Cyber Ghosts Chapter 134 Crisis of Dragon King Temple

"Don't blame me for that." Zhe scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly, "My brother told me to do this. Otherwise, you know, his temper..."

"Eh...What are you talking about?" Liu Shuai could not help but ask the two love birds, "As you implied just then, Wang Shiming had arranged a plan for Zhe to behave secretively throughout his entire university period. How did this plan slip?"

"It's not that we didn't want to tell you, but it was too ridiculous to say." Zhe took a quick glance at Ye and replied, "It's true that he asked me to pretend to be low-key, but my brother's definition of being "low-key" is really... Ye, why don't you tell him about it?”

"Haha, do you know how his brother asked him to 'be low-key'?" Wen giggled at Zhe, covering her mouth. "He asked Zhe to pretend to be poor, with one BMW, one 200 square meter house in S City, and 'only' 2 million yuan left in bank deposits. Can you imagine such an enviable 'poor person' driving in school all the time, and always telling others that he is broke? Zhe explained to me later that although he also felt that his brother's practice very strange, his brother said that there was absolutely no problem, and that he also said that no matter how poor a person is, he could own one BMW. He thought that was the limit.”

Puff... Long Fei couldn't help himself and spat out a mouthful of water before Liu Shuai and Hao Ning had any reaction. The water would be sprayed on the face of Ye immediately. Zhe went hurriedly, trying to protect Ye, and Long Fei saw Liu Shuai and Hao Ning's glare at him. He felt that he seemed a bit rude. Quickly stretching out his fingers, he made a virtual stroke in the air. The saliva that spewed from his nostrils suspended in the sky above the table and returned to himself, before it fell.

Long Fei thought about getting this water back to the cup, but he felt it somehow disgusting. So he manipulated the water polo to twirl two turns in the air and turned into a waterline, flying to the table below. You could see Long Fei's skill to control water. The moment the water met the table. It was absorbed by it without any effort, like a sponge. It seemed that nothing had ever appeared before, and the tabletop was very dry. After doing all this, Long Fei continued the question with everyone staring at him," The poor should have two million? We are not qualified to be poor then..."

"Long Fei! What are you doing again?” Hao Ning had bad feelings immediately when he saw Long Fei spraying water on Ye's face. Seeing Long Fei's quick caster that brought this water back, his heart settled down. Zhe and Xiaoye's face was filled with respect. He knew that Long Fei had already made the two kneel at his feet, which was also a good thing. He was to boast about Long Fei when he drew water into the wooden table. The wooden table was hard to preserve, especially when water was entering the interior, which was why all wooden furniture needed to be waterproof.

Hao Ning was about to collapse when he thought about it. This restaurant had a per capita price of more than 8000 and Long Fei forced his own saliva into the wood. This table was almost a waste. The restaurant owner would certainly look for trouble with them. Even though the restaurant owner wouldn't say anything for Zhe's sake. This rude manner was also observed by Zhe, the young and rich Signorino. Hao Ning had every right to fear this to be the last meal.

"Long Fei? Is this the name of Mr. Dragon God in the mortal world?” Zhe ignored Long Fei's impoliteness completely but was shocked by Long Fei's power. "No master of my father's acquaintance has this skill! This is..."

"It's my power." Long Fei was just stunned by Hao Ning's roar. His body shook and was really afraid that Hao Ning would point to himself as he did last night. Worried of what he might go through, he replied nervously, "Sorry, I shouldn't have cast a spell just now..."

"I understand, of course." Zhe couldn't help his excitement and nodded. Masters don't perform magic power at their will, certainly. It's definitely not good for the mortal world to see it. "Master Long Fei, you can rest assured. We won't say a word.”

Saying that, Zhe tightened his grip on Ye's hand. Ye also nodded, and Zhe continued to praise: "I just didn't expect Master Long Fei to be willing to show his power in front of us. Obviously, you did not treat us as outsiders!"

