"Dragons?"

Zhou Lixiang was not surprised by this question, there were already rumors of this in the reserve.

It's just that there are no dragons, Zhou Lixiang doesn't know, he has been in this reserve for some years, although this reserve does not occupy as much as several other well-known ones, but there are also many rare animals and plants, many creatures that have not even thought about it, and now he Zhou Lixiang has eyes.

However, with Sun Fu's death, the strangeness of this incident also appeared here.

On the day of Sun Fu's death, Zhou Lixiang happened to have something to do, and when he received the letter and rushed back, the traces over there had been almost washed away by the rain, and he also saw it from the photos taken by his subordinates. The photo should not be faked, the palm-sized snake scale pattern is very conspicuous in the photo.

At the beginning of the period, only a few people knew about the content of the photo, and everyone in the reserve thought that Sun Fu's death was an accident. But there are only so many people in the reserve, and the snake scale pattern was not deliberately blocked, and it didn't take long for it to spread throughout the reserve, and it was nothing in a short time, after all, anyone who encountered such a big snake would panic.

But some people raised objections, the reserve has been in the reserve for so long, I have never heard of such a big python, Sun Fu is an old leader, he has been working in the reserve for a lot longer than Zhou Lixiang, it has been raining all day, he will not climb the mountain on a rainy day for no reason, that is a dangerous thing.

What's more, if this giant python exists, such a large individual must have a very huge consumption of itself, so why not eat Zhang Fu? That's calories after all.

Snakes are cold-blooded animals, and most of these creatures will not stop eating dead things, and they are more likely to give up because they don't find food. Even if Sun Fu really stumbled and rolled down from the hillside, it should be impossible for the giant python circling next to the corpse not to find Sun Fu.

Perhaps, the python was just passing by, or it was already full.

But in any case, such a thing as a dead person cannot be hidden, let alone an affiliated institution. When it was finally reported, the cause of death column was filled in with the giant python attack in the week, and I didn't think too much about it, and reported those photos together.

Python!

Real Dragon!

This is originally two different things, although there are often legends of giant pythons cultivating into dragons and snakes crossing the catastrophe and turning dragons, but after all, legends are just legends, and people who have really seen them basically do not exist, and they have never really found the proof of the dragon, but all kinds of fake news emerge in endlessly.

"A real dragon?"

Zhou Li Xiang muttered that in the past few days since Sun Fu's death, the word dragon has been flooded in the reserve. At first, there were rumors that Sun Fu was selling protected animals to raise Xiaosan and the like, and then I don't know who exposed the rumors about 'Shenlong punishing evil' and 'Shenlong locking soul', anyway, Sun Fu did a lot of evil and deserved to die.

But, on the other hand, if the scale of such a huge snake in the photo is a living thing, it must be at least twenty or thirty meters long, and they are all staff of the reserve, and no one has ever seen such a huge snake, so rumors naturally spread.

"How...... Possible...... Is there such a being? ”

Looking at Zhou Lixiang's somewhat hesitant appearance, Ku Ding shook his head, he knew that the deputy director of Zhou probably didn't know much about it. For the deceased Sun Fu did something bad, Ku Ding was not interested, for Zhou Lixiang, no matter how much he asked, he couldn't ask much, but he had a black face, and he really provoked something unclean.

"Just say it casually, just kidding, don't take it seriously."

Ku Ding patted Zhou Lixiang's shoulder, and when he touched his shoulder, he was visibly felt to shrink a little, and Ku Ding just smiled.

"Don't forget, after this month, remember to go to the west and find a Daoting temple, if you don't find it, you come to me."

Zhou Li Xiang is inexplicable, but Ku Ding doesn't say it, he is not a righteous ghost catcher, so he will not leave a few words of confusion and guidance to the 'guest', that kind of ambiguous rhetoric can indeed get unexpected receipts many times, but Ku Ding let Zhou Lixiang go to the west, naturally there are some reasons, if Zhou Lixiang has not solved his own problem by then, this problem is likely to be blackened, and that is when Ku Ding wants to take over.

After leaving a business card for Zhou Lixiang, Ku Ding took the photo back from Zhou Lixiang's hand, then signaled to Platoon Commander Li and walked out. Although it was raining heavily, he still wanted to go to the scene, and he always felt that something would be found there.

The real purpose of his coming here naturally could not be for a dead man.

Ku Ding wanted to go to the scene, Platoon Commander Li naturally followed, they came here for some time, the road had already been familiar, and they went out and called two soldiers, which was regarded as escorting Ku Ding straight to the mountains and forests, and Ku Ding did not refuse.

These two soldiers are real guns, although they are not first-line equipment, but they are also combat sequences, and you can see from their movements that they should belong to veterans who have been practicing all year round.

After all, the reserve is a protected area, and there is naturally no shortage of beasts in it, but most of them will not appear in the area where the protected area is located, after all, this is the periphery, and there are already people. However, the reserve has been established for less than ten years, and Ku Ding and his party walked along the dirt road for less than 20 minutes, and the road has become a mountain road, not to mention rugged, and there are many thorns.

The veterans generally don't have many words, one after the other, sandwiching Ku Ding in the middle and going straight to the destination. Because it had rained, it was wet everywhere, and some places were very slippery, and the two veterans were still a little cautious, but Ku Ding was like walking on the ground, and the deep ditch and high slope were all jumping up, which made the two veterans have to show a trace of admiration, after all, Ku Ding's actions did not have a trace of mud and water, it seems that he is a practitioner.

Ku Ding has rarely walked around in recent years, but after entering the mountain, he showed a unique excitement, and when he saw some rare plants, he would stop for a moment, and he didn't record, just looked.

The mountain path became narrower and narrower, and in the end, it was basically necessary to drip grass and trees, and it took another half an hour to reach the place of Sun Fu's death.

To the west of this place is a 100-meter-high cliff, from which some water flows, probably after heavy rain. There is a gentle slope in the north-south direction, and the place where Zhang Fu died is at the bottom of this gentle slope, and someone has inserted a wooden stick there, which is considered to be a mark, but it is very rough.

After Ku Ding arrived at the ground, he walked around by himself, pinching something in his hand from time to time.

"Did you get all this overwhelming vegetation here, or did you do it before you came?"

Pointing to some traces around him, Ku Ding asked.

"It was like this before we came, and the situation here has basically not been touched except for the rain. There is a camera not far from here, and even people in the reserve only have a routine inspection once a week or so. ”

The soldier replied with a scratch on the corner of his mouth.

Ku Ding nodded, crouched down and fiddled with a broken branch, frowning.

One of the locations taken in the photo is here, but the snake scales seem to have been washed away by the heavy rain, leaving only these crushed branches and trees, if he has to say, these traces are more like this giant python swimming nearby, watching Zhang Fu, until Zhang Fu dies, and then leaves.
