After hearing the sound, Gao Mingcheng rushed over quickly, only to see Shi Laosan lying on the ground, convulsing all over.

At first, Gao Mingcheng thought that Shi Laosan was trying to trick him, so he was quite alert. However, when he saw that Shi Laosan was having difficulty breathing, nausea and vomiting, he felt that it was impossible that he was tricking him.

Because of this posture, it is difficult to shoot.

In fact, although Shi Laosan held the pistol tightly, his muscles were spasming and he couldn't control his fingers to raise the pistol.

At this moment, a tiny rustling sound caught Gao Mingcheng's attention. He quickly looked over and saw a bright snake tail. In just a moment, the entire snake tail was completely hidden in the dead branches and leaves.

Although he only took a glance, Gao Mingcheng still recognized that the snake was a beautiful snake. Beautiful snakes are quite beautiful, with a scarlet body and black stripes. They are relatively timid by nature and often only move in dense forests. They like to live under dead branches and leaves on the ground.

After seeing this beautiful snake, Gao Mingcheng understood what was going on. He then looked at Shi Laosan's feet and saw a fresh bite mark on Shi Laosan's ankle.

This Shi Laosan has such bad luck!

You know, the beautiful snake rarely bites people, but it likes to hide under dead branches and leaves, and also likes to hunt at night, so just now Shi Laosan might have accidentally frightened the beautiful snake, so it bit him.

The venom of the beautiful snake is mainly neurotoxin. Once a person is bitten, he will experience symptoms such as difficulty breathing, convulsions, nausea and vomiting. Shi Laosan's current symptoms are exactly the same.

After confirming that Shi Laosan was bitten by a poisonous snake, Gao Mingcheng thought for a moment, stepped forward and kicked the pistol out of Shi Laosan's hand, then took out the dagger from his waist.

Although Shi Laosan was poisoned, he did not fall into a coma. When he saw Gao Mingcheng approaching him with a dagger in his hand, his eyes were slightly wide open, and he was obviously shocked and angry.

Gao Mingcheng squatted down and said calmly: "I advise you not to get excited, otherwise it will speed up the spread of the snake venom."

As soon as he finished speaking, he had already torn off a piece of vine with his bare hands, used the vine as a rope, and tied it around Shi Laosan's bitten ankle.

The area above the ankle is close to the heart, so a circular ligation is required to prevent the spread of toxins.

After ligation, Gao Mingcheng used a dagger to cut a cross-shaped wound in the skin near the tooth mark, and then squeezed it hard to expel the poisonous blood as much as possible.

When the poisonous blood was almost drained, he took out a lighter and burned the wound.

The conditions here are limited, and Gao Mingcheng can only use all the means he knows.

Venom is essentially the snake's digestive juice and a type of protein. Protein will denature when exposed to heat, so even if it is a poisonous snake, it can still be eaten after being stewed.

All possible means have been taken. Now it all depends on whether Shi Laosan is lucky enough to survive.

While he was treating the wound, Shi Laosan's face was filled with pain, but he still endured it without saying a word. He is really a tough guy.

At this time, Gao Mingcheng also knew that the previous shot had indeed hit Shi Laosan, but it hit his shoulder instead of the vital part.

After thinking about it, Gao Mingcheng decided to save the man to the end. He took out the hemostatic medicine and bandage from his pocket and simply treated Shi Laosan's wound.

The bullet was stuck in the flesh and Gao Mingcheng had no way of pulling it out, so he could only leave it stuck for the time being.

"I'll carry you down the mountain." Gao Mingcheng said, picked up the pistol he had kicked away, turned off the safety, put it in his pocket, then bent down and carried Shi Laosan on his back.

In the previous battle between the two, both wanted to kill each other, and Gao Mingcheng showed no mercy. If he killed Shi Laosan in the battle, he would be fine.

If a driver kills a bandit in self-defense while driving, it is not a crime. Gao Mingcheng helped the police chase a criminal and accidentally killed the criminal, which is also a form of self-defense.

But it is possible to kill someone accidentally during a fight. Now that Shi Laosan was bitten by a poisonous snake, Gao Mingcheng still treated Shi Laosan out of humanitarianism.

The neurotoxin of the beautiful snake is very strong. If not treated in time, the person bitten will die from respiratory failure.

It can be said that Gao Mingcheng does not need to make a finishing move. As long as he does nothing, Shi Laosan will die of the poison after a while.

"You just have to bear with it and stay calm, so that the snake venom won't easily spread throughout your body." Gao Mingcheng said in a low voice, but he could still feel that Shi Laosan's body was still convulsing and his breathing was heavy, and it seemed that he was having difficulty breathing.

But Gao Mingcheng had done what he could. The next step was to carry Shi Laosan down the mountain as quickly as possible and let medical staff provide professional treatment.

Shi Laosan didn't say a word, but he was very receptive. He knew that what Gao Mingcheng said was right, so he tried to adjust his breathing and calm his excited emotions.

His head leaned weakly on Gao Mingcheng's shoulder, his eyes looking ahead, but it was still pitch black.

But Gao Mingcheng walked in the mountains very steadily, as if he was not affected by the rugged mountain road.

Shi Laosan also noticed that Gao Mingcheng was carrying him on his back while walking with steady breathing and even steps, as if he was not tired at all.

Such physical fitness shocked Shi Laosan.

At the same time, the string in my heart broke.

He thought in annoyance that it was not a loss for him to be defeated by such a person.

After Gao Mingcheng had been carrying Shi Laosan for more than ten minutes, he heard some movement in the woods ahead, and saw several beams of flashlight shining through the trees and flashing in the forest.

"Uncle, I'm here!" Gao Mingcheng simply shouted.

He knew that the people coming were Gao Guobing and his men. They must have heard the previous gunshots and came here.

However, because there was still a criminal, they did not dare to shout as they searched for them.

Hearing Gao Mingcheng's voice, Gao Guobing immediately said, "Mingcheng, are you okay?"

"It's okay, I caught Shi Laosan." Gao Mingcheng had just finished speaking when he heard Gao Guobing and the others' footsteps become more hurried.

Soon, Gao Guobing, Xiao Zhang and Xiao Song appeared one after another.

Everyone was originally scattered, but now they all came here together.

Gao Guobing breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Gao Mingcheng was fine.

Only after that did he see that Gao Mingcheng was carrying someone on his back.

The man's face was pale and his breathing was rapid. He looked unwell. Is this man Shi Lao San? Gao Guobing thought to himself and looked at Shi Lao San more carefully.

"Ming Cheng, what's wrong with him?" Gao Guobing asked.

Gao Mingcheng said: "He was shot and bitten by a beautiful snake. I treated his wounds, but we still have to get down the mountain as soon as possible."

When Gao Guobing heard that Shi Laosan was bitten by a beautiful snake, he couldn't help but sigh at Shi Laosan's bad luck.

The weather is getting colder now. By November, snakes will hibernate one after another. The beautiful snake lives in the deep mountains and is active at night, so it rarely bites people.

Here, the number of people bitten by the beautiful snake in a year may be only in the single digits.

"Okay, then let's go down the mountain. You are responsible for carrying him, and we will escort the others down the mountain." Gao Guobing said while winking at Gao Mingcheng.

Gao Mingcheng understood it clearly.

This is because they were afraid that if they left together, Shi Laosan would find out that Xiaole was beaten to death, and would become emotionally agitated, causing other accidents.

So he carried Shi Lao San on his back to the cabin on the mountainside. In the cabin were Mao Zi and his injured second uncle. (End of this chapter)
