Chapter 299: Chapter 299: Immortal Meat
"You... you..."
"?"
The Foolish Boy looked at Lame Man Uncle with confusion, not understanding why he was acting so strangely.
Lame Man Uncle, however, was excitedly pulling the boy close, looking at him intently, "Heaven... heavens! Your neck... it’s gone!"
The Foolish Boy belatedly touched his own neck, finally understanding the feeling of strangeness that had come to him upon getting up.
Usually, he would feel incredibly heavy when getting out of bed, with a painful neck and a muddled head.
But today he had awoken feeling refreshed, light-bodied, free of neck pain, and his head was no longer foggy.
The abscess on his neck, which had been as big as his head and looked like it might burst at any moment, had disappeared!
There was still a slight swelling in his neck, but it was much better compared to before, and at least turning his head was no longer hindered.
Just as the Foolish Boy was steeped in shock and doubt, Lame Man Uncle began to examine the boy’s head, arms, and shoulders more thoroughly, becoming increasingly astonished.
"You... your head injuries, and all the scabies on your body, they’ve all healed!"
"???"
Coming to his senses a bit later, the Foolish Boy started to examine himself and, sure enough, found that the sore spots that had been unbearably itchy, weeping pus, and sometimes even harboring maggots were gone.
"Eh? What’s going on?" he asked in bewilderment.
Upon speaking, he was taken aback by his own voice. Usually, the abscesses on his neck would cause his voice to be hoarse and unpleasant, but now it had returned to normal.
"It’s... it’s supernatural!" Lame Man Uncle was shocked beyond words.
His astonishment caught the attention of the surrounding people, and before long, a large crowd had gathered around the Foolish Boy whose condition had improved overnight, staring at him as though he were a monkey on display.
Of course, nobody could have imagined that the Foolish Boy’s recovery had anything to do with Bai Junjun’s Magical Wood Water.
Therefore, as they observed the Foolish Boy’s overnight transformation, everyone believed it was a miracle.
And so, the chatterboxes couldn’t help but burst open.
"Say, have you noticed that you felt stronger in your arms and legs when you got up today?"
"I think I felt that way too."
"Bah, you felt strong because you ate meat yesterday!"
"Speaking of eating meat... could it be that the eagle meat has miraculous properties?"
The more the crowd discussed, the more they opened a door to new possibilities, increasingly convinced of the likelihood.
After all, many animals can be used in medicine, like Fox heart blood, pangolins, deer antler, bear’s paw, and so on. Perhaps the eagle could also be rare medicinal material.
Otherwise, how could they explain this overnight change?
And the Foolish Boy, who had changed the most, was also the one who had eaten the most.
By then, the Foolish Boy at the center of everyone’s discussion had lost his patience.
He didn’t care why he had healed; he just wanted to go find his friends.
But the crowd didn’t want to let him go, still curiously examining him, much to the Foolish Boy’s vexation!
Just as the Foolish Boy was about to throw a tantrum and run away, the main characters finally arrived at a leisurely pace.
Bai Junjun and Li Wenli had heard the commotion outside early in the morning and couldn’t help but come down to see what was happening.
After figuring out what had transpired, Bai Junjun and Li Wenli exchanged glances and decided to go along with the flow.
They pretended not to know about the miraculous effects of the eagle meat and also claimed that after a night’s sleep, they indeed no longer felt any pain in their backs or legs and could climb to the mountain top without stopping to catch their breath.
The crowd became even more convinced that the Man-eating Eagle was Immortal Meat.
Their eyes softened and became friendlier when looking at the two young hunters.
After all, it was they who had hunted the Man-eating Eagle, giving everyone else the chance to eat Immortal Meat.
Lame Man Uncle had originally planned to distribute salt among the villagers before everyone left for work, but now the topic had been switched to the Foolish Boy’s sudden recovery, and before they knew it, it was already the Dawn.
The matter of the salt would have to wait until evening.
They had no choice; if they were delayed, they would miss out on their daily ration.
