Chapter 156: The Haunted Domain of Changyin Mountain
Yue Kingdom, Mu City, the edge of Banshan Town.
A restaurant stands at the foot of Yinshan Mountain.
The surroundings looked very empty. Apart from the faint noise coming from inside, the outside was very quiet.
On the plaque, four large characters lit up in red light.
"Haunted restaurant."
Separated by a door, it was surprisingly lively compared to the desolation outside.
The wide hall was filled with evil spirits , and the yin energy was extremely thick. There were even two ferocious spirits sitting on the sofa in the corner drinking.
The atmosphere in the entire hall was very noisy, as if a group of demons were having a feast here.
It is definitely a pleasure to find a restaurant with a good environment in all aspects in such a desolate mountain area.
"Has the Lord Ghost King of Changyin Mountain really died?"
In front of a dinner table, a ghost in red clothes with blood all over his face finished the wine in the glass, burped excitedly and said to another ghost.
Hearing this, the ghost nodded and said, "Nonsense , otherwise why would there be so many ghosts in this desolate mountain and wilderness, even fierce gods have come."
The blood-faced red-clothed ghost nodded, then ran to the bar and said, "Boss, another glass of wine!"
Behind the bar is a girl with long green hair and a cute baby face, but the bandages wrapped all over her body show off her devilish figure.
The devilishly tall figure and innocent face are full of fatal temptation.
And this woman was none other than the bandaged ghost that Lin Chen had placed in the Haunted Restaurant. After breaking through the red clothes, this ghost unexpectedly underwent a huge change.
"Your wine." The slender fingers wrapped in bandages picked up the wine glass and handed it to the man in red clothes with a bloody face.
The bloody-faced man in red smiled evilly and left.
Although many ghosts had their eyes on the female boss, given his strength, he did not dare to act rashly.
The bandaged ghost held his chin with his hand, his expression full of thought.
She knew that her situation was not very optimistic. She was already coveted by others. Before, she had only been coveted by some red-clothed people of the same level. With her copy, she was able to cope with it.
But now, because of the incident in Changyin Mountain, it attracted powerful ghosts from all directions, and they are all gathering here.
If there really was some powerful person with evil thoughts, she would be completely unable to deal with it.
In addition to external enemies, the waiters and chefs inside also had their own ideas. Three old employees took the lead and collectively asked her to pay their wages for several days.
Paying salaries should be no problem as the restaurant has been making huge profits these past few days. However, these ghosts are not satisfied with the remuneration promised to them before. Instead, they come up with various conditions and demand double the salary, which is simply too much.
Under internal and external troubles, this small shop seems to be in a precarious situation.
The excitement in front of her started three days ago, and she directly reported the situation here to her boss far away in the human world.
But all I received was a “I’m coming.”
Apart from this, there was no other information, which made her anxious despite her calm appearance.
And the most worrying thing is that with such evil spirits gathering together and even the King of Ghosts descending, even the boss in red clothes will not be able to suppress it.
If it were her old self, she would have run away long ago under such circumstances, but now she has a contract and she is reluctant to give up the increase brought by the Haunted Restaurant, so she has stayed here.
Just when she was feeling a little sad, her expression suddenly froze.
Because she felt the power of the contract in her body, there was a huge fluctuation. The next moment, there was a calm voice in her heart, calling her.
There was a hint of excitement in her eyes. After finding a waiter to stand at the bar, she walked up the stairs.
The boss is really here!
This time we can run away together!
At least after understanding this situation, no one would be willing to stay.
Unless he has lost his mind!
His long legs moved quickly as he climbed up the stairs.
"Boss, when will the salary be paid?" A slightly plump male employee passing by asked with a sneer.
This is the earliest employee, and he can be said to be the leader of a group of employees who want wages.
Huyou was usually polite, but today the bandaged ghost said directly: "I'm the foreman, not the boss."
After saying that, he ignored the leader and went up to the second floor.
The Dream Ghost Restaurant has three floors in total.
The second floor was once the dormitory for human players, and the third floor was the dormitory for ghost players.
The bandaged ghost ran all the way to the door of a dormitory room on the second floor before stopping.
When she opened the door, she saw a man with a smile on his face, who seemed to be feeling everything around him.
His face was very similar to the one he had in the haunted restaurant.
And this person was Lin Chen in disguise.
"Boss." The bandaged ghost shouted first.
Lin Chen looked at the bandaged ghost and was a little surprised for a moment.
The former bandaged ghost was completely a mummy. Not only was his face invisible, but his body was also bloated. After all, most people couldn't even tell the difference between a man and a woman, so it was difficult for him to associate himself with the girl in front of him who had a devilish figure and an angelic face.
"Let's run!" The bandaged ghost shouted anxiously without waiting for Lin Chen to speak.
Lin Chen was stunned.
Where to run?
I waited for a month to get here, and you want me to run away right away?
"What happened?" Lin Chen asked.
The Bandaged Ghost quickly told Lin Chen again what had happened in the past two days. Because it was no longer as difficult to communicate across the world as before, she described it in great detail.
"You told me about the accident at Chang Yinshan, but it turned out that a Ghost King died of old age. Can a Ghost King also die?" Lin Chen asked in surprise.
The Ghost King is a ghost above the Ghost King. Not only is he extremely powerful, but the fact that such a ghost can die of old age gave Lin Chen a great surprise.
