Chapter 100: Into the Forest
After waiting for late at night, Ye Ren secretly packed his bags and prepared to sneak into the Amazon jungle.
Ye Ren didn't leave directly, but first sneaked into Urisisa's room, took out some dollars and put it next to her pillow, which can be regarded as his own explanation for deceiving her, and then quietly left this small village, which can no longer be small, and walked towards the dark jungle not far away.
In fact, it is not the same as what was filmed in the movie, now, the exterior of the Amazon jungle has actually been almost developed, and the vegetation of the jungle is not dense, because of the development of tourism and animal husbandry, agriculture, although there are departments trying their best to protect, but the vegetation of the Amazon jungle is still decreasing day after day, and it has never stopped, such as the outermost part of the Amazon jungle is actually not so particularly dangerous, Ye Ren has been walking for a long time, except for some small snakes and insects, he really hasn't seen any wild beasts, but he found a few tall tree houses built up, I don't know who lives inside。
But this situation began to slowly change as Ye Ren gradually deepened.
The first is the surrounding environment, although Ye Ren can't see the surroundings clearly because of the dark night, but with the moonlight, Ye Ren can still rely on his stronger vision than ordinary people to survey the surrounding environment, the most obvious point is that the traces of human activities such as tree houses around him have begun to become less and less.
Secondly, the denseness of the jungle began to increase little by little, and the trees grew very tall and straight, and the dense canopy that grew to absorb the blessings of the sun almost obscured all the moonlight, turning the world beneath the trees into an almost completely black world.
Ye Ren can imagine that even during the day, there will not be much direct sunlight under the canopy.
In the process of moving forward, Ye Ren finally encountered his first beast after entering the jungle, a python that was devouring the corpse of a rat.
"Hiss..."
The python felt the dangerous aura emanating from Ye Ren, and immediately spit out the corpse of the rat, its body coiled up and let out a threatening hissing sound, its body as thick as an adult's arm trembled slightly, and the muscles under the scales were on the verge of breaking out at any time, and it could instantly complete the action of pounce.
However, Ye Ren completely ignored the python's warning, in fact, such a small snake is almost no different from the one who delivers food in Ye Ren's eyes now.
Although there is hardly much light under the jungle, Ye Ren can still see the general outline of this python and its body surface characteristics with his vague vision, according to the body surface pattern of this python, Ye Ren can conclude that this should be a reticulated python, which is the longest python species that can grow in the world, and it can grow to more than ten meters if you do more, and there are also records on the Internet about reticulated pythons eating people, but obviously the one in front of Ye Ren is estimated to be not an adult, let alone more than ten meters, it is estimated that it has not even reached five meters, so Ye Ren walked directly towards this reticulated python。
Even if Ye Ren entered the Amazon jungle this time without carrying a weapon, with the powerful current brought by the electric eel's electric muscles, he could still put it to death.
"Shhh...... Whoosh!" The reticulated python sensed the danger, and the moment Ye Ren approached, its body coiled up and pounced on him instantly.
It's just that Ye Ren's sense is so keen, and he stretched out one hand and directly pinched the python's seven inches, making a "snap" sound.
Then, Ye Ren didn't wait for the reticulated python to struggle, he stretched out his other hand and grabbed its tail, then let go of the hand that was pinching it for seven inches, and instantly circled it with his arm, and then slammed it the big tree on the side, as if the reticulated python was thrown off as a whip, the hard trunk and the skeleton and head of the python collided together, making a dull "bang" sound, and some fallen leaves and small insects in the crown were shot down by Ye Ren.
After Ye Ren's volley, the joints of the reticulated python's whole body were basically dislocated, and the brain and internal organs were violently impacted, and he soon vomited blood and died.
"Looks like today's supper is snake meat. ”
After solving the reticulated python, Ye Ren lifted the snake corpse and looked at it, and nodded with satisfaction, since the last time he ate the black python that I don't know what breed it was, I don't know if it was the indescribable sweet taste, Ye Ren even increased his interest in snake meat.
After deciding to eat this reticulated python, Ye Ren found a bunch of dry branches, although there was very little dry firewood in this somewhat humid and stuffy rainforest, but Ye Ren still found some, and then lit the dried leaves with flint and steel, and a small bonfire slowly ignited, and the warm orange fire crackled from time to time, and at the same time dispersed the surrounding darkness and dampness little by little, so that a small light rose in this dark jungle.
After Ye Ren saw the firelight, he didn't know if it was because he could eat delicious food, his mood was also a lot better, he picked up the snake corpse and said to himself, "Next, as long as you skin and gut this snake, you can ......"
"Huh?"
Recalling what he had just said, Ye Ren found that he seemed to have forgotten something.
"I'll wipe it, I don't have a knife!" Slapping his head, Ye Ren suddenly thought of such a very strict question, he had classified the knife as to improve his combat effectiveness before, but only now did he react, how can he dissect a corpse without a knife? How to cut meat? Can this still be played happily?
"It's such a sad story..."
Ye Ren wiped his face, no wonder he always felt something wrong when he first used the flint, now that he thinks about it carefully, it is completely because he is not used to using the small iron piece that comes with the flint to make a fire, Ye Ren used to scrape directly with a knife, but this time because there is no knife, Ye Ren can only use the small iron piece given to scrape the spark, no wonder it is so uncomfortable.
"Forget it, I'll figure out the problem of knives tomorrow. Shaking his head, Ye Ren still did not give up the idea of barbecue, but placed it until tomorrow, and he found a rough stone to temporarily polish the small iron piece.
Soon, the small piece of iron used for the fire was sharpened out of a crooked edge by Ye Ren, although it was not very sharp, but Ye Ren still relied on his own foodie heart, disemboweling and skinning the reticulated python, and then wearing it with a branch, throwing it on the bonfire and slowly roasting it.
As the bonfire continued to beat, the snake meat began to sizzle, and the golden grease slowly seeped out of the snake meat, dripping onto the charcoal fire and making a snorting sound, and the enticing aroma of barbecue began to fill the surroundings.
