Chapter 297 Wild Fruits



"Wow, Lin Tian is so incredible."

A group of women watched as Lin Tian climbed the tree like a monkey, easily reaching a high point.

However, the hardest part was yet to come.

Lin Tian was standing on a tree branch at this point, and the wild fruits were at the tips of the branches. If he wanted to collect the fruit, he had to continue stepping on the branches to go higher. But these branches were quite thin and would have difficulty supporting a person's weight.

"Lin Tian, if it's too difficult, you should come down. Safety first."

Shen Mengyi was somewhat worried; she was essentially in charge of this activity. If something were to happen, she would not be able to shirk responsibility.

"Lin Tian, you're the best!"

Contrary to Shen Mengyi, Bu Mengting shouted a cheer of encouragement.

Bu Mengting had spent quite a bit of time with Lin Tian, and Lin Tian always seemed to create miracles. He wouldn't do something if he wasn't sure of it.

Lin Tian gave a slight smile to the people below, revealing a sunshine-like grin.

Then, he stepped forward cautiously, much to the surprise of those below; the branches didn't even bend under Lin Tian's weight.

Of course, this was because Lin Tian used the Flying Technique. In fact, Lin Tian could've directly stepped on the fruit, but that would have been too shocking.

After easily picking a dozen fruits, Lin Tian climbed down.

"Lin Tian, have you practiced Qinggong? How did those thin branches not bend when you stepped on them?"

Shen Yiran rushed over and asked with a look of admiration.

"That's right, it's Qinggong."

Lin Tian was, of course, happy to play dumb—a delightful misunderstanding.

However, this led to some trouble as well.

"Lin Tian, I want to learn Qinggong too. Let me be your apprentice, will you teach me please?"

Lin Tian was immediately stumped by Shen Yiran's words. What he had used just now was not any Qinggong, but the Flying Technique, which he exchanged from the Supernatural Ability System. Definitely not Qinggong.

How could he possibly teach Shen Yiran Qinggong?

"Ahem, this skill must be learned from a young age, your body is already fully grown, so it's impossible for you to learn now. There are still plenty of fruits on the tree, I'll go and pick them."

Lin Tian made an excuse and quickly climbed back up the tree.

After a few back and forth trips, all the fruits on the tree had been collected.

Lin Tian intentionally left a few large ones with a deep color behind.

Counting them, there were exactly four. Lin Tian gave one to Bu Mengting, one to Shen Mengyi, and one was snatched away by Shen Yiran. The last one he ate himself.

"What are these fruits called? They taste sour and sweet, kind of like plums."

"Who knows? They're wild fruits from the mountains; I've never seen them before."

"Who cares? As long as they're delicious."

"Save some to take back; we need to count the points later." Shen Mengyi noticed that everyone was enjoying them a bit too much and gave a reminder.

"Why the rush? There's still plenty of time. Let's eat more to gain energy. Maybe we'll find even better food later."

Lin Tian felt that they could enjoy the fruits now to replenish their energy.

Today, until the evening, they could only eat the food they found themselves.

This wilderness survival activity was a bit artificial due to the presence of a props team. But during the day, in accordance with the live streaming platform's requirements, they still had to eat the food they found themselves as much as possible.

Having walked such a long distance, everyone was also a bit thirsty. Around fifty or sixty fruits picked from the tree were all shared and finished by the group.

"It seems we've had a good start. Are you all rested? Let's continue!"

The Dream Girl Squad's direction was still the one Lin Tian had previously chosen.

The fifty or sixty wild fruits also sufficiently proved the effectiveness of Lin Tian's divination; moving in this direction was bound to yield rewards.

"Did you guys hear something?"

After walking a few hundred meters further, Liu Fangfang suddenly called out.

Everyone listened carefully and indeed heard the sound of trickling water.

"It sounds like flowing water. Could there be a stream ahead?"

Where there is a water source, it usually means more food.

This is also why the Fishing Team and Lin Tao had directly headed for the lake.

However, compared to a lake, a mountain stream is better suited for college students seeking food.

The lake is too large, with many fish, but they are hard to catch. The stream has fewer fish, but they are easier to catch.

"Hurry up, everyone, there might be a stream ahead. Whether we can have fish for dinner tonight depends on this."

Shen Mengyi took the lead, cheering everyone on.

Under the guidance of Shen Mengyi, the Dream Girl Squad quickened their pace and soon found a stream.

"Wow, look, there are really fish. Let's go catch them!"

A few girls saw the fish in the river and immediately took off their shoes and socks to rush in and catch them.

The water in the stream wasn't deep; standing in it would probably just come up over their ankles.

"Come on, let's go catch some fish too."

Bu Mengting became interested as well and pulled Lin Tian into the water.

Guo Rong, the foodie, at this moment, was quite clever; he pretended to be all dazed and silly and sidled up to the quiet Bai Ruolan.

"Ah, the fish swim away so fast; how can we catch them like this?"

Shen Yiran had already tried twice and both times, the fish had slipped away. Frustrated, she stomped in the water a few times.

