"Auntie, you're lying to ~" Zhou Xiaobao looked utterly confused.
I squatted down to make eye contact with him at his level, "I'm not lying to you, auntie never tells lies. Be good, let Auntie see your wound."
Zhou Xiaobao pouted and hesitated for a while before he rolled up his sleeve.
It was shocking to see his arm covered in wounds.
It wasn't just one bite, but many.
He might have other bite wounds of varying degrees elsewhere on his body; the poor child had really suffered.
There were sounds of sharp intakes of breath from the onlookers nearby.
The crowd around us took steps back.
A whole circle of space opened up around us with
and the boy at the center.
I pressed at my forehead and said to Zhou Xiaobao, "Stand still and do not move, I'm going to look at that auntie's wound. Be obedient."
Zhou Xiaobao's poisoning was too severe.
It definitely couldn't be treated imdiately.
Zhou Xiaobao timidly nodded, his small hand grasping my clothes tightly.
The passerby showed
the bitten area, saying fearfully, "My wound is so itchy and painful, I'm not going to die, am I?"
"Your poisoning isn't deep, just make a cross over the bite and squeeze out the poisoned blood," I said to the passerby.
Imdiately, a kind-hearted person handed over a sharp, sterilized knife.
I made a cross on her wound and as I squeezed out the poisoned blood, I asked Xiao Li to bring so glutinous rice.
Once most of the poisoned blood was out, I placed glutinous rice wrapped in gauze on the wound, "Press this ball of glutinous rice on it, and after it turns black, replace it with a new one. Keep changing it until the rice doesn't turn black anymore."
Having dealt with that, the Zhou Family couple suddenly knelt before .
Zhou Ping's wife pleaded tearfully, "Big sister, please save my son, I beg you, my husband is the real scoundrel, he has a filthy and rotten heart, that's why he purposely troubled a kind-hearted and beautiful girl like you."
She cried uncontrollably, hitting Zhou Ping all the while.
Zhou Ping let his wife hit him, and said to , "Master, please be magnanimous and forgive , my son is still so young, it's all my fault for being blinded by stupidity..."
"I...will think of a way... everyone calm down, get up," I said. The thod I used to drive out the snake venom earlier ca from a Taoist priest at a dojo. My mother, fearing that I might get bitten by snakes, had asked for it due to many encounters with snakes before.
But Zhou Xiaobao's condition was quite severe, and this thod of expelling the poison wouldn't work on him.
I could make a detoxifying garnt for Zhou Xiaobao, but I would need to get materials from Granny Wu, and it would take ti to make the garnt.
In the anti, Zhou Xiaobao could very likely succumb to the poison.
Just as I was racking my brains for a solution, Little Dumpling spoke up in my mind, "Actually, drinking my blood could detoxify him."
Drink my baby's blood?
But he was just a little Fetal Pearl, how could he have blood to save soone?
He seed to sense my hesitation, "I can share my blood with Mommy, you can draw the blood from Mommy's body, but Mommy will get hurt this way, and I don't want Mommy to be hurt."
"Boss lady, could you please ask everyone to leave the restaurant? I would like to spend so ti alone with Zhou Xiaobao inside," I said, also concerned that the Silk Snake might appear at any mont and harm others, so I tried to make sure there were no people around us.
Chen Shufen trusted
very much and imdiately did as I asked, clearing out everyone from the restaurant.
I said to the Zhou Family couple, "I'll take your son into the restaurant to detoxify. You wait outside."
Zhou Ping's wife said, "Thank you, really thank you, I will teach Zhou Ping a lesson for you."
"It's all my fault, I'm shaless, I actually troubled the master earlier." Zhou Ping gave himself a slap on the ear, fearing that I was still angry with him and wouldn't care for his son.
I sighed helplessly but also felt envious of Zhou Xiaobao.
His parents were both by his side, desperately protecting him.
I took Zhou Xiaobao's hand and said, "Co inside the restaurant with Auntie, Auntie will help you detoxify, don't be afraid."
As I walked in, many people behind
were whispering, "That big sister is quite capable, she's holding that kid's hand and the snakes aren't biting her."
"What big sister, she's clearly a master, man, this feels like a hidden expert among the common folks."
"Absolutely, hidden in plain sight."
