id: "I saw you. Wait for a moment while I find a rope to pull you up!"Wei Jun, who hadn't slept all night, instantly dispelled his fatigue and quickly called over the nearby villagers he had hired. At...Chapter 175: Lingchi Torture

When Cao Er swallowed his own flesh, even though these doctors were accustomed to life and death situations and performing surgeries was routine for them, their faces turned slightly pale.

The two attendants and Cao Er's parents turned away and vomited upon seeing this scene. They only stood up after there was nothing left in their stomachs.

"Experts, please think of a way to help my child!" Cao Jingmin looked at everyone present, his voice trembling, no longer calm as usual.

"You quacks! I tell you, if anything happens to my son, not one of you will have an easy time!" At this point, Cao Er's mother had already vomited everything in her stomach and stood up, looking at everyone with a twisted expression and shouting sternly.

The doctors who had just come upstairs changed their expressions upon hearing what Cao Er’s mother said. They all showed signs of anger but none dared to say anything.

Several doctors who were originally planning to examine the patient immediately stopped in their tracks, slowly retreating back. At this juncture, before they even started treating him, if the patient ended up dead after treatment, it was uncertain what consequences awaited them.

Cao Jingmin naturally noticed the doctors' actions and couldn't help glaring at his wife fiercely. He thought to himself that she shouldn’t say such things!

"Experts, please forgive her for being a woman who doesn’t understand matters. Regardless of whether you can cure Cao Er or not, I won’t blame any of you. Please do your best!" After glaring at his wife fiercely, Cao Jingmin forced a smile and spoke to everyone in the room.

Although Cao Jingmin’s words were polite, no one dared move forward easily now. Even if he promised not to hold them accountable later on, they would have no recourse should he change his mind then.

The doctors deeply regretted coming here to help their friend; it was as though they were playing with their careers.

If the treatment succeeded, it would only be helping a friend with little personal gain, but if it failed, their career prospects would suffer. It was a loss-making deal from start to finish.

Since Xiao Yu followed into the room, he had been watching everything that happened inside. Not only were there around ten vengeful spirits continuously attacking Cao Er now, but even the hospital's malevolent energy and some wandering ghosts joined in.

About thirty souls were currently in the room; Cao Er floated above his sickbed while underneath it and around its surroundings were filled with spirits.

"Snore... Snore..."

Lying on the bed, Cao Er struggled weakly, breathing heavily. His throat felt blocked every time he took a breath, making sounds each time.

Gazing at Cao Er in front of him, Xiao Yu knew that he wouldn't survive the night. However, Xiao Yu didn’t wish for him to just lie there and die.

Xiao Yu's mouth opened slightly, and an invisible wave carrying his consciousness surged into the minds of the few vengeful ghosts, deeply imprinting within them.

The originally instinctively attacking vengeful ghosts were stunned for a moment when Xiao Yu’s consciousness was imprinted in their minds. Then, they let out excited howls.

Although they only had instincts left, they knew that this voice was the same as the one from that night.

Hence, unbeknownst to both Cao Jingmin and the nurses, the bandages binding Cao Er slowly loosened on their own. If someone with Yin-Yang eyes were present, they would notice it was these vengeful ghosts gradually untying the bandages around Cao Er's body.

Suddenly, Cao Er—who had been lying motionless—somehow gathered strength and leaped off the bed, rushing towards the table. He casually picked up a fruit knife placed there.

At this moment, Cao Er was surrounded by vengeful energy and Yin煞qi (evil qi). His consciousness was trapped in the illusions created by these vengeful ghosts and wandering souls.

The doctors and nurses inside the room who had witnessed Cao Er’s ferocity earlier all ran to one side as he grabbed the fruit knife. Having eaten his own flesh, what else wouldn’t they believe he could do

Even Cao Jingmin and Cao Er's mother instinctively stepped back when they saw him struggle up and grab the knife from the table.

"Baby, quickly put down the knife! Look at me; I'm your mother!" Seeing her son’s state, Cao Er's mother took a few steps forward trying to get him to drop his weapon.

"Don't go over there!" Cao Jingmin pulled back Cao Er's mother who was moving forward.

"Wail... Wail… What sins have we committed My baby is so obedient and kind; how could he suffer such torment" Upon realizing that Cao Jingmin had held her back, Cao Er’s mother sobbed while hugging onto his shoulder.

"You two go over there and take the knife away from him!" Cao Jingmin shouted at the nurses hiding beside them.

The two nurses glanced nervously at each other but didn’t move. They had just witnessed Cao Er’s viciousness; how could they dare to approach now With their meager earnings, would they risk it for a knife

"Whoever takes the knife from him will be made an official hospital employee!" Seeing that nobody was moving, Cao Jingmin said with a dark expression.