It was Shen Mengyi, however, who remained completely focused on a fish just a step in front of her.

"This time, see where you can run!"

Suddenly, Shen Mengyi made her move. The fish seemed not to react in time, Shen Mengyi's hands had already entered the water, but it hadn't started to flee yet.

Just when Shen Mengyi thought she had caught the fish, the fish's tail slapped the water, and like an arrow released from a bow, it swiftly swam away.

The speed of that fish was too fast.

"Wow! Lin Tian, you're amazing!"

Just after several of the girls had failed in their attempts, a crisp and pleasant voice rang out.

Bu Mengting was grinning from ear to ear, holding a fish that wouldn't stop thrashing its tail. The fish was about as wide as a palm and over twenty centimeters long, so it was not a small fish anymore.

This was the fish Lin Tian had just caught!

"Mengting, take the fish to the shore and find a bag to put it in."

"Okay."

Bu Mengting carefully brought the fish to the shore, and all the girls were envious.

"Lin Tian, come here. Help me catch one too!"

Shen Yiran stood with her hands on her hips, full of command, and yelled at Lin Tian.

Lin Tian suddenly thrust his hand into the water and then pulled out a fish that was slightly smaller than the one before.

"Come here, I've caught another one."

The stream wasn't deep, and with the boost of the Ox Power Technique, Lin Tian's reflexes and speed of action were very fast. Any fish daring to lurk near Lin Tian were bound to be caught.

Shen Yiran ran over happily, contentedly holding the fish as she got ashore.

Soon enough, with Lin Tian's help, each of the girls managed to catch three or four fish each. The haul of ingredients they now had was quite respectable.

"With so many fish, our Dream Girls Team is bound to be the champions tonight."

Shen Yiran said with pride on her face as if she was the one who caught all the fish.

"Hey, sister, why aren't you coming up yet?"

"I haven't caught any fish yet."

"Why don't you let Lin Tian help you catch one!"

"No, today I have to catch a fish myself."

Shen Mengyi's stubbornness kicked in; she was the type who had to do well in anything she undertook.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to become president of the Broadcasting Club in her sophomore year, a position usually held by juniors.

Lin Tian had already caught a fish and was about to call Shen Mengyi over. Upon hearing her words, he simply loosened his grip, allowing the fish to swim away.

"Ah!"

Suddenly, Shen Mengyi screamed, then plunged straight into the stream.

The incident happened so suddenly that Lin Tian didn't have time to react, and they were quite far apart.

He rushed over immediately and picked Shen Mengyi up.

At that moment, Shen Mengyi's complexion was pale, and her lips were turning purple, it seemed that she had been poisoned.

"A snake, there's a snake!"

Shen Mengyi's consciousness was a bit blurry by then, indicating the snake's venom was not mild.

Lin Tian quickly brought Shen Mengyi to the shore, placing her on the grass by the waterside.

Only then did he notice two distinct puncture wounds on Shen Mengyi's left ankle.

"Mengyi has been bitten by a snake, who can help her suck out the poison?"

The snake venom was potent; if it wasn't sucked out quickly, Shen Mengyi's life would be in danger.

But when the other girls heard Shen Mengyi was poisoned, all their faces turned pale with fear.

"Lin Tian, will the person sucking out the poison get poisoned too?"

Bu Mengting wanted to help, but was afraid of being poisoned herself, so she hesitated.

Lin Tian thought that was indeed a possibility.

"Forget it, I'll do it."

He positioned Shen Mengyi's body, then grabbed her left foot. Shen Mengyi's foot was small and exquisite, with delicate white toes and nails painted a gemstone-like pink.

In ancient times, a beautiful woman's foot was referred to as a 'jade foot', and Lin Tian thought Shen Mengyi's foot qualified. It appeared smooth and translucent, gleaming with a jade-like luster.

The only flaw was the two puncture wounds on the ankle, which were turning slightly black.

There was no more time to waste; he had to suck out the poison.

Lin Tian bent down, bringing his mouth close to Shen Mengyi's ankle.

He opened his mouth and gave a fierce suck; a fishy-tasting blood entered his mouth.

Lin Tian's tongue tingled slightly, which meant the venom was indeed present.

He was very careful, controlling the poisoned blood before tilting his head to spit it out.

The blood he spat out was black, clearly indicating strong toxicity. Lin Tian sucked repeatedly, mouthful by mouthful. After about thirty times, when the blood he drew became fresh and red, he stopped.

"Ah, Lin Tian, what, what are you doing?"

With the poison sucked out, Shen Mengyi was out of danger. She opened her eyes and saw Lin Tian holding her foot, his mouth still pressed to her ankle.

This pervert, did he have a foot fetish? But with so many people watching, to do this seemed a bit excessive. Shouldn't an acolyte of such pleasures seek privacy?

Shen Mengyi quickly withdrew her foot, watching Lin Tian with a wary expression.

"I was saving your life!"

Lin Tian appeared quite aggrieved.
