Chapter 45

Far away from the police car, there was no one around.

This road was too desolate; apart from the moonlight, there wasn't even a street lamp. But Ai Xiaohai wanted exactly this effect.

He had long ago sent the sparrow to return to Yuechang Bamboo Sea to search for the Kunlun White-tailed Snake, hoping that there would be news when he arrived. That was the only chance to save Jiajia!

Long Spirit Pearl, Long Spirit Pearl, I hope the transformation of my body hasn't been in vain!

Taking a deep breath, Ai Xiaohai suddenly sprinted!

— The speed of a leopard!

He would run the 30 kilometers at the speed of a leopard!

A nimble figure dashed down the road like a bolt of lightning!

A cheetah can run at a speed of 60 kilometers per hour over long distances, and when chasing prey, it can reach an astonishing 113 kilometers per hour over short distances, faster than a car!

113 kilometers per hour, it was almost like flying. However, after a high-speed chase, the cheetah would be out of breath and exhausted.

But Ai Xiaohai's endurance, constantly replenished by the Long Spirit Pearl, far exceeded that of a cheetah!

He was flying! If there were a helicopter overhead, the person on the ground would seem to be flying!

What a terrifying speed?

Running at full speed!

The speed of a leopard!

At this moment, only one voice was circling in Ai Xiaohai's mind:

"Uncle, save me......"

......

"Dear, what a terrible road this is."

"Don't worry, the road is indeed rough, but in about an hour, I remember there's a small inn. We'll stay there for the night and continue tomorrow."

"We should get a new car."

"This car is pretty good, costing over 200,000. Last time, I raced with some friends on the highway, and even their BMWs couldn't keep up with me...... Hmm?"

"What's wrong, dear? Why did you stop the car?"

"I...... I must be seeing things. It looked like someone was running at night, running so fast, where did they go......"

"Don't scare me, I'm easily frightened......"

......

The wind whistled past his ears, and sweat had soaked his entire body.

He had seen a car just now, but Ai Xiaohai didn't stop for a moment. First, people might not be willing to stop in the middle of the night, and second, the road conditions were too poor for the car to drive fast.

The sparrow army appeared!

Their mission was to guide King Ai Xiaohai to the Bamboo Sea!

One sparrow after another appeared like a relay, becoming Ai Xiaohai's guiding light!

A few rabbits and wild dogs appeared, wanting to accompany the king to the Bamboo Sea, but the king's speed was too fast, and they soon fell behind.

"King, the Bamboo Sea is just ahead!"

"King, the sparrow army is searching for the White-tailed Snake!"

"King, keep going, we're almost there!"

The sparrows' consciousness kept transmitting to Ai Xiaohai's mind. Jiajia in the hospital would never know that countless animals were working just as hard as "Uncle" to save her life.

Entering the Bamboo Sea, Ai Xiaohai was drenched in sweat, as if he had just come out of a river.

The Bamboo Sea was a unique feature of Yuechang, with bamboo everywhere. The night wind blew, and the bamboo swayed. Unfortunately, Ai Xiaohai had no time to appreciate the beauty of the night.

"Report to the king, the White-tailed Snake has not been found yet."

Ai Xiaohai was getting anxious.

He had run 30 kilometers in just over 15 minutes, a speed that was simply astonishing. But where was the White-tailed Snake? Where was it?

He released a large amount of consciousness, and all the animals in the Bamboo Sea that he could summon appeared, but none knew where the White-tailed Snake was.

Just as Ai Xiaohai was about to give up, a rustling sound came from the nearby bamboo grove, and then a green snake appeared:

The Kunlun White-tailed Snake!

Ai Xiaohai almost jumped out of his skin. Oh God, the White-tailed Snake finally appeared! Oh God, the White-tailed Snake is really in the Bamboo Sea!

"Pay respects to the king." The White-tailed Snake was confused.

It had received a mental call, but seeing so many animals gathered, it didn't dare to appear and hid nearby. However, the snake king aura emitted by the Long Spirit Pearl made it dare not disobey, so it finally showed itself!

Ai Xiaohai didn't have time to ask why the White-tailed Snake was in the Bamboo Sea of Yuechang. Time was life!

On the way, he had already thought of a way to obtain the antivenom.

The process of extracting snake venom antivenom was too complex and time-consuming. To successfully extract snake venom antivenom, one must first select a healthy pony, which must pass a health inspection. The pony must be injected with a mixture of sterilized snake venom and sterile oil adjuvant, as well as a tetanus shot. Then, there are three stages of immunization: initial, basic, and hyper-immunization, each lasting two weeks.

Next, the extracted immune serum must be mixed with different dilutions of snake venom solution and tested on mice.

How long would this take? Jiajia only had a few hours left!

