As soon as the people at the hospital heard what Huang Xiaolong had to say, their hearts, which had just been put at ease, were filled with dread again. Their faces froze, resembling awkward clown masks.

“Now, I have caught all the nine ghosts in the hospital, so, for now, no innocent lives will be lost… However, this is just a temporary solution, not the root of the problem,” Huang Xiaolong said seriously. “A formation was cast on the inpatient building by someone or a ghost. That’s the source of the haunting!”

“A formation

Everyone was astonished and unsure.

“Yes, this formation is called the ‘Nine Palaces Nine Evils Endless Death Burial Formation’…” Huang Xiaolong named the formation.

Nine Palaces Nine Evils Endless Death Burial Formation?

Just hearing the name was terrifying. It was awfully intimidating.

Thus, the faces of the hospital director and others turned deathly pale.

“The feature of this formation is that anyone who dies unexpectedly within the range of the formation becomes a trapped ghost, unable to reincarnate in hell. Only by finding a replacement, that is, directing their anger at another innocent person, can they be freed. The ghost that finds a replacement naturally moves on, the newly deceased ghost stays behind to harm others… An endless cycle that never stops!” Huang Xiaolong explained.

“This is too sinister!” the deputy director was terrified, “Director, have we offended anyone for them to set up such an appalling formation… This is terrifying, we would have lost so many lives had Master Huang not taken action.”

“We haven’t crossed anyone! Don’t you know that?” the director said miserably.

“We never offended anyone, whenever there were disputes between doctors and patients, we always resolved them properly…”

“Regardless of whether your hospital has offended anyone, what we need to do now is to break this formation.” Huang Xiaolong continued. “If we don’t break the formation and the hospital experiences another accident, resulting in a death that is not due to sickness or natural causes… The Nine Palaces Nine

Evils Endless Death Burial Formation will kick-off again!”

“No! Master, you must help us break this vile formation!” The director was crying and snuffling, nearly falling on his knees before Huang Xiaolong.

“Don’t worry, since I’ve taken the money, I’ll get the job done.” Huang Xiaolong grinned.

“Could I get a pen and paper, please?” Huang Xiaolong asked.

“Sure, sure, let me get it for you.” The director hurriedly found a piece of paper and a pen and handed them to Huang Xiaolong.

Huang Xiaolong pondered for a moment and then began to draw on the paper, “For now, based on the Bagua diagram of this inpatient building, I have determined the nine positional coordinates.”

“Qian palace, Kan palace, Gen palace, Zhen palace, Zhong palace, Xun palace, Li palace, Kun palace, Dui palace… Done,” Huang Xiaolong put down the pen. “Director, it’s not convenient to act during the day. At night, you find some workers, take shovels and such tools, and dig pits according to the places I have marked on the diagram.”

“Okay… I… I’ll arrange for the doctors and male nurses of our hospital to take care of it.” The director was quick to reply.

“Get some people with guts.” Huang Xiaolong added.

“Huh? Brave ones?” The director was puzzled.

“I’ll find some hard-working laborers, those guys have a lot of guts, they even dare to move bodies in the morgue.” The deputy director hurriedly suggested.

“That works.” Huang Xiaolong nodded in agreement.

“Master, will we… will we… excavate something?” The director asked shakily.

“About that… I won’t say for now, you’ll know when the time comes,” Huang Xiaolong teased.

After capturing the nine ghosts, the hospital was completely safe for now, and as clean as a whistle. Before it got dark, Huang Xiaolong had a good sleep in the VIP ward.

Hehe, there was still Sister Jing’s scent on the hospital bed…

Awesome!

The director personally brought over a dinner rich in delicacies.

9 p.m.

It was already dark.

A flower bed near the inpatient building of the First People’s Hospital.

A group of people was gathered here.

Huang Xiaolong, the director, the deputy director, the head of security, and a group of laborers all engaged in strenuous physical labor.

The area was cordoned off and dozens of security personnel formed a human wall, preventing ordinary people from joining the spectacle.

A few security guards were in charge of providing illumination with powerful flashlights.

“Director, how should we dig?” the head laborer asked with a blank look.

“Master, please give the instructions,” the director said, nodding and bowing to Huang Xiaolong.

