Liu'er waved her hands: "I'm fine...hiss..." Although she said that she was fine, the sudden gasp of cold air did not look like "fine" at all.

But she gritted her teeth and forced herself to look back at the venomous snake stuck on a branch just a few steps away: "Let's get out of here quickly, otherwise if the snake escapes and bites one of us, it will not be fun."

Liu'er naturally didn't recognize the specific type of snake, but looking at its bright color, she knew it was not a good thing.

Su Qingluan also understood that this place was not a good place to rest and heal, so she hurried forward to help her, but was intercepted by Tian Xing'er: "You skinny little body, you should go explore the way! I'm here!"

As she spoke, Tian Xing'er put one arm around Liu'er's waist and used the other hand to pull Liu'er's arm, letting her lean on her shoulder. Relying on her tall stature, she lifted Liu'er up with one force.

Although Tian Xing'er and Liu'er were of similar build, with only one being taller by a head, Liu'er only had difficulty moving one leg, while the other was still functioning normally. So as long as she could move with one leg, the two of them could still move.

Seeing Liu'er gasping in pain, the little girl Su Xueyan squatted down and gently touched Liu'er's injured ankle: "Sister Liu'er, does your foot hurt a lot? Let me rub it for you and it will hurt less!"

Although they knew that this kind of "kneading" had no practical effect, Liu'er and Tian Xing'er couldn't help but look touched. Liu'er even asked Su Qingluan with envy, "Why is your sister so lovable? Mine just cries all day and all night long."

"...Maybe your sister is not even a hundred days old yet?" When they were chatting before, Liu'er said that her sister was born in June. Isn't it a bit too much to ask a baby who hasn't even grown all her teeth to be "lovable"?

A few of them exchanged a few casual banter, finally easing the tension from the snake's recent fright. However, this wasn't a place to stay for long; the "pheasant neck" was still twisting furiously, constantly irritating their already tense nerves.

Su Qingluan had no choice but to shoulder the responsibility of "exploring the way" again, "stirring up the grass" ahead and flattening the grass within her range. However, this time she was more cautious and chose a flatter route - after all, Liu'er had sprained her ankle, and choosing a terrain with a large drop would be too challenging.

For a moment, the three girls were silent. Only the little girl was still thinking about the game they had just played. "Sister, sister, please take smaller steps. I can't fit in!"

Su Xueyan's voice sounded distressed.

"..." Su Qingluan then remembered that she was still in the "game". But this was also a good thing, as it could prevent the little girl from running into the bushes out of curiosity. Whether she got bit by mosquitoes or encountered a snake, it would not be fun.

So Su Qingluan nodded: "Okay, I'll take smaller steps, you have to follow closely, don't forget, your sisters Xing'er and Liu'er are still watching from behind!"

Tian Xing'er and Liu'er naturally knew that Su Qingluan just wanted them to keep an eye on their sister and not get lost, rather than really caring about "winning or losing the game", but they looked at each other and pretended to tease Su Xueyan -

"Yes, we are watching you."

"You must follow the rules, otherwise you will lose!"

The little girl's fighting spirit was suddenly boosted by this teasing. She concentrated even more on following her sister's steps, not wanting to miss a single step.

After about two quarters of an hour, the few people finally arrived at a relatively open and flat area with low grass.

Everyone in the group had expended a lot of energy, some were breathless from exhaustion, and even Su Xueyan, who had looked so happy at the beginning, was a little listless.

"Why don't we take a break?" Liu'er looked at Tian Xing'er's sweaty forehead and felt that her arm behind her was wet. She looked at Su Xueyan'er's wilted look and suggested to Su Qingluan who was "sweeping the road" in front.

Su Qingluan happened to be a little tired, so she used branches to sweep the area around her and flattened the grass to ensure that no mosquitoes, snakes, ants or the like could get close to her within a radius of two or three meters.

But in order to ensure that something unexpected like what just happened wouldn't happen again, Su Qingluan still had everyone sit in a circle with their backs to each other and their faces facing outwards, just to prevent anything from suddenly rushing over again, and everyone could see it and have an early warning.

At this time, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and could finally see how serious Liu'er's injuries were.

Su Qingluan asked Tian Xing'er to hold Liu'er to prevent her from shaking, while she gently took off her cloth shoes and socks, revealing the ankle of her injured foot.

The originally white and smooth ankle had become red and swollen. Su Qingluan frowned slightly: It was more serious than she thought.

Although she is not a professional medical worker, Su Qingluan has been traveling around the country with her master since she was a child in her previous life - although it was in search of delicious food - so she still has basic knowledge about injuries.

So she looked up and said to Liu Er in a soothing tone: "Let me check if the bones are broken. Don't be afraid."

Although Liu Er was still a little uneasy, she nodded, pursing her lips tightly. Tian Xing Er sensed her friend's fear from his slightly trembling shoulders and gently patted his shoulder, conveying her silent support and comfort.

Su Qingluan held Liu'er's calf with one hand and pinched her foot with the other, gently turning it a few times.

Although Liu'er shivered because of the pain, Su Qingluan observed that she was not in pain to the extent that her face turned pale, she was sweating profusely, or she screamed. Liu'er's ankles moved very flexibly in her palms, and there was no sense of obstruction.

"It's probably just a sprained joint, but fortunately no bones are injured. Go home and rest for a few days and you will be fine - oh, but don't use hot compresses, otherwise the swelling will get worse." Su Qingluan thought of some modern "negative examples" and hurriedly gave a warning.

Tian Xing'er couldn't help but sigh: "Da Ya, how come you seem to know everything? Could it be that the family that adopted you is a Xinglin family?"

"..." This question is really a lot to complain about. Su Qingluan thought to herself that she herself didn't quite understand what kind of family adopted her. Who made her a soul that was intercepted halfway?

But Liu'er was fine, so she could finally breathe a sigh of relief and take a break.

Su Qingluan sat on the grass and glanced around. The trees here were not towering trees, but short trees with bright red fruits on them. At first glance, they looked like mountain sorrel, but a closer look at the leaves did not reveal the similarities.

Su Qingluan wasn't sure, so she decided to ask the locals. She reached over and plucked a bunch of bright red wild berries and asked Tian Xing'er, "Can I eat these?"
