Chapter 316: Hell Tenderness (2)
It was already the second half of the night, Mo Xiaosheng looked at Jin Yaqin who was smiling sweetly in his sleep, and he was very helpless. He doesn't know Jin Yaqin's true identity, but no matter who Jin Yaqin is? At least now they are comrades-in-arms who fight side by side, partners in life and death.
He sighed, and let himself stop thinking and close his eyes. What will tomorrow bring? No one knows that he has to give himself enough energy and physical strength to deal with the crises and dangers that will arise tomorrow.
A faint fishy smell swept into the cave with the wind, Mo Xiaosheng opened his eyes vigilantly, and grabbed the hunting knife that was placed beside him. This fishy smell, this fishy smell, Mo Xiaosheng thought of a terrifying animal.
He gently pushed Jin Yaqin awake. Jin Yaqin looked at Mo Xiaosheng sleepily, and said shyly: "I'm sorry, I slept too soundly, what time is it?" ”
Mo Xiaosheng stretched out a finger, put it in front of his mouth, and gently shushed, staring closely at the entrance of the cave.
His emotions woke up the sleepy Jin Yaqin, who reacted quickly, threw away the coat covering her body, pulled out her Oriental sword, and half-knelt on the ground. Holding the handle of the Toyo sword with both hands, the blade is erected on the top of the chest, and it instantly enters a combat state, and the movements are coherent and perfect in one go.
She sniffed, took the smell in the air, quickly identified and analyzed, and whispered, "It's the smell of a large reptile like a python." ”
She frowned slightly, and said suspiciously: "But I feel very strange, although it is already the third month of the lunar calendar, it is the season of revival of snakes and insects, but in the bitter cold land of the northeast, the ice and snow have not yet melted, and animals such as snakes and insects should still be hibernating, and they should not come out." Besides, the temperature in the Northeast is low, which is not suitable for pythons to survive, and there should be no pythons. ”
Mo Xiaosheng stared at the direction of the entrance of the cave and whispered, "It should be the smell of pythons, this fishy smell is very similar to the smell that a friend of mine described when he met pythons." I also heard the old man say that there are not only pythons in the Northeast, but also pythons that can eat people. ”
Mo Xiaosheng's friend is Li Cong, the political commissar of the Anti-Union Flying Tiger Regiment, and Li Cong is a southerner. Before Li Cong joined the army, he had an encounter with a python in his hometown and killed the python.
Later, he told this incident to Mo Xiaosheng as a story. And he also described in detail the fishy smell he smelled before he met the python.
Of course, Li Cong told Mo Xiaosheng this story for a purpose, he was telling Mo Xiaosheng a truth about being a man, and the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road.
"What are we going to do? Do you want to kill it? Jin Yaqin was short of breath and asked in a solemn whisper.
"Wait and see, as long as it doesn't come in, we don't take the initiative to provoke it." Mo Xiaosheng said in a deep voice. He thought to himself that if this python was just passing by, there was no need to provoke it, cause trouble for himself, and put himself in danger.
Jin Yaqin kept her original posture unchanged, always in a state of combat readiness, nodded slightly, and agreed with Mo Xiaosheng's thoughts.
Little by little, the smell of fish in the air intensified as time passed. Mo Xiaosheng found that the truth was far from what he wanted. The python he didn't want to provoke seemed to be deliberately trying to get along with them.
The fishy smell in the air became stronger and stronger, and with a strong fishy smell, there was a rustling sound outside the cave entrance. This is the sound of the python's scales rubbing against the ground when it moves.
Mo Xiaosheng held the hunting knife in his right hand, and made a backward gesture to Jin Yaqin with his left hand: "Retreat to the back of the fire." ”
Waiting for Jin Yaqin to retreat from the fire, Mo Xiaosheng quickly added firewood to the fire to make the fire more vigorous, and quickly retreated to the fire, stood side by side with Jin Yaqin, and formed the best offensive and defensive system with Jin Yaqin.
The rustling came to an abrupt halt near the entrance of the cave. Mo Xiaosheng and Jin Yaqin glanced at each other, and a tense atmosphere surrounded the two. They could even hear each other's hearts pounding.
"Will it come in?" Jin Yaqin asked in a trembling voice, no longer as calm as she had just now.
"Don't be afraid, we have what it takes to defeat it." Mo Xiaosheng's heart was also beating rapidly, and from the sound of the python rubbing as it moved, he could conclude that this was a behemoth. But he can't show cowardice, he is the backbone of Jin Yaqin, if he is timid, Jin Yaqin will collapse.
He also admonished himself that he could not be afraid, that there was no invincible enemy. As the saying goes, the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road. Any cowardice is fatal when it is dangerous, and if you want to live, you can only fight with all your strength to defeat the enemy.
The grinding sound of the python as it marched sounded again, and judging by the sound, it had begun to move towards the cave.
Mo Xiaosheng gently patted Jin Yaqin's trembling hands with his left hand, and said with a smile: "Relax, we will slaughter it together in a while, and roast snake meat to eat." ”
Mo Xiaosheng's encouragement seemed to inject stimulant into Jin Yaqin, took a deep breath, and adjusted his posture: "With you, I'm not afraid." ”
The rustling sound was getting closer and closer, and after a while, two blue lights flashed in the direction of the cave entrance. Blue light is emitted from two round objects about 20 centimeters apart, the size of a ping-pong ball.
Two blue lumines, constantly swinging, slowly pushed forward, gradually approaching the fire, revealing its full picture. It was a pair of python eyes, inlaid on the head of a python the size of a bowl, shooting a blue murderous light, forcing Mo Xiaosheng and Jin Yaqin to look.
This python is more than twelve meters long and is black overall, with cloud-like reticulations, a melasma on its back, and a yellow stripe on each side. But there is a clear difference between this python and other pythons, whether the head of this snake is red, or the kind that is bright red.
When the python approached the fire, it stopped. Lifting its predecessor, it stood upright more than a person tall, and the bright red snake head was facing Mo Xiaosheng and Jin Yaqin, spitting out a snake letter more than a foot long and branching in the middle, making a whirring sound from time to time.
"What should I do?" Jin Yaqin's heart, which had just calmed down, became nervous again after the appearance of this behemoth.
The snake is a terrifying animal that can make many people feel frightened and panic even if it is only the thickness of a finger. What's more, this is a giant python, how can it not make Jin Yaqin's heart tremble.
"There is no other way but to give it a try. I don't believe that with the strength of the two of us, we can't kill it and become its belly. Mo Xiaosheng looked firm and said confidently.
"Shall we?" Jin Yaqin will be skeptical.
"As long as we have faith, nothing is impossible." Mo Xiaosheng nodded at Jin Yaqin, full of confidence, no doubt.
With Mo Xiaosheng's encouragement, Jin Yaqin's nervous and frightened mood was calmed down, but her voice was still a little trembling: "If you get out, it's a big deal." ”
"It's the only one who dies." Mo Xiaosheng swung his hunting knife, slashed at the fire, lifted the firewood with flames in the fire, and threw it at the python.
