Jing Tian and Gao Da were stunned.
Jing Tian carefully held my hand and looked at the wound on my wrist. âGo and find Mr. Li!â
Gao Da asked his men to carefully put the small snake into the bag, and he followed us with Tong Yan in his arms.
When we passed the main house, the members of the Jing family walked out of the house noisily.
I quickly wrapped my arms around Jing Tianâs neck and said in a low voice, âQuickly hug me!â
Jing Tian instinctively hugged me. I closed my eyes and leaned my head against Jing Tianâs chest, my left hand hanging outside.
It was a pity that there were only two distinct teeth marks on my wrist. They werenât red, swollen, or black. However, I didnât have time to fake it. Someone had already surrounded me.
âWhatâs wrong?â Jing Yanâs loud voice was so noisy. I really wanted to throw her out. However, such an occasion required someone like her.
âOh! Sheâs poisoned! Nanxing is poisoned!â Why did Jing Yanâs voice sound so excited, elated, and gloating?
I endured it!
Iâll remember this matter. Jing Yan, letâs wait and see! I gritted my teeth secretly.
Everyone in the Jing family, regardless of whether I had offended them or not, surrounded me and cried out in surprise. I didnât even need to open my eyes to feel their joy!
This wasnât a cry of surprise but a cheer!
Jing Tianâs face should have turned black by now.
He didnât say a word. He carried me in his arms and strode toward Mr. Liâs residence. I opened my eyes a little bit and looked over. That group of people was whispering to each other. They would be going around telling people that I was dead soon.
That was good!
I might as well pretend to be dead and let everyone be happy.
Gao Da arrived before us. After all, Tong Yan was really poisoned, and I was just pretending.
Jing Tian placed me on the chair. âAlright, weâre here.â
I opened my eyes and looked toward the door.
âEveryone will probably rush over to watch the show later.â Jing Tian was a little annoyed.
I hurriedly went to see Tong Yan. âMaster, can you give Tong Yan my blood? I was bitten too. But Iâm fine!â I stretched out my hand to show Mr. Li.
Mr. Li examined Tong Yanâs wound and checked her pulse. In a low voice, he said, âI canât blindly use your blood now. She might be poisoned by you too.â
I was at a loss for words. âThen, then what should we do?â
My blood isnât stable.
Mr. Li took a small bottle from the small cabinet. He took a pill and placed it in Tong Yanâs mouth. âThe problem isnât too big. The snake is poisonous, but Tong Yan has been used to test medicine since she was young. Sheâll be fine.â
He fed Tong Yan some water and checked her pulse. âItâs alright. Sheâll wake up in a while. Weâll carefully examine her pulse and apply for the medicine.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âBring that snake over to me to take a look!â Mr. Li instructed Gao Da.
Gao Da carefully handed over the bag that contained the snake.
âIs it dead?â Mr. Li gently pinched the small snakeâs neck and shook it.
The small snakeâs red body swayed weakly.
âIt became like this after biting me.â I looked at the small snake curiously. It was quite pretty. It probably didnât expect to encounter something even more poisonous than itself.
Mr. Li shook it again. âItâs really unlucky. Itâs probably his first time out on a mission, and he met this unlucky child, Nanxing!â
I didnât mind this new name.
âMaster, can this little snake live? Can you feed it some of my blood?â I thought this little snake was quite cute.
Mr. Li said disdainfully, âItâs just a snake. Do you still want to waste your blood? Can you stop being so kind-hearted? Donât underestimate this snake. If it really bit Old Madam Jing, we would really have a tragedy on our hands.â
Jing Tian and I couldnât help but change our expressions.
âGao Da, help me find out who brought the snake in. I must find this person!â Jing Tian ordered in a low voice.
âYes! Iâll bring someone to investigate immediately.â When Gao Da turned around, he didnât forget to take a glance at the unconscious Tong Yan.
I picked up the small snake and looked at it carefully. âWho is so vicious? You raise worms for research purposes. The owner of this snake is obviously counting on it to harm others!â
