Cai Bin's whole body almost burst with shock, and his heart seemed to be in his throat.
When he regained consciousness, he was about to find tools to help, but soon he found that the two people following Feng Yi were not moving at all. Even Feng Suo was still standing there, with no intention of stepping forward to help.
Cai Bin was puzzled: "Aren't you worried?"
Feng Shou said: "I'm actually worried too, but I believe in Brother Yi's professional ability more."
As he spoke, he glanced at Xiao Jia and Xiao Ding again, and signaled to Cai Bin: Didn't you see that these two followers didn't move?
"……All right."
Cai Bin reacted and wiped his face.
It was him who overreacted.
Because we often see snakes in our living environment, and we often hear about people who have been bitten by snakes, even those who are particularly good at catching snakes cannot guarantee that they will be safe every time. Don’t look at how exciting it is in some documentaries.
When taking risks, people lead a team. Even if they cannot bring anti-venom, they still bring corresponding drugs. If danger occurs, they can be sent to treatment as soon as possible.
If you don’t have a team or medical conditions, and you are bitten by a venomous snake, you can basically only record your last words in a place like this.
There are not many people like Feng Yi, but they have quite a lot of luggage and have prepared a lot of supplies. Maybe there are some "secret weapons"?
Hey, I almost forgot!
Cai Bin remembered.
Feng Yi is a shareholder of the Ancestral Factory. Didn’t the Ancestral Factory start out by studying snake venom? I once heard that the Ancestral Factory has developed a universal anti-venom drug. The shareholders will not be short of anything!
Feng Yi should take it with him.
Thinking of this, Cai Bin's anxious heart calmed down again.
He looked at Feng Yi again.
At this time, Feng Yi was staring at the venomous snake in his hand, his eyes seemed to be deep but also seemed to have a touch of amusement.
This scene made Cai Bin feel an indescribable atmosphere of fireworks.
There seemed to be a magnetic baritone narrating in my mind: High-end ingredients often only require the simplest cooking methods to retain the original taste of the food, so delicious...
Cai Bin was excited and shook his head.
I must be possessed!
Why did you suddenly think of these!
But I don’t know if it was because of a brain twitch, but Cai Bin said uncontrollably: "Brother Yi, you can’t eat this snake!"
After saying this, Cai Bin wanted to slap himself.
I want you to talk more!
He is an expert certified by the Joint Protection Bureau, and he is principled! He will not eat wild animals except in emergencies!
Sure enough, he heard Feng Yi reply: "I know."
Cai Bin smiled coquettishly: "Sorry, it's a professional habit, so I mentioned it too much."
Seeing that Feng Yi was not angry, Cai Bin felt relieved again and looked around.
There were villagers not far away who had been looking here. Seeing Feng Yi letting the snake crawl on his hands, they let out a series of exclamations and looked at Feng Yi with a hint of kindness.
Cai Bin felt relieved.
As expected, they were a tribe that believed in the snake god. Feng Yi's behavior made their attitude obviously better, and they no longer had the strong sense of rejection before.
After he relaxed, Cai Bin said jokingly: "Brother Yi, if you kiss this snake, these villagers will definitely treat you better!"
Feng Yi refused: "No, no, no."
With snakes wrapped around his hands, Feng Yi said to them: "There are no other dangerous creatures in the house, except for some mosquitoes. It just needs to be cleaned up a little."
Cai Bin took a look inside the house and went to negotiate with the villagers.
Although Feng Yi solved the danger inside, Cai Bin still had to raise the issue of poisonous snakes inside:
"Why don't you smoke this house?! Why are there venomous snakes!"
When Cai Bin came here last time, these people would smoke the house in advance, which is a local way of driving away snakes, insects, rats, ants and so on.
This time nothing was done!
Faced with Cai Bin's questioning, the villagers did not feel that they were wrong.
Yes, but thinking about the benefits these visitors will bring, my attitude is okay.
"We used to smoke it, but that was something we would do proactively only if someone notified us in advance!"
If no outsiders come over, they don't have to clean this kind of house at all, and they usually keep the door closed.
Due to the inconvenience of communication, Feng Yi and his entourage arrived unexpectedly, and the villagers only did an emergency cleaning.
Rough cleaning, no other detailed cleaning.
If no one notifies you in advance, they will ignore it and smoke it themselves if you live here, or they may bring something out as a reward and invite local residents to smoke it.
Just like before, a film crew came over and asked a resident to use supplies to fumigate the house and do insect repellent treatment.
Cai Bin added: "I remember you were not like this before, you were so active before!"
The villager who was questioned explained: "Once we met a team of film makers. After we smoked them, they were not satisfied, and then they smoked it themselves several times. After that, we always let outsiders smoke it themselves."
You can also save a lot of herbs!
Moreover, the village chief also said that the people who come here must have made sufficient preparations, and there are too few reckless people.
So, when the villagers saw this situation, they agreed with the village chief's decision. There was no need to waste things.
