347 was almost beaten
According to the snake charmer's guidance, Liu Wei walked outside the market town, inquiring about the news of the two-headed cobra along the way.
However, the villagers working in the fields did not seem to want to tell Liu Wei the right direction, so they kept it secret.
Liu Wei understands that in their hearts, the two-headed cobra is the embodiment of the main god, and the godhead is higher than the ordinary Indian cobra, and they don't want others to touch the main god in their hearts.
In the end, Liu Wei only spent a few dozen rupees to buy candy for children playing on the side of the road to eat, so that he could get a specific location.
This is an old yard, with more than a dozen bamboo houses lined up on both sides of the yard, and a spacious dam in the middle, which is not paved with cement, but is very neatly repaired.
Today happens to be a market town, so there are not many people living in the yard.
After Liu Wei walked in, he saw the two-headed eye snake he had been waiting for for a long time.
What he didn't expect was that the two-headed cobra was actually drinking milk!
Liu Wei flipped the lens to shoot it.
The body is less than half a meter long, the body is small, the scales are dark, and the back has the iconic Indian cobra pattern, like a normal cobra, the back is slightly flattened, and two snake heads grow from the position of the back pattern.
The head of the snake was lying on a plate at this time, licking the milk in the plate.
Milky milk.
Liu Wei said: "Brothers, milk is a relatively expensive food for local residents, and children here don't often drink it, but they use milk to feed this two-headed cobra, which is enough to see its image in the hearts of the locals!"
"Honestly, this snake is ugly!"
"Brother, people are the incarnation of the main god, you say that people are ugly, be careful to retaliate against you!"
"I'm sorry, I only believe in the gods of China!"
"Hahaha, you bastards, can you respect other people's customs?"
Liu Wei squatted down to shoot the double-headed cobra, which was very close to it, and it didn't seem to have a sense of crisis to intimidate Liu Wei, and continued to lick the milk.
Liu Wei found that its upper body could not stand up like a normal Indian-eyed snake.
"Brothers, I brought you to see it for two purposes, one is to meet this mutant species. Second, study its venom.
Some Russian media claim that the venom of the two-headed cobra can poison 20 adults and even an adult elephant, and I have some doubts about this!"
“????”
"What? elephants?"
"The fighting nation is bragging again!"
"Poisoning 20 adults is several times more poisonous than the silver krait!"
"Do you believe it? I don't believe it anyway!"
The audience all played a barrage of questions, and their thoughts were the same as Liu Wei's.
Liu Wei also doesn't believe in this exaggerated statement, "Brothers, the toxin of the Indian eye snake is a strong neurotoxin, I have given you science before, neurotoxin will mainly attack the heart, muscles, and nerves of the respiratory system, after being bitten, the wound will not be very painful, the toxin will block the connection between the organ and the nervous system, resulting in muscle paralysis, respiratory failure, and cardiac arrest."
After being bitten by an Indian cobra, there will be unsteady gait, weakness of the limbs, drooping head, drooping upper eyelids, salivation, nausea, vomiting, difficulty swallowing, slurred speech, etc., followed by quadriplegia, weak breathing, and self-suffocation.
In the end, he died of paralysis of the respiratory center and heart failure.
The interval between the bite and death ranges from 30 minutes to 30 hours.
The Indian cobra is also one of the four venomous snakes in India, second only to the Indian ring snake in the number of bites per year.
Now let's make an academic guess, will the toxins in the venom of the mutated two-headed cobra mutate due to the mutation of the body?
This is the main purpose for which I want to study this snake. ”
After speaking, Liu Wei took out the prepared poison cup from his backpack and prepared to take the poison.
Things didn't go smoothly, though.
Just as he was about to stretch out his hand, a black man came over scolding, pointed at Liu Wei and said something in Hindi that he didn't understand.
Liu Wei stood up, smiling, and explained in a friendly manner.
There was a language barrier between the two, and it was not clear at all, and Liu Wei saw anger on the man's face.
Subsequently, the villagers who were busy around the yard and had just returned from the market gathered around.
surrounded Liu Wei in the middle.
"Wang~"
Chubby felt the pressure, he thought that his master would be in danger, and barked.
Out of fear of the dogs, the villagers took a few steps back.
Liu Wei still asked politely, "Who can speak English?"
Standing up a young woman, with sallow skin and a somewhat cultured expression, stepped forward two steps, and the villagers stopped making noise one after another, and Liu Wei guessed that it might be a local teacher.
Liu Wei explained: "I am an expert in wildlife research, please convey to the villagers that I will not harm this cobra, I just want to take its venom for research!"
The woman shook her head and said, "No, it's a god in the hearts of the villagers, you can't reach out and touch it!"
", this Nima is too superstitious!"
"Terrible believers!"
"Forget it, forget it, Ah Wei, let's go!
"Foolish people!"
Liu Wei didn't want to give up, so he tried again, "I just need a little bit of venom, please help me explain it to them, I'm willing to give a certain amount of money in exchange!"
The woman turned to the villager next to her.
After hearing this, the villagers began to make noise again.
The woman shook her head at Liu Wei, but they still disagreed.
It's not about money.
It's a matter of faith.
At this point, the two-headed cobra, which had finished drinking milk, turned around and crawled out.
All the villagers spread out in both directions, leaving a path for it.
The villagers watched it slowly and reverently as it left.
Liu Wei wanted to catch up, but was stopped again.
Villagers, every word you say, Liu Wei's ears are about to be deaf.
Fortunately, he didn't understand, otherwise he wouldn't know what ugly things the villagers were saying to him.
In a moment, the two-headed cobra disappeared, presumably hiding and resting.
Only then did the villagers stop.
"Sorry, excuse me!" Liu Wei said sorry and came out of the yard, staring at him with vicious eyes.
Liu Wei shook his head, he also felt ridiculous.
As for it?
Just now the woman followed and said with a smile: "You are Chinese, right? On behalf of the local villagers, I apologize to you, the education level here is very backward, so people lack understanding of the natural world, in their eyes, that is the incarnation of the main god, you also see, the snake just now enjoyed the treatment of the main god here!"
Liu Wei breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and it was more comfortable to communicate with the people, "Has this snake been in the yard all along?"
The woman nodded, "It is moving around, it will crawl into the yard every day, and the villagers will give it food and milk!"
Liu Wei nodded, "That's right, the two-headed cobra has a very poor predatory ability, but if it goes on like this, it won't live long!"
"Shh The woman immediately made a gesture, "Be careful if they hear you, and they will scold you again!"
Liu Wei asked curiously: "Were they all scolding me just now?"
The woman lowered her head, unable to speak.
