"..."
Kevin was silent for a moment, closed his eyes and replied, "Okay, I don't mind."
Perhaps other problems on the fairy ship are more urgent at this time, but this is a civilization that is countless times more mature than Beloberg. He is not an interstellar nanny who comes to help people solve problems for free.
"That's it!"
Qingque made a decision on his own, but then he remembered that the main character here hadn't spoken yet, so he quickly bent down and asked, "Um... little sister, how about taking us to your house to check on your grandfather's condition first?"
"Okay. I believe this elder brother, he is a good man..."
Chapter 106: Doctor Bailu is helpless
After finally deciding on the direction to go, the two quickly followed the little girl to the residence she mentioned.
Even though she was completely blind, her long life of blindness had made her almost completely accustomed to this dark world. She only needed to lean against the wall and grope her way, and her speed in leading Kevin and the others was not slow at all.
Not long after, Kevin and Qingque arrived at the home she mentioned - it was a small courtyard of about 200 square meters, which was not big in Changletian, but it could be said to be just about average.
In any case, with Xianzhou's capabilities, even if it is impossible to let every Xianzhou person live a luxurious life, the most basic food and clothing will definitely not be a problem.
Although this place is completely clean and it looks like someone cleans it all year round... isn't it a little too deserted?
"Little boy, are your parents not at home all year round?" Qingque poked his head out of the small courtyard and asked.
After all, if both parents were at home, there would be no need for such a young girl with a congenital defect to go out by herself to buy medicine or find a doctor, right? These parents are really not worthy...
"They...they used to be craftsmen from the Industrial Manufacturing Department. Once they said they were going out to fight in a war, they never came back."
The implication is very clear. If he went out to participate in the war and never came back, what could be the result?
But the most painful thing is not this, the most painful thing is that when her parents left, the little girl had just matured mentally. She may even remember that day very clearly, which is something she once had but lost in the end.
In just that instant, Qingque suddenly felt that he deserved to die!
Kevin immediately turned his gaze to Qingque, who understood and explained, "Because the Xianzhou Alliance often goes to war with the rich people like Buli, and sometimes the war situation will even stalemate on the planet for a month, so there are often many craftsmen who will join the army to repair the military machinery for the Yunqi at any time."
"Well, I am just a low-level fortune teller, and I am not familiar with these things..."
Although Qingque didn't understand, Kevin understood the consequences of war too well - even if the Xianzhou Alliance was the strong initiator of the war, the other side also had the blessing of "abundance". Even if they were generally defeated, it was not impossible to bite off a piece of meat from the Xianzhou.
As long as it is a war, it will not be a joke without any casualties. War... it is definitely not a beautiful thing.
However, apart from historical hatred, the Xianzhou Alliance's expedition against the Fengcao people was largely due to the top-level "Hunting" star god... The original meaning of the "Hunting" destiny includes the concept of "revenge", but continuous war based on hatred is already a kind of pathology in Kevin's eyes.
Even though he was still unclear whether civilizations that were not strong enough in this universe would encounter more unfair treatment, such continuous wars would undoubtedly not cause too much disaster to the most powerful high-ranking officials in the Xianzhou Alliance. Instead, a small defeat would completely devastate such a family.
Kevin has never actually met the top leaders of the Xianzhou Alliance or Luofu, but just from what he has seen now, he has not had a very good impression of those people.
"Xiaoyu... Is Xiaoyu back?"
Suddenly, a voice that sounded quite old and weak came from the room opposite the entrance hall. This caused the little girl who could still stand beside Kevin to run into the house immediately.
"Grandpa, Grandpa. I'm back... Are you okay?"
Watching the little girl run into the room, Kevin and Qingque looked at each other, and then followed each other in.
As soon as I stepped into the room, I could easily see the figure lying on the bed - to be honest, judging from the appearance, the grandfather the girl mentioned seemed to be only about 40 or 50 years old. But considering that the people of Xianzhou actually stop aging after reaching a certain age, it is not possible to estimate the other person's age based on appearance alone.
"Little fish, little fish..."
When he found his granddaughter running to his bed, the middle-aged man stretched out his hands tremblingly and began to gently stroke the girl's head. And this beautiful scene continued until... he suddenly saw Kevin and Qingque standing at the door of the room.
"You, what are you doing here again! Get out! Get out now!"
In an instant, the old man's seemingly weak body seemed to burst out with strength again. Not only did he shout out with great force, he even grasped the girl's wrist tightly, and in a moment it turned red.
Snapped--!
Even though he was treated like this, Xiaoyu gritted his teeth and said nothing. Fortunately, Kevin slapped the other person's hand away in time, and also took the opportunity to hold the other person down when he was about to turn over and do something.
But it didn't matter that he pressed it. Kevin could clearly feel that the other person's body functions were completely intact, and he couldn't help but frowned slightly.
