A very large red snake, looking in their direction with its neck raised, was literally as thick as a man's arm.
And by colour, it is a highly venomous snake.
Alina's heart was already in her throat, she had always been afraid of such slippery things. Eels and loaches were something she never ate, just because the size was scary to look at.
Yet now, this thing just looked at her.
Her heart was already leaping to her throat.
The man's warm palm was still on her shoulder, and at the moment both of their minds were rummaging for knowledge of such creatures.
The answer they get is that it will chase people.
The two looked at each other, Chester, "Abby."
Alina's mind was now blank, the sound of soughing on the ground was so creepy to hear.
Before she could react, Alina was awake the moment he was thrown into the car.
"No!" A hysterical shout resonated through the mountains.
As she watched Chester throw her into the car with one hand while the other was bitten by the large snake, Alina's heart clenched.
Ronan, who was driving, was startled by Alina's hysterical scream.
Turning back, he saw the big red snake biting on Chester's finger, and in just an instant, Ronan reacted.
Ronan had gotten out of the car, and with a wooden stick in his hand from who knows where, he smashed it hard on the head the big snake...
In an instant, it released Chester's fingers, blood flowed like water. Alina tore off the hem of her skirt.
Grabbing Caleb's wrist with one hand, she forcefully wrapped the edge of her skirt around Caleb's wrist, using her mouth instinctively to stop the spread of the venom.
"No, no." The skirt is too short and doesn't seem to be enough.
Or, perhaps, it was that in Alina's mind, this was not enough to stop the venom, and with one ruthless bite, she put Chester's finger into her mouth.
"Abby, don't." Chester was about to avoid it, yet his consciousness was now lax.
Alina did not know what to do.
Ronan got the big snake dead as fast as he could, then threw it in the trunk and turned around the car, hurrying down the hill.
The original path to Emma was put on hold by tacit agreement.
"Abby."
Alina spat out several mouthfuls of poisoned blood, yet it still didn't seem to be enough, she was trembling with fear.
She was afraid of what the venom would do to Chester.
Alina's heart was choking badly.
"Don't sleep, stay awake." Alina said pleadingly to Chester, just hoping he would be well at this time.
Ronanl's ca was already at its fastest speed.
Yet it still didn't seem to be enough for Alina.
Almost tearing her skirt completely, she wrapped Caleb's wrists up.
"It'll be fine, it'll be fine." Alina told herself in her heart, over and over again, yet when she saw Chester's mental condition.
It was clear how poisonous the snake was, and in no time, Chester's hand was swollen.
These hands had given her endless reassurance and warmth.
"Chester, don't sleep." The moment she watched Chester close his eyes, Alina's heart gripped together even more.
"Ronan, hurry up."
Watching Chester close his eyes, Alina was completely panicked.
