Chapter 152 The temple keeper appeared! My cancer is cured, and my wish is increased by 2!

Her wish.

For an ordinary person, it was something that might not be solved even after exhausting their family fortune, leading to despair.

But for Lu Xian.

It was a small problem.

"I'm heading out today," he said to the viewers in the livestream room.

Shortly after, he caught up with the Old Woman.

"Are you alone?" Lu Xian asked with a soft smile as he approached.

"Oh? Why did you come down too?" The Old Woman, hunched over, turned her head to look up at him and smiled, "I still have children and grandchildren."

Lu Xian nodded, "Why didn't they come with you?"

At the mention of this.

The Old Woman's weathered, weary, and wrinkled face sighed.

Her cloudy eyes dimmed slightly as she gave a bitter smile:

"My sons are unfilial, and my only good grandson has fallen ill."

"The old man went out to pick up scrap to help support the family."

Hearing this, the viewers in the livestream room seemed to understand.

They began to discuss:

[Oh, I get it, this is a tragic story.]

[Misfortune always finds the most vulnerable, and bad luck always targets the miserable.]

[Coming up to burn incense, could it be to pray for her grandson?]

[Several sons? There should be more than just one daughter-in-law and grandson, right?]

...

Lu Xian glanced at the chat; the actual situation was much like what they had guessed.

After all, such things were far too common in reality.

It really did fulfill the saying, "Misfortune always targets the miserable."

"What illness does your grandson have?"

Lu Xian asked, following up on her words.

Even though he already knew.

"My poor grandson is only 21 this year. He was abandoned by his parents when he was little and has been living with us two old folks."

"He's usually a sensible child, helping around the house and doing odd jobs for others to earn some pocket money to help out."

"But..."

Speaking of this, she couldn't help but tear up, sighing as she sat on the stone steps of the mountain.

"Just half a month ago, he suddenly fainted. We went to the hospital and found out it was late-stage liver cancer!"

"My poor grandson..."

Hearing this.

The viewers in the livestream room suddenly understood.

So it was cancer?

However, for the world Lu Xian and the others lived in, this was treatable.

But for this Survival World, it was likely not.

Judging by her desperate expression, it was clear that the medical technology of this world could not meet the standard to cure cancer.

And at this moment.

Lu Xian comforted her, "Maybe it's a misdiagnosis?"

"It's not like such cases don't happen in hospitals."

Hearing Lu Xian's words.

She lifted her head, a glimmer of hope rising in her eyes.

A misdiagnosis?

How she wished it were a misdiagnosis, but with the hospital's high-tech equipment, it was all there in black and white.

"As it happens, I know some medical skills."

"If you trust me, will you take me to see his condition?"

Lu Xian added, "For the sake of the Divine Lord?"

The medical skills were fake, but the fake divine power was real.

Furthermore, he had healing items, perhaps they could be used too?

"Alright, then I will trouble you." The Old Woman looked at him.

He was a kind and handsome young man, someone who looked like a good person at first glance.

Plus, he was a temple keeper, always with the Divine Lord, exuding an air of righteousness!

"You're welcome."

Lu Xian smiled.

He then headed down the mountain.

However, the Old Woman was elderly and had limited mobility; it took a full hour to walk down the mountain.

She must have spent two or three hours coming up, right?

No wonder she arrived so late.

The viewers in the livestream room also sent messages in the chat, asking him:

[Brother Lu, what are you doing?]

[I feel like this has to do with the wish?!]

[Hey, hey, open the delivery, big brother!]

[Don't make noise, watch the livestream quietly.]

...

Down the mountain was a village.

The roads were clear and paved with cement.

Looking around, there were two or three-story small villas.

Seeing the small details, could it be that the living standard of ordinary people in this world was somewhat well-off?

However, the looks and expressions of some villagers on the road when they looked at this Old Woman seemed a bit off.

It looked very much like disdain and mockery.

Lu Lin followed the Old Woman to a bungalow; there was no cement courtyard, no fence, and in front of it was a plot of farmland.

When he stepped inside, he saw a thin, frail young man with a slightly purplish-black, haggard complexion, struggling to draw water from a well, washing rice to cook.

