Chapter 42 The five-step snake bites
Li Qingyun had a good impression of the two soldiers, and explained carefully: "This kind of hunting dog is relatively common in the local area. The success rate of adult dogs in catching pheasants or hares alone is not bad. It takes some luck. These two puppies are raised by an old hunter. The ones that came out have been interbred with wild wolves in the mountains. They are more ferocious when they are adults. After a few generations of improvement, their temperament will become stable and they will be treasured by hunters. If these two were not sick at the beginning, the hunters would never sell them. "

The soldier driver was not good at words, nodded and said: "So it is, looking at this posture, it should be a lean type, good at speed, if the body can get up, it should not be weaker than some military dogs. Hehe, I used to be in the army. Had a dog there."

The three of them were chatting with interest, but they heard the terrified screams of the Chinese expedition team members from the hillside: "Snake, there are many snakes, not on my side, in the burning area below George. Translator, Li translation, come quickly. Translate for me."

When Li Qingyun heard it, he rushed forward a few steps. Seeing the Chinese expedition team members hanging on the mountainside, he pointed at George's location and shouted in horror.George is only three or four meters away from the burning area at this time, and if he falls further, he will enter the charred area.

Although Li Qingyun's eyes were good, he was too far away, and there were bushes and vines blocking him. He didn't know how many snakes there were, so he had to translate it directly according to the meaning of his words.

"George, stop now, there are snakes in the burning area below you, there are many snakes." Li Qingyun shouted loudly, and ran to the spot where the foreign expedition members focused.

"Ha, I have a lot of snake repellent on me, don't worry about it." George didn't take it seriously, and then mumbled, "Who knows if you damn Chinese people lied to me, I'm the first one. Reaching the meteorite's fall point, they must be able to find the meteorite, they must be jealous and want to sabotage my exploration work."

After speaking, he descended at a faster speed, relaxed the rope with both hands, kicked his legs back, and the natural swing of the rope made him land about a meter below, and then repeated this action, in the blink of an eye , to reach the burning area.

He was close, but he couldn't see what was under him, and the Chinese players were on the side, and the visual effect was better.

After confirming from Li Qingyun, a middle-aged foreign team member shouted nervously: "George, you'd better stop and check the situation before entering the burning area. Although snake repellent can drive away snakes, it will also irritate snakes. Some venomous snakes might attack you!"

George responded disapprovingly: "It's okay, I have arrived at the burning area safely. As long as I reach the center, it is possible to see meteorites. Listen, the alarm from the detector on my wrist is getting louder and louder, but the radiation Volumes are still very low and very safe."

Hearing the call, Li Qicun also came with a hunting dog. After Li Qingyun's explanation, he pondered: "The anti-snake medicines will definitely make snakes uncomfortable, and the medicinal powder from my family is no exception. However, we are in Qinglong Town. The snakes in this area seldom gather in large numbers, unless there is a special reason. For example, before the earthquake, they will flee in groups. If there are caves with a shady environment, they will enter their homes in groups. If there is a suitable temperature and light source, they will also gather together to bask in the sun. The sun. How can they come together on this shady hillside where there is no sun?"

Although he also doubted the words of the Chinese expedition team members, but when he saw the Chinese team members climbing up desperately and giving up exploring the burning area that was very close, he already believed in seven or eight points.

"George, you'd better come up too, the situation is a little wrong." Michelle and another team member also persuaded.

"Oh, I have found a broken stone, that meteorite is really nearby, haha, I will definitely find it. It falls from the sky, and it will definitely smash a hole, as long as I find this hole, I will ...ah, shit, ahhhhhhhhhhh, I stepped on a snake and it bit me...no god, how come there are so many snakes in here, my feet are all over...pull me up , hurry... ah, help..."

George suddenly frantically called for help, and the sharp scream could pierce people's ears. Except for the Chinese team member and George, no one knew how many snakes there were.

"Wang wang wang!" Gold coins and copper coins were like enemies, the hairs on their necks stood up, and they shouted frantically at the bottom of the hillside.

The big black hound "woo woo" straight back, feeling a huge threat. Only when there is no chance of winning, the hound will retreat. For example, when encountering a black bear or a tiger, the huge fear will frighten them to shit.

Li Qicun's face changed slightly, he took out a small cloth bag from the bag behind him, opened his mouth, and a pungent smell of traditional Chinese medicine immediately filled his mouth, and explained at the same time: "This is the snake repellent powder I prepared, if it angers the snakes , they will chase after them, and they must be dispersed with medicinal powder. Of course, most snakes will only chase a distance of three or five steps, and will not chase too far."

Members of the Chinese scientific expedition team also ran over to help and pulled George up with all his might.As soon as the screaming George was pulled up, Li Qicun shouted loudly: "You all retreat, check his wounds, and I'll see if there are any snakes chasing after him!"

Li Qingyun's original words were translated again, and he was more experienced in people bitten by poisonous snakes. He instructed everyone to retreat back, and was ready to escape at any time.

