Chapter 11: Snakes Dance

After entering the tomb at first, we were all nervous, including Lao Zhao and Song Jin, two veterans. Lao Zhao repeatedly knocked on the ground before taking a step forward, so that the speed of our progress was actually very slow, and I felt that it was not much faster than a snail crawling.

After walking about a few dozen meters, the tomb began to slope upward, the slope was not too large or small, but because the humidity was too heavy, the feet were always slippery, and finally we became a hand and foot together, so that the center of gravity was relatively stable.

As soon as I got up the slope, I could faintly hear the sound of running water, and based on the direction we had just come down and the distance we had walked, it should be near the waterfall now. After the ramp went up some distance, the tomb began to straighten again. We're back in the same forward posture as before.

After walking like this for more than half an hour, the tomb began to open up and gradually turned into a hall, and finally two white marble doors blocked the way.

I shone a flashlight on the stone gates, and saw that the stone gates were more than three meters high, and each one was more than two meters wide. Such a big door can't be said to be stone, even if it's wood, we can't push it open.

Song Jin stepped forward, put his ear on the stone door, and knocked on the stone door with his hand.

The pit said disdainfully: "What knock, what are you going to do, you still plan someone to open the door for you." ”

Song Jin said: "Yes, I just opened the door." With that, he knocked on a few other places.

"Master" Song Jin shouted at Lao Zhao. This is the first time I have heard Song Jin call Lao Zhao, and it turns out that the two of them still have this relationship. Lao Zhao nodded and motioned for Song Jin to continue.

"Judging by the echo, there is a top door stone behind the door, and if you want to open the door, you have to remove the top door stone first, but no door opening mechanism has been found."

"Then move the stones." The pit yelled. Lao Zhao waved his hand and told the pit not to interrupt, the pit was boring to ask for it, and he stopped making a sound.

"One more thing, there's something behind the door, and it's alive." Song Jin continued.

This sentence is not light or heavy, but it is enough to make us creepy, what can be alive in the ancient tomb, could it be that the owner of the tomb has deceived the corpse and is wandering blindly inside.

Lao Zhao heard Song Jin say this, and also leaned over to the stone gate to listen, and his expression became more melancholy. It seems that as Song Jin said, there is really something in it, but now I can't tell what it is.

The pit raised the old gun of the mobile phone and said: "It doesn't matter what he is, as long as it can be seen and lived, he is afraid of this, and when the time comes, we will meet the gods and kill the gods and the Buddhas." "The pit is easy to chicken jelly, and the door must be opened, but it is necessary to study how to open it and what to do after it is opened.

In the end, we discussed it and decided that Song Jin would move the top door stone and open the door a little first to observe the situation. After having a conclusion, Song Jin took the lead, climbed up more than a meter along the stone gate, stuck to the stone gate like a gecko, and then inserted the stainless steel probe into the crack of the door, slid up and down, and moved back and forth, left and right, and after a while, he pulled out the probe and jumped down. The little boy has excellent skills, and in such a short time, he has managed to get a stone door.

I was amazed by Song Jin's technique, but Song Jin himself said that it was nothing, saying that the reason why this kind of stone door is easy to open is because there is a gap between the two doors after closing, as long as there are suitable tools to handle it properly, it is easy to open.

After removing the top door stone, the four of us worked together to push the stone door on the right open a crack, and at this time even I could hear the sound of swishing inside the door, which made people's hearts furious. Human beings are always afraid of the unknown.

The pit lit up and threw a few glow sticks along the crack in the door, and suddenly the space behind the stone door was illuminated. In the light I saw several pythons crawling on the ground, as thick as an adult bamboo and as thin as a wrist.

It turns out that the sound of "swish" is the sound of snakes crawling and rubbing on the ground, but how many snakes do you have to make such a sound! If you speculate from the area illuminated by the glow stick just now, the space behind the stone gate is full of this kind of python, if we want to pass through the stone gate, do we have to fight a group of snakes?

At this moment, without us noticing, a snake had already crawled down the stone door through the crack in the door, and with a leap, it lay directly on my neck. It's not good, I was shocked, this thing is going to kill me, it jumps directly to my neck, and then the whole body will tighten, use the body to suffocate my neck, in this case, people can't struggle for long, they will die. Realizing the seriousness of the situation, I didn't care too much, so I grabbed the snake around my neck and threw it out. Poof, a python more than two meters long was thrown to the ground by me, raised the head of the snake and spit out letters at us, I was frightened and leaned back against the stone door, touching my neck with my hand, I could still feel the cool air of the python just now.

