I open a restaurant in Mysterious Recovery

Chapter 570: Wang Chaling: The Red Axe That Cannot Be Lifted
It is common sense that a virtual game with Dadong City as its background will overshadow the real Dadong City.

Shen Lin was not surprised at all to see Wang Chaling there.

Wang Chaling, on the other hand, looked at Shen Lin with a strange expression: "I didn't expect you to come to the virtual game. Don't tell me you went to the Peace Hotel."

Seeing that Shen Lin didn't answer, Wang Chaling was surprised and asked, "Did I guess it right? You actually dared to go to the store?"

Everyone knows Shen Lin's situation, and Wang Chaling naturally knows it too.

"Didn't you also go to the Peace Hotel?"

Shen Lin's words immediately made Wang Chaling's face darken.

Thinking back to the beginning, he was also reluctant to go to the Peace Hotel.

If he had not been unable to escape, he would not have had such a deep connection with the Peace Hotel.

Like now.

After he actively participated in the virtual game, he still stayed in his own city, waiting for the game to start and then sneak in as a native, instead of going to the Peace Hotel and paying to enter the game.

Of course, the reason is to save money, but more importantly, it is because of the fear of the Peace Hotel.

What Shen Lin said now was clearly a mockery of him.

"Since we are friends, let's have a meal together."

Wang Lu greeted him, and Shen Lin did not refuse.

Talking about things at the dinner table is also a long-standing custom.

It can not only bring people closer together, but also facilitate communication.

However, after the food was served, Shen Lin always felt that it didn’t seem fresh enough?

Forget it.

Anyway, eating is not the purpose. Being able to have food as soon as you arrive is a sign of sincerity, even if it is pre-prepared food.

Besides, the Wang family is such a big family, it is impossible for them to entertain guests with pre-prepared meals, right?
"This time, I hope to go to the Peace Hotel of this era."

Shen Lin explained the purpose of his visit.

Wang Lu raised his eyebrows slightly, then glanced at Wang Chaling, "It seems that the diary I wrote is no longer a secret."

Wang Chaling's face changed slightly, as if he had a premonition of some terrible future.

But he didn't run away either.

He just couldn't believe that his father, who always cared about his reputation, would hit him in front of outsiders.

He was right.

Wang Lu would indeed not take action now, but there was still time in the virtual game, enough for them to be alone.

"I have indeed been to the Peace Hotel, but unfortunately it is now deserted. If you don't believe me, I can take you there."

Wang Lu then said to Wang Chaling, "It's not safe here recently. You and your mother should stay at home. I will let your grandmother stay to protect you."

After saying that, he gave his wife a look.

Having a supernatural connection, it can be said that Wang Lu and his wife are in complete sync with each other.

With just this one look, the woman understood what Wang Lu meant.

Wang Chaling also understood, and immediately said anxiously: "Dad, I think it's better for us to go together. Now the people entering the game are getting more and more powerful. Just like the cheongsam woman you just mentioned, she may be an old monster resurrected during the Republic of China period. Her strength is terrible. If we separate grandpa and grandma, it may be dangerous!"

Before Shen Lin came, Wang Lu had just talked to Wang Chaling about Zhang Youhong, the one they met in the suburbs.

Although Wang Chaling has been to the Peace Hotel less frequently in the past two days, he has been paying attention to information about the Peace Hotel.

What's more, Zhang Youhong himself worked in the Dadong City branch. It was his territory and he had helped prepare for the opening ceremony. How could he not know?
The old monsters from the Republic of China era must naturally be faced by the existence of the Republic of China era.

Not everyone grows so fast and has the strength to suppress the Seven Elders of the Republic of China at the age of around 20.

"It's okay. Although there was a conflict between her and me, I also have some understanding of her strength. You just stay at home obediently."

After Wang Lu finished speaking, he left with Shen Lin.

Wang Chaling had no way to stop it, and could only look at the woman pitifully, "Mom, you're not really going to listen to Dad and give me a beating, are you?"

"Your father is still the head of the family. And the way you are now is not good. If you were a child, it would be ok. Acting pitiful and cute is very cute, but you are an adult now, and you still act like a child. You are simply useless. So, I think it's time to educate you properly."

The woman had a blank expression on her face, and then she took out a rattan stick.

The moment Wang Chaling saw the cane, her expression changed. "Mom, you are not right, this cane... ah!!!"

As a family weapon passed down from the Wang family, the rattan has been around for many years, but it is not a supernatural weapon. It just has a complicated production process.

Strong and reliable!
At least it is very useful to use it to enforce family discipline. Not only will the cane not be broken, but it can also allow the person being punished to feel the deep love coming from the cane!

