She had been bitten by a venomous snake!
Er Zhu frowned slightly. Seeing Yao Na's complexion darken, he slowly squatted down.
Without further ado, Er Zhu directly lifted Yao Na's skirt.
Indeed, on the inner side of her calf, a fang mark stained with blood caught Er Zhu's attention!
It was a Chinese tree viper!
The Chinese tree viper was the most venomous snake in these back mountains. A bite from it would be fatal within minutes!
Er Zhu wasted no more time. He took out his silver needles and, looking at the bloody fang mark, quickly began acupuncture.
Swish, swish, swish…
Needle after needle was swiftly inserted into the corresponding acupoints. Although her face was still dark, the condition was no longer worsening.
Yao Na also felt warm currents spreading through her nerves, making her feel comfortable and considerably more lucid!
Isn't this Er Zhu from the village?
Yao Na tilted her head slightly, preparing to thank her benefactor. But she never expected the person saving her to be the village's much-maligned fool!
He knew how to cure snake venom!
He understood medicine!
Each shocking realization hit Yao Na like a wave, leaving her disoriented. She opened her mouth to ask something, but ultimately said nothing.
Er Zhu paid no attention to Yao Na; his eyes were fixed on the silver needles swaying on her leg.
He had already used the needles to neutralize the poison in her body. The next step was to extract the snake venom.
But in this desolate wilderness, where could he find something to suck the venom out?
Logically, in such a situation, one should use their mouth. But looking at Yao Na's slender, fair, and long legs, Er Zhu felt a heat rising in his lower abdomen.
At this moment, he shouldn't be having such thoughts.
But those long legs were simply too tempting!
The flesh on her legs was perfectly proportioned, without a trace of excess fat, leading directly to a shadowed valley.
Even though Yao Na was wearing safety shorts, a hint of alluring black could still be glimpsed!
These weren't the main point, though. The crucial issue was that the posture required for sucking out the venom would be too intimate!
Those who knew would understand he was treating an illness, but others might think he was…
Thinking this, Er Zhu shook his head, banishing the inappropriate images from his mind.
"Suck it out, please!"
Just as Er Zhu was hesitating, he suddenly heard a faint voice.
Er Zhu looked up and saw Yao Na looking at him with a pained expression.
"Please, I don't want to die!"
Yao Na looked at Er Zhu with tears in her eyes. She shook her head slightly, pleading desperately.
Er Zhu didn't speak. He suddenly lunged forward, and Yao Na felt a warmth.
"Mmm…"
Yao Na couldn't help but let out a soft moan, which made Er Zhu's lower abdomen heat up again, despite his earlier resolve.
Damn, I didn't expect treating an illness to come with such a test!
Yao Na's face turned red with embarrassment, surprised at the sound she had made!
That sound was incredibly suggestive!
As the warm, venomous blood entered his mouth, Er Zhu once again pushed aside his thoughts. He released her fair leg and spat out a mouthful of blood with a "wow."
He didn't know how many times this process was repeated. Er Zhu finally wiped his mouth and looked at Yao Na with a flushed face.
"It's done. The snake venom has been neutralized."
Hearing this, Yao Na quickly pulled down her skirt. She curled up to the side, her face blushing, and looked at Er Zhu with complex emotions.
She should thank Er Zhu, but she couldn't bring herself to say it.
"Don't say anything. It's not safe on the mountain. Hurry home."
Er Zhu naturally noticed Yao Na's awkwardness. He wiped the venomous blood from the corner of his mouth and slowly stood up.
"Thank you."
Only after Er Zhu had walked away did Yao Na softly express her gratitude.
She gazed at Er Zhu's retreating figure and thought about what had just happened. She suddenly realized she had developed a liking for Er Zhu!
"Oh dear, what am I thinking! How embarrassing!"
Yao Na shook her head, covered her face shyly, and ran down the mountain.
The sky had just begun to darken when Er Zhu finally descended the mountain.
Feeling the weight of the ginseng in his basket, Er Zhu smiled with satisfaction.
These ginseng seedlings were enough for his two plots of land. Combined with the wild ginseng he had collected, it would be a considerable income!
With this thought, Er Zhu's smile widened, and he felt invigorated!
When he returned home, Li Mei had already prepared dinner.
After a joyful dinner with Li Mei, he resumed his cultivation.
"Kid, your foundation is too weak right now. Cultivate this 'Myriad Nourishment Method' diligently; it will greatly benefit you in the future!"
Just as Er Zhu was focused on his cultivation, the Dragon King in his mind suddenly spoke.
As his voice faded, Er Zhu felt a golden ancient book appear in his mind.
Simultaneously, the characters on the ancient book instantly transformed into glowing, spiritual script and flew into his mind.
"Myriad Nourishment, Heavenly Dao Reincarnation!"
Finally, when Er Zhu opened his eyes, these eight characters were all he remembered.
Myriad Nourishment Method?
What is this for?
Er Zhu looked at the rising sun in the east, a hint of confusion in his eyes.
In the blink of an eye, a week passed.
The ginseng seedlings had long been planted, and the wild ginseng had sold for a hundred thousand yuan!
Er Zhu felt that keeping so much cash was troublesome, so he stole his ID card and opened a bank account.
Weighing the bank card in his hand, Er Zhu unknowingly walked towards a mobile phone store.
"Right, he needs to buy a mobile phone."
Looking at the large advertising board, Er Zhu's eyes lit up with the thought of a phone.
Previously, Li Mei thought he was foolish and was afraid he would break a phone, so she never bought him one.
But now, he wasn't foolish anymore. Why hadn't he bought one yet?
Besides, having a phone would make communication more convenient.
With that thought, Er Zhu entered the mobile phone store.
As soon as he walked in, he was noticed by a girl in uniform.
This girl was none other than Xiao Yu, who had been driven away by Wang Xiaomei last time!
The moment she saw Er Zhu, Xiao Yu's eyes were filled with fury!
Talk about a narrow road for enemies!
She had been wondering how to get revenge on this country bumpkin, and now he had walked right into her trap!
Er Zhu scanned the entire store and happened to see Xiao Yu.
He saw Xiao Yu's face turn red as she stared intently at him, as if they had a deep-seated hatred!
But Er Zhu was not afraid. He simply gave her a calm glance and walked towards her.
Originally, Er Zhu had no intention of buying this brand of phone.
But since Xiao Yu was here, he decided to buy it!
Otherwise, Xiao Yu would think he was afraid of her.
"Country bumpkin, these are all high-end phones here. Can you afford one?"
Before Er Zhu could speak, Xiao Yu asked with a smile and a sarcastic tone.
Er Zhu ignored her. His eyes were fixed on the phones on the counter.
Since he was buying one, why not buy one for Sister Mei as well?
Sister Mei's phone had been used for many years; it was long overdue for a replacement…
