Before he knew it, the trace of Dragon Qi within him began to circulate, faintly emanating a Dragon Might from his body.
This was the pressure belonging to the Dragon Race, the sovereign of all beasts.
Sure enough, the white-eyed tiger on the rock, sensing the terrifying Dragon Might, immediately looked at Chen Erzhu with immense fear, let out a low growl, turned around, and leaped away, disappearing in a few bounds.
Chen Erzhu was taken aback.
"It just left? Seriously, this big guy is too weak! I was hoping to exchange a few moves with it!"
He felt a bit speechless.
Just then, he heard Wu Qingyu's slightly pained voice from behind.
"Erzhu, I... I'm poisoned!"
"What? What's going on?"
Chen Erzhu was shocked. Turning around, he saw Wu Qingyu sitting on the ground, her face pale and full of pain.
Her jeans on the right leg were rolled up, revealing a once smooth and flawless jade leg now marked with a distinct snake bite, the surrounding skin already turning black.
It was clearly a bite from a venomous snake.
He immediately squatted down to examine it carefully.
Wu Qingyu, in pain, said, "I accidentally stepped back into the bushes, not expecting a venomous cobra to be there, and it bit me! Erzhu, I'm done for. The village's antidote for snake venom just ran out, and there's no serum either. In this wilderness, there's no way to find herbs!"
The more she spoke, the more desperate she became.
Was she destined to die here today?
The snake's venom was extremely potent, and there was no time to get to town.
But she was still young; she didn't want to die!
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but cry. Visit g.com for the full chapter.
As she cried, she suddenly felt a strange sensation on her leg.
Looking down, she saw Chen Erzhu using his mouth to suck out the venom.
She was stunned!
Her face flushed red; it was the first time someone had kissed her leg, her most private area. It was so embarrassing, and the sensation was like an electric shock!
But soon, she reacted and shouted, "Erzhu, are you crazy? The snake's venom is potent. Stop it, don't suck anymore. What if you get poisoned too?"
However, Chen Erzhu didn't stop. After sucking about ten times and extracting most of the venom, he finally stopped.
Wu Qingyu looked at him, her heart filled with deep emotion, crying, "Erzhu, you're so good to me, risking your life to save me. I've never met anyone so kind to me!"
At this, Chen Erzhu grinned mischievously, "Qingyu, how are you going to repay me? If you want to offer yourself, I wouldn't refuse!"
Saying this, Chen Erzhu, like performing a magic trick, took out three jade needles. With a swift motion, he inserted the needles around Wu Qingyu's leg wound.
The technique left Wu Qingyu stunned, exclaiming in shock, "Erzhu, you know acupuncture?"
Chen Erzhu smiled, "I know a little! Don't move. I've temporarily sealed the meridians around your wound. Soon, the remaining venom will be expelled!"
Hearing this, Wu Qingyu was full of doubt, "Really? Can acupuncture do that? I don't believe it, Erzhu, don't fool me. My grandpa knows acupuncture too, and he taught me!"
Chen Erzhu chuckled, "This isn't ordinary acupuncture. Just watch!"
Wu Qingyu still didn't believe it, but soon she saw, just as Chen Erzhu said, a trickle of blackened blood with a foul smell flowing from her wound.
Chen Erzhu gently wiped away the blackened blood. When the blood from the wound turned bright red, he swiftly retrieved the three needles, again like a magic trick, storing the Creation Divine Needles into the Xuanhuang Treasure Pagoda.
Wu Qingyu was utterly amazed.
She never expected the snake venom to actually be expelled.
How was this possible? What kind of acupuncture was this? Why had she never heard of it?
Not just her, even her grandpa probably hadn't heard of it.
She stared at Chen Erzhu with wide, curious eyes, not blinking.
Chen Erzhu, having used the Creation Divine Needles for the first time, felt a bit uncertain and asked, "Qingyu, how do you feel?"
Wu Qingyu stood up, full of energy, lively and spirited, exclaiming in surprise, "How strange, Erzhu. I should feel weak after being poisoned and losing so much blood, but why do I feel so energetic? I feel stronger than usual!"
Chen Erzhu internally rolled his eyes. It was because of the three strands of Dragon Qi he infused into her during the treatment.
Dragon Qi was truly a wonderful thing!
It seemed he shouldn't easily treat others in the future, as it meant transferring the Dragon Qi he painstakingly cultivated to others.
However, when his cultivation improved, losing a bit of Dragon Qi wouldn't matter.
Looking at the excited Wu Qingyu, he smiled, "Alright, as long as you're okay!"
Wu Qingyu suddenly stared at him and asked, "Erzhu, what technique did you just use?"
"I just picked it up randomly, don't laugh at me!" Chen Erzhu said modestly.
Wu Qingyu immediately rolled her eyes, "Erzhu, you're underestimating me. I've seen the world, you know. To be honest, my family is a traditional Chinese medicine family. My grandpa is very skilled in acupuncture, but he can't compare to you! In today's situation, even if my grandpa were here, he'd be helpless!"
"Really?"
Chen Erzhu was surprised. So this girl came from a prestigious family of traditional Chinese medicine.
"Of course it's true. Why would I lie to you? Erzhu, I'll take you to my home later and let my grandpa see your skills. I bet he'll be amazed!" Wu Qingyu said excitedly.
"Ah, isn't that inappropriate? I'm not your boyfriend!" Chen Erzhu immediately teased.
Wu Qingyu's face turned red, and she shyly said, "Well, if you try hard, it's not impossible. You saved my life, and I'll never forget it!"
Seeing her shy demeanor, Chen Erzhu thought she was so beautiful. Her girlish charm was incredibly captivating.
Unable to resist, he reached out and held Wu Qingyu's soft hand, feeling its incredible softness, and excitedly asked, "So, does that mean you agree to be my girlfriend?"
