The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine - Chapter 411
Chapter 411: Chapter 411: The Formation of Nine Infants and Ten Thousand Evils
Huang Xiaolong, with Sun Wei in tow, left the room.
Just as they stepped out, they saw that the corridor was inundated with puddles of blood seeping from the floor. The sinister fog, dense with negative energy hung over every inch, making it hard to see anything clearly. From all around, waves of ghostly energy surged out towards Huang Xiaolong and Sun Wei.
Sun Wei screamed, her hand holding the spirit lantern trembling. She quickly hid behind Huang Xiaolong.
With a cold smirk, Huang Xiaolong chanted the “Fire Dragon Spell”, which sent forth forty-nine fire dragons from his body.
The dragons, burning and fierce, lit up the ghostly faces hiding in the fog. Most were malicious ghosts—the worst of them were dressed in red, with even more powerful ones garbed in yellow and green.
Each ghost had died a different death—burned, fell from a building, hacked, stabbed, poisoned, hanged…
Everyone was fiercer and more cruel than the last.
But Huang Xiaolong was clearly even fiercer! Even crueler!
The forty-nine fire dragons roared in unison, spewing gold runes to disintegrate the malevolent ghosts, scattering their souls into smoke.
Huang Xiaolong, hand-in-hand with Sun Wei, slaughtered any ghost that crossed their path.
Countless malevolent ghosts vanished into smoke, screaming in agony.
The ghostly fog in the corridor was continuously burnt away by the flames.
Sun Wei eventually stopped being scared, seeing Huang Xiaolong bathed in golden light, so dignified she was nearly in awe! He was so cool! Just like a god in human form!
In that moment, Sun Wei realized just how much she loved this invincible man. To be his woman was a blessing she must have accrued in several past lives!
Soon, Huang Xiaolong had vanquished all the ghosts on the 29th floor, leaving one powerful ghost dressed in green who was kneeling before him, begging for mercy. “Spare me! Spare me!”
“Heh… I’ll spare you for now. I have some questions for you,” said Huang Xiaolong with a slight smile, as he trapped the green-clothed female ghost in the soul tube.
“All done. Sister Bai Hu, let’s go back to the room to interrogate the green-clothed ghost. We need to find out what’s really going on in this carnival hotel, and the details of Lan Ke’er’s death,” said Huang Xiaolong, chuckling lightly as he descended from the 29th floor with Sun Wei.
He didn’t immediately break the ghostly illusion on the 29th floor as it was filled with bodies. Since he wasn’t keen on dealing with them himself, he’d let the police handle it later. For now, he would avoid revealing the bodies to prevent causing more chaos.
Back in the room…
Huang Xiaolong and Sun Wei nestled in the couch.
Huang Xiaolong summoned the spirit tube, releasing both the soul of Lan Ke’er, along with the green-clothed female ghost.
Lan Ke’er was still sobbing, evidently heartbroken.
Sun Wei frowned, trying to comfort. “Don’t cry… Little Long has just avenged you, he killed all the sneaky ghosts on the 29th floor.”
“Lan Ke’er, what exactly happened, tell us,” Huang Xiaolong asked.
“Sob sob sob~~~Tonight… tonight… When my fiance was taking a bath… I went out for a stroll… As soon as I came out of the room, a child ran over and wanted to play hide and seek with me…” Lan Ke’er sobbed, her tone gradually filled with resentment, “I thought the child was cute, I … I played with it… I hid in the lift, waiting for it to find me… In the end, on the 28th floor, as soon as I got out of the lift, it smiled and told me that it had found me. Then… It was his turn to hide and I had to find him. He… He ran to the 29th floor… I followed in a daze… Then… then… They killed me, and they took my child too… my child… my poor child…”
Huang Xiaolong finally understood, the situation was extremely simple, Lan Ke’er was lured to the 29th floor by the ghosts, and tragically died on the spot.
Now, the only question was, why did the ghosts take Lan Ke’er’s fetus…
Moreover, it is said that in this hotel, there are more missing pregnant women than just Lan Ke’er!
There must be some hidden truth behind this.
Thinking this, Huang Xiaolong turned to look at the green-clad female ghost, shivering and kneeling at his feet. “You have evolved to the extent of a green-clad fierce ghost, which means you must have killed many people. Speak, tell me everything you know, don’t hide anything. Otherwise…”
“Yes, yes, I’ll speak, I’ll speak…I’ll tell you everything…” Encountering Huang Xiaolong’s magical methods, the green-clad female ghost didn’t dare to hide anything, spilling everything she knew.
“Sir, I…I used to be a waitress at the ‘Furong Inn’…” the green-clad female ghost said. “Furong Inn, was a…a hotel in the 90’s. Our boss, he has esoteric knowledge and keeps ghosts. Originally, Furong Inn had 5 floors, he obscured the top floor with a ghost illusion. Then… then he killed all of us, the waiters, and sealed our spirits in the inn. During the day, we stayed on the 5th floor, and at night, the boss let us out to harm people…mainly harming out-of-town guests. Business travelers, tourists to Jiangnan City… After killing these out-of-town guests, we took their cash, jewelry, and passbooks… and our boss… made a lot of money… By the 90s, he was quite rich. Moreover, since the victims were out-of-town people, it was generally hard to investigate. Even if the police came to investigate, they could not find any clues because their bodies were on the fifth floor, which was covered by the ghost illusion…”
“Later, the boss built several more hotels. Every time he built a hotel, he sealed us on the top floor and repeated the same trick of using the ghost illusion to obscure the top floor. For example, this hotel, it has 29 floors in reality, but most people can’t tell and think the 28th floor is the top…”
Hearing this point, Huang Xiaolong suddenly realized.
“That’s disgusting! So, all this… all this was done by the owner of this… this Carnival Hotel! He’s a beast in human clothing! To make money, he actually killed so many people…” Sun Wei said indignantly.
At least, all those fierce ghosts that Huang Xiaolong eliminated on the 29th floor just now were innocent people who died directly or indirectly at the hands of the Carnival Hotel’s owner!
“Sir, spare me! Spare me! Actually, I was just a waitress at the Furong Inn, I was also killed by the boss… Over the years I… I did harm quite a few living people, but I was forced by the boss… If I didn’t do that, the boss was going to scatter my soul… sob sob sob sob~~~” The green-clad female ghost cried and begged for mercy.
“Don’t beg for mercy yet…” Huang Xiaolong smiled. “Why did you attack Lan Ke’er? Just because she’s pregnant?”
“This was also something the boss asked us to do. This year, the boss wants… wants to collect 9 pregnant women, and they must all be six months pregnant,” The green-clad female ghost sobbed.
“9 women who are six months pregnant?” Huang Xiaolong’s heart stirred, and his brow furrowed immediately. “‘Nine Infant Evil Formation’! So it was to set up this malicious formation!”
“How many more pregnant women, six months along, do you need?” Huang Xiaolong asked with a stern expression.
“Sob sob~~ sob sob sob sob~~ We only need one more… ” The green-clad female ghost said mournfully.
