Chapter 242 Life Hangs in the Balance



Besides, Lan Jingtang said it was highly poisonous, so who knows if he can hold out until An Yuan'er brings people to rescue him.

With so many variables involved, keeping him here now is just letting him wait to die.

Even if An Yuan'er had something to ask of Lan Jingtang, it wouldn't be in An Yuan'er's nature to stand by and watch someone die.

An Yuan'er saw the snow lotus that Lan Jingtang was still holding and pulled it over to him.

An Yuan'er was about to apply the snow lotus to his skin when Lan Jingtang cried out, "No! My snow lotus! My snow lotus! Don't ruin it!"

This guy is still feeling sorry for Xue Lian right now!

"Isn't this snow lotus the legendary cure-all for all poisons? Can't it work?"

Lan Jingtang shook his head: "This snow lotus is meant to be ground into powder and boiled into medicine for internal use. Applying it directly to the wound won't have any effect. This snow lotus is precious; don't waste it."

"At least it'll be a little better! At this point, there's no time to worry about anything else."

An Yuan'er is arguing about the snow lotus again.

Lan Jingtang thought to himself, "I risked my life to get this snow lotus, how can I let An Yuan'er waste it like this?"

He wailed, "My dear aunt, I haven't even been poisoned yet, but you've already made me so angry that I'm about to have a heart attack. If you have any complaints, come to me, don't take it out on my precious Snow Lotus."

After Lan Jingtang spoke for a long time, Xue Lian finally survived in An Yuan'er's hands.

An Yuan'er couldn't understand why Lan Jingtang was still such a miser.

If you don't use something, how can you get it again? An Yuan'er couldn't understand it.

"You should leave now, or it will be too late." Lan Jingtang urged An Yuan'er to leave again.

An Yuan'er didn't leave. Instead, she asked him, "You're supposed to be a renowned doctor. Don't you have any other ways to treat snake venom?"

Lan Jingtang replied quickly and very abruptly: "No."

"You're lying! At least think before you answer."

"No."

"Liar!"

Lan Jingtang seemed unwilling to talk about it.

An Yuan'er discovered that his right arm had been bitten, and black blood was still oozing from it.

An Yuan'er had a sudden inspiration and remembered reading in that ancient book of the Lan family that if you are poisoned by snake venom, you need to suck out the venomous blood so that it will not spread.

She lifted Lan Jingtang's arm and tentatively asked, "Do we need to suck out the poisonous blood?"

"No," Lan Jingtang denied, turning his head away.

But he didn't dare look at An Yuan'er, which clearly meant he wasn't telling the truth again.

"That seems to be the case."

An Yuan'er was about to let him suck her blood when Lan Jingtang scolded her, "If you don't mind living a long life, then go ahead and suck my blood."

An Yuan'er's movements stopped.

Her voice trembled slightly: "Is sucking out this poisonous blood really that serious?"

Lan Jingtang's expression was solemn, and he didn't seem to be lying: "This sea snake is the most venomous of all snakes. Even if you vomit it out immediately after sucking out the venomous blood, the venomous blood will inevitably enter your body throughout the process. Direct contact with the venomous blood will double the toxicity, and even a god couldn't save you."

An Yuan'er hadn't expected it to be so serious, and she let go of Lan Jingtang's hand.

She lowered her head and murmured to herself, "There are still so many places I haven't been to, so many delicious foods I haven't eaten, and so many things I haven't said to the people I should say them to. I don't want to die yet."

Having finally been given a second chance at life, An Yuan'er never expected to die like this.

Fear of death is human nature, and Lan Jingtang understood it perfectly. He said frankly, "You're right. You can go now."

He closed his eyes and didn't say another word.

An Yuan'er stood up and took a few steps: "Then I'll find the exit quickly. Once I find it, I'll immediately find someone to rescue you. Hang in there."

An Yuan'er steeled her heart and walked forward.
