The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine-Chapter 374 - : Good Boy, Call Me Master
Chapter 374: Chapter 374: Good Boy, Call Me Master
While the malevolent spirits were busy cleaning up the blood and bodies at the scene, Huang Xiaolong gave a nod to the Paperman Gao Tianxiang.
“Sir, I’ll be right on it. “Paperman Gao Tianxiang turned and left.
Soon, Paperman Gao Tianxiang drove a large truck into the lawn.
Getting out of the truck, he opened the back and started unloading paper men that had been prepared in advance, one by one!
The other hostile spirits came up to help.
Before long, a long line of paper men, numbering in the hundreds, was arranged on the lawn.
These paper men were crafted to look like the old master Gao, the eldest members of the Gao family’s first generation,
The second generation members of the Gao family,
And the third and fourth generations too.
All of them were representations of the Gao family members who had been executed by Huang Xiaolong!
Yan Pianpian’s teeth chattered, she just couldn’t understand what Huang Xiaolong was up to.
In her eyes, each lifelike paper man seemed terribly eerie, frightening, even; some even seemed to be winking at her!
Once the paper men were arranged, Huang Xiaolong deftly took out a stack of prepared charm papers from his canvas bag and began sticking one onto each paper man.
After finishing the task, Huang Xiaolong started to chant silently-
“Spirit of soul and paper, all senses clear, embody the four symbols, inside formless… Rise!”
As the charm papers on the paper men ignited and their essence was absorbed, one after another, the paper men stood uniformly upright in an instant!
They were alive!
All of them!
Each paper man started moving about, their eyes spinning around at random.
“Gah… Gah… Gah…” Yan Pianpian had completely abandoned all ladylike decorum, a strange noise erupted from her throat, and she placed both hands in her mouth, biting on her fingers until they bled while being completely unaware. Her eyes, wide as bull’s balls, her delicate body swaying persistently.
Yan Pianpian had always loved horror films since she was young, and she had seen countless of them, but none of the horror films could truly scare her.
But today, she was utterly terrified!
Ordinary paper men were afraid of wind, fire and light. Hence these paper men were flapping in the air just like tattered clothes being blown by the wind.
Huang Xiaolong opened the Soul Cylinder and let out many more malevolent spirits, then he issued a command!
“Whiz~~~whiz~~~whiz~~~”
The malevolent souls began possessing the paper men.
One by one, the paper men that had been suspended in mid-air, landed firmly on their feet, their eyes becoming eerily wicked. The possessed paper men, being protected by a gloomy aura, were not afraid of wind, fire or light and even exhibited some characteristic signs of invulnerability, making it hard for ordinary charm papers to harm them.
“Look… the souls of the Gao family who have perished are still around, go and devour their souls, and strip away their memories,” commanded Huang Xiaolong.
Paperman Gao Tianxiang opened his mouth, spewing out the soul of Master Gao, which was quickly devoured by the paper-man version of him, thus attaining the old man’s memories.
“Hahaha! How honored I am to have all of you here to celebrate my eightieth birthday! I’m truly flattered!” The paper version of Master Gao guffawed heartily, then walked straight towards Yan Pianpian, clasping his hands in salute. “Miss Yan, a million thanks for coming all the way from Beijing to Binhai to celebrate my birthday. This is truly a gratifying honor! If you ever need anything in the future, don’t hesitate to ask. The Gao family will be at your service!”
“Don’t…don’t… don’t come any closer… what… what kind of monster…are you…” Yan Pianpian was so terrified that she kept stepping backwards, almost stumbling over.
The paper version of Master Gao that stood before her eyes, after swallowing Master Gao’s soul, not only attained his memories but even his speaking style, tone, intonation, and even his thought patterns. He was the exact replica of the real Master Gao!
Yan Pianpian truly felt as if Master Gao had come back to life!
But she clearly saw Master Gao not only die but also his body being melted away.
Soon, the paper figures had devoured the souls they had impersonated from the Gao Family, seizing all their memories from when they were alive! This situation was as if they were replacing the host, usurping a nest!
Simultaneously, all the corpses at the banquet turned into pus, and were washed clean.
The traces of blood were also cleaned out, leaving no stains behind.
Huang Xiaolong then took out a thick stack of “Memory Erasure Charms” that he had prepared several days ago, and handed them to the paper figures of the Gao Family for them to complete the final task.
They were to erase part of the memories of everyone present!
The people who had previously supported Huang Xiaolong, such as people from the Lin Family, the Shu Family, the Sun Family, had all been blinded by illusions. However, they hadn’t left the Gao’s rental villa district, and under the influence of illusions, they were strolling around the area of the villa.
The paper figures of the Gao Family were extremely efficient, applying Memory Erasure Charms on the foreheads of these people.
They then applied the Memory Erasure Charms to the surviving members of the Gao Family.
…
Half an hour later.
The paper figure of the Gao Family’s patriarch, stood on the podium, laughing loudly. “Hahaha~~~ respected guests! The speeches are over! Now, please enjoy your meals!”
The seating area on the lawn.
“Sis, this old Gao really has the gift of the gab. what’s the time now? He just finished talking, I’m so hungry now,” Lin Zicong complained discontentedly to Lin Jing who was sitting next to him.
“Hmm…let’s eat,” Lin Jing nodded.
Suddenly, she frowned. “It’s strange, just now…something seemed to have happened…but…I can’t remember now…”
Lin Jing gently tapped her head.
“Pfft~~~ Sis, you’ve been so stressed with work recently. Why not take a break?” Lin Zicong joked.
The Gao Family’s attendants brought tables full of food and wine to the lawn.
The banquet was buffet style.
Guests were happily selecting the foods they liked, holding glasses of wine, and chatting away joyfully.
The atmosphere at the banquet was extremely harmonious.
The paper figure of the Gao Family’s patriarch, glass in hand, was making rounds on the lawn with his children and grandchildren. Occasionally, he would laugh heartily. “Hahaha~~~ Brother Lin! How long has it been since our old brothers drank together? Come, come, come! Let’s have a toast!”
The Clan Leader of the Lin Family, Old Master Lin, also laughed as he clinked his glass with the paper figure. “Brother Gao, cheers!”
“Oh… Brother Sun! Come, come, let’s toast! Oh, this is your granddaughter Weiwei, isn’t it? My, my, women do get more attractive as they age, she’s grown so pretty! Wonderful, beautiful!”
“Brother Shu, we have to collaborate on that piece of land, hahaha~~ everyone makes money!”
…
The paper figure of the Gao Family’s patriarch skillfully handled all the guests, ensuring every guest was well attended to.
At that moment!
“Sis! How come my teacher is here? And he’s eating over there?” Lin Zicong was munching his food while gazing at Huang Xiaolong, who was eating at a table with Yan Pianpian.
“My God…how did Little Long sneak in?” Lin Jing’s eyes widened, “He… he’s really not afraid of trouble!”
“Let’s go, sis. Let’s go and take a look!” Lin Zicong picked up his plate and started making his way to Huang Xiaolong.
Meanwhile, Huang Xiaolong was wolfing down his food, saying to Yan Pianpian, “Hey, you’re my servant girl now. You know how a servant should serve and please her master, right? Come, be good, call me ‘Master’… call out.”