“Big brother, dig down at this spot.” Huang Xiaolong jumped onto the flower bed and plucked a few flowers. “The soil underneath is soft, it will be easy to dig.”

“Alright! Brothers, let’s get to work!” The team leader of the workers shouted, leading his men to dig in the direction Huang Xiaolong had pointed out, brandishing their hoes with determination.

After about ten minutes…

“Eek! We hit blood! Oh my god!” The workers were suddenly so scared that they jumped back, and some even sat down with a thump.

Their faces were ashen.

They saw streaks of blood seeping out of the hole they had dug, filling the air with a strong smell of gore.

The dean and the vice-dean were also frightened, their faces pale and bodies trembling.

“No worries, it’s nothing serious.” Huang Xiaolong calmly took out a demon-destroying talisman from his canvas bag, lit it up, and threw it into the pit.

Bang! !!!!!

A thick cloud of smoke billowed out.

After the smoke dissipated, it appeared that all the blood in the hole had evaporated.

“Keep digging,” commanded Huang Xiaolong.

“No more digging, this is too weird, way too strange.” The team leader shook his head fervently.

“Hey, get digging! I’ll add an extra 2000 yuan per person!” the vice-dean shouted.

As the saying goes, enough money can make a devil grind the mill. Although the workers were terrified, an extra 2000 yuan was equivalent to half a month’s work at the construction site. They gritted their teeth and continued to dig!

Before long…

“We found something! Seems like…like…a human head…” a worker screamed. It seemed, however, they were not too scared of a human head…

Rightly so, these workers often worked in hospitals, carrying bodies, especially those killed in car accidents, handled different body parts like limbs, skulls, intestines. They had even carried brains! So, what’s a mere head?

On the contrary, the dean, the vice-dean and others were so scared that they were trembling, muttering, “Amitabha, may the Bodhisattva bless us.”

The team leader nervously lifted the head out.

Under the strong flashlight, the head looked lifelike, like it belonged to a freshly dead person.

The eyes, ears, nose, and mouth were well preserved, the skin hadn’t decayed, it was just covered in soil.

The head had been cut off, the cut at the neck was smooth and flat.

At the forehead of the head, there was a yellow talisman.

“Everyone, pay attention. This is one of the formation triggers for the ‘Nine Palaces and Nine Cuts Infinite Death Burial Formation’,” Huang Xiaolong said casually. He then tore off the talisman from the head, shook it, and it instantly turned into ashes.

This made everyone gasp!

The moment Huang Xiaolong ripped off the talisman, the “fresh” human head visibly decayed at an alarming rate, shriveling up. The skin and flesh melted away as if made of water.

In the end, all that was left was a startling skull.

The people around screamed, almost collapsing from shock…

What’s happening tonight, wave after wave, made their hearts pound in fear. Thanks to Huang Xiaolong’s calmness, their admiration and reverence for him were deepening…

“From the looks of it, this formation was laid down many years ago, so looking for the person who deployed this formation now might be a bit unrealistic,” Huang Xiaolong muttered.

‘Was it a human or a ghost that laid down this sinister formation? From the looks of it, it’s likely to be a human. Interesting! Does Binhai have a real Taoist with supernatural powers? If I could meet the person who laid this formation, that would be truly interesting…l can discuss with them…they cut off nine heads for the formation, which is so immoral…Oh, it would have been fun if I had met them…l would have toyed with them till they doubted their own existence!’ fantasized Huang Xiaolong.

Now that the first formation trigger had been destroyed, the rest of the work would be much easier.

Once you do something twice, it becomes easier. The workers, incentivized by the rewards, followed the map given by Huang Xiaolong and eventually dug out the remaining eight heads and burned the talismans on them.

In the end, the lead worker buried the nine skulls behind the hospital’s hill.

“Dean, that settles this matter.” Huang Xiaolong looked at the dean with a wide grin. “Give me the 300,000, in cash.”

“I’ll give it, I’ll give it, Master, you’re indeed a living idol! On behalf of all medical staff at the First People’s Hospital, as well as all the patients and their families, we express our deepest gratitude and respect.” The dean bowed 90 degrees respectfully to Huang Xiaolong.
