Volume 1 Chapter 36: Entering the Serpent's Lair

Before I could see if Iron Man had fallen, the second brother had already pulled me into the hole in front of me.

The three of us are still immersed in the giant python entrenched at the bottom of the valley, I was very shocked, I didn't expect that the previous legend was actually true, there was really a hundred-meter-long giant python hidden in Wulong Mountain.

In the end, it was Da Wu who broke the silence: "Second master, third master, did you see it just now, that giant python seems to be ..... Seems to be molting? ”

My eyesight is not particularly good, and in the critical situation just now, I didn't pay much attention to the giant python, and Dawu said that it was molting and I was not sure.

But the second brother seemed to see it, he nodded, his face was a little gloomy: "We are blind cats who bumped into dead rats this time, and it is very likely that we have encountered the last giant python in this mountain.... When it finishes shedding its skin, it will go through the water and enter the river, and then the mountain may collapse, so we have to find a way to get out quickly. ”

We got off the stone platform, and the structure here was very different from the tunnel we had seen before we had even crossed the ropeway.

The tunnel is much taller than before, and the walls are smooth, with the stone as if it had been specially polished, with few sharp edges and corners.

There are many forks in the tunnel, we are in the middle of a fork, I randomly found a fork in the road flashlight to shine inside, and was surprised to find that these forks are still very long tunnels, but both sides of the tunnel are arch-shaped holes, like the earthen cave in Yan'an.

Hunched over into an arched hole, there was nothing in it, but there were many pieces of rubble on the ground, and some unknown black strips, five or six meters long, less than a meter short, a bit like kerosene-stained hemp rope.

I looked at the tunnels at the other forks and saw that they were all laid out like this, and I said, "Could this be the ruins of the Six Fingers?" These arches are almost 1.8 meters long, and the space in the arches is large enough to accommodate two or three people to live normally. ”

After observing for a while, the second brother shook his head at me: "Impossible.... It is impossible for people to live in this kind of arched house, and there are no windows in these arched houses, that is, only one person lives in each arch, which adds up to dozens of arches and at least dozens of people. With so many people in such a small space, it's easy to run out of oxygen without vents. ”

What the second brother said is not unreasonable, but if these arch holes are not inhabited, what are they used for?

Now it can be determined that these arch holes are the ruins left by the six-fingered clan, but they will not build some useless arch holes, not to mention that this is in the mountain, to dig out dozens of such arch holes, it can be said that it will take a lot of manpower and time, is it to dig out these arch holes are used to see?

The second brother didn't seem to be able to figure out this problem, he took a flashlight and looked around, and then Dawu suddenly said: "Third Master Qiu, have you smelled a strange smell.... I don't know how to describe the smell. ”

After listening to Dawu's words, I sniffed hard, but I didn't smell what Dawu said. I guess it's because I smoke too much, and my sense of smell becomes less sensitive after rhinitis.

The second brother also sniffed hard, he didn't smell anything, he smoked more cigarettes than me.

But when I went into the archway and sniffed harder, I did smell a strange stench. It's like the kennel I kept at home when I was a child, and the smell of livestock was fishy and dirty.

I squatted down and picked up a piece of "hemp rope" on the ground that looked like it had been soaked in kerosene, and the strong fishy smell was particularly obvious, and it seemed that these smells came from this "hemp rope".

I tried to cut it with a dagger, and it turned out to be very tough and not easy to cut. It took me some effort, and when I cut it, I found that the incision was very conspicuous.

I squatted on the ground and stared at it carefully for a long time, but I only felt familiar, and I didn't remember what it was.

Suddenly, at this moment, the second brother suddenly shouted from the arch hole behind me: "Qiuzi, Dawu get out of here, this TM is a snake nest!" ”

Hearing the second brother mention the word snake nest, I watched the pupils of the "hemp rope" cut off by the nest in front of me rapidly widen, and then I felt a chill all over my body.

Where is this hemp rope, this is pure and wilted snake skin!

At this time, I also reacted that these arch holes are really not used to live in people, I'm afraid this is a snake nest used by the six-fingered clan to raise snakes!

At the same time, I suddenly heard a "rustling" sound in my ears, followed by the sound of spitting snake hyacinth!

"It's sun, run, all the snakes are out!"

Dawu was also shouting outside, and soon I heard him shooting.

I threw down the snake skin and ran out, and in the dim light I found the snake wriggling all over the ground where we had just entered!

At this time, the retreat route has been blocked by these snakes, and there are snakes crawling in a steady stream from the hole we came in just now, and I suddenly realized that there may be more than the sky-swallowing python in the valley just now, and there are many small snakes like this below.

That's a snake valley after all!

Dawu bit the flashlight in his mouth and kept shooting at the ground, and a snake died, and immediately a snake crawled over their corpses towards us.

"Don't be stunned, come here, the exit is here!" The second brother shouted to me behind me, I took a few steps back, and immediately ran towards the second brother.

The tunnel where the second brother is located does not have an arch, but the tunnel is very narrow, and the second brother hurriedly walked forward with a flashlight, and I followed him. Outside, Dawu retreated towards us as he strafed, but as soon as he stopped shooting those little snakes, he pounced madly forward.

I was in a hurry, took out a few cold fireworks from my bag, lit them and shouted to Dawu: "Dawu, come in!" ”

Dawu put away his gun and ran directly at me, I took the opportunity to throw the cold smoke in my hand into the pile of snakes, and those snakes instantly burned, and the air was filled with the smell of burnt meat.

But soon those snakes also poured into this tunnel, and Dawu said while changing the bullets: "The third master continues to throw, don't stop, there is a big guy outside." ”

I took out the few cold fireworks left in my bag and quickly threw them into the snake pile, and all the snakes in the tunnel were burned, and soon there were no more snakes rushing towards us. But the next moment, my legs were so frightened that my legs were weak, and a snake eye the size of a watermelon suddenly appeared at the mouth of the tunnel, and the snake eye stared coldly at the three of us in the tunnel.

This snake was black and golden, and although it was not as big as the sky-swallowing python in the valley just now, it was still thirty or forty meters long.

Fortunately, it was too big to get into this tunnel.

The corner of my eye twitched, we had stumbled into the snake's nest by mistake.....
