Chapter 595 Treatment
"Then let's go out and find a place to practice swordsmanship," Wen Guying turned to Gong Er and Pang San and said, "Junior Brother Gong, Junior Brother Pang, let's go. I'll go ask the Xun Clan for a place."

"Okay, okay," Gong Er flapped his wings, jumped onto the table, and said, "I just want to move around, otherwise I'll just gain weight."

After Wen Guying and the other three left, Li Chuan planned to go out to meet those half-demons of the Xun clan.

"Wait a moment." Lao Xiaokai called out to him.

"What's wrong?" Li Chuan asked.

Lao Xiaokai glanced at the coins left by Wen Guying and said, "Were you worried that after you lifted the curse on the half-demons, they would do something bad to the human race? That's right. Half-demons are stronger than ordinary people in every way except that they can't practice cultivation. And once the cultivators of the human race enter the mysterious gate, they will not care about the lives of ordinary people."

"If the half-demons can leave the Cangwu Plains and form a unified half-demons dynasty, it will be hard to say who will rule the world in the future. Maybe the way of heaven will change as a result."

"If I were to solve your problem, I would also lift the half-demon curse at the same time. You might as well think about what I said. In the name of dispersing the White Night, drag them in and consume their strength."

"It's really a waste of your talent to be a doctor," said Li Chuan.

"Does what I said make sense?" Lao asked with a smile, "Brother Li, I really want to help you."

"What you said has a basis, that is, we can handle this matter," Li Chuan rubbed his brow and said, "Doctor Lao, I don't have this confidence, I just want to try my best. So even if what you said is right, I can't... start to betray my allies before the serious work is done."

He said: "I don't care what Brother Yuchen is thinking, whether the spiritual master has other purposes, or what the Xun clan leader and the other two clan leaders are thinking. I have to stand at attention first before I can get this done."

"I don't care about the affairs of the Half-Demon Tribe at all, and I don't want to interfere at all. So, as long as they can contribute and not make trouble or do anything under the intimidation of the Xuanmen monks, that's enough. As for the future, we have to survive first, then there will be a future." Li Chuan stood up, stretched his body, and said, "Let's go, I'll use the light to observe their bodies later, and you help me cover them. It would be best if you can let them transform or something."

"Leave it to me." Lao said with a smile.

After Li Chuan and Lao Xiaokai walked out, the Xun clan guards came over and took them to the backyard.

The backyard was very open, and dozens of half-demons from the Xun clan gathered in it, occupying only a corner.

Among them were men and women, old and young. When Li Chuan appeared, they all looked at him and whispered to each other.

"These two are guests of the clan leader. They want to know about the strange dream. Tell us your dreams again." the guard ordered.

The half-demons looked at each other and said nothing.

"You don't have to say everything. I'll just ask a few questions. It won't take long," Li Chuan said. "Sit down and talk. Don't stand." After saying that, he sat down on the spot.

The demigods also sat down.

Li Chuan asked: "Do ancient monsters appear in all your dreams?"

He observed the expressions of the half-demons, and finally an old half-demons female said: "No, I dreamed that I was picking leaves by the Sanqing River, picking golden leaves. As I was picking, the river water turned red and washed me away, and then I woke up."

"Neither do I." Another middle-aged male half-demon said, "But in my dreams there are roars of monsters, thousands of different sounds."

"How did you wake up?" Li Chuan asked.

The male half-demon replied, "I was awakened by a thunderclap."

"Thunder? Isn't that the roar of a half-demon?" Li Chuan asked.

"No." The middle-aged male half-demon said, "I'm sure of it." "I was also awakened by the thunder." A young male half-demon said, "I saw the corpses of ancient monsters filling up the Sanqing River. I was so scared that I wanted to cry, and then I was awakened by the thunder."

"..."

Under Li Chuan's questioning, the half-demons of the Xun clan told their dreams one by one.

After most of them had spoken, Li Chuan asked, "How was your sleep after you had the weird dream? Did you continue to have weird dreams, or did it end after one, and everything was back to normal afterwards?"

A young half-demon girl said, "After having a strange dream, the wizard will chant a spell for us, and after chanting the spell, we will not have the dream again. But..." She hesitated and her voice became softer. She said, "But after closing my eyes, I still feel scared, as if... the ghost of the ancient monster is staring at me."

"You are too sentimental." The middle-aged male half-demon said, "I don't have any. After the wizard chanted the spell, everything became normal for me."

"I felt it, too." The young half-demon said, "That feeling of being watched. I even feel it during the day when I'm awake."

"I have it too……"

"..."

"You can drink some tranquilizing soup." Lao Xiaokai said, and took out a pen and paper, saying: "I'll write a prescription for you. The herbs on the prescription are all common in the wilds of Cangwu. Just boil them according to your usual method of boiling medicine."

"Will it work?" asked the elderly female half-demon.

"It's useful. It can nourish your mind. If you sleep well, your body will be healthy." Lao Xiaokai said, and then he wrote down the prescription and handed it to the elderly female half-demon and said, "Go back and try it. Drink it for three consecutive nights and you will see obvious effects."

"What if it doesn't work?" asked the middle-aged male half-demon.

"Then come and smash my sign." Lao said with a smile.

Li Chuan said, "Doctor Lao is an excellent doctor. I relied on him to treat my illness. If you are worried, you can show the prescription to the doctor in your clan and make a decision."

"Can you cure anything else?" asked the middle-aged half-demon.

"It depends on what the specific illness is," Lao Xiaokai became more conservative and said, "In the human world, I am worthy of being called a miracle doctor. But half-demons are different from humans. When I was collecting herbs in the Cangwu wilderness, I met a half-demon who was seriously ill. At that time, I thought he would never get better, so I gave him acupuncture so that he could live more comfortably in the future. Unexpectedly, half a month later, I was saved by him, and his illness actually healed on its own."

The middle-aged male half-demon said, "Of course, we half-demons are in much better physical condition than you, and we rarely get sick. I've had a little pain in my shoulder from time to time recently, but I've never been injured here, and the magician in the tribe said it's fine, but it just stings from time to time, and it hurts a lot."

"Let me see." Lao Xiaokai walked over, looked at his shoulder first, and pinched his arm a few times.

"Stop pinching it, it's numb." said the middle-aged male half-demon.

"It's right to feel numb." Lao Xiaokai pinched it a few more times, then asked him to stretch out his hand so he could take his pulse.

His expression became serious and his brows furrowed tighter and tighter.

"What's wrong with me?" The middle-aged half-demon became nervous.

"I'm not sure. Half-demons are too different from humans. I can't see many things clearly and can't make a definitive conclusion." Lao said with a smile.
