180: Chapter 180: Detoxification 180: Chapter 180: Detoxification Originally, on the inner side of Kou Jing’s thigh, there was a very obvious bite mark from a poisonous snake.
At that time, the wound had already turned dark blue, clearly indicating that the venom was spreading into her blood.
Ye Haochuan shook his head, his voice grave as he said, “Doctor Kou, how did you get bitten by a poisonous snake?”
“What does it matter to you if I was bitten by a poisonous snake?
Mind your own business!” Kou Jing responded defiantly, though her voice lacked conviction.
My goodness, she’s on the brink of death, and she still has the mood to be angry with me?
Is it really necessary?
Ye Haochuan was somewhat speechless, but seeing such a charming girl bitten by a poisonous snake and doing nothing about it made him somewhat sympathetic.
However, he also knew that given Kou Jing’s personality, she would likely resist any help he offered.
With that in mind, it might be better to take a harsher approach to force her compliance.
Thinking this, Ye Haochuan put on a fierce look and said, “You don’t want my help, huh?
Fine, then I’ll just slowly wait for you to die from the poison…”
Watching him shake his head and feign bliss, Kou Jing was so angry she was practically smoking, and she scolded, “You’re inhuman…”
“Oh, you’ve seen through my true nature so quickly, huh?
Not bad, not bad,” Ye Haochuan chuckled devilishly, sitting down on a moss-covered rock nearby, looking completely relaxed.
The more Kou Jing listened, the more her scalp tingled.
This freak, not even letting her die in peace, why doesn’t lightning strike him dead, this bastard?
As he observed her grinding her teeth yet conflicted, Ye Haochuan found it incredibly amusing and continued to bluff her aggressively, but unexpectedly, she still didn’t fall for it, maintaining a defiant attitude even in face of doom.
Alas, he really was at a loss with this woman!
Seeing the poison starting to spread through her bloodstream from the wound, Ye Haochuan had to change tactics, his voice softening as he said, “All right, Doctor Kou, I admit defeat.
I apologize, it was my fault.
Don’t worry, as long as you let me help you, afterwards, you can kill or flay me, however you wish, okay?”
For him, saying this was just a temporary expedient, everything else would be discussed after saving her life.
In fact, Kou Jing wasn’t truly determined to be angry with him forever; she was just too upset.
It was all just a girl’s pride at play.
So, when he softened his tone, Kou Jing no longer persisted.
Seeing her not resisting any longer, Ye Haochuan breathed a slight sigh of relief and tried squatting down.
Ye Haochuan tore open the fabric of her pants.
Sadly, his hand had been a bit too forceful.
“You…” Kou Jing was mortified to death, was that intentional?
Fearing he might have angered her, Ye Haochuan quickly tried to appease her, saying hurriedly, “Sorry, sorry, I was too forceful just now, far too forceful…”
Kou Jing gave him a fierce glare, but she ultimately swallowed her anger.
But she misunderstood him at this moment; Ye Haochuan really wasn’t in the mood to admire her.
Because he noticed that the venom had begun to seep into the blood, and if emergency measures were not taken soon, Doctor Kou’s life would be in great danger.
Without further thought, Ye Haochuan quickly tapped several acupoints on Kou Jing’s thigh to block the venom from traveling through the venous blood back to the heart.
Then he lowered his head, preparing to suck out the venom with his mouth.
“Ah, what are you doing?” Kou Jing was terrified, backing away repeatedly.
“Doctor Kou, the venom has already seeped into the blood in small amounts, but the venous pathways have been blocked by my acupoint tapping.
Now, I need to suck out the venom from the wound first, and then deal with the small amount that has entered the blood…”
Listening to his extremely serious explanation, Kou Jing finally came around.
Seeing her frowning, Ye Haochuan urged urgently, “Doctor Kou, don’t hesitate any longer.
If the venom reaches the heart through the venous channel, even gods won’t be able to save you.”
Ye Haochuan said no more and began the process of detoxification.
Once, twice, three times…
A full minute passed, and Ye Haochuan could clearly see that the dark blue coloring at the wound had begun to fade, appearing as if the venom had been almost completely cleared.
Now, the only thing left to clean up was the small amount of venom that had seeped into the blood vessels.
Immediately, he concentrated the Longevity True Qi in his dantian to his palm, then, using Perspective Eyes, located the position of the venom in the blood vessels of the thigh, and covered it up.
