"You fell on your head before, and I felt uneasy, so I asked people from our village who work in the town to pass a message to them. I guess it will only take two days." Mrs. Wang thought for a moment and said.

"What's wrong? Big girl."

"It's okay, grandma. I just wanted to ask because I haven't seen my dad and fourth uncle for a long time." Li Lan replied with a smile.

After dinner, since there was nothing to do, we all went back to our rooms to get ready for bed.

Because of her previous injury, Li Lan had been sleeping in the same room with Zhang at night. After returning to her room, she climbed onto the kang and looked at Zhang, who was already lying there. She wondered how she could find a way to explain her change. Otherwise, it wouldn't take long before the villagers would directly pray for rain.

"Mom, I want to tell you something." She thought about it and said to Zhang.

"What's wrong, little girl?" When Zhang heard that her daughter wanted to tell her something, she did it quickly while speaking.

"Mom, I'm telling you this, don't be afraid. I really don't know who to tell." Li Lan said with a deliberately frightened expression.

"My daughter, I know what you want to say." Zhang took Li Lan's hand and patted it.

He paused for a moment, as if reminiscing about the past, and then slowly said, "You were often sick before you were three years old. At that time, you went to the town clinic to see a doctor, and he said that you wouldn't live past eight years old. But your father and I didn't believe it. We thought that if you took good care of yourself, you would definitely make it past eight. It would be fine if you could make it."

Thinking of the past, Zhang couldn't help but sigh.

"Alas, but who would have thought that when you were 8 years old, not long after the beginning of spring, you followed your father to the pond in the back mountain to wash wild animals." Having said this, Zhang paused.

Then he gritted his teeth and said, "Your father, that big thick guy, only knows how to wash and doesn't care about you. You wanted to go and see how your father washed, and you accidentally slipped into the sink."

After saying that, Zhang looked at Li Lan again and whispered, "Although your father got you out in time, you started to have a fever at night and were talking nonsense, talking about airplanes and 'don't leave me alone'... Oh, it makes me so heartbroken."

"After taking the medicine, he still had a fever the next day, and the whole family was very worried. At this time, a Taoist priest came to the door to ask for water. Your grandfather was still alive at that time. When he saw the Taoist priest at the door, he went to pour a bowl of water for him. After drinking the water, the Taoist priest asked your grandfather if there was a sick little girl in the family. When your grandfather heard it, he nodded in surprise. Then the Taoist priest asked your grandfather to pour another bowl of water, and said to the bowl, "Let your grandfather give you the bowl of water to drink, and you will be fine after drinking it." He also told your grandfather that you will have a great disaster at the age of 13, and after the disaster you will be reborn and will be rich and powerful." Zhang said vividly.

"Your grandfather gave it to me and asked me to feed you that bowl of water. Unexpectedly, after about an hour, your fever really subsided and you were fine." Zhang exclaimed.

Li Lan opened his mouth in shock, but was speechless.

Seeing Li Lan's expression, Zhang came closer and whispered, "Your grandfather only told your grandmother, me, and your father what the Taoist priest said. He didn't tell anyone else. Your grandfather said that too many people gossiping is not good for you."

Li Lan couldn't help but give a thumbs up to her late grandfather in her heart.

"It's quite mysterious. Well, there's no need to find excuses. Did I really come here when I was a child? It seems that I really am the chosen one." Li Lan was very proud and laughed accidentally.

Zhang looked at her daughter and couldn't help laughing.

"Go to sleep quickly, you have to fetch water tomorrow." Zhang said and lay down again.

"Hey, Mom, Mom, don't sleep yet, I haven't finished talking yet," Li Lan hurriedly stopped her.

"What? What else?" Zhang looked at Li Lan with a questioning look on her face.

"Mom, you don't know, when I was 8 years old, I had a fever and was drowsy, and I went to a very special world. Do you know what the airplane you heard about is? It is a big bird that can carry people and fly in the sky." Thinking of the airplane, Li Lan's eyes lit up.

"What the hell is this? A big bird that people can sit on? Could that be where immortals live? Oh my god, my daughter is so amazing." Zhang widened her eyes and said in disbelief.

"Yes, isn't that where the immortals live? I was injured and unconscious again, and the immortal there heard me say we were having a drought, so he gave me a tool that can find water sources." Li Lan said proudly. As he spoke, he used his consciousness to produce a water source detector.

Zhang was startled when she saw the black suitcase that suddenly appeared. She said tremblingly, "My girl, how did you get this out?"

"Mom, the immortal gave me a small house, which is filled with things given by the immortal. The immortal said that I need to take them myself." Li Lan said seriously.

Zhang was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, feeling extremely proud. "My daughter is so lucky. She even received guidance from an immortal."

"That's right, mother. You can just wait and enjoy your life from now on."

"Okay, I'll wait. Oh my goodness, is this the thing you said can find water?"

After saying this, Zhang reached out and carefully touched the suitcase, exclaiming, "This immortal's stuff is really good."

Suddenly, Zhang became serious and cautious, saying, "Girl, don't tell anyone yet. Wait until your father and fourth uncle come back."

"Okay, Mom, I understand." Li Lan answered seriously.

Li Lan lay on the kang, thinking about how she had to talk to Wang Po-zi tomorrow, so she wouldn't have to bother talking to her when her fourth uncle and the others returned. She had originally planned to go deep into the West Mountain to see if there was anything edible. Now it seemed she would have to wait. But life was good; she had family to rely on.

As I thought about it, I fell asleep peacefully.

When he woke up in the morning, he found that Zhang was no longer on the kang. Li Lan quickly got dressed, put on his shoes and went out.

Outside the house, Li Run and Li He were squatting on the ground feeding the chickens.

"Xiaorun, Xiaohe, where is our grandma?" Li Lan asked.

Before they could answer, Wang Po's voice came from the small path in the west.

"I'm here, big girl." After a while, Wang Po came out, patting the dirt off her hands as she spoke.

"Come on, follow grandma into the house." After saying that, he walked forward first.

"Okay, milk." Li Lan said.

As soon as he entered the room, he sat down on the kang.

Mrs. Wang said, "Grandma knows everything. Your mother told me early in the morning. You don't have to be afraid. We have your fourth uncle at home. As long as your fourth uncle is here, there is no problem that cannot be solved." After saying that, she patted Li Lan's shoulder gently.

Li Lan looked at the woman in front of him, whose face was frosted from years of hard work and looked like she was in her fifties at forty-eight. He felt a pang in his heart and opened his mouth, but no words came out.

"The Taoist priest told your grandfather about it before, but I didn't believe it." Mrs. Wang said with a smile.

"Until you fell down the hillside this time... I believed it. Today your mother told me about the immortals, and I believed it even more. I felt that it was God who sent you to save us. We have all had such a hard time these years." Mrs. Wang held Li Lan's hand tightly and looked at her lovingly.

"Okay, grandma, I will definitely use what I got from the immortal to benefit the villagers." Li Lan choked up.

"Okay, okay, my granddaughter has always been the best." Mrs. Wang said with relief.

Li Lan walked outside, looked at the still gloomy sky, clenched his fists, and murmured, "Fourth Uncle, I've been waiting for you to come back."