The screams from the old house could be heard from far away.

Shen Lin had just walked out of the old house and glanced at Wang Lu, who looked normal and seemed to have heard nothing. He said with emotion: "Mr. Wang really has a strict family tradition."

“Although the child has grown crooked, we still need to take care of him if we can.” Wang Lu said calmly.

Shen Lin didn't know how to say much about other people's family affairs, and he was not interested in the Wang family's family education and family style. What he cared about more now was how to find Lin Yuan, find him.

"This is it."

Wang Lu quickly led the people to the roadside in the suburbs, where the Peace Hotel was located, and pointed in a direction and said, "Go in from there and you will enter the Peace Hotel, but Boss Lin is not inside now. If you don't believe me, you can go in and take a look."

Shen Lin said solemnly: "Of course I have to go and see it, but I met a very scary old woman here. She shouldn't be here... It seems that this time I am really going to be in trouble."

Wang Lu frowned and asked, "Who can make you so cautious?"

"An old lady who has also lived from the Republic of China to the present... an old lady from the future who is able to make surrogate dolls and is also an old lady who lives in the Peace Hotel. Meng Xiaodong, I wonder if you have heard of her name." Shen Lin said.

Wang Lu groaned and said, "Meng Xiaodong? I have no impression of him."

"It's normal that you don't know her since she has no memory of being in the Peace Hotel. However, her strength is terrifying, and she appeared here... Wait! Could she have walked out of this store?" Shen Lin suddenly thought of something.

Then he looked at Wang Lu again and said, "I have some guesses that need to be confirmed. If you have any concerns, you don't have to come in."

"You underestimate me. I've been to this store several times." Wang Lu shook his head and walked over first.

The two of them walked one after the other and soon stepped into the open space where the Peace Hotel was located.

The moment you step into this open space, the surrounding scenery changes. It is no longer the suburbs of Dadong City, but a hazy white fog.

There is a bluestone path under your feet, and at the end of the path is a hotel with neon lights hanging on it, the Peace Hotel!
However, the neon lights that had never been turned off in the past were now extremely dim, as if the power had been cut off.

Shen Lin walked in quickly. There was no one inside, but he did not feel strange. Instead, he asked Wang Lu: "Did you get any information or tips?"

Wang Lu couldn't help but glance at him. "I did get a hint. This message suddenly appeared in my mind when I entered the door, telling me that if I want to stay and eat at the Peace Hotel, as long as I get here, I can go through the door again and go to the Peace Hotel forty years later, which is the time and space where you are."

Shen Lin said: "As expected, this seemingly abandoned Peace Hotel is actually a passage, a coordinate, and a medium. A medium that allows people of your era to go to the Peace Hotel. However, this medium cannot be used for the time being, right?"

"You are really smart. During the virtual game, I really couldn't go to the future through this medium." Wang Lu did not deny it.

Shen Lin nodded. "This can explain why Meng Xiaodong left here. Because she originally came back from the Peace Hotel, it is only natural for her to leave here."

The returning Meng Xiaodong should be from this era, and looks much younger than the real Meng Xiaodong.

After forty years, if it weren't for Meng Xiaodong's distinctive outfit and supernatural powers, it would be difficult to link the two together as the same person.

But as Wang Lu said, this channel cannot be used during the virtual game.

Does Meng Xiaodong's appearance here mean that she is also one of the participants in the virtual game?

So, is she a player?
Or did she join in as a BOSS?

The former is okay, at most it is just a fight for points. Given the character Meng Xiaodong has shown in real life, he should not kill people for points.

But if it's the latter... then we can give it a try and see how far he is from the Seven Elders of the Republic of China.

"Before, I was worried about how to get to the Peace Hotel again, but now I don't have to worry about it." Wang Lu's mood did not seem to be affected. "If you want to find him in this era, I can't help you anymore."

"That's enough."

Shen Lin nodded. He had already thought of where Lin Yuan might appear in this era. After saying goodbye, he headed in a direction away from Dadong City.

That is the direction to the White Mist Wall.

After walking a distance, some ghosts that looked like foreigners suddenly appeared in the surroundings. "Are they monsters? They really are. They use a period of history as the background of the game, throw in monsters and bosses, and then restore everything through a range restart after the game is over. It's really a big deal!"

Shen Lin did not attack these wild monsters, nor did he deliberately avoid them. He continued on his way.

Along the way, the number of wild monsters increased and became more and more dense, but none of them discovered Shen Lin and attacked him.

It was obvious that he had used his supernatural powers. "New here?"

