposed. The so-called Peach Blossom Spring was no longer a secret. What really made Zhang Xianguang sad was that his identity as an administrator in the Ghost Post Office was exposed.

Before all this, Zhang Xianguang had been living in the oil painting, and together with the ghosts in the painting such as Yang Xiao, they were also believed by others to be the ghosts left behind after Zhang Xianguang passed through the Ghost Post Office.

But now?

His identity as an administrator was exposed, as was his lack of supernatural powers. He relied on the contrast with Yang Xiao as a deterrent and pretended to be a top master.

This also led to his days in oil painting being targeted.

But there is also good news, that is, he attracted a group of dead souls during the Peach Blossom Spring incident. Although they have now returned to the oil painting, with them around, Zhang Xianguang will not be left alone.

But it is impossible to continue living in an oil painting.

After all, even the ghosts he had won over were thinking about taking revenge on him. After all, the plan was abandoned halfway, which put them in a passive position.

As a result, during this period of time, Zhang Xianguang could only live in the administrator's room on the sixth floor and did not dare to go to the oil painting world at all.

It just so happened that during this period of time, Yang Xiao's eldest son Yang Jian was still helping Sun Rui deliver letters, and it was obvious that he was aiming for the position of administrator.

If Sun Rui really did it, his advantage as an administrator would disappear and the situation would become even more difficult.

Nie Yingping glanced at him and suddenly said, "Shuangqiao Town doesn't care about it? There has been no news since Zhang Xian left, and the ghost cage is still in his hands. If he causes any trouble, it will be difficult to explain."

explain?

Zhang Xianguang, or rather his spiritual light, glanced at Nie Yingping and said thoughtfully, "Zhang Xian's talent is mediocre. His current strength is already very good. Let him do what he wants. After working hard for most of his life, he was told to give up these decades of hard work. No one can accept it."

Nie Yingping said, "That's right. If my time is up, I might not be able to accept it. But what about you? How much time do you have left?"

"Don't worry, I still have a while to live. I won't die so soon. When Zhang Xian passes away, I will go back and erect a monument for him. This way, my life won't end so hastily."

"Ah, I'll go see him off then."

The two left quickly, but they did not leave Dahai City, but left reality. They went to the Ghost Post Office through the letter paper to find Zhang Xianguang in the Ghost Post Office to discuss the next steps.

The news of the opening of the Peace Hotel branch in Dahai City quickly spread in a small area.

Although it is just a scene of ordinary people eating, there are still many ghost riders who come here. However, there are significant differences between most ghost riders and ordinary people.

Judging from their appearance and clothing alone, they look like a group of non-mainstream people or COSERs, and many ghost riders have various smells, including the strong stench of corpses.

What will happen if a restaurant smells like a corpse?
The hall, which was originally quite lively, soon became deserted... No, it should be said that there were only a few ordinary people. Sitting on the few tables were all ghost riders.

"Is this a branch of the Peace Hotel? It's not that great. There's no white fog or ghost area, and no sense of oppression. It feels like an ordinary hotel. Could it be that some bold guy dared to open a store in the name of the store manager?"

"It's possible. After all, this store does business with ordinary people, and they spend so much money on advertising. It's obvious that they are trying to make money from ordinary people. But does the store manager need money from ordinary people? Maybe this is some blind guy who is taking advantage of the opportunity to make money!"

"If that's the case, then that's stealing the manager's hard work! No, I'm such an upright person, how can I just watch this happen?"

"That's right! Even if the store manager doesn't know the situation here, we still want justice for him!"

"That's right, we must help the store manager and dedicate this place to him!"

"Oh! What's the point of asking for justice? It's nothing more than trying to take the opportunity to please the store manager. But does the store manager really care about this?"

A group of people were making a lot of noise, but it was obvious that many of them were ready to take action, as if they really wanted to tear this place down as a gift to the "store manager".

Those who can sit here have all been to the Peace Hotel, eaten there and spent money there. They are obviously well aware of the terribleness of the Peace Hotel and the "store manager", as well as the benefits of being favored by him.

