Chapter 676 - Do You Have a Way to Treat My Mother?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the end, one of the reasons why Feng Tong Village was so backward was because it was in such a remote geographical location. In addition, the village was too poor.

There wasn’t even a decent school, and there were no educated people in the village.

The children here needed to be educated and change their old-fashioned way of thinking.

Chi Jiao’s words were like a heavy blow to the hearts of the villagers present.

Hospital. School.

This was indeed a huge temptation.

The witch doctor had admitted that if their relatives had gone to the hospital for treatment when they were sick, they might not have died.

They only believed in the Evil Deity because they were afraid of illness and death!

If the Evil Deity couldn’t protect them from illnesses and disasters, why would they still worship him?!

“We can’t believe you just based on your words,” the village chief suddenly said, staring straight at her.

The other villagers also looked at Chi Jiao.

Yes.

They couldn’t believe her just because she said so.

After all, they had believed in the Evil Deity for so long. How could they so easily overthrow their own beliefs?

Chi Jiao looked at the village chief with a mild expression, her pitch-black eyes flickering with an unfathomable light.

“If you can prove to us that you can treat illnesses and save people without using the power of the Deity Stone, we will believe you.” The village chief felt a little uncomfortable from her stare and turned to look elsewhere.

“Village chief, if I cure your mother, you must cooperate with us then,” Chi Jiao said slowly.

It would be better if she could stay in this village for a couple more days and get more information about that stone from them.

The village chief was stunned. “How do you know that my mother is unwell? Did Ah Ping tell you?”

Ah Ping quickly waved his hands. “Village Chief, I didn’t tell her.”

Chi Jiao looked at the village chief indifferently. “It’s not important how I know. Anyway, it wasn’t the Evil Deity who told me. What’s important is, do you want your mother to recover?”

She knew from the village chief’s memories that his mother had lung disease.

Although it was a little serious, it was not hopeless.

However, if it were to drag on for a few more months, even the most powerful deity would not be able to save her.

“Do you have a way to cure my mother?” The village chief’s eyes lit up.

“I can cure your mother using a scientific method,” Chi Jiao said firmly.

The villagers started discussing again.

“Are you serious? The village chief’s mother is already bedridden and can’t move. How can she be cured?”

“If she can really cure the village chief’s mother, I want her to take a look at my son. His health hasn’t been good, either.”

“Me too. I want her to take a look at my father.”

“…”

The village chief listened to their noisy discussions. He cleared his throat and said, “Please come to my house first and take a look at my mother.”

Chi Jiao nodded.

She turned to glance at Beitang Lie before speaking to Pei Yao, “Sister Pei Yao, please stay here and take care of Beitang Lie. I’ll be back soon.”

With that, Chi Jiao turned and left with the village chief.

Pei Yao wanted to go with her, but Beitang Lie couldn’t be left alone, so she had to stay.

The village chief’s mother, Wu Li, had lung disease.. She was bedridden because she was unable to eat normally due to her illness, causing her body to be too weak to move.