"That is the demonic Yin body, which is equivalent to the end of the life of a short-lived species. It has nothing to do with physical defects."
Fortunately, at this moment, a petite figure with dragon horns and a tail suddenly came in from the door. After explaining it to Kevin once, he walked up and stared at the old man's struggling expression for a long time, then nodded again and said seriously: "Well, this is the demonic body for sure."
"The demonic body...?"
But this is completely different from what Kevin has seen before?
Before Kevin could ask, Bai Lu seemed to have known his doubts for a long time, and answered immediately: "The demonic bodies of those cloud riders before were seriously affected even in their physical bodies, which was an abnormal phenomenon. All along, the demonic bodies on the immortal boats are basically diseases that only appear in elderly people who are nearly a thousand years old."
"Their minds will gradually fall into a state of cognitive dissonance and collapse, but their bodies will not show any major changes. In comparison, the demonic bodies of those cloud riders are really strange. It took me a long time to suppress their symptoms... I rushed here as soon as I heard this brother's request."
At this point, Bai Lu paused for a moment, then shook her head as she looked at the old man again: "But I'm sorry, I can't save him."
Chapter 107: Kevin the Great Heals Diseases and Saves People
"Generally speaking, the demonic bodies are handled by the Ten Kings Department. The judges will appear in time to take the demonic bodies away before they have an attack, and will never let the demonic bodies develop to this extent. The various procedures afterward will also be handled by the Karma Hall, so there won't be many hidden dangers left."
As she spoke, Bai Lu helplessly spread her hands and made a small joke: "Maybe there are too many demonic bodies recently, so the judges of the Ten Kings Division can't catch them all?"
"..."
Unfortunately, this joke not only failed to make people laugh, but also caused the girl, who was a head shorter than her, to lie on her grandfather's arms and start crying.
"Grandpa, I don't want you to leave... Grandpa, please tell me what you are saying. I will listen to you from now on, Grandpa..."
This tragic scene made her look immature, and in fact, Bai Lu didn't break down her defense much.
"Ahhh, what can I do about this! It's like a short-lived creature that's about to die of old age. How can I save it with medical skills alone?"
As if feeling angry at her own incompetence, Bai Lu immediately rubbed her head vigorously, and even saw a trace of obvious electric current on it: "If it is three or four hundred years old and fell into the devil's body due to emotional shock, it is not difficult to say. At least the Ten Kings Division also has the kind of elixir that can help people cut off emotions and desires...Jie..."
"But this old man was obviously already at the age of death, and then he suffered some major stimulation, so he became like this now. It's not far from being a demonic body."
"Even if we can find that kind of elixir now, at most it can only turn the old man into someone with Alzheimer's disease... In fact, he won't be cured for more than a few days!"
As a professional doctor, Bai Lu certainly knows what it means to be compassionate. But it is also because of this that she cannot make random diagnoses. She should tell people what they are. How can she speak without thinking?
"Wait, so what you mean is that...the symptoms of this demonic body are actually natural mental shackles?" Kevin keenly grasped the key point in the other party's question and asked again.
"That's true, but..."
Before Bai Lu Xiao Long Nu finished her words, Kevin gently stretched out his palm and patted the other person's shoulder, sending the old man directly into a sweet dream. Then he placed his palm on the other person's forehead and carefully sensed it.
If Kevin hadn't just made a breakthrough in the application of the spiritual realm, there would probably still be no solution at this moment. But now we can only say that those three naughty kids can indeed be regarded as indirectly doing such a good thing?
And with Kevin's mental strength, it would naturally be no problem for him to sense and explore the mind of this thousand-year-old man.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the group was nervous and expectant, but they did not dare to disturb each other at all. They could only stare silently at Kevin's face, which had almost no expression.
Finally, after a few minutes, Kevin gently raised his palm and opened his eyes, which prompted Bai Lu to ask immediately: "How is it, is there any result for this brother?"
Kevin didn't say anything for the time being. But after learning the truth, he turned to look at the girl with expectant eyes beside the bed with a complicated look.
The actual situation was just as Kevin had expected. Perhaps some "abundant" factors were the root of the unknown, but the main cause of the appearance of the demonic body was that people's emotional threshold would continue to rise after a long period of time.
Although the death of Xiaoyu's parents, that is, the old man's children, was probably an important factor that caused him to completely lose the ability to feel positive emotions; but the "natural defect" of this little girl was the main reason why he often felt pain.
Whenever he thought of his granddaughter being a person doomed to a miserable life, negative emotions would begin to constantly impact his rationality, perhaps due to the factor of "abundance", so that the old man would fall into the so-called "demon body" on the fairy boat at an extremely fast speed.
But the saddest thing happens to be this - precisely because the old man values his granddaughter so much, the evil spirit's erosion of his sanity will take a long time to reach the bottom, so that he will fall into a state of sometimes madness and sometimes rationality.