"Xiao Fu, why did you get up?" The Old Woman exclaimed as soon as she saw him.

The young man, called Xiao Fu, turned to look, seeing his grandmother and a strange, extraordinary-looking young man.

With pale and cracked lips, he smiled, "I felt a bit better today, so I came out to move around a bit."

The Old Woman went up to him and scolded, "Go back and rest properly! I'll make the meal."

"Grandma, I'm fine." Xiao Fu showed a helpless expression.

Then he changed the subject, "Grandma, who is this...?"

"Him? He is the... gentleman, the temple keeper on the mountain. It's said he knows some medical skills. He said your cancer might be a misdiagnosis," the Old Woman introduced.

A temple keeper? He believed that.

But a doctor? He didn't look like one.

And a misdiagnosis?

Looking at his condition, it was impossible for there to be a misdiagnosis.

"Hello," Lu Xian greeted.

"Hello... Temple Keeper? But I don't think my illness could be a misdiagnosis."

"My family has no money to hire a doctor anyway."

Xiao Fu clearly didn't believe him.

"I don't want money, I'll just take a look."

Lu Xian smiled, looking at this 'wish'.

His fake divine power should be able to solve it, right?

Xiao Fu raised his eyebrows, not quite understanding the intention of this temple keeper who was around his age.

Suddenly.

Xiao Fu felt a sharp pain throughout his body, his vision went black, and he instantly lost consciousness.

His body swayed.

The moment he was about to fall, he was supported by a hand.

"Xiao Fu?! Xiao Fu, what's wrong?"

The Old Woman saw this scene, but after seeing her grandson supported by Lu Lin, she breathed a sigh of relief.

However, she was still worried.

"Let me check his condition," Lu Xian said.

He reached out to take his pulse, making a gesture of feeling the pulse.

In reality, he didn't know any sophisticated medical skills.

He only used a trace of divine power, which surged into the body of the young man named Xiao Fu.

At the same time, Lu Xian 'saw' the 'black filth' inside his body.

The divine power gave him feedback that it could clean it.

Immediately, the divine power swept through his body, quickly clearing and removing the black filth.

In the blink of an eye, it was completely wiped clean.

As Lu Lin withdrew his hand, he pulled back his divine power.

The young man's complexion gradually regained its color, turning rosy.

It was no longer purplish-black.

"Temple Keeper, Xiao Fu, he..." the Old Woman said worriedly.

"It's nothing, he's just malnourished from not getting enough nutrition, he fainted from hunger."

"He'll wake up soon," Lu Xian shook his head.

Hearing this.

The viewers in the livestream room burst into laughter.

What the hell, "not enough nutrition."

That guy had a dark forehead and looked like he was about to die of illness, yet in his words, it turned into malnutrition??

Just as the Old Woman was starting to doubt him.

The Xiao Fu she spoke of actually woke up?

Was this temple keeper's words that effective?

When she looked at Xiao Fu's face, the expression on her old face was quite colorful.

Her grandson's complexion had actually improved!

It was miraculous!

"Huh? What happened?"

Xiao Fu looked confused.

But he felt that his body was so comfortable at this moment, unprecedentedly relaxed.

"Xiao Fu, your complexion looks better, hurry up and thank the Temple Keeper!" The Old Woman hurriedly pulled her bewildered grandson to kneel before Lu Xian.

At this moment.

Lu Xian received the notification that the wish was completed.

He smiled, waved his hand, and turned to leave.

"Grandma, why do you trust him so easily?!" Xiao Fu looked anxious, feeling that his grandmother had been deceived.

"Go back and look in the mirror; this Temple Keeper is truly divine. He said you were fine, and you are fine."

"Truly, the Divine Lord blesses us!"

Looking at his superstitious grandmother, Xiao Fu was confused.

It wasn't long before he discovered that his complexion had really regained its color.

Furthermore, his body had regained its strength, and he was no longer physically weak.

He gritted his teeth, borrowed some money from a friend, and went to the hospital for a check-up.

After the results came out, Xiao Fu was stunned.

No cancer!

Soon, he took the results home and happily told his family.

Within two days.

News of the Temple Keeper on the mountain manifesting spread throughout the village.
