I open a restaurant in Mysterious Recovery

Chapter 489 At night, the world belongs to him!

"Brother Yuan took action. Did he agree to Zhang Xianguang's plan to drag the entire world into the ghost realm and turn it into a paradise?"

Dahai City has been shrouded in a sea of ​​pink peach blossoms. It looks so beautiful that it seems to exist outside this world. However, within this beauty, it is filled with extreme weirdness and danger.

The entire Dahai City is basically in a state of suspension.

All people and things seemed to be paused at this moment, waiting for the moment of unblocking. Only inside the Peace Hotel branch, time was still flowing normally.

Looking at the peach blossoms falling outside the window and the people standing quietly in the rain of peach blossoms, He Yuelian felt an indescribable chill in her heart.

"He is just a piece of ordinary people's consciousness that has been separated. He is very reasonable. Although he is a bit stingy, he is actually a good person. As long as he does not break the rules of the Peace Hotel, he is a good person who is easy to talk to and kind-hearted, and is willing to help others within his ability."

"We are all bewitched by this side of Him."

"The real him is a being with incomprehensible and terrifying power. Even if he is not an immortal god, he is probably not far from being one."

“When dealing with such beings, one must have a certain amount of awe.”

He Yuelian, who originally had a hint of ambition in her heart because she had easily mastered the supernatural powers such as ghost paintings and the mummy bride, now once again felt enough awe.

"what?"

A light exclamation sounded in her ears, and she turned back subconsciously.

This is the Peace Hotel branch in the ghost painting. Those who can come here are all certified adventurers, and most of them come here at night.

There are two or three adventurers here now, and they are here to take over the mission.

Just now they were all shocked and confused by the changes in the outside world, but at this moment, they, like the people and objects in the outside world, maintained a fixed posture and closed their eyes.

All movements, bodily functions, and even thoughts were frozen.

It was as if time had lost its effect on them. At the same time, there was an unknown aura flowing, like a cold current, attacking He Yuelian.

Such a strange change made He Yuelian's heart skip a beat. She murmured to herself with a hint of bitterness, "I thought I was special, but it seems that it's not me who is special, but..."

Before she finished her words, He Yuelian turned into a sculpture like everyone else.

……

In Okawa City, after the Ghost Head incident, only one in ten residents in the urban area survived.

Even the survivors, due to the impact of this incident, most of them left here with their families and dared not live here anymore.

Even with the strong support from the headquarters, after a few months, this place has regained some prosperity, but it is still far from what it used to be.

As the person in charge of Dachuan City and the captain of the headquarters, Li Leping is dealing with supernatural events.

That’s right, it’s a supernatural event.

For a long time after the ghost head incident, there were no supernatural incidents in Okawa City. It is suspected that the outbreak took away all possible evil spirits.

But recently, supernatural incidents have begun to rebound.

Fortunately, they are all low-level supernatural events, and are not particularly difficult to deal with, especially when facing a being like Li Leping. Basically, as long as the source is found, no additional action is needed. As long as Li Leping gets close, the source ghost can be imprisoned.

The ghost smoke blocks the area, looking for people and ghosts.

In comparison, forgetful ghosts and sleepwalking ghosts can often only play an auxiliary role, as well as... side effects.

After putting the source ghost into the golden woven bag, Li Leping exhaled lightly, "It seems that I have to recruit some people to organize a ghost-controlling team. Otherwise, these C-level and B-level supernatural events will be dragged here and I won't be able to do other things. I didn't participate in the two recent virtual games. I heard that there are foreign ghost-controllers and even members of the King's Organization joining..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Leping's face changed, and his whole aura instantly became gloomy and cold.

"Is it time again?"

Li Leping's face was numb. He immediately returned to his base through the ghost realm, stored the golden woven bag, and then went to Mingyue Community again.

The most terrifying thing about the last ghost head incident happened in this old neighborhood.

However, the store manager Lin Yuan was present at the time, so no matter how horrific the scene was, it ended with a happy ending. After that, the community was also blocked by Li Leping and not demolished.

They just built a high wall near the community, completely blocking and isolating the community.

The original reason is no longer known to outsiders, but now its effect is very good, which is to help Li Leping get through the dangerous period at night.

When he arrived here, he looked even less like a human.

His previous experience made him lack the last step on the road to becoming an alien, which left a hidden danger. Every night during a specific period of time, there would be a short period of time when the evil spirit would revive and become a walking ghost.

