Perfect: I am Shi An from Shicun, and I am Huang’s brother!

Chapter 23 Shi Hao Lifts the Cauldron
The medicinal bath lasted for a long time. In a blink of an eye, the moonlight fell all over the village. The children were soaked like red-skinned monkeys. They looked miserable and looked at each other. Tears suddenly flowed down their cheeks and did not stop until the medicinal bath was over.

However, the little one who looked like a porcelain doll did not cry. Instead, his big black eyes rolled around. Although his little face was also as red as a big apple, he was staggering as if he was drunk when he was taken out.

Seeing this, an old man couldn't help but ask curiously: "How does it feel?"

However, the response he got was a burp and a muffled sound...
"I'm full."

Not only the adults but even the older children couldn't help but be amused by the little one's heartless and innocent response.

"Sleepy."

However, the little guy didn't care about all this. After saying "I'm sleepy" in a daze, he fell directly into Shi Yunfeng's arms, babbled softly, and fell into a deep sleep.

Seeing this, Shi Yunfeng shook his head secretly, then looked at the others and said, "Take the children back. Get a good night's sleep tonight. I think they will have gained a lot of strength tomorrow."

"Yes!"

Everyone obeyed the order and took their little ones back home.

As for the few elderly people who stayed behind, they cleaned up the remaining liquid after everyone left.

Although most of the medicinal effects have been absorbed by the children, even if there is not much left, as long as it is properly mixed, it can still be a precious medicine for healing. If you bring it with you when hunting in the mountains, it may save your life.

On the other hand, Shi An did not fall asleep after returning home. Instead, he told stories to his little sister while she was babbling.

This also made the younger brother beside him quite dissatisfied: "Why does big brother tell stories to little sister and not to me?"

"You!"

Seeing his younger brother's indignant look, Shi An couldn't help but shook his head and smiled, then said softly: "I didn't ask you not to listen."

As soon as Shi An finished speaking, his younger brother Shi Hu immediately said with a sad face: "But I don't want to hear the story of Snow White or Xu Xian and the White Snake. I want to hear the story of the monkey making trouble in the Heavenly Palace!"

Hearing this, Shi An patted Shi Hu's head and said with a smile: "Why rush? There are many stories, but we have to tell them one by one."

"Let me finish listening to this tonight, and then I'll let you listen to it to your heart's content tomorrow, how about that?"

"And tomorrow I can tell you a special version of the Monkey King's Havoc in Heaven. You know, our village is part of that story."

Upon hearing this, Shi Hu's eyes suddenly lit up, like the brightest stars in the night sky. He then wiped away his non-existent tears and asked Shi An excitedly, "Really? Big brother, will that monkey come to our village and hunt with us to fight against those ferocious beasts and birds of prey?"

Seeing Shi Hu's adorable, almost overly excited look, Shi An didn't spoil his fun. Instead, he nodded and smiled, "Of course, in that special story, the monkey not only caused chaos in the Heavenly Palace, but also secretly came down to earth with a giant bird and transformed themselves into the guardians of our village, helping everyone drive away the ferocious beasts and protect their homes."

Hearing this, the light in Shi Hu's eyes became brighter. Even the little sister, who was a little dissatisfied with her second brother interrupting her story, couldn't help but stop babbling and stared at Shi An with her big eyes. It was obvious that she was also attracted by the new story that was about to unfold.

"but·······"

Unfortunately, to their disappointment, Shi An did not intend to tell the story right away. Instead, he changed the subject and said, "If you want to know the specific adventures of the monkey and how he became the guardian of our village, you must sleep well tonight and get enough rest."

"Then I'll tell you tomorrow. Otherwise, there's nothing to tell you!"

Hearing Shi An say this, although they were very disappointed, they did not make a fuss. Instead, they climbed into bed obediently and fell asleep. Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was a new day.

Early in the morning, at the urging of the adults, the children got up early, and after a simple wash, they gathered in the open space in the village.

Apparently, having just had a big medicinal bath last night, the adults couldn't wait to see the results today.

"Go, lift up that millstone for me."

"Father, that's what third brother used to exercise his strength on a daily basis. How can I lift it up?"

"Stop talking nonsense, just lift it up! Did all that blood and bone medicine last night go to waste? If you don't improve, I'll spank your butt into eight pieces!"

········
For a while, there was chaos in Shi Village. A group of children were forced to move big stones and carry bronze tripods, which made them complain about the pain.

It’s true, the effect of last night’s medicinal bath was really good. The children gained a lot of strength and their physical fitness was significantly improved.

"Not bad!"

Seeing that the little ones had obviously gained a lot of strength compared to before, the adults were delighted and started to praise them.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, there was a loud noise, the ground shook violently, smoke and dust rose, and everyone's attention was attracted. Everyone was surprised to find that someone was lifting a tripod!
Under the shocked gazes of the crowd, a tiny figure like a white porcelain doll was lifting a huge tripod weighing over a thousand pounds above its head.

Everyone was stunned and could hardly believe what they saw. Although they had heard that the little guy's physique was far superior to that of his peers, they still didn't expect his body to be so abnormal.

It is really amazing that such a young child can lift a thousand-pound tripod!

What was this? It looked like the child of a golden-winged Roc, or the offspring of a pure-blooded Pixiu King. This tiny creature might actually be comparable to the cubs of those true ancient beasts!
"Could it be that the mysterious power of the bone script is being used?"

Perhaps because this scene was too shocking, some people couldn't help but ask questions.

But Shi Linhu said very confidently: "No, I saw it clearly, this is pure physical strength."

"boom!"

There was another loud bang, and the little guy suddenly threw the bronze tripod to the ground, causing a cloud of dust. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and stepped back immediately, so he was not covered by the raised dust.

However, this huge noise once again made the villagers' hearts tighten. This is really a monster, just like...

Thinking of this, everyone's eyes unconsciously turned to Shi An who was practicing under the lightning tree. He was also so amazing back then!
Feeling everyone's gaze, Shi An, who had been practicing quietly, couldn't help but open his eyes, looked at everyone with a puzzled look and asked, "What's wrong?"

However, before everyone could answer, Shi An understood why they were looking at him after seeing Shi Hao standing in front of a huge cauldron.

It seems that the shock Shi Hao brought to them made them think of themselves.

Shaking his head, Shi An calmed down again and entered into a state of cultivation.
