Working Prophet

Chapter 135 The most vicious curse

According to the peasant woman's description, what the little boy suffered was more like a curse than a disease.

He is healthy most of the time and looks no different from other people his age.

But once the curse attacks, the whole person will become very uncomfortable, including coughing, chest tightness, difficulty breathing, shortness of breath, and sometimes headaches and abdominal pain.

The peasant woman took her child to the lord to beg her, but the herbalist in the territory could not tell what kind of disease the little boy had. However, an old woman from the same village who had swept the floor at the temple said that her child might have been contaminated by something. got entangled.

The more the peasant woman thought about it, the more it made sense, but asking the Silver Moon Church to expel the filth would require a large sum of money, which she could not afford.

She happened to hear that Li Yu was going to compete with Adele in his medical skills, so she took her children and walked for three days and nights to try their luck in Green Field.

After hearing this, Li Yu pondered for a moment, then flipped through the "General Practitioner's Manual of Diagnosis, Treatment and Prescription" at hand, nodded and said to the peasant woman, "Okay, your child can count as one."

When the peasant woman heard this, a look of surprise appeared on her face. At this time, she didn't care whether Li Yu was a heretic or not, she pulled her son and kept thanking him.

Seeing that one spot was allocated so quickly, the crowd couldn't help but commotion and became more active. Before Li Yu could ask, many people had already shouted out their illnesses.

Li Yu then walked up to the man with the loudest voice and asked, "Where did you just say you hurt?"

The man was overjoyed, and took off his boots without further ado and showed them to Li Yu. He saw that his feet were red and swollen, especially on his left foot, where there was a bulge, which looked terrifying.

The man complained, "I got this strange disease about a year ago. First, my left foot was red and swollen, but gradually it became unbearably painful. Whenever I got sick, it was difficult for me to walk. You can rely on the support of your family, but it usually only lasts for half a month at most, and then it will gradually get better.

"The swollen place before will also subside, but recently the attack has become more and more frequent, and my right foot has started to hurt along with it, and now even my fingers are swollen."

Li Yu put on rubber gloves and gently touched the man's instep. The man immediately let out a scream.

Li Yu stood up again and asked, "What do you do?"

"I am the butcher of Black Rock City." The man answered despite the pain.

"Then you must eat meat often."

"Well, I eat meat all the time, and I can't live without meat. Generally, when people ask me to butcher pigs, they will leave me some meat as a reward, especially those nobles in the city. They don't eat pig and sheep offal, so they leave it to me to cook. Sausage."

"No wonder."

The butcher didn't know why Li Yu asked him what he did. As for eating meat, wouldn't everyone eat it as long as they could afford it? The butcher didn't think this had anything to do with his strange illness.

He just looked at Li Yu with expectant eyes, and kept saying, "How about it, can you choose me?"

"Okay, I can just cure your disease." Li Yu said.

When the butcher heard this, he roared three times excitedly. Without putting on his boots, he walked to the mother and son with the help of his family.

Then Li Yu picked out an old man and a woman through questioning.

Just when all the patients were guessing who he would choose as the last person, Li Yu pointed his finger and said, "It's just you!"

The crowd fell silent instantly, and everyone opened their mouths in disbelief.

The selected person also had a confused look on his face. He first looked around, and then he looked behind him, and then he turned around, a little uncertain, "You, are you referring to me?"

"That's right, it's you." Li Yu said.

"But I'm not sick!" The man was a mercenary. He heard that there was excitement in the green field, so he ran to watch it with his companions, but he didn't expect that he would become a crowd watching in the end.

After a pause, he added, "That's not right. My feet are very smelly. Is this a disease?"

His words also caused a burst of laughter.

Li Yu didn't laugh and asked again, "What's your name?"

"Tom, they call me Funny Tom." The mercenary shrugged.

"…………"

"Funny Tom. Did you have that nickname because you were a good teller, or because you were so young that the hair on the top of your head was almost gone, and you could see the bald skull already."

The mercenary named Tom fell silent when he heard this.

Good looks are the best stepping stone to love no matter what era you are in.

Especially for an ordinary person like Tom who comes from an ordinary background, but because of his hairstyle, he has missed his true love several times.

Once he specially picked a date with his beloved woman in winter, and he wore a hood all the time. The two flirted and flirted. Seeing that the relationship continued to heat up, he couldn't help it. He ran to the hotel and took off the cloak, and the other side was silent again.

Tom was ready to die.

Although he is usually humorous and jokes one after another, there are a few people who can truly understand the depression deep in his heart.

Tom asked in a trembling voice, "Can my hair be cured?"

"Okay." Li Yu said, "But there may be some side effects."

"What are side effects?"

"It may bring some other curses." Li Yu tried his best to explain in a way that the mercenary could understand, "You can consider it."

However, Tom said resolutely, "Don't think about it. What curse can be more vicious than having no hair?! If you can really make me grow hair again, then I am willing to directly join your religion and believe in your god!" "

After saying that, he took big steps and stood together with the butcher, peasant woman and others.

At this point, Li Yu has completed his selection.

It happened to be at this time that an uproar broke out on the other side.

Li Yu looked in the direction where Adele was, and happened to see the girl also choose someone, and that person turned out to be a blind man!

After learning that he had been chosen and had the opportunity to see again, the blind man couldn't help but shed tears of excitement.

There was also a sound of praise for Pisiya from the crowd.

Adele looked pious, and walked towards another person while the believers were worshiping. This time the crowd screamed louder, because the person finally chosen by the priestess was even more exaggerated than the previous blind man, and simply lacked one leg.

Li Yu couldn't help but narrowed his eyes.

As expected, the Silver Moon Church had no intention of openly competing with him on medical skills from the beginning, and directly raised this competition to the realm of "magic".

Even the drama of blind people regaining their sight and severed limbs regenerating was staged.

I don’t know, I thought there was a sequel to Fullmetal Alchemist.

But since the Silver Moon Church is not taking the right path and wants to play magic, Li Yu doesn't mind letting the other party see what real magic is.
