Many children, many blessings: Taking classmates' grandmothers on a desert island survival miss

Outside, the wind howled and the rain poured down.

The basic safe house, built of wood and stones, looked somewhat lonely in the wind and rain, but it was exceptionally sturdy.

Rainwater gathered on the roof and flowed down the eaves with a gurgling sound.

The interior space is not large, only fifty square meters.

For more than twenty adults, the place seemed very cramped, with people almost shoulder to shoulder, and they had to carefully find a place to stand.

The air was filled with the scent of fresh wood and a faint earthy smell.

Although the grandmothers had been frightened during the sampling, they had gradually calmed down now, sitting in this sheltered house. They huddled together in small groups, keeping each other warm.

In this cramped space, Jiang Che and Liu Wenying were undoubtedly the focus of everyone's attention.

Because of the limited space in the safe house, the grandmothers spontaneously began to move around.

They very tacitly squeezed around the perimeter of the house, deliberately creating the most spacious and warmest spot in the innermost corner of the safe house.

That location was close to the center of the room, avoiding the cool breeze that might seep in through the windows and doorways.

"Xiao Jiang, Sister Liu... Xiao Liu, you two have worked hard just now. Come on, go and rest in that corner." An old lady said, pointing to the empty spot.

"Yes, if it weren't for you, we old folks would probably be standing under some tree getting soaked in the rain right now. You're our heroes, you should get some rest." Another grandmother chimed in, turning her back as if afraid of disturbing the two of them.

Soon, the other grandmothers followed suit.

They not only reserved the best seats for Jiang Che and Liu Wenying, but also turned around one by one, facing the wall or whispering to each other, with their backs to the two in the corner.

In fact, this is not only out of gratitude, but also out of the selfishness of these grandmothers who have lived most of their lives.

They had just clearly seen Jiang Che's talent in the team panel.

The SSS-level talent called "Many Children, Many Blessings" made these older folks blush and their hearts race when they read its description, but the reward details were something they couldn't ignore.

Especially the changes in Liu Wenying are right before our eyes.

Originally, an old woman with wrinkles and a faltering gait, just like them, turned into a stunningly beautiful 18-year-old girl after drinking a bottle of medicine.

The visual impact is indescribable.

Who wouldn't want to regain their youth?

Who wouldn't want to get rid of this sick and disabled body?

In their view, since Jiang Che is the only man on the island, and Liu Wenying is the only one who has become younger, then if they could bring Jiang Che and Liu Wenying together and trigger Jiang Che's "many children, many blessings" talent, perhaps Jiang Che could once again obtain that magical "fountain of youth".

With the potion, these old ladies would all have a chance to return to being eighteen years old.

Driven by this shared interest and survival instinct, the grandmothers acted with unusual enthusiasm, even to the point of being somewhat deliberate.

Jiang Che and Liu Wenying stood in front of the empty corner, unsure whether to leave or sit.

A blush spread across Liu Wenying's stunningly beautiful face, all the way to her ears.

Although she understood what her old friends were thinking, she still felt extremely embarrassed when faced with this situation.

She kept her head down, her fingers fidgeting with the hem of her clothes.

Jiang Che also felt embarrassed.

After all, he was facing twenty grandmothers. Although Liu Wenying looked to be the same age as him, the psychological contrast still left him somewhat at a loss.

But in such a cramped environment, they really had nowhere else to go.

In the end, the two could only sit side by side in the most spacious spot.

Because of the limited space, Jiang Che and Liu Wenying could only stand back to back, pressed tightly together, so as not to crowd the grandmother next to them.

Jiang Che could clearly feel the warmth coming from his back.

It was the warmth of a young body; through the thin clothes, the outline of Liu Wenying's back was very clearly felt.

Liu Wenying could also feel the aura emanating from Jiang Che—a powerful heartbeat and masculine warmth.

The rain outside grew louder and louder, and the temperature in the enclosed space rose rapidly due to the large number of people.

An ambiguous and awkward atmosphere continued to build between the two.

Liu Wenying felt her back burning, her mind a jumbled mess, and she even began to subconsciously recall the talent description she had just seen.

"What is Jiang Che thinking right now?" Liu Wenying asked herself silently.

Jiang Che sat there, not daring to move, his breathing heavy.

He could hear the whispers of the grandmothers around him, deliberately kept to himself. Although he couldn't make out the details, he was sure they were related to them.

Just as the awkward atmosphere was about to reach its peak.

Sudden.

"Hey, Lao Wang, what's wrong?"

A gasp rang out in the quiet safe house.

The voice was filled with anxiety and panic, instantly shattering the ambiguous atmosphere.

Jiang Che and Liu Wenying separated abruptly as if electrocuted, turning their heads to look in the direction from which the sound came.

Near the door, several grandmothers were sitting together. One of them was tightly embracing another grandmother whose eyes were closed, calling out helplessly.

Jiang Che immediately stood up, squeezed through the crowd, and went over: "What's going on?"

Grandma Wang's face was abnormally flushed, her forehead was covered in fine beads of sweat, and her breathing was very rapid and weak. Jiang Che reached out and touched her forehead; it was frighteningly hot to the touch.

"It's so hot! She has a high fever!" Jiang Che exclaimed.

Although they had just built the wooden house, Grandma Wang was already in poor health. She had been exposed to too much cold wind and was frightened during the previous forest evacuation, and now her body could no longer withstand it.

She lay there, barely alive, and had lost consciousness.

In this environment, a sudden high fever is extremely dangerous. Without effective treatment, she might not survive the night.

"Let me take a look."

At this moment, an elderly woman with gray hair but a calm and composed look squeezed through the crowd.

Jiang Che remembered her; in the previous panel display, this grandmother had awakened an A-level pharmacist talent.

The pharmacist reached out to check on Grandma Wang, her brows furrowing and her expression becoming very serious.

"The situation is bad. She has been exposed to cold pathogens, and due to her age, her constitution is weak. Ordinary physical cooling methods won't work; she needs medication. I can use my talent to create a special heat-clearing and blood-stasis-dispersing medicine to treat this kind of high fever, which can quickly reduce the fever."

"That's what the pharmacist grandma said."

Upon hearing that there was hope, joy appeared on everyone's faces, but the pharmacist sighed again.

"But... even a skilled cook can't cook without rice. Although I have the recipe and the talent, I don't have the basic herbal ingredients needed to make the potion. And with my legs like this, I simply can't go out to gather them in this torrential rain."
