Bai Bing half-leaned in Lin Xi's arms, her body powerless, legs tingling and itching, as if numerous ants were crawling back and forth.
She had an impression of the snake, it was likely a highly venomous snake, said to cause life and death within five steps.
In these desolate mountains, with virtually zero medical conditions, she could only sit and await death.
Going to die, going to die!
Bai Bing was close to tears with regret, regretting she ran out alone, regretting shaking off her bodyguards, regretting coming to this remote place all by herself.
What infuriated her more was, she had specifically found a secluded spot to relieve herself, and some idiot had thrown something that happened to hit her on the head.
No idea if it was intentional, but a series of events afterward made her feel like her luck had hit rock bottom.
Although she was now lying in the arms of a slightly handsome guy, she harbored a faint hope in her heart, maybe this person was a prince sent by heaven to save her.
Reality is always brutal, Bai Bing soon noticed Lin Xi, with his worn-out white T-shirt and unkempt hairstyle.
A migrant worker?
He seemed to be, which made Bai Bing even more desperate!
Ah!
Is she going to be violated before dying?
From somewhere, Bai Bing found the strength to react, raising her arm and slapping Lin Xi across the face.
Lin Xi was momentarily stunned, his hands froze.
The slap on the face had no strength, especially feeling the smoothness of slender fingers, making Lin Xi's heart itch.
"Ha, doing this might cause me errors!" Lin Xi couldn't help muttering under his breath, he then ignored the angry Bai Bing, swiftly tore open the sock near the wound.
"No, no, no... please!" Bai Bing, feeling powerless, sensed the youth in front of her was even more outrageous, weakly pleaded, "I have a bank card in my wallet, there's a hundred thousand on it, I can give you the password, spare me, spare me!"
Lin Xi heard this, suddenly felt embarrassed, couldn't help but bellow, "If you don't want to die, shut up!"
If the low pleadings continued, there's no guarantee it might affect his rescue attempt.
Bai Bing grew even more panicked, her body struggled harder, desperately trying to escape the man in front of her.
But combined with her weakness, her struggle was even more frightening to Lin Xi.
And plus the hot weather, wearing thin clothes, really wasn't ideal.
Lin Xi shook his head, calmed down a bit, carried Bai Bing to the side of the path, laid her on a soft grassy spot, and took out a rectangular wooden box from his bag.
"Don't move!"
Opening the box, inside were numerous slender silver needles.
Lin Xi pondered, the poisonous snake was called the Five-step Snake, folklore said five steps to death, showing how potent its venom is.
Actually, after being bitten by such a snake, if treated properly and medication is timely, one can be saved.
But now, the situation is, first a lot of time has been wasted, second the woman struggled for a while, the venom is spreading throughout her body.
If treated by conventional means, death is certain.
What should be done now is to use silver needles to protect the important heart veins, then exert cultivation technique to draw out the poisoned blood with True Qi.
"Let me make it clear, I am saving you, not taking advantage of your situation."
"You must listen to me, don't forcibly struggle again, if the poison spreads to the heart veins, it'll be troublesome!"
Lin Xi took out a silver needle, looking at the desperate Bai Bing, thought for a moment and greeted her first.
Bai Bing also noticed the silver needle in Lin Xi's hand, in despair she held a sliver of hope, though she didn't fully believe Lin Xi's words, she had no choice now, couldn't resist even if she wanted to.
"Slash."
Fed up with the obstructive stockings, Lin Xi directly tore them off.
The wound showed signs of continuous bleeding.
The venom of the Five-step Snake is fire poison, after biting it can cause unstoppable bleeding, not only needing to protect the heart veins, but also controlling excessive bleeding.
Lin Xi focused for a moment, without hesitation, inserted the silver needles through the clothing at Bai Bing's crucial acupoints.
Bai Bing's pale complexion regained a bit of color.
Her overall condition improved a lot compared to before, she moved her lips, whispered "Thank you."
From Lin Xi's focused and skilled application of the silver needles, Bai Bing knew the young man before her was extraordinary.
Just several silver needles, and she felt much better at once.
Her impression of Lin Xi improved somewhat.
She ceased struggling, acknowledging resistance was futile.
With the important heart veins protected, she was resisting, but not to the same extent as before.
Lin Xi took a deep breath, secretly used cultivation technique, bowed his head to draw out the poison.
One mouthful.
Two mouthfuls.
Three mouthfuls.
,,,,,,,
Due to the rapid spread of the poison, Lin Xi sucked out more than ten mouthfuls before stopping.
Touched the sweat on his forehead, finally, it was a huge success.
Massaged the wound several times, the continuous blood flow stopped immediately.
Soon after, the wound was bandaged properly as well.
"You're fine now."
Lin Xi helped Bai Bing up from the ground, by now Bai Bing's pale face looked a bit better.
Bai Bing slowly opened her eyes, her gaze wary, not daring to face the man in front of her directly.
Pure and chaste as snow, since childhood besides close kin, no other man had ever touched her fingertip.
Although it was out of necessity to remove the poison, it was still skin contact!
"What's your name?" Bai Bing took the initiative to ask, breaking the awkward atmosphere.
"I have a dream of mine, the word 'dream,' split up, surname Lin first name Xi." Lin Xi unabashedly admired the woman in front of him, casually responded.
"Lin Xi, quite a nice name!" Bai Bing thought to herself, as she noticed Lin Xi staring at her, showing the same desire as other men, she couldn't help but slightly lower her previously growing appreciation.
Thinking about the item that hit her earlier, truly not a kind person, no different from the others!
"I hope today's incident stays between us, I don't want a word heard outside!" Bai Bing took out a bank card from her wallet, handed it to Lin Xi.
"There's a hundred thousand inside, the password is six eights, it's enough to repay your life-saving kindness!"
