Snakes generally do not attack people unless they are threatened. Liuzhuang entered the mountain this time only to check their living conditions, not to catch them, so after entering the breeding area of poisonous snakes, as soon as they saw those five-step snakes with pointed heads and brown and black backs slowly crawling around in the grass and rock crevices, Liuzhuang signaled everyone to slow down and stay away.

But around like this, Luo Han followed closely behind him and Guan Xuefeng, still made his scalp numb by these highly poisonous cartilage animals, his nerves were highly tense, and his hands holding the armrests of the wicker basket were also slightly sweaty.

Although I had seen snakes in the mountains behind the orphanage before, where is it dense, it is not an exaggeration to say that almost every dozens of steps, you can see one or two, and Luo Han even has a feeling of going to a snake's nest.

It took him nearly an hour to pass directly through the hinterland of one of the breeding areas, and then turn a small corner to the growing area of dense beans mentioned by Liuzhuang, a small ravine with babbling springs and rocks. However, when Liu Zhuang took Guan Xuefeng, Luo Han, and Liu Lintao to the corner, Liu Zhuang and Guan Xuefeng's faces changed at the same time.

Liu Zhuang remembered that it was indeed right, under the cliff valley in front, there was a large piece of dense flower beans, and two big trees that needed two adults to hug each other were attached, but under the dense flower beans, there was an adult dark brown five-step snake about four meters long lazily coiled at this moment, and the black and white scales were shining with the sunlight shining through the leaves, but it made Liu Zhuang and Guan Xuefeng feel chills in their hearts.

Before, the five-step snake I saw was at most 2 to 3 meters long, which was like the one in front of me, long and fat, but it was lazy and revealed an eerie chill.

In this case, where do you dare to cut that dense flower bean? The snake is quiet at the moment, but if it lingers by its side for a moment, and makes the gesture of cutting the stem with a knife, it will definitely see it as a provocation and attack immediately.

If you want to go down, you have to step on a few broken boulders to go down, and because of the height problem in the middle, you still need to jump, but the bottom of this ditch is all kinds of gravel, and there must be obvious sounds when jumping down, which will inevitably alarm this poisonous snake, but the position where it is entrenched happens to be the necessary foothold for the four of them to climb the opposite peak, and it is difficult to climb other places.

Do you want to go back the way you came?

Seeing the two stop together, Luo Han was very puzzled, and quietly pulled Guan Xuefeng's clothes: "What's wrong?" ”

Guan Xuefeng lowered his voice and pointed there: "See?" The plant near that snake is the dense flower bean. ”

Luo Han looked at it fixedly, and immediately gasped: "Then what should I do?" ”

"What else can I do? It depends on the uncle's decision, whether to catch it first and then release it, or return the same way. Damn, my dad and I have seen quite a few five-step snakes, but we haven't encountered such a big one. Could it be that this is their king? ”

"Huh?" Rohan was stunned. I was so lucky, the first time I entered the mountain, I bumped into the king of snakes?

Guan Xuefeng's words are not finished: "My uncle's snake catching skills are very high, so it stands to reason that he doesn't need to be afraid, but when he caught snakes in the past, he basically attacked from the back of snakes, and it was rare for him to face him head-on like now." Moreover, if you look at the position where it is entrenched, there is no road behind it, and there is no road for my uncle to detour. Such a situation is the most annoying and dangerous. ”

Liu Lintao, who had never said a word, suddenly took out a thick cheesecloth bag and a special long fire tong from the wicker frame behind him, with a long handle and a slightly arc-shaped clamp inward, which was obviously specially used to clamp snakes, and handed it to Liu Zhuang with a serious face: "Dad, here you go!" ”

Guan Xuefeng was stunned for a moment, and then rubbed his nose: "Brother Tao, do you really think ......?"

Such a big snake, don't say that he is not sure, even his father may not be sure.

Liu Lintao was expressionless: "Snake catcher, you can't retreat without fear!" You have to be afraid, wait and stay away! ”

It was the longest sentence he had said since he met Rohan. However, the organization is very clear.

Guan Xuefeng's mouth was immediately blocked unceremoniously, and his face was stupid.

Fortunately, he is also self-aware, and knows that with his own experience, it is not suitable to rush forward, otherwise I am afraid that it will only add to the chaos like last time.

Luo Han thought for a moment, but took a step forward and tentatively persuaded Liu Zhuang, who also had a serious face: "Uncle Liu, I know that with your skills, it shouldn't be a big problem to deal with this snake, but now after all, it is a closed forest area, and this snake seems to have a spirit surname, even if you catch it later, and then release it, maybe it will hold a grudge?" ”

Liu Zhuang frowned slightly, and glanced at him unhappily: "You mean to go back the same way?" There was a hint of disdain in his tone.