Although it was just a small shop that was stolen from him, it was unlikely that he would notice it after I cleaned it out, but what if?
It was just a matter of convenience and didn't require much cost, so there was no need to be polite. So, some people started to take action.

Some people even directly pointed the finger at Boss He.

Boss He was horrified, not knowing how things could turn out like this. When he was lifted up by a ghost rider by the neck, he began to struggle violently, "Daughter, save me!"

"No one can save you. You dare to open a store in the name of the store manager. Everything you have will be taken away from you as a gift to the store manager!"

The man smiled grimly, but suddenly, he felt something was wrong around him.

It was still noon at this time, and the sun was high in the sky. Even without turning on the lights in the store, the store would still be very bright. But suddenly, the surroundings became foggy and even gray, and snowflakes were falling.

Do not!
It's not snowflakes, it's paper ashes!!!

"This is... a ghost painting!" A ghost rider recognized the ghost realm of the ghost painting and screamed in horror.

"Ghost painting? The paranormal event ranked first on the list of evil spirits? How is it possible? Aren't ghost paintings overseas? When did they get to China?"

This group of ghost riders suddenly panicked and didn't care about Boss He anymore, they all fled outside.

It's a pity it's too late.

He Yuelian, wearing a red wedding dress, red embroidered shoes, and even a red veil that was tightly covered, slowly walked down from upstairs.

Each of her steps made a dull sound, stepping on everyone's heart.

"The ghost...is coming!"

Some ghost riders spoke in horror, but some others did not believe in it and attacked He Yuelian directly... A minute later, He Yuelian's sight penetrated the red veil and fell on the field.

At this time, a dozen ghost riders were lying on the ground, wailing in pain.

"This is the Peace Hotel, not a place for you to act wild. If you want to eat, pay. If you don't want to eat, get out!"

He Yuelian's voice was extremely gentle, but to everyone's ears, it sounded as cold as below zero.

Only then did everyone realize that it was not that this place was too ordinary, but that they had not entered the real Peace Hotel branch.

Moreover, the woman who was sent by the "store manager" to guard the branch store could actually completely control such a terrifying ghost as Guihua. It was simply too terrifying!

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk! You are so impressive! Why didn't I realize before that you have such strength?"

A familiar teasing voice sounded. He Yuelian looked at Liu Qingqing walking in from outside and was about to say something sarcastic back when she saw Lin Yuan who also walked into the store.

When the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back instantly, almost as if they were the quintessence of Chinese culture.

He Yuelian lifted the red veil, revealing her perfect pretty face. The coldness on her face was gone, and her smile was as gentle as a summer flower. "Brother Yuan, Xiao Liu, you are here."

"Well, isn't today the opening of the branch? Of course I have to come and take a look. What's going on with these people? This should be a place for ordinary guests to dine, not a place for these animal trainers to dine." Lin Yuan frowned slightly.

He Yuelian quickly explained: "Brother Yuan, these people are here to cause trouble."

As soon as these words were spoken, the ghost riders on the ground suddenly became anxious. They were all guests who had been to the Peace Hotel. Naturally, they knew the rules of the Peace Hotel and knew how terrifying the "store manager" was.

Now He Yuelian's words "troublemakers" clearly indicate her intention to throw them into the abyss!

This woman's heart is so cruel and vicious!

However, they had no way of explaining at this moment. The supernatural power of the ghost painting could not stop them from speaking, but there was an unknown force that made it impossible for them to utter even a word even if they opened their mouths.

Some people became anxious and kept covering their mouths and throats.

Some people, however, looked desperate, because they understood the reason and knew that the "store manager" did not want to hear their explanations or talk, so there were such restrictions.

Someone went crazy and crawled up from the ground and rushed towards Lin Yuan. His ferocious face looked as if he wanted to tear Lin Yuan to pieces.

"Be bold!"

Liu Qingqing let out a low shout, and an arm with a metallic luster stretched out from behind her head and grabbed the man's head in her palm, just like grabbing a marble, and then lifted it up easily. No matter how the man struggled, it was of no use.

Then, a robot nearly two meters tall walked out from behind Liu Qingqing.

I don't know how he managed to hide his height just now.

