The Whole Village Thrives After Adopting a Lucky Girl-Chapter 489 - 485: Divine Tree_1
Chapter 489: Chapter 485: Divine Tree_1
In fact, Wei Zhan had just comprehended a bit. The Eternal Spring Technique only reached the first level, yet it was enough to treat an elderly man with sub-health conditions.
A soft glow shrouded Grandma Tang. After a short while, the glow dissipated, revealing Grandma Tang looking radiant with her previously sallow complexion glowing with health and vitality.
Especially, her originally dull lips now showed a vibrant light red colour.
Grandma Tang took a light breath and felt unprecedentedly relaxed. Her various inner aches and pains were gone, and she immediately stood up to bow to Wei Zhan: “I am deeply grateful to you, Lord.”
Wei Zhan reached out a hand toward her, motioning for Grandma Tang to sit down.
Turning his head to see Clan Leader Chen looking at him expectantly, he smiled and performed the Eternal Spring Technique on him as well.
If just the first level of this technique could rejuvenate ordinary people, would reaching the highest ninth level allow him to bring the dead back to life?
Thinking like this, Wei Zhan used the telepathic secret art to inquire of his wife.
Yingbao replied: perhaps, but it wouldn’t work if the person’s soul has already dissipated.
This spell would have a massive impact on ordinary people and natural living creatures. However, for high-level cultivators and high-level spiritual grasses and beasts in the Fairy World, it would merely slightly extend their lifespan and restore some injuries.
Wei Zhan understood and was happy in his heart.
After practicing for a while longer and refining the technique to the third level, he will try it on his father.
No matter what, that was his father. He couldn’t just stand by and watch him age and die while he and his mother enjoyed a long life.
Next, Wei Zhan performed it on his grandfather-in-law, Old Man Jiang, and his wife, Jiang Liu, as well as the gathered Chen Sanyou and his wife, and his Master.
There were a few elderly village folks who couldn’t get around because of their failing legs. They didn’t come over, so at the request of their families, Wei Zhan went to their homes to perform the spell respectively.
An old man, who had been bedridden and skinny for half a year, tremblingly stood up and, supported by his grandchildren, thanked Wei Zhan.
At this point, the whole village was abuzz.
Many people brought their children and rushed over. Some even carried their elderly parents to the Jiang Family to ask Wei Zhan for treatment.
Wei Zhan didn’t say anything and continued to perform the spell.
Interestingly, with each person he treated, the Eternal Spring Technique suddenly advanced to the second level.
At the second level, the Eternal Spring Technique could not only cure minor diseases and pains but also heal broken bones rapidly.
Of course, it didn’t mean growing a limb back. Rather, it helped restore functionality to the broken parts.
After everyone in the village left, Yingbao sat down with her family to talk.
At this time, Jiang Sanlang and his elder brother Jiang Dalang returned. Seeing their daughter sitting intact in the living room, they were both startled and joyous.
Yingbao and Wei Zhan paid their respects to their father, then began to discuss their plans with the family.
However, their grandparents and their uncle and aunt shook their heads, refusing to live in the Divine Mansion. They were used to living in this village. They found joy in their daily interactions with their fellow villagers and didn’t want to leave their homeland.
Yingbao knew they would respond this way, so she proposed a second plan.
She would set up an array for the entire village, using a spirit stone as the basis, and suffuse the village with spiritual energy. So, the people living there could also live longer in the future.
“Good idea. Let’s do it that way.” The Jiang brothers and their old father unanimously approved with both hands.
Although they didn’t understand what arrays and spiritual energy were, Yingbao was an immortal. Whatever she decided must be right.
Next, Yingbao used one hundred and eight top-grade Spirit Stones as cornerstones to create an array for the village. The array’s core was right at his house. If anyone dared to behave inappropriately in the village, his father could directly expel them.
This way, the safety of the village was ensured.
While setting up the array, Yingbao glanced at Xichen Village next door, the market outside the village, and the houses of those who had come to settle here. After a thought, he included them as well.
When the array was established, all the plants in the village had unexpectedly thrived a bit more.
The Clan Leader and the elderly villagers were all overjoyed.
With their youth long gone, who would not want to live a few more years? Now that Yingbao had given them hope to live on, the older villagers were so grateful they were in tears.
Yingbao didn’t hide these actions from anybody. He even relocated an evergreen tree from the Immortal Cultivation World to the center of the village.
The tree was extremely tall, its trunk was gnarled, and its leaves were dense. In the daytime, it could absorb turbid energy, and at night, it would emit Spiritual Energy. It was a treasure for Immortal cultivating families to protect their homes.
After doing all this, Yingbao also brought the frail Youyou and his descendants into the Divine Mansion, hoping they would live a little longer there.
A few days later, people from several neighboring villages came to know that a divine tree had grown overnight in Dongchen Village. Many people came forward to worship it, bringing along their old and young family members, hoping that the divine tree would keep their families safe and healthy.
At first, the people of Dongchen Village didn’t mind, but soon they discovered that some outsiders were extremely disrespectful, secretly plucking the leaves of the divine tree when no one was looking.
This angered the villagers of Dongchen Village, especially the Clan Leader. His beard stood on end with anger, and he ordered the villagers to drive these people out, never to allow them into the village again.
“Why won’t you let us in!” The expelled people were unwilling and yelled out: “The divine tree is for everyone. You can’t be so overbearing!”
The Clan Leader scoffed, “This is our village’s divine tree. We allowed you to come in and worship it out of kindness, but you dared to pluck its leaves…”
“Exactly! Do you think you have the right to pluck its leaves?” Many villagers, holding sticks in their hands, pointed at the outsiders and said: “Not killing you on the spot already counts as lenient! Don’t ever come in again!”
“Yes! Outsiders are not allowed in!”
Many people from Xichen Village and a few other villages around shoved those outsiders, pushing them out of the boundary.
It was easy to recognize the boundary, where vegetation grew luxuriantly, all belonged inside it; that was, under the divine tree’s protection. This was the villagers’ understanding.
Eventually, the outsiders reluctantly left.
The implicated outsiders, out of anger, punched and kicked the people who had secretly plucked the divine tree’s leaves.
In the following days, people continued to come and worship the divine tree, but the Clan Leader set the schedule, only permitting outsiders to come on the fifteenth day of each month, and they must not approach within 10 feet of the tree trunk.
Surprisingly, those who were physically weak felt much better after spending a whole day in Dongchen Village on the fifteenth day of each month. Even some long-standing illnesses seemed to have improved.
As a result, more and more people came to Dongchen Village for sightseeing and worship, and many landed up settling down around the village or market, including quite a few wealthy people from the town.
The Clan Leader’s second son and a few smart ones quickly built an inn outside the village, specifically for the tourists’ business.
As a result, the area of the market expanded further, with various restaurants and inns mushrooming, and various snack shops sprung up like bamboo shoots after a spring rain. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
Chen Zhao and his wife also built a large restaurant on the market and helped his younger brother, Xubao, to build an inn next to it.
One day, Sun Licheng arrived at Dongchen Village, found Jiang Dalang and said, “Dalang, I also want to buy a house in the village. Can you make some concessions?”
Now Sun Licheng was no longer serving as the Lizheng, having handed over his duties to his eldest son, who followed his father’s footsteps.
Luckily, his family had been fair and did not collude with the officials.
