The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine

Chapter 512: Chapter 512: Corpse Ghost

This morgue was a place of extreme quietness. One could even say it was the quietest spot within the entire city, seeing as the living were usually prohibited entry.

But now, the whole morgue resonated with thumping sounds, as countless corpses astonishingly began to rise!

This scene was comparable to one straight from a horror movie.

However, this was not fiction, but reality!

In an instant, Xia Jian, Ouyang Lingling, and Ji Yianxue were all terrified and their bodies broke out in goosebumps!

On the other hand, Huang Xiaolong looked completely composed, even showing a hint of delight, as if a naughty child just received a new toy!

“Protect the miss!” Xia Jian yelled out suddenly.

Ouyang Lingling promptly moved to place Ji Yianxue behind her.

In the blink of an eye, the corpse of “Su Jing” was the first to lunge forward!

A chilling wind swept through, as the corpse turned zombie-like, opened its bloody maw, and lunged to bite Ji Yianxue!

“Foul creature!” Forsaking any prior respect for the dead, Xia Jian, fueled by his protective instincts, exerted his full power and punched towards Su Jing’s rushing corpse.

Bam!!!!!

A thunderous crash!

Xia Jian’s punch of True Qi imploded on Su Jing’s chest, leaving a gaping hole. It caused so much damage that skin tore, bones broke and dry organs spilled out, sending the corpse flying away.

Had it been alive, it would have been killed instantly by this punch. But…it wasn’t. It was a corpse!

Corpses don’t feel pain!

The next second, Su Jing’s corpse astonishingly just got up from the ground, howled a few times, and charged back again! It appeared utterly fearless of death!

Simultaneously, all the bodies stored in the morgue hopped out of their beds and crowded around them.

Ping Pong~~~~Ping Pong~~~~

The sound of breaking glass echoed as bodies leaped out of the refrigerated compartments, charging towards Ji Yianxue and the others like a flood.

It was a terrifying scene to behold, the entire population of the morgue, three layers deep, loomed towards them.

Each corpse’s eyes were wide open, a flickering spectral fire in their pupils, faces twisted into a monstrous sneer, terrifyingly looking like creatures out to feed on humans!

“Damn! We can’t kill these corpses!” Sweat dripped down Xia Jian’s forehead. In his life, he had survived countless battles but never had he encountered anything like this.

You can’t kill a corpse? That doesn’t make sense! Corpses should already be dead!

The morgue was rapidly filling with a chilling aura, like a boiling torrent!

“I fear I’ve brought this trouble upon you,” Ji Yianxue admitted in dismay, before glancing towards Huang Xiaolong.

Huang Xiaolong’s face held a cheery expression, appearing completely unconcerned about the approaching corpses.

“Xiaolong… We’re being surrounded by the corpses. What should we do?” Ji Yianxue pleaded anxiously.

“Hahaha~~~ Don’t worry, since I’ve taken your money, I’ll do the job well.” Huang Xiaolong chuckled, then casually took out a talisman from his bag, tossing it perfectly onto Su Jing’s forehead!

The talisman instantly self-ignited, transforming into a golden symbol!

The Taoist seal permeated the corpse of Su Jing and suddenly exploded from within, releasing a chilling scream. The next second, thick green smoke and foul-smelling pus spewed from its orifices. The corpse collapsed on the spot, no longer moving.

“It’s dead!” Ouyang Lingling exclaimed delightedly.

To be precise, Huang Xiaolong didn’t “kill” the corpse; instead, he eradicated the specter inhabiting it.

Following this, Huang Xiaolong thrust his right fist forward, creating a blast as powerful as tidal waves, which swept everything in its path. Amidst this incredible force, countless Taoist seals floated and sank, the divine power in them was unpredictable!

Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff!

All the corpses swept by the fist wind started bleeding from their orifices with dark green blood, smoke engulfed them, and they collapsed to the ground.

With just a few punches and kicks, Huang Xiaolong had taken down all the corpses.

Withdrawing his punch, Huang Xiaolong saw Xia Jian, Ouyang Lingling, and Ji Yianxue staring at him with disbelief.

In their eyes, they looked at him with admiration, bewilderment, and respect…

“Mr… Mr. Huang… you were… just… just like a god descended to earth!” Xia Jian stuttered.

Even sharp-tongued Ouyang Lingling was mumbling, “Miss, your 30 billion was really worth it… His technique alone must be worth more than 30 billion.”

“Little Long, you… you saved my life again.” Ji Yianxue sighed in relief. “But, what on earth just happened?”

“Simple, someone sabotaged this morgue in advance.” Huang Xiaolong laughed. “The person who wants to assassinate you must have known that you were going to visit the mortuary of the First People’s Hospital, so they got here first and cursed the corpses. This way, no matter what, you would’ve been attacked by the corpses. I guess, the one who made this move is not the average assassin, but a Taoist who knows magic.”

“A Taoist…” Ji Yianxue tensed up.

“Miss Ji, it seems your enemy will stop at nothing to kill you. Look, there are hitmen, gunmen, even Taoists.” Huang Xiaolong said with a smile.

Xia Jian felt a chill run down his spine and quivered, “It seems that every move we make has been calculated by the enemy! There must be a mole! There must be a mole!”

The situation was indeed tricky with the enemy hiding in the shadows.

“Hahaha~~~ What are you guys worrying about? Rest assured, I love to duel with Taoists.” Huang Xiaolong said nonchalantly.

“But, Mr. Huang, we’re effectively being led by the nose by our enemies right now… probably, they know our every move, enabling them to set up traps and assassination schemes with ease!” Xia Jian was panicked.

“That’s fine, we simply need to act cautiously, dismantling their tactics as we go. All these traps they’ve racked their brains to craft are useless. In the face of absolute power, they amount to nothing more than a minor annoyance.” Huang Xiaolong chuckled. “This technique of ‘bodily-possession’ is not a big deal. It’s merely a specter possessing a corpse, but the corpse has to be replaced every seven days and cannot be exposed to sunlight, or it will rapidly decompose.”

“Strictly speaking, this method can’t be referred to as ‘bodily-possession’, it’s basically raising a ‘possessed corpse’. True ‘bodily-possession’ allows a specter to totally revive and reincarnate through a corpse, becoming a living person.” Huang Xiaolong explained. “Let’s go!”

“Huh… Does such a spell of ‘bodily-possession’ really exist in this world?” Ouyang Lingling looked at Huang Xiaolong in disbelief.

“It does. I’m proficient in it.” Huang Xiaolong replied seriously. “Lingling, if you die someday, don’t worry. I’ll collect your specter and enable you to reincarnate through a body. By that time, I’ll find you a body of a dirty old man for you to reincarnate in…”

“Yuck~~ So disgusting, stop talking, please.” Ouyang Lingling reeled back in disgust.

The four of them then left the morgue.

Outside, the sun was shining bright. Bathing in the sunlight, they finally drove away the terror shadowing their hearts.

“Little Long, had it not been for you, I would have already died twice. The enemy this time is really terrifying.” Ji Yianxue suddenly laughed. “But with you here, I feel like there’s nothing to be scared of.”

“Of course, did you think I took the money without doing anything?” Huang Xiaolong replied lazily. “What’s the plan next?”

“Piece together the map! Find my mother!” Ji Yianxue said resolutely.