Luo Han hurriedly shook his head: "No, no, no, although I am not a snake catcher, I also know that no matter what I do, I can't be afraid." Once you are afraid and face the same thing again, the possibility of success will be greatly reduced. I just wanted to ask, is there any other way to get it out of the way? As long as you avoid facing it, don't make any grudges, and minimize the loss, everyone will be happy. ”

Liu Zhuang's eyes paused, but he still shook his head quickly: "No way!" We didn't have any live animals on our hands, and the snake was clearly full. Let's go down together, Tao'er, you come forward with me to deal with the snake, Feng'er, you are the backup, Xiao Luo had better stay away. If," he paused, "I mean, in the unlikely event that I am bitten by it, you will poison me at once, and carry me back quickly, without any lingering." Then Tao'er will lead the way! ”

Liu Lintao was stunned for a moment, and then nodded quickly, Guan Xuefeng opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but finally closed his mouth obediently.

Before going down, Liu Lintao took the wicker basket on Luo Han's back, saying that he was afraid that he would not be used to carrying such a heavy thing, Luo Han hesitated for a moment, and also accepted Liu Lintao's kindness.

First, slowly climb down the ravine from a few boulders. Because there are snakes in front of them, everyone's movements are quite gentle, Liu Zhuang, Liu Lintao, Guan Xuefeng often enter the mountain, the jump between the stones is as agile as a cat, if in normal times, Luo Han will definitely stop to appreciate their heroic posture, but at this moment can only be in addition to envy, that is, be careful, try not to make too much noise under your feet.

Fortunately, since that strange fall to the ground in the backyard of the Lingling, Rohan's lower plate has been extremely stable, slow or slow, but he has not stumbled and fallen.

In order not to startle the snake, Liu Zhuang specially chose a farther road down the valley, although it was relatively dangerous, but at least it would not be attacked by this poisonous snake that was likely to be the king of the five-step snake before the four of them could stand firmly.

Safely descending to the bottom of the ditch, still about ten steps away from the snake, Guan Xuefeng first pulled Luo Han's sleeve and told him to stop and protect himself in front of him, while Liu Zhuang and Liu Lintao continued to watch the snake's head move cautiously.

One-step...... 2 Steps...... Three-step ......

Just when Liuzhuang father and son took the seventh step and were only nearly two meters away from the snake body, Luo Han suddenly saw that the sharp snake head slowly turned in the direction of Liuzhuang father and son, and his heart suddenly tightened.

Does it sense someone?

In the biology class of junior high school, I learned that the snake is a typical myopic eye, and objects moving within one meter can be seen clearly, and it doesn't care about stationary objects, and although its hearing is weak, it can keenly feel the vibration from the ground.

Liu Zhuang's footsteps did not stop, but he just motioned for Liu Lintao to stretch forward his left hand holding the bamboo pole and quickly hit the gravel area in the upper left of the snake's body.

"Tuk Tuk ......"

Guan Xuefeng explained to Luo Han in a low voice in the back: "This is to see if you can scare the snake away." But I don't think it worked. ”

Sure enough, the five-step snake only slowly tilted its head to the left, but its body did not move.

However, at this time, Liu Zhuang had advanced to a distance of only a short step away from the snake's body, and when he saw that the snake's head had deviated to the left at an angle of nearly ninety degrees, his right hand holding the fire tongs suddenly attacked and went straight towards the snake's head.

Lightning fast!

Fast, and ruthless!

If Liuzhuang's previous snake catching methods are used, this shot will be successful nine times out of ten.

However, just as Luo Han, Liu Lintao, and Guan Xuefeng were secretly relieved when they saw that the jaws of the tongs were stuck in the neck of the five-step snake, a thin green snake suddenly opened its hideous mouth, jumped out of the rattan of the dense flower bean, and came straight into Liu Zhuang's eyes.

Soon, very fast!

It's lightning fast!

Liu Lintao was startled, and the bamboo pole in his right hand instinctively picked up the green shadow.

The pick was provoked, but the green snake also followed the strength of the bamboo pole and quickly pounced on Guan Xuefeng and Luo Han behind him.

"Ahh Guan Xuefeng exclaimed, his left hand covered his mouth violently, his body instinctively deviated to the left, and the sickle in his right hand blocked forward without thinking about it.

The block was blocked, but it was not completely blocked, but it just brushed the body of the green snake, which temporarily slowed down its momentum, but it still fiercely pounced towards Luo Han behind him.

"Watch out for ......!"

"Brother Luo......!"

Liu Lintao and Guan Xuefeng lost their voices and shouted.