Lin Yuan's face had completely darkened, and he said calmly: "According to the previous rules, since you are here to cause trouble... No, you should come here to eat a free meal, right?" He Yuelian understood and said quickly: "Brother Yuan, you are right. Not only did you eat a free meal, you also damaged a lot of things in the store. You need to pay for these."

"Today is the opening of our branch, and it's also a very important day. I don't want to go into it too much. According to the previous rules, we will take away the domesticated beasts as compensation. If any of you can come up with the money, you can redeem these beasts." After Lin Yuan finished speaking, he walked upstairs.

The next step will be done by Liu Qingqing and He Yuelian.

But He Yuelian stopped Liu Qingqing, "I'm the person in charge of this branch, just leave it to me."

"Ah, can you handle it?" Liu Qingqing asked doubtfully, but the robot dropped the person in its hand. "Forget it, I won't snatch your chance to show off. I'll go upstairs to accompany Brother Yuan first."

He Yuelian frowned, and suddenly found something wrong, "Liu Qingqing, why does your cheongsam look... a little different?"

The red cheongsam was the first supernatural item that Liu Qingqing wielded, and she wore it for several months.

He Yuelian has also been watching it for several months, hardly missing a few days, but today this red cheongsam gave her a very different feeling.

It's like, it's like...

died!

That's right, dead.

It is incredible to use such a word to describe a cheongsam. After all, cheongsam is a dead object, so how can it be described with such a word?
But the cheongsam on Liu Qingqing is different. When she wears it, the bright red color looks like blood flowing, giving people a feeling that "it is alive".

But now it’s different.

At this time, the red color of the cheongsam seemed to have faded a lot, and it no longer had that feeling of blood surging. It seemed to have completely lost its spirituality and turned into just an ordinary piece of clothing.

Is this dress really dead?

He Yuelian frowned, and suddenly looked up at Liu Qingqing, and happened to meet her watery eyes. At this moment, she suddenly felt a chill in her heart, and her whole body tensed up. She said in a deep voice: "You are not Liu Qingqing, you are... Zhang Youhong! Liu Qingqing's eyes are direct and fiery, unlike yours, which actually gives people a gentle feeling."

"Can you tell the difference just by looking at me? It seems my disguise is really a failure. But it doesn't matter. I'll wait for you upstairs."

Liu Qingqing, no, it should be Zhang Youhong.

She waved gently at He Yuelian, then turned and went upstairs. Her every move exuded the feeling of a lady from a noble family during the Republic of China period.

Add to that the red cheongsam, red high heels, and the long black hair tied up, it's as if a woman from the Republic of China has come from the past to the present, making it hard to look away.

He Yuelian's heart was in turmoil.

"What's wrong with Liu Qingqing? Why did she let Zhang Youhong out? And what's wrong with the store manager? Why didn't he take any measures against Zhang Youhong and instead let her get along with him?"

He Yuelian felt very complicated, but now was not the time to think about this matter.

There were more than a dozen ghost riders on the ground, and she was too lazy to say anything more. She who controlled the ghost painting was no longer the powerless tool whose life and even her appearance were controlled.

Now, even without the protection of the "store manager", she already possesses strength that surpasses most ghost riders. This is her confidence.

"Leave all your ghosts here."

He Yuelian raised her hands towards the ghost riders under her feet and waved them gently a few times, and then something strange happened.

Even more painful wails were heard, and all the Ghost Riders lying on the ground let out heart-wrenching roars, but they had no power to resist.

It seemed as if something was forcibly torn out of their bodies.

That is the ghost they control.

Some were one, some were two, all of which were summoned out of their bodies by He Yuelian using her ability to summon ghosts. "The ability of the ghost wedding dress is really useful. It can be used to deal with Liu Qingqing's wooden man."

In He Yuelian's heart, there is only one great enemy for the time being, and that is Liu Qingqing who possesses the remnant soul of Zhang Youhong.

future.

It still depends on who will win!

But Zhang Youhong can't do that.

"What on earth is Liu Qingqing thinking? Could it be that she thinks a ghost from the Republic of China era, an old monster who wants to live again in her body, will sincerely help her? What an idiot!"