Long Fei was delighted when he heard of it. In the standard of Zhe, he probably treated no one as an outsider. He had always acted without so many rules of the world. To Zhe, this bewilderment for traditions and rules was interpreted differently. Not knowing how to explain it, Long Fei just had to nod and look at Hao Ning, smiling.

Hao Ning was stunned that Zhe cared nothing about the problem of the table. After thinking it thoroughly, he realized that to Zhe, a table was just a tool. Rich guys had seen more than that, and only himself cared about the price of ruining it. Rich people and the poor. The world was full of mutual misunderstandings. Seeing the admiration in Zhe's eyes, Hao Ning had to cough gently and went along: "Zhe, you are right. Miracles can't be displayed at will. Otherwise, it will lead to unpredictable Karma, which is the cause and its effect. Bodhisattvas fear the cause, and mortals fear the effect, so Long Fei tried hard to avoid such cause and effect. But after all, the two of you have predestined fate with Long Fei, so Long Fei did not evade. However, we would be grateful if you promise to keep the secret.”

Zhe was taken by surprise when Hao Ning suddenly said that thing, especially when he mentioned the fear of Bodhisattvas and the mortals. He nodded as if he realized something suddenly. Hao Ning was secretly giggling in his heart. It seemed that Zhang Chi Hang's words that were hard to understand could be useful to the rich.

"Zhe, look!" Ye was very careful. While she was listening to Hao Ning, she suddenly pointed to the table in front of Long Fei and said to Zhe. "What is that?"

"What is it?" Hao Ning saw his success in shifting the topic. He went along with it, looking down to the pointed direction of Ye, but nothing was found. He couldn't help but ask, "Is there anything?"

"There were grains on the wooden table." Ye replied seriously.

"Oh..." Surely there were. A wooden table without grains would be a stainless steel table. Hao Ning glanced at Zhe and saw he spoil her with a smile. He then gave Hao Ning a blink. Hao Ning knew it well that in the eyes of those lovers, each other's shortcomings were treated as advantages. So he had to say, "Yes, the grain of this wooden table really - really exists."

"No, Hao Ning." He could see that Ye took it very seriously, pointing to the table in front of Long Fei. "I mean there are more lines on the wooden table, which weren't there just now."

Listening to Ye's words, Hao Ning looked at it carefully. Some new grains seemed to slowly appear at the wooden table in front of Long Fei. The new ones are very similar to the original ones, so he hadn't pay attention to it at all. However, these grains increased at a visible speed gradually. Then a gap was cracked slowly. After that some slender filaments crept out from the gap, entangling each other. It became thick and strong with no time, and the changing speed became faster and faster. Finally, it grew into a purple-black, mushroom-like thing.

At first glance, Hao Ning knew what this was. But he didn't expect it to appear here. He looked at Long Fei and Liu Shuai surprisedly. Liu Shuai was also shocked and unable to speak.

"This is?" Zhe asked, with a lack of confidence, "Mushroom?"

"Em..." Liu Shuai coughed slightly to hold back the excitement in his voice. Staring at Long Fei, he sighed with amazement, "It's a fungus like mushrooms, but we usually call it－Ling Zhi, Ganoderma lucidum.

"What the hell!” Zhe stood up immediately. Hearing such a loud voice inside, the door of the private box opened. A chubby head came in and everyone looked back. It was the owner of the restaurant.

"It's alright. We are playing games." Zhe said to the owner promptly. He was very acquainted and withdrew.

"You said this is...Ganoderma lucidum?" Zhe associated it with the packaged Ganoderma lucidum at home and found the great resemblance. Maybe the scene was just too unusual for him to think of. He couldn't help but lay on the table, watching the Ganoderma lucidum that grew out within five minutes. This Ganoderma lucidum seemed very authentic and convincing, with deeper color and a unique fragrance. He asked out of curiosity, "How did it happen?"

