Chapter VII: Group Therapy
"Remember to apply your medication on time. Lina half-squatted, reached out and pressed the forehead of an old woman, the pain on the old woman's face had dissipated, replaced by a relaxed expression that had not been shown for a long time, and took Lina's other hand unwilling to let her go. Lina gently stroked the old woman's hair and comforted her like a child: "Don't worry, it's okay, when you go home, you will do what I said, let the children change your dressing, and you will be cured in a few days, don't worry, it won't be uncomfortable anymore." You see, there are other people waiting for me to be treated, and you can't bear to see the other neighbors continue to be uncomfortable, right? β
The old woman let go of Lina's hand with a smile so that she could stand up smoothly, and the old man's family gathered around Lina with a grateful face, and the lack of words could not express their feelings, so they could only keep thanking her.
"Don't be verbose with me. Lina waved her hand impatiently and turned away, but when no one saw it, a gleam appeared on her fair face. Her treatment was very fast, and there were constantly people who had recovered to rely on their bodies to leave, and some patients who needed to recuperate were lifted off the long table again, and the patient's family members were frightened by the impatience and vicious expression on Lina's face, and they didn't dare to approach and talk, but the children who were supposed to be the most afraid of strangers seemed to sense something with a keen premonition, and gathered around Lina without fear at all, watching her curiously as her hands lit up for a while, and then taking out the medicine to treat the adults lying on the tableγ
"Get out of my way, you dead kids are annoying. After being followed quietly by the children for a while, Lina suddenly turned around and roared with a vicious expression: "Hide away from me, don't come near me, otherwise I will eat you, hurry up." β
The children exclaimed, and more than twenty children fled in all directions in an instant, but not long after Lina turned around, the children regrouped again, and secretly followed behind the silver-haired girl, watching her busy curiously, but following a little farther away. So, every time Lina finished her treatment, she would turn back to the children and roar fiercely, but the more she roared, the children did not seem to be afraid, and every time she turned back and roared, the children would gather together and let out a cheerful laugh, as if they had seen something interesting.
"A few of you, are you just here to see the excitement? Lina finally couldn't help it, and shouted to the three girls sitting next to her dissatisfiedly, and shouted to the black people in the auditorium: "And you, take care of your children, otherwise be careful that I will beat them." β
After an hour of contact, the townspeople have fully understood Lina's awkwardness, and they are no longer afraid of Lina's screams, but they just snicker and pull their children back, but if they are not careful, the energetic children will slip away again, squeezing around in the crowd, and they can't find it.
"Aren't you having a great time? Freya sat at the table next to her, holding her chin in her hands and watching the excitement, when she was the only one of the three girls who reacted to Lina's words, and said with a smile: "You see that you are afraid that they will be bored and run out to get frostbite, and you don't forget to take the time to play games with them when you are treating, isn't it very good, and I am very happy, where do you need our help." β
"It's noisy, it's so long-winded, I'm not so idle. Lina waved her fist at Freya angrily, snorted and turned her head, suddenly startled, and said in surprise: "What's the matter, why are your hands and arms so badly burned, and they are new injuries, I haven't heard where the town has caught fire recently, if you don't deal with this in time, you won't be able to save both arms." β
Although Freya teased before, but seeing Lina start to do business again, she still clapped her hands gently, attracting the idea of a group of children, and suddenly with a wave of her hands, several metal parts flew down from her hands, and before they landed, they combined into two weird-looking little puppets, which were jumped around on the ground by her manipulators, and let a group of children happily chase after the puppets and run around the edge of the auditorium, which can be regarded as saving Lina from the headache.
"Bang", Lina suddenly slapped the table hard, pointed at the person whose arm was burned and said angrily: "How do you say it again? Report the big soup can that is boiling on the fire to your wife? Your eyes are fine, even if you have a problem with your eyes, don't you feel pain when you report it? Why don't you let go immediately? Drink and drink, and if you drink too much wine in the future, you will go to bed honestly, don't make any noise, I will treat you, of course I will treat you, and wait for you to go and hold the soup can next time, no, next time you should jump into the jar by yourself?" I found that you people here are really amazing, you can live without life, you can't drink wine. β
With a "squeak", the door to the Great Hall was pushed open again, and Catherine and Pennis, wrapped in thick clothing, walked in through the door. Catherine dusted off the remnants of snow on her body and asked strangely, "What's the matter, how did you cure your illness and still have such a big fire, who provoked you again?"
