Chapter 7 Swimming Against the Current

When I think of this, I'm discouraged. I only hate that I didn't play well while I was young, and found a few more girls to be chic.

Just as I closed my eyes and prepared to accept this reality, I was not swallowed by the python as I expected.

When I opened my eyes again, I saw that the pit was waving a dry tree branch and shouting loudly. The python didn't dare to step forward for a while, held its head high, and opened its mouth to spit out a dark red letter.

"Be careful, don't get too far ahead." I told the pit.

The pit looked back at me, and suddenly threw the twig at me, "Here you go!" ”

I reached out and grabbed the branch that I threw at me, and the old gun was dropped on the ground. The pit rolled on the spot, picked up the old gun from my side and retreated behind me.

I'm fucking, I'm holding a branch, facing an aggressive python, I'm not ready.

The pit shouted, "Go on! ”

"Get on your mom X, **show me the last one." I scolded.

"Intentions, Xu Xianxing, you can too." Pit Road.

At this time, there are still people who are in the mood to joke, and only the second goods like the pit can do it. I let out a loud cry and rushed forward with my fork in both hands.

When the python saw me rushing up, he swallowed it in one gulp, leaving two deep tooth marks on the branches.

I waved it around and urged the pit to quickly find a way. I saw that this thing opened the gunpowder bag unhurriedly and began to charge the barrel of the gun, slowly like a girl.

"What about having a baby, can you be a little more profitable?" I scolded the pit.

"Patience is a virtue!" The pit replied.

"If you slow down, your dad will be gone." I continued to scold him, waving the twig in my hand.

Suddenly, there was a click, and the branch in my hand broke in two. I threw the remaining branch at the python, turned and ran. The pit that was originally behind me was pushed to the front line at once.

"Zero eggs, you cheat me." The pit screamed. The big python had swam to him, and suddenly jumped forward, straight to the door of the pit. The pit jumped back, and the python pounced on the first bite. The python, which did not succeed, swam quickly, took a leap, and pounced on the pit again.

I saw that after the pit landed, he pulled the bolt of the gun and raised the old gun against the python, the python was impartial and swallowed the muzzle, and with a muffled sound, the old gun was stimulated in the python's mouth.

The huge force directly knocked the python nearly five meters away, and the whole body writhed in pain, and it was impossible to live. The pit was sat on the ground by recoil.

I hurriedly pulled up the pit, for fear that the python would fight back again. Gunshots were heard in the distance, and Lao Zhao and Song Jin also ran over here. Lao Zhao ran over to take a look at us, and Song Jin ran over to look at the python that had lost most of his life.

After a while, Song Jin ran back, "Tatar sand python, it stands to reason that it shouldn't appear here." Song Jin told us.

"It shouldn't be, it shouldn't have been born." Pit Road.

"Dead?" Lao Zhao asked.

"Almost," Song Jin said.

Lao Zhao pouted at the python's side. Song Jin seemed to have received some order, trotted all the way over, stabbed the head of the snake with a dagger in his hand a few times, we could hear the tearing sound of the dagger piercing into the flesh from afar, I didn't expect Song Jin to be so ruthless.

After staying for a while, Song Jin ran back and said to Lao Zhao, "It's dead." Lao Zhao nodded and said nothing.

The pit and I stared wide-eyed, severely irritated by what had just happened. Especially when Song Jin raised the knife and dropped it a few times, he was completely like a demon who killed people without blinking.

Before Lao Zhao left, the three of us followed and rushed to the camping place. Kengzi said to Song Jin: "Look at your boy's politeness, why are you so ruthless." ”

Song Jin disagreed, and said: "Brother Niu's words are not right, if you hadn't shot him in the mouth, how could I have killed him." ”

"I just pulled out its teeth, but I didn't kill it." The pit is not convinced.

"What do you call a tooth extraction? One shot penetrated, and it was all beaten into a brain, and I just made up the knife to make it suffer less sin, Amitabha, my Buddha is compassionate. Song Jin said.

The pit snorted and said, "This will remind me of mercy, why did I go just now." It's really murderous and erecting monuments, eating and wiping your mouth. ”

As soon as the words came out, Lao Zhao and I couldn't help laughing, and in the end, even Song Jin couldn't help but laugh secretly.

Back at the campsite, we started preparing for dinner. I used the dry firewood I picked up to build a fire, and Song Jin used an enamel jar from the creek to bring water from the stream and burn it on the fire. The high flames swallowed the enamel jar whole, and in a short time the water made a clattering sound. Our food was very adequate, and Song Jin gave each of us a pack of compressed biscuits and two lean meat hams. Remembering what had just happened to the tree, the pit quickly reached out and touched his coat pocket, grabbing out a handful of yellow viscous liquid. It turned out that after the fight just now, some of the bird's eggs had been squeezed into thin pieces in their pockets.

