Chapter 248: The Battle of the Python
Kull also stepped out of it, and as he stood in front of the hatch, he grabbed the handle of the hatch and slammed it shut. The moment the hatch closes, there is a sharp screech of metal grinding, which is especially cautious in the dark. Liang Cheng looked along the hatch as if he saw that Kuhl's hand holding the doorknob was also trembling slightly.
The hatch closed, and there was an eerie atmosphere in the cabin. Liang Cheng sat silently beside Chen Xiaojing, watching her bury her head between her arms. Liang Cheng didn't tell Chen Xiaojing what had just happened, for fear that she would be stimulated again.
At this time, Kuhl walked past Liang Cheng's side, patted Liang Cheng's shoulder and motioned for Liang Cheng to go with him, and then Liang Cheng sat on a back seat.
Kuhl pulled a cigarette out of his pocket and put it to his lips. A cluster of firelight jumped by, and a cloud of gray-white smoke slowly rose.
Kuhl took a deep breath, spit out a mess of cotton-like smoke and said to Liang Cheng: "There really exists such a thing as corpse transformation. "The light of the smoke and the fire are slowly extinguished in the darkness.
"About ten years ago, Liang Cheng was on an expedition in Yunnan and encountered such a thing himself. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Liang Cheng wouldn't have believed that there would be such a ridiculous thing in the world. Kuhl began to speak leisurely.
It was a wet spring day, and Kul and his expedition team were walking through the rainforests of Yunnan. Because of the heavy rain that had just fallen, the rainforest ground was muddy. They were supported by a foreign charity and were tasked with finding and photographing the king cobra endemic to China's rainforests and bringing back a venom sample of it.
The so-called foreign public welfare organization is ostensibly engaged in public welfare, developing medical-related medicine bottles, such as serums, antidotes, antibiotics, etc., but in fact it is a huge organization for the purpose of trafficking in rare wild animals.
And this time, in addition to the above tasks, Kuhl and his party also have a so-called "side" mission, which is to capture the king cobra.
The king cobra is called the "king" not only because it has the longest body in the world. It is a very ferocious snake species, which can quickly secrete a large amount of highly venomous venom, and if the average person is bitten and left untreated, it will immediately enter a paralyzed state, and then suffocate to death in a very short time. And the transaction price revealed by the agency this time is the largest of all Chur's tasks.
Because this price is enough to keep Kuhl safe for the rest of his life. So Kuhl took on the task with three old friends who had been with him for a long time.
Although the road in the rainforest is very difficult, it is a very good condition for finding king cobras. Because it is easy to leave traces of snakes crawling on the ground.
"Boss, come and see." One of the brothers in the company shouted to Kuhl. Hearing the call of his companions, Kuhl did not hesitate and walked quickly to the brother's side. After decades of tempering, several of their old friends have a tacit understanding.
In the direction of the brother's finger, it was a very thick snake crawling, five centimeters wide. Kull crouched down, picked up a piece of dirt with his fingers, and slowly rubbed it up.
Kuhl straightened up and said to the people next to him, "I crawled ten minutes ago... It shouldn't be too far. ”
Soon the group carefully took the tools and traced the traces on the ground. Kull was still leading, plucking the haystack with his folding machete as he carefully checked the direction of the crawl marks. After walking for nearly ten minutes, the traces disappeared into a relatively hidden hole under a haystack.
The hole in the ground is not very large, and it is estimated that it is only the size of an adult's fist, and this should be the hole of the king cobra.
The group lowered their backpacks and began to carefully open the hole with their tools. A large man with a scar on his face stood in front of the cave with a snake net in one hand and a long snake trap in the other, and when everything was ready, the scarred man gave Chur a color.
Kuhl didn't procrastinate, and lit a piece of charcoal, which was immediately enveloped in thick black smoke coming out. The charcoal was placed at the entrance of the cave, and a thin man fanned the hole with a simple paper fan.
It didn't take long for black smoke to pour down the hole. Soon there was a commotion in the cave, and several very strange noises were made. Smoke continued to spread into the cave, and the commotion in the cave grew louder. Suddenly, a dark shadow burst out of the cave in a frenzy!
The sudden change made the big men who had already prepared at the entrance of the cave take a step back slightly! When I looked at it again, I found that the black shadow that came out of the hole turned out to be just a gray rabbit.
"The dog thief baby, it turned out to be a rabbit, scaring Lao Tzu!" The strong man with the scar scolded, but suddenly realized that something was wrong! Since the snake has crawled into the hole, how can there still be a rabbit in the hole!
Everyone present realized this! Looking behind the scarred man again, a blurry figure was hanging in the air, and his eyes were staring at the big man leisurely! It was a black-brown snake, with its lower body wrapped around a branch, and its upper body hanging in the air and rising up, spitting letters again and again, making a terrible ziz sound! On its raised abdomen, there are extremely conspicuous black linear markings, which are the markings that represent danger!
The hearts of everyone present instantly cooled half, "King Cobra." ”
"Bear blind!" Kull yelled at Scarred Man, but it was too late. The snake bit the neck of the scarred man like a bullet that popped out, and the scarred man's neck made a "click" sound of broken bones.
Seeing that the scarred man was no longer alive, his companions panicked. Seeing this scene, Kull didn't say a word, decisively pulled out his pistol and fired several shots in the direction of the king cobra. However, because the target was too small, the bullet did not hit the king cobra, but all of them went into the chest of the scarred man, and the scarred man could only snort and fell to the ground.
The king cobra is also very witty, and when it heard the gunshot, it immediately let go of the mouth of the big man with the scar, quickly fell from the branch to the ground, and fled to the grass on the side, and disappeared in an instant.
The strong man fell to the muddy ground, his eyes wide open, his pupils staring at the sky with empty eyes. Kull crouched down with a sad look on his face and closed the strong man's eyes with his hands. The brothers who have lived and died together for so many years are dead, and everyone is not in the mood to carry out the mission.
A sturdy man in the group carried the body of a scarred man who had lost his breath, and the group followed the river to find a deserted woodwatchman's hut before stopping. The hut has been uninhabited for a long time, and in the damp house, there are all kinds of small insects crawling in the corners, and the body of the strong man has also been placed by the wall after entering the hut.
Kull muttered to himself at the corpse of the scarred man in the corner: "Brother, you and I have been wandering for so long, going up the knife mountain and down the sea of fire, you will die here." After Kuhl's words, everyone present burst into tears.
