Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Shu'a
While Ye Guangji was looking for the Blood Orchid, a hunter learned that there was a huge python in the rainforest, so he sailed alone to hunt it. With such a big rare prey, it will live a life of fame, fortune and money.
Monkeys commonly found in the rainforest are used as bait, and the boats that bleed on trees are hidden nearby, and there are rare animals caught on the boat, and they all seem to feel the danger and scream desperately. The hunter was holding a spear, and he didn't expect to catch it alive, just get the carcass of the python and go back.
"Come on! Come out, baby! ”
The hunter tensed and licked his lips excitedly, his eyes scanning the murky and calm water with a keen eye. After squatting for a long time, the water surface swelled with subtle ripples in all directions, and he raised his spear against his shoulder, ready to shoot at any time.
Under the surface of the water, the python bounced up and bit the monkey corpse, and its mouth was hooked by the big iron hook inside the monkey corpse. This python was at the peak of the race and was about to break through the shackles, and the head of the snake bigger than the human head screamed desperately, and the snake body writhed back and forth like waves.
"Haha developed, hit!"
The hunter aimed at the snake's head and raised his gun to shoot, and a few bullets smashed the python's head to pieces, and the snake's body fell into the water, and a stream of blood red scattered in the water. He hurriedly entered the cabin and steered the boat closer, jumped into the water without hesitation to salvage, and crawled to the boat with the snake corpse in a few minutes.
He was rejoicing that the trip had gone smoothly, thinking about what to do with the money after the sale. Not noticing that behind him, a larger python poked its head out. The hiss of the snake spitting sound behind him, and when he was so excited, he did not forget to be alert in the wild, and did not hesitate to pounce forward to avoid the attack of the giant snake.
Grab the gun you just threw on the ground and block the giant mouth of the giant snake that pounces downward. Only when you get close can you understand the fear that goes deep into the bone marrow, natural snakes are synonymous with fear, and even more so when facing a threat to life.
The hunter used all his strength to retreat the serpent into the water, and the gun stuck in the snake's mouth was carried into the water by the serpent. He was still greedy at this time, desperately dragging the snake corpse into the cabin. Close the hatch and want to sail away.
This is also considered his bad luck, snakes generally have their own territory, except in the spring breeding season, they will gather together to take on the responsibility of breeding. The blood spilled stimulates the ferocity of the passing python, and reproduction is a physically demanding thing, and it is normal to have a full meal before reproduction.
The hunter started the double-decker wooden boat and headed out of the rainforest. Just when he breathed a sigh of relief and thought he could escape, the violent shaking almost made him unsteady.
"Damn it, a ship as heavy as this can be hit. Hey, hey, hey, do the useless work! Tired to death, you can't knock over! The hunter sneered loudly with a trembling voice of fear, expressing the horror of life and death just now.
The serpent seemed to have given up on attacking the ship again, the murky waters calmed down, and the ship stopped shaking and left at full speed. Hunters keep an eye on the rudder, and the Amazon River, which runs through the rainforest, is not as calm as it seems, and accidents can easily occur if you are not careful.
"Smack!!"
The glass on the left side of the cabin shattered, and the snakehead burst through the window and pounced on the hunter who was concentrating on steering the ship. Biting the hunter on the shoulder, he tried to drag him out of the boat, but the hunter grabbed the rocker next to him and smashed it into the snake's head. forced the head of the snake to let go of its big mouth and retreat overboard.
The hunter turned around and ran to get tools to seal all the windows, including the one that looked ahead. The joystick he had used to attack the serpent was the brake that controlled the rudder of the ship. The boat was now anchored by a tree in the middle of the river.
"Damn! Damn it! Damn it! ”
The giant snake is too cunning to be wiser than the python he hunted, how can he know that the snake that breaks through the racial limit and the snake that does not break through the limit are completely two species. The hunter can't deal with the other party, so he can only curse in an impotent rage.
He collected the weapons he could use and entered the captain's room, locking the door and looking for something to block it. The captain's quarters are in the center of the ship and are the safest place on the ship. Inside, there is a remote talk radio, a desk and a bed for resting.
"Help, help......"
The hunter kept sending a call for help to the outside world, and the intercom signal was also on, hoping that someone nearby would come and rescue him. The desire to get rich has long been thrown out of the sky by him, and now living is the top priority.
The rainy season in spring is the time when pythons are common, or when ships are reluctant to sail. He kept sending distress signals but did not respond, but the serpent kept harassing him near the ship, making him unable to sleep and living in fear every day.
At one point he fell asleep and was broken through the window by a serpent to the door of the captain's quarters. The sound of the serpent slamming on the door woke him up, and he shot the other party to avoid being killed in the snake's mouth.
