Chapter 41 Chapter 41: Snake King

This turned out to be a "pheasant neck". How could there be such a snake here! I took a closer look and found that the fiery red comb and snake body, as well as the upright terrifying posture, are the "pheasant neck". My cold sweat burst out in no time.This kind of snake is very rare. In our hometown, it is called "Lei Wanghong (transliteration)". I saw it once in the mountains when I was a child.According to the old man, this snake is the king of snakes, and all snakes are afraid of it. It flies close to the ground, moves like lightning, and is extremely poisonous. Wherever it crawls, plants and weeds will even separate by themselves.Moreover, this kind of snake cannot be beaten, and if killed, the same kind will retaliate.

Later, I read a novel written by Qing people, which said that this kind of snake is a small dragon, which lives along the dragon veins of mountains and rivers, and it is also said that it is a snake spirit entrenched on the dragon veins. There is such a thing that lightning strikes on the mountain and blasts out this kind of snake.However, this kind of snake has almost disappeared in recent decades, and it is beyond my expectation that it still exists here. Fatty and the others had never seen this kind of snake before, and they were all amazed. Among them, only Poker Bottle had a change in expression like mine.However, the fiery red snake body and fierce posture showed the identity of this venomous snake, and none of them dared to act rashly.

This is really just escaped from the mouth of the python, and encountered a poisonous snake again, I was annoyed, and reminded myself, it seems that in this place, I really need to be more careful, and I can't get in everywhere. There is still a ray of life in a fight with a python. In a fight with a poisonous snake, you usually either win or lose. No one is willing to take this risk, and the "pheasant neck" generally does not provoke people. Now it is making such a threatening gesture. It is a warning that maybe this gap is its lair. Then I absolutely can't stay here anymore, so I waved my hand to tell them not to make an attacking gesture, and go out slowly.Aning pulled out the cold smoke and handed it to me, letting me use it as a weapon.

I put the cold smoke and fire horizontally in front of me, so that I won't have to block it with my hands when "Pheasant Neck" suddenly attacks.We exited the gap carefully, one by one, all without a hitch.When it was my turn, I finally breathed a sigh of relief. I turned my head and glanced inside the gap. It was so dark that the snake could no longer be seen, and I said to myself that luckily nothing happened. After getting down from the gap and stepping into the water, the fat man poked out of the waterfall with a miner's lamp, took a few laps of light, and said, "The big snake is gone, it's safe..."

Several people breathed a sigh of relief. We went to see Pan Zi who was being supported by the fat man. He waved his hand weakly and said that it was all right, but he suffered internal injuries from the fall, but he still couldn't die.We looked at each other, and we all smiled wryly, a few of them were disheveled and covered in mud, Aning's chest was almost exposed, she pulled her clothes to cover it as if nothing had happened, and we didn't have the energy to look at it.There are only two equipment bags left, Poker Fing's ancient black gold knife is lost, the fat man has my dagger in his hand, and his own dagger is gone.The shoulders of Poker Ping and Pan Zi were covered with dense blood holes, which were bitten by the teeth of the python, especially Pok You Ping. He probably broke free, and many of the wounds were open.

I really didn't expect that a boa constrictor could make us so embarrassed. I looked at the sky, the rain had stopped, the sky was already lit up, the trees on the edge of the canyon were a little sparser, and I could see the kind of morning light that was about to dawn, with waterfalls on one side, jungle on the other, and birds singing around, if not What a wonderful situation it would be to have personally experienced the fierce battle just now. Everyone watched the scenery quietly for a while, and the fat man asked, "What should we do now?" Aning walked to the edge of the waterfall, caught some rainwater that washed down, washed his face, and said: "When it is dawn, let's go back and pick up the equipment, and then find a place to rest. It's too dangerous here, we still have to Get out quickly."

The fat man said: "Damn, it's easy for you to say, when we ran just now, we ran around completely, and we don't know where the tree is, how do we find it?" "Then I have to look for it. If I don't go back now, it will be even more impossible to look for it when I need it." Ah Ning pressed his face wearily, rolled up his sleeves, put his head into the waterfall and rinsed it hastily. , After washing, the short hair was tossed, the mud and sand receded, and the pretty face finally returned to its previous appearance.Just call us to go. When I thought about going back to that place, I let out a long sigh in my heart, but what this woman said was right, I really had to do this at this time, just not to make people breathe.The feeling hasn't slowed down yet.

A few people carried their own things on their backs. A Ning is a woman and she likes to be clean. Seeing that we had gone far, she pulled off her clothes and flushed her chest with water. At this time, the corner of my eye flashed, We saw a mass of red flashing inside the waterfall, and at the same time we vaguely heard a "clack". I suddenly felt something was wrong, and said to Aning: "Be careful, stay away from the waterfall!" "What's the matter?" Ah Ning turned her head and looked at me. For some reason, she showed a very faint smile, which was different from her previous smile. I was amazed when I saw it.

At that moment, all of a sudden, a fiery red snake came out of the waterfall, coiled around Ah Ning's neck, raised its head high, and let out a series of mournful and high-pitched "" cluck" sound.As soon as I read it!Throwing away the things in his hand, he rushed over, took the first step, and watched the "pheasant neck" bite down like lightning.Ah Ning tried to block it with her hand but failed, and the snake bit her neck immediately.She screamed, pulled the snake off, threw it aside, covered her neck and fell into the water. We rushed over, but the snake didn't even escape, and jumped up from the water again, flying towards us like an arrow.The fat man yelled, he tried to hit it with a knife but missed it, he was about to be hit again, he squeezed the Poker Bottle on one side, and pinched the snake's head in one go.The snake's body coiled around his arm, and he wanted to pull out the snake's head, but he saw that Poker Bottle stuck the snake's neck with his other hand, twisted the two hands in opposite directions, and with a click, the snake's head was twisted for him. After a temperature of 360 degrees, it was thrown into the water. The "pheasant neck" twisted a few times, then stopped moving, and floated up.

We hurriedly went to see Aning, I went up to pick her up, but saw that the expression on her face had froze, her throat was moving and she wanted to speak, and her eyes were filled with tears, as if she was unwilling to do so.My scalp went numb immediately, I didn't know what to do, and my whole body was shaking.Then, in just a few seconds, her eyes were lost, her whole body softened, and then her head drooped.
