Shu Jiaying finally breathed a sigh of relief, but she felt something was strange. Although she couldn't see the figure on the bed, the fabric of the person's clothes seemed to be quite high-end. She should not be someone that Ke could order around.
Putting down the dead branch in her hand, Shu Jiaying asked again, "Who are you? Why are you sleeping in my room?"
The man didn't say anything, but his body twitched.
With a doctor's intuition, Shu Jiaying immediately knew that the person on the bed was in a bad condition. She hurried to the bedside to take the person's pulse, but when her fingertips touched the person's pulse, her expression immediately became serious.
Somewhat unbelieving, she took the man's pulse again.
At this time, the man's face finally turned to Shu Jiaying.
Although the man in front of him had deep and three-dimensional facial features and was very handsome, his pale face made people feel that he might "ascend to heaven" in the next moment.
Shu Jiaying asked worriedly, "Sir, your pulse is rapid and irregular, sometimes floating and scattered, but absent when pressed. Before you were bitten by the snake, were you... suffering from a serious illness?"
The man on the bed's face changed drastically, and he asked back with difficulty.
"How...did you know that?"
Shu Jiaying did not answer immediately. She glanced at the man's feet.
There was a black cloth tied around the man's foot. She carefully untied the cloth with her hands and uncovered the man's wound.
The man's brows slightly frowned.
Shu Jiaying quickly asked, "Does it hurt?"
The man knew that Shu Jiaying wanted to treat him, and he shook his head.
"I can bear it, thank you for your help, young lady!"
He stopped talking, closed his eyes, and looked as if he was letting Shu Jiaying do whatever she wanted.
Seeing the man like this, Shu Jiaying felt like laughing. Could it be that this man could trust a stranger so easily?
However, given the man's current condition, it seems that he is trying his best to save his life.
After roughly understanding the man's injuries, Shu Jiaying said to him, "Rest here for a while. I'll go outside and find some herbs for you. Remember... in your current state, you absolutely cannot leave the bed and walk. Although you sucked out the venom in time, there's no guarantee that the venom is still in the wound. If you move, the remaining venom may travel to your heart. Even a god might not be able to save you then."
"Thanks!"
The man with his eyes closed uttered these two words, and suddenly he stopped moving. If Shu Jiaying had not still heard the man's breathing, she would probably prepare incense, paper and candles for the man out of humanity at this time.
Shu Jiaying tiptoed out of the thatched hut and found some mountain mint and nourishing heart grass in the weeds on the side of the mountain.
Mountain mint, also known as fragrant tea plant, got its name from its appearance which is similar to mint, but its effects are completely different from mint. It has obvious therapeutic effects on snake bites and snake venom.
As for Yangxincao, it has excellent effects of calming the mind and liver, soothing the nerves and replenishing blood, clearing away heat and detoxifying, stopping bleeding and removing blood stasis. At this time, you can pick some and chop it up to make porridge, because when Shu Jiaying took the man's pulse, she found that the man had a very serious heart problem. As for the details, it will require the right medicine in the future.
After picking the mountain mint and nourishing heart grass, Shu Jiaying went to the grocery store at the entrance of the village to buy an iron pot and some rice. When she returned to the thatched hut, the man was still sleeping.
