I open a restaurant in Mysterious Recovery

Chapter 545: Gengshen Year, the Old Man in the Ancient House, the Erased Lin Yuan?
"journal?"

Wang Lu looked at Lin Yuan in confusion, then shook his head and said, "I don't usually have this habit."

Serious people, who writes a diary?
Over the years, he has been busy dealing with supernatural events, taking his parents' ghosts around and showing off his power as the second generation of the Wang family. He has no time to write a diary.

Isn't it really funny to ask this question?
Although she had never seen this man before, he was able to easily control the ghost peddler and seemed to be very familiar with her family. He was clearly not the newcomer in the supernatural circle as she thought.

It's clearly a hidden great white shark!

For such a person, even if he just asked a question that had nothing to do with reality, it must have a deeper meaning. Wang Lu had a deep understanding of this.

Lin Yuan also shook his head and said, "Xiao Lu, you still have to write this diary."

Xiao Lu?

Wang Lu frowned. "My friend, you look about the same age as me. Isn't it inappropriate to address me like that?"

"It's okay, you'll know soon enough."

As Lin Yuan spoke, he revealed a gentle smile, but this smile gave Wang Lu and his wife a great sense of danger. Without hesitation, they immediately took a few steps back. At the same time, the ghosts of the Wang family's generation also stood in front of Lin Yuan and reached out to grab Lin Yuan.

It was obvious that he wanted to tear Lin Yuan into pieces.

"Really? He didn't even say a word before taking action. He's so decisive and cautious. No wonder he has such a fierce reputation in the circle."

Faced with the simultaneous attack from these two who were among the top ghost riders during the Republic of China era, Lin Yuan did not panic or even get terrified. Instead, he smiled even more happily.

But his smile was like a hammer hitting Wang Lu and his wife's hearts.

The next scene made them both furious.

I saw the white mist in Lin Yuan's eyes suddenly surge out and spread rapidly, completely devouring the two dead souls of the Wang family generation.

The connection brought by the blood curse disappeared the moment the white mist spread, which made Wang Lu almost crazy:

"Impossible! Dad and Mom have their own ghost domain, and their level of terror is only second to those few people. How could they be suppressed by a guy who suddenly appeared?"

“Now is not the time to pursue this matter. As long as there is life, there will be hope. Let’s go!” The woman was very calm and blocked Wang Lu who wanted to rush forward.

Wang Lu is not a person who acts on impulse.

Although he was unwilling, he knew that now was not the time to hesitate, so he immediately fled with his wife. He had no urge to go into the white fog to rescue his parents' souls.

Turn into a rainbow!

This special skill, which took a long time to be figured out by the new-age ghost handlers in the modern times when the supernatural is revived, is now just a regular tool for traveling in the hands of Wang Lu and his wife.

In the past, it was through this method that they were able to move around in the supernatural circle.

But in the past they used this method to hunt down others and made a great notoriety. But now the situation has changed and they are actually being hunted down by others.

Not only that.

Their movements were very fast, with almost no hesitation or delay, but despite this, the next moment after they made their choice, the white mist surged over and completely submerged them.

"Wang Lu, if you don't write a diary, then where does Wang Lu's diary come from?"

At the moment when his consciousness fell silent, Wang Lu heard such a voice, which also became his final doubt.

There was some chaos in Dadong City, but it was just a small chaos. After all, this kind of fog covering the whole city was not common in Dadong City, but it happened many times every year.

Moreover, the fog came and went quickly without causing much trouble, and everything returned to calm.

Even if the people in the Wang family's old house discovered that Mr. and Mrs. Wang Lu were temporarily missing, they did not worry too much, because Mr. and Mrs. Wang Lu often traveled and did not always tell everyone the news.

Anyway, it won’t be long before news comes that Wang Lu and his wife have killed someone again or caused some big commotion.

With the souls of the Wang family's generation still around, these forces that have been passed down for decades will not have anyone worry about the safety of Mr. and Mrs. Wang Lu, nor will they have any bad thoughts because of their disappearance.

But no one knew that a new mysterious place had been born along a road in the suburbs of Dadong City.

peace restaurant!

Unlike the Peace Hotel in reality, the Peace Hotel here does not have so many complicated buildings. There is no ghost lake or fish pond, no horror manor or vegetable greenhouse, no bus stop, no paper sedan chair, no ghost taxi, only a hotel, which is very simple.