It's funny...the good medicine for curing diseases has become a deadly poison. Why would such a contradictory thing happen in Luofu, the so-called land of longevity and wealth?
Thinking of this, Kevin shook his head slightly, temporarily giving up the idea of telling the others about these things right now, and said directly: "I do have a way to get him out of the influence of negative emotions for a period of time."
"But... I am not sure, even without the influence of negative emotions, how long this so-called 'demon body' can be delayed..."
After all, there are still many things rooted in the people of Xianzhou that affect its outbreak. How can Kevin be sure that he can solve them and allow this old man to completely break free from the limitations of his lifespan?
"What? That's amazing! I have never heard of anyone who can 'cure' the demonic body in all my memories!"
In Bai Lu's eyes, Kevin was just being too modest, okay? You were able to pull someone who was about to die back from the Ten Kings Division, how dare you be so modest?
If she had such ability, she would have been so proud of herself, and everyone in the Immortal Boat would come to her for help.
No, I must find a way to cleverly learn this skill from my brother... Well, of course I have to learn the art of controlling ice!
Miss Bailu immediately and quietly set a goal for herself, and the tail shaking behind her completely exposed her mood at the moment.
However, as she stared intently, Kevin simply stretched out his hand again and gently placed it on the old man's forehead, and even took it back after a few seconds.
"Finish...finish?"
"It's over."
"Is this the end?!"
Oh, no, there is indeed one thing that is not finished.
After Bai Lu's reminder, Kevin suddenly remembered something else. So he gently stroked Xiaoyu's head a few times.
"Wow... I, I seem to be able to see things suddenly, thank you, big brother!"
"Grandpa's beard is so long! And big brother is really tall! Hey... why does this sister have a tail behind her?"
Xiaoyu then even reached out and curiously touched the big tail behind Bai Lu, causing the dragon girl of the Chiming tribe to completely lose the outlook on life that she had developed over the decades since she shed her water.
"ah???!"
Chapter 108 Physics no longer exists!
"You... So why did you do that just now? Just by reaching out and touching them, you cured their demonic bodies and heavenly defects?!"
After a few minutes, the girl's grandfather finally woke up, and Kevin took Qingque and the two of them to thank him and leave the courtyard. During the journey, Bai Lu was still sticking to him tirelessly trying to get his medical secrets.
After all, he could cure all the terminal illnesses that the Xianzhou people had not been able to cure for thousands of years just by gently touching the head...If such medical skills became popular, all the doctors in the Danding Division would be out of work!
Especially after Bai Lu listened to Kevin's explanation of the specific pathogenic mechanism of the evil spirit in the old man, she fell into a state of scratching her head. If she didn't get an answer, she would not be able to sleep at night for at least this month.
If Kevin knocked on her head three times at this moment, within the limited time, her extremely smart brain might even make her crawl into Kevin's room in the middle of the night to humbly ask for advice...
"..."
Finally, Kevin, who was fed up with the explanation, said, "It's 'discipline', similar to a kind of shackles that act on the mind, which can block certain aspects of a person's memory and thinking. Unfortunately, I can't let you learn this kind of thing."
Kevin was able to imitate the effect of the "Commandments" because he had survived for tens of thousands of years and possessed the powers of many Honkai beasts, so he had strong enough mental abilities; but the most important point was that he himself had experienced Abonia's indescribable number of "Commandments".
And now, even if Bai Lu does have unparalleled spiritual talent, where can Kevin catch two Abonnias for her?
"Well, then, then, what's the matter with that little girl? Tianque can't be cured so easily, right?" Bai Lu asked without giving up.
"I believe that the spiritual realm is a difficult problem that even Xianzhou has not been able to overcome so far, otherwise it would not have been troubled by the demonic body for so long... But it is indeed a wonderful realm. With sufficient spiritual power, you only need to use it a little to observe the surroundings more keenly than the eyes..."
After speaking here, Kevin paused for a moment before continuing, "Fortunately, the child does have enough spiritual talent. I just need to give him some guidance."
In fact, it cannot be entirely attributed to luck - that kind of lack of vision will lead to the continuous enhancement of the brain's perception of other aspects, and thus the mental strength will also increase accordingly, so it can reach the level of opening the "wisdom eye".
Kevin himself had to admit that he was not that smart. "Discipline" was what Aponya left him, and "Insight" was the skill that Su left him at the end.
Yes, they are all useful, aren't they?
"Then I can always learn this skill, right?" Bai Lu immediately asked with great interest when she found that Kevin did not say that he could not teach her this time.
"Um......"
Kevin stretched out his hand and gently patted Bai Lu's little head with dragon horns. Then he shook his head and gave a very pertinent evaluation -
"Elm head."
".......ah?!"
Why is it that what this guy said is exactly the same as what the elders in the tribe said?
Could it be...could it be that what they said is true?!