Song Jin held a biscuit in one hand and a ham sausage in the other, and said in surprise: "Brother Niu, you won't pull your pants in fright?" ”

"Fart, who am I? General Niu, can pull up his pants? The pit retorted, shaking his head regretfully as he picked out a few eggs that were still intact.

Lao Zhao smiled when he saw this, "No wonder that beast didn't let you go, the delicious meal to your mouth was taken away by Cheng Biting Jin, who was killed halfway by you, and he didn't play with you." ”

I looked at each other with the pit, and after Lao Zhao reminded me of this, I knew that it was our good thing that broke the python first.

"I got it first, and I didn't take it out of its stomach." The pit is ripe and the duck has a hard beak shell.

Song Jin threw something over with his hand, caught the pit with his other hand, and saw that it was a small glass bottle with a green whirring thing inside.

"What's that?" Pit asked.

"The salad dressing for you, Brother Niu, was just taken from that guy." Song Jin said with a wicked smile.

The pit snorted, and didn't seem to react. I took the bottle and took a look, the green in this bottle was not the snake gall on the python, when I thought of this, I felt nauseous, and I couldn't stop retching.

This Song Jin looks polite, how can it sometimes be more than a pit, if the snake gall is a salad dressing, who can eat it.

Song Jin took back the glass bottle from my hand, held it up and looked at it himself, and put it in his backpack very carefully.

After the pit knew that it was a snake gall, he had to ask Song Jin to take it out and take a look at it, but Song Jin didn't give it, and the pit was unhappy.

Lao Zhao saw that we had been talking nonsense, and urged us to hurry up and eat, and we had to hurry after eating. As the oldest among us, Lao Zhao is a god-like existence with his rich experience. None of us talked nonsense, bowed our heads and ate the food in our hands. The pit threw the intact eggs into the fire and roasted them for us, which was considered a meal for today's lunch.

After the meal we drowned the fire with water and buried it with wet soil so as not to cause a fire. The next direction of progress has become a problem, Song Jin has always been looking for a way on the map, but now we are deep in the depths of the dense forest, there is no road, and the next thing is to rely on us to explore the way.

Several people stared at me, and I was a little nervous for a while, but I wasn't scared, at this time, I must not mess around, no matter what, I will talk about it first.

I coughed and asked Song Jin to give me the compass. Holding the compass, I looked at it decently, and I probably had a score in my mind.

"We're going to go upstream along the creek." I put down the compass and said.

"Aha, why didn't you cross the river?" The pit first raised questions.

As for the problem of pits, I have already thought of a way to deal with it.

"According to my initial inference, the place where the tomb of the prince of the Northern Yuan Dynasty is located should be the confluence of two mountain ranges, and there should be water here. All the water in this mountain flows down from the top of the mountain, and we can trace it to the source of this stream by going upstream. "I analyzed it little by little with them.

The three of them nodded together in approval.

"Rather than crossing the river and encountering another stream, or more streams, it is better for us to go to the source of this stream from here." I continued.

Unexpectedly, the three of them agreed on my statement, so we packed up our things and went up the stream.

There were almost no roads in the dense forest, and we had to stumble forward. I don't know how long we walked, but it was already completely dark, and we had to stop again to prepare for the night in the dense forest tonight.

The legendary tomb of the prince of the Northern Yuan Dynasty doesn't know how far away it is from me, and even if it is not far from me, it is a question whether he can find the exact location of the tomb, but fortunately there is Lao Zhao, who has learned some feng shui from his master Old Man Zhang, which should be of great help.

In order to guard against wild beasts, we found a relatively flat and open space and lit a bonfire. Beasts are afraid of fire, and as long as we keep the campfire, we should not encounter attacks from them.

I hastily ate some food and poured some liquor to keep out the cold. I don't know what time it is, and we are in this deep mountain and old forest, and time itself seems to stand still for us.

Of course, in the deep mountains and old forests, there are no entertainment projects in the city. After the meal, a few of us sat down together and started to talk again. Because of the drinking, we were all a little dizzy, and we were lazily reclining with our open jackets. Song Jin, in particular, seems to be even more incapable of drinking, and even has a big tongue when he speaks.

"Song Jin, you said that you are a college student, and you are not good at reading and reading, how can you think about this mysterious thing?" When I saw Song Jin's appearance, I had the intention to tease him.

"Brother Ling, I know all the words." Song Jin said with his tongue wide open.

"Those who know how to read and write, all the words know me." He continued, "That's why I'm looking for people I don't know, and people who don't know me."

In order to prevent danger, we decided to take turns keeping vigils. I was in a group with the pit, Lao Zhao and Song Jin were in a group. First of all, it was up to me and the pit to keep watch for the first half of the night. In this dark mountain forest, there are many dangers.
