I open a restaurant in Mysterious Recovery

Chapter 542 Anchored in the past, Lao Yang’s illegitimate son?

After hearing the "Welcome~" from the Starving Ghost Lao Hua, all the ghosts obediently walked behind it and formed a long line.

Seeing this scene, Meng Xiaodong, Qin Lao, and Yang Xiaotian all had their eyebrows twitching slightly.

Lin Yuan was very satisfied seeing this.

Now the Peace Hotel has not opened yet, and these ghosts have no way to get in. Let's just wait for a while and deal with the things at hand first.

"Meng Po, you can take action now. I believe your future self will still be happy to come here."

"it is good."

Meng Xiaodong did not hesitate. A cold aura surged, and a blurry figure appeared behind her in a very strange way. Looking closely, this person seemed to be 90% similar to her.

The only difference is that there is a big age difference between the two people.

The figure looked very old. If he hadn't been in good spirits, he would have had one foot in the ground by now, instead of looking like this now.

The figure walked towards Meng Xiaodong, but when they were about to touch, a wisp of faint white mist appeared between the two of them.

Meng Xiaodong's pupils suddenly shrank. She reached out to touch the white mist, but an extremely cold feeling came over her, causing her to subconsciously retract her hand.

"This thing is terrifying. It can actually stop my supernatural powers from the perspective of time and space?"

Meng Xiaodong looked at Lin Yuan and said nothing.

"Sorry, I forgot about that."

In reality, Meng Xiaodong has been living in the Peace Hotel for a long time, more than a year.

Although Lin Yuan did not attack any living person, as long as she was in the Peace Hotel, he could borrow her supernatural powers, whether to travel between the present and the past, or to prevent the manifestation of similar supernatural powers.

Meng Xiaodong, who was born in the Gengshen year, used a power from the same origin, so naturally he would be easily influenced by Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan really forgot, and he didn't want to scare Meng Xiaodong. He has long passed the point where he needs to demonstrate his strength in this way.

Even in this time and space, his Peace Hotel does not have much fame.

But strength is his greatest confidence.

Moreover, compared with reality, he seemed to be more relaxed here, especially before he connected the channel between the Peace Hotel and the White Fog Ghost Realm, he didn't even need to worry about the problem of supernatural imbalance.

It’s just so cool!
The white mist dissipated, and the illusory and blurry figure finally walked into Meng Xiaodong's body. For a moment, countless memories appeared in Meng Xiaodong's mind.

When she looked at Lin Yuan again, her eyes became much more complicated.

Although it is the memory of her future self, she does not belong to the future at this moment. She is still herself. "I should be the one to say sorry, Boss Lin. I seem to understand why you do not exist in our memory. It is not because some major event happened that wiped out all the memories of you in the world and no one was spared. It is because you have not yet reached our past and have not communicated with our past self. How can there be a memory of something that has not happened? But this is also true. After all, even he does not have your memory. If there is really someone who can avoid being affected by your power, then there will be no one else except him."

After saying so much, Meng Xiaodong seemed to feel a lot more relaxed, as if a huge bunch of shackles had been removed from him.

However, the only response she got was Lin Yuan's indifferent smile: "Yeah, yeah, you guessed right, that's the situation."

This made Meng Xiaodong a little unconfident. "Did I guess wrong? Or did something really happen back then? What on earth is going on?"

She thought she had seen through the secret of Lin Yuan's past.

In this way, she could also slightly break the halo of "him" surrounding Lin Yuan, and help her figure out some of Lin Yuan's background.

You know, although the news that the Peace Hotel existed in the past history was analyzed by the headquarters and a group of ghost hunters, without the guidance of the virtual game and the records of Wang Lu's diary, no one can really confirm this, and it is just a guess.

And after this speculation came out, the maps in virtual games were basically placed in the past few decades, which also contained a kind of guidance and hint.

The more advanced the ghost rider is, the less likely he is to believe that his memory will be affected so greatly, and on such a wide scale, affecting the memory of the spiritual circle all over the world.

the most important is.

The man surnamed Zhang also could not give a clear answer, and did not even feel the slightest bit of abnormality. This is why Meng Xiaodong and the others still have some doubts about this.

The current experience suddenly gave her a flash of enlightenment.

They have no memory of the Peace Hotel, not because their own memories were affected at some point, but because the Peace Hotel itself has never existed.

