Chapter 274 I'm Going to Collect Herbs
Mancao looked distrustful and asked, "Can you do it?"
"You'll know whether it works or not in a moment. Don't waste time now." An Yan gestured for her to move aside quickly.
Although Mancao was reluctant, she still moved aside and looked at Li Rongsen again. She found that he looked even more handsome when she was closer. She blushed and her heart beat faster, but she immediately regained her composure.
I wondered how I could have such wild thoughts just for a man when my old lady was still here, her life or death uncertain.
An Yan was giving the old lady an injection at her heart chakra, and then she helped her up and patted her back, when she spat out something, which was a date.
At this time, the old lady began to breathe again and slowly opened her eyes. She said, "Hey, Cao'er."
An Yan also retracted the golden needle in time, which made the old lady take a deep breath, and then she began to feel better again.
"Grandma, you finally woke up. You scared me to death." Mancao had to be grateful to Anyan and admire her. She knew that her grandma really couldn't breathe just now.
An Yan put away the golden needle and walked aside.
"I don't know what happened. I was eating dates, and something stuck in my throat." The old lady said to her, looking at An Yan and Li Rongsen and asking, "Who are these two?"
"They are my friends." Mancao lied to her.
"This man looks familiar. I seem to have seen him in a painting. Is this the painting you showed me?" the old lady asked Mancao.
Mancao said, "Oh, it's nothing, grandma, you should rest first." Then she told several people to take good care of her.
The old lady then asked, "Where's Man Teng? Why hasn't he come?"
"My brother is out on business and will come to see you soon." Mancao said, and gestured to An Yan and Li Rongsen to leave with her, and went to Manteng.
Man Teng was still hiding on the bed.
An Yan said to Man Cao, "Your brother has a very strange disease."
"Yes, I have been using drugs to slow down the aging of his body. In fact, he is already old. As long as the drugs are stopped, he will become an old man." Mancao sighed lightly.
"I'll wake him up first." An Yan said as she gave him a few injections.
After a cup of tea, Man Teng gradually regained consciousness. When he saw Anyan, he immediately became alert. Mancao, who was standing by, came over and said, "Brother, this woman just saved our grandmother's life. She said she can also help you heal your illness."
"Really?" Man Teng looked a little unconvinced.
"By the way, why did you two kidnap us? It's really incomprehensible." An Yan asked them.
Man Teng frowned at first, and then said: "I am almost dying. I need to find someone who can help take care of this place. The hard work of our ancestors cannot be wasted."
Mancao added: "I want to find a capable husband, and I think he is very suitable."
"Of course it's not appropriate." Li Rongsen quickly refuted her.
Man Teng looked at Anyan and said, "I think you can be a good leader here. Why don't you just stop working in West City and come here? This is a pure paradise, and it has nothing to do with the outside world."
"I don't agree." An Yan said.
"You can think about it." Man Teng said again.
"You can't force others to do anything. Besides, how can people from outside get used to living here? It's naturally impossible." An Yan told him again.
"But we just like you." Man Teng insisted.
Mancao also looked at Li Rongsen and said, "I will treat you well."
"That's absolutely not possible!" Li Rongsen quickly refused. He didn't need any woman except An Yan. Besides, he had companies and industries that had not been developed. Moreover, his goal was to be the richest man, not to be some crappy leader here.
"I don't have much time left." Man Teng looked very sad.
An Yan smiled and said, "Don't say that. Your illness is not that difficult to treat. It just requires a herbal remedy."
"Is it Ganoderma lucidum?" asked Mancao.
"It's him. I came into the forest this time just to get him. You should know where he is?" An Yan asked.
"I know, but no one can pick it. If someone can pick it, my brother will naturally be saved." Mancao frowned and sighed. She tried very hard but couldn't think of a way to get him.
"That's great. You take us there, and I'll use the flowers to treat your brother's illness after I pick them. How about that?" An Yan asked her.
Man Teng glanced towards Man Cao and said, "To get there, you have to cross a big river. There's a monster on the other side. He won't allow anyone to get close to the island, let alone pick anything. He's killed countless warriors who have tried to reach the island."
"Don't be afraid of this. I've heard such legends." An Yan didn't think it was a big deal.
"This is not a legend, but a fact." Mancao reminded her in a very serious tone that she had saved her grandmother after all, so she had some kindness towards her and did not want her to die.
"Don't worry, I will come back safely." An Yan said, then looked towards Li Rongsen and asked him, "What about you, are you afraid?"
"Of course I'm not afraid, as long as I'm with you."
"I would like you to stay, but I'm afraid someone will do something excessive." An Yan said as she looked at Mancao.
Mancao was indeed embarrassed. She said, "Of course not. As long as you can save my brother, we don't need to find a new leader."
Man Teng didn't want to be bothered either, so she said to Anyan, "Tell us what you need, and we'll prepare it for you."
"Prepare a boat." An Yan told them.
The two brothers immediately ordered to build a boat.
Because there are many people here and shipbuilding is their strong point, it didn't take long to build a boat that can accommodate ten people.
Man Teng said, "I'll send a few brothers to go with you."
"No need. It's better to have fewer people so that I don't have to take care of other things." An Yan signaled him that it was not necessary.
"It's only half an hour from here, not far." Mancao told them, and handed them a bottle of wine, saying, "This is what he likes to drink. Maybe he will be willing to listen to you."
"Okay, thank you very much." An Yan put away the wine and then motioned Li Rongsen to get on the boat with her.
There was a tailwind today, so the boat sailed smoothly to the island.
Li Rongsen said, "I'm just afraid of danger. My kung fu isn't up to par yet, so I'm afraid I can't help you."
"What kind of skills has the old man taught you recently?"
"It's all about fighting skills and how to use energy. It's just that my ability is limited and my performance is unstable." Li Rongsen said to her modestly.
An Yan smiled and said, "It's not that difficult actually. The most important thing is to concentrate."
"Yes, I understand." Li Rongsen nodded and asked her, "How sure are you?"
"Not a cent, but I still have to go take a look. The one who can hurt me hasn't appeared yet. I want to know if he's about to show up." An Yan said to him with a chuckle, and asked him, "Didn't the old man give you any weapons?"
"He hasn't taught her to this point yet." Li Rongsen told her the truth.
An Yan nodded slightly, and then reminded him: "If you can't beat it, hide, understand? But don't block it for me, especially by yourself, that's absolutely not allowed."
"We have to block it when we have to. How can a man be afraid of death?" Li Rongsen said seriously.
"I'll teach you a gesture to set up a barrier." An Yan said as she made a simple gesture, indicating that he should follow it.