At that time, he will no longer be the captain of the headquarters and the person in charge of Okawa City, Li Leping, but the sleepwalking ghost Li Leping who controls the forgotten ghost, the person-seeking ghost, and the ghost smoke.

Li Leping is the most dangerous at this time. He will only act according to the rules of killing, and his supernatural powers will be greatly enhanced. He is no longer limited by his body's endurance, but truly becomes a ghost.

"This uncontrollable state is too bad, and the danger system is also very high. I should go to the Peace Hotel. Even if I just stay at the Peace Hotel for the night, I can suppress the revival of the sleepwalking ghost. Moreover, I can pay the store manager to help solve the problem of the forgotten ghost."

Li Leping had had this idea before, but he had never been able to put it into practice.

There are many reasons, but now, all the previous reasons can be discarded. Li Leping is very clear about his situation. "I have no other choice."

Then, Li Leping's consciousness completely disappeared.

Thick smoke instantly enveloped the Mingyue Community, and the sleepwalking ghost began to wander around the community. Its appearance was ordinary, but its face was stiff, its body was cold, weird and abrupt. At the same time, it closed its eyes and entered a sleepwalking state, confused and unable to wake up.

Li Leping, who was sleepwalking, began to wander around the Mingyue Community like a ghost.

But this place has been blocked off, and there is an area outside the high walls that block the community that has been cleared out, and no people or animals are allowed to stay there.

This area was also set up by Li Leping when he was awake, and the scope of this area was exactly the limit of the ghost smoke that could be covered when he was sleepwalking, and outside the limit range of finding human ghosts.

In order to prevent any accidents, a tolerance zone is added to this limit to ensure that no omissions occur.

This situation has been going on for a long time and there has never been a problem, which also proves that Li Leping's arrangement is correct.

But at some point.

The sleepwalking ghost named Li Leping suddenly stopped, and at the same time a thick white mist rushed out from its mind, instantly replacing the previous ghost smoke, and in a very short time, enveloped the entire Dachuan City.

……

Dachang City, Guanjiang Community.

It is already late at night, and even this residential area has become very quiet, with almost no one walking on the streets.

Everyone knows that although Guanjiang Community is safe, it is also very dangerous.

Because on the streets of the community at night, there will be a short figure constantly wandering around, and this is also a place where people can rest in peace without worrying about the outbreak of supernatural events without knowing it:

Ghost child!

It was the same tonight. The ghost child was running around on the roads and green belts in the community, like a naughty child, venting his energy in this deserted night.

On the top floor of a villa in the center, Yang Jian was calmly looking at the lively ghost child in the community. His expression was numb, but there was confusion in his eyes.

"You are very different now than you were before. Is there something you can't figure out?"

Behind Yang Jian, a woman in a white dress and with skin as white as snow stood there quietly. She was Yang Jian’s classmate, one of the seven survivors of Dachang No. 7 Middle School, and also Yang Jian’s ghost slave, relying on Yang Jian’s supernatural powers to survive.

Her name is Wang Shanshan.

"I was just thinking that maybe the concerns in my heart have already made people start to become out of touch with the mainstream." Yang Jian said so. He now needs an audience.

Wang Shanshan asked, "Peace Hotel?"

"That's right. I always feel that something is wrong with the Peace Hotel. The manager is very kind to me and has helped me a lot, but I still have concerns. It's as if there is a voice in my heart telling me: He is very dangerous, don't get close to him!" The more Yang Jian spoke, the more confused his eyes became.

Wang Shanshan said: "Perhaps, you can ask him directly."

"I know what you mean, but it's a pity. I have no chance to meet him, or no one has the chance to meet him. He has never shown himself in front of people. Maybe in his eyes, we are just ants struggling to survive and are not worth mentioning at all." Yang Jian said.

Wang Shanshan said, "You have to fight for it before you know the result. Yang Jian, you are very different now than before. Is it because of what happened recently that you were hit?"

Yang Jian shook his head.

Recently he has been busy clearing the Ghost Post Office, especially helping Sun Rui become the administrator of the Ghost Post Office.

Only by letting Sun Rui become the administrator of the Ghost Post Office can they make use of the Ghost Post Office and put an end to Zhang Xianguang's influence on the Ghost Post Office. The messenger of the Ghost Post Office has too much influence on supernatural events, which is a very big destabilizing factor.

But in addition to delivering letters, he was also paying attention to the news of the Peace Hotel, including the situation of virtual games. When kings like landlords and manor owners began to appear in the Peace Hotel, his heart was finally confused.