Upon hearing this, both nurses immediately showed eager expressions. They knew that being an official hospital employee not only meant better pay but also higher social status than what they currently had as mere lackeys who catered to others' needs.

The two individuals crept slowly towards Cao Er, attempting to snatch the knife from his hand.

"You evil ghosts, don't come near me! I'll tell you that my father is the mayor. If you dare come over here, I will make sure all of you regret it!"

Cao Er saw them approaching and said with a distorted face.

Upon hearing this, the two attendants stopped in their tracks, hesitantly glancing at Cao Jingmin. They only moved forward slowly when they saw Cao Jingmin nodding at them reassuringly.

Cao Er was standing in a corner of the room, his bandaged body appeared to have soaked in blood water that kept dripping onto the floor.

Xiao Yu didn't know how severe Cao Er's injuries were but from what he could see, they must be quite serious; it might even cover his entire body.

"Haha…… I am Nezha! Right now, I will cut my flesh for my father and mother!" Cao Er raised the knife in his hand, his eyes becoming unfocused as he spoke to the attendants nearby. However, there was no focus in his gaze.

Xiao Yu noticed that the grudge energy and yin evil aura around Cao Er were getting denser, with several vengeful ghosts surrounding him, emitting wails of anguish. Some had already attached themselves onto him.

Xiao Yu knew that Cao Er was now possessed by these vengeful spirits; he himself no longer had control over his body and mind. His entire being could be said to have been taken over by the ghosts.

"Jeje…"

Cao Er let out a strange laugh as he cut into his arm with the knife, tearing off a strip of flesh about one foot in length.

As soon as this piece of meat was severed from his body, Cao Er's arm began spurting blood. But he felt no pain and stood there laughing wildly while staring at the fallen piece of meat on the floor with an expression of obsession. Slowly squatting down, he picked up the meat strip in his hand and drooled as he gazed at it.

"Quick! Grab that from him!" Cao Jingmin shouted to the two attendants and others in the room, but everyone was too scared by Cao Er's appearance and dared not move. Even the attendants retreated a few steps.

The faces of both attendants turned deathly pale; anyone could see what Cao Er was planning from his actions.

Cao Er stuffed the meat strip into his mouth, chewing it with relish.

"Ah…" When Cao Er’s mother saw him eating human flesh like this, she let out a shrill scream and fainted.

"Secretary Gao, Secretary Gao! Send someone from the police force with a tranquilizer gun, quickly!" Cao Jingmin looked at his son who was ashen-faced and shouted viciously at Director Gao beside him.

"Secretary Gao, has the man sent by Old Master arrived yet" When Secretary Gao returned after making the call, Cao Jingmin asked his secretary.

"I have contacted them. They are almost here!" Secretary Gao's face was also pale as he looked at Cao Er with fear.

Xiao Yu, who was standing in the crowd, was taken aback when he heard what Cao Jingmin said. Did the Cao family bring someone from a mysterious sect

Standing amidst the crowd, Xiao Yu drew another charm to attract evil spirits and aimed it at Cao Er once more. The moment this charm hit Cao Er's body, Cao Er shuddered.

In no time, Xiao Yu saw that the window was occasionally being infiltrated by solitary wandering souls and vengeful ghosts who were now moving much faster.

As time passed, the temperature inside the room gradually dropped. Even with air conditioning on, people felt increasingly cold. Some doctors with weak constitutions shivered as they stood there.

Cao Er's entire arm was now just bones, and he then focused his gaze on his leg!

Some of the doctors not only felt cold but also vomited in a corner after witnessing Cao Er's gruesome self-mutilation.

After these doctors finished vomiting and could no longer bear to stay, they walked down to the first floor. When descending the stairs, their legs were wobbly and unsteady.

Solitary wandering souls and vengeful ghosts wanted to approach these mentally distressed doctors but were blocked by Xiao Yu's hand gesture.

Cao Jingmin watched his son with only bones left in one arm, twisted expression showing no solution. He wanted to take the knife from his son, yet whenever he moved closer, Cao Er threatened to slit his throat with it, leaving him helpless and anxious on the spot.

At this moment, Cao Er was unconscious but still mechanically cutting off pieces of flesh without any sign of stopping.

Beneath Cao Er lay a pool of blood that spread like a small river, dotted with chunks of meat.

The three veteran doctors began to realize something was amiss. At this point, Cao Er could be said to be on his deathbed; even an ordinary person would have succumbed by now given the amount of blood lost and lack of mobility.

Yet, aside from some stiffness in his limbs, Cao Er continued cutting himself relentlessly with each passing moment.to be a bustling supermarket.
