Snake Venom

I nodded and followed the group into the village. I looked around, like a native of a television show, and saw that the houses were very backward and made of wood.

After bringing us to a room, a person walked out. He looked very similar to us, I looked at Wang Ming and asked, "Does this person speak Chinese, do you want to try?"

Before we could speak, he spoke to us in Mandarin.

The two of them conversed for a bit, and Wang Ming told me that this person was not simple, that the corpse rearing grounds outside could actually be made by him, and that the Qi on his body was very special, I had to be careful.

Wang Ming and I were brought to different rooms, and then the one who speaks Chinese came over to ask me a bunch of questions, which were basically to tell me the purpose of this place.

I didn't try to hide anything from him and explained the matter to him. That person seemed to be very interested in me and asked if I had a deep understanding of snakes. I nodded my head but didn't say anything.

He brought Wang Ming to this room and proudly said: "This time, I'll let you all go, but I have a friend here who got bitten by a snake in the desert, this place is very backward and has no serum, we can only temporarily control the spread of the venom, but we can't save his life, if you can save him, I can help you guys catch the snake, what about it!"

After Wang Ming heard this, he frowned, he said that there was nothing in this place, it would be difficult to make a meal out of it.

The man told us to go first and then to make a decision. It would be good if there was a way, at least with hope.

There was no room for resistance at all as they brought us directly to a very remote room.

As soon as I entered, I smelled a strong scent. I couldn't tell what was going on, but I felt uncomfortable.

There was a very skinny young man lying on the bed. His face was pale and his expression serene. There were a few people standing around him, probably serving this person.

After Wang Ming saw it, he immediately walked over. Placing his right hand on the man's chin, he moved his head to the left and right, carefully examining the skinny man's neck, then picked up his hand and looked at his fingernails.

These were the simplest methods to understand snake venom, and also the fastest way to determine if this person could be saved. If the skin on the neck and fingernails turned green, even if there was serum on them, they would still die.

Wang Ming's face did not look good, he took off the skinny guy's shoes, and pressed his toes a few times. He shook his head, and then walked in front of us in embarrassment.

"The chances aren't high. This poison has been poisoned for a long time. I don't have much confidence."

"Men, bring the snake that they want!"

Hearing that, Wang Ming pulled me to the side, and said that the poison in that person's body was very strong, and there was a way, but if it was successful, I would live, and if it wasn't successful, I would die, very risky, and my success rate was only 40%.

This is simply gambling. If I fail, then it would be three people who would die, making my life a wager as well. Both of us are hesitant because of this.

When the snake was brought over, Wang Ming's eyes lit up. He smiled as he walked in front of the snake and compared the photos with them, then said to them, "I'll save this person, I'll save him."

I went over to pull on Wang Ming's clothes and said: "Are you crazy? If you don't make things worse, we might all die."

Wang Ming was still looking at the snake, telling me not to be anxious, even if we don't save him, we will die, why don't we use this 40% confidence to fight? At least, we still have a chance.

After that, Wang Ming dragged me outside to tell those people that it was to discuss a way to save the person, and that I could not let anyone else come over.

After coming out, I immediately asked Wang Ming what was going on and how he was going to save him.

Wang Ming took out a snake from his backpack and said: "My snakes are all gone, and yours seems to be. Let's ask them for some more and use poison on them later."

It's not that I'm afraid, it's that the success rate of this method is extremely low. If our poison was strong, then that person would have been even more poisoned. If it was weak, then that person might have been heavy with two poisons.

Seeing me not saying a word, Wang Ming also became silent, as if he was waiting for my answer.

"Do you think that person was the one who raised the corpse? If so, can we ask him about that first?" The reason why I said those words was to stall for time and to think about what would happen in the future. Even if I can't do it properly, I have to think of a way out.

Wang Ming sneered, and said that I still hadn't achieved any results, but to think of it, my thinking was too unrealistic. Right now, there are two paths, one is to continue healing, the other is to run, but the consequences of failure are both death.

I gritted my teeth and nodded towards Wang Ming: "Let's go all out, even if we live, we can still get a snake."

After the decision was made, the two of them went in to find those people and explained the method. At first, there was a lot of opposition, but our lives were also tied to the victims', so they decided to give it a try.

