Chapter 2: Island Survival Surrounded by snakes
Just when Gao Yan closed his eyes, motionless and desperate to die, his ears suddenly became quiet. I couldn't hear the "squeak" of the snakes, nor the "squeak" of their forward friction.
He opened his eyes curiously, but found that the large and small groups of snakes less than a few meters away from him were all besieging a semicircle in front of him, neither advancing nor retreating, and all the snake letters were converged.
The group of snakes that arrived first let the snakes come after them and crawl onto their bodies. The serpent, which was late, climbed on the head of the one who came before it, and likewise held its breath as if it were worshipping.
Soon, in front of Gao Yan, a few meters away, a high wall of snakeheads was formed. They weren't dead, but none of them were moving.
At this time, what appeared in front of Gao Yan was an arc, layer upon layer of overlapping small eyes, glowing with different lights, staring at him deadly. They surrounded Gao Yan, as if they were waiting for an order, and then they attacked them in groups.
Gao Yan knew that he was already a mortal person, so he didn't know that he was afraid at this time. If you were a normal person, you would be scared to death.
He was powerless and had no intention of moving any longer, until he got tired of seeing the wall in front of him of all the snakeheads of various sizes, and closed his eyes again and waited for death.
The night was quiet, and the waves hit the reef on the shore with their proper beat. Gao Yan closed his eyes and waited for death but waited for him to fall asleep, and the first thought he had when he woke up was that he should be eaten and wiped clean. But the sound of the waves and the bright moon on the sea prove that he is still alive.
Damn, why are these snakeheads still there? When he saw the wall of snakeheads that he was tired of seeing before he fell asleep, he cursed in anger.
If you give you food and you don't eat, you don't eat and don't leave, is this going to play like that? Gao Yan is not afraid at all now, he has already broken the jar once, and now he is still afraid of a hair.
If you don't go, uncle, I'll go. If you don't eat me, I'll find something to eat. Gao Yan hadn't eaten for a few days, and his stomach was already protesting. At this time, Meimei slept a lot and recovered a lot of physical strength. He tried to move his legs, and as long as he could walk, he first had to solve the problem of hunger.
But where did he go? Behind him was the sea, and in front of him was a semicircular wall of snakeheads, and he would certainly not be able to tear down the wall.
But no matter what, if he wants to go, he must first stand up. When he retracted his legs behind him and sat up, the wall of the snake's head in front of him suddenly collapsed silently.
But before he could be happy, the snakehead wall gradually stood up again after retreating for a distance, although it was not as tall as just now, but it was only a matter of time. Do you want to wait for me to die before you come to eat me?
Thinking of this, Gao Yan had the courage to move forward half a position, and the snake head wall really retreated and slowly stood up at the same distance. Gao Yan didn't want to wait for them to be tall any longer, he stood up and tried to take a step forward. The wall of snakeheads should fall in response.
"You dare to eat me? ”
After two temptations, Gao Yan fully understood that these seemingly ferocious poisonous snakes were afraid of themselves. He walked away, and as long as he did not die, the snake would not dare to eat it. But as long as the snake doesn't eat him, how can he die?
Gao Yan walked quickly, and those snakes suffered.
Especially those small snakes, although the small snake turned around and was much more flexible than the big snake, but the big snake turned around, and the huge body behind it immediately followed the wriggling and curled forward, and the speed was also very fast, and the little snake died in the curling and crushing of the big snake, and a large number of people died after a while.
Why am I so stupid? Gao Yan looked at the dead snake and stopped, he didn't eat ready-made, fresh snake meat, and wanted to eat grass? He bent down and picked up a snake the thickness of his thumb, broke the snake skin with his teeth, and then ripped off the whole snake skin, and a fresh snake meat appeared in his hand.
In the process of peeling the skin, he was afraid that the smell of blood would arouse the wildness of the snakes, but from beginning to end, the snakes that ran away did not dare to come back, but only stayed on the periphery. Gao Yan had no time to care about it at this time, and he looked down for stones.
Cooked without fire, the tender snake meat can only be eaten raw, but if you eat snake venom, you are looking for death. Only the internal organs and venom sacs of poisonous snakes are poisonous, and the flesh of snakes is not poisonous.
Gao Yan found a sharp stone tip, cut open the soft belly of the snake, and removed a large section of the snake's head and internal organs.
One is not enough, another one, too small snakes are not satisfied, then find a bigger one, anyway, there are many dead snakes under the feet.
Thousands of snakes, surrounded by him, stared at the little green eyes, watching a human skin and eat meat of his own kind. They were all in the moonlight, and none of them dared to step forward. On the contrary, the radius around him is constantly expanding.
I just woke up from sleep, ate snake meat again, drank snake blood, and Gao Yan, who was full of food and drink, only felt full of energy.
He simply didn't do anything, found some dead grass and crushed it, and found various stones of different colors, and collided two stones against each other.
