Chapter 8: Zhao Xiulan saves lives

Zhao Xiulan didn't expect Wu Jinhua to repay her. She couldn't bear to see a life wither away in front of her.

In the end times, she had seen too many such scenes. Who wasn't striving to survive?

It was precisely because of experiencing the end times that Zhao Xiulan understood the preciousness of life.

Since she could save others, Zhao Xiulan would definitely spare no effort to help.

In order to cope with the coming of the end times, Zhao Xiulan not only hoarded a large amount of supplies, but also learned some basic medical and health knowledge before the end times, so that she could help treat herself or her companions if they were injured in the future.

She also knew some self-rescue methods after being bitten by a snake.

After hearing Wu Jinhua's words, Zhao Xiulan nodded and quickly went to where Gou Dan was.

Gou Dan had been bitten by a snake on the ankle. Zhao Xiulan glanced around and saw some vines, so she tore one off and tied it above the joint of Gou Dan's thigh to stop the venom from spreading through the blood vessels and worsening the situation.

Then Zhao Xiulan quickly checked Gou Dan's wound to make sure there were no snake fangs left inside, and then she forcefully squeezed out the black blood from the wound.

"Get me some water to drink and prepare some for me." Zhao Xiulan called out.

Someone nearby quickly brought some water, and after receiving it, Zhao Xiulan kept rinsing the wound. After almost finishing rinsing, Zhao Xiulan took out a Jidesheng snake medicine pill from her space and fed it to Gou Dan when no one was paying attention.

Fortunately, there was a large reserve of medicine in her space, otherwise she really couldn't imagine the situation today.

After all this, Zhao Xiulan was sweating on her back due to being too focused.

After a while, Gou Dan was fine.

Because of the timely treatment, Gou Dan, who had fainted, gradually woke up, and his lips were no longer as black as before, looking much better.

Saving Gou Dan made the onlookers look at Zhao Xiulan with a bit more respect and admiration.

As soon as Wu Jinhua saw Gou Dan wake up, she immediately hugged him and burst into tears, "Gou Dan... my dear baby, thank goodness you're okay. If anything happened to you, how could I go on..."

Gou Dan was obviously also quite scared by the incident, and he cried while hugging Wu Jinhua.

After crying, Wu Jinhua thought of the person who saved her son's life and was about to kneel down to Zhao Xiulan, "Xiulan, if it weren't for you today, Gou Dan would have lost his life. I will always remember your kindness. Thank you so much!"

Zhao Xiulan quickly pulled Wu Jinhua up and said, "Auntie, you're too kind. We are all part of the same team, helping each other is what we should do as fellow villagers. I just did what I could, so please don't worry about it. I believe that if my family encounters difficulties in the future, you will definitely lend a helping hand when you see it!"

After hearing Zhao Xiulan's words, the crowd not only admired her abilities, being able to handle snake venom, but more importantly, her good character and lack of seeking credit.

To be able to do this at such a young age was truly commendable.

So one by one, they praised Zhao Xiulan, truly admiring her.

After hearing Zhao Xiulan's words, Wu Jinhua was moved, but still kept Zhao Xiulan's kindness in mind.

She couldn't just let it go when someone said it was nothing! She had to repay the kindness! Wu Jinhua also knew that with Zhao Xiulan having a stepmother at home, life was not easy for her. She owed Zhao Xiulan such a great kindness, so if anyone dared to bully Zhao Xiulan in the future, she would definitely be the first to stand up and help her.
