Chapter 65: Shoot to Death
When the python saw a dog and a man running over, he immediately raised his head and spat snake hyacinth at her and it. In the moonlight, the long snake hyacinth was bright as blood.
This is the golden python that Xia Li has seen many times, and it still came to her house.
Xia Li didn't have time to think about it, and shot an arrow.
The arrow was shot just below the python's head, and the arrow passed through its body and lay across it.
Xia Li felt that it should be seven inches there. The python was furious, its body surged up and down, its tail rattled on the ground and the wall, and its head was raised higher. It was dizzy, bouncing and rushing forward, but there was a wall above, and it couldn't bounce up, not to mention, its tail hit the wall, and its body hurt. The two stones also fell down and pressed it underneath. With another effort, it arched the stone aside.
When it jumped, Xia Li shot the second and third arrows, all of which were worn on its body. The three arrows were arranged in the middle of the head, and one was always seven inches. The python finally reacted, stopped playing, and jumped forward quickly. Due to the arrows hanging below the head, the head is also lifted when climbing, which affects the crawling speed.
When the python had already crawled to the vegetable patch, Xia Li shot a fourth arrow, directly in one of its eyes. When the fifth arrow was fired, the python was already less than a zhang away from Xia Li, and the arrow was shot in the other eye. When Dangdang stood in front of Xia Li, always ready to protect his sister and pounce on it.
The python had five arrows hanging on its body and did not jump forward, and after twisting for a while, its body did not move.
Xia Li finally breathed a sigh of relief, her clothes were soaked with sweat. Xia's crying came from behind, and she was still holding a woodcutter in her hand, trembling all over.
Xia Ju's cry was still fierce, shouting, "Mother, sister, sister......"
When you see that the danger is gone, run over to check. As soon as it ran close to the python, the python suddenly writhed, wrapped its long body around the dangdang, and stood up and bit at it. Since he can't see, his movements are a little sluggish. When it was a little faster than it, it had bitten its neck.
Xia Li snatched the knife from Xia's hand and ran over, and was just about to cut its head, when he saw that Dangdang had gnawed off its big half of the neck, the python's head fell to the ground, and its long body was also released.
When it was entangled and out of breath, it crawled out and lay on the ground to gasp for breath, but fortunately it used its last bit of strength to gnaw off half of the python's neck, otherwise it would have been entangled to death.
At this time, the door was slammed, "What's the matter, what's wrong with your house?" ”
It was a few neighbors who heard the movement of her house and ran to help with hoes and poles.
Xia ran to the door with his weak legs and said, "It was the big snake that entered my house and has been killed." ”
She is a widow, she only wears a middle coat, no shoes, she is fine, and it is difficult to open the door in the middle of the night to let the foreign man in.
Uncle Hao said, "It's good to be killed, and if there is something, you can call your throat." ”
Xia said gratefully, "Okay, thank you. ”
The footsteps of several people gradually faded away, and some people said, "The mother and daughter are so bold that the big snake dares to fight and kills." ”
A voice, "The girl looks delicate and weak, it's so powerful, the Wang family can't get up after the next day......"
Xia Ju also ran out, standing barefoot under the eaves and crying. The movement outside frightened him and he hiccuped from crying. Xia Shi carried him back to the couch, coaxed him a few words, went into the house and put on shoes and coats, and then went to take out Xia Li's shoes and coats.
Xia Li chopped off the snake's head with a machete, only to be sure that the python must be dead. Finally relaxed, she sat next to Dangdang.
She was afraid for a while, this python was too terrible and had a long life. At first, it was half inside the wall and half outside the wall, and if it hadn't flounced up and down in a rage, it had come straight at her, and she would have come to her before she could shoot the last two arrows. If she carelessly runs to the python first, or the python pretending to be dead makes a surprise attack, her little life or her small life will always be lost.
No wonder hunters avoid it. To be able to kill it, it is yourself and when you are lucky......
Xia went over to put shoes on her and then put on her clothes.
Xia Li sat for more than half an hour before he came to his senses. She got up and went over and took the five arrows from the dead python, but still did not dare to catch it, and clamped it into the sack with a long iron clip that burned the fire, and tied it with a rope.
Xia Shi and Xia Li pushed two more boulders to block the entrance of the cave, and the green bricks on the entrance of the cave had been loosened by the python, and two pieces fell down. They discussed, tomorrow they will let Erniu plug the hole with bricks again. The entrance to the cave is convenient for Dangdang, and it is also convenient for other wild animals.
Some of the claw racks in the vegetable patch were knocked over, but fortunately, the potato seedlings did not suffer.
Dangdang still fell to the ground, he was almost out of breath by the python just now, and now he is still uncomfortable. In the moonlight, the hairs on the sides of its mouth are red. grinning again, there are bloodshot white teeth, which looks particularly terrifying.
Xia Li followed its fur and comforted, "Okay, it's all over, the python is dead...... If you're lucky, you can live a few more years if you drink the blood of the Golden Plate Python. ”
When he heard this, he stood up.
Xia asked, "You said this is the Golden Plate Python?" ”
In Yixiang Restaurant, Xia also heard rumors about the Jinpan python.
Xia Li said, "The patterns on its body, as well as its powerful attack power, must be the Golden Plate Python." Tomorrow, let the third uncle accompany me to find the shopkeeper He, ask the specific address of the big family in the provincial capital, and go to the provincial capital to sell it to him. If you sell it to someone else, you won't pay that high price. ”
If you go to the provincial capital, you must live outside for one night, it is inconvenient to bring Xia Ju, and you dare not take Dangdang with you, so you must leave an adult at home.
Xia Shi saw that Xia Li wanted to go, although he was reluctant, but he thought that Xia Shan was with him, so he had to agree. The bigger the separation, the more ideas you have, and you can't agree with it. She instructed, "Come back as soon as you sell it, don't run around, my mother is worried about ......"
Xia Li said, "I know. ”
Although they were frightened, they were able to sell this thing for six hundred taels of silver, and they were happy for the rest of their lives.
Especially Xia Li, who had been worried that the big snake entrenched in the mountains would come down to his home. I didn't expect it to really come, and it was killed by her and Dangdang, and I don't have to watch the movements in the mountains every night in the future.
It's just such a coincidence, these days, I was lazy tonight, and the python came to her house. If she had observed the mountains as usual and known in advance, she would not have been so caught off guard.
Xia Li's mother and daughter's clothes were soaked with sweat, they took a bath, cleaned up the dangdang, it was already light, and the two of them and a dog went to bed to rest again.
It didn't take long for the mother and daughter to get up.
called Xia Ju up, and Xia Li told him and Dangdang about his trip to the provincial capital. Xia Ju Sticky Xia was even worse than Sticky Xia's, and he was very reluctant, but he still didn't raise any objections with red eyes.
