Working Prophet
Chapter 139 Everyone has their own unique moves
The little boy stood in front of the copper basin as requested by the priestess, and soon coughed from the smoke.
So he subconsciously wanted to hide back, but just half a step back, his mother held his head firmly.
The peasant woman was afraid that her child would not be able to complete the purification, so she pushed the latter towards the copper basin again.
The boy struggled twice, but instead of being able to get rid of it, he inhaled more smoke, and his cough became more severe.
Seeing this, her mother couldn't help but feel distressed, but she had to be ruthless in order to cure the disease.
Because too many messy things were added to the copper basin, the smell itself was not very pleasant, and it became even more choking when those things were burned.
The boy coughed loudly, and even his eyes were smoked so that tears flowed out.
"Be patient for a while. Once you have endured this for a while, you won't feel uncomfortable anymore." The voice of the priestess seemed to have some magic power, and soon the boy stopped resisting.
And as expected, the beautiful elder sister beside him didn't deceive him either.
After a while, the boy miraculously discovered that the smoke did not seem to smell as bad as before.
Not only is it not unpleasant, but it's even a little intoxicating.
This time, he didn't need to be forced by his mother. He moved his nose forward and took two deep breaths. His whole body suddenly felt light and airy.
As light as clouds, he wanted to smell it again, but the priestess blocked the copper basin with a piece of wood, then kicked out the heating flame under the copper basin and said, "Okay, come with me. Say your prayers, and the ritual is done."
When the boy heard this, he felt dizzy and followed Adele to finish the prayer.
His mother asked anxiously at the side, "How is it? Has the dirt been driven away?"
The priestess smiled, "You can let him try it on his own."
The peasant woman hesitated for a moment and then said to her son, "You move first, and remember not to run too fast."
Hearing this, the boy spread his legs. At first, he listened to his mother's instructions and just jogged, but gradually his speed became faster, and he could feel the wind blowing on his cheeks.
His chest was also rising and falling. In the past, it wouldn't take long before he would start to have trouble breathing, as if someone was holding his throat. However, this time, the feeling of suffocation was not as strong as before.
Even though he was running faster than usual, he could still barely breathe. It was like a dream to him. The boy shouted happily as he ran, "I can breathe again, I can." It's time to catch my breath!!!"
After witnessing this miraculous scene, the crowd became excited again.
Now many people really regard Adele as the messenger of the goddess Pisiya in the world.
Even Li Yu was a little surprised at this time.
Because neither the blood of the owl, nor the scales of the snake, nor the other spices in it obviously have this magical effect, which can actually relieve asthma attacks, so the only thing that works is the one that the priestess added at the end. Something dark.
But that thing is definitely not a glucocorticoid.
While everyone else was paying attention to the boy who could suddenly run, Li Yu focused his attention on the people who were near the copper basin. Like the boy, they all inhaled the strange smoke.
Especially the priestess who was closest to the boy. Li Yu found that the latter's eyes were a little wandering now, as if she hadn't woken up.
It happened that Adele's eyes met Li Yu's at this time.
A look of guilt flashed in her eyes, and she opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but the next moment she came back to her senses, washed her face with water, calmed down a little, and said to Li Yu.
"Prophet Merlin, I have cured my patient, now it is your turn."
Li Yu guessed something. This time he suffered from his half-hearted medical skills.
Because like gout, asthma is a disease that cannot be cured by the modern medical system, and the drugs used to relieve asthma attacks all have more professional names. Li Yu thought that whether it was the priestess herself or the Silver Moon behind her, The church should be helpless against this disease.
But he overlooked one thing.
That is, generally these indigenous churches, especially those that receive oracles and provide prophetic services, will more or less have some hallucinogenic drugs on hand to communicate with the gods.
Although this drug has many side effects and is addictive, it is indeed a natural painkiller, and it can also relieve airway spasm caused by asthma to a certain extent.
At least in terms of effect, it's still pretty bluffing.
In addition, Adele also proposed the so-called sinful food, and also educated the believers, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone. But that story involved some background research, and it was obviously not something the priestess could have made up on her own.
At this point, Li Yu was not too entangled. It had just reached the second round, and there were still more competitions to come, and Li Yu was not at all wary of the intervention of the Silver Moon Church.
Soon he turned his attention to his second patient.
He was a middle-aged man in his early thirties. Judging from his clothes, his family background should be pretty good.
Sure enough, Li Yu later heard him introduce himself as a small businessman. He usually resold some furs in the Western Region and quickly married a beautiful wife with the money he earned.
Speaking of this, the fur trader couldn't help but hesitate to speak, but since he had been selected and had the opportunity to cure the hidden disease that deeply troubled him, he finally forced himself to speak.
"About a year ago, I don't know what was wrong with that part of my body. Suddenly... it suddenly stopped being erect. No matter how my wife tried to tease it, it didn't respond. I also tried to fiddle with it many times in private. But it’s all the same.”
The fur trader's words aroused laughter from all around. Watching rich people being unlucky was a major entertainment for the poor at any time.
Li Yu was startled when he heard this. He didn't expect the priestess to be so bold and throw such a question to him in the second round.
Then he looked at Adele again and saw that the latter's cheeks were also slightly red at this time.
He wanted to block the triangular ears on the top of his head, but when he thought that the competition was still in progress, he couldn't do anything, so he could only stand there helplessly.
Li Yu immediately understood that this was probably the idea of the Silver Moon Church. They were probably wary of his ability to treat serious illnesses, so they simply took a different approach and specially selected some minor illnesses that looked inconspicuous but were very difficult to treat for him.
But this time, the Silver Moon Church was too clever to be fooled. Li Yu did have medicine to treat convulsions.
Because the construction cost of Shuangxiujiao's territory during this period was too high, and now he still had to build a giant crossbow, Li Yu's finances were almost unsustainable, and he did not plan to increase pepper sales for the time being, so he had to He began to look for ways to make money other than selling pepper.
It is best that this thing can be sold at a high price, but it will not attract too many people's covetousness like artificial gemstones, and it is best that it can accurately harvest those nobles.
Li Yu quickly thought of something - Viagra!
