A mortal asks the heavens: I want to become an immortal

"Aniu, come back soon, it's going to rain."

Wu Aniu, who was having fun, immediately raised his head when he heard his mother's shout.

He saw the sky was covered with dark clouds and it looked like a rainstorm was coming. He couldn't help showing a slightly disappointed expression. Looking at the jumping game on the ground that had not yet ended, he could only shake his head helplessly and walk into the house.

Just as he stepped into the house, he saw a bright lightning flash across the sky, followed by a deafening thunder rumble, and bean-like rain poured down.

Seeing this scene, he immediately felt fortunate that he had just listened to his mother's words.

After lying on the window and watching the rain for a while, he remembered that his father had gone up the mountain to hunt with the adults and had not returned yet. He didn't know if he would be drenched by the heavy rain.

Turning his head to look at his mother who was beating corn, he asked softly: "Mom, I don't know if Dad and his friends can hunt prey today. It's raining so hard now, and he doesn't know if he will get wet."

Putting down the work in his hands, Qiuyun raised his head. Seeing that his sensible son could say this, he felt relieved.

"Aniu, your dad and his friends will be back soon. When they bring back prey, mom will make you delicious food."

Listening to his mother's words, Aniu was very happy. When he thought of the delicious meat, his mouth almost drooled.

He counted carefully and found that the family had not eaten meat for almost a month.

Seeing his son's greedy look, Qiuyun couldn't help but smile in his heart, and then saw the corn in his hand, and felt a little sad again.

She couldn't help thinking that although Ah Niu was only nine years old this year, his appetite was amazing. He ate five or six bowls of corn for every meal, which was more than what she and his father ate combined.

This kid was different from other kids when he was young. He could eat since he was young. At the beginning, she was afraid that he would get sick, but after observing for a long time, she found that he was fine.

Not only that, this kid couldn't get fat no matter how much he ate. I really don't know where he digested all the food.

The most important problem is that because this kid can eat more and more, the food at home is almost gone.

Thinking of these things, she began to pray in her heart, hoping that the child's father could catch some valuable prey this time.

Wu Ah Niu had no idea what his mother was thinking. At this moment, he had returned to his room and touched his belly, which had begun to cry. He felt helpless.

Why, I'm hungry.

Although he had to eat a lot of food at every meal, only he knew that he only ate half full every time. You may ask why he didn't eat more.

He wanted to eat more, but every time he saw his mother eating only a little bit of food, and the food at home was constantly decreasing, even though he was young, he knew that he couldn't eat until he was full. Once the food at home was eaten up before the autumn harvest, his father, mother and he would starve.

Now his biggest hope is that his father can bring back a big prey.

Lying on the bed, he was extremely bored. After thinking about it, he squatted on the ground and looked at something. This thing was as big as a human head, a big black lump, and looked like a stone jar.

He picked it up outside. Why did he pick it up? It was because it was very heavy and could hold some things.

To say how heavy this stone jar is, he estimated that it must weigh at least more than a thousand pounds. As for why he knew the weight of this thing, it was because Wu Aniu could pick it up steadily.

Yes, you read it right. At this moment, Wu Aniu was holding the stone jar with both hands, exerting all his strength, and lifted the stone weighing more than a thousand pounds at once.

Once, twice, three times...

He lifted and put it down ten times before he threw it on the ground.

He wiped the sweat from his head and couldn't help but shout in his heart that it was exciting.

Looking at the stone jar on the ground, Wu Aniu looked at his hands again. In fact, he himself felt strange. He had been surprisingly strong since he was a child. When he was three years old, he could pick up more than 200 pounds of things, which was equivalent to the strength of an adult.

At that time, he was called a god by the villagers, but when he understood something, he learned to hide his strength. On the one hand, he didn't want to be treated as a monster by people, and on the other hand, he didn't want his mother to think too much. If he ate less, his mother would doubt him. He didn't want his mother to be too embarrassed for him.

After that, no one could see his ability anymore, and slowly everyone forgot about it.

So even my father and mother didn't know how strong he was.

Although being strong was good, he ate too much, so he had to go out to find food by himself. But recently, for some reason, there were many animals in the area of ​​dozens of miles, but now they have disappeared. So my father and the villagers went out and went deeper into the forest.

In the vast forest, twenty or thirty people were slowly searching for prey. These people were the people in Wu Aniu's village.

His father Wu Chen was among them.

"Village chief, we still haven't encountered suitable prey. There are powerful beasts in the deep forest on this rainy night. Now we have walked too far. If we walk a few more miles, we will have to go out of the forest and into the inside."

The mighty and strong village chief looked at the old man beside him and nodded slightly.

"Uncle Abu, I know that, but you can see that there are no decent prey in the outer area. The people in the village need meat, and they need the fur and bones of wild beasts to exchange for gold coins to buy food. We can only move forward this time, but I promise that if we still don't find suitable prey after walking a few miles, we will go back."

The old man called Abu, after listening to these words, could only sigh slightly and continued to walk forward behind the village chief. Tianlai Novel Network

Watching the two continue to move forward, the villagers behind them certainly had no objection and all followed them and walked forward.

Wu Chen looked at the village chief in front of him, and then at the trees that were getting thicker and thicker. He always felt uneasy, but thinking about his children and wife at home, and thinking about the rice jar that would soon be empty, he could only follow the village chief more cautiously.

At this time, a black giant bear standing more than four meters tall in the depths of the forest suddenly sniffed with his nose, and then saw it running excitedly, and the direction it ran was exactly where the villagers were.

"Tick, tick"

The rain became lighter, and it fell down in the gap between the trees that several people hugged.
