Chapter 41 Remember to take your medicine on time
Four big crabs in a row, although they did not make him full, but they also enjoyed the blessing of the mouth.
"It's said that food can make people feel good, and that's true. After sucking the last trace of crab roe in the crab shell, Ye Xuan threw away the crab shell in his hand and touched his stomach with a satisfied expression.
After resting for a while, after eating, he put on his shoes and socks again, put on his backpack and said with a smile: "I have supplemented protein, and I have rested enough, so let's continue to set off, audience!"
Holding the stick, he continued to walk through the swamp.
Half-human tall weeds from it, from time to time a variety of birds fly in and out. In the distant alpine rainforest, the roar of an intermittent gibbon can be heard.
"Bang Bang!"
The sticks are constantly beating on the grass, splashing with water or mud, and repeating the same action for a long time is actually very tiring. At this moment, Ye Xuan's arm holding the wooden stick was already very sore, but he was still gritting his teeth and insisting, "Don't think that there are only poisonous snakes and poisonous insects in the Jianfengling Tropical Rainforest, there are still huge Burmese pythons living here! Especially in the humid swamps, Burmese pythons like to stay in this environment the most." At present, the Guinness Book of World Records has the largest Burmese python at 9.75 meters, but it is impossible to verify whether it is true or not. In general, the normal size of the Burmese python is between 5-6 meters, and there are few records of more than 7 meters. At present, the longest snake in the world is a reticulated python named 'Osmanthus', which is 7.3 meters long. ”
It is in the human nature to be afraid of snakes, and it seems to be an instinct inherited from time immemorial. A scientific research team once conducted a global survey, and among the creatures that humans fear the most, snakes ranked first with an absolute lead. Some of the people surveyed had not even seen snakes in real life.
Originally, hearing that there might be a python in the swamp had already made the audience feel cold on their backs, but now they learned that the python was five or six meters long, which made them feel their scalps tingle.
"Snake again, slow down, don't listen, farewell!"
"There is a Burmese python in the peak of the god TM, and the anchor can die if he doesn't brag about it?"
"It's really funny upstairs, he estimates that Burmese pythons only live in Myanmar. ”
"Burmese pythons live in Myanmar, and the Indian Ocean belongs to India, nothing is wrong with it, haha!"
"666, the patriarch blew up another retarded mind. ”
", a five- or six-meter python can eat people, right?"
"Really, I used to hear from the old people in our village that there were several pythons on the mountain, and they had eaten one person. ”
"Don't say it, patriarch, I get goosebumps at the mention of snakes. ”
Glancing at the barrage on his mobile phone, Ye Xuan explained: "Actually, don't look at many pythons that are very large, but there are very few incidents of cannibalism, and many of them are rumors or deliberately fake to attract attention. Just three years ago, villagers on the island of Pinang in Malaysia were attacked in the jungle by a 7-meter-long reticulated python. After strangling the villagers to death, the reticulated python originally planned to swallow him, but was killed by the village chief who rushed to hear the news with a gun. ”
"At that time, when the village chief arrived, the reticulated python had actually begun to devour the villagers, but the villagers' shoulders were too wide and stuck in their throats to swallow. This is the only confirmed case of python cannibalism in the world. And through this incident, it can be seen that it is quite difficult for pythons to devour adults. Because the reticulated python is relatively slender, the head is much smaller than the body, and the reticulated python was 7.13 meters at that time, according to this data, it is inferred that unless the length reaches 10 meters, or the 8-meter amazon python, it can swallow an adult without barriers. ”
Whether it is a ten-meter reticulated python or an eight-meter Amazonian python, it seems that it is almost impossible to exist at present. Decades ago, someone offered a reward of $50,000 to find the Amazon Python, which is more than nine meters long, but after so many years, no one has been able to get this bounty.
Snakes are cold-blooded ectotherms, and today's earth, whether it is the ambient temperature or oxygen concentration, is not enough to support the python to grow to more than 8 meters. There may be pythons longer than 'osmanthus' in some unexplored wilderness, but 8 meters is already the limit, and if you want to exceed this length, unless the environment in which the python lives can reach the standard of 60 million years ago before history.
Hearing Ye Xuan's explanation, the audience couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but at this moment, they saw his voice change and continued: "Although it is difficult for pythons to eat people, it is easy to kill people. Pythons are non-venomous, so there is only one way for them to hunt food, and that is to use the power of terror to strangle their prey alive. According to the strength analysis of different python species, the three-meter-long Amazon Python can easily strangle an adult man to death. Burmese pythons require four meters, while reticulated pythons need at least five meters. Of course, these are just theoretical figures, and if you accidentally get strangled by the neck, any python with a body size of more than two meters can easily take you out. ”
"Forget it, the wilderness is too dangerous for me. ”
"No blowing, no black, I used to be strangled by a black snake more than two meters long, and my whole hand was almost useless. ”
"It is said that pythons do not need to strangle people directly, as long as the blood vessels under the skin cannot circulate, they can make people die of lack of oxygen. ”
"Please, don't say it, what Lao Tzu is most afraid of is snakes. ”
Frightened, I quickly smoked a cigarette to suppress the shock. ”
"I just checked Baidu, and the world's longest reticulated python is 14 meters long. ”
"God TM 14 meters, do you know what this concept is?"
"Titan Python: 14 meters?
"Brother 14 meters, don't go, I have two brain fragments here, remember to take medicine on time. ”
Glancing at the barrage, seeing that some viewers said that a 14-meter-long snake, Ye Xuan couldn't help but complain, "Brother, what is the concept of a 14-meter-long python, it is almost equivalent to the height of a five-story building." At present, the largest known snake in the world is the titan python more than 60 million years ago, which is generally 15 meters long. Generally speaking, a python of this length, let alone a human, can even be swallowed by a Nile crocodile in one bite. ”
Time passed little by little, and before he knew it, Ye Xuan had come to the edge of the forest swamp, and the muddy mud under his feet had begun to gradually turn into solid ground.
Forest swamps are destined to be not too large due to environmental reasons, and in large rainforests, such swamps will only appear in low-lying areas, with large numbers and small areas.
So far, the number of people in the live broadcast room has stabilized at 1,200, and it can reach 1,500 at the peak. Although compared with those big anchors who often have tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, Ye Xuan's audience seems a little insignificant, but he dares to pat his chest and assure that 90% of them are his loyal fans.
However, judging from today's situation, the growth rate of the audience seems to have reached a bottleneck, and only a few dozen new viewers were attracted in a whole day. Mainly because there is no recommendation and publicity, and his live video at station B also needs a certain amount of time to brew. Ye Xuan believes that when his reputation accumulates to a certain extent, it will definitely attract a wave of blowouts.