"Perhaps, I am really overthinking it. After I finish reading Cao Yang's virtual game report meeting materials tomorrow, I will go to the ghost post office to talk to him and listen to his suggestions."

He, of course, refers to Yang Xiao, that is, the supernatural body left behind by his father Yang Xiaotian in the oil painting world of the Ghost Post Office.

Normally, Yang Jian couldn't call out "Dad", but at this time, he instinctively hoped to get help from Yang Xiao's experience.

Maybe this is instinct.

Suddenly, Wang Shanshan's head drooped, as if she had lost all her energy in an instant, and she fell to the ground like a doll without power.

Yang Jian did not react because his own condition was more special.

White mist surged out from his mind and from the shadow on his body that clung to his skin like a piece of clothing, and quickly enveloped the entire villa, the entire Guanjiang community, and even the entire Dachang City.

……

Dajing City, International Ghost Rider Headquarters, Command Center.

Tonight is the time for the virtual game. Cao Yanhua and other senior executives are all waiting here for news, while Lu Zhiwen is acting as a recorder, recording any supernatural information that may occur at any time.

When the virtual game first started, the headquarters' attitude was very cautious.

Especially when the first round of virtual games came into reality and enveloped the entire ZS city, in order to get the store manager to help, Li Jun specially called the Peace Hotel to order takeout.

But by now, the headquarters has become accustomed to the situation where virtual games cover one or two real cities, and basically does not worry about any major problems.

"Although the manager uses reality as a game, at least when the game is over, everything will return to normal and there will be no hidden dangers. Moreover, in the cities that have experienced the game, all supernatural events will basically be cleared up. From this point of view, I actually hope that the virtual game can be played for a few more rounds, so that our people won't have to risk their lives." Zhao Jianguo said in a relaxed tone and made a few jokes by the way.

There is no way. Habitually staying up late puts a heavy burden on the body.

Moreover, this was the second time he had stayed up late in the past three or four days. Although he was only in his thirties or forties and still in his prime, he always had to stay alert so as not to fall asleep while watching.

This is not without precedent.

The "live" screen of the virtual game is a city shrouded in white fog and ghostly territory, which disappears when the game ends, without any special changes.

It would be fine if Cao Yanhua was not there, as the captain he could also relax a little, but now Cao Yanhua had not left yet, so he naturally could not doze off and affect his own evaluation.

"According to what you said, if virtual games are launched in all cities, or even directly cover the entire country, can all supernatural incidents be eliminated overnight?"

Shen Liang was still at odds with him as usual. It had nothing to do with personality, but purely professional competition. "If we do this, how is it different from Zhang Xianguang's Peach Blossom Spring plan? No, there is still a difference. At least the virtual game is only played at night. In other words, the daytime world belongs to ordinary people, and the nighttime world, including ordinary people, all belongs to the Peace Hotel?"

Zhao Jianguo said unhappily, "Captain Shen, you are exaggerating a lot!"

"That's because your attitude is problematic." Shen Liang retorted bluntly.

Cao Yanhua did not stop the verbal sparring between Zhao Jianguo and Shen Liang as he did in the past, mainly because he was also a little sleepy and needed to refresh himself.

It just so happened that the first confrontation between Zhao Jianguo and Shen Liang was well-reasoned and very intense. It was very interesting to listen to, like watching a big drama, and it also helped him to perk up.

"Deputy Minister, why don't you go and have a rest? If anything happens, we will notify you." Perhaps because he felt that talking nonsense would not produce any results, Shen Liang directly showed concern for Cao Yanhua.

Zhao Jianguo's eyes suddenly widened, as if to say:
Okay, you actually ran away!

"No, more than half of the night has passed. I'll just hold on for a while. It's okay." Cao Yanhua waved his hands, looked at the unchanging shots on the big screen, and murmured in a low voice: "I don't know why, but I always feel something is wrong tonight. I have a kind of frightening feeling, as if something terrible is going to happen."

"This……"

Shen Liang and Zhao Jianguo looked at each other and both felt that Cao Yanhua was making a big deal out of nothing.

If a ghost rider, especially a top ghost rider, has such a feeling, then it is possible that something big might happen. After all, the supernatural is an extraordinary power, and foreseeing danger is not a rare ability.

But Cao Yanhua is just an ordinary person, without any supernatural powers, he just has strong working ability. This can’t help him develop a sixth sense to predict the future, right?
However, Cao Yanhua was their leader, and they could not disobey him. They could only say, "Why don't we call Xiong Wenwen over? He can predict the future, and if there is anything wrong, he should be able to help."

