When Zhang Fan saw the three people on the ground, he knew they had been poisoned by the five-step snake.
The five-step snake, also known as the sharp-nosed viper, is said to kill someone who is bitten within five steps.
This snake has an extremely high mortality rate; in ancient times, when medical conditions were poor, it had a 100% mortality rate.
Even in modern times, the mortality rate would be extremely high without serum.
However, this was not difficult for Zhang Fan. He used his spiritual power as needles, and the golden spiritual power pierced into several acupoints on the group of people to protect their heart meridians.
He searched the vicinity and found an antidote that could treat snake venom.
The five-step snake seemed addicted to biting people, and it came towards Zhang Fan, only to be struck by Zhang Fan's palm.
The five-step snake exploded, turning into a cloud of blood mist.
Zhang Fan clicked his tongue; his strength was still too great, a wasted bowl of dragon and phoenix soup.
He vividly remembered how delicious the Dragon and Phoenix Soup was last time.
He'll see some on the way and grab a few to take home and eat.
While his mind was working, his hands didn't stop.
He held the root of the Paris polyphylla in his palm, squeezed it tightly, and the juice flowed down between his fingers, dripping onto the mouths of the group.
The snake venom had already invaded their hearts. If it weren't for Zhang Fan's spiritual power acting as needles to protect their hearts, they would have already perished in the snake's mouth.
Ji Zhi had a dream in which ghost messengers were trying to capture him, but Zhang Fan appeared and rescued him.
Just as he was about to express his gratitude, a bright light suddenly appeared before his eyes. He opened his eyes abruptly and saw Zhang Fan's handsome face.
Ji Zhi closed his eyes again.
He must be half asleep; how could Doctor Zhang be at his bedside?
wrong.
Didn't he get lost in the forest and faint while sucking snake venom?
Could he be dead?
Filled with immense fear, Ji Zhi sat up abruptly and saw Zhang Fan sitting next to him, with two of his men sleeping on the floor.
Seeing this scene, Ji Zhi understood perfectly well that Zhang Fan had saved him.
Ji Zhi got up, knelt down in front of Zhang Fan, and kowtowed: "Dr. Zhang, thank you for saving my life."
Zhang Fan: "Get up, don't kneel so easily."
Ji Zhi insisted: "You saved us, you are our second parents, you should kneel down."
Wen Tian and Yan Wang were awakened by the noise. Upon seeing this scene, they understood everything after a moment's thought.
The two also stood up and kowtowed to Zhang Fan, saying, "Thank you, divine doctor."
Zhang Fan stretched and yawned: "It's getting late, let's go back. I hope you'll keep today's events a secret."
He didn't want to cause any trouble.
Wen Tian and Yan Wang had been secretly observing Zhang Fan, their eyes filled with admiration. Only then did they understand why their boss treated Zhang Fan so well.
They will definitely repay Zhang Fan in the future.
Zhang Fan walked along the steep southern slope as if he were at home, and even caught a few snakes along the way.
He led Ji Zhi and the others to the edge of the steep southern slope and pointed in a direction: "You should head in this direction."
As he spoke, he threw the stunned snake on the ground, picked up a plastic bag, and turned to walk into the steep south slope: "Just tell them you went to catch snakes."
Ji Zhi wanted to warn Zhang Fan to be careful, since they couldn't even find anything inside. But then he remembered that Zhang Fan had rescued them, so he didn't say anything and just silently prayed that everything would go well for Zhang Fan.
Wen Tian had a phobia of snakes, and in the end, it was Ji Zhi and Yan Wang who caught the snake and took it back.
As soon as they emerged from the woods, they saw Zhang Youde and the others shouting their names loudly.
Even though only one night had passed, Ji Zhi felt as if he had lived through another world. If it weren't for Zhang Fan, they would have truly been cut off from the world. He waved his arms happily, "Village Chief, we're here."
Seeing that they were alright, Zhang Youde breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that you're all safe."
Ji Zhi smiled apologetically and cupped his hands to the villagers who came to find them: "We were ignorant and greedy, wanting to catch snakes to eat. Thank you all for today. I will personally thank you all."
Zhang Youde waved his hand: "It's good that everyone is alright. Everyone, go back now."
Ji Zhi had saved Zhangjiapo's life, and since human life was of utmost importance, the villagers didn't say anything and went back to catch up on their sleep.
Some people thought differently. Li Ting pointed at the snake and said, "There aren't enough of you to eat this many. Why don't you bring back two to give everyone a treat?"
His head was wrapped in bandages, which had turned gray and dark red from not being changed for a long time, and looked dirty.
He had many scratches on his face, which would have made most people feel ashamed and avoid others, but he didn't care at all.
There's no way around it, my belly is more important than my face.
He used to rely on robbing others to get food, but since Zhang Si died, he has had no source of income.
Among the scoundrels he hung out with, some grew crops at home, while others went out to work. Only he was obsessed with getting something for nothing.
Zhang Youde scolded, "These snakes are enough to feed several people, but if you cook a pot of soup, each person won't be able to drink a single drop."
"Li Ting, you're still thinking about eating meat? I heard your lover and Zhang Qingshan are fighting at home every day. Aren't you going to help them?"
Li Ting's face turned pale and then red: "Don't talk nonsense, my relationship with her was an accident."
Someone quipped, "Oh, you like collecting other people's underwear, how perverted!"
Previously, Li Ting spread rumors in the village that Li Chunyan was having an affair with him, hoping to drown Li Chunyan in the villagers' scorn. Now, all of this is just reaping what he sowed.
Li Ting was mocked again, and he felt that his self-esteem as a man had been severely trampled.
He felt that being mocked as a scoundrel was an affirmation of his behavior, but he felt that those who mocked him for stealing Ma Ying were a great disgrace.
His eyes were bloodshot, his teeth were clenched so tightly they were grinding, and he shouted almost at the top of his lungs, "I didn't!"
The noise was so loud that the birds in the forest fluttered their wings and fled.
