The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine
Chapter 930 - Chapter 930 Chapter 930 The entire village has been enthralled

Chapter 930: Chapter 930 The entire village has been enthralled! Chapter 930: Chapter 930 The entire village has been enthralled! It was already 2 or 3 in the morning, and Huang Xiaolong hadn’t stopped for a moment. After dispersing the summoned ghosts, he took Ma Chuxia and several Huaxia Metaphysical Society Taoists to the village where the Dongying underworld enforcers had appeared last night!

The group drove two cars along the provincial road and quickly arrived at a village near the suburbs.

Behind the village lay rolling mountains.

They got out of the cars.

“Little Long, according to what that skin-peeling ghost said, the village should be not far ahead,” Ma Chuxia stretched out her hand and pointed towards the front.

Dimly, they indeed saw a small-scale village that seemed to have around a hundred households. However, it was pitch-black, silent as death, looking just like an abandoned, desolate village.

A faint Yin energy lingered above the village.

The atmosphere was chilling.

“Mr. Huang, this village… indeed… indeed seems peculiar,” a Taoist from the Huaxia Metaphysical Society said with a trembling voice beside Huang Xiaolong.

“What’s so peculiar about it? I’ve been to weirder places. Enough, let’s enter the village first,” Huang Xiaolong said with a smile, a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

Huang Xiaolong led the way, and the group entered the village, their steps uneven as they walked in.

“Little Long, it really is strange. This village has such weak Yang energy; it doesn’t seem like there are people living here at all…” Ma Chuxia observed her surroundings.

“As that skin-peeling ghost said, this village has likely been ravaged by the Dongying underworld enforcer, and all the villagers’ souls have been snatched away~~” While speaking, Huang Xiaolong took out several incense sticks, recited the Fire Bell Curse for illumination, and muttered to himself, “You filthy thing~~ I will find you~!”

As the group moved through the village, they looked into each household; the Huaxia Metaphysical Society’s Taoists even knocked on a few doors, but there was not the slightest response.

Behind the village, the dark mountains loomed like a giant beast lurking in the night. The mountain wind blew, making whooshing and rustling sounds in the forest, exceedingly eerie, yet devoid of any sign of life.

“Let’s not bother knocking anymore. Just go inside and have a look,” Huang Xiaolong walked up to the doorway of a house and recited an incantation to pass through walls, simply diving right in.

Ma Chuxia leaped with agility, effortlessly vaulting over the wall.

There was a courtyard behind the door.

They crossed the courtyard and entered a large house.

In the glow of the firelight, they saw no one in the room.

Huang Xiaolong stepped towards the bedroom.

In the bedroom, a man and a woman lay stiffly on a bed!

They seemed like a couple, middle-aged.

Huang Xiaolong approached and saw that the couple’s faces were pale as paper, and the root of the mountain on their Sijiugong had already fractured.

“Little Long, are they dead?” Ma Chuxia whispered from the side.

“Not dead. They have indeed had their souls snatched away. But…” Huang Xiaolong hesitated for a moment. “Humans have three spirits and seven souls, this couple, both had two spirits and five souls taken… This indicates that the Dongying underworld enforcer’s soul-snatching technique is still lacking.”

After pausing, Huang Xiaolong continued, “However, in such a situation, this couple won’t live much longer…”

“Little Long, the villagers here are innocent, we must save them,” Ma Chuxia said anxiously.

“Of course, they are now akin to being in a vegetative state,” Huang Xiaolong’s eyes narrowed slightly. “We must find their lost two spirits and five souls before dawn, otherwise, they’ll die unnatural deaths.”

Immediately, Huang Xiaolong hurried out of the house.

He went into several more households in succession, and the situation was exactly the same. Every villager, from eighty-year-old elders down to mere several-year-old children, had lost two spirits and five souls and lay like corpses–precarious as candles in the wind.

Seeing this, Ma Chuxia cursed furiously, “That Dongying underworld enforcer is nothing but a beast! Not even sparing the elderly and the children!”

“Which is why it must die,” said Huang Xiaolong, his eyes cold.

“Little Long, what we need to do now is retrieve the lost souls of all the villagers!” Ma Chuxia said with urgency.

Huang Xiaolong didn’t reply but looked towards the mountains behind the village before saying, “The Yin energy is dense in the mountains; it’s either gathered many fierce ghosts or… the villagers’ souls are all in the mountains… Let’s go!”