Chen Qiaoyang stood on a small hill not far away, looking at Shen Lin calmly, and Shen Lin also stopped and frowned, "I am Shen Lin, the person in charge of Daxia City. Chen Qiaoyang, I didn't kill any wild monsters, so I don't have any points."

State your identity and then explain that you have no value.

Shen Lin's words were enough to dispel the hostility of most players, but Chen Qiaoyang was different. He said greedily: "This is the world of virtual games. Your real identity is useless here. Besides, you have overlooked that you are a walking score!"

As he spoke, a series of terrifying figures appeared behind Chen Yang.

Shen Lin narrowed his eyes slightly and fearlessly took out a red axe from behind him. There was a faint stain of blood on the blade of the axe, which looked very fresh and had not yet dried.

And the axe seems very heavy.

After Shen Lin took it out, he seemed unable to bear its weight. Even if he held it with both hands, he could only smash it heavily to the ground, making a heavy sound.

"You still need to practice. You can't even lift an axe, and you expect me to chop people down?" Chen Qiaoyang mocked rudely, but there was a serious look in his eyes.

Shen Lin said calmly: "If you want to do it, hurry up, I still have things to do."

"Okay, then let's not waste everyone's time. I also need to quickly clear out the monsters here, and then do my thing."

Glancing in the direction of Dadong City, Chen Qiaoyang began to see blood flowing from his fingertips.

This blood clearly flowed out of his body, but it was abnormally thick. It didn't look like the blood in a normal person's body. Instead, it looked like the blood that had just lost its freshness and vitality and had not yet coagulated in a lifeless corpse.

The blood gathered on the ground into twisted characters, and finally dispersed and flowed into the terrifying figures behind him.

The next moment, the dormant evil spirits seemed to be activated and rushed towards Shen Lin, and supernatural phenomena began to appear one after another.

The grass began to dry up...

Bloody handprints keep appearing...

Heavy footsteps sounded from all directions...

Horrible human faces rose from the ground one after another, like evil spirits from hell spying on the world...

Shen Lin snorted coldly, picked up the axe and swung it down heavily.

The axe blade hit the ground again, but unlike before, this time it hit the faces of those people who emerged from the ground, with expressions of pain and resentment on their faces.

"what!!!"

Ear-piercing screams were heard, and a terrible crack appeared on all the faces of the people. Black blood kept gushing out, eventually submerging the faces.

In just this moment, the rest of the evil spirits had approached Shen Lin.

Under the interweaving of the supernatural, the ghost domain can hardly take shape, with only medium and close-range attacks, and this gives Shen Lin the greatest convenience.

The axe in his hand was so sharp that even a ghost could not take it.

As long as they were hit head-on, they would basically be split in half. At this time, Shen Lin was like a god of war with an axe, killing these evil spirits one by one.

"What a powerful supernatural weapon. Besides being a little heavier, it seems to have no other cost?"

The siege by the evil spirits did not have the desired effect, and Chen Qiaoyang was not anxious at all. Instead, he observed carefully from the side, and was full of greed for the axe.

"I can find an opportunity in real life. As for now, this axe belongs to me for now. Go, kill him!"

Another pool of blood gushed out from his palm, dripping onto the ground and forming several twisted large characters, before finally all flowing into the body of a ghost.

This ghost has been guarding him and is one of the four evil ghosts that have imprisoned him. His body is covered with scars from various sharp weapons.

The ghost shepherd's supernatural powers worked.

It loosened its hand and disappeared into the air. The other three ghosts filled the gap, allowing Chen Qiaoyang to be more closely protected.

Chen Qiaoyang's breathing paused slightly, as if such strict protection made him feel a little uncomfortable.

"This is a virtual game world. Even if I die, I can be resurrected. Maybe I can really consider fighting hard instead of being restricted by these old ghosts like in the previous rounds of the game, and never getting out until I die."

These four ghosts protected him inside.

These four ghosts trapped him inside.

These four ghosts are also looking for opportunities to kill him!

Shen Lin's axe is very powerful and is the sharpest supernatural weapon Chen Qiaoyang has ever seen. He can take it and use it as a weapon to fight against Zhang Xianguang.

Facing the siege of ghosts, Shen Lin seemed to be at ease, but his breathing became heavy as he swung the axe again and again.

Although he is a person living in memory, at this moment he feels tired and exhausted like an ordinary person.

This can be considered the price he pays when using the axe in his hand. At least it is much smaller than the price of chopping others and getting chopped in return.

Suddenly, alarm bells rang in Shen Lin's mind.

