In the next few days, when there are no training courses, Feng Yi will make an appointment at the crocodile training ground. He has never directly touched a crocodile before, and has only seen it in zoos or certain exhibition halls.
Furthermore, different species of crocodiles have different habits. Feng Yi needed to know a lot of things, but he lacked knowledge in this area.
However, as Chen Wei said, the python hunting event is held from January to February, which is still the dry season in Florida. Crocodiles and snakes are not very active, and some venomous snakes will even go to other places to hibernate in the winter.
Generally speaking, during the python hunting period, the overall environment is a relatively safe period for humans, which allows actual combatants to have some weaknesses. If it is the rainy season, the risk level will be much higher.
On this day, there were no classes scheduled for the group. The training ground in the morning had already been booked, and Feng Yi made an appointment for the afternoon session at No. 5 in the crocodile area.
Feng Yi went to the cafeteria early in the morning to have breakfast, and bought something for two people to take home. He planned to eat something when he was hungry while reading the course notes.
There are many people like him, but others are helping roommates and bringing breakfast for other people in the team, while Feng Yi eats it by himself. He doesn’t tell others and doesn’t know the inside story. Anyway, this behavior is not eye-catching among a group of people.
When I entered the dormitory, I happened to see the door of the next room open.
“Brother Zhai.” Feng Yi thought about it and handed over the breakfast bag he was carrying, “Want something to eat?”
Zhai Yiyou rubbed the dark circles under his eyes. Hearing Feng Yi's words, a smile appeared on his tired face, "Thanks, I'm hungry."
Seeing that there was a lot in the bag that Feng Yi was carrying, Zhai Yiyou thought that Feng Yi had not eaten in the cafeteria, so he didn't take any more. He took two buns and put them on the bed first. He would go to the cafeteria to finish breakfast later.
Holding the bun, Zhai Yiyou turned around and took out a bottle of juice from the room and handed it to Feng Yi, "The mixed fruit and vegetable juice made by my classmate's farm is simple in packaging, but it tastes good."
Feng Yi did not refuse, took the juice, placed the breakfast bag on the dining table in the dormitory’s common area, and started Breakfast 2.0.
Not to mention, the juice tastes really good.
“Brother Zhai, do you sell the juice from your classmate’s house online? It tastes very good, I want to buy some.” Feng Yi said.
“I have this plan, but it is still in the preparation period. I will let you know when it is put on the market.”
Having been in the same dormitory for so long, we are usually busy and don’t have much time to see each other, but even if we are not familiar with each other, we will not be too unfamiliar.
“Are Teacher Huang and Chen Wei in the dormitory?” Zhai Yiyou asked. He got up late today and didn’t know if the other two people were in the room.
"We went out. When I went to the cafeteria, they had already finished eating. Teacher Huang went to the laboratory and Brother Chen went to the training ground." Feng Yi said.
Zhai Yiyou heard that they were the only ones in the dormitory now, so he asked Feng Yi, "Are you busy later?"
“Well, I don’t have any plans in the morning. I plan to read the course notes. Brother Zhai, do you need any help?”
"There is something that won't take you too much time." Zhai Yiyou said, "My junior brothers and sisters have set up an electronic journal and asked me to write. I stayed up late last night and wrote an article, and I revised it when I woke up in the morning.
But if you think it’s okay, you can help me take a look. In terms of content, you should also understand what was taught in the recent training courses.”
Zhai Yiyou stayed up late last night to finish writing the manuscript. He found that the number of words was still a little short of what he said when he was asked to write the manuscript, so he added some more content. The article is not profound and is not intended for professionals, so it is written in a relatively simple and easy-to-understand way.
It's also quite interesting.
Feng Yi took the tablet from Zhai Yiyou, with an open document on it.
The title of the article is "The Battle of the Great Swamp".
At the beginning, I gave a brief introduction to Virginia, including topography, climate conditions, species divisions, etc.
He also talked about the changes before and after the abnormal climate period in Florida.
In human society, periods of climate anomalies have resulted in some losers and some winners.
The same is true in the animal kingdom. Some are weak, and new strong ones are born. The losers in the struggle are squeezed out and devoured.
However, the birth of the new powerful animals in the Florida Everglades has certain human factors, and will cause other animals to disappear and threaten humans.
The storm destroyed some research centers and zoos in Virginia, causing some species to invade the Everglades. In addition, reptile breeders also secretly released reptiles into the Everglades area.
Alien species have begun to show off their power in the Everglades. The bosses of the genus Anaconda have launched an invasion war into the swamp.
Period of abnormal climate is an important turning point.
Zhai Yiyou said this in his article:
"The giants of the genus Python, represented by Burmese pythons, reticulated pythons, and African rock pythons, had a world-shaking and beautiful love affair in this resource-rich Everglades, and gave birth to strong super hybrid offspring.