As for the location of this mysterious place, players who have participated in the virtual game with Dadong City as the background will find that this is the location where the Peace Hotel existed for a period of time in the virtual game.

Lin Yuan walked into the store, followed by the ghost peddler, the Wang Lu couple, and the ghosts of the Wang family generation.

However, the eyes of these people, whether they were humans or ghosts, were already filled with thick white mist, just like Lin Yuan, with tassels.

"Three ghosts, two ghost riders, and a ghost bus. I have completely established my anchor point in this space and time. As long as I don't provoke that scary guy, there shouldn't be any problem. But..."

Lin Yuan glanced at the ghost peddler behind him.

With two cargo boxes hanging from the pole on its shoulders, it looked no different from an ordinary peddler walking the streets in this era, but that was not what Lin Yuan saw.

His eyes were full of doubt. "This guy was able to survive the defeat at the hands of Zhang Dong, and he was able to collect evil spirits all over the world, ready to go back and seek revenge, and he hasn't been defeated by the Seven Elders of the Republic of China yet? Could it be that he has some relationship with Zhang Dong, so that Zhang Dong let the water... No, it should be the sea?"

In the previous confrontation, Lin Yuan could sense it very clearly.

The ghost peddler of this era is the same as the one encountered in reality. Although his level of horror is terrifying, it is only for ordinary ghost riders.

When facing the white fog ghost domain, the ghost peddler had no power to resist at all.

This caused the inherent image in Lin Yuan's mind to begin to collapse, and he was also very suspicious of a certain situation in the legend. "This peddler has always wanted revenge, so it is impossible for him to dismember his own spirit when he died. If this possibility is the fact and history, then even if he is dead, he will think of his ghost to avenge himself. So there are only three possibilities. Maybe the ghost peddler does not have such a great origin at all, and the grudge between him and Zhang Dong is just a false rumor, or he has an unclear connection with Zhang Dong, so that Zhang Dong, and even the Seven Elders of the Republic of China, let him go when facing him, or his strength is indeed very strong, but Zhang Dong's strength is not as strong as imagined, but my strength is too strong..."

If it is the last possibility, then it would naturally be the most beneficial for Lin Yuan.

And he could feel that this possibility was actually the greatest, because he had dealt with many top ghost riders during the Republic of China period.

Except for Zhang Dong, he has the most intimate contact with all of the Seven Elders of the Republic of China. He is very clear about their strength, which is far different from his own!

And the Wang family that created the blood curse...

Born by the top bosses of the Republic of China to open up a new era, the top strong man who can drive the ghost ship away, Old Qin...

In front of Lin Yuan, they were as fragile as a newborn baby and had no ability to resist at all. In comparison, Zhang Dong’s strength did not seem as strong as imagined?

Lin Yuan's eyes flickered, and he seemed eager to try.

But in the end he still shook his head, "Anyway, it's only a month away from Zhang Dong's death, let's wait and see. When he died, he was the weakest, and Yang Jian has proved this. In everything, we should be stable!"

He remembers it.

During the mysterious resurrection, Yang Jian led a team of people to deliver a letter to Zhang Dong's old house in the forest. They experienced Zhang Dong's seventh day of death and also used ghost to invade Zhang Dong's corpse at that time, and then they were able to use the range to restart.

Although the ghost at that time was a complete ghost, it was impossible for it to have any impact on Zhang Dong.

But when this situation occurred, it meant that Zhang Dong’s strength at that time had indeed dropped to the extreme!

Later, when Yang Jian led the captain to the old house in the forest, he had a very clear understanding that if Zhang Dong's body could remain in this state, his ghost would not be able to invade the other party at all, let alone borrow the other party's power.

"As long as we take advantage of that opportunity to carry Zhang Dong's body to the restaurant and make it a puzzle piece of the hotel, it will be useless even if it revives later, because the hotel will always be more terrifying than it, and the power of its resurrection will become the source of the hotel. But there is also a possibility, that is, Zhang Dong deliberately gave Yang Jian a break, because Yang Jian is also the future he chose. However, if we want to avoid a head-on confrontation, this is the best opportunity and we can't give it up."

Lin Yuan made a decision quickly and prepared to continue walking towards the hotel with the two people and three ghosts behind him, but he stopped after taking just one step.

He turned around and looked outside the store.

A bus drove into the white fog and stopped at the entrance of the hotel. The driver was none other than Mr. Qin.

