Xia Tianqiong remained calm, continuing to eat her food without stopping.
Those who vomited blood after eating must have eaten some kind of supernatural food that only the supernatural could eat.
He also ordered some yin dishes, but he didn't eat them himself. Instead, he stored them in the mirror space for the four strange creatures inside to eat.
The food and wine here, whether for humans or for the supernatural, all have a very special effect.
That is the art of birth!
This is why the Wujian Restaurant is sought after by all ghost hunters and the supernatural.
However, the probability is very small, and whether or not a trick can be created depends entirely on luck.
Seeing that Xia Tianqiong didn't seem to care at all, the man continued, "This restaurant is strange. Many people have disappeared. I even heard the waiter asking customers to pay with ghost money. We might have encountered a ghost. Let's run away!"
Xia Tianqiong looked at him and thought to herself that this person was quite kind-hearted; he ran away himself but didn't forget to remind others.
"You can't escape. I suggest you go back to your seats and order more food. Even if you die, you can at least die with a full stomach."
"Are you crazy? You're the one who's been eating too much and died!"
The woman next to Xia Tianqiong glared at him, then pulled the man away, saying, "Why worry about others? Our priority is to save our own lives."
"I'm afraid of encountering unexpected events. Having another companion means having more strength!"
The two men crouched low, using the table as cover, and quietly approached the restaurant entrance.
The waiter suddenly appeared in front of them, stopped them, said something, and then patted them on the shoulder. They followed him into the kitchen cubicle and never came out again.
Xia Tianqiong saw this scene from afar, shook her head slightly, and continued eating the food and wine in front of her.
The Wujian Restaurant has many rules, so don't even mention ordinary people who don't understand them. Even a ghost hunter from a previous life often gets stuck here.
Behind Xia Tianqiong, at a table away, sat Bai Yichen and Bai Jingjing.
They discussed it for a long time before ordering six dishes.
The price is just too high; I can't afford to order too much.
Bai Jingjing ate heartily, without any regard for her table manners, complaining as she ate, "A plate of shredded potatoes costs two thousand ghost money, it's practically robbery."
The scruffy little dog was also lying on the corner of the table, gnawing on a huge pork knuckle.
"The food and wine here have a very small chance of causing people to develop supernatural powers, so it's reasonable that they're expensive."
Bai Yichen held a braised pig's trotter in his hands, enjoying it immensely.
"I heard that someone spent millions of ghost money here for a year, and in the end, they only managed to create a particularly useless sorcery. Let's not have too high hopes."
While the two were eating, they were also keeping an eye on Xia Tianqiong's every move.
We're waiting for him to trigger a certain rule, and then we'll have a scene where he comes to our rescue.
After waiting for a long time, many others triggered the rules and were taken away by the waiter, while he remained sitting there steadily without triggering any rules.
After a final discussion, they decided to go directly and explain their purpose.
Xia Tianqiong was eating and drinking when a man and a woman walked over. They were dressed exquisitely, but the brand was indiscernible; they looked like custom-made high-end goods.
The two of them, standing there, exuded a unique aura that set them apart from ordinary people.
The man asked, "Friend, you've ordered so much food, do you have the money to pay the bill?"
"What's it to you?"
Xia Tianqiong retorted coldly.
Bai Yichen wasn't annoyed, and continued to probe, "You need ghost money to pay here. Without ghost money, people will die."
"Thank you for letting me know. Someone already told me."
Xia Tianqiong remained calm and unconcerned.
Bai Yichen and Bai Jingjing exchanged a glance. It seemed that this person possessed a certain amount of ghost money and understood some of the rules; otherwise, he wouldn't have remained so calm.
Bai Jingjing suddenly smiled, her beauty captivating and radiant.
"Let me introduce myself. We are from the Bai family, a family of ghost hunters. My name is Bai Jingjing, and this is Bai Yichen. We know that you have made a contract with a ghost, and more than one, so we came here specifically to invite you to join our Bai family."
Officially, they are called an ancient family, but they prefer to call themselves the Ghost Hunter Family.
Xia Tianqiong's expression remained unchanged, only his pupils slightly contracted.
He thought the people who would find him first would be from the Bureau of Strange Affairs, but he didn't expect it to be the Bai family, one of the five ancient families.
How did you find me?
“If someone tells us your name, we can find you.”
Bai Jingjing held the scruffy puppy in her arms, stroking it continuously.
Xia Tianqiong glanced at it and suddenly realized that the feeling of being called by name earlier came from this strange dog-shaped creature, which possessed a kind of mysterious ability to find people.
"I've never heard of any ghost-hunting family, and I have no interest in joining you. Please leave!"
The ancient family was not a good bunch. In the early stages of the strange occurrences, they did help the authorities maintain social order and actively hunt down the strange creatures.
However, by the middle of the period, the authorities were constrained by a massive number of supernatural beings. They even ceded territory and declared themselves kings, enslaving countless people to produce ghost money for them. Some even fed the supernatural beings with humans.
Xia Tianqiong suffered a lot of oppression and exploitation from these families in her previous life, and she plans to take revenge in this life. How could she possibly join them?
"Don't rush to refuse, listen to our terms first."
Bai Jingjing spoke in a kind and gentle tone, like a lady from a respectable family.
Bai Yichen's expression remained cold. "Countless strange beings are about to descend upon the world. Although you have contracted with three of them, with your individual strength, you may not be able to survive in this chaotic world."
Our Bai family has thousands of years of accumulated knowledge and possesses all sorts of mysterious information. We can help you become stronger and provide you with protection. Joining us is your best choice.
