I open a restaurant in Mysterious Recovery

Chapter 515: Protecting Animals and Ghosts, Awu's Cool Moves
【I am the Immortal of Wine】: Brothers! Good news! Peace Hotel has finally heard our voices and launched a wine that can make us feel drunk!
[Qiu San Sui]: Does it make you drunk? Are there any other effects? It should be very expensive, three yuan a jar? Not three yuan a cup, or three yuan a drop, right? An assassin among wines?
[Your Warmth is an Hourglass]: Damn it! I got fooled the first time I went there. The stir-fried seasonal vegetables cost three yuan per gram. I thought it was a whole plate, but it turned out to be a whole plate. I almost got stabbed to death!
[August]: You are done! How dare you mock the store manager here? Wait, I will go and tell on you!
[I'll be waiting for you in the past]: Haha! I'm faster, I've already set off!
[Qingcheng Buyuhua]: Come on, brother, how can you say bad things about people behind their backs? Let me do this kind of offensive thing, I'm good at it, really!
[Your warmth is an hourglass]: You bastards! Just wait for me!

[Master Ye from Dahai City]: What did you say? Wine? Boss Lin has something new? I have to go try it, if I can still get out.

There has long been a special section for the Peace Hotel on the Ghost Hunter Forum, and the number of posts here is increasing dramatically every day.

The news about the new wine at the Peace Hotel was also publicized here at the first opportunity, which also attracted many wine lovers to go to the Peace Hotel.

For ordinary or novice ghost riders, getting drunk is not a difficult thing.

But for the ghost riders who control two or even more ghosts, they have been deeply corrupted by the spirits, and alcohol has long had no effect on them.

Even if he could recover to normal state in the Peace Hotel, the problem was that there was nothing to eat or drink that could be brought into the Peace Hotel.

Food and drinks cannot be taken away!

This is news that the Peace Hotel has not made public, but it is also an unspoken rule that everyone knows. Now the Peace Hotel has finally launched its alcoholic beverages.

It means nothing to the ghost riders who don't like drinking, but to those who like drinking, or even are addicted to alcohol, it is the most wonderful news, nothing less.

So, even though it was only the morning, which should be one of the time periods with the fewest customers on weekdays, many customers came in one after another.

The leader was a very cute 1.4-meter-tall little girl. She rushed in first and rushed to the counter which was only half a head shorter than her. She pushed her hands hard and looked inside. "Boss Lin, I'm here to report... Hey, where's Boss Lin? Sister Xiao Liu?"

At the cashier counter, Liu Qingqing was working as a cashier.

This was originally He Yuelian's job, but she went to the branch to take charge of the work. In order to show herself, Liu Qingqing took over today's workload.

It's just that she's in a bad mood now.

Many guests came to the Peace Hotel, and most of them ordered wine as soon as they arrived. This was good news and could bring more revenue to the restaurant.

But Liu Qingqing didn't care about that at all.

Hearing the little girl's question, she said calmly: "Brother Yuan has gone upstairs to rest. What can I do for you?"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm here to report something. Someone said something bad about Boss Lin on the forum, saying that the stir-fried seasonal vegetables and the newly launched drinks in the store are assassins, like the ice cream assassin."

The little girl gestured seriously with one hand.

But even with only one hand supporting her body, she was very stable, because on the other side, a furry arm stretched out from her back, helping her to support the other side and prevent her from falling.

Looking along this arm, you can see a monkey head sticking out from her head, with golden monkey hair all over the body very dazzling, and the monkey tail constantly swinging back and forth.

If this is coupled with a stick, it can definitely be self-proclaimed:
Great Sage!

“I think that’s true.”

"what?"

The little girl was stunned and started to frantically gesture. Fortunately, the monkey behind her acted quickly and used his other hand to support her body again, thus preventing her from falling. "But, but... they are saying bad things about the store?"

"Although we run a store, we still have to stick to facts. The prices of fried seasonal vegetables and new wine are indeed a bit unreasonable. Everyone can raise objections, but they are also clearly marked. Even if some people think it is inappropriate, there are people willing to pay for it, right?" Liu Qingqing said calmly.

The little girl tilted her head and thought for a while, then said weakly, "Sister Xiao Liu is right, I was thinking the wrong thing."

Liu Qingqing's lips curled up slightly.

Among the ghost riders who come to the Peace Hotel every day, some are very annoying, while some are more likable, such as the little loli in front of you.

But, after all, he is just a passer-by.

"Do you want to be stabbed?" Liu Qingqing invited.

She was trying to attract customers. After all, she was ready to cooperate with Wang Chaling.

