Chapter 223: Moths to the Fire

"What's wrong!? How does this not make sense!? Du Guolong asked. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Tang Hongxi said solemnly: "Officer Du, if you remember, you should know that our alcohol is sprinkled in the mouth of the beast, in other words, the burning should be in his body, but this guy is talking about the scorch marks on the surface of the animal's body, so ......"

"It's true that alcohol is thrown into the mouth of a beast, but don't forget, this beast is a flesh, and if you light it, the fire can completely burn out of the body."

Du Guolong's explanation is not unreasonable, and it is also in line with scientific conventions.

But Tang Hongxi still shook his head and denied: "No, if it was really burned from the inside to the outside, in one night, this beast would have been burned to ashes a long time ago." ”

"Maybe the fire was extinguished in the middle of the fire, you and I can't be sure about this, can we?" Du Guolong continued to insist.

"Even if it was extinguished, the beast should have been burned to the ground, but what he just described was that there were only scorch marks on the surface of the body, so ...... It doesn't make sense. ”

"Alas, yes, let's not fight, just ask the beast if it's over."

As soon as these words came out, Tang Hongxi couldn't help but laugh and blurt out.

Oh, yes! What a simple question, if you want to know if this charred beast is the giant python last night, just ask the size of the little beast.

"Dr. Shen, please ask him, see if it is the giant python we used last night."

Nodding, Shen Guoguo set his gaze on the little man who was stupid and stared at the little man.

"Brother, let me ask you, how long is that beast you met on the road!?"

"This ...... I want to think about it......" Looking up at the ceiling, the little one thought for a while, and smacked his lips: "Well, you said that his body length should be about twelve or three meters." ”

Hearing this, Shen Guoguo exhaled: "It's not a giant python, he said that the dead body of the python is twelve or three meters." ”

Du Guolong paused for a few seconds after hearing this, and then said: "It seems that you are right, I also feel that the beast is not so easy to die." ”

Tang Hongxi was not surprised by the little man's reply.

Because in the judgment of his supervisor, the beast corpse in the other party's mouth could never be a giant python.

After all, it doesn't make sense in all respects.

In the end, the facts turned out to be the same as his inference.

But after listening to the positive translation results given by Shen Guoguo, Tang Hongxi not only did not relax, but on the contrary, his face was even more solemn.

Seeing that Tang Hongxi's face was not quite right, Shen Guoguo immediately asked with concern: "What's wrong with you, Xiao Tang!?" Still have questions? ”

"Hiss," taking a breath, Tang Hongxi raised his eyebrows to meet Shen Guoguo's gaze, and then spoke: "If that dead body is not a giant python, then where did the scorch marks on its body come from?" ”

Hearing this, Shen Guoguo was dumbfounded.

There was indeed something wrong with this, because the situation was very clear last night, Tang Hongxi only lit a giant python, and the other beasts were not attacked by fire.

"Could it be that it was ignited by the flames on the python's body!?" Thinking of a possibility, Shen Guoguo blurted out.

After listening to Shen Guoguo's answer, Tang Hongxi's train of thought was instantly opened, and he immediately said: "Maybe the flame on that beast was not ignited......

"Isn't it ignited!? That would be!? Some couldn't keep up with Tang Hongxi's train of thought, and Shen Guoguo asked curiously.

"Maybe it took the initiative to extinguish the fire for the giant python and ignited it itself."

"Huh!? Extinguish the fire for the python!? ”

"Let's not talk about this for a while, Dr. Shen, you ask it, did he have mucus on his body when he saw the carcass of the beast? Or rather, it's more humid. ”

"What do you mean......" As soon as he heard Tang Hongxi's words, Shen Guoguo could probably guess what the young man meant.

Tang Hongxi nodded noncommittally.

Shen Guoguo, who received an affirmative answer, should not be secretly alarmed, because if Tang Hongxi's inference is correct, then this matter will be too terrible.

Without delay, Shen Guoguo hurriedly asked: "Is there anything special about the body surface of the beast corpse, such as whether there is some viscous liquid on the scales?" ”

"Yes! It looked like it was paste, it was disgusting anyway, and it smelled fishy. ”

After saying this, Shen Guoguo's eyes swelled.

Seeing this, Tang Hongxi asked out loud: "How is it, what is the situation, is there any on the beast?" ”

"Yes!!" Concise and to the point, Shen Guoguo didn't say half a nonsense, and said such a word decisively.

But for Tang Hongxi, the word "have" is enough to explain all the problems.

"What are you talking about!?" Tang Hongxi and Shen Guoguo are all clear about the situation, but Du Guolong is still in the clouds.

Shen Guoguo immediately turned around and explained: "According to Xiao Tang's question, this beast now has unknown slime and fire scorch marks on his body at the same time, what does this mean?" ”

"What does it mean!?" Du Guolong had a "this is no nonsense" expression on his face.

If he knew about you Tang Hongxi, Shen Guoguo wouldn't have been so stupid to ask questions when talking.

"If these two things appear at the same time, it means that this beast has once entered the body of a giant python."

"Wait a minute!!" Hearing this, Du Guolong was obviously a little reminiscing.

"The beast got into the python's body...... What are you two trying to say...... The python crushed the fire in its belly by devouring its own men!? ”

Both nodded, Du Guolong, and Tang Hongxi said in unison: "Yes."

"However, it's hard to say whether the giant python devoured his subordinates, maybe it was the beast himself who put out the fire and sacrificed his life to save the king." Tang Hongxi immediately added a sentence from Wen Zou.

Du Guolong couldn't help sweating when he heard this.

"This is too damn evil, isn't it, this beast can ...... Do this? ”

With his hands spread, Tang Hongxi didn't know if he was speechless: "Who knows?" Maybe there is, maybe not, but the important thing is that from the current situation, most of the fire in the python's body has been extinguished. In other words, it is highly likely alive. ”

Tang Hongxi's conclusion is undoubtedly not good news for his own camp.

The rescue team under the mountain was almost wiped out, if the python was still alive......

The atmosphere on the field suddenly became dead, and everyone had a solemn face on their faces.

After a while, Du Guolong slowly spoke: "But this beast entered the body of the giant python to extinguish the fire, why was it spit out again?" It stands to reason that it also consumed a lot last night, isn't it better to eat it directly to replenish its strength!? ”

It's a reasonable question, anyway, Du Guolong doesn't believe that beasts still have the habit of picking their mouths and not eating the same kind.

In his opinion, brutes are brutes, and bloody killing is their instinct.

Not to mention, the charred beast was already dead, so it wasn't strange to eat it.

But Tang Hongxi has a different view, as a person who has come over, his perspective on living things is obviously different from that of humans in the world.

He knew that the appearance of the Pupil of Contempt had brought about a dramatic change in the entire biological world.

So......

"I think there are probably two possible reasons why the python spit out the corpse. One is that the corpse itself is of the same kind, and in line with the principle of cannibalism, the python did not devour the corpse. Secondly, it was the fire that damaged the python's digestive organs, making it impossible for him to devour and digest such a huge corpse. ”