Until now, the store manager Lin Yuan appeared and communicated with them. So after they go back, will they have any memories about the Peace Hotel and about him?

Grandfather paradox?

Although Meng Xiaodong is old and has always lived in Mingyue Community, she has not isolated herself and is aware of some very interesting theories.

Especially this theory involving her own supernatural powers, she understood it in great detail.

Perhaps, the manager of the Peace Hotel told a huge lie, but wanted to turn the lie into truth, completely imprint himself in the past, and move his own existence forward?
But will this affect the original development of time and space, and will it change what has already happened?
Meng Xiaodong had a lot of questions to ask, even though she knew more and more now. However, Lin Yuan's calm demeanor made her feel a little confused and uneasy.

"Boss Lin, am I wrong?"

Meng Xiaodong suddenly felt a little uneasy, but Lin Yuan did not explain too much because he still had some problems to solve.

There is also a classic explanation for the grandfather paradox, which is parallel time and space.

Whenever such a theory that cannot be justified appears, just attribute it to a parallel universe. There is no need to waste too many brain cells.

Lin Yuan originally thought so.

Just like Mr. Qin’s supernatural power, he can choose a future he wants from countless futures by making choices again and again.

But do those futures that he didn't choose really no longer exist?

No, although those futures have not been described, they may exist in another time and space, which is the so-called parallel time and space.

He came from the "present" to the "past", leaving behind his own label, allowing him, who originally did not exist in the past, to truly come to the past.

Will this affect the “present”?
Of course, but if the "past" here develops into the "present" in another parallel time and space, does it mean that all paradoxes will not occur?

As long as this explanation is used, all problems can naturally be solved, but this is not what Lin Yuan needs.

What he needs is to walk the path to becoming a god that combines the past, present and future into one and achieves the only true self. To walk this path, parallel time and space, parallel universes, are all the biggest fallacies!

Time is a one-way street, not a river, and it has no branches.

Everything is moving forward on this line. Only by achieving what Lin Yuan wants and gathering together everything on this line of time can one become a true god, transcending life and death, transcending the past and the future!
If he wants to take this path, he will naturally have to deny the so-called parallel universe.

"If parallel time and space exist objectively, I am not qualified to deny it now, but I can do one thing, which is to gather a past and future that belongs to me. I will take one of the countless parallel time and space and use it as the foundation to build my foundation for becoming a god. I will completely gather the past and future on this line together and become the only true self."

"In that case, before I completely complete this line, I cannot truly break the boundaries between the past and the present, and between the present and the future. Otherwise, if something unexpected happens, that would be a real big trouble."

After figuring this out, Lin Yuan also knew what to do now.

"Would you like to sit in the store?" Lin Yuan asked.

Meng Xiaodong was stunned for a moment, looked at Lin Yuan with complicated eyes, and finally nodded.

Then Lin Yuan looked at Old Qin again, but Old Qin shook his head and said, "I won't go. I still have to watch the car here. The old man just now has a weird personality. If he really leaves, I'm afraid he will suddenly come back and smash the car."

Lin Yuan immediately revealed his concerns. "You're not saying you're afraid someone will smash your car. In fact, you're unwilling to go, or you're afraid to go, right? After all, your future self refuses to communicate with you. This alone is enough to make you think a lot."

Mr. Qin was silent for a long time, and then he stopped pretending and asked directly, "The person who gave me feedback just now should not be my future self, but you, sir?"

"You are really smart." Lin Yuan sighed, "You have guessed it all, right?"

Mr. Qin nodded and said, "My future self probably wouldn't want to live in the Peace Hotel, but you should be trying your best to invite me. Although I don't know the reason yet, I believe my future self has a suitable reason. In this case, please don't be offended."

"It's okay." Lin Yuan shook his head.

Finally, he looked at Yang Xiaotian, "What about you? Do you want to go to the future to see your son? And do you want to know what will happen to you in the future? For example, when did you die, what kind of woman you married, and what kind of son you gave birth to?" Yang Xiaotian did not answer immediately, but looked at Meng Xiaodong.

Meng Xiaodong shook his head. "Don't look at me. Without Boss Lin's permission, I can't and have no way to tell you all this."

Yang Xiaotian sighed inwardly, and then made a different choice from Old Qin, "Then I'll trouble you."

"It's not a problem. It's a good thing for me to attract new customers." Lin Yuan said with a smile, and then looked at Meng Xiaodong, "Sometimes, even if you see something, it may not be true. Memory is actually something that can be easily tampered with, as long as you have enough strength."

