eriously. He thought that even if there was someone who understood a little bit of herbal medicine in this remote mountain village, they wouldn't be very skilled. At most, they just knew some superfic...Yu Lian stumbled around for a while, and to her surprise, she accidentally walked out of the forest.
She happily ran towards the forest, thinking that it would be easier to find her brother and sister-in-law in the open field. But when she got there, she realized it was a dead end.
Outside the woods was a large open space, quite nice. This clearing was connected to a cliff face, but there was no road in front of the cliff face, it was a sheer drop!
She carefully crept to the edge and peered down. The bottom was lost in a thick mist, seemingly bottomless.
Yulian, frightened, hastily retreated and sat on the ground, crying with a mournful face.
How could she be so useless As soon as she went up the mountain, she caused trouble and even lost herself.
Zongyu searched for a while but couldn't hear his sister's voice anymore. However, he heard other rustling sounds.
From above, in the trees, one could see a medium-sized wild boar rooting around in the grass.
Zongyu quietly drew his dagger from his body, just about to finish off the wild boar with one strike before continuing his search for Yulian.
Suddenly, I heard my sister's scream.
The scream also startled the wild boar in the grass, it ran forward with all its might, Zongyu hurriedly jumped down to chase after it.
The wild boar ran in the same direction as Yu Lian's scream.
Oh no! This wild boar is extremely aggressive. This forest is probably its territory. Jade Lotus's voice angered the boar, and its first reaction wasn't to run away, but to follow the sound instead.
It's probably treating the lily as an intruder on its territory.
Therefore, Zongyu hurried his pace even more.
He followed the wild boar into the clearing. Before him lay a vast open space, and in its center sat a person—his younger sister, Yu Lian.
Zong Yulian felt she was too unlucky. She had just finished watching the cliff, her legs still soft from the fright, when she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her calf.
I looked down and was bitten by a snake.
That scream came as she desperately grabbed a rock to smash the snake, but before she could even fully register that she had killed it, she saw a wild boar charging out of the forest, its eyes blazing with fury, and heading straight for her.
The color instantly drained from Zong Yulian's face, and she felt as if her life was coming to an end!
Her body froze, she didn't even have time to dodge the wild boar's charge.
At the critical moment, Jade Lotus gave up hope and closed her eyes, hugging her head and accepting her fate.
But she waited for a long time and didn't get the expected pain, instead, a familiar voice rang out above her head.
"Just ask yourself if you'll run around again next time."
Zong Yu originally wanted to find his sister and give her a good scolding, but seeing her trembling all over and collapsing on the ground in fear, he ultimately swallowed those words of reproach.
Jade Lotus looked up and saw her elder brother's face, and she burst into tears.
Someone grabbed onto Zongyu's legs, venting their fear.
Zongyu, unable to bear the sight, crouched down and hesitated for a moment before reaching out to gently pat his younger sister's back in comfort.
"Alright, that's all."
"Stay here and don't run around, I'm going to get your aunt and the others."
Yu Lian quickly nodded, her eyes lingering lovingly on Zong Yu.
"Come on, hurry up."
She never dared to tell anyone about being bitten by a venomous snake, waiting until Fang Jinshu arrived before she finally mustered the courage to speak in a trembling voice.
"Sister-in-law, I got bitten by a snake."
Zong Bai was furious.
Fang Jinshu hurriedly took out the medicine box to check Yulian's wound. Only Zong Bai was there, looking furious and pointing at her constantly.
"Zong Yulian, what can I say about you."
"I told you not to come, yet you came anyway."
"If Big Brother hadn't arrived in time just now, you would have been dead long ago!"
"You got bitten by a snake Where's that quick wit you use to argue and bicker with me at home"
"He ran away from home as soon as he got to the top of the mountain, didn't he"
The more Zong Bai scolded, the harder Yu Lian cried, sobbing and unable to retort.
Zongyu saw Zongbai and reached out to grab his hand.
Fang Jinshui also timely handed over a bag of medicine powder.
"Since there are poisonous snakes around here, it's better to sprinkle some insect repellent powder around to avoid being bitten if we're not careful."
She deliberately handed the medicine powder to Zongbei. Zongbei had no choice but to take it, swallowing the rest of his words. He turned and sprinkled the medicine powder.
Yulian cried and cried, suddenly her head felt dizzy, "Sister-in-law, what's wrong with me My head is so dizzy."
"I'm not dead, am I"
Fang Jinshi smiled at her, "Don't worry, sister-in-law won't let anything happen to you, it's just a small matter."
Then she bent down and sucked the poison blood out of Yu Lian's wound. This scene shocked Yu Lian.
"Sister-in-law, don't!"
She desperately tried to push Fang Jinshu off her leg, “Sister-in-law, there’s poison in the blood, you can’t suck it, if you get poisoned and die, I wouldn’t be able to live with myself.”
Fang Jinshui coughed up several mouthfuls of poisonous blood, then took out some clean water from her spatial ring and rinsed her mouth repeatedly until the metallic taste was gone. Only then did she swallow a detoxification pill.
I also gave a pill to Yu Lian.
"What are you talking about Don't you have any confidence in your sister-in-law's medical skills"on't have that much ability to earn this much money back.""Didn't you still stop me from going then Now you know how generous your sister-in-law is, right"After he finished speaking, he turned back an...