…”
The Python bosses who launched the invasion war were greatly involved after their expansion. Although they were greatly weakened during the period of climate anomalies, the birth of super hybrid offspring allowed this magical invasion group to rise again and plunder the Everglades with a strong posture.
In this battle, the heavyweight warriors of the genus Anaconda in the subfamily Anaconda did not really participate in the battle, but made up for the soy sauce. After all, there is reproductive isolation between the green anaconda (anaconda) and the genus Anaconda.
Super hybrid pythons invade the Everglades in succession. They can eat, fight, and have a bad temper.
The rule of the python is: the areas it rules will turn from prosperity to silence.
The swamps have been eaten by them, and the crocodiles have almost no deer to eat. In Steve’s words, “The crocodiles in the wild in the swamp are so thin that it makes people feel distressed!”
No matter how many animals are introduced, they will all be eaten by pythons. How can we make the Everglades develop healthily?
Let’s reduce the number of pythons first!
So, in the article, Zhai Yiyou pointed out the nature of this python hunting activity as a battle of defense!
Zhai Yiyou: "I have to let others know why we are doing this this time. This is a defensive activity. If you don't explain this kind of thing clearly, you will be sprayed to death!"
After Feng Yi finished reading, Zhai Yiyou asked him again: "What do you think?"
“It’s very well written.” Feng Yi said.
“So, do you have any questions after reading it? Or, what part of this article do you want to know most?”
“What I want to know most?” Feng Yi glanced at a paragraph in the article that talked about the weather, and said, “Is the sunshine in Florida very good during the python hunting activity?”
Zhai Yiyou's expression went blank for a moment, and then he gave Feng Yi a strange look.
Zhai Yiyou's heart
【Why the cute raccoon no longer visits the house, you don’t want to know!】
【You don’t want to know why the child who sneaked into the swamp to swim without listening to the advice disappeared! 】
【The love and hatred between python bosses, you still don’t want to know how brutal the battle between Florida’s two dominant crocodiles and pythons is!】
【You only care about whether the sunshine in Florida is good or not!】
【You didn’t mention even half of the key points I wanted to express, but you used them to show the number of words, but you caught them every time!!】
This is the first time Zhai Yiyou met someone with such a strange angle.
After a moment of silence, Zhai Yiyou told Feng Yi about the weather during the python hunting event. These were all data provided by the local meteorological bureau, but they were not mentioned in the training courses.
After Zhai Yiyou went out, Feng Yi went back to his room to study the weather information given by Zhai Yiyou. He thought this was very helpful in catching the python, but it was just his idea that others could not understand.
In the afternoon, Feng Yi went to the training ground.
When Feng Yi entered the area, he smelled a familiar smell. It was someone he knew. This made Feng Yi pause for a moment.
“Brother Yi!”
Feng Yi followed the sound and looked over.
A young man was walking out of the No. 2 training ground. He called Feng Yi and trotted over.
Feng Yi recognized this person.
Cheng Si, an outdoor anchor, worked with him for a while on the Nan Chong scientific expedition team.
Cheng Si has always been very active on the Internet, and Feng Yi has seen push news about him several times online.
However, what impressed Feng Yi the most about Cheng Si was the time when the Nanchong scientific expedition team was bitten by a Zhoushan cobra and was taken away by a rescue helicopter.
You can't poke his pain points in person, and he's not an enemy. Feng Yi didn't mention the Nan Chong Cobra incident.
"haven't seen you for a long time."
“Yeah, it’s been a long time. I just arrived this morning, and I was wondering if I would have to wait until class to see you.” Cheng Si said with a smile.
“Are you also part of the python hunting group this time?” Feng Yi asked.
“No, we belong to the media group. I can’t join the actual team for an event of this nature.”
I have to say that after not seeing each other for a few months, Cheng Si has become much more stable compared to the time when he was taking the Nan Chong Science Examination. I don’t know if it’s because of his own changes, or because he didn’t show that kind of behavior in front of Feng Yi.
Publicity.
Furthermore, the title has also changed.
During the scientific examination in Nan Chong, Cheng Si saw Feng Yi directly calling Feng Yi by his name, but just now he called "Brother Yi".
Cheng Si looked at the number of the training ground behind Feng Yi and said, "Are you here to train too? In field 5, you are indeed an expert! I will also hang out in field 1 and 2."
Although the crocodile in No. 2 has a strange habit of rolling, its size alone is still very intimidating. At least Cheng Si can use it to take photos and show off to people who don’t know the truth online.
Cheng Si looked at the display screen outside Court 5, "There are still about ten minutes until the next game in Court 5. Let's go sit next to it and chat for a while?"
“Okay.” Feng Yi guessed that Cheng Si must have something to ask him for.