Meng Xiaodong hadn't understood what was going on yet, but Old Qin's face changed, a strange aura surged out of him, and his body quickly blurred and disappeared.

"Why don't you just be honest? Why do you have to play these little tricks? It's for your own good that I won't tell you everything in the future. But don't worry, I won't force you to enter the Peace Hotel. But since you don't want to go in, then leave all your memories here behind to avoid any trouble. My memories are not needed in this era for the time being."

Lin Yuan's pupils disappeared, replaced by a thick white mist.

In his sight, Old Qin's blurry body was instantly shrouded in white mist, followed by Meng Xiaodong, Yang Xiaotian, and everything around them.

Yang Xiaotian tensed his body instantly, ready to take action at any time, but the feeling of having his spiritual power suppressed came back again, and it was really suppressed to the point where he didn't feel anything at all.

It was as if he was just an ordinary person, not a so-called ghost rider at all.

His body relaxed again, and Yang Xiaotian understood a truth, "In front of Master, the power we have is just like that of a baby. No wonder Master's figure can appear in the past and the future, this should not be the power of a human."

"You are right. This is not a human power, but a ghost power."

Lin Yuan walked out of the white fog with the starving ghost Lao Hua. There was a wide avenue under his feet and a bus stop next to it.

Yang Xiaotian also noticed Meng Xiaodong standing next to him, "Is this the Peace Hotel?"

"It's just the bus stop outside the store. You have to walk in from this path and you will be there in a short time." Lin Yuan said as he took the lead and walked onto the path.

The watchdog, the starving ghost, Lao Hua, did not follow, but stood at the entrance of the trail, staring at Yang Xiaotian with his dog eyes.

Yang Xiaotian asked, "Where is Lao Qin? Did you kill him? No, he still exists in the future, so you couldn't have killed him. Did you just expel him? It shouldn't be that simple. You said that our era doesn't need your memory, so you erased his memory of you in our era?"

clap clap clap!
Lin Yuan applauded, "Yang Xiaotian, Yang Xiaotian, you are really smart. I am just the owner of a restaurant now. In business, harmony brings wealth. I will not force or embarrass guests. But at the same time, for guests who are unwilling to come, I will also take necessary measures when necessary."

Erasing a person's memory is naturally extremely difficult for ordinary people, but for the supernatural, there are many ways to do it.

Yang Xiaotian touched his arms, where there was a newspaper full of supernatural powers, and this was also the means by which he could change the memories of others.

One can even use this newspaper to completely transform a person, even a ghost rider, into one's own shape.

Lin Yuan was able to suppress everything he did, so it didn't seem unacceptable for him to do this. It was just that Qin Lao's strength...

"Don't think too much. His power has not been fully understood until now. What is certain is that it is far beyond that of ordinary ghost riders like us. Work hard to improve yourself. Coming here is your chance. Maybe you can even change your future." Meng Xiaodong walked past Yang Xiaotian with a soft voice full of kindness.

"Him? Even someone as powerful as you would call him that. It seems like this Mr. Lin is really scary."

Yang Xiaotian exhaled, then smiled bitterly, "Changing the future? How can it be that simple? He... He didn't even leave any memories to Old Qin, and if we can't even keep our memories, how can we change the future? But..."

Touching the ghost newspaper in his arms, some ideas suddenly came to his mind.

As they were talking, the two of them walked onto the winding path together. Yang Xiaotian also noticed that the ghosts that had followed the dog before had now turned into various types of animals?
"The Peace Hotel is just as its name suggests. Whether you are a human or a ghost, you must abide by the rules of the Peace Hotel when you come here. Of course, ghosts don't understand these things, and they can't even communicate, so in order to rationalize it, the manager turned them all into animals, corresponding to different animals according to their degree of terror and harm."

"This is the commemorative coin exchange office. One ghost can be exchanged for a commemorative coin with a face value of three yuan. The only denomination now is three yuan. This commemorative coin is used for consumption in the Peace Hotel."

"This is the Ghost Lake, which is used as a fish pond by the store manager. The fish, shrimps and crabs in it are actually various kinds of evil spirits. The number is unknown, but it is definitely no less than three digits, and it may have reached four digits."

"This is a paper sedan chair and its bearers. The store manager occasionally uses it when traveling."

