Chapter 286: Curse
Chapter 286: Curse
Liu Yang had doubts about whether he was considered to have been born in the Ninth World or not because his birth was very strange. He will know only when he tries on the secret realm, until that day, it would be useless to think about this subject.
After many thoughts, Liu Yang put that aside and pushed the women into bed.
He had a year before the secret realm open, the things he could do were many, but in the end, Liu Yang decided to open a medical clinic that exchanged items for medical treatment.
According to the experiences reading Web Novel and playing RPG games in his previous life, Liu Yang knew that it was possible to make money and rare items by coincidence. This was a great way to get the items, but he had to be careful not to show too much and ultimately arouse the interest of influential groups.
Another way to get items would be to go to the Guild of Adventurers and get a mission, but this way your strength would be shown, this was something he did not want. So the solution was to create a medical clinic.
Having thought of a plan to pass the time, Liu Yang talked a little with the women about it, although they were displeased with the fact that the four could no longer do activities often, they still accepted. The women made a deal to alternate the nights they would sleep with Liu Yang, every night one would sleep with him.
The next day, Liu Yang changed appearance again, he looked like an ordinary young man of 25-28 years and went to the city center, there were a few vacant buildings to buy. The place that Liu Yang bought cost a few million gold coins, and was close to the main road.
Liu Yang spent three days to organize the site because it was very dirty and there was nothing inside, were spent a few thousand gold coins to renovate the building, buy furniture and many other things to improve the appearance of the place. Liu Yang made a plaque written "Clinic of the Skillful Doctor"
On opening day there was nothing extravagant, Liu Yang just opened the clinic normally as if it were any day. Many thought that Liu Yang was just a charlatan who was trying to gain fame and earn money from idiots.
In the Nine Worlds, it was rare for anyone to get sick since there were millions of kinds of herbs, pills, and elixirs that could heal someone. But there were rare cases that the disease was so unknown that it was almost impossible to cure by normal means, because of this, many began to seek other means of cure, and because of this, the profession of doctors arose.
But usually, a doctor was an old man because of the amount of time spent in the study of the nature of bodies, plants, and many other things. But many saw that the owner of the clinic was just a young man, how could he be a doctor? This made many skeptical of the clinic.
Liu Yang knew that this would be so in the beginning, but when the first patient to enter the clinic and get cured by it, that would all change. Liu Yang just sat in the chair behind the desk and looked out at the busy streets.
Some hours later
A group of people entered the clinic, each of them had a threatening and dark aura. Looking at them, Liu Yang thought they were just a bunch of idiots trying to make some kind of joke. Each of them was only at 200-300 level.
The group did not make any mess on the spot, they wanted to see the power of Liu Yang first, after some time looking, the group found the room that Liu Yang was, when they looked at him, shock appeared on their faces.
Even with the ability to see, the strongest person could not see the information of Liu Yang, it just showed that he was much stronger than each of them. Everyone's face grew serious when they realized that fact.
The person who appeared to be the leader sat in the chair in front of Liu Yang, he had a solemn face as he looked at Liu Yang.
"Hello, what can my clinic do for you?" Liu Yang's voice contained a casual tone
"Nice to meet you, my name is Li Yi, I am here to ask for help from you" Li Yi had no longer exhaled the dangerous aura, he seemed ordinary person now.
"Nice to meet you, my name is Yin Lei. What kind of help does the esteemed patient need?" Although he knew what Li Yi needed, Liu Yang still asked.
"I am suffering horrible pains at night, no matter what kind of elixir I use, the pain does not go away. I am so over ten years ago "Li Yi was trying his luck, he was once the hundreds of doctors and people who had healing skills, but in the end, no one was able to help him. He went to Liu Yang's clinic on a whim as he did not think he could help him.
"Describe to me the things that happened before you started to feel these pains." Liu Yang had to do the procedure to not look too suspicious.
Li Yi began to narrate the events of dozens of years ago.
He is part of a group of mercenaries called the Black Moon Group, they are quite famous in the Ninth World. The group did escort and search missions, murder missions were forbidden by the leaders, as they did not want to compete with the assassin guilds that existed in the Nine Worlds.
One of the missions that Li Yi participated in was a temple called Temple of the Dark Night, the mission was to escort a group of explorers through the temple while they searched for treasures. But one thing happened after they reached the final hall, an array was activated and everyone inside the area of effect began to feel these pains a few days later.
Every night, people began to feel as if their bones were being crushed, and the flesh being torn. The pain was agonizing.
Li Yi endured this pain for ten years, and in that time he was in hundreds of experts in the art of healing, but in the end, it was all in vain. No one could find a way to help him.
"I see ... Give me your wrist"
Li Yi did not find it strange Liu Yang make this request since he knew the medical procedure. Liu Yang grabbed Li Yi's wrist and injected some energy.
This technique was called Body Reading, by injecting energy into someone's body, this allowed the person to look at each part within the body.
"Interesting ... Patient Li Yi, you're not sick or anything. I believe some doctors have already said that"
"Yes, some doctor I visited told me that I have no disease, but there is something extremely powerful in my body that causes me to feel these pains"
"That's true, you're not sick, but there's some kind of curse in your body, the only way to remove it is by going back to the location where you were activated the array. There must have something that can remove the curse "
"Is there another method to remove this curse?"
"Impossible, the curse you have suffered is very old, not something a person like me can remove, I can lessen the effects a little, but remember, this method works only once. And it only lasts two months, after that, you think about what you want to do "
Liu Yang sent energy to Li Yi's body again, he did not feel changes in his body, because the pain has not yet arisen.
"Alright, I appreciate the help. How much was the consultation? "Li Yi did not mind paying for something he did not know whether it would work or not.
"Any kind of medicinal ingredients like herbs or materials"
Li Yi gave Liu Yang a blue fruit that looked like a melon, this fruit was called Fruit of the Lake because the coloration looked like a bluish lake.
Liu Yang thanked and Li Yi said goodbye, he did not know if what Liu Yang did would have any effects, because he would only know when the night came. Liu Yang knew that tomorrow would be the day that more people would come to his clinic.
...
During the night, Li Yi felt the agonizing pains have become weaker, he was shocked at this, for the first time in ten years, the pain subsided. Li Yi understood that the words of Liu Yang were true, picking up a communication device, Li Yi sent several messages.
The next day, Liu Yang's clinic was with many people around it, they were the companions of Li Yi who were also suffering the curse.
