Treatment

Upon hearing Zhang Xuanchen's question, Xuanjing replied:

"Brother Chen, if I'm not mistaken, the Sea God they're talking about should be a Second Order Peak Green-Skinned Lazy Toad Demon."

"It consumed some kind of spirit medicine, which refined the transverse bone in its mouth beforehand, allowing it to speak human language before reaching the Third Stage."

After speaking, Xuanjing paused, then carefully sensed the surrounding hundreds of miles again. His voice echoed in Zhang Xuanchen's mind once more:

"As for the exact location of the Demon Seed, I was unable to sense it."

However, the Lazy Toad Demon was severely injured, and Devil Qi remained in its wounds.

It must have fought against a creature possessed by Demon Seed not long ago.

Zhang Xuanchen nodded subtly. "Mm."

"Go check on it after dinner, when it's late and quiet."

Regaining his composure, he turned to look at the old woman sitting under the tree and asked gently:

"Old folks, we've heard you talk about the Sea God many times along the way. Have you ever actually seen this Sea God in person?"

The old lady smiled and shook her head, saying:

"How could ordinary people like us possibly meet the Sea God?"

During our monthly sacrificial rites, we place fresh sea fish on a stone platform in the center of Coral Town.

By the next morning, the fish would have disappeared.

Everyone will then know that it was the Sea God who accepted the offerings.

"As for what the Sea God actually looks like, we don't know."

But that's not important. What's important is that the Sea God will protect us.

"That's true."

Zhang Xuanchen nodded and didn't ask any further questions.

He raised his hand and took out a small grill from his Myriad Spirit Ring, along with a large amount of pre-prepared Demon Beast meat.

He knew all too well how astonishing the Great Sage's appetite was.

If we only wait for the few seafood dishes that Er Niu's family makes, it won't even be enough to Great Sage Dasheng's hunger.

Zhang Xuanchen took out the seasonings, sent some to Er Niu in the kitchen, and then skillfully put the Demon Beast meat on the fire to roast.

Sizzle sizzle...

As the oil fell into the fire, it made a soft crackling sound, and a rich aroma quickly filled the air.

Luo Lingshuang and Little Peach sat next to Zhang Xuanchen, helping to skewer the meat for grilling.

I occasionally chat with the old lady for a few minutes.

About fifteen minutes later, Xiao Ya finished tidying up the house and went to the garden.

He picked up a wooden stool, sat quietly next to the old lady, and began to weave straw sandals as she did, occasionally stealing glances at Zhang Xuanchen and the others.

Luo Lingshuang took out some honey from her Storage Ring and handed it to Xiao Ya, saying:

"Here, have some, it's very sweet and delicious!"

Xiao Ya didn't reach out to take it, but instead tugged at the old lady's sleeve and whispered:

"Grandmother."

The old woman laughed and said, "Immortal Master gave it to you, you should accept it."

Hearing this, Xiao Ya accepted the honey and thanked her.

"Thank you, Immortal Master."

"You're welcome."

Luo Lingshuang responded with a smile.

Although Zhang Xuanchen had previously said that there was no need to address him as "Immortal Master," that was simply impossible.

The courtyard was filled with the sounds of casual conversation.

Outside the courtyard, the setting sun gradually sank below the horizon.

The last golden-red light spread across the sea, rising and falling with the waves, like a piece of shattered gold leaf.

In the distance, ships lowered their sails, and fishermen returned to town one after another, carrying fishing nets and baskets full of seafood. They greeted each other in the alleyways, and the whole Coral Town was peaceful.

As dusk fell, the sea breeze swept through the courtyard wall, carrying a slightly salty mist and the coolness of the night.

The evergreen tree's branches swayed gently, casting its shadow on the tidy courtyard.

Busy as Er Niu, Erniu placed the prepared food on the wooden table in the yard.

The aroma of braised seafood mingled with the freshness of steamed Sea Crab and Octopus, filling the entire courtyard.

Zhang Xuanchen did not help throughout the entire process.

He knew that he wouldn't feel at ease if he didn't let Er Niu do something.

After Er Niu brought the last of the brown rice to the table, he excitedly called out:

"Come on, come on, let's eat! Let's eat!"

As the sound rang out, Zhang Xuanchen placed a large amount of roasted Demon Beast meat on the table.

They simply piled up the rather large wooden seating area.

Er Niu and Xiao Ya were dumbfounded.

Er Niu asked in shock, "Lord Chen, can you really finish all that meat you grilled?"

Zhang Xuanchen chuckled and replied, "Of course."

"That Xuan Sheng guy can eat a lot, no need to worry about waste."

"Here, this plate is for you. It contains some low-level Demon Beast meat. Eating it will be good for your health."

Don't think about refusing! You treated us to seafood, so I'll treat you to barbecue. It's called reciprocity.

Er Niu took a deep breath of the aroma of the roasted meat in front of him and said:

"Alright, alright, I won't stand on ceremony with Lord Chen."

Little Peach Tao walked to a corner of the courtyard, looked at the Great Sage who was lying on the ground fast asleep, twisted his ear, and said:

"Get up and eat!"

