Enge hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said:
"Okay, let's try it."
Luo Yan smiled back and took Piao Piao to sit on the chair in the middle of the living room.
"Come on, let's take your pulse first."
It still starts with inspection.
Although Luo Yan knew Engel's situation very well, he still wanted to check it out.
After all, the condition may change over time.
However, the inspection results this time were still consistent with the day before yesterday, and there was no change.
Without rushing to start treatment, Luo Yan put his hand on Enge's wrist and asked:
"There seem to be many more statues in the village at night... Enge, do you know what they are?"
When Piaopiao heard this question, she quietly pricked up her ears and planned to listen carefully.
The statues outside are really scary.
Enge scratched his head and showed a gentle smile.
"Well, there's nothing surprising about this. This is the dark source of our village's belief. It's His statue."
He looked out the window. Under the pitch-black night, he always felt like there was something lurking outside, looking into the house with his scarlet eyes, which made people feel uneasy.
"As for why they are not put up during the day, of course it is because placing statues on the street during the day takes up too much space and can easily cause traffic jams."
Creatures in most areas of the dark world have beliefs, and they believe in the most majestic existence in the world: the source of darkness.
It is normal for the weak to believe in the strong and seek refuge.
The Dark Sources also seem to be very happy to be believed in.
Luo Yan nodded slightly when he heard this.
In fact, this situation also exists in Huihun Street. Some dark creatures will believe in a certain dark source.
However, the Holy Art Pharmacy does not have such rules, and the teacher does not respect those majestic beings.
So, are the statues outside related to a dark source?
As I was thinking about it, the lights in the room suddenly flickered.
Luo Yan raised his head and looked at Enge carefully.
The opponent was a tall humanoid creature with a rough appearance, but his eyes were unusually gentle.
Most of the villagers in Canshou Village are doctors. Doctors have such gentle eyes...it's a bit weird.
At least, Luo Yan himself didn't have such eyes.
He felt that doctors should be decisive and cruel, otherwise how could they convince patients?
If the beating is not severe, the patient will not cooperate. Luo Yan knows this well.
Of course, if there were shackles, there would be no need to torture.
Luo Yan continued to ask: "I see that the left hand of the statue is mutilated. Many people in the village also have left hands... There is something wrong with it. Is it because of your faith that you all chose to self-mutilate?"
Enge was stunned.
His expression froze, as if he was instantly petrified and turned into a sculpture, his whole body motionless.
Luo Yan stared at each other closely.
He sensed something was wrong, and while Enge was stunned, his pulse actually stopped!
"Mr. Enge? Why did your pulse... stop?"
Luo Yan asked in a low voice, while his whole body tensed up and prepared for battle.
It feels very wrong, very wrong!
Enge came back to his senses and smiled bitterly.
"Why is there no pulse in my body... It's probably because, Dr. Luo, the hand you use to feel the pulse is a prosthetic hand."
Piaopiao: "..."
Master, why don't you stop doing technical work like solving puzzles? I don't think you are... suitable for it.
We'd better just be in peace and pretend to be deceitful, right? Just practice medicine and save people.
Luo Yan was a little embarrassed when he heard Enge's explanation.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I forgot, I forgot, it's okay, it's okay, just keep talking."
Enge smiled and said: "Actually, I have always been very strange. I have learned the art of taking pulse, but there is no pulse... How on earth did the diagnosis result be obtained?"
Luo Yan pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses and rambled casually: "Oh, it depends on talent. Some people, like me, are extremely talented and were born to do this, so they don't care whether they have a pulse or not."
Engel: “…”
(ﾟOﾟ)
Really...really?
Why do I always feel like you are lying to me?
Luo Yan said: "Where have we talked? Yes, why are so many people in your village disabled in their left hands? Moreover, it seems that it is difficult to recover."
Engel smiled bitterly upon hearing this.
"Maybe it's just bad luck."
Luo Yan was not satisfied with this answer. Although he was not smart, he was not that stupid.
But Enge obviously didn't want to mention this matter, and it was hard for Luo Yan to ask further questions.
So he thought for a moment and said slowly:
"Actually, Mr. Engel, I am certain that I can restore your hand... Do you want to give it a try?"
The lights suddenly flickered again, and strong winds blew outside the house, causing the windows to rattle.
A strange feeling arose in Luo Yan's heart, as if he was being watched by something outside the window. The strong sense of uneasiness made the hair on his body stand on end.
What I just said... seems to have touched some kind of taboo.
Enge froze in place for a long time, then slowly moved his eyes to look at his left hand.
He remained motionless in this position.
Piaopiao was already scared, so she secretly tugged on Luo Yan's sleeves and signaled him to leave quickly with her eyes.
Luo Yan ignored it, and even hit Piaopiao's little head excessively. Although the force was not light or severe, it almost made Piaopiao cry in grievance.
Master, stop trying to solve puzzles! Your IQ is really not suitable for this! Woohoo... we will all be in danger!
Time passed minute by minute, and just when Luo Yan almost thought that Engel would never move again, the latter slowly raised his head.
His eyes were bloodshot for some reason.
"Is it really...can it be cured?"
Engel's voice was very deep, with some indescribable emotion in it.
Such a simple sentence almost made Luo Yan and Piao Piao furious.
Because this is not Engel’s voice! It is obviously the voice of another person!
Luo Yan suppressed the turbulent emotions in his heart and tried to act calm and calm.
"Of course, I am certain."
Piaopiao whispered in her heart: Master, stop pretending, your legs are teased even better than mine!
She didn't know why she was so scared, but Engel at this time and Canshou Village at this time... were so terrifying and incomprehensible.
Piao Piao felt that Luo Yan was talking to another soul through Engel's body, and that soul... would bring extremely terrible things.
Enge stiffly took off his prosthetic hand and looked at Luo Yan.
His voice returned to its original state.
"Then I'll trouble Dr. Luo."
Luo Yan nodded, placed one hand on Enge's wound, and closed his eyes at the same time.
What makes the villagers of Canshou Village permanently disabled is actually a curse attached to the wounds, and the curse... Luo Yan has a way to break it.
However, he would not use that method easily. After all, the side effects of using it would be too great. Even now, when I think about it, I still find it shocking.
Sage time, I believe many people have experienced that feeling, it is a state... where you will make a decision that you will regret for life!
However, no matter how terrifying the sequelae were, Luo Yan had no choice but to use it at this time.
He had a hunch that the truth might be hidden in this curse.
