Chapter 182: A Narrow Encounter

It was the first time that Majesque had come face to face with such a large poisonous snake!

It's not that he hasn't encountered snakes bigger than this, not without exception lying in a hot casserole, covered with sauce, cut into sections, and made into red braised snake segments.

In addition, such a big snake was solemnly only seen in CCTV's "Animal World" program when I was a child.

As a southerner, Zhuang Zheng has long heard of the snake that crosses the mountain wind, and it can even be said that it is like thunder and famous.

In the south, there is a lot of folklore about this venomous snake, commonly known as the mountain wind, but the most famous is about its aggressiveness.

This is a kind of snake that eats even its own kind when it is hungry, usually eats birds and mice, and when it sees other snakes, it also eats, and when it is really hungry, it even eats other cobras of its own kind, which is really the big brother of snakes.

What's worse is that there is a traditional saying in the south that if you are unlucky enough to encounter a mountain wind in the wild during spawning, it is a life and death.

Because the mountain wind is not like most other snakes that will hide and flee when they see people, its territorial awareness is extremely strong, and it will attack the animals or humans that invade the territory mercilessly, and even chase out nine streets!

In the former book mountain, I solemnly saw a record of the king cobra, which is one of the most dangerous snakes in the world!

Its single bite can be quickly fatal.

As long as the prey is bitten, an average of 200-500 mg of venom can be injected, and the maximum venom secretion can even reach 7ml.

Bites often require large amounts of antivenom to fight the venom and stop the toxin from further damaging bodily functions.

It is also said that the venom injected by a king cobra can kill an adult Asian elephant within 3 hours.

Solemn now began to pray in his heart that he would not encounter a mountain wind during the spawning period.

Although on the night of the first day of camping, a bamboo leaf was killed in the camp.

But Zhu Yeqing and the king cobra in front of him were not at the same level at all, not to mention that there were many people at that time, let alone attacking people, the snake was scared and fainted.

Now it's different.

This is a narrow road encounter, the brave wins.

Either a snake bites a man, or a man kills a snake!

Killing a king cobra weighing five or six pounds, solemn has no experience......

To deal with such a thing as a snake, the instructor also said how to deal with this situation during the class.

The instructor advises all students that it is best not to hunt poisonous snakes unless they are forced to do so, and only when they are forced to eat, they should hunt and kill poisonous snakes, and they must use tools as much as possible, and never be heroes.

Because, if you are bitten by a snake in the wild, it is difficult to grasp the timing of treatment, although you can use first aid debridement to temporarily reduce the symptoms of poisoning, and you can even use some herbs such as lobelia, fragrant tea vegetables, and ghost needle grass to save your life.

However, in the absence of antivenom, once the time is delayed, it is still difficult to save a small life.

According to the temperament type of venomous snakes, they can usually be divided into strength, violent, timid, insidious, silly and airborne.

Of course, the strength type is a python, and it is a champion in strength, but its temperament is relatively docile, and it is easy not to attack humans.

The timid type is a poisonous snake like a silver ring and a gold ring, which runs when there is movement, and when it sees people, it does not take the initiative to attack, but to dodge first, not that you take the initiative to step on it, forcing it to be cornered, and it will not take the initiative to bite you.

The insidious type refers to the pit viper, the sharp-nosed snake, the most famous in the country is the five-step snake, this kind of snake generally likes to be coiled up and hide under the rotten leaves, the color is similar to the dead leaves, it is difficult to be found, this kind of snake once you step on it, it will take the initiative to stretch out its head and bite you, and the poison of the five-step snake is violent, the bitten life is not as good as death, it is the most poisonous snake to be guarded against.

As for the silly type of poisonous snakes, they are talking about vipers and soldering iron heads, generally speaking, they will not take the initiative to attack humans, but after being frightened, they will not want to flee like gold and silver rings, but coiled on the ground, putting on a posture of "you look at me to try", "look at you", do not run away, do not retreat, but do not take the initiative, and even sometimes, it can confront you for a whole hour without moving and not running, but due to the body structure, its front body is S-shaped, and the attack distance is short, so as long as you find it, do not use your hands to deal with it, it's basically hand-to-hand.

The airborne type is talking about bamboo leaf green, because it hangs on the tree for a long time, or stays in the bamboo forest, and only occasionally runs to the open space to wander, so when entering the dense woods or bamboo forest, try to use a tactical scarf to wrap your neck, use a towel if you don't have a scarf, and wear a hat well, which can greatly avoid being bitten.

This kind of snake, the teaching brigade often appeared before and after the barracks, solemnly tried to take a bath, encountered it on the way, and directly smashed it to death with a bucket.

However, among so many types, the most difficult to deal with is the violent type.

It is this king cobra that solemn is facing at this moment.

This violent snake has a bit of a Donquicte temper, and as soon as it gets close to it, or enters its territory, the creature is enraged as if it has been insulted, and then raises its head, swells its neck, and blows it whirring, making people feel creepy to look at.

Solemnly knows that this snake has the largest attack range among all venomous snakes, and it is the most ferocious, among which the violent cobra will also spray venom, which can reach two or three meters away, and can even cause blindness when sprayed to the eyeballs.

