Entering the canyon was difficult, and so was exiting it. Di Jiu was very sure that if he had not been inside the aircraft while he had passed through that strange rift, he would have suffered the same fate as his previous incarnation.

Although he was navigating the thorny vines carefully, he still cut himself numerous times. Even though he had a stone that could stop the bleeding, he was still covered in injuries after walking for half a day.

He had to stop from time to time, so it took him two full days to climb out of the canyon. However, he was still unsure about the direction in which he should be heading.

Thanks to the golden ray of light, his eyesight had experienced immense improvement. He looked around, but his surroundings remained misty.

He did not know how his previous incarnation had managed to enter this place or why he had been there. Perhaps he had gone to look for the Red Xue Flower.

Di Jiu chose a direction at random and proceeded to walk for almost a day before he finally stopped by the side of a lake.

He had been wandering around for three days, eating only his dry rations and some wild fruit. If it had not been for the bottle of water he had stored inside the aircraft, he would not have had any water to drink.

Now that he had reached a lake, he naturally wanted to restore his strength. He wanted to at least catch some fish or wild animals to roast for his next meal.

Two hours later, Di Jiu caught two foot-long black fish.

He cleaned and roasted them both. Even without salt, the fish were still delicious. Di Jiu finished the two fish in little more than 10 minutes.

As soon as he did, his strength was restored. This could in no way be compared to eating dry rations.

Di Jiu rested by the lakeside for nearly an hour. During this time, he filled up both his bottles with water. He wanted to find a good place to rest, as he had not rested properly for the past two days. Before he could, he suddenly heard an indistinct sobbing sound.

Was someone there? Di Jiu stood up suddenly, his dagger already clasped in his hand. All around him were mountains and forests. This was actually a mountain range filled with primeval forests. He had not seen a single person despite walking in the area for three days. This had to be an uninhabited land. Why would there be such a sobbing sound there? Besides, it was already evening.

A few minutes later, the sobbing sound was heard once again. Di Jiu heard it clearly this time. He was certain that someone was sobbing, but the sound seemed to be quite a distance away. He was only able to hear it due to his excellent hearing.

Di Jiu quickly picked up his backpack and walked towards the sobbing sound. He stopped after 10 minutes of walking.

There were two human girls in front of him. One of them, who was dressed in a light red top, was sobbing softly with her back turned to him. The other girl was lying down. Something seemed to be wrong with her.

Do you need help? Di Jius words were no longer in the language of the Ji Nation. Although they were not very clear, he did not stutter.

Ah The girl turned around suddenly and lay prone on the ground, looking at Di Jiu in horror.

Di Jiu realized right away that the girl was scared. Im just taking a walk here, he said fast. Theres no need to be afraid of me.

The girl calmed down after a while. Perhaps it was Di Jius words that made the fear in her eyes subside. Are you really human? she asked uncertainly.

The girls face was slightly round and she had an enduring beauty about her.

Di Jius hair was a mess, and his clothes were ragged. Blood stains covered all the exposed parts of his body. It was hard for him to not be mistaken for a savage when he was dressed like this while he wandered around the Wang Chuan mountain range.

Di Jiu looked at the girl speechlessly before he said, My clothes might be ragged and my hair might be a little unkempt, but you should not be scared of me. I think its best that you get up and let me take a look at the girl.

No, no The girl in the light red top quickly shook her hands. Now that she had come to her senses, she was certain that Di Jiu was not a dangerous savage. She suddenly remembered her companion and stood up quickly. Yu Mu has been bitten by a snake, she said anxiously. There is no anti-venom serum around to save her

When the girl in red moved aside, Di Jiu had a good look at the girl who had been bitten.

The girl was wearing a loose purple top. Her jeans were ripped in several places, her face was pale, and her lips were parched and blue. She was lying unconscious on the ground.

Even so, Di Jiu could tell that she was a very pretty girl. He bent over and took a look at her eyes.

Can Little Mu be saved, Brother? the girl in the red top asked anxiously when she saw Di Jiu bend over to check. Her eyes were filled with horror and uneasiness.

Yes, she can. Di Jiu nodded. The girl in the purple top was deeply poisoned. Based on his previous incarnations memories, she had to be taken to a hospital at this stage. If she was not, she would most certainly die. However, this was not a problem for him.

No one in the Ji Nation could beat Di Jius medical skills. If he had not been looking for a formula to trigger his martial roots, he could have practised medicine and become a famous doctor.

The pant on the victims left leg had been rolled up. There was a purplish wound there, where the snake had bitten her. From the looks of it, the poisonous blood had been squeezed out of the wound once.

Di Jiu sliced the wound open with his dagger and squeezed some black blood out of it with his hands. Then, he took some medicine out of his backpack and chewed it to bits before placing it on the wound.

Di Jiu took out some golden needles and placed them into several acupuncture points on the girls body.

In less than five minutes, Di Jiu put away the dagger and the golden needles and said, She is alright now. She will wake up in a few minutes.

Ah The round-faced girl looked at Di Jiu in disbelief. She hesitated before she said, But, Brother It looks like the poisonous blood outside the wound has not been fully cleaned yet.

She had seen with her own eyes that Di Jiu had not cleaned away the poisonous blood completely when he had applied the medicine.

It does not matter. I have already done enough to guide the poisonous blood to the herbs that I applied to her wound

Fang Xue Before Di Jiu could finish his sentence, the girl in the purple top woke up. After calling Fang Xues name, she turned and looked at Di Jiu, who looked like a savage. The girl choked on her words immediately. If she had not seen Fang Xue before Di Jiu, she would probably have screamed just like her friend.

You are really alright, Yu Mu. Thats great Fang Xue looked pleasantly surprised. Before she could finish her words, she suddenly recalled that it was Di Jiu who had saved Yu Mu. Yu Mu, it was this man who saved you.

Di Jiu, who sensed the worry in her eyes, quickly explained, I was traveling in the area, but I got lost. Thats why I am in this pitiful state.

When she heard that Di Jiu was a tourist, Yu Mu relaxed and struggled to a sitting position. Thank you for saving my life. I got bitten by a venomous snake. I would have died if it wasnt for you. Your medical skills are truly remarkable.

Yu Mu, who had studied medicine, knew what venom she had been contaminated with better than anyone else, so she had believed that she was facing certain doom. She had never expected to be saved in such a place. The man who had saved her had to have remarkable medical skills.

Di Jiu waved his hand indifferently. I just saw some people do the same and learned from them. My medical skills are not worth mentioning. By the way, would you happen to have a map that leads out of here?

He had a map in his backpack, but he had no idea how to read it.
