Chapter 023: Tang Xiaoxiao Was Bitten by a Snake (,)
At the southwest border, the Fire Phoenix and its group of nine were carrying their own luggage and walking on the rugged mountain road.
Perhaps it was because the world was different, there was no terrain suitable for low-altitude landing near Lande Village, so Lin Chen and the others were only sent to the edge of the mountain.
If he wanted to reach Landes Stronghold, he could only rely on himself.
It had just rained, and the road was muddy. There were puddles and countless hidden quagmire piles. When everyone walked, their feet were deep and shallow, as if they were walking through a swamp.
Fortunately, Fire Phoenix and the others had been to Landes Village before and were familiar with the terrain. Although they did not move very fast, they did not encounter any trouble.
Lin Chen was the team doctor. He did not have much combat and vigilance experience. He was arranged to walk in the middle of the team and was protected by everyone.
However, he didn't just lower his head and hurry on as everyone thought. Instead, he kept turning his head and looking around.
He even turned his head more frequently than the members of the Fire Phoenix team who were in charge of keeping watch.
"What are you looking at?"
Tang Xiaoxiao, who was following behind Lin Chen, asked softly. Ever since they entered the forest, Lin Chen's head had not stopped. He had been looking left and right.
They had already traveled for two hours and crossed two mountains and countless hills. No matter how much they admired the scenery, they should be tired of it.
Lin Chen's gaze was still sweeping around as he replied softly,""Looking for herbs."
"Herbs that prevent mosquitoes?"
Tang Xiaoxiao asked curiously. They had been in here for so long, and the mosquitoes had never stopped harassing them, but Lin Chen did not say anything.
She thought that Lin Chen had already let go of the nervousness in front of the brigade building. It turned out that he had never given up on the idea of preventing mosquitoes along the way.
"Yes."
Lin Chen nodded lightly. Just as he was about to reply, his eyes suddenly fixed on a few long grasses that were already beginning to wither not far away.
"Found it."
The corners of Lin Chen's mouth curled up, and his voice also raised a little.
An Ran and the others who were walking in front turned their heads and looked at Lin Chen in confusion. They did not understand what he meant by suddenly saying this.
Lin Chen pointed at the few long grasses he saw and said,"Wormwood has the effect of repelling mosquitoes and insects. Tie it into a bundle and carry it on your body to prevent mosquito bites.”
"Are you sure these grasses can repel mosquitoes?”
Shen Lanni asked with a frown. Everyone knew that there were the most mosquitoes in the forest. Now, Lin Chen had the intention of tying a few withered grass into bundles for them to carry with them. Wouldn't that attract more mosquitoes?
"I'm sure."
Lin Chen nodded and said calmly,"If we collect some now, there will be no more mosquito bites on the road. If we spend the night in Landes Village, we can hang the wormwood on the bed to disperse the mosquitoes.”
The other members of the Fire Phoenix team did not speak. Instead, they looked at An Ran, who was at the front of the team, in confusion.
They also didn't believe that a few withered grass could disperse the mosquitoes, but if it was the captain's order, they would carry it out without hesitation.
An Ran sighed and looked at Lin Chen. Just as she was about to speak, Tang Xiaoxiao, who was standing behind Lin Chen, suddenly screamed in pain,""Ah ~~~"
Everyone's eyes immediately focused on Tang Xiaoxiao's face. Tang Xiaoxiao lowered her head and looked at her right leg.
There were two clear holes on her right calf. Two red beads of blood were slowly flowing out of the holes.
"It's a snake, a silver ring snake!"
Tian Guo stood behind Tang Xiaoxiao and pointed at a long snake that was more than a meter long. Its back was black and white, and it was swimming quickly.
All the Fire Phoenix members 'faces turned pale. They had gone through survival training in the wild and knew what kind of existence the silver ring snake was.
The fourth largest poisonous snake on land was extremely poisonous. For this kind of snake that was more than 1.2 meters long, the poison only took 40 minutes to take effect.
After being bitten by this kind of poisonous snake, one had to inject an anti-venom serum before the poison took effect. Otherwise, there was only death.
However, they had already been trekking in the mountains for two hours. Even if the base was to prepare the anti-venom serum, they would have to run out of the mountains with Tang Xiaoxiao in 40 minutes.
What should he do?
What should he do?
What should he do?
Other than Lin Chen, everyone's faces were pale as they racked their brains to think of a solution.
Tang Xiaoxiao also looked at the two small holes on her calf in horror. She was not afraid of sacrificing herself on the battlefield. To a soldier, that was a kind of glory.
However, if she died in the mouth of a snake, she would only feel aggrieved.
An Ran looked even more anxious. She was the captain of the Fire Phoenix. Since she had brought them out, she had to bring them back.
But now that she was in the dense forest, where was she going to find the antidote?
"Lin Chen, do you have any ideas?"
In desperation, An Ran had no choice but to ask Lin Chen, who was highly skilled in medicine.
After hearing Anran's words, the others also focused their attention on Lin Chen. He was their military doctor and Tang Xiaoxiao's only hope now.
However, when they saw Lin Chen's actions, they were all furious.
Lin Chen wasn't paying attention to Tang Xiaoxiao's injuries. Instead, he was looking around as if he was looking for herbs.