Cao Yanhua shook his head and refused, "No need, the boy should be asleep. And you know his situation. This time Cao Yang went to the Peace Hotel without him, and he has been tossing and turning for seven or eight hours. If he comes here again, I'm afraid he will toss and turn for the whole night again."

At this moment, a staff member suddenly reported in panic: "Deputy Minister, something happened in Dachuan City! The entire Dachuan City is shrouded in white fog and ghosts. All signals have disappeared and we can't contact Li Leping!"

what?
Everyone stood up suddenly, listening to the news in disbelief, and the sleepiness they had just felt disappeared without a trace in an instant.

"I'll go to the scene and take a look. If it's the store manager's ghost domain, then there won't be any big problems." Li Jun immediately volunteered.

He has a ghost domain, and by turning the ghost domain into a rainbow, he can rush there at the fastest speed. Of course, he also has to bring Ah Hong with him. The two of them are now bound together.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, go quickly and come back soon."

Cao Yanhua had just finished speaking, and before Li Jun could take Ah Hong into action, more staff members stood up and reported:

"Something's wrong with Dazhou City! It's also shrouded in the white fog ghost domain, but there's no one in charge in Dazhou City. All we know is that all communications are cut off!"

"There's also a problem in Otsu City. It's also shrouded in the white fog ghost area, and there's no communication either."

"Dahan City..."

"Dachang City..."

"Xiaonan City..."

"Zhongjiang City..."

"ZS City..."

The news that one city after another was shrouded in white fog and ghostly territory made Cao Yanhua's legs go weak. He collapsed directly into the chair and then looked at Shen Liang.

"Captain Shen, you really are a jinx. Or, in other words, do you know something?" Zhao Jianguo asked, gritting his teeth.

Shen Liang's face was pale, and he seemed to have been frightened and dumbfounded. He could only mutter to himself: "How is it possible, how is it possible, how is it possible..."

He just said it casually just to refute Zhao Jianguo, how come it became reality in the blink of an eye?

The video on the big screen was no longer divided into two screens: Dadong City and Taiping Ancient Town. Instead, it was instantly divided into dozens of small screens. Each screen corresponded to a city and was constantly changing.

There are many cities in China, and it is impossible to see everything on a small screen of just a few dozen yuan.

It can be seen from the screen that all the first-tier and second-tier cities have basically been shrouded in the white fog ghost domain. Except for Dajing City, there is basically no escape.

A small number of third-tier cities have already been shrouded in white fog and ghost areas, but the degree of this situation is still intensifying.

It was like turning on the lights at night, and every city was lit up by the white fog ghost domain. The speed was extremely fast. In just a few breaths, more than a dozen cities were already shrouded in the white fog ghost domain.

"If this situation continues, it won't be long before the whole country is shrouded in a white fog. What does the store manager... no, he, want to do? Has the evil spirit revived?"

Lu Zhiwen murmured in a low voice, his eyes full of disbelief.

"Deputy Minister, there are two cities that are different."

Suddenly, a staff member reported, which gave Cao Yanhua and others a little more hope. "Which two cities?"

The staff member brought up a picture, "The first one is Dahai City. Other places are all white fog ghost areas, but Dahai City is a sea of ​​pink peach blossoms."

When everyone looked, they saw that the entire Dahai City was covered in a pink rain of peach blossoms, which was so beautiful and not like the human world.

"This is... a ghostly painting of a place that has been distorted by the store manager's cognition." Li Jun said in a deep voice.

Cao Yanhua gritted his teeth and said, "What about another city?"

"The other one is Dajing City where we are. Currently, all the cities near Dajing City are shrouded in white fog, but everything is normal in Dajing City."

The person who said this was Shen Liang. He spoke before the staff member. However, just as he finished speaking, he saw white fog suddenly surge out from a certain area of ​​Dajing City on the screen.

Shen Liang: “???”

Without any hesitation, Cao Yanhua immediately pressed a button, and for a moment, the entire headquarters began to rumble and shake.

After just a few breaths, the noise and vibration stopped, but the headquarters had changed into a huge safe house.

"All signals are cut off, but it is foreseeable that the entire Dajing City has also fallen. It is completely shrouded in the white fog ghost domain and has become...his domain!"

Cao Yanhua slumped in the chair, closed his eyes, and his body trembled slightly, which was a manifestation of extreme despair.