After opening a branch in Dadong City, as the store manager, she couldn't just let others do the work while she just sat back and enjoyed the results, right?

If this is really the case, and she cannot demonstrate her own value and strength, then there is no need for her to think about these things. She can just stay in the Peace Hotel and pursue the "store manager".

The little girl was startled and waved her hands. "No, no, I have something else to do. I'll leave first. Sister Xiao Liu, bye!"

Liu Qingqing didn't care. She just looked up at the ceiling and asked in her mind, "Do you think it would be effective if I take more initiative?"

Zhang Youhong's voice sounded, with a hint of resentment: "Are you still willing to believe me?"

Last time, she persuaded Liu Qingqing to cultivate her temperament and become a lady from a noble family in order to win the favor of the "store manager", but unfortunately.

Liu Qingqing's temperament has improved a little, but she didn't get much special treatment from the "store manager".

Even the "store manager" was still wondering if Liu Qingqing's mental problems had become more serious, to the point where the secondary personality was affecting the main personality. In the end, Zhang Youhong was banished to the cold palace by Liu Qingqing.

In order to prevent Liu Qingqing from really separating her remaining consciousness, Zhang Youhong could only stay quiet for a while.

Although he succeeded in calming Liu Qingqing down, he also made her feel suffocated.

"It's all because of this Peace Hotel. The supernatural power here can force this part of my consciousness to remain awake. Otherwise, under normal circumstances, I still need a soul-guiding incense to wake up."

Zhang Youhong felt extremely resentful, but she had no other choice but to take things one step at a time.

"explain."

Liu Qingqing uttered a word very calmly, with a cool and aloof tone as the main theme.

The corners of Zhang Youhong's mouth twitched, because this was the posture she taught Liu Qingqing, hoping to arouse the "store manager's" desire to conquer, but ended up being treated as a sickness by the "store manager"... Now, the knife she threw out ended up stabbing into her body.

Zhang Youhong took a deep breath, resisted the urge to knock herself out and said, "I suggest you don't do this."

"Reason?" Liu Qingqing continued to be cold.

Zhang Youhong was too lazy to think about it and said directly: "Because He is here, as long as He doesn't want you to, you will never succeed, and you will be hated by Him. I don't need to say more about the result at that time, right?"

Liu Qingqing was shocked and cold sweat broke out on her back.

She was so focused on conquering the "store manager" that she forgot that there was someone high above her who was watching over everything and controlling everything.

No, it should be said that this was her instinctive choice.

The one she recognized was always the "store manager", not that "Him" who was as unfathomable as a god, yet difficult to see!

But she had to admit that Zhang Youhong was right.

As long as He doesn't allow it, the "store manager" can do nothing.

"He is so high and mighty, yet he is so cruel to his other self, treating Brother Yuan like a puppet. Could it be that all true immortals and gods are so cruel that they don't even let themselves go? If I have a chance, I must save Brother Yuan and let him have a life that truly belongs to him!"

Liu Qingqing lowered her eyes, hiding her feelings.

After being in the Peace Hotel for so long, she had already learned how to conceal her thoughts. Although she didn't know whether it would be useful, she had no choice but to do so.

……

"Liu Qingqing is quite interesting. She actually divided me into two parts. One is the me after I became a god, and the other is the me that was separated from this me and only has the consciousness of an ordinary person, or the me before I became a god. She also thinks that it is the me after I became a god who enslaves the me before I became a god?"

On the third floor, Lin Yuan watched the scene on the first floor with great interest.

To her, no matter how exquisite and perfect all of Liu Qingqing's concealment was, it was as transparent as a mirror, and she could easily see everything.

Like three dimensions versus two dimensions.

In the two-dimensional world, the contents isolated in the box cannot be known to the outside world, but for the existence in the three-dimensional world, whether inside or outside the box, it is clear at a glance.

It's not just Liu Qingqing.

This is true for any employee of the Peace Hotel, whether they are ghost riders or evil spirits.

Only Meng Xiaodong, Zhang Bohua and other living Seven Elders of the Republic of China were given some respect by Lin Yuan. He would not completely turn them into puzzle pieces of the Peace Hotel while they were alive. He would only borrow their power to allow them to retain some "privacy".

And now.

Lin Yuan hid on the third floor and didn't even let the "store manager" out. It was not because he wanted to be mysterious, but because something happened in Dahai City.

"It's time for the previously scheduled master performer to return." Twenty or so ghosts are equivalent to twenty or so messengers who have passed the fifth floor of the Ghost Post Office. Their strength should not be underestimated.

