Even though the old man looked like a withered old man who was about to die,
Dressed in gray clothes, he looked like an ancient person.
However, everyone, including the bearded uncle, could feel the terrifying aura coming from his body.
Lin Yu felt like he was facing a dangerous predator.
The fear that originated from their souls reminded them instinctively.
The old man in front of him was a ghost!
However, no one present showed any fear.
Lin Yu looked at the rest of them. The hooligan's body was trembling, and the mature woman clenched her fists and dug her nails into her flesh.
However, no one dared to exclaim.
Everyone knew very well that if they showed any signs of abnormality now, what awaited them…was very likely to be death!
The old man's turbid eyes swept across them, and a strange "kind" smile appeared on his face.
Then, he spoke!
"Cough cough, everyone, welcome to Yellow Spring Inn!”
"This old man is the accountant of this Yellow Spring Inn. I'm here on the orders of the Lady Boss to assign work to everyone."
His voice was even more hoarse than his dry cough. Just by listening to it, there was a sinister feeling.
Then, the old man covered his face and coughed twice again.
"Cough cough…However, before we start working, we have a few rules in the inn that we need to tell everyone!”
When everyone heard this, they suppressed the fear in their hearts and pricked up their ears.
The bearded man's warning told them that what the old man was going to say next was probably the " basic rules "!
"First of all, regardless of whether you are assigned to the front desk or the kitchen, you must do your best to complete your work…If you slack off, hehe…the lady boss will not let you off easily!”
At this point, Lin Yu noticed that the old man's cloudy eyes seemed to flash with a trace of fear.
It seemed that he was also very afraid of that lady boss!
As expected, the "Lady Boss" was a ghost that was stronger than him. Even if it was the old accountant who was also a ghost and might even be a subordinate...
The lady boss might also attack him!
Lin Yu noted this down.
The old man continued,
"Secondly, the things in the shop have been in disrepair for a long time and are easily damaged…If you knock or touch them, you have to compensate according to the price.”
The old man deliberately emphasized the word "compensation", clearly implying something.
The few of them understood…In this ghostly inn, if they accidentally broke a plate, they would have to pay with their lives!
"Third, remember not to disobey the customers…Although the lady boss won't blame you if you offend the customers, many of the customers we serve are hot-tempered…If they find an excuse to lecture you, the lady boss won't protect you!”
After the old man finished speaking, he smiled sinisterly.
"Alright, do you have any more questions?”
The bearded uncle did not speak, and the other five naturally did not dare to ask.
The old man nodded in satisfaction and began to assign tasks.
"Alright, that big guy over there, you look big and round. You should go to the kitchen and follow Chef Meng to cut the vegetables for him!”
He was the first to point at the bearded uncle.
The bearded uncle nodded. The old man pointed at the open wooden door.
"Go out and turn left. It's the kitchen."
The bearded uncle looked at everyone and gave them a "take care" look.
Then, he walked through the wooden door.
Then, he looked at the mature woman.
"You are responsible for cleaning the guest room…turn right outside and go to the warehouse to get the tools from Madam Zhang. She will tell you what to do.”
The mature woman was a little dazed. She nodded with a pale face and finally imitated the bearded man and walked into the wooden door.
Then, the old man looked at the middle-aged man.
"You seem to have some knowledge…Go out and walk straight to the second floor. Look at the sign that says 'Accounting', and wait inside. I'll ask you to check the accounts.”
As he said this, the middle-aged man in a suit quickly left.
In the end, only Lin Yu and the bespectacled petite girl with her head lowered were left.
The old man sized up the two of them for a long time before slowly saying,
"These two little kids…they have soft skin and tender flesh. Go to the lobby and be the errand boys…You don't need anyone to teach you how to order and pass the dishes, right?”
"Go straight through the door…it's the main hall.”
As the old man said this, he smiled at the two of them. His shriveled face was filled with evil,
It was as if he was looking forward to the two of them "making mistakes".
Being left behind by this old ghost was already scary enough.
Coupled with his sinister and evil smile,
Lin Yu couldn't help but feel his hair stand on end. The petite girl next to him was trembling.
"Let's go."
Lin Yu tugged at the girl who was so scared that her legs had gone weak. He brought her to the wooden door.
After passing the old man in the accountant's office and through the wooden door, they arrived at a dilapidated and dark corridor.
On both sides were piles of sundries and firewood. When he looked up, he could see an ancient three-story building. It should be the main building of the Yellow Spring Inn.
The corridor was filled with cold wind, and there were malicious ghosts laughing repeatedly.
The girl was even more frightened.
As if to boost her courage, the girl who had been silent for a long time finally talked to Lin Yu in the corridor,
"Um…what's your name?”
"My name is Li…"
She was about to introduce herself when Lin Yu interrupted her.
"You don't have to say it out loud. I can just call you Xiao Li!”
"Similarly, you can just call me Brother Lin.”