"It's because of Master Long Fei. In the Journey to the West, White Dragon Horse once said," Zhou Yuan thought about it thoroughly, so he began to say it in a pedantic way. "A real dragon should have a peculiar physique. And when his own saliva, also as known as Ambergris, fell on the ground, Ganoderma lucidum would grow out of it."

Hao Ning looked at Zhou Yuan, amazed that this moment god was really full of resource in any emergency. In the original novel, the White Dragon Horse said his urine could grow Ganoderma lucidum when poured into the ground. It was obvious that Zhou Yuan was not mistaken, but that mentioning the excrement while everyone was eating wouldn't be very elegant. So it was temporarily modified. Zhe was still a bit confused, so Hao Ning explained it for Zhou Yuan: "Long Fei just sprayed his saliva into the deep layer of this wooden table, so the wood grows out Ganoderma lucidum. This legend seems to be true. Of course, it is also related to Long Fei using magical power on this wood, and this wood was of good quality."

"What the hell!” Zhe burst into a foul language as he slapped his thigh. Hao Ning suddenly felt that this second generation of the rich family was also very cute. Zhe then called the owner in. "I want this table. Take no matter how much you want from..." He thought about it and blinked naughtily. "From my brother's account. He lost a lot to me when playing the King of Glory two days ago."

The chubby owner nodded consecutively. He felt strange as he saw the Ganoderma lucidum in front of Long Fei. He couldn't help but took a few more glances at Long Fei and went out quickly.

"It's a real eye-opener!" Although Zhe didn't lack such things as Ganoderma lucidum, it was his first time seeing such an interesting scene. Of course, Zhe was also aware that no one would believe such a strange thing even if he told them this story. He asked the boss for this table totally out of curiosity.

Half of the Italian dishes were served, and then Hao Ning understood why Zhe came here. This restaurant was not like a simple pasta restaurant outside. But every dish was specially prepared by the chef, such as the delicious Spanish blood sausage, though seemed bloody. Hao Ning was afraid to eat for his upset stomach, but others had a good delight. This was a good restaurant except for its long waiting time, leaving a gap for everyone to chat freely while drinking, only the chat, Zhe soon got familiar to everyone. Hao Ning was curious that Zhe never mentioned about learning Kung Fu again. It was like an endurance race. Both sides knew what cards each other had, but they didn't show them out.

Even so, Hao Ning tried his best but couldn't figure out how to teach Zhe this "Kung Fu" that he "borrowed". So he would be happy as long as Zhe didn't mention it.

"Brother Long..." Zhe finally determined Long Fei's title. Long Fei couldn't be happier when he heard this title. For one time, finally, it wasn't him that called other people "masters". Someone was willing to call him Brother Long. Originally, Long Fei wanted a title with some ancient styles. But after Zhe called out, Ye's face went red. Zhou Yuan quickly stopped Zhe, saying that the ancient name resembled the Chinese pronunciation of breast augmentation and that Long Fei would prefer a name with obvious gender differences. So it had come to be Brother Long. What Long Fei didn't realize was that this name sounded as if he was from a gang.

"Brother Long, I owe an apology to you!" Zhe raised a glass of water－he suggested drinking wine but Liu Shuai knew that Hao Ning could not drink, so he lied that people who practiced magical power could not touch these. Therefore, Zhe replaced the wine with water－Holding the cup, Zhe took a bow at Long Fei. Long Fei stood up quickly. "I promised you before to reconstruct your golden body and increase the incense you get. I can't mobilize my family resources because I am still a student. So I was planning to build several shopping and entertainment center cities near your temple when I graduate a few years later."

“So it's true?” Hao Ning asked curiously, "You really have a plan?"

"Of course," Zhe looked at Hao Ning seriously. "I, Wang Shizhe, never break promises." Zhe gave a tribute to Long Fei. "In my plan, you would have to wait another two years. But there have been some changes recently. Through my brother's relationship, the amount of incense on your side may be faster to rise.”

"Why?" Long Fei hasn't spoken yet, Liu Shuai asked for him, "Would you build a house over there?”

