Chapter 38 Bitten by a Venomous Snake



The flow of the small town was like a slowly flowing stream, calm and steady, and I escaped from the inn wonderfully.

With the help of the Disguise Pill, Bai Linglong deceived the King of Zhennan, Nangong Yan, and restored her previous appearance.

The clinic was still filled with the faint aroma of herbs. Bai Linglong still maintained her usual rules and only saw ten patients a day, and no more.

That morning, the sunlight shone through the gaps in the windows and onto the floor of the clinic, forming patches of golden light.

Bai Linglong got up early as usual and began to organize the medicinal materials and instruments in the clinic.

Xiao Cui was busy sweeping the toilet nearby, humming a cheerful little tune, sweeping away the previous gloom.

"Miss, I don't know what kind of patients will come today."

Xiao Cui said while wiping the table, with a smile on her face, a curious gleam in her eyes.

Bai Linglong smiled gently, flipping through the herbal medicine illustrations in her hand, and responded without raising her head: "No matter what kind of patient comes, we will just treat him wholeheartedly.

Doctors are kind-hearted, and every patient is their responsibility. ”

As she spoke, she picked up a medical book, sat down at the table and began to study it carefully, with a focused expression, as if she was in a world that belonged only to medicine.

Before Bai Linglong could read a few pages, the door of the clinic was suddenly pushed open by someone with force, making a loud "bang".

Bai Linglong and Xiao Cui were so frightened by the sudden noise that they trembled all over and almost dropped the things in their pockets.

They looked up quickly and saw a man being carried in by several people.

The man's face was as pale as paper, completely bloodless, and beads of sweat the size of beans kept rolling down his forehead.

One of his legs was swollen like a fermented dough, bulging high, and black blood was still oozing from the wound.

A fishy smell instantly filled the clinic. It was obvious that the patient was bitten by a poisonous snake and the situation was extremely critical.

The man’s wife followed closely behind, her cries instantly breaking through the sky and drilling straight into everyone’s ears: “Dr. Bai, help!

My man was bitten by a poisonous snake, please save him! ”

She pounced in front of Bai Linglong with a "thump", and clutched the corner of Bai Linglong's clothes tightly with both hands, as if she had grasped the last hope. Her fingertips turned white due to the force, and her voice was crying, almost desperate.

"Doctor Bai, you must save Dad!"

The man's son was also crying and shouting, tears welling up in his eyes uncontrollably, his small body shaking violently with fear and worry.

The people around also gathered around, their faces full of worry.

"This snake bite is like this, I'm afraid there's no way to save him."

An old man shook his head, his voice trembling, his cloudy eyes full of helplessness, as if he had already pronounced a death sentence on the man's life.

"Yes, the poison seems to be very deep. I'm afraid my life may not be saved."

A young man echoed this, his face full of fear, and he kept shaking his head, as if lamenting the fickleness of fate.

"Maybe he'll have to have his limbs amputated, otherwise the poison will attack his heart and even the gods won't be able to save him."

People in the crowd were talking in low voices; their voices were so low, yet they struck everyone's heart like a heavy hammer.

Seeing this, Bai Linglong quickly stepped forward to check the man's injuries.

Her brows instantly twisted into the shape of a "川" character, and her eyes revealed a solemn look.

At this time, Zhang Dagui from the clinic also hurried over.

Zhang Da is a middle-aged man who has been practicing medicine for many years and is very experienced. He usually sits in the clinic with his master Bai Linglong.

"Master, this man's leg is broken. He needs to have it amputated, otherwise his life will be in danger."

Zhang Da looked at Bai Linglong with an anxious tone, beads of sweat oozing from his forehead. It was obvious that he also understood that the situation could not be delayed.

Bai Linglong shook her head and said firmly, "No, it depends on you."

Her voice was firm and confident, and her eyes revealed an unquestionable light, as if she was announcing to everyone that this problem was not worth mentioning in front of her.

Everyone was surprised when they heard this.

“No amputation?

How can this be cured? ”

A woman in the crowd opened her eyes wide, her face full of confusion, and raised her voice a few degrees, full of doubt, as if waiting for a reasonable explanation.

"Yes, with such a serious injury, how can we not amputate it?"

A tall and thin man also questioned it, with disbelief written all over his face. He spread his hands, as if seeking approval from the people around him, his eyes full of confusion.

"How is this possible?

I have lived for most of my life and have never seen a snake bite like this being cured without amputation. ”

A middle-aged man in rough linen clothes, with a puzzled look on his face, scratched his head and raised his voice, attracting the attention of people around him.

An old woman with gray hair, with her arms folded on her chest, shook her head slightly, her face full of worry: "Alas, this child is kind-hearted, please don't delay his treatment. Amputation is the right way to save his life."

"Maybe Doctor Bai really has some magic recipe?

It has been cured before, so it is not a difficult or complicated disease. ”

A young man stood up and spoke for Bai Linglong, with a hint of expectation in his eyes.

"What's the magic formula?

Could it be possible that she could conjure an antidote out of thin air? ”

The middle-aged man immediately retorted, his tone full of disdain.

At this time, a hunter-like man carrying a bamboo basket on his back also spoke up: "We should listen to Master Zhang. He has been practicing medicine for many years, so he can't be wrong."

Although Doctor Bai is quite capable, the injury this time is too serious. ”

Everyone was arguing, most people still felt that amputation was the only solution, only a few people still had a glimmer of hope for Bai Linglong.

These sounds intertwined and filled the small space of the clinic, but Bai Linglong seemed not to hear them, and was fully focused on treating the injured.

Bai Linglong turned a deaf ear to the doubts from the people around her, and calmly turned sideways, hiding herself in the dim light with the help of her sleeves.

She seemed to be observing the injured calmly, but in fact she was silently concentrating her mind and establishing a connection with the mysterious space.

Bai Linglong moved her mind, and the crystal bottle containing the serum appeared steadily in her body.

The light blue liquid in the bottle was gleaming with a dreamy glow. This serum came from her space hospital.
