It was night, and the clouds lit a large bonfire at the entrance of the cave before they dared to rest. Sure enough, the python returned, and apparently the hare did not satisfy its appetite but aroused its craving for food. The creature kept wandering outside the cave and rubbed the trees and grass rustling, but he was afraid of the flames and did not dare to step forward, and did not slowly leave until dawn, and the clouds were frightened to fill the firewood all night.

No matter how thick the cloud nerves were, he was about to be tormented by it, and watching its figure disappear into the bushes, he fiercely broke the branch in his hand and threw it into the fire. Unexpectedly, the branch was very tough, and it was broken in a large arc, but it was not broken, but it was straightened.

So he picked up the branch and remembered that when he was very young, an old hunter had told him about the winter wolf hunt. At that time, the mountains were often covered by heavy snow in winter, and the wolves on the mountains became irritable due to lack of food, and often came down the mountain to attack people and livestock, and they were always able to see through the traps.

And at this time, the wolf's fur is the thickest, and a whole skin can be sold for a very high price. So the old hunters came up with a way to get rid of the pest and get the whole fur, that is, to sharpen the ends of the bamboo strips and fold them into an arc, then insert them into the meat and freeze them outside, and when they are frozen, they will be thrown into the nearby fields.

Wolves have a habit of never chewing but swallowing them when they eat. So when I foraged for food nearby, I swallowed the meat in one bite after I found it. When the meat melts in the wolf's belly, the bamboo skewer straightens, and naturally penetrates the wolf's stomach and intestines, causing its internal organs to bleed to death. Hunters only have to follow the trail to find a whole corpse.

The eating habits of this python in front of me are similar to those of wolves, so maybe you can try it. So Yun hastily ate breakfast, tasted some liquid food in Yokota, and went up the mountain.

There are no bamboos on the island, but there are many trees with tough materials, he cut a lot of branches and cut them into wood chips, and felt that the strength seemed to be good, and he didn't worry about cutting more than a dozen before stopping.

After lunch, he was lucky enough to catch a little boar, so he folded up the prepared pieces of wood and inserted them into its carcass......

Just after the boar was arranged, the python came again. Yun scolded secretly in his heart, saying that snakes are lazy by nature, but why is this so diligent!

Sure enough, as soon as the python arrived, it was attracted by the carcass of the boar, but with yesterday's accident, it was a lot more cautious, and circled around the food several times before tentatively swimming slowly, and then swallowed it like lightning. It seemed that it was satisfied with the quality and weight of the food this time, and did not continue to harass the clouds, but turned away from it.

Yun smiled wryly: "It seems that this guy treats me as a long-term meal ticket!, but this may be his last lunch." ”

At night, there was a loud noise at the top of the mountain, and rocks kept rolling down. The seabirds that had come back to rest were also so frightened that they flew back and hovered for a long time. It took most of the night to calm down.

The next day, as soon as the sky was dark, the clouds went up the mountain. It didn't take much effort to find the body of the python, only to see that there were broken trees everywhere around it, the turf had been overturned, and a mountain rock the size of a millstone had been knocked out of the way. The big python lay on the ground softly, and its tongue spit out, and the dark red blood on the side of its mouth had coagulated. The huge body covered in scale armor as if King Kong was indestructible was covered with scars at this time, covered in dirt and grass clippings. Apparently he had struggled violently before he died, and it was very painful.

The clouds did not dare to get too close, but cautiously threw a few stones at it, and saw that it was motionless and seemed to be dead before coming forward. After re-examining it and confirming that it was indeed dead, he laboriously dragged its corpse, which weighed four or five hundred pounds, back to the cave.

Along the way, the clouds were not happy and excited, but a little melancholy. Although he was born as a hunter, he has never killed animals indiscriminately except for survival and self-protection, but has treated many injured small animals since he was a child. He insisted that both humans and animals had the right to live.

