"Do you know what kind of snake this is?" Zhu Haiping asked the child's father.
"I have never seen this kind of snake. The child ran home and told me that he was bitten by a snake. I ran to the mountain and was scared when I saw the snake. I took out a stick and beat it to death." The child's father said anxiously.
"Did the snake attack you at that time?" Li Zheng asked. He had a rough idea, but still needed to confirm it.
"No, I hit its head flat with a stick, and then hit it in the seven inches, and it stopped moving."
Li Zheng frowned, asked the nurse to establish an intravenous access, put on gloves, and began to examine the snake.

Li Zheng pulled the snake skin off the neck again and saw the "V"-shaped white spot. His heart sank instantly.
