Chapter 16: Natural Enemies and Fire
I have long heard that snakes can suck their prey, and I grew up in the city, but today I see it for the first time, no wonder the big red frog is motionless, eighty percent of it is sucked by this natural enemy.
Although the snake was also transparent, it was definitely different from the copper pipe, without an inverted nose, two sharp fangs, and the snake letter kept moving in its mouth. The model is also smaller than the large insects in the copper pipes, with a diameter of 20 centimeters at the thickest point.
Although it is also a big snake, my fat brother and I are not very afraid because of the last fight. What's more, its target is now not us, but the big red frog.
After a stalemate for about five minutes, the big snake finally got its mouth down, like an arrow shot from the air, and bit the big red frog in one bite, and the fat brother and I were also trembling.
At first, the big red frog also symbolically struggled a few times, and after kicking its legs, it was motionless, and the snake's venom may have worked.
Then the big white snake began to feast. This ratio is a bit incongruous, the red frog basin is the size, the snake's head is the size of a football, and the size of the snake has already occupied the mouth of the big snake when it eats it, and we want to see how the snake eats it.
The fat brother also smiled and said: "The lion opens his mouth, and he is not afraid of supporting himself to death." ”
I also nodded and said, "According to the current situation, this snake is going to give up its prey, and the Chihuahua wants to eat African elephants, just kidding." Let's stay away, don't snake master didn't eat well, I'm not happy, go back and give us a bite. ”
Then the disgusting scene was staged, the snake's mouth opened wider and wider, and finally it cracked its neck, and swallowed the big red frog whole, so that my throat and eyes were retching, and I almost vomited the biscuit I had just eaten.
The red frog was stuck in the throat of the big snake, and the big snake's body trembled, and it looked like it was in pain, but it was still trying. After lasting more than twenty minutes, the red frog finally fully entered the body of the big snake, and the snake was transparent, so we could also see it after entering.
With the shaking of the snake's body, the red frog began to move backwards from the front of the snake's body, and the parts of the snake's body that the red frog passed by were bulging as if it was blowing, and the red frog was not dead in the process, but actually moved in the snake's belly. After a long journey of about two meters, it finally stopped at the middle and rear sections of the snake's body.
After the whole swallowing process was over, the big white snake also lay on the ground motionless. It doesn't look like it's going to die, it's waiting to be digested.
When the fat brother saw that the opportunity had come, he walked over with a smile, aimed the arrow in his hand at the snake's head, and said, "You are too dangerous to keep you." Then he pierced it, and the arrow pierced the head of the serpent, and pinned the serpent firmly to the ground.
I handed over the scimitar, and the fat brother raised the knife and cut the snake in half, and the severed snake body kept swinging on the ground.
Later, the fat brother said that he would cut open the snake body and rescue the red frog, but I stopped him. Not only is it disgusting to watch, but if the red frog is also poisonous, we are just bored. I wiped off the scimitar and urged the fat brother to keep walking, so we started the journey again.
This road is too time-consuming, look at this and touch that, the speed of travel is actually not much, according to the speed of travel, it is already midnight outside.
I complained to the fat brother and said, "You don't know how to buy two watches? I don't even know the time now. ”
The fat brother smiled and said, "I forgot, I'm used to using my mobile phone, don't you remember it." ”
While talking, he walked more than ten meters, and the fat brother said "eh" again.
I asked the fat brother impatiently, "What's the matter?" ”
The fat brother said, "There are frogs, I see red shadows again." ”
After listening to the fat brother's words, I also subconsciously looked for it with a flashlight, and saw that on the stones on the ground, there were two or three big red frogs, which were no different from the previous one. Looking at it, another one jumped over, and there were more and more of them after a while.
This thing, it's pretty cute to look at one or two, but if you look at it too much, your body will be numb. I used my flashlight again to shine in the direction where the red frog was coming from, and this time the goosebumps all rose on my body. On the wall on the side of the river, the red frog was coming out of the crack in the stone.
I've seen mice, no matter how big they are, their bodies can become very soft, and they can get through the seals under the door almost next to the ground. The red frog was like a mouse, burrowing out of a small rock crevice, and the whole wall, tens of thousands of red frogs, at the same time blowing up balloons, the scene was more terrifying than seeing a tiger.
The fat brother and I ran forward, and we didn't care about the potholed ground under our feet, and when we were about to run to the end, we looked back, and in just two minutes, the ground behind us was completely covered by red frogs, and those red frogs seemed to run for their lives, trampling on each other, and we watched the cool air on our bodies for a while.
Looking at the stone wall again, it is no longer the red frog that comes out, but the white snake that eats the red frog, and the speed of drilling is much faster than that of the red frog, and it is also too many to count.
The two of us immediately understood that this was witnessing a natural enemy fire, and we saw the white snake that came out first, opened its big mouth and flew directly into the air to the frogs, biting one first, and began to swallow as soon as it was wrapped around its body. The snake in the back also squeezed out desperately, for fear that it would be too late to eat. After several minutes, there was no sign of stopping, the red frogs were scattered, and the white snakes kept drilling out of the wall, and the battlefield spread more and more widely, and it began to approach me and the fat brother.
Aware of this crisis, we gave up watching and began to look for a way out. What I never expected was that there was no way out here. We walked this river from beginning to end, there was no fork in the road at all, there was a dead end on that side, a cliff on this side, and in a few minutes, we would be swallowed up by an army of frogs and snakes.
I asked the fat brother, "What should I do?" There is no way. ”
The fat brother said: "What I just thought was that the side where the toads came over must be empty, and when they have had enough, let's smash the stone wall over, but I didn't expect this to be over." ”
Seeing, a few red frogs have jumped at our feet, and a few snakes that have come from behind have also moved towards us.
I ran to the mouth of the river and looked down, it was still the same sinkhole, still the same little blue light flashing, and just below our cave entrance there was a small piece of stone protruding from it, like a very small balcony, smaller than the smallest balcony I have ever seen.
I pointed there and said to the fat brother, "Don't worry about it, let's go down first, wait a little longer and climb up again." ”
The fat brother nodded and said, "That's it." ”
We were afraid that we would not have enough time, so we directly fixed it with climbing nails and put the rope to go down, or I went down first, and the fat brother followed me.
Before landing, I stepped on my feet hard, and found that there was no problem, so I landed on both feet, raised my head and shouted to the fat brother to come down.
The fat brother put the rope around his waist and also slid down.
I saw that the fat brother was not in any danger, so I lowered my head and looked around, and found that where we were standing, it turned out to be the mouth of a river, and in front of me was a spacious river, and it seemed that the wall of this sinkhole was like a honeycomb, and there were tunnels everywhere that could be crossed. If all the rivers are filled with water, the sinkhole should be filled in a very short time.
I ran a few steps forward into the river, then turned around and shouted happily to the fat brother, "Come down, there is a road below." At this time, I saw that the fat brother's legs had appeared on the top of the cave, and then slowly fell.
The fat brother shouted as he went down: "Look for the lighter, there is a snake, and a snake is following down the rope." ”
I hurriedly rummaged through the lighter in my bag.
Just when the fat brother's feet were completely on the ground, the piece I stepped on before, the protruding stepping stone at the entrance of the hole, suddenly loosened.
The fat brother stood on it, shook his body back and forth a few times, and then leaned back along with the broken stone.
