If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he would have thought it was fake.

However, he knew that this was true. Before the show, the production team had learned about this old monk from Lu Qiuran. From what Lu Qiuran said, Lu Qingjin was just an ordinary old monk. He was not very capable, but he put on airs.

However, now that he saw it, Zhang Pan felt that Lu Qiuran did not know her adoptive father very well.

Jiang Tongtong closed her eyes in comfort. When Wu Ju stopped, she opened her eyes and thanked him in surprise. “Thank you, Master Lu. I feel better.”

Initially, it was a little strenuous for her to climb the mountain and enter the forest. She was so tired that she could not breathe. Her heart was palpitating and she felt suffocated. She had long wanted to rest, but Wu Ju did not stop. She did not want to ask. She did not want Wu Ju to think that she was weak.

Wu Ju looked at Jiang Tongtong. “When you feel exhausted, remember to tell me so that we can stop to rest for a while.”

Jiang Tongtong was seriously ill. Sometimes, she would come out of her turtle shell to be brave, but most of the time, she was hiding in the shell and wouldn’t ask for help.

Jiang Tongtong nodded.

Wu Ju looked up at the sky. “It’s only ten o’clock. 1 think they’re going to town today and won’t be back for lunch. I brought a few cooked sweet potatoes. Let’s go to the other side of the mountain. There are the herbs I need.”

As Wu Ju spoke, he carried the basket and stood up.

Jiang Tongtong followed.

Zhang Pan carried the camera and continued to follow.

At twelve o’clock, the three of them arrived at the foot of a mountain. Wu Ju took out the sweet potatoes and distributed them. Wu Ju stood up and walked to a cluster of thorny pitcher plants not far away. There were small red spots on them. Wu Ju picked them.

He came back and extended his hand. “In this season, there are many wild fruits in the mountains and by the roadside. This is called raspberry. It’s sour and sweet.”

Jiang Tong had never eaten such wild fruits before. They looked a little like bayberries, but the size was not as small as bayberries. They were sour and sweet and could make people drool. This way, they would not be thirsty.

“Ah…”

A scream came from afar, startling the three of them.

Zhang Pan subconsciously picked up the camera. This scream did not sound good.

Jiang Tongtong also looked at Wu Ju. Wu Ju had already stood up. He was shocked when he heard the scream. He walked quickly and said, “The villagers nearby must have fallen when they went up the mountain. It doesn’t sound far. Let’s go over and see if we can help.”

There were trees blocking the way and some thorny vines, but Wu Ju walked quickly. This time, he did not wait for Jiang Tongtong and the cameraman.

The live-streaming room was also lively. Everyone was thinking about what had happened and urging the cameraman to catch up.

Zhang Pan also heard the director’s voice in his earphone, asking him to catch up.

Zhang Pan said to Jiang Tongtong, “Jiang Tongtong, take your time. 1’11 follow Master Lu first.”

When Jiang Tongtong heard the voice, she stopped and nodded.

After passing halfway up the mountain, there were fewer trees and weeds. Wu Ju’s figure was in front, and there was a figure beside him. Zhang Pan started running. He said to the audience, “The villager must have accidentally fallen. Master Lu seems to be bandaging him. Let’s go over and take a look.”

Carrying the camera, Zhang Pan’s voice was a little out of breath. Soon, he arrived in front of them. Zhang Pan panted and said, “Master Lu, how is it? If it’s too serious, it’s best not to touch him. What if…”

This villager slipped and fell while picking wild honey. He accidentally encountered a snake and was bitten by it. Wu Ju checked the bite wound on his body and confirmed that his limbs were not broken.

Seeing that Wu Ju was about to cut open the wound and suck out the poisonous blood, Zhang Pan reminded him, “Master Lu, he was bitten by a poisonous snake.”

Wu Ju nodded and took out a small bag wrapped in a cloth. He opened it and saw silver needles and a blade inside. Then, he bent down and sucked out the poisonous blood.

It was not until the blood turned from black to bright red that he took out the silver needles and inserted them into the man’s wound.

Zhang Pan was already dumbfounded. He was shooting the entire time. Unknowingly, the number of people in the live-streaming room had increased from a dozen to more than ten thousand.

Everyone was discussing how bold Wu Ju was in saving people and how exaggerated the script was.

Some people said that Wu Ju was calm and familiar with acupuncture. He was a master.

Jiang Tongtong came for a while. She did not say anything. Whether others believed Wu Ju or not, she did. Seeing Wu Ju suck out the poisonous blood without caring about himself, Jiang Tongtong cried silently.

Wu Ju stood up. “He’s not seriously injured. He’s just poisoned by a snake. The snake’s poison is more serious. I’ve sealed his heart. Someone at the foot of the mountain should have heard it. Now, let’s carry him down the mountain. You have a phone on you. Take it out and call the ambulance. Let’s hurry over.”

Zhang Pan immediately did as he was told..
