It occurred to her, ‘My man, Zhou Fuquan, told me that when he and Li Gui saw second Brother Xiao on the hillside, Brother Xiao was holding a snake in his hand. At first, Fuquan and Li Gui thought it was a live snake, but upon closer inspection, they realized Second Brother was holding a dead snake with a rotting head. I assume that this snake bit Brother Xiao, and he killed it.”

“Judging by the injury, it was bitten by this kind of poisonous snake.” Qingyue added, “Before decocting the medicine, wash the pot clean first. The pot is specifically used for decocting medicine for Fourth Brother and the remnants left inside cannot be mixed with the new medicine.”

“Alright.” Upon seeing Su Qingyue heading off to the master bedroom again, Wang Cuihua couldn’t help admiring her calm demeanor. Qingyue wasn’t even afraid of snakes. Although it was a dead snake, Cuihua herself was most afraid of snakes, dead or alive. Nevertheless, she had to brace herself and decoct the medicine.

Su Qingyue stood by the edge of the bed in the main bedroom, stripped off Xiao Yisnan•s c10tnes, ana noticea a tear In ms c10tnes wnere a piece or ratjrmc was missing. The missing piece of fabric was tied around his thigh.

Second Brother tied it there to prevent the spread of the snake venom.

However, she had already applied medicine to him, which needed to take effect, so she untied the piece of fabric from his thigh.

Then, she loosened Brother Xiao’s belt and slowly pulled down his pants.

She had to use acupuncture to control the snake venom for Brother Xiao, which would be inconvenient with his clothes on.

Because Brother Xiao’s left shin bone was fractured and his right ankle was treated with medicine for a snake bite, she was as gentle as possible when taking off his pants.

If this had been in modern times, she would have simply cut the patient’s pants with scissors in a situation like this to avoid touching the wound.

Second Brother has only two sets of clothes to change into for the summer, besides the ones he is wearing, there is only one more set in the cabinet. Therefore, she avoided cutting up his clothes if she didn’t have to.

Tossing the clothes she took off him to one side, now he was left in only his big underwear.

Being a doctor who should be used to seeing naked bodies of patients, every time she saw Brother Xiao’s figure, she could not help but marvel at its grandness. Brother Xiao’s skin was originally a bronze color, but due to the many years of hunting in the mountains and overexposure to the sun, it had become a dark tan.

Far from feeling discordant, this appearance made Brother Xiao look all the more rugged and sensual!

Those strong lines, those hefty arms, toned abdominal muscles…

She originally wanted to appreciate Brother Xiao’s figure properly, even better if she could touch him…

However, Brother Xiao’s body now is bruised in multiple places from rolling down the slope, and his skin has turned cyan from the poisoning.

She couldn’t afford to be an anthomaniac at this moment.

Taking the pack of silver needles that cost her one tael of silver from the head of her bed, she picked a needle and inserted it into Brother Xiao’s Tianxi acupoint on his chest, then another one into the Zhou Rong acupoint, Daheng acupoint…

The force with which each needle was inserted was just right, and the acupoints were accurately located.

In a short while, several needles of different lengths were inserted at several acupoints on Xiao Yishan’s chest and head.

The snake venom had spread to Brother Xiao’s limbs, but fortunately, it hadn’t reached his brain or heart. All she needed to do was protect his brain and heart while performing the acupuncture. The rest could only be dealt with waiting for the medicine to take effect and for Brother Xiao’s immunity to slowly neutralize the snake venom.

After the acupuncture was done, she immediately found the two bamboo slices she had used when she fractured her wrist. She crushed up the same medicinal paste she had applied to Brother Xiao’s snakebite wound, which was also highly effective in healing wounds. Holding the fracture in Brother Xiao’s left shin with both hands….
