YM778.TV Chapter 252 - 189: Is the Haunted House Owner Not Human?_2
In their view, Xu Yang must have been enlightened, but they never thought such crude language would come from his mouth.
Feng Zhaoqing also looked a little awkward and said, “This man used to be the principal of Wu City Vocational Technical College. According to the current plan, he will join the Wu City Martial Arts Academy and be responsible for the logistics department.”
“What’s the use of such an idiot?”
Xu Yang was displeased and directly confronted him, “You’re a role model, yet so superstitious… As the dean of the Wu City Martial Arts Academy, I naturally have to take responsibility for the academy!”
“This…”
Feng Zhaoqing hesitated a bit.
The junior leader blushed, and questioned, “Master Xu, don’t you Daoists emphasize these things? How come when these things come out of my mouth, they become superstitions? You said you catch ghosts and subdue demons, isn’t that also a superstition?”
Xu Yang laughed, “Yin spirits, ghosts, monsters, and zombies exist in the world. Something that truly exists, how can it be called superstitious?”
“As for the theory of geomancy and destiny, it does exist… but this is a Martial Arts Academy. In the future, students will practice martial arts and Daoism here, and there will be martial arts and Daoist masters living here. In such a place, evil spirits are easily deflected and ghosts have a hard time invading, so why bother with geomancy?”
He paused, then went on, “Besides, I’m also trying to help you. You’ve never practiced martial arts, and you’re weak. What if you unintentionally embezzle student resources while managing logistics, and the young and energetic students punch you to death?”
With that, Xu Yang said, “Alright Captain Feng, I have other things to do, I’m going back first.”
Once Xu Yang left, everyone else naturally dispersed.
As for how the junior leader felt, Xu Yang couldn’t be bothered to care.
Back home, Liu Shishi and the others were not there.
Xu Yang made a call and found out they had gone shopping. He immediately contacted Ma Long and agreed to meet at the funeral home.
Just as he was leaving the house for the funeral home, Ma Long arrived.
He strode into the store and asked, “Xu Yang, what’s up?”
Xu Yang said, “The next Ghost Market is just a few days away, and I want to talk to you about opening a horror house in the Ghost Market… I’ve never been to a horror house before, do you know if there’s one in Wu City?”
If you asked Ma Long about the best clubs in Wu City, he would definitely know all about it.
But a horror house…
Ma Long didn’t play around with that.
Fortunately, these things can be found online. After searching on his phone for a bit, Ma Long said, “There’s a horror house in Wu City, but it doesn’t have the best reviews. I see the guests all gave it bad reviews, saying that the management of the horror house is lax, and there are often non-staff members posing as ghosts to scare the visitors.”
“No problem, I mainly want to understand the operation of the horror house.”
Xu Yang didn’t care, he stood up and said, “Book two tickets, let’s go around the horror house.”
Ma Long booked the tickets online, and immediately tookXu Yang to “Niujia Street” in Wu City.
“Niujia Street” is a village, but it’s right next to the city. Ever since Wu City’s “Yellow River Park” was flooded, the amusement park here began to develop. From the initial children’s toys, night market street, internet-famous bridge, to the current large-scale amusement park, business is booming.
They have everything from roller coasters to ferris wheels.
When the two of them arrived at “Niujia Street”, it was just past 2 p.m., but even so, there were already quite a few people there playing. At the entrance of the amusement park, there were even a few dinosaurs. When the dinosaurs were plugged in, they swayed and could even roar.
A staff member was handing out flyers under the scorching sun, dressed in a dinosaur costume. Xu Yang took a look. It turned out to be promoting the newly opened “Dinosaur Park” inside the amusement park.
Without lingering, the two headed straight for the horror house.
In a corner of the amusement park, they found the horror house named “Fengdu City”.
At the sight of the three words “Fengdu City” and the bloody entrance, Xu Yang felt a bit hair-raising. He asked a staff member, “What was your boss thinking? It’s just a horror house. Why is it named Fengdu City?”
The staff member patiently explained, “Our ghost house is built according to the mythological Underworld Palace. Inside are various facilities built to mimic scenes from the Underworld Palace, such as Huangquan Road, Bridge of Sorrow, and so on.”
Xu Yang and Ma Long looked at each other, both showing a smirk.
After showing the staff member the ticket booked online, Ma Long asked, “Can we go in now?”
But the staff member said, “Not yet. The boss has a rule that at least nine people need to be gathered before they can enter the horror house. And before entering, they need to sign a liability waiver.”
Ma Long laughed, “A liability waiver? Are you afraid of scaring your customers into a fit?”
The staff member earnestly said, “We have no choice. When our ghost house just opened, a young girl came. She was playing fine, but the next day she filed a complaint. She even provided a bunch of medical evidence, claiming that she was scared into a fit here.”
Signing a liability waiver is a rule of the horror house.
Before signing, the staff member routine queried if there was any history of heart disease or any diseases easily triggered by surprise. After the signing was complete, she brought some drinks and let Xu Yang and Ma Long rest on the side.
