Chapter 290: Immortals
An hour later, Janine was already sitting in her makeshift rented room, sitting by the window looking out into the street. The crowd was bustling, but her mind was not on it, but on the news she had heard in the lobby before.
It turns out that everyone is talking about the magical things that have happened in Ji'a Town recently, and it should be said that it appeared in the forest outside Ji'a Town.
This incident can be traced back to three months ago, when a young man named Ah Quan in the town suddenly became seriously ill because of his elderly and sick mother. All kinds of methods have been thought of, and in such a remote area, people do not have very avant-garde modern knowledge, such as going to a big hospital in a larger city. Of course, there is also Ah Quan's family who does not have much money and can provide for his mother to see a doctor, but this Ah Quan is a famous filial son in the town.
The old mother was suddenly seriously ill and was about to die, and he was so anxious that he didn't sleep for a few days, and the bubbles at the corners of his mouth came out several times. At this time, after being reminded by his neighbors, he thought that in the forest outside Ji'a Town, there was a precious medicinal material that could save people's lives, a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum.
Anyone who lives in the town of Jia knows how dangerous it is in that forest, and even the most powerful warriors usually dare not go too deep. And the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum that Ah Quan was looking for was growing in the deepest part of the forest, and in such a place, the people in the town shook their heads when they heard it, and even the neighbor who reminded Ah Quan before was also sorry for his mouth.
However, even if everyone persuaded him, Ah Quan still went to the forest without his mother, and he usually followed the large army into the forest to hunt. But they're all moving on the periphery, and this time they're going to go into the depths. He had neither a map nor any experience, and the so-called thrills of all kinds.
Three days passed. Ah Quan did not come back, and the people in the town felt that he had been eaten by the monsters in the mountains, and shook their heads with a sigh while rushing to admire his filial piety. And Ah Quan's mother never knew about this, and Ah Quan asked a neighbor to help take care of her before leaving.
Just when his neighbor was worrying about what happened to Ah Quan's mother in the future, Ah Quan came back, five days later. He returned, unscathed, and brought with him the elixir that saved his mother.
Then. This incident caused an incomparable sensation in the town, Ah Quan was very calm about it, and as soon as he returned home, he gave his mother the magic medicine he brought back, and it was really surprising and amazing that something magical happened. People who are already on the verge of death. That's how he was saved.
Because Ah Quan came back unexpectedly, everyone followed him to his house to watch, wanting to see if the magic medicine he brought back could really cure his mother's serious illness. They all know that the old man's illness is terminally ill, and he has not lived for a few days, especially in recent years.
However, when they saw the ruddy-faced woman coming out of Ah Quan's house, they all grew their mouths in surprise and looked at the mother and son in front of them in disbelief. Wrong. They look like mother and son, they are like sisters and brothers.
Ah Quan and his mother have been living a hard life. There is no money in the family, and every man supports the family, and his mother has always brought him up with hard work. After all these years of hard work, no matter how beautiful a woman is, she will be pressed by life to grow old and ugly.
Ah Quan's mother, who was originally only in her forties, looked as old as a fifty or sixty-year-old woman, and she had been in poor health all these years, and there was a kind of twilight on her body, which made people feel lifeless.
Now, however, in less than an hour, she has become a beautiful young woman in her thirties. To say that everyone may think that this is not Ah Quan's mother, but someone who suddenly appeared out of nowhere, but the older generation of people who have always been in contact with Ah Quan's family in the past also have a nostalgic and sighing expression when they see his mother's appearance. Because, they all recognized it, that was what Ah Quan's mother looked like when she was young, you must know that it caused them to pursue it for a while at that time.
Seeing everyone's surprised looks, Ah Quan smiled, and he also answered everyone's doubts and questions, after he entered the forest, he met the immortals!
Immortal?! Wow! Everyone was amazed, some incredulous, some envious and jealous, and all kinds of emotions poured into their hearts for a while.
The people in the mountain town all believe that the mountain gods only say, but the people who have really seen the immortals have never appeared, and for those who pretend to have seen the immortals, as long as they are punctured, the consequences are very strict. It can be seen that the people in the town worship the mountain god, and they can't tolerate a trace of the mountain god in their hearts being insulted.
However, now in the face of Ah Quan, they are not suspicious, you must know that they have just seen the effect of the magic medicine he brought back. There is a living example in front of them, and they don't think it's true.
Then, in the following days, Ah Quan's house was often haunted, and everyone came to visit the door, all wanting to really find out if his mother could maintain this state all the time, and she wouldn't suddenly fall down in two days, right? However, half a month has passed, and Ah Quan's mother not only did not get old and ugly, but also did not fall down again, but became more radiant, with a ruddy complexion and spirit.
The spirit of the person is different, and the temperament of the whole person is different, almost reaching the style of her peak back then, which makes everyone believe in Ah Quan's immortal theory even more. So, someone came out of Annai and found Ah Quan, wanting him to take him to the forest to find the fairy.
Although Ah Quan was embarrassed, in the end he couldn't bear the other party's pleading, so he took the other party away, and three days later they both returned, the man's face was red, and his eyes were full of excitement. Obviously, the man was taken by Ah Quan and also saw the immortals, but as for what happened, none of them said anything, only that they had seen the immortals.
This aroused everyone's curiosity even more, so more people wanted to follow Ah Quan into the forest to meet the fairy. You must know that even simple people still have desires and wants, and now there is such an opportunity to meet all their wishes in front of them, and none of them want to give up, and everyone is excited.
Seeing that more and more people signed up to go, Ah Quan said that there were too many people to go at one time, and the gods would be unhappy, so they could only bring ten people over at a time.
Those people didn't complain when they heard it, the gods, they don't like too many people, so they don't dare to go more, so after some fierce competition, ten people were finally determined, all of whom were young and strong men.
This time Ah Quan set off again with these ten people, and walked into the forest outside the town, and after five days, they returned, but this time it was ten people, and they were one less. (To be continued......)
