The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine

Chapter 334: Corpse Driver
Huang Xiaolong didn’t burst Lin Jing’s bubble for the moment. After all, with him around, neither human nor ghost could harm her in the slightest!

Moreover, Lin Jing had a “Thunder Charm” on her, which usually made it impossible for sneaky spirits to get close.

“Sister Jing, let’s go in and have a look,” Huang Xiaolong said with a playful smile.

At this time, several men and women came out of the club’s main entrance. Their faces were filled with satisfaction, as if they had enjoyed the utmost service inside the Ye Laixiang Club.

However…

Strangely, every man and woman had a wretched ghost with a fiendish green face squatting on their shoulders!

These were not evil spirits, but common wandering souls.

However, these sneaky spirits squatted on people’s shoulders and covered their eyes tightly with their hands!

Ghost Covering Eyes!

A ghost squatting on a person’s neck, covering his eyes with its hands—this was somewhat formidable. It could create extremely strong illusions and affect other senses. Under this state, everything people saw and did was essentially unreal, allusions!

For instance, if a pile of crap was put on a plate, and a person’s eyes were covered by a ghost squatting on their neck, the person would see it as a delicious meal, and even smell a peculiar fragrance!

Once these people left the Ye Laixiang Club, the wandering spirits ran off from them and jumped onto the necks of the new customers entering the club, covering their eyes with their hands.

Obviously, the customers coming out of the club, whether men or women, all had depleted Yang Qi. Even the three Auspicious Fires on their bodies were flickering, and their Life-Palace was floating weightlessly, and the Palace of Sickness was all gloomy.

‘Damn… there are skilled people in this club… playing a big game! Interesting, very interesting!’ Huang Xiaolong excitedly rubbed his hands.

“Little Long, look, there are many women who are leaving the club, all of them high-ranking ladies. There must be lots of male escorts inside the Ye Laixiang,” Lin Jing said indignantly. “I don’t know how Old Zhong investigated yesterday. He even reported to me that everything is normal in the Ye Laixiang Club!”

While talking, the two headed towards the main entrance.

At this time, two wandering spirits floated over directly, intending to squat on Huang Xiaolong and Lin Jing’s necks.

But they didn’t succeed in the end.

Huang Xiaolong’s aura casually leaked a bit, and the wandering spirits didn’t dare to approach him.

Not to mention Lin Jing, her Thunder Charm was not to be trifled with either.

That is to say, among the people entering the Ye Laixiang Club, only Huang Xiaolong and Lin Jing weren’t affected by the Ghost Covering Eyes spell! All others had a ghost squatting on the necks.

Upon entering, they saw a copper… toad placed on an altar table!

This was somewhat strange. Those doing business usually worshipped the Second Master, the Lucky Cat, or the Pixiu, but worshipping a toad—that was quite a sight!

“Hey Little Long, this…this…this is strange…why is there a toad worshipped at the Ye Laixiang Club?” Lin Jing was also frowning in confusion.

Huang Xiaolong pondered for a few seconds, his mind slightly moved, “Sister Jing, a toad is also called a chanchu, which is said to have the born ability to control corpses and subdue zombies, and even some chanchus are capable of driving away corpses. Uh…some lazy corpse drivers in the past would let their bred chanchus work for them, so they could enjoy their leisure time…”

“This is so strange…”Lin Jing was somewhat speechless.

In front, two rows of welcoming girls in cheongsam greeted guests. When they saw a customer, they would bend their waists uniformly and politely say,”Good evening, welcome to our club.”

Those male customers would walk past them with lustful eyes and let their tongues hang out as they admired these young girls in cheongsams, exclaiming, “Wow~~ They’re so beautiful…absolutely stunning…”

A slight stiffness signifies respect.

However, in Huang Xiaolong’s view!

Those reception ladies with jade-like beauty were basically—

Nothing but bodies of corpses!!!!!!

Yes, corpses!

They were indeed wearing well-fitted qipaos, but their faces and bodies were all covered with corpse spots. Their bodies emanated black death Qi and evil Qi, giving off a foul, disgusting smell of decomposition and decay!

On each of these corpses’ foreheads was pasted a “Corpse Suppression Talisman”. This type of talisman is most widely used by corpse drivers!

Also, in each corpse’s ears, linen was stuffed.

“Ye So stinky… Little Long, why on earth does it smell so bad…” Lin Jing also frowned deeply.

“Sister Jing, you need to stay calm now. Look at those receptionists…” Huang Xiaolong gave a hint.

Lin Jing automatically looked in that direction…

The next second, her eyeballs nearly fell out!

Her face turned ghostly pale!

Because Lin Jing was not blinded by ghosts, she did not see illusions; she saw the reality.

Those receptionists who, in the eyes of other guests, were like gorgeous women, in Lin Jing’s eyes just looked like what Huang Xiaolong saw… Corpses! Disgusting corpses that make you want to retch!

“Sister Jing, don’t panic. Didn’t you want to investigate this case? From now on, act like everything is normal…” Huang Xiaolong began to explain. “They are all zombies. But they’re the lowest level, we can say bottom-level zombies, also known as ‘walking dead’…”

“Little Long, why…why don’t any of these guests…they…they aren’t disgusted at all…just look, those paunchy men, they’re still leering at those qipao-wearing corpses…” Lin Jing felt a chill going down her spine.

“Sister Jing, all the people who came in, except us, are seeing illusions because of being ghost-blinded. So, what they see is all illusory. Like this disgusting corpse smell, they perceive as the attractive scent of a young girl.” Huang Xiaolong quickly explained. “I suspect that the one who controls this club is a corpse herder.”

“A corpse herder?” Lin Jing was stunned.

“Yes, Sister Jing, the toad you saw earlier is used to suppress corpses.” Huang Xiaolong shared his analysis. “Also, those walking dead have stuff lodged in their ears, which is a common trick used by corpse herders. Zombies, too, can upgrade. General walking dead are the weakest zombies and the easiest to control. However, if a walking dead comes into contact with human fresh blood, or a black cat, or hears the sound of thunder, it will evolve. Then, a corpse herder with insufficient Dao, will no longer be able to control them. There’s a rule in the corpse herding industry that corpse herders cannot have pets. They must not let the walking dead touch human blood. During the process of corpse herding, they must stuff something into the ears of the walking dead to avoid the zombie hearing thunder.”

Lin Jing was nodding as she listened.

“Sister Jing, if I’ve guessed correctly, the dismembered guy, that is the male public relations officer Pan An, must have known some secrets of this club. That’s why he was murdered, brutally dismembered…” Huang Xiaolong gave a chuckle. “Moreover, Pan An was bitten by the walking dead before he died…”

“Little Long…what…what do we do now…” Lin Jing was starting to panic now.

“Sister Jing, don’t be afraid. Act as if you haven’t seen anything and know nothing. We’ll walk together…past those two rows of walking dead, uh, those receptionists, act normal, try not to give anything away.” Huang Xiaolong seemed utterly relaxed.

“Hu” Lin Jing took a deep breath, then actively took hold of Huang Xiaolong’s hand, and they headed directly towards those reception ladies.

Huang Xiaolong noticed that Lin Jing’s palm was all wet with cold sweat!