Especially this python, I don't know how many years I have lived here, and I even have some enlightenment. His arrival disturbed its life, and perhaps the cave was its former shelter but he had taken possession of it.

If it weren't for the python threatening his life, he didn't want to put it to death, but things were often unsatisfactory, just like he and the old guy lived a simple life in Daqingshan, although sometimes it was very bitter but it was fulfilling, but the disaster suddenly befell him inexplicably, not only breaking his peaceful life, but also taking away the old man he had relied on since childhood.

Shaking his head let the sea breeze take away the troubles in his heart, and the clouds fixed his eyes on the python corpse again, since he was dead, he couldn't waste it. The flesh of this python must be a good thing, not only the flesh is delicate but also very replenished. This python skin is simply invulnerable, and Yun decides to bring it back to make a set of armor for each of his brothers. As for the legendary animals that want to become essences, they all have Neidan, and after eating, the skills of those who practice martial arts will rise like monkeys, and Yun thinks it is pure nonsense. But snake gall bladder is still extremely valuable as the essence of its body.

So he laboriously cut a circular crack from the python's jaw, and with a force, the whole python skin was peeled off, revealing the white snake flesh. When the clouds peeled open its stomach, it found that all the internal organs were rotten, and when the wooden strip punctured its stomach and intestines, it kept rolling in pain, and the result was even more serious, but fortunately, the snake's gall was intact and the size of a fist. Yun carefully pierced the snake gall bladder and poured bile into Yokota, then cut the snake meat into pieces and put it on a large stone to dry.

The sun at noon is very scorching, and after a while, the snake meat will make a sneering sound and roll up, and after the surface is dried, the cloud rubs a straw rope and threads it into a string and hangs it in a ventilated place, if it does not rain, it is no problem to keep it for three or four days. As for the bones and internal organs, they were thrown into the sea so as not to attract other predators......

Having survived the current crisis made him breathe a sigh of relief, although the future is uncertain, as long as he lives, there is hope. I don't know if it's really snake gall that works, but Yokota miraculously wakes up at night, and although he is still weak, he seems to have some energy.

He drank the snake soup that the clouds had prepared for him while listening to the clouds tell him about what had happened these days. Although the clouds only understated the process of saving him, he knew how difficult it was for the clouds to bring him over in this environment.

When he heard that all the Japanese people on the ship had died in order to cover him, Yokota's expression was a little gloomy, and he said hoarsely after a while: "You have a saying that great grace is not grateful, and I have remembered your kindness to me. If Yunjun can use me Yokota one day, I will not hesitate to go to the soup and fight the fire! The responsibility for this accident lies with me, and I was too careless. And there must be someone in the family who was bribed by Kojiro, otherwise he wouldn't have grasped my whereabouts so accurately. The money and goods are lost, Yunjun doesn't have to worry about it. If we can go back, I will give Dajiangmeng an explanation. ”

"I have the impression that the island we are on now should be at the junction of our two countries. It's a great deal to get on either side, and with my many years of experience at sea, the weather is changeable this season and it's easy to get caught in hurricanes. So the idea that you just said that you want to make a raft to cross the ocean is not realistic, and the safest way is to stay on the island and wait for rescue, and be careful not to be discovered by Kojiro's people. ”

"What if there is no rescue?" Yun asked.

"So we're going to set a time limit. Yokota continued, "If people in the family don't find my trace for a long time, they may think I'm dead and give up searching." And you came out in secret, and it is unlikely that the Great River Alliance will send a large number of people to find you. We waited on the island until winter, when the sea was relatively calm and the monsoon winds blowing north could quickly bring us back to land. During this time we can prepare food and water and build a sturdy raft. And after a while of cultivation, my body will improve, at least it won't drag you down anymore. So the chances of getting out of it are quite good!"

"Wouldn't that mean you have to spend most of the year on this desert island!" Yun Yun was a little depressed.

"Hehe!" Yokota smiled, "What is this little time compared to his life!"