Sure enough, within a few words after sitting down, Cheng Si made his intention clear.
This python hunting event is allowed to be broadcast live, and the video platform giants will certainly not miss this opportunity.
The benefits that can be reaped are quite attractive, and the platform Cheng Si signed up with also gave him an opportunity to join the media team here.
Cheng Si was ambitious, so he kept an eye on Feng Yi.
“Live broadcast with the team?” Feng Yi frowned.
“Are you worried? I heard from other teachers in the team that the python hunting team was divided into groups this time. Brother Yi, who are you grouping with? The team members are not willing to live broadcast?”
“I’m with Steve.”
Cheng Si’s eyes lit up when he heard this. He came here to find Steve, but he didn’t see anyone and thought Steve was not in the team this time!
“That’s great, we’re all acquaintances!” Cheng Si had collaborated with Steve on live broadcasts, and he didn’t think Steve would refuse.
Feng Yi knew that Cheng Si would not give up easily, so he said, "Then you can send a message to Steve and see what he decides."
Cheng Si thought about it and was right. If Feng Yi and Steve were paired together, Steve would definitely be the dominant one and Feng Yi could not decide anything.
In front of Cheng Si, Feng Yi also sent a message to Steve, "He is over there in Virginia. It's already midnight and he's probably asleep. I'll wait until he replies..."
Before he finished speaking, Steve came over with a voice.
Feng Yi answered, "Are you going to catch crocodiles again at night?" Teve's voice sounded less excited than last time, "Yeah, but this time it's not about catching crocodiles. The research center found a signal abnormality, so I followed them out.
, rushed to the place, the crocodile had already entered the python's belly. I caught a hybrid python, and now on the way back, I will send you photos when I go back. What did you say in the message just now? Someone asked you to talk about live broadcast? "
“Yes, you know the person too, Cheng Si.” Feng Yi said. When Teve heard this at first glance, he thought about who Cheng Si was. His mind was now full of pythons and crocodiles.
After thinking about it for a moment, I finally remembered, "Oh, that kid...impossible! Let him not even think about it!!"
After a while he said again: “Turn on the speaker of your phone and I’ll talk to him.”
Feng Yi put the phone in front of Cheng Si and motioned for Cheng Si to speak directly to Steve.
“Hey Steve, I’m next to you.” Cheng Si said.
“Oh, um, Xiao Cheng, you should know the nature of this activity. An activity of this nature only depends on the results. The process will be more direct and the pace will be faster. You can’t keep up!”
“Hey, you are looking down on me! Steve, I have learned a lot of skills now and have more experience than before. I will definitely be able to keep up!” Being familiar with Steve, Cheng Si spoke more casually.
But Steve is not in a good mood right now.
“My goal this time with Feng Yi is to go into the depths of the swamp with a large python that is over four meters tall. Are you sure you can follow it? Your combat power is only... 0.1 python?”
Cheng Si said excitedly, "It's impossible! It's still 0.3 no matter what!"
"Sorry, we won't consider it below 0.5 python. One is because we can't keep up with the progress, and the other is for safety reasons."
Steve is not as talkative as usual on matters like this.
In addition, the Nan Chong scientific expedition team directly reduced Cheng Si’s fighting power in Steve’s heart.
You can’t even handle a Zhoushan cobra, so you still want to go deep into the swamp where pythons are infested? Isn’t this a hindrance?
It’s strange that you agree!
Actually, when Cheng Si heard Steve talking about going to the depths of the swamp to catch a giant python, he already had the intention of retreating.
Nan Chong Ke Kao has already been slapped in the face once, and this time he can't slap the other cheek too. He still knows how capable he is, and he has a long memory after suffering a big loss.
Furthermore, he also knows what the situation is like in Virginia. If someone enters without overestimating his or her capabilities, he or she will most likely come out sideways, or he may not even be able to find anyone.
You can still call for help if bitten by a poisonous snake, but deep in the swamp, those beasts won’t even give you a chance to call for help.
Between profit and life, Cheng Si chose his own life after being entangled.
"Then... okay, I will continue to practice my skills and try to follow you next time. However, as far as I know, for veterans like you Steve and rookies like Brother Yi, the Federal Insurance Bureau will not let you act quietly.
Yes, you will definitely have to send someone to follow the filming, it may not be a live broadcast, it may be a recording."
Cheng Si gave them a heads up and left wisely.
When Cheng Si walked away, Feng Yi switched the speaker mode to the receiver.
Steve continued on the other end of the phone: "It will definitely not be Cheng Si who is sent to follow the filming. That kid's abilities are limited. When the higher-ups ask you about the filming, no matter how they arrange it, whether it is live broadcast or recording, you agree first.
When the python hunting starts, I have a way to deal with it."
Feng Yi didn’t know what Steve’s method was, but since it was said so, he just did it.