With them roaming throughout Dahai City, any supernatural incidents were quickly discovered, but most of them chose to detain them personally.

Here, they may not be immortal, but their strength gives them enough confidence.

This made Li Jun and others who were watching them very satisfied. "This should be the purpose of the Ghost Post Office to train messengers. It is not to cause supernatural events to break out one after another and revive evil spirits, but to train top-notch ghost handlers who can solve a large number of supernatural events."

Ah Hong nodded, "Yes. I heard that Tian Xiaoyue and Zhang Xianguang were not the first managers of the Ghost Post Office. Maybe things would have been better when the first manager was here."

"The first administrator? Do you know who the first administrator was?" Yang Jian asked with a strange look on his face.

Ah Hong shook her head. "I don't know about that. Maybe your father...well, maybe Yang Xiao would know."

Yang Jian's face was calm, and he said calmly: "He didn't know before, but now, although the news has not been spread yet, some people should know it."

The information about Luo Wensong was told to him by... the human skin.

During this period, the style of human skin paper painting has become much more honest, thanks to the "store manager".

Yang Jian used the threat of "If you don't meet my requirements, I will sell you to the Peace Hotel, and at least I can get three yuan for you" to make the man behave himself.

Compared to "If you don't give me useful information, I will bury you 30,000 meters underground and never let you see the light of day again", the threat involving the "store manager" is obviously more effective.

Perhaps, this is because the "store manager" can completely make it lose its wisdom and turn it into a dead object, while deep burial can only make it remain dormant for a period of time.

anyway.

Taking this opportunity, Yang Jian also obtained a lot of secret information, such as information about Luo Wensong, the first manager of the Ghost Post Office.

If it weren't for the human skin paper, he would never have known that the corpse of the old man who chased him when he first encountered a supernatural event and was still an ordinary person was the dead Luo Wensong.

It is also impossible to know that the first manager of the Ghost Post Office was captured by the Peace Hotel after his death and became the watchdog of the Peace Hotel.

The current knocker has completed its own supernatural powers and evolved into the three (six) headed dog of hell, but it still has the posture of a watchdog.

At most, it has transformed from a domestic dog into a level similar to Roaring Sky Dog, but it still has not recovered its human body.

How could ordinary people know such secret information?

"Unfortunately, even the human skin paper doesn't know the origin of the store manager. But this is also normal. If the human skin paper can see through the store manager's origin, it means that the human skin paper is at least as terrifying as the store manager. How could it be so easily transformed into a parrot?"

"Can you tell me about it?" Ah Hong became interested.

However, what responded to her was Yang Jian's silence.

Ah Hong had no choice but to shut up and pretend nothing happened. At this time, Wei Jing said, "There should be nothing wrong with these dead souls. You don't need to watch them anymore."

Li Jun, Ah Hong and Yang Jian all nodded in approval.

In fact, they all knew that under the arrangement of the "store manager", it was impossible for these souls to have any problems, but without seeing it with their own eyes, they could not be sure.

This is a major event that involves the entire city of Dahai, and every link must be handled with corresponding caution.

Since there are no problems, it's time to withdraw.

Li Jun, A Hong and Wei Jing were going back to Dajing City to report the situation, while Yang Jian stayed behind. He also had to look after the dead soul Yang Xiao. As for A Wu, who was in charge of the supernatural forum in Dahai City, he felt a little strange.

"Brother Wu, isn't it a good thing to have someone to help deal with supernatural incidents?" a younger brother asked doubtfully.

Dealing with paranormal events also involves risks.

Even though we now have the Peace Hotel, which can solve the problem of evil spirits being resurrected, and you can also buy the ghost you want, and control the evil spirit without the risk of resurrection, it is a blessing for ghost riders no matter how you look at it.

But the problem is, that requires money!

Money is ghosts. A ghost can be exchanged for three yuan. Three yuan can buy a ghost, a service to suppress the resurrection of evil ghosts, or a dish...

This price is still a bit too expensive for a ghost rider who only controls one ghost.

Otherwise, the Peace Hotel today would not have maintained a daily turnover of around 100 yuan and would not be unable to achieve a qualitative breakthrough - it is not that there is something wrong with the Peace Hotel, but the overall environment is not good and the market is sluggish.

If potential customers don’t have money to spend, it’s useless no matter how good your service is, no one can afford it!

Therefore, for most new ghost riders, the Peace Hotel is just a dream that is out of reach, so they should just do what they are supposed to do in normal times.

In this environment, most ghost hunters still don't want to deal with supernatural events. This is the general trend.

