"Okay!" Li Jianshe looked at Li Xiangnan's back with a complicated expression, then quickly ran towards the Li family's old house.

As more and more people gathered around, discussions could be heard from time to time, with all kinds of things being said.

"Is Xiangnan's medical skills good enough? Has he treated snake bites before? Don't do something bad with good intentions! This is a life!"

"Yes, Nan Nan is good at studying, but curing illnesses and saving lives is no joke! What if..."

"It should be fine. Didn't we see Third Grandpa pass on the medical canon and golden needles to Xiangnan yesterday? His medical skills should be pretty good! I think they should be better than Second Uncle's!"

"It's so worrying. Why hasn't Fugui come back yet? I don't know where he and Fuqin went. Otherwise, we would have gone to find him and brought him back!"

"Oh, it's too late to come back. This guy surnamed Zhang has been bitten for more than ten minutes!"

"How about we ask Third Grandpa to go? Even though he hasn't treated patients for a long time, his medical skills should still be there..."

Li Xiangnan was not affected by the whispers around him, but Li Yuanbei, who was standing nearby to help, was not happy.

"Please be quiet for a moment! My eldest brother needs a stable environment for Brother Zhang to receive treatment!"

Although his words were polite, Li Yuanbei glared fiercely at the people around him who did not believe in Li Xiangnan, and his eyes seemed to be able to stab people.

When this girl was in the village, she was a smaller version of Zhu Qiuju, but there was no one she dared not confront!

Hearing her say this, even some of the older elders immediately fell silent and just stretched their heads to watch Li Xiangnan's actions.

Li Xiangnan remained calm and had already cut open Zhang Jingyang's trouser legs with scissors.

He put the medicine box aside, opened it, and lit a candle.

He was holding a cupping jar and burning the air inside. There were already three or four such cups placed next to him. From his actions, it was obvious that he was using high temperature sterilization.

After scalding the glass jar, he gently placed it on the soft cloth on the table.

He found a palm-sized scimitar from the medicine box, held it in his hand and burned it over the outer flame of the candle.

Every movement he made was calm and capable, not at all like the state of mind that one would expect at this age.

The people watching were all surprised.

Li Xiangnan ignored these glances and patted Zhang Jingyang, whose eyes drooped slightly.

"Brother Zhang, are you afraid of pain?"

"Ah?" Zhang Jingyang stared blankly, as if he had just understood what Li Xiangnan was going to ask. He opened his mouth and replied, "I'm very scared...ah!"

Before he could finish his words, the man screamed, his instep immediately arched, and his whole body curled up like a shrimp.

"Hold it!" Li Xiangnan shouted in a deep voice.

Wang Ergou and Li Tuanjie held Zhang Jingyang's legs tightly, and the corners of their mouths twitched.

"What are you doing..." Zhang Jingyang, who was in pain, immediately sobered up a lot. He propped up his hands from the stretcher and looked at his toes, and his eyes widened immediately.

The scimitar that Li Xiangnan had just burned had already cut open the small area on the back of his foot where he was bitten by the snake.

The tender red meat burst open and bleed profusely.

"Ouch!"

The people around were startled and almost instinctively took a step back, covering their mouths.

Li Yuanbei glanced at Zhang Jingyang's feet, then looked up at his elder brother's face, his eyes filled with admiration and curiosity. He quickly stepped forward and wiped the sweat off his forehead with his sleeve, then stood on tiptoe to look at the dirty blood that had already coagulated.

Zhang Jingyang's calf had been tied up with a cloth rope before, and Li Xiangnan just took another step and tied it up again.

At this moment, his feet were a strange dark red color, which was a sign of poor blood circulation.

After some of the poisonous blood was released, Li Xiangnan immediately burned the area where the cup was placed and squinted at the color of the blood inside.

After the strange blood clots inside flowed out, he began to use a machete to cut small areas of other acupuncture points on the legs, burned them, put on cupping glasses, and then observed the blood flowing out.

Now he wanted to determine whether the pit viper's venom had traveled up the bloodstream toward the heart and begun to form blood clots along the way.

"Xiao Li, can I still cure this?"

Zhang Jingyang was in so much pain that his head was covered in sweat, and his neck and forehead were full of blue veins.

"It's not a big problem!"

Li Xiangnan smiled at him.

"???"

But everyone who heard this suddenly widened their eyes.

Being bitten by a bitch is like being on the verge of death. How can this not be a big deal?

So confident?

People exchanged glances with each other and looked forward to Li Xiangnan's next performance.

Li Xiangnan squatted on the ground, looked at the clotted blood flowing out through the glass jar, and then knocked on the cupping jars on various parts of his calf.

Fortunately, it was near a ditch where there were many experienced villagers. They tied Zhang Jingyang's feet with strips of cloth as soon as he was bitten by the snake. Otherwise, this kid would have been hard to save even by gods.

"Boom!"

After observing for a while, Li Xiangnan took off the cupping jars one by one and looked at Li Dingxi who was squatting on the ground washing herbs.

"Little sister, are you done washing?"

When Li Xiangnan came from home just now, he and Li Yuanbei carried a snakeskin bag, which contained yellow paper bags filled with various herbs. These were the things he and his father often carried when they went from village to village in the past.

"Okay, big brother!" Li Dingxi handed the cleaned Chonglou to his big brother.

Li Xiangnan was also not vague. He quickly took out the mortar and mortar, picked the leaves of Paris polyphylla one by one, threw them into the mortar, mixed them with the rhizomes, and began to crush them.

This Paris polyphylla, also known as Seven-leafed Tripterygium wilfordii, can clear away heat and detoxify, reduce swelling and relieve pain, and calm wind and tranquilize the nerves. It is a very good Chinese medicinal material for treating snake bites.

After crushing it, apply it directly on the instep of Zhang Jingyang's feet with the slightly fragrant herbal juice.

"Hiss!" Feeling a little cool, Zhang Jingyang raised his head again and looked at his feet.

This time he could clearly feel the itching and numbness on the back of his foot, which was completely different from the intense burning pain he had just felt after being bitten by the snake.

Everyone was watching quietly. The mountain road was full of people, but there was complete silence, which was very strange.

"Dingxi, clean the mortar!"

But that was not the end. Li Xiangnan quickly asked Li Yuanbei and Li Dingxi to open all the medicine bags.

He took out a small scale the size of a palm, quickly took out the Chinese medicine from each bag, weighed it on the small scale, and then poured it into the mortar.

While he was doing this, many tribesmen suddenly looked behind him respectfully.

Li Dequan came behind Li Xiangnan accompanied by Li Jianshe without knowing when, waved gently to the people around him, and got behind him and looked at him with squinted eyes.

After Li Xiangnan had weighed all the Chinese medicinal materials, Li Dequan smiled, stroked his beard, and spoke with a sharp look in his eyes.

"Grandson, are you going to make Jishudan?"