He sat in the driver's seat, looking at Lin Yuan through the open shop door with vigilant eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Lin was just in Taiping Town, and now he has come to Dadong City. And you actually have a shop here?"

"Ah."

Lin Yuan responded without comment, and then invited: "Would you like to come in and sit down?"

"No, I'm just passing by."

Old Qin shook his head and did not give Lin Yuan a chance to continue speaking. He forced the door shut before the bus had stopped for a full five minutes, then stepped on the accelerator and almost spilled the fuel tank.

The haunted bus erupted with a strong pushing sensation, pushing the ghost who had just stood up back into his seat.

Lin Yuan narrowed his eyes, "He went to find reinforcements? Forget it, I'll leave first, don't make any trouble here. As for this store... There are already so many anchor points, and the media have been planted. They can come here at any time. It's better not to have a possible direct confrontation with him."...

The haunted bus traveled alternately between reality and the haunted place, passing many stops along the way, but it just stopped and then drove on again, without paying any attention to the five-minute rule.

Fortunately, this rule is not an iron rule. The cost for Mr. Qin to violate this rule is not high and he can bear it without suffering any real harm.

However, along the way, many ghost riders in the car felt curious, confused, and even panic, fear, excitement, and so on.

"The last time a bus had this kind of problem was the time before... This time, I wonder if something unexpected has happened again. This land has just returned to peace, please don't let anything happen again. I don't want to experience the despair and pain of decades ago again..."

"Is it going to be chaos again? Hahahaha! Be chaotic, be chaotic. If it's not chaotic, there won't be any business in my mass grave, hehe! Hehehehehe!"

"The bus has a new driver? The new driver named Yang Xiaotian? This is a mess. No, I have to talk to Brother Qin. We can't let a young man take control of the bus. This is too ridiculous! I am more suitable. I am the most suitable driver..."

The bus sped along and arrived at a new mysterious place in the shortest time possible.

There wasn't even a bus stop here, only a dense old forest. When the bus stopped, Old Qin got off.

Without taking a closer look, he walked into the woods.

Everything in the woods seemed to be exactly the same, and there were no signs to confirm the direction, but Old Qin walked very firmly.

After walking a few steps, an old wooden house appeared not far in front of him.

This old house is a bungalow. If you don’t look carefully, you won’t notice it at all. You will only see that the door of the old house is closed, and two red lanterns are hung above the door.

The lanterns emitted a red light, which looked eye-catching and eerie.

Clearly, Mr. Qin had just gotten off the bus not long ago, but the mysterious bus seemed to have passed the five-minute time limit. It closed the door and started away.

And Old Qin has already arrived at the gate of the ancient house.

He didn't go up and knock on the door, but just stood at the door, as if waiting for something.

I don't know how long it had been, but the door creaked. It was the sound of the door opening, and a breeze blew out from the gap.

It was just a breeze, but it made Qin Lao's clothes rustle, and a foul smell came from it.

Old Qin's nose twitched, and he said solemnly, "Your health has deteriorated again."

"I injured my bones when I was young, so I am lucky to be alive now. But don't worry, I can still hold on for a few decades. I might even have the chance to outlast you."

An old voice came from behind the door, but the man did not come out. He just communicated with Old Qin through the door.

From the attitude in those words, there was a sense of concern, but more of it was expectation for the future.

Old Qin still had no expression. He was born without normal human emotions. It was the result of the efforts of many people that he did not become a real ghost.

But even the top few people couldn't make him like a normal person.

This is already the limit. "If that really happens, you won't have time to train a new tool. So I will at least hold on until you die, until that hope comes."

The old man behind the door did not comment, "So you came uninvited this time, is there something wrong?"

"There is a big change that may even affect the future. Because...even my future self doesn't dare to talk to me. At least for me, a future that has already been determined has appeared. No matter what choice I make, it is impossible to change it. If we can't erase this variable, then everything we do now is just in vain. Including my existence, it will become a joke. Of course, if this future is the one we want, it doesn't matter, so what we need now is to confirm what the future will be like."

Old Qin told about Lin Yuan’s situation.

Unfortunately, his ability to communicate with the future was restricted, and the information he knew about Lin Yuan was extremely limited. He only knew that Lin Yuan had taken away Meng Xiaodong, Yang Xiaotian, the first and second generations of the Wang family in Dadong City, and the ghost peddler.

Except for Yang Xiaotian and Wang Lu and his wife, the second generation of the Wang family, the rest of the people made the old man behind the door feel uneasy. "So that's how it is. It is indeed a very scary existence. Even Xiao Meng and the peddler have no way to deal with it?"

