C20 Snake Venom

However, he didn't feel it. He only felt as if his ankle had been cut by something. He felt an intense pain. He frowned, but didn't care.

They hastily used the vines and plants to block the entrance of the cave, then ignited it. The entire cave entrance was instantly covered in fire, and the snakes also fled in fear. For the time being, they were no longer in danger.

In order to not end up with a fire, the two cleaned up the surrounding grass and trees and waited for the fire to die down. Only then did they relax.

"Alright, let's hurry up and leave. Lighten your pace a little." He wiped off his sweat as he put away his sickle, then left the cave with Zhang Chunxiao.

Zhang Chunxiao picked up a thick wooden stick and twined some dead leaves around the tip of the stick. Then, she borrowed some phosphorescent fire to set the dead grass on fire. Although the smell was strong and the fire would not burn, there was still some illumination effect. If they really met a wild beast, this torch would be able to resist them.

The man made a torch just like Zhang Chunxiao. The two of them held the torch and looked for a place to hide in the forest.

Not long after, the man's legs felt as if they were filled with lead as they gradually landed behind Zhang Chunxiao.

"What's the matter with you?" Sensing that the footsteps beside her were becoming more and more sparse, Zhang Chunxiao quickly turned around to look. He frowned, beads of sweat forming on his forehead as he staggered forward with great difficulty. He bent down slowly and put his right hand on his ankle, looking very miserable.

"What's wrong with you? Hey! It's okay, right? " Zhang Chunxiao hurried over, and by the light of the torch, she saw the two small, jet-black mouths on his ankles.

She suddenly thought back to what just happened and her body couldn't help but tremble. This was clearly a bite from a snake, and she had no way to confirm just how terrifying the poison was.

"You … You have been bitten by a snake! " Zhang Chunxiao tensed up. There wasn't even a place to rest in the wilderness, and wild beasts could attack from time to time. She definitely couldn't handle a strong man by herself.

She did not care about the rest, and only ripped off her sleeve and tore it into strips of cloth, tying his knees and calves to prevent the poison from spreading again. After doing all of this, her mind was blank. Suddenly, she felt cold all over. She was so nervous that cold sweat began to form all over her body.

How was she dealt with when she was bitten by a snake? She suddenly recalled that there were no doctors here, no hospitals, and even no medicines. What would she do if she were to be infected a second time? What if the poison poisoned him? What would she do without him?

"It's okay. If I die, cut off my flesh. If you meet any wild beasts, throw them out. They will naturally die from the poison if they eat my meat." The man saw her anxiety and forced a smile as he jokingly said to her.

"What nonsense are you spouting!?" "You won't die!" Zhang Chunxiao yelled angrily. She was already nervous enough to not want to listen to meaningless jokes, not to mention these kind of dejected words that made her feel even more depressed.

As if he had felt her anger, that person also became silent. After a long time, he opened his mouth and said with difficulty, "Sorry, I said the wrong thing."

Zhang Chunxiao also felt that she was losing control of her emotions. She sighed helplessly and changed the topic to think for the current them, "Can you still move? You can't stay here all night. "

If something really happened to them, Zhang Chunxiao alone might not be their match.

"Not bad, I can barely walk." He gritted his teeth as he stood up with the support of Zhang Chunxiao.

"Slow down, I'm afraid the poison will dissipate too quickly." Zhang Chunxiao said with a tight tone, her brows could not be calmed down. She knew that if he frequently activated the poison, it would dissipate faster, but she couldn't let him stay outside. If she could find a place to stay as soon as possible, then at least she wouldn't have to worry about her safety.

If he couldn't even guarantee his own safety, how could he treat him?

The two of them carried each other in the dark forest, looking for a place to stay. He searched for a long time, but didn't find a place to rest. On the contrary, the man seemed to be in more and more pain. In the end, he even struggled to move.

"How are you? You can't sleep! If you can't leave, I'll carry you on my back. Seeing that the man's breathing had become weaker, she quickly put him on the ground and shook him to clear his mind.

She didn't know why, but she suddenly had no more ideas. All the first aid methods she had learned in her previous life had been thrown to the back of her mind. She also knew that she could not use any methods, but the people of this era might not be able to accept this.

"I'm fine. Where am I? Let me take a look... "Look at the road …" He forced himself to smile a comforting smile, but the beads of sweat on his forehead only grew denser as they trickled down the contours of his face to his lower jaw.

Zhang Chunxiao replied and lit up the torch a bit. Using the light from the torch to illuminate the area, he pointed at the left branch of the fork in front of him and said to Zhang Chunxiao, "There … "We're heading that way, there seems to be a mountain …"

Before he could finish his words, he suddenly stopped moving and his hands abruptly drooped down.

Zhang Chunxiao jumped in fright as she tried to check his breath and pulse. Luckily, they hadn't completely disappeared, but they were very weak. After confirming that he was still alive, Zhang Chunxiao was under increasing pressure.

She wasn't sure that he would be able to make the right judgement when he was close to losing consciousness, much less be sure that his memory was accurate. They had already taken a long detour, and this time, Zhang Chunxiao doubted his judgement.

Moreover, it was getting darker inside the forest. Zhang Chunxiao's little flame seemed to have been devoured, becoming very weak. He was like a man struggling in the forest, with no one to rely on and facing danger at any time.

She suddenly felt that the surroundings were exceptionally quiet, so quiet that it was terrifying. Even the sound of her heartbeat and her breathing seemed to cause a burst of panic in the forest.

But there was no other way. Zhang Chunxiao gritted her teeth and decided to take a gamble.

She helped the man to his feet, put his arm around her shoulders, and one of them, holding the torch, took him by the waist and led him with difficulty to the fork in the road he had spoken of.