After tinkering for a long time, Gao Yan finally lit a bonfire far from the woods, and after eating the raw snake meat, he came to eat it again. Until he couldn't move until he couldn't eat, he slept comfortably again.
When he woke up again, the wind and sun on the island were beautiful, and he was full of energy, feeling that he had not been so good in more than ten years. It seems that this snake meat is really a big supplement, Gao Yan clenched his little fist, and his strength was obviously doubled, which was very different from usual.
If I stay here for a longer period of time and eat snake meat every day, within two months, I will definitely have more strength than Erfat. But he just thinks about it, what he is most anxious about now is to find a way to get out of here quickly, his sister must be in a hurry if she doesn't see him for a few days.
The first thing he had to do was to find someone, to know where he was, but he walked from day to night, and he didn't find a single living person.
Gao Yan wanted to come and go, but he had to go deep into the mountains of the island to look for it, and he wanted to find fishermen on the beach, but he was afraid that he would not find it.
What makes him hate and feel relieved is that these more and more snakes always follow him without abandoning him.
He stopped the snake and was quiet, and he walked and moved. With so many poisonous snakes on his way, no one will be afraid, but it is also a benefit, that is, he has a dead snake to eat at any time, and he doesn't need to catch it at all. As long as you patiently light the fire, the fragrant grilled snake meat is ready to be enjoyed.
The place where Gao Yan was washed ashore was the edge of the island, and he had to go to the mountains to find someone, and he walked for several days. It wasn't until later that he discovered the benefits of following this big snake swarm.
That is, no matter what wild animals are large or small, when they see a group of snakes, they will run away. Those who run slowly are not enough for the snakes to stuff their teeth.
This time, he found a problem, this group of snakes is not afraid to eat live creatures, what jackals, tigers, leopards, wild boars and hares, as long as they fall into the group of snakes, there are no bones left that will not be eaten.
This made him wonder, why did this group of snakes just follow him but not eat themselves? Isn't his meat delicious?
If you can't figure it out, even if you don't understand it, he will earn an extra day of life now. These days, he feels that his strength has at least multiplied several times compared to the original, which can be regarded as an additional gain.
After many days of trekking, Gao Yan came to the foot of the mountain, but he still could not see the village and the hunters, and he even wondered if there would be people on the island.
His only hope now is to climb over the mountain, and maybe there will be a family on the other side of the mountain.
Just as he began to climb the mountain, before he reached the halfway point of the mountain, the problem came, the number of snakes that had been accompanying him and never abandoned, not far and not close, was much less at once.
To be exact, there are fewer small snakes, and they are not as dense and ubiquitous as they used to be. Nowadays, it is difficult to find small snakes in the snake group, but the large snakes are significantly more numerous and getting bigger.
Are you afraid that I will eat it, or will you be scared away? They are all gone, and the big snakes can't crush each other, and I can't beat them to death, so what will I eat in the future? The animals I met here have all been eaten up by the big snakes, and I ...... I eat grass.
Gao Yan gritted his teeth, no longer bothered about whether there were baby snakes in the snake group, and continued to climb to the top of the mountain.
You can't just want to eat snake meat and grow your strength, so you don't go home to accompany your sister, right? Thinking of her sister, Gao Yan became more and more anxious, and it has been more than ten days, and he has never left his sister behind for so many days.
Gao Yan's heart was anxious, and the pace under his feet became faster and faster, but the closer he got to the halfway up the mountain, the more irritable his mood became, as if the blood all over his body was rioting.
He stopped, steadied his mind, he didn't want to step into the air and throw his life away in the mountains of this unknown island. After resting for a while, Gao Yan climbed up again and came to the top of the mountain, looking into the distance. At this look, he was discouraged again.
What Gao Yan saw was full of undulating mountains, and he didn't know where to go, which was the right direction to go down the mountain.
Standing at the top of the mountain, he realized that the mountain he had just climbed was just a small mountain. The five mountains in the distance that are directly into the clouds and cannot be seen are the main peaks of this mountain range.
In front of the hill on which he was standing, there was a large open field, and it was full of huge old trees. In the center of the ancient tree, there is an even thicker and taller ancient tree, protruding from the forest sea, as if it is about to compete with the five peaks.
Even if you stand tall on the top of the mountain, you can't see the crown of the big tree clearly. In addition to the five towering hills, this tree is the tallest.
Dry birds, I'll climb up to the big tree first and see where there are people.
The five mountains are not only towering into the clouds, but also far away. Gao Yan didn't know which mountain to climb, so he simply didn't climb any of them. Directly led a group of big snakes and walked in the direction of the giant tree.
Along the way, he ate and walked, and he didn't have the leisure to check the strange flowers and plants around him.
But then again, he just has the leisure to look at it, even if he tramples on the precious herbs and medicines, he doesn't know it. Even when he was hungry and ate grass, he also chose to have other animals eat it, so he dared to try to eat it carefully, and after tasting it, he dared to eat with confidence.
