Volume 1 Chapter 37: The Vajra Python
We moved quickly deeper into the tunnel, and the black gold python outside was holding its head and trying to shove it into the tunnel, but it was too large to squeeze in.
"The snakes in this mountain have become sperm, and if they are seen by those scientific researchers outside, they can't catch them and put them in the zoo..... But I know this snake, it turns out that I have seen a book of "Hundred Snakes" on the stall, this black and gold python is called the diamond python, which is generally very common in tropical jungles, and this kind of size is actually not rare in its category...."
Dawu continued to shoot a few small snakes that squeezed in with a gun, and said to me and my second brother.
The second brother had a gloomy face, and his voice was extremely low: "I'm afraid that this six-fingered clan is not like the legend, worshipping the snake after Jackie Chan." According to the current situation, it is estimated that it is a race that breeds snakes, cultivating the largest snakes among tens of thousands of snake species, and when they grow to a large enough size, they use their faded snake skin as the material for the secret art of prolonging life..... There's no dragon at all, it's just a story made up by the Six-Fingered Clan! β
That's right, but the giant python in the valley is too huge, and what kind of snake does it take to grow like it with a snake body of hundreds of battles?
I muttered in my heart, there was a sky-swallowing python outside, and on the other hand, there was a mountain flood that was about to start, and the current Wulong Mountain could be said to be full of dangers. Besides, we are still in the snake's nest, and it is unknown whether we can get out.
The tunnel was only about seventy or eighty meters long, and soon we were out of it and in a big cave.
From the side of the cave we walked out of I saw a large rock that seemed to be used to block the mouth of the tunnel.
The three of us began to look at the new cave with flashlights, but it still seemed to be a man-made space, and it was not appropriate to call it a cave.
"Push this stone to the entrance of the cave first, and block the hole, and then the snakes will be in trouble after them."
The second brother pointed to the big rock, and then the three of us began to push the boulder hard.
However, the stone was so big and heavy that the three of us couldn't move far after pushing for a long time, and finally only covered half of the hole.
At this time, there was another "rustling" sound in the tunnel, and I knew that the snakes were chasing after them again. Dawu hurriedly took out the last two cold fireworks in his bag and threw them into the tunnel, which could delay for a while.
We continued to push the stones, but immediately we felt the whole tunnel tremble slightly, followed by a loud "bang", as if something had exploded.
I glanced into the tunnel, and in the darkness were two lantern-like eyes, and I cursed: "Grass, push and push, that diamond python is fucking in!" β
When the second brother and Dawu heard this, they pushed the stone door vigorously, and their faces turned red.
Seeing that the vajra python was about to rush over, I picked up my second brother's backpack that was still on the ground, took out a flare from it, loaded it with a flare, and shot it at the tunnel.
The flare exploded in the tunnel, and I didn't know how powerful the flare was at close range, so I stared straight into the tunnel to see if the adamantia would be burned to death.
"Akiko, close your eyes quickly, your eyes will be blind!"
As soon as the second brother shouted, I quickly closed my eyes, and a second later, the bright light suddenly illuminated the entire tunnel and the cave we were in. Even when my eyes were closed, my eyes were stung by the powerful light, and my eyes went blank, and tears flowed out.
Suddenly, the vajra python roared and rampage through the tunnel, and the three of us finally worked together to block the tunnel entrance with stones.
I collapsed to the ground, my eyes began to ache violently, I opened my eyes and saw nothing, my heart was cold, I was blind!
I didn't avoid the strong light of the flare just now, but looked directly at it, which made me blind in an instant.
"Second brother..... I can't see it anymore! "I was a little panicked that being blind in this situation was like being sentenced to death.
The second brother grabbed my arm and said, "You didn't avoid the glare of the signal flare just now, so you must not be able to see it now..... But it's not a big problem, but you'd better close your eyes, or your retina will be burned out.... You're blind for a short time, just wait a while. β
The second brother's words reassured me a lot, and I was helped by Dawu and the second brother to sit by the wall, and they observed the cave we were in now.
After I lost my sight, I listened to their descriptions of the cave.
The cave is not very large, only the size of two basketball courts, and there are quite a few broken porcelain pieces here. There is a big pit not far from us, there are many human bones in the pit, the second brother and Dawu looked through the hand bones of these bones, they are all six finger bones.
The second brother guessed that this was probably a cave similar to a burial pit in the Six Fingers, which was specially used to store the dead.
After Dawu and the second brother turned the whole cave, they were silent for a long time, and when I saw that they suddenly stopped talking, I immediately began to panic.
"Second brother, Dawu, why haven't you two moved?"
Fortunately, the second brother answered me, but then said to me with a wry smile: "Qiuzi, now there is good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?" β
I was stunned and said, "Let's hear the bad news first." β
"The only exit from this cave is the tunnel just now, and Dawu and I haven't found any exit from here, this cave is sealed."
My heart sank, and I continued to ask my second brother to tell me the good news.
"The good news is that there will be no more bad news."
Dawu sighed and said, "Second Master, if we don't take a look again, it stands to reason that there can't be no exit here..... There is a snake nest on the other side of the tunnel, and outside the snake nest is a valley with giant pythons, and the people of the six-fingered clan can't leave a way for themselves to live, right? β
I smiled bitterly, it seems that Dawu has not yet figured out what kind of environment we are in now. Although I can't see it, I guess the expression of the second brother is desperate at this time, the second brother is so smart and a person, he must have realized a serious problem, and from the beginning we took a path into a dead end.
I said to Dawu: "Dawu, your idea is too naΓ―ve.... There will be no way out here, we have entered a road from the beginning that can only retreat but not enter, and once we enter, as long as the back road is blocked, it is impossible to come out again. β
"This place is not the place where the Six-Fingers live at all, they dug here from the beginning, probably to raise snakes, and the cave we are in now is not a burial pit. The human bones in that big pit may have been eaten by the snakes outside, and the meaning of the existence of this cave is the feeding place of those snakes....."
