NOVPUBChapter 930: 447 Yuejin_1 Chapter 930: 447 Yuejin_1 “Heaven practices virtue and kindness, it didn’t intend to harm you, so why add needless sins?”
Lexi Benz was no longer terrified as before, she confronted with a cold look, her attitude extremely arrogant.
“You’re supposedly the good one, and we’re all villains, is there any need to put on an act when it’s just us here?
Aren’t you tired?”
Lexi Benz didn’t back down, she broke away from Aubree Groove’s grasp and chased after it.
There was no trace of the little snake in the grass.
Lexi Benz was furious, “It got away.”
Just then, a white shadow darted out from the grass, coiling around Lexi Benz’s leg with lightning speed.
Lexi Benz first looked shocked and then turned white.
Shortly after, a piercing scream followed.
...
The snake quickly disappeared back into the grass.
Solene Moore and Maddy Spinter were stunned.
Solene Moore was the first to react, she rushed over to lend support to Lexi Benz.
“Are you okay?”
“What nonsense.” Lexi Benz’s face was getting paler.
“Am I going to die!?”
Aubree Groove shook her head, bent down to check her calf.
Lexi Benz was wearing a dress and underneath, a pair of thigh-high hosiery.
The bite mark was very clear.
“It’s not venomous, you won’t die.
It’s merely a skin injury.”
“Snakes are intelligent creatures.
When they sense danger, they attack proactively, particularly the mild-tempered Silver-ring Snake.”
No action, no death. 𝒏𝒐𝒗𝒑𝒖𝙗.𝒄𝒐𝒎
Lexi Benz was extremely embarrassed.
She snorted, “This is all because of you!
Who puts a feast in this godforsaken place?
If anything happens to us, you can’t escape the responsibility!”
“Benz, stop it.
What does this have to do with Ms.
Rinto?”
Aubree Groove pointed at a rock, “Sit down, let me treat your wound.”
Ultimately, Lexi Benz obliged and sat on the big rock as her wound was indeed painful.
Aubree Groove’s hands had torn Lexi’s nylons, revealing the wound.
The bite was shallow, only a little blood oozed out, but the surrounding area was quickly turning blue.
Aubree Groove glanced around, pulled out a humble-looking weed from a crack in the rock wall, and crushed it with her hands till it oozed water.
She then applied the crushed weed to the wound.
Lexi Benz quickly rejected, “What is this?”
“Knotweed, it’s remarkably effective for external injuries.”
Without waiting for a response, Aubree Groove applied the herb onto the wound, then tore a piece of fabric from her skirt and bandaged it.
“Benz, believe in Ms.
Rinto.
I’ve heard that she’s very good at medical treatments.”
“Who knows if she’s deliberately hurting me.” Lexi Benz grumbled.
Interestingly enough, shortly after the herb was applied, Lexi Benz didn’t feel pain in her wound anymore.
Aubree Groove looked over at Maddy Spinter, “What happened to your foot?”
Maddy Spinter pursed her lips, “I sprained it, I can’t walk.”
Aubree Groove squatted beside her, removed her shoe, and felt her ankle.
“Miss Spinter, how old are you?” Aubree Groove asked casually.
Maddy Spinter didn’t think much of it, she was hungry and tired, only wanting to get off the mountain soon.
She replied, “Sixteen, why are you asking this?”
“I heard that Miss Spinter’s Auntie is getting married soon?”
Maddy Spinter squinted her eyes at once, “Why are you fond of gossip too?”
Aubree Groove was bowing her head, then a faint sound “click” was heard.
Maddy Spinter was surprised, and she widened her eyes.
“Ah!”piercing screams echoed through the sky.
“Done.” Aubree Groove stood up gracefully, “You can try moving your foot.”
Maddy Spinter glared at Aubree Groove in anger, “What did you do?
It hurt so badly.”
However, when she instinctively stood up, she was surprised to find that she could walk.
Other than a little soreness in her ankle, it didn’t affect her walking at all.
Solene Moore was looking at Aubree Groove in surprise, as she was a little disheveled with dust on her skirt hem, some tear marks, and messy hair – but none of these reduced her beautiful and ethereal demeanor.
Maddy Spinter pursed her lips, saying thanks in a very low voice.
Aubree Groove glanced at the horizon, “It’s getting dark, we should get off this mountain.”
During winter, the days are short and the nights long.
Before five, the sun had set.
Solene Moore asked, “do you know the way down?”
Aubree Groove nodded, looking at Lexi Benz, “Ms.
Benz, can you walk?”
Lexi Benz said defiantly, “Of course I can.”
“That’s good.
Stay close to me.” Aubree Groove turned and walked away.
Maddy Spinter quickly followed, staying close behind Aubree Groove.
Lexi Benz, assisted by Solene Moore, limped after them.