Li Qicun walked along the edge of the hillside and sprinkled a long line of snake repellent powder, and then he felt a little relieved and said: "Fortunately, there is no chase, there should be no large-scale angering the snake group. How is George's wound? How many times did he bite? Where? What did the snake that bit him look like?"

George cried out in pain, "Ouch", and told everyone that he had been bitten on the right heel and had a bite on the left calf.The snake that first bit him had a sharp mouth and large spots on its body that were dark brown.Later, the snake that bit him didn't see what it looked like, so he just ran for his life.

The crowd carried George to the place where the salute had just been released. The hare had already started roasting and had just left for a while, but fortunately there was no mush smell.However, Li Qicun couldn't care about the wild rabbit, Li Qingyun put the pheasant in his hand, ready to help him.

The wound on the calf was relatively flat, and the rows of small teeth were very shallow. At first glance, the Lord knew that it was made by a non-venomous snake.But the wound near the right heel had obvious two deep tooth marks, and the blood flowed nonstop. It even bit his shoe, and the fangs penetrated deep into the flesh.

"It's a little troublesome. Judging from the wound, it should be bitten by a five-step snake. Alas, everyone else wears leather boots, so why are you the only one wearing ordinary hiking shoes? Isn't this a bit of a bite!" Qi Cun complained, his hands He kept going, first wrapping a bandage around the crook of his leg a few times, and then using a hunting knife to make a small cross on the fangs wound.

Li Qingshan translated the past, and the middle-aged expert explained: "George feels that the climate here is a little hot and humid, and he has athlete's foot, so he wants to wear ordinary shoes when he first enters the mountains, and then change to high-top leather boots when he is deep in the mountains. When you enter the mountain, you are attacked by poisonous snakes.”

"Oh, God, what are you doing? Stop it, I'm dying of pain, why are you slicing my wound with a knife? I have anti-venom serum, and I don't need your native method to heal..." George was in pain and fear , clamoring for a partner to inject him with antivenom.

His partner shook his head and said helplessly: "George, I have to tell you a sorry thing. The poisonous snake that bit you is a pit viper, which is relatively rare. Our anti-venom can't cure this kind of snakebite. But for your safety, after the snake hunter treats you, if you don't feel well, we'll give you an injection."

Li Qingyun glared at George coldly and said, "If you don't want to die, cooperate honestly with the treatment. My uncle said that he is very good at treating such snake venom wounds and will save your life. Let me tell you personally, this kind of Snakes are called five-step snakes in our local area, and there are also rock dragons, which are very poisonous. More than half of the people who were sent to the hospital after being bitten died, and the people who were sent to my uncle's place, except for a few people who wasted too much time. , almost all cured."

"No, I don't believe you, what else are you doing? Michelle, give me an anti-venom injection, maybe call me and have a helicopter come and take me to the hospital!" George wanted to resist, but only The injured leg was held down, and he had to scream.

At this moment, Qi Cun took out a transparent glass utensil from his bag, like a cup for cupping.In other words, the whole is like a wide-mouthed syringe.

I put this glassware on the fire and baked it, and quickly pressed it on the cut wound, pressing it very tightly, and it was sucked in at once.

Michelle did not respond to George. Instead, she watched with interest and asked curiously, "Do you want to use this tool to suck out the snake's venom? However, the bite of the sharp-nose snake is deep, and the toxin spreads very quickly. This method is not very useful, isn't it? If you suck it with your mouth, the effect is better, right?"

Li Qingyun glanced at Michelle and replied angrily: "Beauty, in this situation, when there are other effective treatments, would you be willing to use your mouth to help him take drugs?"

"Well..." Michelle glared at Li Qingyun and stopped talking.When life and death are not at stake, teammates who have a general relationship with each other really need courage to make an intimate rescue method.

At this time, Qi Cun began to slowly pull the suction rod, and a lot of blood flowed out of the cross-shaped wound, gradually turning bright red.Qi Cun pulled out the glass blood-sucking device in time, rinsed the wound with clean water, and confirmed that all the blood came out. Then he took out a plastic bottle from the bag, and took out a piece of dark green ointment the size of a fingernail from it and applied it to the wound.

Strange to say, the wound that was still bleeding just now was smeared with green ointment, and the bleeding stopped.Qi Cun observed for a moment, then wrapped him with gauze, took out another bottle, and poured out two pills.

"This is a Chinese medicine pill that I made myself. Do you want to take it? After taking these two pills, it's basically fine. If you don't want to take it, you can wait until the emergency personnel from the hospital arrive."

Seven inches said, Li Qingyun helped translate.The tone of the two is very flat, basically it belongs to the kind of feeling that you can eat what you like, and you will fall down if you don't.

George didn't want to go down the mountain like this. When he saw that the wound was not bleeding, he already believed in the seven-inch medical technique, but his mouth was still hard and smelly. After taking the pill, he tilted his neck and said, "Two Chinese medicines is good? What are you kidding? If I'm poisoned, I'll sue you for murder!"
