Hiss!
Accompanied by this mournful cry.
Just as the white viper was about to bite Yang Xin, Lin Xiao Tian's bullet struck the white viper's seven-inch mark on time.
It is said that when you hit a snake, you hit its seven-inch mark.
While the white viper's other parts were resilient, its seven-inch mark was the weakness of all snakes, their heart.
However, the white viper was not an ordinary snake. After being hit at the seven-inch mark, it could still move.
In just a moment, it disappeared into the forest.
"Are you okay?" Lin Xiao Tian walked up to Yang Xin.
"I'm fine..." Yang Xin looked still shaken.
Lin Xiao Tian looked at her ankle, which was severely sprained. There was a bloody gash on her calf, and blood was flowing out.
Lin Xiao Tian immediately administered a few acupuncture needles to stop the bleeding.
"Do you have bandages in your backpack?" Lin Xiao Tian asked.
Yang Xin nodded.
Lin Xiao Tian took her backpack, found the bandages, and wrapped Yang Xin's wound.
"What should I do? I can't walk now. Why don't you give me a few needles like you did with Aunt Xue, so I can lose the sense of pain too?"
"You can't. You're bleeding, and she wasn't. If you lose the sense of pain, you won't know if your wound splits open, and in severe cases, you might bleed out." Lin Xiao Tian didn't continue.
"Then what should I do? I... I'm scared..." Yang Xin started crying.
"I'll carry you down," Lin Xiao Tian sighed.
Yang Xin sniffled and looked at Lin Xiao Tian a bit shyly.
"This... won't it be too much trouble? Didn't you say we had to go down the mountain before it rains? What if we're too late?"
"We won't be."
"Alright then!"
Immediately after, Lin Xiao Tian carried Yang Xin on his back.
As he carried her on his back, Lin Xiao Tian realized that Yang Xin was quite well-endowed. She hadn't seemed like it in her previous attire.
However, compared to Qin Yu Xiang, she was still quite a bit behind.
But the future was promising.
Lin Xiao Tian suddenly felt quite ungentlemanly.
What he didn't know was that Yang Xin's face was already flushed red.
"Oh my god! Did it leave? Did it leave?" Yang Lin hid beside Lin Xiao Tian nervously.
"It's gone. It probably won't come back."
"Didn't you say the white viper only becomes aggressive when it rains? Why is it so aggressive now?"
"It gets aggressive before rain too, but not to this extent. I think something must have attracted it."
"What attracted it?" Yang Lin immediately asked.
"The white viper is also known as the white dragon, a very spiritual creature. Legend has it that they need the blood of virgin boys and girls to be fed if they want to transform into dragons. I think it sensed something, which is why it risked coming over. Of course, we've fought it before, and it knows we're not its match, so it dared to attack us."
Yang Lin made an "oh" sound.
Then, he looked at Yang Xin strangely.
"Tsk! Yang Xin, you're pathetic. You're so old and a man has never touched you."
Yang Xin's face turned red upon hearing that.
Yang Lin was actually right.
Due to her strict upbringing, she had always been restrained in her relationships, and she hadn't had a boyfriend in years.
"Yang Lin! Shut up! No one would think you're mute if you didn't speak!"
"Old maid!"
"Ah..."
Yang Xin swung her arms, wanting to hit Yang Lin, but he dodged.
In the next period, Lin Xiao Tian carried the siblings through the forest and soon arrived at the foot of the mountain.
It was already close to nine o'clock. Lin Xiao Tian told them to find a place to stay in the village and then went back into the mountains himself.
"Wait, didn't you say it's dangerous to go into the mountains when it's raining?" Yang Xin called out to him.
"It's not dangerous for me alone."
"What do you mean?" Yang Xin didn't understand.
But by then, Lin Xiao Tian had already entered the forest.
The siblings stood there for a while. Just then, some villagers came by.
"Who are you?"
The speaker was Li Er Niu from the village, who also helped Lin Xiao Tian with his fishpond. He had just finished a cart of fish and happened to meet them.
"Hello, we're here for tourism. But as you can see, it's about to rain. Could you please help us find a place to shelter from the rain?" Yang Xin said politely.
Li Er Niu scratched his head, looking hesitant.
These two were strangers, and they were bleeding. What if they were bad people? Wouldn't he be inviting trouble?
He was a bachelor who had never even touched a woman; he couldn't die here.
"How about this! I'll take you to the village chief?" Li Er Niu prepared to pass the responsibility to Li De Ping.
Seeing this, Yang Lin walked up to Li Er Niu.
"Sir, could you make an exception?"
A wad of cash appeared in Yang Lin's hand. Li Er Niu's eyes lit up at the sight of the banknotes.
"No problem, no problem. Follow me."
Supported by Yang Lin, they arrived at Li Er Niu's house.
Li Er Niu's house was a simple mud hut with a thatched roof that even had holes. The interior was dark.
The siblings hesitated and ultimately did not go in.
"Do you have any other places to stay around here?" Yang Lin handed the cash back to Li Er Niu.
"No, this is the best I have."
"Alright then!" Yang Lin had no choice.
Yang Xin, however, was less fussy and casually asked.
"Sir, do you know someone named Lin Xiao Tian?"
"Xiao Tian? How could I not know Xiao Tian!" Li Er Niu became enthusiastic.
Just then, with a flash of lightning, heavy rain poured down.
Yang Xin looked down at her watch. It was exactly nine o'clock.
...
Meanwhile, after going up the mountain, Lin Xiao Tian headed straight for where he had parted ways with Aunt Xue.
He believed that with Aunt Xue's experience, she should be fine. And such a large fish, she wouldn't have gone far and would likely find a place to shelter from the rain.
Lin Xiao Tian planned to find her and bring her down the mountain as well.
After all, it was a human life. Since he had seen it, he couldn't just ignore it, lest he be unworthy of being a doctor.
Indeed, when Lin Xiao Tian arrived at the previous spot, Aunt Xue had not gone far and had found a place to shelter from the rain.
Aunt Xue had even set up a makeshift tent, leaning against a small, wind-worn cave, and even started a fire.
Lin Xiao Tian remembered she had no equipment and must have started the fire using primitive methods.
Lin Xiao Tian walked up to the tent, about to call out to Aunt Xue. However, as he approached, he was stunned by what he saw.
Aunt Xue was in the process of undressing, and a large expanse of fair skin was revealed right before Lin Xiao Tian's eyes.
She was lifting her clothes from the bottom up, and Aunt Xue wasn't wearing a bra. Lin Xiao Tian's eyes were glued to the scene.
By the time Lin Xiao Tian recovered, Aunt Xue had already finished undressing.
The situation became inexplicably awkward.
They looked at each other, and Aunt Xue was the first to exclaim.
"Ah..."