The hunter lasted until the rainy season passed, when he ran out of ammunition and had to risk going out to feed on the rare animals he caught. The captain's room waited for dusk as if it hadn't opened, barely enough for the hunter to see the paper. All the electricity is supplied to the radio station, and the signal for help is sent out at all times.
He was dressed in blackened white half-sleeves, his tired face was covered with fine sweat, and he wrote a diary or a bereaved family. Suddenly, there was an electric current on the radio, proving that someone was trying to contact him.
"I'm Paul, hey, are you asking for help? Where are your locations? ”
The human voice sounded in the chaotic captain's room, and the hunter put down the pencil in the record in a daze, and grabbed the microphone with trembling hands, he was too excited to catch it several times, but finally held it in his hands, and handed his head over to talk.
"It's me, it's me, my boat broke down and ran aground in the middle of the water. Please bring more people, that monster is terrifying! I'm ......"
"What happened to you? Was it a natural disaster or a biological attack? ”
"It's a python, a very big python. Please, come on, I'll give you whatever you want. ”
The hunter was thrilled, Paul was the best hunter in the area, and he would be able to be rescued himself. "It's very big, and it's amazingly intelligent."
"I'll rush over ......"
The entire ship began to shake, and the floor of the captain's cabin was cracked by the crash. The hunter knew that he was finished, and if he fell into the water and was devoured by a python, he would be worse off than dead. Without hesitation, he put down the microphone, took his revolver, opened the door of the cabin and pushed it out.
The entire floor at the bottom of the captain's cabin was lifted open by pythons, and the river poured into the cabin to flood the contents inside. The radio station emitted the sizzling sound of electricity and the spark of the broken circuit, and the signal was completely like letting the people who rushed to the rescue know that something had happened to him.
"Brute, you damn it!"
The hunter climbed all the way to the ship's lookout and signal pole, his revolver in his hand, nervously watching the movement below.
The serpent has the intention of making a head, and it is confronted with a bullet. The number of bullets was limited, and when the last bullet was left in the revolver, he gritted his teeth against his temple. Glaring angrily, the giant snake pulled the trigger, and with a bang, the gun rang out, and the corpse fell and was bitten by the giant snake.
After swallowing the hunter's corpse, the serpent did not choose to leave. Instead, the abandoned wooden boat is used as a nest, where a pregnant female snake thrives in the cabin.
……
"Haha, another blue-level superb, not bad."
Ye Guangji was in a small rift valley, and he found it in a small area where the sun could shine. This clump of blood orchids looked like about seven or eight flowers, and it was obviously a little malnourished, and the blood-dripping petals were not so red, and the production of slurry was small, and there were fewer snakes to attract.
In the past seven years, he has searched the depths of the entire rainforest, and a total of three blood orchids have been added, two of the blue grade and one of which has barely reached the purple grade. Still in a relatively peripheral place, I encountered the Shua people in the world introduction.
The man-eating snake they worshipped was as thick as a van, with black-green, black-green scales close to ink. When he saw the other party's tail exposed in his sleep, he chose to retreat without hesitation. That kind of behemoth is not what his size can compete with, and it will be enough for the other party to eat a full meal.
"Hmph, it's time to gather that man-eating snake, I'm not bad now! I've been coveting that purple-level blood orchid for a long time! ”
Ye Guangji's snake face had a cruel smile on his face, it was hard to imagine that such a hideous snake head could make such a rich expression. He searched for the memories of the day he met the Shu'a people, and crawled in the direction where the Shu'a tribe was located. Wherever the birds and beasts were safe, they were not found by such a huge snake body passing by.
The snake body grew a layer of green under his deliberate control, allowing the huge body to be better hidden in nature. Wherever you pass, you cut a path through the lush rainforest, and entering the river will make the river rise by a few points.
The area where the Shua tribe is located cannot be considered deep in the rainforest, but it can also be considered deep in the periphery of the rainforest. Few outsiders know about it, only research teams or adventurers come back to explore. It has always maintained a primitive way of life, more indigenous tribes than indigenous tribes, and there are totemic beliefs and god sacrifices.
Ye Guangji went to the sacrificial place of the Shua tribe, which was not included in the scope of the tribal settlement. Even their clansmen rarely come in normal times, and only the days of sacrifice and feeding man-eating snakes will appear. Their houses are very distinctive, like Patrick's stone house, with small openings mostly underground, and the walls of the surface buildings are extremely hard.
His size is inferior to the other party, but in terms of intelligence, it is completely at the crushing level, and even his ability to hide his aura is stronger than it. The other party is also a python, but it is not ruled out that the possibility of evolving a venom gland is not ruled out, after all, the magical ability of the blood orchid slurry can improve in any way.
Ye Guangji chose a location in advance to lay a trap. Order the hounds to dig out the trench and secure the stake barbed inside. There are also sharp knives that hide under the foliage on the surface. He himself is not afraid of the other party, and he will have a draw without external assistance, which does not match the expectation of killing the other party.