Huang Xiaolong led Ma Chuxia and the metaphysical society’s Taoist priests along the rugged mountain path behind the village, entering the mountains. Even though they had incense sticks to light their way, the vast mountains were completely silent, shrouded in darkness, which made the few Taoist priests from the metaphysical society feel as if something in the dark was spying on them, causing them to shrink their necks in fear.

As they walked on, a vast valley appeared before them. A chilling, eerie wind blew out from the mouth of the valley, carrying with it a terrifying Evil Qi. The valley ahead gave off the impression of the netherworld.

“Here we are, just inside that valley,” Huang Xiaolong said with a smile, quickly striding forward.

After taking a few steps, Huang Xiaolong suddenly felt that indescribable, strange sensation well up inside him again. He blurted out, “The Dongying netherworld’s ghost guards are in the valley!”

“Hm?” Ma Chuxia gave a slight start.

“My intuition.” Huang Xiaolong gave a smile, and then took a handful of talismans out of his canvas bag, instructing everyone to stick them on.

“Each person gets two talismans. One is a ‘Soul Concealing Talisman,’ rendering you invisible to ghosts and deities. The other is an Invisibility Talisman, rendering you invisible to the living,” Huang Xiaolong explained at a rapid pace. “We’ll sneak in quietly. I really want to see what sort of tricks these Dongying netherworld’s ghost guards are up to. They’ve gathered the souls of all the villagers here for some peculiar purpose…”

After Ma Chuxia and the other Taoist priests from the metaphysical society stuck the talismans on themselves, they disappeared instantly as if they had evaporated from the human world.

Huang Xiaolong was leading the way at the front, and he saw a group of ghostly spirits standing guard at the mouth of the valley.

These ghostly spirits were all dressed in clothing from the Dongying islands, with some even wearing military uniforms, wielding samurai swords, their faces twisted with ferocity.

However, since Huang Xiaolong and the others were all bearing talismans, these fierce spirits failed to notice them at all.

Ma Chuxia glared at these Dongying fierce spirits, her eyes filled with killing intent, but fearing that she might alert the enemy, she restrained herself and did not make a move.

Huang Xiaolong whispered to her secretly, “Little wife, don’t be hasty. Not one of these little Dongying ghosts will escape. When the time comes, we’ll reduce them all to ashes and smoke.”

Inside the valley!

It was a large hollow!

The Yin Qi roiled!

A horde of grim Dongying ghosts stood guard with various weapons, surrounding the area.

Besides, about a hundred Huaxia souls were bound and lined up in rows, looking pitiful, weeping and wailing.

Huang Xiaolong saw clearly that among these hundred or so souls, not all were ghostly spirits – they were indeed the secondary souls and the five spiritual souls of the villagers that had been snatched away!

So they were all here!

Huang Xiaolong also discovered that beside these souls, a large group of living people was being controlled!

These living people, men and women, old and young, were all dressed like simple villagers. Each one was restrained by the Yin Qi, unable to move, their faces filled with terror and despair, their bodies shaking uncontrollably like sieves.

Apparently, these villagers were the ones that the Dongying netherworld’s ghost guards and the Dongying ghosts had snatched from the nearby villages!

Just then!

Huang Xiaolong saw a figure in the valley, clad in dark armor. In his presence, aside from the Yin Qi, there was an innate formidable pressure that was natural to the ghostly spirits and fierce souls.

The figure held a pitch-black chain with a razor-sharp scythe attached to one end, exuding an evil chill.

He seemed extremely arrogant, disdainful, and noble. Suddenly, he let out a roar, “Baka yarou!”

Whoosh~~~~

He swung his chain, ensnaring the neck of a living person.

With a “whoosh,” the soul of the living person was pulled out.

The individual’s eyes went blank as the body collapsed limply to the ground.

With a casual flick of his hand, the soul obediently lined up beside the secondary souls and the five spiritual souls of the villagers.

“Wuuu~~ wuuuuu~~ wuuuuu~~~” The soul of the living person let out a pitiful cry.

“Hehe~~ This is interesting, right in front of me, you’re reaping the souls of our Huaxia people… good, very good…” A cruel light flickered in Huang Xiaolong’s eyes.