When everything was settled, Wang Ming told me that the person who was poisoned should have a very high position in the village. Everyone respected him and many people opposed him, so Wang Ming did not believe that the entire village's people were related to him.

I don't care about those. Regardless of his identity, he might just die here. I don't care about his affairs, I can just make a move on him.

The two of them brought in a lot of snakes that we are familiar with, because we know how large the poison is. We know what the ratio of the venom is and we don't even look at those we aren't familiar with.

The dosage and toxicity are both very important. In a bit of time, we need to check the body of that poisoned person to see how deep the poison is in his body.

In the end, the two of them were exhausted and sat on the ground to rest for a long time. Only then did they place the snake venom next to the poisoned person.

In the village, we found the syringe and injected the venom directly into the body of the person. This way, the detoxification speed would be faster and the reaction of the two venoms would be more intuitive.

Not long later, that person's body began to tremble violently on the bed. His eyes widened as his body turned purple.

This was not a good situation. It seemed like he was going to die. The poison was clearly much deeper. It seemed like there was a problem with the ratio.

Wang Ming held onto my clothes, and softly said. "Don't be nervous, we have to see this to the end, and this is only the beginning."

I didn't even dare to look and directly closed my eyes and ran out. There were a few people following behind me, but they didn't do anything to me. It was probably because they were afraid that I would run away.

Outside, he still couldn't calm down. This is the first time Wang Ming and I have made a business deal, if we just die like this, that would be really unfair.

Wang Ming slowly came out of the room, and smiled bitterly at me. I knew in my heart that I had to run, so I quickly observed my surroundings and the people around me.

But Wang Ming just directly pounced on me, shook my body and said: "We've succeeded, succeeded, he's alive!"

I felt that Wang Ming was deceiving me, so I walked over to his side and quietly said. "Speak, are we going to just fight straight away, or do you have any plans?"

Wang Ming looked at me like I was an idiot and brought me into the room. The person who was poisoned actually sat up, and although he looked weak, he was clearly alive.

I went over to check his body and found that there was still some poison in his body, but it wasn't fatal. As time passed, the poison would slowly dissipate.

The poisoned person kneeled on the ground, thanking us and introducing himself, saying that it was the village manager, Carter. He also heard from the people in the village that we were involved in some things, so the snake will give it to us.

I heaved a sigh of relief, but all of this was finally done. I picked up the snake and observed it for a while before Wang Ming wrapped his arm around my shoulders and said: "We've spent quite a bit of money this time, but after we return, I'll need to properly ask Lee Zhiyong and the others what's going on."

The person who was previously very fierce towards us is now kind. Looks like I can ask myself some questions.

The corpse farm outside is passed down from generation to generation, just like how we used to have a moat, they just maintain it for a while, but they don't know what's inside, they only know that it can protect the village from outsiders.

The people here all came from different countries and their words were very complicated. As long as they were able to come here, the village would accept them into their village. Many people with ill intentions would die even if they came here.

Wang Ming nodded, saying that if we fell in there before, would we be poisoned?

Carter took a small bottle and said that the inside of the bottle was used to treat injuries. It had a very special effect on the poison in the water outside.

Now our situation does not tell us whether we have been poisoned or not. When the body reacts, we will drink from the bottle.

The villagers were passionately thinking of letting us stay, but Wang Ming said that he still had something important to do, so the next time he comes, he'll stay here for a while. He hoped that Carter wouldn't reject him.

Actually, I am very clear on Wang Ming's intentions, that guy's character is not very good, he must have gone back to settle the score with Lee Zhiyong that fellow, the originally easy to earn money, was tampered with and almost died here.

There is an underground tunnel that leads directly through the forest and into the desert. We have to remember this place, we can just go in from here the next time we come.

When he returned, it was rather smooth and he did not encounter any major accidents.

Once Wang Ming returned, he immediately brought me to find Lee Zhiyong. Furthermore, he rushed to Lee Zhiyong's house, and didn't even make a phone call.

Now, Wang Ming wants to kill him. But we can't figure out what exactly happened, whether those three people went missing, or did they leave us behind on purpose. Everything requires Lee Zhiyong to be able to answer.
