Seeing this, the others also got up from the ground and walked towards the escorts with their hands raised like zombies.

The guards had never seen such a scene before, and they retreated with disgust, driving the men away as they went.

"Go away, don't come any closer."

Unable to find any evidence against the bandits, Chen Xiang could only sigh and accept the current situation, rubbing his aching arm and waving his hand.

"Let's go back."

Seeing that she had successfully gotten away with it, Old Lady Zhu suppressed her joy, turned to look at her son and daughter-in-law, and pulled Pei Sining to follow behind the escort.

Pei Sining was once again amazed by the wisdom of the Zhu family, and he gave Old Madam Zhu a thumbs up with an expression of admiration.

"Grandma Zhu, you guys are incredibly lucky! How come you always seem to have all the good things happen to you?"

"That's right, this is called good fortune coming soon. You'll understand when you have a daughter."

When this was mentioned, Grandma Zhu's face beamed with pride as she looked happily at her granddaughter in Liu's arms.

She couldn't reveal that her granddaughter was a deity descended from heaven, otherwise her granddaughter would be fought over by various forces.

Pei Sining seemed to understand what Old Lady Zhu meant, and turned to look at Zhu Xixi, who was blowing bubbles, with some doubt.

Is there really such a thing as a lucky star in the world?

After noticing Pei Sining's suspicious gaze, Zhu Xixi happily waved to greet him.

Xi Xi's adorable appearance made Pei Sining's heart skip a beat. She turned her head away shyly and closed her eyes awkwardly.

so cute!

The Zhu family quietly followed the escort through the bushes, but Chen Xiang, who was walking in front, gradually slowed down. Before he could even ask for help, he suddenly went limp and collapsed to the ground.

Zhu Wen happened to be nearby when Chen Xiang collapsed. He quickly helped him up and cried out anxiously, "Sir, sir, what's wrong?"

After Chen Xiang fell, the team stopped, and all the guards surrounded him.

Grandma Zhu looked up curiously ahead, then looked at Zhu Haotian with a puzzled expression. "Second son, go and see what's going on?"

Upon seeing this, Zhu Haotian ran towards the escorts and stood beside Zhu Wen, asking, "Lord Zhu, what happened to Lord Chen?"

"I don't know! He just suddenly fainted." Zhu Wen was also unsure what happened to Chen Xiang, anxiously touching his forehead. "He's burning up!"

The more Zhu Haotian looked at Chen Xiang's face, the more he felt something was wrong. He quickly squatted down and curiously examined his body. Sure enough, he saw a small tooth mark at the foot of Chen Xiang's feet.

"Has Lord Chen been bitten by a snake?"

Zhu Wen suddenly remembered that when they were fleeing from the python, Chen Xiang had indeed fought with the python to save him.

"Yes, he must have been bitten by a snake when he was rescuing me."

"What kind of snake was that? Do you know?"

When Zhu Haotian examined Chen Xiang's wound, he found that the area around the wound had turned purple, indicating a very bad situation.

Zhu Wen pondered for a moment and then quickly explained, "A large snake covered in spots."

"It's a spotted snake, and this kind of snake is venomous." Zhu Haotian's expression changed drastically upon hearing this, and cold sweat instantly broke out on his feet. "This kind of snake is highly venomous. If we don't get the antidote tonight, Lord Chen might..."

Zhu Haotian dared not say what came next, as he knew that such words would cause him trouble.

Zhu Wen hadn't expected Chen Xiang to encounter this situation. He looked at the escort beside him, at a loss, and handed Chen Xiang over to the escort.

He swiftly drew his broadsword and placed it against Zhu Haotian's neck, sternly warning, "Find a way to save him. If he dies, none of your Zhu family members will escape."

When Old Mrs. Zhu saw that her son was being held at knifepoint by Zhu Wen, she rushed forward and grabbed Zhu Wen's hand to explain.

"Lord Zhu, he is not a doctor, how can he save Lord Chen?"

“Isn’t he your wife? Since you can pick herbs to sell for money, you must know which herbs can save people. I’ll give you one night. If you can’t find the herbs to save Lord Chen, you will all be buried with him.”

Zhu Wen glared at Old Lady Zhu with a fierce expression, forcefully shook off her hand, and slowly withdrew the large knife from his hand. "Brothers, take them to find herbs."

Upon seeing this, the guards immediately drew their broadswords and surrounded Old Lady Zhu and her companions, pointing at the tips of their blades to question Old Lady Zhu's intentions.

To keep the officials in line, Old Lady Zhu turned around and gestured for her son and daughter-in-law to leave the bushes.

As they left the bushes, Zhu Chenfeng pulled Sun Shi to his side and asked her in a low voice.

"Madam, do you know any herbs that can be used to treat snake venom?"

After a moment's hesitation, Sun stammered, "There are several herbs that can detoxify, but the venom of this spotted snake is highly toxic. I don't know if these herbs will work."

"We can't worry about whether it will work or not right now. Let's find the herbs first." After hearing her daughter-in-law's reply, Old Lady Zhu turned her head and whispered instructions. At this moment, they had to seize any opportunity, no matter how small.

Sun nodded with a worried expression, took out a small notebook hidden in her bosom, and stepped forward to point to the herbs listed in it.

"Currently, the antidotes for snake venom are Oldenlandia diffusa, Lobelia chinensis, and Paris polyphylla."

Grandma Zhu took the notebook, took out a tinderbox, looked at it carefully, and then handed it to Zhu Chenfeng.

"Take a look at them all, and pick the ones that are similar."

Zhu Chenfeng took the notebook, quickly wrote it down, handed it to Zhu Haotian, and turned to walk away.

When Xixi heard that her family members had encountered danger because of her recklessness, she immediately frowned in alarm.

Oh no! We've gone too far. We thought we were just punishing the guards, but we've dragged our families into this mess.

I wonder if my second aunt knew that snake gall could save lives.

[Go to sleep quickly, help catch the snake.]

To get Liu's attention, Xixi waved her little hands while babbling.

As Liu listened to her daughter's murmurs, she lowered her head and pressed her cheek against her daughter's.

"Sweetie, are you sleepy?"

Under her mother's gentle coaxing, Xixi gradually drifted off to sleep. After her daughter fell asleep,

She hurriedly went up to Zhu Haotian and whispered a reminder, "Second brother, I heard that the best way to cure snake venom is to use snake gall as a medicinal guide. Since Lord Chen has been poisoned by the venom of the spotted snake, shouldn't we use the gall of the spotted snake as a medicinal guide?"

“Yes, I think I’ve heard that before.” With his sister-in-law’s prompting, Zhu Haotian suddenly remembered that he had also heard someone mention that if you were poisoned by snake venom, you should use the gall bladder of the poisoned snake as a medicinal ingredient.

“In that case, let’s split up. I’ll go find the spotted snake, and you two go find the herbs.”

Lady Liu had this idea, but she was worried that her second brother might encounter danger if he searched alone.

"It's too dangerous for you to go alone. Why don't you call your third brother along? We'll take care of finding the herbs."
