Chapter 1008 Can't Take It The wizard promised that Maria was alright; it was the ghost that was forced out. Her mother was crying, and her husband walked around restlessly. Their logical minds were asking them to open the lid to check on Maria. But they hesitated and did not do it. Finally, 20 minutes were up. The wizard burned the talismans and yelled, “Open!” Maria's husband hurriedly opened the lid, and everyone gasped at the same time! The villagers all backed off, and the timid ones started to vomit and cry. Maria's husband was dumbstruck, and her mother fell to the ground! The moment the lid was lifted, Maria's skin bloated like a balloon, and it shrank the moment. it touched the air. The scene was exactly like steaming the food, but the difference was that there was a human inside the barrel. “Oh my god!” Someone yelled, and the villagers went away.

Some of them reported it to the police, and some called for an ambulance. After panicking, Maria's husband came back to his senses, and he carried her out, but it was too late. “M... Marial” “My daughter, my daughter!” Both of them screamed in the yard. The wizards anxiously ran away without even asking for payment. The yard became empty in a few minutes, and some brave villagers were still looking away. And some were making phone calls. The police officers and ambulance came soon after. Maria was far beyond saving; she was steam-steamed to death. The police officers pursued the wizards and captured them before nightfall.

Maria’s mother and husband were still in a daze in the yard. Her body lay there with a white cloth covering her, and the doctor declared her death. The two of them did not even have the courage to open the curtains to see her once more! How could she be dead? She was perfectly normal. How could she be? Maria's mother could not accept the truth! Her husband dashed toward the wizards when the police officers brought them back. He grabbed one of their collars and asked, “Didn’t you say it would work?” He yelled, “Didn’t you say you can steam the ghost out? Didn't you cure many with it? How, why, You guys lied!” He punched the wizard. The wizards were silent; they were both suspects now.

After investigation, it was found out that the wizards did not even graduate from primary school. They went to work early in their lives. They were not educated, so they could not work well; they had to go back to their hometowns. The two of them met during work, and they decided to cheat people as wizards. “We didn’t know how to treat people.” The wizard said, “If we managed to cure the patient, we would ask for more money. If we don’t, we'll find excuses for it. But they never accidentally killed someone.

Sometimes they mixed the ash of the talisman with the water, and if the patient recovered, they would say that they were powerful. If the patient did not recover, they would blame the patient for being too sinful.

There was a time they treated a child, and they also said that he was possessed. They used some tools to knock the ghost out of the child. The child was almost beaten to death, but afterward he never relapsed again. The child's family appreciated them a lot.

But the police investigated and realized that the child did relapse, but he would hide himself to avoid beatings. Most of them were lucky. After all, the patients” families would only look for the practitioner or wizard when they were out of methods. But Maria was pitiful; she was the first patient to die under the wizards.

“What were the two of you thinking? Steaming person? The policemen could not understand it. And the wizards answered, “Because we saw a sauna program on the television...” Back in the day, saunas were not normalized, and the villagers barely knew about it. The wizards saw the benefits of saunas through the television ads. It sounded like it could cure everything. They were excited about it, and they thought that steaming people in a barrel worked the same way. They were illiterate, so they did not know the exact details of how the sauna worked. They came up with this method just to cheat people out of money. They really thought that it would work on Maria, yet they killed her. This was a tragedy born of stupidity and ignorance.