Ai Xiaohai had only one option: to take a risk—using himself as the test subject!

Let the Kunlun White-tailed Snake bite him, injecting the venom into his body!

He was the king of all snakes, and the Long Spirit Pearl in his body could heal him...... perhaps it could also detoxify...... as long as he didn't die from the venom, relying on the power of the Long Spirit Pearl to become immune to the White-tailed Snake's venom, his blood would be the best antivenom in the world. He could then extract it and inject it into Jiajia!

However, this was just a hypothesis.

Was the king of all snakes not afraid of venom? The queen snake was killed by Ai Xiaohai under the attack of many snakes. What if the Long Spirit Pearl could only heal but not detoxify? What if the Long Spirit Pearl couldn't neutralize the White-tailed Snake's venom and was instead neutralized by it? The outcome would be that Ai Xiaohai would die from the venom!

Ai Xiaohai couldn't afford to think about it. Compared to Jiajia, his body was stronger—after all, he had the Long Spirit Pearl to protect him!

There were too many "what-ifs" in the world!

"Bite me!" Ai Xiaohai gave the order in a deep voice.

The White-tailed Snake thought it had heard wrong. But Ai Xiaohai's command came again: "Bite me immediately!"

"King, I dare not, I dare not! I made a mistake, please punish me, King!" The White-tailed Snake said fearfully, thinking it had done something wrong and the king was deliberately saying the opposite to punish it.

Ai Xiaohai was at a loss, extending his arm to the White-tailed Snake: "Listen, if you bite me, you will not only be free from punishment but will also be rewarded!"

What was wrong with the king? The White-tailed Snake was puzzled, but as a snake, it couldn't think much. Since the king had given the order, it had no hesitation. It bit Ai Xiaohai's arm, and the venom instantly entered.

Ai Xiaohai stood up. In just a few seconds, the wound turned black, and then he felt a burning sensation. After a minute, his consciousness became blurry.

The snake venom was attacking Ai Xiaohai's body!

What a venomous snake! Even with Ai Xiaohai's body, the venom could spread so quickly! Thinking about it, he was lucky that the doctor had timely injected Jiajia with the viper antivenom, temporarily stopping the venom, or she wouldn't have waited for him to appear.

The venom continued to spread in Ai Xiaohai's body......

His body temperature began to rise rapidly......

Suddenly, a gentle force emanated from the Long Spirit Pearl, blocking the path of the venom. The spiritual energy devoured the venom, transmitting it back to the Long Spirit Pearl, and then quickly neutralizing it.

The burning sensation gradually subsided, and Ai Xiaohai's mind became clear again. The blackened wound was returning to its normal skin color. Finally, the venom completely disappeared, and the wound healed, leaving only a faint tooth mark on his arm.

The Long Spirit Pearl, having absorbed the venom, became quiet again.

Success! The powerful Long Spirit Pearl was not afraid of the White-tailed Snake's venom!

Ai Xiaohai was overjoyed and quickly took out the syringe he had brought from the hospital, drawing a syringe of blood from his body!

The antivenom—extracted from Ai Xiaohai's body—was the best cure for Jiajia!

Ha, the blood of the king of all snakes! Who knew, if Jiajia were injected with it, all snakes would avoid her in the future.

Looking at the White-tailed Snake, its body had also changed, its original green color now resembling a flawless emerald.

Ai Xiaohai immediately understood. The White-tailed Snake had bitten the snake king and gained many benefits. He thought, "Stay here for now. I'll send a pigeon to take you to another place tomorrow."

"Yes, I understand, King."

He would ask the White-tailed Snake how it got there later.

Holding the syringe filled with the life-saving antivenom, Ai Xiaohai didn't dare to stay and left immediately.

"Send off the king." A chorus of animal consciousness came from behind......

......

"Dear, we're not there yet."

"Almost, almost. Hey, I really saw someone running just now."

"Stop it, who runs in the middle of the night? Besides, who can run faster than a car?"

"True, maybe I was just seeing things...... Ah!"

"Dear, why did you stop the car again?"

"I saw that runner again! Really, really, running so fast! Help!"

......

Old Li and Xiao Song were wide-eyed and speechless.

The car had just been fixed, 40 minutes.

But...... but Ai Xiaohai was already back!

"Blood...... antivenom......" Ai Xiaohai, though strong, was almost exhausted after running 60 kilometers back and forth.

"You...... you......" Old Li didn't know what to say: "You ran 60 kilometers back and forth?"

"No." Ai Xiaohai quickly said: "I ran forward for a while and met my friend with the antivenom. He saw the news and was on his way to bring it to us."

Old Li and Xiao Song breathed a sigh of relief. Otherwise, this young man running 60 kilometers in such a short time would be more than human.
