Chapter 154 - 154 After revision 154 Bitten by a Snake

154: After revision: Chapter 154 Bitten by a Snake 154: After revision: Chapter 154 Bitten by a Snake Liu Sheng had always been resentful towards Wu Xiaoyu.

Hearing his cousin praising Wu Xiaoyu like this, he immediately interrupted and scolded:

“What skills?

Isn’t he just another person with a head and two shoulders?

What’s the big deal!

Just follow me and pick mushrooms properly, and when we make money, you can open your own chicken farm!”

After reprimanding his cousin, Liu Sheng glanced disdainfully at Wu Xiaoyu’s chicken farm, then led the two of them quickly up the mountain.

After climbing hard for more than ten minutes, they finally left Wu Xiaoyu’s chicken farm far behind, but then found themselves with no way to proceed further up.

At a few hundred meters from the peak of Bear Mountain, the ground unexpectedly sunk in, forming a ring-shaped pit filled with a variety of wild grasses and shrubs.

Seeing this, Liu Benmu exclaimed: “Damn!

How did such a large part of the mountain collapse?

Brother, where do you think Wu Daqing and the others pick their mushrooms?

They couldn’t have climbed through this pit to the top, could they?”

Although the ring-shaped pit was not very wide, it was extremely steep and densely covered with wild grasses.

How could anyone possibly get through?

Liu Sheng felt uneasy, and looking down, he saw a large forest on the northern side of the mountain, which immediately lifted his spirits.

Could the forest Wu Daqing mentioned be that one?

Pointing to the forest, Liu Sheng said, “Alright!

Let’s not worry about how to climb up.

They must be picking mushrooms there.

Let’s go to the north side of the mountain!”

There were hardly any paths from 200 meters above the chicken farm, and the area was particularly strewn with loose rocks.

They had slipped several times on the way up, and now the two cousins were a bit discouraged at the thought of heading down to the forest on the north side.

“Brother, are you sure there’s mushrooms there?

What if we go down there and find nothing?” Liu Chuanchuan questioned.

Liu Sheng scolded, “Alright!

Do you want to make money or not?

You think money is easy to earn?

If you’re not willing to put in a bit of effort, what money can you possibly make?

If you want to pick mushrooms with me, stop whining!”

The two cousins went silent and cautiously followed him down the mountain.

After walking north for a short distance, they found the wild grasses were getting thicker and sharper, cutting their ankles until they were almost completely lacerated.

“Brother, I can’t take it anymore.

These grasses are too sharp.

I’m not going any further!” Liu Benmu complained, halting in his tracks.

Liu Sheng’s ankles were also cut, but money was all he could think about.

He snarled, “I told you to wear long pants, but you wouldn’t listen.

Who’s to blame?”

The other cousin, Liu Chuanchuan, also frowned, wanting to turn back.

Seeing this, Liu Sheng had to stop and say, “Alright, let’s rest for a while!”

As they were about to find a big rock to sit on and rest, they heard a rustling sound in the grass.

Just then, a colorful snake darted out of the grass and bit Liu Sheng’s ankle.

The two cousins panicked and ran away, but Liu Sheng, fearful, didn’t dare move an inch.

“Don’t run away!

Help me…

help me…” Liu Sheng tremblingly and frantically cried out.

Fortunately, the two cousins, showing some family loyalty, stopped after a short distance.

Turning back, they asked, “Brother, are you alright?

That’s a Five-step Snake, it’s venomous…”

Damn it!

Knowing it’s venomous, why even ask if I’m alright?

Liu Sheng was on the brink of tears.

Fortunately, the snake, after biting him, abandoned him and darted away.

Seeing the venomous snake leave, Liu Sheng still didn’t dare move and tearfully pleaded, “It’s gone…

it’s gone, please come help me!”

Seeing the snake gone, the two cousins came over.

Liu Benmu took out his shoelace and tied it around Liu Sheng’s ankle.

Then, the two of them carried him down the mountain.

“I won’t die, will I?

Why am I feeling so cold…

I’m going to die…

I’m going to die…

someone help me…

help me…

I don’t want to die…

I haven’t gotten married yet…”

The venom was spreading quickly in Liu Sheng’s body.

He felt as if he were floating in the clouds, while something seemed to be exploding in his mind.

He suddenly realized with a clear mind: Am I going to die?

The cousins had initially been against coming up the mountain to pick mushrooms, but Liu Sheng’s persistent persuasion finally brought them along.

However, they hadn’t even seen a shadow of a mushroom, and Liu Sheng had already been bitten by a snake, and a venomous one at that.

Terrified, the cousins hurriedly carried him down the mountain, fearing what to tell their family if Liu Sheng didn’t make it.

Descending was harder than climbing up, but desperate to save him, they disregarded the loose rocks and wild grasses and rushed down the mountain with Liu Sheng.

In less than twenty minutes, they carried Liu Sheng to the chicken farm.

Seeing Wu Dushan mixing feed for the chickens, they frantically shouted, “Brother Dashan, is Xiaoyu here?

Hurry…

hurry and call her out!”

Though Wu Dushan didn’t understand what was happening, seeing his cousins carrying a deathly pale Liu Sheng, and looking extremely alarmed, he threw down what he was holding and went to call Wu Xiaoyu.

Wu Xiaoyu, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened by the noise outside and grumpily shouted, “What’s going on?”

Hearing Wu Xiaoyu awake, Wu Dushan hurriedly called, “Xiaoyu, get out here…

get out here quickly, someone’s in bad shape!”

Someone’s in bad shape?

Who?

Wu Xiaoyu suddenly awoke, quickly put on some pants, and rushed outside, shouting, “Who?

Who’s in bad shape?

What happened?”

As soon as he asked, he saw Liu Benmu and his brother, holding a near-lifeless Liu Sheng, standing outside the fence with tear-streaked faces.

Liu Chuanchuan cried out, “Brother Xiaoyu, please save my brother!

He was bitten by a venomous snake…”

Bitten by a snake?

Seeing their ankles, Wu Xiaoyu realized they had been to the mountaintop, and Liu Sheng was probably trying to pick mushrooms.

Wu Xiaoyu rushed over, opened the door, let them in, and laid Liu Sheng flat on the ground, only to find his ankle already black and blue, with the wound still bleeding.

Although Wu Xiaoyu despised Liu Sheng, seeing him in such a state, he couldn’t just let him die.

He clamped Liu Sheng’s leg to slow the blood flow and asked, “What kind of snake bit him?

Did either of you see it?”

“It was a Five-step Snake…”

The venom of a Five-step Snake, though not extremely strong, could be fatal.

The wound would keep bleeding, forming bubbles, and rotting, with the venom spreading through the blood, ultimately leading to death.

Fortunately, he hadn’t been bitten long, and with appropriate treatment, he might survive.

While pinching the blood vessels in his leg, Wu Xiaoyu quickly applied pressure to several acupoints on Liu Sheng’s chest to prevent the leg’s blood from flowing to his heart.

He then started draining the blood from Liu Sheng’s leg.

Although Wu Xiaoyu’s skills were not top-notch, draining the blood from the blood vessels was easy for him.

As Wu Xiaoyu was treating Liu Sheng, a few other cousins came up the mountain.

Seeing this scene, they were terrified.

After speaking with Wu Dushan and learning that Liu Sheng was bitten by a snake while picking mushrooms, the other cousins grew even more fearful and inclined to leave.
