Chapter 763: Chapter 763: Ghost Entrusting in Dream

A feast of corpses?

Most of the people present didn’t know what Huang Xiaolong was talking about and assumed he was deliberately provoking the Chu family.

Those who had a grudge against Huang Xiaolong, like Chu Hao, all shared the same thought – ‘God, he’s really a tough customer to please!’

Those ghosts stared at Huang Xiaolong, their eyes filled with disgust.

Old Master Chu’s face was embarrassingly uncomfortable.

“You seriously take good intentions for that of a donkey’s liver and lungs.” Ma Chuxia slightly shook her head, took out a revealing talisman, tossed it into the air to set it aflame, and a golden light directly shone on one of the Eight Immortals table.

Boom!!!!!!

The illusion was broken.

Everyone could see clearly.

The originally bright and clean Eight Immortals table, was now covered in dust with chunks of dirt on it. The table was also filled with patterns.

The older generation recognized these patterns as those engraved on coffin lids.

Furthermore, the dishes on the Eight Immortals table had transformed into filthy, cobweb-covered objects, blood-streaked rats, crushed cockroaches… The worst part was the several pots of stewed meat soup, in which corpses’ fat was churning, emitting a foul smell, with the teeth and nails of the dead occasionally surfacing.

Shocking!

The room fell into horror.

Old Master Chu was both furious and frightened, his body trembling.

“If you like it, then go ahead and eat.” Ma Chuxia sarcastically smiled, then glanced at the ghosts mixed in the crowd with the corner of her eye.

“Alright, let’s go.” Huang Xiaolong grinned, taking the lead in leaving.

The ghosts glared at Huang Xiaolong with resentment as he left the antique house, but did not rush up to accost him. Huang Xiaolong naturally did not expose these ghosts, not wanting to stir up trouble. Both sides seem to maintain an unspoken understanding.

“Where is the cook? Where is Chu Hansheng? Bring Chu Hansheng out to me! What’s going on? I need an explanation!” The Old Master Chu shouted furiously.

Outside the house, in the bright sunlight, there was a faint murmur of chilly winds and the whispers of ghosts.

“Little Long… This isn’t my grandfather’s fault…” Chu Tingting ran out hurriedly to explain to Huang Xiaolong.

“Little Long, why didn’t you take action to exterminate those troublesome spirits?” Ma Chuxia was a bit puzzled. “Could it be a plan to draw them out?”

“Master, what is the current situation?” Old Master Jin was taken aback. Jin Mengqi at his side, reassured him. “Grandpa, don’t worry. Master Huang’s exorcism and ghost manipulation techniques are unparalleled. No matter how many ghosts hide in Chu Family Village, Master Huang can kill them all! ”

“That mangy dog said that a shocking event was going to occur in the Chu Family Village, and I’m curious to see what it could be.” Huang Xiaolong smirked playfully, a look of anticipation in his eyes.

“Huh? Little Long, where did that mangy dog go?” Lin Jing looked around puzzledly.

“Damn it! That guy escaped!” Xia Ying frowned.

“Hehe, it’s no big deal. Let it go. After all, it’s just a dog.” Huang Xiaolong sneered dismissively. Immediately he turned to Ji Zhengyu. “Young Master Ji, you lead the martial artists of the Jin family to hunt for food in the vicinity. From now on, we’ll fend for ourselves when it comes to meals in Chu Family Village.”

“Yes, yes, Master. Just looking at the stuff on the dining table makes one’s skin crawl.” Ji Zhengyu seemed a bit scared.

Immediately, Ji Zhengyu led a group of martial artists of the Jin family to set up traps for hunting around the Chu Family Village.

Representatives of the four major families in Binhai, as well as the tycoons of Binhai, all looked toward Huang Xiaolong, holding him in high esteem.

“Feel free to wander around. Don’t be scared, I’m here. No one can harm you.” Huang Xiaolong grinned.

On the other hand, Old Master Chu and Chu Hao rushed out anxiously, trying to explain.

Huang Xiaolong walked aimlessly in the village, with his wives, Ma Chuxia, Xia Ying, Song Yuru, following close behind.

At this time, some townsfolk were spotted squatting outside a mud-brick house, smoking.

These people had specifically come to Chu Family Village to shoot a documentary.

Huang Xiaolong watched them with amusement, noticing two men and a woman among them who were surrounded by a gloomy, ghostly aura!

“Little Long, those people have been targeted by ghosts.” Ma Chuxia whispered in Huang Xiaolong’s ear.

Huang Xiaolong walked over without any obvious reaction.

The three people engulfed by the ghostly aura were chatting.

“F*ck, I had a terrible dream last night. I dreamt that I was tied to a stone pillar and skinned alive. It almost scared me to death!”

“Really? I also dreamt of being skinned. I was wide awake, watching a freak peel off my skin perfectly intact, without damaging it at all. They actually did quite a good job.”

“Don’t scare me, I have a low tolerance for this… you really had a dream about being skinned? So did I! I swear, I dreamt about being skinned alive!”

…

Huang Xiaolong understood then. The three people possessed by ghosts had the same dream last night, where they saw themselves being skinned!

It seems that a ghost was dream-walking them simultaneously. The tragic fate of being skinned in the dream was likely to come true soon. They had become the target of a ghost!

Huang Xiaolong walked over and asked with a smile. “Are you all extras?”

A middle-aged man with a scar across his face, enveloped by the ghostly aura, eyed Huang Xiaolong. “What extras? I have a proper job, I’m a surgeon! However, some so-called director found me a while back, said he wanted me to participate in a documentary. So, here I am in Chu Family Village.”

“I work at an insurance company.”

“I am a cook.”

“I sell barbecues.”

…

Each of them announced their occupations in turn.

“How strange, these are all professionals from various fields. Why would they be brought here to shoot a documentary?” Song Yuru expressed her confusion.

“I suppose, you all came to Chu Family Village after receiving a hefty fee, right?” Huang Xiaolong teased.

“Heh, people would risk their lives for money, as a bird would for food.” The surgeon with the scar across his face laughed. “I’m not ashamed to admit it, I received a prepayment of 300 grand, with another 300 grand after the documentary is shot. I couldn’t pass up such a good opportunity.”

“Ah, I see.” Huang Xiaolong nodded, then he cast a meaningful glance at them before he left with his wives.

“Little Long, those people have been targeted by ghosts. Their fate is cracked and coming disaster is inevitable. They are still oblivious to their fate.” Ma Chuxia said with sympathy in her eyes. “Little Long, save them.”

“Save them? No need.” Huang Xiaolong shook his head. “We need not concern ourselves with this.”

“Huh?” Ma Chuxia was stunned and horrified.

Ignoring those in peril?

Ma Chuxia knew Huang Xiaolong very well. Even though he sometimes seemed nonchalant and irreverent, he was kind-hearted and loved ghost hunting. He would definitely intervene whenever a ghost plotted against a living person.

But now, he was choosing to sit back and let it be. Why was that?

Huang Xiaolong didn’t explain further as he casually strolled around Chu Family Village with his wives.

Soon, Ji Zhengyu returned from a hunting trip bringing with him quite the haul.

Grouse, wild boar, and sheatfish… the bounty was plenty.

Huang Xiaolong found an open space, gathered everyone, and started cooking the game.