He Yuelian felt a chill in her heart and kicked the former Ghost Rider at her feet who didn't even have the strength to get up.

boom!
With a dull thud, this man, who weighed about 160 to 170 kilograms, was kicked lightly and flew out of the door of the Dahai City branch and out of the ghost realm of the ghost painting.

Meanwhile, on the street outside the branch.

The street, which should have been bustling with people, was now deserted. The nearby streets were blocked by the supernatural forum and no pedestrians were allowed to enter.

The reason was that the Dahai City branch of Peace Hotel caught fire and fire rescue was needed.

Fortunately, the ghost domain in the ghost painting is somewhat similar to the smoke after the fire, which can barely convince some ordinary people who are unwilling to use their brains. As for what other people think, Awu no longer cares.

He is now in a store opposite the branch, looking at the Peace Hotel branch opposite with a serious expression.

From his sight, he could see that the entire branch had turned gray, forming a sharp contrast with the surrounding buildings.

That feeling.

It's like on a color TV screen, suddenly a black and white pattern appears, which is very conspicuous, or even dazzling.

"Fortunately, He Yuelian knew her limits and did not wantonly expand the ghost realm of the ghost painting. Otherwise, the entire Dahai City would have encountered another round of considerable trouble."

Ah Wu has never personally experienced how terrifying ghost paintings are, but he is well aware of the threat posed by such supernatural events that require the intervention of the "store manager" to suppress.

hard to imagine.

Such a terrifying ghost could actually be perfectly controlled by an ordinary woman, but when you think about the fact that a deliveryman spent decades planning it, and the fact that this woman was a clerk at the Peace Hotel, everything seems so natural.

At this moment, from the gray world, a figure flew out like a cannonball, fell heavily to the ground, and splashed up a cloud of dust.

Awu's face changed slightly, but before he could make any move, people flew out one after another in the same posture.

Then He Yuelian also came out and stood at the boundary between the black and white screen and the colorful world, staring in the direction of Awu with an indifferent face.

Awu took a deep breath and knew he couldn't hide, so he had to stand up.

Also here were the few remaining ghost riders from the Supernatural Forum. They wanted to follow along, but were stopped by Awu. "Business people believe in making money through harmony. I'm not going to fight, so don't cause any misunderstanding."

Then, he came to the street, calmly walked past the dozen or so people who were almost silent, and stopped ten meters in front of He Yuelian. Just as he was about to speak with a smile, he heard He Yuelian say coldly: "I remember that we had a good talk before, but now you're sending people to test us?"

Ah Wu's face changed, and he quickly explained: "Manager He, please don't misunderstand, these people..."

"The Supernatural Forum controls Dahai City, and even the headquarters finds it difficult to intervene. Don't tell me you didn't know they had entered." He Yuelian interrupted directly.

Ah Wu's face changed slightly, and he didn't explain anything further. He just said, "Please rest assured, Manager He. I will give you an explanation for this matter."

"I am waiting."

After He Yuelian finished speaking, she returned to the store.

Ah Wu looked back at the ghost riders on the ground. Just then, other members of the supernatural forum came over and checked on the people on the ground. Their faces changed instantly. "They are not dead, but they are close to death. The ghosts they rode are gone..."

"This is the rule of the Peace Hotel. Take these ignorant fellows away. Send them to the hospital. It depends on their luck whether they can survive."

Having said that, everyone knows it.

These people have been controlling evil spirits for quite a long time and have been deeply eroded by the supernatural. Although their condition was pretty good before, without the support of the evil spirits' power, death is only a matter of time.

"A bunch of idiots, how dare they go to the Peace Hotel to cause trouble? They don't even think about how many people in the Peace Hotel would dare to pretend to be the manager? Do they really think they are the smartest people in the world?"

"Perhaps, he has no choice, so he is desperate to fight for the only chance."

Although the Peace Hotel is dangerous for ghost riders, it also represents vitality, hope for survival, and powerful opportunities.

But it's a pity.

Peace Hotel also pays attention to one word:

money!
If you have money, you can buy the corresponding services here, and you can even ask the "store manager" for help.

But what about people who have no money?
In front of death, you have to wait for death to come just because you are poor. This kind of life...you might as well give it a try!