"Hmph. Although Lina scolded in her mouth, her hands were not slow at all, this kind of scalding was still very easy to treat for the Legendary Rank Priest, and a few simple magic techniques quickly dealt with the injury, and then wrapped it with a clean bandage and medicine, then snorted coldly, and turned her head away from looking at the family's grateful gaze: "Hurry up, don't let me have another chance to see you." β
"Okay, I see. Catherine shrugged, separated the townsfolk in front of her, sat down beside Freya and said, "It's basically decided, and I'll go to the Bailong Dominion with that liaison in four days, so let's take a good rest these days, although it is likely that you don't need to hike into the Warcraft Forest, but in case of an accident, there will be no physical exhaustion." Lina, how are you doing over there, there are so many people here. β
"Almost. Lina wrapped a bandage on the calf of the little boy who was treated by the last party, slapped him on the ass a few times, and said angrily: "Next time, I will be disobedient, and then I will break my leg, hum, you will cry when the time comes." β
"Thank you, sister. The other little girl did not go with the other children to see the puppet, but pulled the corner of Lina's clothes beside her, raised her hand and said, "Thank you, sister, for letting my brother play with me again, this piece of candy will be eaten for you." β
Lina glanced at the sugar cube that had become dirty in the little girl's hand, took it and stuffed it directly into her mouth, took out her own snacks and stuffed them into the little girl's mouth, turned her head away from looking at the little girl's happy eyes, and said fiercely: "Go, play with your brother, don't bother me." β
"Poof", Catherine couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh when she saw the character of the character Lina chose this time, and shook her head helplessly and said to Freya beside her: "She's been like this all the time today?"
"Well, it's almost morning. Freya retracted the puppet in the disappointed eyes of the children around her, "I think Lina is cute like this." β
The treatment has basically ended, the bearded mayor smiled with a wrinkled face, and walked over to Lina and was about to say something of thanks, but Lina glared: "Let them stop arguing, stand quietly for me, go quickly." β
The mayor was puzzled, but he still did as Lina requested, and soon the townspeople quieted down, looking at Lina standing on the table with confusion and gratitude. The silver-haired priest girl didn't talk nonsense, stretched her body and raised her hands high, her fist-clenched hands began to condense a soft white light, and she lowered her head and whispered a solemn prayer in her mouth. At the end of the prayer, the girl's hands spread out at the same time, and the white light burst from her hands, slowly falling from the heads of the whole town, and colorful and small points of light flew all over the sky, making the auditorium seem to rain light.
"Oh my gosh. There was a short exclamation from the townspeople, who were immediately covered by the people next to them, who had basically lived in the town all their lives, and had never had the opportunity to see such a large-scale divine art, and were all shocked by the light and shadow effects of the divine art. But soon, the reason for their shock changed, as the light rain fell on their bodies, the townspeople suddenly felt comfortable feeling overflowed from every pore of their body, their whole body was warm, some small problems that plagued their bodies quickly disappeared under the light and rain bath, and they felt that their bodies were healthy like never before.
"It's noisy, it's all out of here. Lina yelled with wandering eyes, immediately jumped off the table, ran to Catherine's side, cleverly used Freya's size to block the view of the townspeople, and said with a cold snort: "These people are annoying, let's go back to the room quickly, I don't want to stay here for a minute." β
"Okay, okay. Catherine was also helpless about Lina's awkward personality this time, and smiled apologetically at the mayor who rushed over and said, "No way, Mayor Town, you can explain it to everyone for us, let's go back first." I've got in touch with the liaison of the Bailong clan, and we'll be on our way together in four days' time, staying in the town's tavern for the rest of the day, and if there's anything you can come to us. β
"I really don't know how to thank you. The bearded mayor was excited, took off the hat on his head and put it on for a while, and stammered: "There are no good things in the town that can be used as payment, but how can I be embarrassed to let you waste so much effort." β
"Mayor Mare, how much do you think you can hire a Golden Adventurer?" Freya smiled and shook her head, "So, don't ...... it"
"Accommodation fee. Catherine suddenly interrupted Freya's words, put her hands on the mayor's shoulders, and said solemnly, "I ask the town to settle the accommodation fee for these four days for us, understand?"
"Oh. The mayor was taken aback, and looked at Catherine as if she was about to rob, and could only nod subconsciously.
"Very well, then this is the deal. Catherine patted the mayor's arm with satisfaction: "Let's go, let's go back." (To be continued.) )