Now, Liu Ruiyong and Zhuang Yan are less than two meters away from the king cobra, and according to the knowledge in the theory class, if the attack range of the cobra and the king cobra is to bite someone, except for the venom spray, its dangerous range is the range of the body where it raises its head.

Now, this king cobra is so big that it lifts up a full half a meter, and solemnly can judge that as long as it does not go within half a meter, it will not be hit by a single blow.

It's just that now he and Liu Ruiyong are facing a dilemma.

Originally, to deal with a king cobra, if there was a wooden stick of more than one meter in the hand, it would be easy to level out.

But now the two of them are empty-handed, and even the flaming stick of the automatic rifle hangs horizontally above the Type 91 backpack.

Turn around and pick up a stick?

No!

Solemn knew that it would be easy to kill himself.

Snakes are short-sighted, 99.9 percent of snakes are, and they basically do not attack immobile objects.

Because the snake's eyes do not have eyelids that move up and down, and there is no transient membrane, the snake's two eyes cannot be closed, and it always has a pair of round eyes open day or night.

The lens of its eyeball is almost like a small round ball, and it cannot change its curvature, but can only image external objects on the retina by moving the lens slightly forward or backward.

Snakes are only suitable for seeing objects at close range, and they are blurry when they see distant objects, and there is no macula in the center of the retina of snake eyes, so their vision is very insensitive and extremely insensitive to motionless objects, almost blind, and the only thing they can see is only moving and shaking objects.

Therefore, as long as Zhuang Yan and Liu Ruiyong do not move, then the two of them are not in danger for the time being.

When encountering a king cobra in the wild, it is all about calmness and courage.

Escape?

Nor is it a way.

The instantaneous speed of the king cobra is enough to catch up with humans, not to mention the exhausted soldier with more than forty pounds of equipment on his back.

"You two don't move!" Even Luo Xiaoming issued a warning from seven or eight meters away.

Don't move?

Zhuang Zhuang suddenly felt that what Luo Xiaoming said was ......

Theoretically, it's okay not to move, but you see a five- or six-pound king cobra hissing and spitting snake hyacinth in front of you, and those eyes that shouldn't see you but keep staring at you, as if sweeping around you, how many people can really calm down?

"Who's going to get a tree!"

Luo Xiaoming immediately glanced around.

At this time, all the students were in good spirits, and they all set their eyes on the two unlucky bastards, Zhuang Yan and Liu Ruiyong.

"Squad leader, I'll go get a snake trap."

Wang Jie, who was the farthest away, began to slowly retreat.

The best tool for catching snakes in the wild is a snake trap fork.

Use a stick of about 1.5 meters, preferably with a fork at the top, and use a knife to cut off the excess branches and leaves, which is a natural snake trap fork.

In order to be safe, a vine is tied horizontally at both ends of the fork to increase the pressing force, and even a small snake cannot escape from under the fork.

All the students in Class 7 were still moving, and now only Wang Jie slowly retreated, four or five meters away from him, there was a pile of dead branches, and he took a fancy to one of them.

Everyone present held their breath for fear that the range of movement would be too great and attract the attention of that damn king cobra.

In fact, Zhuang Yan and Liu Ruiyong actually have a sharp weapon against king cobras, that is, sapper shovels.

Each cadet had a knife and a sapper shovel on him.

The military mountain knife is only about 40 centimeters long, and it is certainly not good to deal with the snake entrenched on the ground, but the sapper shovel is different, not only the shovel is sharp, and even used to cut trees, and the wooden handle is longer, if the snake dares to come, it can also be used to defend itself with a sapper shovel in desperation.

As long as the blade sweeps the snake body, no matter what kind of snake it is, as long as it is not a big python, it is enough to cut it into two pieces!

However, everyone's sapper shovel was now stuck in the back of the rucksack and could not reach for it.

At the last moment, an unexpected situation occurred.

"Goo-goo-goo-"

The pheasant on Liu Ruiyong's body suddenly crowed.

Maybe it didn't understand why these humans didn't move, and it was gently covered by Liu Ruiyong on the rucksack with a top cover along the way, and it was originally safe.

But at this critical moment, it suddenly came to the strength, and maybe saw the opportunity to escape?

"Lao Liu...... Your pet ......"

A sweat seeped from the brim of the stately hat and slid down the cheek.

Because the king cobra seemed to see the small coo that was constantly struggling and shaking on Liu Ruiyong's shoulder, and suddenly became alert, and the snake hyacinth hissed and vomited more happily.

It became interested in Xiao Gu.

However, Xiaogu is on Liu Ruiyong.

So......

"Squad leader......" Liu Ruiyong asked softly, "What should I do......"

"Cold salad!" Luo Xiaoming said in a low voice: "Don't move!" ”

Xiao Gu finally broke free from the top of the backpack and fell from Liu Ruiyong's backpack with a brush, with ropes still tied to his feet......

The already impatient king cobra swooped up!

"Be careful!"

Everyone immediately exclaimed.