"It's a good thing that there are people handling these supernatural incidents, but you also have to know that ghosts are now more valuable than before. In the past, a ghost could be sold for 100 million, or even 200 million or 300 million, but now ghosts have been hyped up to more than 1 billion! They are so unscrupulous in helping to handle supernatural incidents, how is this different from stealing our resources and digging our gold mines?"

Awu was not wrong, nor was he exaggerating. He was even a little conservative.

After all, there are only a few people who can take ghosts to the Peace Hotel for trading. Most ghost riders cannot go to the Peace Hotel, otherwise they will trigger the BUFF of eating a free meal and eventually die.

But compared to a ghost, real-life currency is easier to obtain.

Some ordinary ghost riders who have mines at home, or who have found gold mines in other people's homes, will try to spend money to buy ghosts, and then go to the Peace Hotel to spend money, to enhance their own strength and reach the point of self-sufficiency.

There are even normal people who, for various reasons, know about the resurrection of the evil spirit and the existence of the Peace Hotel.

In order to master extraordinary power and avoid the cost of obtaining this power, he is also trying his best to acquire evil spirits - especially after the opening of the Peace Hotel branch in Dahai City, which allows ordinary people to have contact with the "store manager". Even if the possibility is extremely small, it is better to be prepared.

Opportunities always come to those who are prepared!

As a result, the price of ghosts in the market is getting higher and higher, and there really is a feeling of "supply exceeding demand".

"If this continues, these extremely terrifying ghosts that make people feel terrified and desperate will eventually become protected resources, just like tigers and lions?"

That little brother feels that the world is a bit absurd, but at the same time, it is absurd in a way that makes sense.

Where there is demand, there will be transactions. It’s a simple truth.

For Chinese people, as long as there is a resource that cannot be captured without any means, once there is a target and benefits, no matter how dangerous it is, it will gradually become a protected resource.

"Market demand, it's a very simple truth. But you don't have to worry too much. Judging from the current situation, if there is no such trend, it will be a big problem. At least in this way, people will no longer have absolute fear and avoidance of supernatural events, but will have more desire and covetousness. They no longer represent despair, but hope and the future!"

Ah Wu exhaled and said, "To be honest, this is all thanks to the Peace Hotel and the manager. It is because of His appearance that this desperate world has been truly changed, and is filled with a future and hope."

"But if this continues, will there be one or more extremely powerful people in the future who will rely on their strength to surpass everyone else and then carve up land to become the king?"

The younger brother said this worriedly, and what he said was also the experience he gained from reading countless doomsday novels.

When strength becomes the main theme of survival, and if order is dominated by absolute power, what will the world become?
Can the dragon slayer really resist the temptation and not become a new evil dragon?
Ah Wu laughed and said, "You are overthinking this, because no matter how scary they become, can they be stronger than the Peace Hotel, or the store manager? Well, let's get to work. Forget about today, they helped us find a lot of hidden supernatural events, which is a great help to us. Starting tomorrow, everyone will work hard to deal with supernatural events, and I will ask Ye Zhen for instructions on the resources we get, and use them on everyone to improve everyone's strength."

"Yes!"

The young man agreed excitedly, no longer showing any of the fear he had before when dealing with supernatural events.

Awu watched the scene indifferently, then lit a roll of memory film in his hand. When he turned to leave, he suddenly heard the strange music in his mind again.

"what happened?"

Awu's heart skipped a beat, and he realized that the surrounding environment had changed. At the intersection not far away, an old black piano appeared out of nowhere.

The piano stands right at the intersection.

But at that intersection where people and cars were coming and going, no one noticed it, and no car came into contact with it, as if it was just a phantom, a mirage.

However, Ah Wu was as if facing a formidable enemy, his eyes flickering, "Damn it! Where did this piano come from? Is it the source of the music in my mind? How did it suddenly appear here? It came to find me... It's a curse... No wonder, the store manager's White Mist Ghost Domain didn't react, after all, He won't interfere in the fights in the 'human world', but He Yuelian hasn't appeared yet, and she was able to escape the perception of the ghost painting, so she obviously doesn't exist in reality. Since you dare to come, don't blame me, I will get rid of you today! If we were outside Dahai City, or if the ghost painting didn't cover this place, I would really be a little afraid of you, but now, just stay!"

He reached his hand into his head, then pulled hard and a long strip of film was pulled out.

This is his own memory. He wants to seal his curse about the piano and the sound, and then send it to the Peace Hotel for the "store manager" to listen to it.

If you have the ability, go and curse the "store manager"!
