Chapter 1687: I'll Handle It
"No, I'm just worried about Mr. Chen's safety..." Having said this, Wang Yu wished he could slap himself twice.
Worried about Mr. Chen's safety? Did Chen Yu's safety need him to worry about it?
"Alright, go back." Chen Yu said indifferently, then left this place with Shandao.
In a small apartment, Chen Yu met Shandao's wife, Mikiko.
She was so thin she was skin and bones, her skin was waxy yellow, and her breathing was rapid, with wheezing in her lungs.
It was indeed as Shandao had said; normally, she only had one month left to live.
"Mikiko, how are you feeling?" Shandao sat by the bed and held her hand: "I'm back."
"Shandao, I..." Mikiko struggled to get up.
She used to be a full-time housewife, and whenever Shandao returned, she would have dinner ready for him.
But now, she was willing but unable.
"Don't get up, I've invited a Yisheng for you." Shandao hurriedly supported her and let her lie back down.
He looked at Chen Yu: "I'll go get your medical records now."
"No need for medical records." Chen Yu said indifferently: "The results from the hospital checkup are nothing more than a liver tumor that has already spread and is inoperable."
"How... did you know?" Shandao was startled; could Chen Yu tell a person's illness at a single glance?
"It's an obvious matter that can be seen at a glance, there's nothing strange about it." Chen Yu smiled slightly: "But I can tell you, this is a misdiagnosis."
"Misdiagnosis? You, you mean Mikiko isn't sick?" Shandao was startled; he looked at Chen Yu in disbelief.
"Of course, she isn't completely healthy either." Chen Yu pondered for a moment and said: "Before your wife got sick, did she go to the Southeast Asia region?"
"Yes, she went to Southeast Asia for a trip. Does this have anything to do with her traveling?" Shandao was slightly stunned.
"It has a connection. Let me ask you," Chen Yu looked at Mikiko: "When you were in Southeast Asia, did you go to any remote temples and have a verbal altercation or conflict with anyone there?"
"I..." Mikiko hesitated. She thought for a moment, organized her thoughts, and said: "Something did happen there."
"Tell me in detail what happened. Only when I figure out the cause can I help you." Chen Yu said.
"I was... traveling alone there. I arrived at a mountain where there was indeed a temple, but that place was not a tourist attraction."
Mikiko recalled: "I went in to look around, but when I came out, an old monk blocked my path. He... he made excessive demands of me."
"What kind of excessive demands?" Chen Yu asked again.
"He demanded that I engage in sexual acts with him. I was very angry and slapped him directly across the face." Mikiko said: "The monk was clearly very angry, but he didn't stop me. However, as I was leaving, he said a strange thing, saying that I would be hit by a Curse."
"Buddhism is prevalent in those parts of Southeast Asia, but the Buddhas worshipped are not all the same. The temple you entered actually worshipped an Evil Buddha." Chen Yu's expression was somewhat serious.
"So, what is Mikiko's condition now?" Shandao asked, shocked beyond measure.
"She has been cursed." Chen Yu said: "The thing in her liver is not a tumor, but a type of thing similar to the Five Poisons driven by a Descending Head Technique."
"What should we do now? Is Mikiko... still saveable?" Shandao looked at Chen Yu with a pleading face: "I beg you... please help her."
"You believe me now? Perhaps I'm just spouting nonsense." Chen Yu smiled faintly.
"No, Mr. Chen, I believe you are definitely not spouting nonsense." Shandao shook his head repeatedly: "Because you could tell at a glance that Mikiko's condition was not an illness, I believe you must have a way."
"It's a very simple matter, it doesn't require much effort." Chen Yu said: "A Sorcerer uses their own essence and blood to refine the Five Poisons, then refines them into a Descending Head, placing it in the human body to become a Curse."
"It is not a difficult task to drive these things out." Chen Yu said as he walked forward and said to Mikiko: "Close your eyes, it will be over in a moment."
"Mikiko, do as Mr. Chen says." Shandao nodded slightly to Mikiko, who wore a look of doubt.
She sat up straight and closed her eyes.
Chen Yu walked behind her, then took a deep breath, curled his right hand, and pointed remotely into the void toward the center of Mikiko's back.
*Swoosh*... A burst of finger force surged from his fingertip and struck the center of Mikiko's back.
Mikiko let out a muffled groan, and then a mouthful of black Qi was sprayed out.
The black blood that landed on the ground was moving, and soon, a six-legged insect scurried out from the black blood, paddling its limbs, and quickly ran toward Mikiko again.
This scene scared Shandao out of his wits. Just as he was at a loss for what to do, Chen Yu at the side brought his fingers together into a Sword Finger and pointed into the void at this strange insect.
With a *swoosh*, the insect was sliced into two halves by the Sword Qi. After finishing all this, Chen Yu slowly withdrew his hand.
"Mr. Chen. This..." Shandao looked at everything before him, appearing somewhat at a loss.
"The Descending Head in her body has been forced out, but because your wife was possessed by this Descending Head, her Origin has been damaged and she needs a month of quiet recuperation."
Chen Yu said as he took out a bottle of medicine: "The pills in this bottle calm the Qi and replenish the Primordial Qi. Take one out every three days and dissolve it in water for her to drink."
"Okay, okay, thank you Mr. Chen." Shandao hurriedly took the medicine. When he looked at his wife, he saw that her complexion was already somewhat rosy, not as pale and weak as before.
"Mikiko, how are you feeling?" Shandao stepped forward and asked with concern.
"I... I'm fine, I feel very good now." Mikiko slowly stood up: "I have much more strength in my body than just a moment ago... I really want to thank this gentleman properly."
"Good, good... You rest well first, Mikiko, you will be fine. I'll go have a good talk with Mr. Chen first." Seeing his wife's state, Shandao knew she was fine now, so his heart was largely at ease.
He and Chen Yu walked out. After leaving the door, he knelt on the ground with a *thud* and kowtowed several times: "Mr. Chen, thank you for saving Mikiko. From now on, my Life is yours. Whatever you want to know, just say it directly, I will definitely tell you everything."
"I want to know your strongholds." Chen Yu said: "Don't worry, I guarantee you won't be in danger."
"We have many strongholds, and the locations are random. Many places have great uncertainty. I only have a chance to know where the stronghold is during the next pilgrimage." Shandao said.
