Chapter 103: Be a Yellow Sparrow (1st Update)
A swoop Hu Lai sneaked into the woods below, and for safety, Hu Lai flew directly into a dense tree trunk and stopped, using the dense branches and leaves to cover himself.
After standing firm on the branches, Hu Lai hurriedly took a general look around to make sure that there was nothing threatening him, and then turned his gaze downward.
Ling appreciated Hu Lai's vigilant behavior, although it could replace Hu Lai's eyes, but it wanted to see Hu Lai use his own ability to ensure his own safety.
"Spirit, as you said, this is really a python, but it's far worse than the one we last saw." Hu Lai saw the fast-moving python below at a glance, and said to Ling in his heart.
"This python seems to have caught its prey, and it didn't take long to swallow it, so it must have been trying to find a place to digest it." Spirit said.
Hu Lai took a closer look at the python's body, and found that the middle part of the python was protruding high, which should have just been eaten, just like Ling said.
Most snakes will choose to digest immediately after eating, and few will store them and digest them after a while, and they have many ways to digest them, the most common is to crawl on the ground, especially on uneven ground.
Although the skin of the snake's abdomen is relatively delicate where there is scale armor, it is still difficult to cut through ordinary objects, so crawling on uneven ground is the first choice of many snakes, and it is also very helpful for snake consumption.
There are also other alternative methods, such as swallowing something too large, they will choose to wrap it around the trunk of a tree, or wrap it around something to help them digest it, which will reduce the damage to their body from the object they swallow.
The mouth of the snake can be greatly expanded, but their body is not as powerful as the mouth, all some snakes, after swallowing large objects, will cause the body to crack, at this time they can only choose to spit out or use external force to help themselves digest, and entanglement of the trunk is their most commonly used.
The python in front of him should have swallowed a larger object, which will be busy digesting, using the most common crawling friction method to help itself digest.
"What does it eat? How do you hold its belly so high? Hu Lai asked, staring at the python below.
The python below is about three meters long, about the thickness of a human calf, but the center of its body is much thicker than the adult or human thigh, which shows that it should be a very large animal.
"It's a little lamb, it should be like a nearby villager who accidentally ran into this wood, and was picked up by this python." Spirit replied.
After listening to Ling's explanation, Hu Lai lost interest in the python and was about to fly away from here, but his keen sense of hearing allowed Hu Lai to catch a trace of abnormality.
"Spirit, I suddenly felt a very dangerous aura around here." Hu Lai said to the spirit.
"Do you finally feel it? You're very advanced, but don't worry, we're not in danger, the guys you feel are coming for the python below, and it's when I noticed this that I didn't panic to let you go. The spirit said appreciatively.
As soon as Ling's words fell, Hu Lai saw a pair of huge wings suddenly flapping a few times on the trunk of a tree more than ten meters away.
After a closer look, Hu Lai found that it was an owl, this owl was the size of an old hen, very large, and two cat-like eyes were staring at the fast-moving python below.
"It's so dangerous that I didn't even find out just now." Hu Lai secretly said in his heart, and at the same time, he was secretly surprised by the profound hidden methods of the animal world, if the other party didn't want to expose it, it would be difficult for him to find out at all.
Then Hu Lai looked around carefully, and this time after careful inspection, Hu Lai saw a total of four owls, each of which was bigger than an ordinary old hen, and I am afraid that the size of the wings stretched out was comparable to the body of a child.
Seeing such a huge owl, Hu Lai at this time did not doubt what the old people said before, that an eagle bigger than an owl can take away a baby that is not much older, and even a newborn lamb can take away an owl that is so big, let alone an eagle.
"How do we do it?" Hu Lai asked Lingdao, at this time accidentally found a few owls, although they were not hostile to themselves at this time, but if they moved around at will, disturbing the python, no one can say whether these owls will seek revenge on themselves.
"Find a way to keep up with this snake, some pythons like to hide some mountain python blood in the hole, in order to commemorate their own achievements or to threaten their own kind, and mountain python blood is also very good for the baby snakes that have just hatched for a long time, which can strengthen their physique and quickly grow their bodies." Ling said to Hu.
Hu Lai heard Ling say this, and suddenly came to the spirit, the mountain python blood is a little easier to find than the Four Realms Flower and the Extreme Spirit Flower, but if you want to find it all at once, it is obviously not so easy, if it is really as the spirit said, it will greatly reduce the time for yourself to look for it.
But now there are four owls around me, and if you act rashly, who knows what the consequences will be, you must know that sparrows are also owls very hungry things.
Moreover, in this wood, in addition to owls, there are many threats to the existence of sparrows, which are all factors that make Hu Lai worried.
"Do you need me to use my energy to summon my body to help?" Ling sensed Hu Lai's thoughts and asked.
Hu Lai shook the bird's head and said, "No, your energy is very precious, so it's better to save it for the most critical time, and this time we are going to stay outside for a while, so your ability must be kept sufficient." ”
Ling listened to Hu Lai's words and praised, "You are developing more and more in the direction I expect, yes, I will always be just your assistant, only by improving your own actual combat and response ability, can you maximize your own strength." ”
Although Hu Lai and Ling communicated a lot, for the outside world, only a short time had passed, and the python at this time was about to get out of Hu Lai's sight.
However, Hu Lai is not in a hurry, if he wants to follow the python, he does not need to see it all the time, that is the most stupid thing to do, not only will he expose himself to the eyes of many animals that threaten him, but also put himself in a dead end.
The wisest thing to do now is to keep an eye on one of the owls and then sneak after the python below without them noticing.
Although Hu Lai is now a sparrow, Hu Lai has now decided to make a yellow finch himself, the yellow finch behind the owl.