Upon hearing this, the Great Sage groggily opened his eyes, twitched his nose, and immediately sat up.

"Is dinner served?"

Here they come!

Before he finished speaking, he sprang to his feet with a swift movement, sat down at the stone table, picked up a piece of roasted meat, and took a bite.

Click.

The juice burst in my mouth.

"It smells so good! It smells so good!"

"Chatter, chatter, chatter."

Little Peach looked at his expression and smiled helplessly:

"Can't you tone it down a bit? This isn't home. Aren't you ashamed?"

Upon hearing this, the Great Sage muttered, "What's wrong with that?"

Er Niu, we men should eat heartily.

It tastes better this way.

As he spoke, the Great Sage picked up a Sea Crab, peeled off its shell in a few quick movements, and swallowed it in a few bites.

Er Niu, Xiao Ya, and the old lady were initially a bit reserved, but they gradually relaxed after seeing Zhang Xuanchen and the others chatting and laughing so easily.

They chatted idly.

During the meal, Luo Lingshuang looked at the old lady's pale and lifeless eyes and suddenly asked softly:

"Grandpa, is your blindness congenital, or caused by overwork?"

The old lady put down her chopsticks, raised her hand to touch the corner of her eye, and replied:

"He went blind later."

"My eyesight was fine when I was young, but it gradually deteriorated due to years of needlework."

Later, the family faced hardship, and he had to mend fishing nets and weave straw sandals day and night, until he gradually lost his sight.

"I'm used to it now. Even if I can't see, I can still do simple things like weaving straw sandals."

After listening, Luo Lingshuang said gently:

"If it was formed later in life, I might be able to try and take a look."

She cultivates Water Attribute Cultivation Method, and her spiritual power is like water, possessing both nourishing and moisturizing effects.

Although his healing abilities are not as good as those of cultivators specializing in wood attributes, he is still quite confident in treating some common ailments and soothing damaged meridians.

"Really?"

Upon hearing Luo Lingshuang's words, Er Niu abruptly put down his chopsticks and stood up abruptly.

Approaching Luo Lingshuang, he knelt down with a thud and kowtowed repeatedly:

"Please, Lord Ling, heal my grandmother's eyes!"

Er Niu is willing to be your slave!

Luo Lingshuang quickly raised her hand and released a gentle stream of spiritual energy to lift Er Niu up, saying:

"There's no need for that. The fact that we've met here proves that we're destined to be together."

As he spoke, he turned to the old lady, his tone gentle:

"Grandpa, don't be nervous, just relax."

Let me examine your eyes first. If they are treatable, I will do my best.

The old lady's hands trembled slightly.

She wanted to see it, she desperately wanted to see it.

I want to see what Er Niu will look like when he grows up, I want to see how much taller Xiao Ya has grown, I also want to see these kind-hearted Immortal Master in front of me, and I want to do more for this family in the future, and find Er Niu a wife...

He nodded repeatedly, his voice choked with emotion.

"Alright, alright... Thank you for your trouble, Lord Ling."

Xiao Ya also put down her chopsticks, sat quietly next to her grandmother, and held her hand tightly.

Luo Lingshuang nodded.

Then he raised his right hand, and a wisp of clear, aquamarine light emanated from his fingertips.

The light was not dazzling, but it carried a gentle and pure aura.

Then, using his Divine Sense, he carefully examined the old woman's eye meridians and discovered that the old woman's long-term strain and aging had caused her meridians to become blocked, and the Spirit Aperture in her eyes to gradually wither, which led to her complete loss of sight.

I breathed a sigh of relief.

"The problem isn't too serious; it's treatable."

As she spoke, she lightly tapped her fingertip, and the aquamarine spiritual energy slowly seeped into the old woman's pupils.

The Spiritual Qi flows like a gentle stream, slowly circulating along the subtle meridians.

The old lady's eyelids trembled slightly, and her eyes, which had been dry for many years, suddenly felt a surge of soreness.

"Relax, close your eyes, don't be afraid," Luo Lingshuang soothed gently.

"Okay, I'm not afraid," the old woman replied in a trembling voice.

Luo Lingshuang controlled her spiritual power, gradually clearing the blocked meridians, and then sent the water elemental power into the depleted Spirit Aperture in her eyes.

Before long, wisps of murky, old energy seeped from the old lady's eyes, only to be dispelled by Luo Lingshuang's spiritual power.

His originally dull and lifeless eyes gradually regained a faint luster.

A moment later, Luo Lingshuang withdrew her hand.

"Grandpa, try opening your eyes slowly."

The old woman slowly opened her eyes.

The first thing that catches the eye is a blurry scene of light and shadow.

She paused, then raised her hand to rub her eyes.

The vision gradually became clear.

The dishes on the table, the evergreen tree in the yard, Xiao Ya sitting beside her... all the scenes gradually revealed their outlines.

The old woman stared at the little girl in front of her, her lips trembling, and tears welled up in her eyes instantly.

"Er Niu, Xiao Ya..."

Grandma saw it.

Grandma can see you now...

Looking at everything before her, the old woman said in a trembling voice, tears streaming down her face.