"Not us." Zhe shook his head with a smile. "A new subway is to be built there, and I have tried my way to open three subway stations near your Dragon Temple.

"Oh my God!" Long Fei was still confused with the relationship between subway stations and his own incense. Hao Ning, on the other hand, had already understood. Though Hao Ning was a master who could move everything, Zhe was a master of accomplishing great tasks with little effort by clever maneuvers. The reason why no one went to Long Fei's Dragon God Temple was mainly that it was inconvenient to go, which was surrounded by ragged factories. But if the subway was to build there, countless developers would build houses and living districts around its neighborhood, so the popularity would naturally rise. With those subway stations, it was hard to imagine how many people would flow through the temple every day. Moreover, the Dragon God Temple was generally a symbol of good weather and good fortune. With more mysterious propaganda, the number of people who made wishes and offered Sea Lanterns would certainly increase, whether they believed it or not. Hao Ning couldn't help but admire this bright college student. It seemed that he was a man of skill to come up with this method. Of course, it also related to the resources he could influence.

Hao Ning didn't spare his compliment. It was a good thing for Long Fei after all. He gave Zhe a thumb up. "Zhe, you are brilliant to come up with this method."

At this time, Liu Shuai and Zhou Yuan also understood. Seeing that Long Fei was still confused, Liu Shuai knew that he was not clear about what the subway stations meant to ordinary people, nor did he understand its influences on house prices and business relationships, so he suppressed the excitement and explained to Long Fei in a whisper.

"Heh-hey, thank you, Master Hao Ning." Zhe changed the title of Hao Ning several times in about an hour. Zhe smiled, and he frowned slightly, said quite embarrassedly, "But there is also a risk here."

"What risk?" Long Fei was about to raise his spirits after listening to Liu Shuai's analysis. He got nervous again. "Is there no way to open three subway stations?"

"Well, there are risks indeed." Hao Ning thought carefully, and he figured out that the plan was not perfect. "If it becomes a commercial real estate, or residential area, then the Dragon God Temple is kind of out of pace with its surroundings. The Dragon God Temple has a tiny income in one day. But the land would worth much more, if the mountain behind it is changed into a shopping mall or an office building. Moreover, those merchants can't get a penny from the Dragon God Temple.”

"Yeah, I expressed my concern with Zhe before." Ye frowned and also said. "I was thinking maybe I thought too much. Since even Master Hao Ning said so, the possibility might be huge."

“I heard...” Zhe took a bite of bread and thought carefully after drinking the soup, then he cautiously said, "...that some businessmen were already considering to blow up the mountain and move the temple to another place. In case it can't be moved, they plan to buy it, downsize it and move it elsewhere."

Hao Ning stared at Zhe and said nothing. He was thinking about what Zhe wanted to say.

"Blow up? Blow up the mountain?" Long Fei's harmless face immediately turned angry as Zhe was saying that. The water in each person's cup suddenly flashed up into the air and turned into a black cloud in the air, flying in private rooms with lightning in it from time to time. Although the dark clouds were small, the momentum was great, even a bit terrible. "You can't blow it up! Yu Fei's memories and ashes..." Long Fei saw Zhe and Ye's fear on their face, realizing that he was a little out of control. He apologized quickly and then took a snap, the black cloud flew in the air and disappeared.

Although Long Fei didn't say anything again, the excitement in his heart was still unable to calm down. The anger was all written on his face. He stopped talking sullenly.

"Calm down. It is not the final result," Hao Ning saw and understood Long Fei's aggresiveness. Long Fei was so concerned about Yu Fei that he would never let his ashes stay in Pingjing alone. The most likely place, of course, was on the back hill of the Dragon King Temple. The peace of Yu Fei's ashes was probably the bottom line of Long Fei, so he said to Zhe, "Although it's just a possibility, we are not sure. We should not let this happen. Especially the back mountain, it can't be moved.
