Chapter 4 Under the Forgetful River
The bell closed on his wrist and was embedded deeply into his skin like a living thing. It was almost a swaying moment. The rope of the bell melted into his body and turned into a circle of red tattoo-like things.
Looking at the bell itself, it almost grows in the flesh. Every time I shake it, I can feel the slight pulling feeling from my skin.
"Hiss..." Yu Xing took a light breath with a natural expression, not knowing what he was sighing.
The other people's faces became ugly, especially the two girls who formed the team, Chengzi and Xiaoyan, who were even more frightened and dared not touch their wrists.
Although it doesn't hurt, it's disturbing enough... It's the wrist here. If something happens, it's not the same as slitting your wrist!
"Go, I'll settle your salary for you in six hours." The foreman waved his hand and rushed out the fearful deducers.
After leaving the locker room, Xiaoyan heard behind Yu Xing with a crying voice: "Orange, what should I do? I'm scared!"
Yu Xing's attention was divided. Although Chengzi's face turned pale, he still stroked Xiaoyan's back and comforted softly: "It's okay, don't be afraid, if we follow the rules, there will be no problem, I will be there."
It seems that these two are really newcomers, and it is very likely that the time has come, and the system has forced the deduction game to be sent to.
Yu Xing was so active that the system could not find any faults, so the system did not remind him that in fact, a deducer below the differentiation level must enter the game every half month, and if he doesn't take the initiative, he will force him.
This kind of escape is understandable, but it often means the fear of the deducer itself. Usually, such people will not have a good result.
"Where are we going?" Zhao Yijiu interrupted Yu Xing's thoughts.
Yu Xing withdrew his attention and didn't say anything, but pointed to a sign in front of him.
There are dividing lines on the three halls on the first floor, and each two halls will be narrowed, with a double-sided sign at the entrance.
The locker room is opened separately, and the sign at the entrance of the hall next to it is called - Biwan.
Zhao Yijiu understood what he meant, not that they wanted to stay on the other side of the wine cafe, but that they would go to the other side of the wine cafe first, avoid others, and then discuss the action plan.
The two left the six people who were still thinking, and walked into the wine and coffee first.
Yu Xing lowered his voice and said, "Let's go to Wangchuan."
If you draw a floor plan of the terrain on the first floor of the bar, the other side, Huangquan and Wangchuan are connected in sequence from left to right, and the gate is on the side of the Huangquan Disco.
When Yu Xingjin was deducing, he appeared directly in the Huangquan Disc Hall in the middle. Before he had time to go to the Wangchuan hall to take a look, he passed by the other side of the wine cafe and went to the locker room.
Zhao Yijiu said lightly: "Because of the stairs?"
"That's right." Yu Xing looked at the occasional glance of the ghost guests in the wine cafe on the other side, and remained silent.
It is precisely because the bar has a second floor and they didn’t see the stairs all the way when they went to the locker room, so it can be guessed that the stairs leading to the second floor should be near Wangchuan Jiuke.
It is most convenient for them to go up and down the stairs near the stairs, and they can also observe the situation of other groups going up and down the stairs. There is another more important reason...
Yu Xing was shocked, and suddenly accelerated his pace and squeezed into the crowd in the Huangquan Disco.
Zhao Yijiu didn't quite understand what was wrong with him. When she looked back with some emotion, she saw a woman in a red dress standing up at some point, looking at Yu Xing's back, drowned by the twisted figure, with a slightly disappointed expression.
If Yu Xing hadn't slipped fast enough, she might have caught up with her.
Zhao Yijiu: “…”
Without saying anything, he turned his face silently, moved away from the crowd of people who were dancing, and walked towards Wangchuan wine cafe.
...
Very dangerous.
Yu Xing successfully passed through the noisy group of ghosts, and was still scared.
The evil ghost in red hasn't given up on him yet!
As his current waiter, if the red-clothed evil spirit makes any excessive demands, he is not afraid of being forced, but is just afraid that he will accidentally turn against him and beat the red-clothed evil spirit.
The fun was so great that he was likely to be beaten up immediately and then complained.
Soon, Zhao Yijiu followed up and asked nothing, but passed him and entered the Wangchuan Hall.
Speaking of which, all the nouns in this "Seiqinggui Bar" are quite interesting, and correspond to the ancient Chinese legend of the underworld.
Wangchuan refers to Wangchuan River.
Many people think that the Yellow Spring is the river that needs to be crossed in the underworld. In fact, this is a misunderstanding. The river that ghosts want to cross is called Wangchuan.
The blue and white spring is the sky, and the yellow spring is the underground. Although the yellow spring is also called one of the nine prisons and nine springs, it is actually a road underground.
Legend has it that after a person dies, he leads the way through the ghost gate, walks through the Huangquan Road. Before entering the underworld, the Wangchuan River divides it into two banks. There is a Naihe Bridge above the Wangchuan River. He drinks Mengpo soup on the bridge. The past is all false.
The water of the Wangchuan River is bloody yellow, and the Wangchuan wine coffee in the Qinggui Bar uses this color.
The dim lights illuminate every locker, and the dark yellow bar looks gorgeous and textured. Against the wall, the wine bottles in the cabinet are filled with intoxicating beautiful liquids. The bartender is an unknown woman, her whole body is covered in black gauze, covering her mouth and nose, revealing only a pair of pure black eyes without whites.
Yu Xing saw the stairs in the corner. The stairs were all ink and there were blood red embellishments on the handrails. He almost thought of what this stairs represented - Naihe Bridge.
So, is the symbol of the second floor the underworld?
"Give us the drink list."
Suddenly, Zhao Yijiu's voice sounded beside Yu Xing. When Yu Xing saw that Zhao Yijiu actually walked to the bartender and took the initiative to talk to the female bartender.
There were only a few people sitting in front of the bar. Perhaps because the nightclub was just beginning, night was the more suitable time for ghosts to enjoy, so there were not many people in Wangchuan Hall, which was in sharp contrast to the lively atmosphere of Huangquan Hall.
The wine list describes the names and prices of all the wines for sale, which are convenient for customers to sell.
Yu Xingduo glanced at him: I didn’t expect that Zhao Yijiu was quite experienced.
He walked over, too.
"You are the new waiter today." Although the bartender was dressed strangely, it was obviously more comfortable than the male bartender with white powder on the other side hall. Her voice was soft and she skillfully took out a piece of paper from under the cabinet and handed it to Zhao Yijiu. "Give it, according to the rules, you must complete my requirements before you can get a complete drink list."
Zhao Yijiu nodded expressionlessly, took the paper and looked at it, and handed it to Yu Xing.
Yu Xing glanced briefly and saw that the note read:
[An evil ghost climbed up on the ferry of the Forget River. It bribed the ferryman and came to the Naihe Bridge. It should have wandered forever in the river. Please find this evil ghost in this hall and trick it into buying a wine called "Under the Forget River".]
In addition, more than 20 wine names are written on this piece of paper, but the wine introduction and price list are missing.
The tongue of evil ghosts, the cocktail of regret, the river of forgetfulness, the desire is unsatisfactory, the melancholy ghost, the impermanent ice beer... more than twenty, and the most expensive one is Mengpo Soup.
"It's really interesting." Yu Xing muttered, looked at Zhao Yijiu, then turned around and prepared to start the task.
The bartender paused, and even a feeling called confusion appeared in his dark eyes.
Wait... You haven't asked me why there are such rules. How strong is this evil ghost?
Are you so enthusiastic about work?