There is no mention of the Wang generation.

I don’t know whether he looks down on the strength of the Wang family or for some other reason.

Old Qin said in a deep voice: "She guided her future self and learned about Lin Yuan, but she did not fight Lin Yuan head-on. But this is enough to prove how terrifying Lin Yuan is. It is indeed the case. His ghost domain alone can suppress all my spiritual powers. I have only encountered this feeling in you. If there is anyone who has the ability to erase this variable, it is only you."

The old man behind the door was silent for a while, then suddenly asked, "Do you think it's possible that he is the one who will take the final step in the future?"

boom!
Hearing these words, Old Qin's heart, which had maintained a constant frequency since he was born, seemed to beat a little faster.

"How is it possible...it seems that it is not impossible."

Old Qin was in a dilemma for a while, and finally said, "What should we do next? Should we give up? Otherwise, if this future, which is very likely to be good, is affected, it would be too..."

"hehe!"

The end words of the chat appeared, and the wind blowing from behind the door seemed to be stronger.

Even the lanterns hanging above the gate were blown. One of the originally red lanterns was blown away, and this one action turned them into two white lanterns.

There were no words on the lanterns, but the light it cast had already turned pale.

A heroic, yet extremely cold voice sounded from behind the door. It was still the same old voice, but it seemed to have a little more vitality. "If even an old fellow like me can't resist it, then such an existence, even if it goes to the end, will at most just repeat the past few decades. If it can't completely end all the achievements, then it's better to turn into nutrients obediently."

……

In the year of Gengshen, in the suburbs of Dadong City, at the Peace Hotel.

This can only be said to be a projection of the Peace Hotel, not the real Peace Hotel. However, if you want to go to the real Peace Hotel, it is just a matter of Lin Yuan's words.

Lin Yuan guessed a possibility of what Mr. Qin might do.

He did not want to have a conflict with Zhang Dong of this era, so he returned directly to the Peace Hotel with the gains of this trip. Of course, the medium was still left behind.

One Gengshen year, plus the last time the space was connected but not immediately developed, the Peace Hotel has been connected to three eras!
From this perspective, the Peace Hotel is no longer an ordinary mysterious place, but is also imbued with the mysterious power of time.

"The methods used at the beginning were a bit crude. We used Wei Jing's ghost messenger to forcibly invade Little Wang Lu's era, which resulted in the medium of that era not being particularly stable. Fortunately, we have more experience this time, and we can follow this model in the future. Cao Yang and Lu Zhiwen are essential."

Lin Yuan was thinking so, but he seemed to have noticed something, he suddenly stopped and turned around.

He was now walking on the bluestone path with the ghost peddler and the first and second generations of the Wang family. From his angle, he could just see the intersection of the bluestone path and the avenue leading to the bus stop, where a hunched-backed old man suddenly appeared.

The figure was very illusory and looked like a non-existent phantom.

But the strange thing is that around this figure, even the white fog ghost domain seems to have been dispersed, unable to cover and envelop the other party. However, without the supernatural power of the white fog ghost domain, it is impossible for it to appear here.

unless……

Invade!

Lin Yuan's eyes became serious, and even his expression became a little ugly, "Zhang Dong?"

The question was expressed in the most affirmative tone.

The old man, or rather Zhang Dong from the Gengshen year, just stared at Lin Yuan across the white foggy ghostland, and his old face suddenly smiled.

This smile is free and easy, relieved, emotional, longing, and even more expectant.

Countless complex emotions were actually expressed in a single look, and Lin Yuan actually understood this look.

Lin Yuan was not surprised at all.

Because this is a supernatural world, through supernatural powers one can do many things that ordinary people cannot do, and everything in front of us is just the simplest.

What really concerned him was that he understood two words from this smile:
Danger!

The moment he understood the meaning, the old man took action. He slowly raised his hand, and it was just this one action that caused the white fog ghost area that could not get close to him within a meter around him to surge violently.

In the direction the old man was facing, all the white fog, bluestone paths, commemorative coin exchange office, Ghost Lake and Fish Pond were disappearing rapidly.

It's like a picture being erased from the drawing paper by an eraser.

Including Lin Yuan himself, he also felt that his existence was under great threat, as if he was about to be completely wiped out from the world.

In just a second, Lin Yuan disappeared, wiped out from the world.