"This path leads to a vegetable greenhouse. Sanyuan can go in and experience the fun of a farmhouse. I can't experience it, but it seems that many young people like it these days. Maybe they have been in big cities for too long and want to experience the so-called farmhouse fun."

"This is a portal that takes you to the Caesar Hotel in ZS City. Of course, it has now been changed to the Caesar Brewery and Caesar Brewery..."

Along the way, Meng Xiaodong acted as the commentator and introduced the location, briefing Yang Xiaotian on the situation in the Peace Hotel and confirming the information in his mind.

When Yang Xiaotian listened, he felt as curious as if Granny Liu had entered the Grand View Garden.

Turn ghosts into animals?

I have never heard of this kind of thing before. I only know that some older people with skills can put ghosts into certain objects to make supernatural props.

The same went for scissors, stools, doors, shovels, hammers, and even the newspaper in his arms.

But turning ghosts into animals... this is already changing the pattern of killing, right? Moreover, in this lake alone, there are hundreds or even thousands of ghosts whose killing patterns and forms have been changed?
When he thought of this, Yang Xiaotian felt his scalp tingling, but he also felt it was so natural.

If he was weak, he wouldn't be able to face people like them. It would be like adults bullying kindergarten kids, basically not even bothering to look them in the eye.

But when he heard the last introduction of the light gate, he suddenly stopped and said, "The future... the Caesar Hotel of your era?"

He drove the mysterious bus all over the country, and naturally he had been to ZS City.

The Caesar Hotel, which has been passed down from the Republic of China period, is a haunted place and naturally a place that the haunted bus often goes to.

"Don't even think about it. Do you think he would leave you such an obvious loophole?"

Meng Xiaodong's words destroyed Yang Xiaotian's luck, and at the same time wiped out the luck in her heart, "By the way, there is a 'store manager' in front of people. He is separated from him. He only has the cognition of a normal person, not the cognition of a ghost. Don't say the wrong thing when the time comes, otherwise..."

Otherwise, there is no explanation of what comes next, but Yang Xiaotian understood it.

But the look in his eyes when he looked at Lin Yuan's back became more and more strange. "This big guy, at first glance, looks like a scary black hand that has pulled the past, present and future into his plan, but now he feels like a great god who is playing with the world."

Anyway, we got to the store.

"Brother Yuan, you're back! Are you really... Um, Granny Meng? How did you come back with Brother Yuan? And, is this... Xiao Yang's brother? Does Lao Yang have an illegitimate child outside?"

At the cashier counter, Liu Qingqing was still sleeping when she heard the noise, but Zhang Youhong in her head reminded her and woke her up instantly.

But looking at the two people behind Lin Yuan, she unconsciously glanced upstairs.

She remembered that Meng Xiaodong did not go out after he came back in the evening, but she had not been downstairs for a while and had even dozed off, so it was normal that she did not see him.

After all, the Peace Hotel at night is still very scary.

The place was surrounded by white fog, and she could only avoid being shrouded by it when she had work arrangements. She returned to the store after delivering meals to Li Jun and others.

I don't know what was going on in my head at the time, but I took the initiative to replace the twins on the night shift and sat at the cashier counter.

Then, they kept listening to the heavy footsteps of Li Qingzhi walking back and forth in the white fog, which made people feel creepy. Fortunately, Liu Qingqing had already "demystified" Li Qingzhi, otherwise he would not have been able to fall asleep easily. It would have been a blessing if he hadn't been scared and ran back to the bed in the room upstairs.

It was not until the moment she saw Lin Yuan that she became completely happy, and finally understood that she was not here because she was too passionate and felt sorry for the little girl working the night shift, but because she felt that she might meet Lin Yuan.

Sure enough, good deeds will be rewarded!
And she seemed to have discovered the reason why the "store manager" and Granny Meng quietly went out in the middle of the night. Surprisingly... Lao Yang, a robot who looked quite mature, steady and honest, actually had an illegitimate child outside, and the child was even older than Xiao Yang looked.

It’s just that!

Big gossip!

Yang Xiaotian still looked like a normal person and looked 50% similar to Yang Jian. Without thinking about the past or the future, this was the only answer Liu Qingqing could think of.

Hey!

She ate this big melon first!

"Arrange a room for them and we'll talk about it tomorrow morning." Lin Yuan said.

Liu Qingqing quickly responded, "Okay, Brother Yuan, I'll arrange it right away... Hey, doesn't Granny Meng have one? Doesn't she need one too?"