This is the second time we have encountered a python this time, the one we met in the woods before has been killed by us, that one is bigger than this one, now I think about it, the one in the woods should also run out from here, at that time, I listened to Song Jin's meaning, this python is not a local species. It's really unlucky, we opened the stone gate again this time, which is considered to be a snake's nest. I pulled out my pistol and shot two shots at the snake's head, and the python, which was still alive just now, had already been broken by me, but its body was still writhing. It's easy to deal with such a two, but there are at least a few hundred behind the stone gate, and that's not something we can solve in three or two, and if we don't get it, we have to fold it in.

Whether to pass through the stone gate and how to pass through the stone gate has become the most tangled problem for us at present. My idea was to find a way around it, but it was quickly rejected. The passage where we are now is completely excavated in the mountain, such a big project does not know how many people will have to work and how long it will take to complete, with a few of us want to open another way out here, I don't know the year of the monkey, not to mention our equipment supply, we are not allowed to delay, again we don't know in what direction to dig a hole.

The pit thinks that we should fight a bloody way, although the method is very straightforward, but if we have enough weapons, hundreds of snakes, even ten thousand, are not a problem, just with the equipment we have now, to face hundreds of snakes, isn't it looking for death. So it's not feasible to fight hard.

When we were all at a loss, Song offered his opinion. "Python's eyesight is actually very rubbish, and it can only see stationary things for the most part. Theoretically, as long as we don't move, the snake can't see us. Song Jin took out a look like an animal world narrator and told us.

"But even if we don't move, the snake can still spot us." Unexpectedly, Song Jin continued.

"Damn, isn't that the same as not saying it! Something normal people can understand. The pit muttered.

"Although invisible to the eye, the snake can rely on its own letter to pick up the different scents in the air and judge the presence of its prey. So that's the real eye of the snake. Song Jin said as he learned to stick out his tongue as the snake spent.

"I see, you mean we're going to cut out the snake's tongue." The pit slapped his thigh and said, and the pit opened his mind again.

"Brother Niu, you should spare me, you should say something that I understand, and tell me how to cut its tongue." Lao Zhao, who had not spoken, finally couldn't help but interject.

"It's such a difficult thing to cut the snake's tongue, it's better to kill it directly. Or do you mean kill first and then cut your tongue. Lao Zhao continued. Lao Zhao's words denied the idea of the pit from the perspective of the most basic normal human being, and of course taught me a lesson for the pit.

But Song Jin's brain turned very fast, "That's right, it's what Brother Pit said, we have to cut off the snake's tongue, but not with a knife, but with this ......" As he spoke, he took out the snake gall he had taken from the Tatar sand anaconda in the forest.

"Since we can't cut off their tongues one by one with a knife, let's make their tongues useless. In this snake gall, the essence of the sand snake is condensed, and we can take its essence and smear it on our body, disguising ourselves as the scent of a snake, and naturally we will not be attacked. Song Jin explained.

Theoretically speaking, I think Song Jin's method is indeed feasible, at least it is worth trying, but this is only a theory after all, and as soon as the thought of being coated with this disgusting snake bile all over his body, his stomach churns and almost vomits. "Can we think of something else? Isn't this too tragic? I said to Song Jin.

Song Jin didn't speak for a while, pondered for a while, shook his head and said, "I can't think of any other way for a while, as far as I can think of at the moment, this may be the best way." Maybe we can pass through this tomb in a battle, but with just a few of us fighting hundreds of pythons, what are our chances of winning. "Song Jin's words are reasonable, we can't talk about the odds of winning at this time, we can only talk about how miserable we will die.

"So if we can't beat us, we can only hide, and if this method works, we will be safe until the smell of snake bile dissipates, and as long as we pass through the tomb behind the door in this time, we will be able to avoid a losing battle."

If it can really be as Song Jin said, then it will be the best result, to avoid a head-on battle with the python group, our purpose is only to pass through the tomb in the back, the death or life of the snake has nothing to do with us, but why are there so many snakes in this tomb? All I can think of is that the owner of the tomb deliberately arranged it to prevent theft. To be able to arrange such a "pompous" tomb, presumably it must not be simple for him, just rush to this point, no matter who he is, it is definitely worth it.

I thought about it for a long time, and finally made up my mind to support Song Jin's method, if we can't fight, we can't hide, we can't resist.