"We ghosts have an infinite lifespan, but when a ghost lives for a thousand years, it will face a Heavenly Ghost Tribulation. This is inevitable for ghosts of any level. If they can't withstand it, they will die of old age. If they can withstand it, their strength will increase greatly, but they will still face the Heavenly Ghost Tribulation in the next thousand years."
"The ghost king of Changyin Mountain died during the millennium catastrophe."
Lin Chen suddenly understood, and then said: "So that's how it is. So the ghost domain of this kind of ghost that died of normal causes will go out of control and leave the body, turning a certain place into a restricted area?"
The bandaged ghost nodded: "Yes, there are many ghost restricted areas in the horror world. Some powerful ghost areas can even cover an entire country. It's too scary!"
"Of course, this kind of ghost domain is also a huge treasure. If you can break through the outer perimeter of the ghost domain and enter the center under its rules, you will most likely obtain various treasures left by the ghost domain master. Those powerful evil gods and even ghost kings come here for this purpose. Moreover, we are the only inn nearby. In the past two days, we are almost out of room for the guest rooms."
Lin Chen looked surprised.
Before coming here, especially after obtaining the small river of time, he had overestimated the power of these ghosts.
But the power of the master of the ghost domain that could cover an entire country still exceeded his expectations.
I originally thought that Blue Star’s nightmare was a horror game, but I didn’t expect that the real nightmare was the horror world behind it.
wrong!
Lin Chen reacted.
Perhaps the horror game is the real one behind this, but due to certain rules, it is unable to directly connect the gate between the horror world and the blue planet, so this time it used a compromise method.
But no matter what, these have nothing to do .
Feeling the strong ghost power filling the air around him, Lin Chen's eyes flashed with excitement. He indeed felt the presence of a large number of evil ghosts around him.
Adding to what happened in Changyin Mountain, there must be a lot of ghosts gathering in this place!
The only pity is that the key to the Dream Ghost Restaurant can only allow him to stay in the horror world for seven days, and he will be forced to return after seven days.
This was the first thing Lin Chen knew after entering the horror world.
He believed that this should be related to the previous rules of the Haunted Restaurant copy.
After all, when the Haunted Restaurant was still a copy, its session time was seven days, which was exactly the same as the current residence time he had when he entered the horror world with the copy key.
Putting these thoughts behind him, Lin Chen smiled and said to the Bandage Ghost:
"It's okay. The room will be cleaned up soon. Have you forgotten our principles? Customers are our top priority! How can we abandon our customers?"
Those were the principles when the restaurant was still a dungeon , and they were not set by you...
The bandaged ghost couldn't help but complain, but still said anxiously: "Boss, those ghosts are really not easy to mess with. If they find out that you are a human, even with this copy of the restaurant, they can still kill you. You know, the fierce gods are not comparable to the red-clothed ones, let alone the ghost king!"
She thought Lin Chen had no idea of the seriousness of the situation.
Lin Chen smiled, and then without any explanation, the aura in his body shook, and the human aura on his body suddenly disappeared, replaced by a gloomy and terrifying ghost aura.
When the bandaged ghost saw the boss in front of him, he suddenly changed from a human into a fierce ghost, and exuded ferocious ghost power. He was dumbfounded on the spot.
I couldn't believe what I was seeing.
"Let me introduce you to some friends." Lin Chen said with a smile, and then he took out a pink sack.
Even though he was shocked, the Bandaged Ghost subconsciously took a step back when he saw the pink sack.
She herself had been tricked before, and although Lin Chen did not do anything to her, the scene of being in the dark and confined to a small dark space was still unforgettable for her.
What frightened her even more was that she clearly remembered that those same group of ghost players in the Haunted Restaurant were shouting words like "sack" and "devil" in the chat system before they were eliminated.
The thought of it gave her the chills.
Fortunately, Lin Chen did not target her. Instead, he opened the bag and shook it in the air. Three figures in red clothes immediately fell out of the sack.
"This is……"
The bandaged ghost was surprised again.
The aura of these three figures was not hidden. Under their red clothes, their ghost power was extremely strong. They were even more terrifying than the foreman ghost of that year!
These must be evil spirits that have condensed a large amount of hidden ghost power!
Thinking that he was still at the initial stage of Red Clothes cultivation, the Bandage Ghost actually developed a sense of inferiority at this moment.
"Teacher Chen, is this the horror world? The yin energy around here is really too strong!" Dong Potian said with a shocked look on his face as soon as he came out.
"Shanshan, Kexin, goodbye forever. Even though you don't like me, I will still think of you forever, woooo." Niu Ritian choked.
Why are you still crying?
The bandaged ghost's pretty face was full of surprise.
Lin Chen's face couldn't help but darken.
Speaking of which, this kid has been crying for four or five days. His love is so deep that it is simply outrageous!
He slapped Niu Ritian on the back of his head and cursed, "How long are you going to cry? There are so many ghost girls in the horror world, do you have to hang yourself on two trees?"
Niu Ritian suddenly came to his senses and his tears stopped immediately.
It was a very special feeling, as if I had suddenly become a different person.
The next moment, he noticed the bandaged ghost. For a moment, his eyes widened like a cow, and sparks almost came out.
But soon, he looked at Lin Chen suspiciously again, as if he had thought of something, his eyes were full of seriousness, without any other thoughts.
Lin Chen glanced at him sideways, knowing that the kid had not held his fart well, and couldn't help but kick him again.
At this time, Qiu Ziwen straightened his glasses, and his face suddenly fell. He said, "Teacher Chen, is there no wireless network here?"
Lin Chen's face turned completely black.
These three bastards are useless!