Before he could react, wounds appeared on his body one after another inexplicably, as if countless sharp blades were cutting his body.

"Did you get hit again? If so, it's time to go."

The number of evil spirits has become very small at this moment, from the original sixty or seventy to twenty or thirty now, but due to various supernatural phenomena, he couldn't see Chen Qiaoyang.

The next moment, all the ghosts stopped moving, and even the various strange supernatural phenomena disappeared.

"Did you make it?"

Looking at the ghosts that had returned to his side and formed a four-ghost defense, Chen Qiaoyang's eyes were full of disgust, but he didn't do much. He just walked past the group of ghosts and came to where Shen Lin was.

But what puzzled him was

Shen Lin's body disappeared, leaving only a red axe.

"What's going on with this kid? Where's his ghost? Did it resurrect and leave after it died?" Chen Qiaoyang looked around vigilantly, but didn't find any traces, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

He tried to pick up the red axe on the ground, but his face changed as soon as he touched it. "What a heavy axe, it must be several hundred pounds. Is that guy a strong man? How can he use such a heavy axe as a weapon? Or is it a supernatural effect?"

Chen Qiaoyang was very envious of the axe.

But he couldn't lift the weight of several hundred kilograms. Even when he used his supernatural powers, the axe seemed even heavier.

I have a supernatural weapon, but I can't use it.

This feeling is just like eating something, it makes people feel extremely sick.

"No! He is not dead yet, no points have been credited. Did the guy escape?"

Since he had chosen to take action, Chen Qiaoyang had no intention of letting the other party go. "Xiong Wenwen, can you predict where Shen Lin has escaped to?"

Xiong Wenwen, who was a pendant, rolled her eyes and said unhappily, "My supernatural power is to predict the future, not fortune-telling. Hey! I say, it's useless for you to kill ghosts and players here. It's just giving Zhang Xianguang more reasons to kill you. You might as well take me to find Brother Yuan of this era. Don't forget, you promised to help me. If you don't give me hope, I will go directly to Zhang Xianguang!"

Surrounded by a large number of ghosts, Xiong Wenwen was not afraid at all. Instead, she threatened Chen Qiaoyang as if it was her own business.

Chen Qiaoyang's eyes flashed with murderous intent, "Don't worry, I know what to do. The store manager of this era should be in Hongming Village. It's too dangerous there. If there are not enough ghosts, even if I take you to Hongming Village, you will just die."

"Then you'd better hurry up. Xiao Shen only has one or two ghosts. They can't even beat your little ghost. What's the use? Quickly collect these foreign ghost things, and then go to Hongming Village before Zhang Xianguang makes a move on you! When I really succeed, I will not forget your kindness." Xiong Wenwen said.

It's really beneath your dignity to argue with a little brat like this!
The corner of Chen Qiaoyang's mouth twitched, and the murderous intent in his heart disappeared. He no longer went to look for Shen Lin, but continued to harvest these "wild monsters".

Just as Xiong Wenwen said.

He approached this naughty kid and even had a conflict with Zhang Xianguang, just because he wanted to make some low-input, high-return investments.

In that case, what else is there to say?
Let’s get started!

……

In Dadong City, Wang Lu was not in a hurry to return to the Wang family's old house.

Since he knew that there were people who survived the Republic of China period in Dadong City, he naturally could not allow them to hide, including those so-called players.

Dadong City is the Wang family's territory, how can we allow these people to do whatever they want?
It is said that there are basically no bosses in virtual games. If that is the case, then he will be the boss, the enemy of all players, and tell these young people:
Dadong City is not a place for fun where you can come and go as you please!

The ghost domain of the dead soul Lao Wang covers the entire Dadong City. Everything in Dadong City is completely controlled by Wang Lu.

Apart from the Wang family's old house, there was no place in the entire Dadong City that this ghost domain could not spy on, so he quickly found a player:
Nie Yingping!
Unlike the previous times he entered the game, this time Nie Yingping was not in a hurry to harvest points, nor did he attack other players. Instead, he rested in the west of Dadong City.

Suddenly, his expression changed and he stood up and prepared to leave.

The next moment, Wang Lu appeared in front of him, and the ghost Old Wang appeared behind Nie Yingping, with a pale hand on Nie Yingping's shoulder: "Where do you want to go?"

"Wang Lu?"

Patches of frostbite began to appear on Nie Yingping's body, and the temperature around him dropped instantly, becoming extremely cold, but the hand of the dead spirit Lao Wang still rested on his shoulder without hindrance.

A strange tattoo suddenly appeared, blocking the hand, and the broken rattle also appeared in his hand, "Of course... run away!"