The villagers asked expectantly: "Do you need to smoke the house? I was waiting nearby just now to ask, and the man went in."
Cai Bin did not decide on his own, but went to talk to Feng Yi about the situation.
Pay the residents here to clean up?
A few of them can do this, but looking at the villagers waiting nearby, you will know that the villagers will be happier if they let these villagers do the work. Of course, the premise is that you can provide them with a satisfactory reward.
Cai Bin told Feng Yi before coming here, so Feng Yi was already prepared.
"Then ask them to help."
The villagers were very cautious in using fire. They used certain types of sun-dried plants to smoke the house, and some kind of potion may have been sprinkled on them. The smell was quite complex, which was a bit irritating to Feng Yi's keen sense of smell, and it was not toxic.
I just didn't like the smell, so I stayed away from it. After fumigating the house, I opened the door and blew out the smell, and then Feng Yi came over.
After the villagers left, Xiao Jia and Xiao Ding went into the house to clean up.
The villagers have cleaned it up, but some decorations still need to be made by themselves.
"Let's not rush things. We have to tidy up this house. We still need to stay here for a few days." Cai Bin said.
Even if Feng Yi can't live there, others will. Cai Bin, the guide and translator, will not go into the depths of the rainforest with Feng Yi. At most, he will just wander around the edge and be within a distance of returning to the village to rest at night.
He knew very well how dangerous it was in the tropical rainforest, so he always maintained a sense of awe and did not have the courage to challenge it.
"Hang up the mosquito net first, it's a must-have, otherwise you won't be able to sleep well." The environment here is not friendly to outsiders. The locals have adapted to it, but if outsiders don't make more preparations, it's simply a torment.
.
"The bed board is a bit hard. If you find it too hard, you can use an air mattress to lay a layer on it, or just use a sleeping bag."
Cai Bin saw that they were tidying up in an orderly manner, so Feng Shuo didn't say anything. Feng Yi had two people helping him, so Cai Bin didn't need to worry too much.
"Everyone is tired from the journey here. Let's sit down and rest while I prepare the food." Of course, the food was obtained from local villagers and paid for.
After a while, villagers came over with food trays. The food was served in dishes, coconut shells and the like. It was simple and plain. If you are not used to the food here, you may not be able to eat it. But if it suits your taste, you will feel it.
It's another kind of delicacy. Anyway, Feng Yi can eat it.
There is no other problem except that the portion is too small.
"Is this pork?" Feng Yi asked, holding a large piece of meat on his fork.
When he first got off the plane, he smelled the smell of pigs.
"Farmed?"
Cai Bin replied: "Well, because they are not allowed to hunt randomly in the forest now. The control is strict, and people come here every once in a while to make surprise inspections."
Cha, although there are subsidies, they are quite ambitious. After the abnormal climate period ended, in order to deal with the problems of these indigenous people, someone gave them some advice and asked them to try raising pigs.
"It seems to be a specially selected breed that is very suitable for breeding here. The pigs will not grow particularly big, but they are also very good in shape. The meat quality of the pigs raised here is very good, even better than those raised elsewhere.
Some, so the selling price is very high. Of course I am willing to develop breeding after seeing the profits.”
Cai Bin pointed in the direction of the runway: "You can see from the runway over there that planes come here from time to time to transport goods. The conditions here look very poor, but in fact the villagers are not poor. It's just that they are not willing to go out.
, I’m used to this kind of life and don’t want to change too much.”
The head of this village seemed to be quite busy. He only showed up here after they finished their meal.
There are some things they need to talk to the village chief directly.
It's just that it's getting late, and the village chief doesn't plan to stay here for too long.
Feng Yi said to Feng Shou, "You ask."
Feng Sui was not shy: "Okay, I'll do it first."
Feng Yi asked again: "Can we stand by and watch when you ask?"
Feng Shuo: "Of course, there is no secret."
Feng Yi is observing the emotional information of these local people, while Xiao Ding is mainly adapting to the language system here. After all, it is a small village far away from the city, with little communication with the outside world, and it has a more or less local accent.
Feng Yi was not familiar with Cai Bin, the guide and translator, and would not give him absolute trust, so Xiao Ding needed to adapt as soon as possible and understand as much as he could.
Feng Shuo: "Abin, please help me ask about the fruit trees."
While talking, Feng Shou took out a small box, which contained seeds in a transparent bag and a piece of dry peel. It had obviously been specially processed to make it easier to carry and identify.
In addition, there are a few photos.
"This is a photo of the fruit, and this is a photo of my friend. He came here some time ago. Please ask the village chief to identify him."
When Cai Bin's translator was particularly devoted, his emotions were replicated.
In the twittering of each sentence, Cai Bin's voice was full of emotion and extremely restored.
Feng Yi thought to himself: Brother translator, your secondary job is a voice actor, right?
There aren't many outsiders here, and Feng Shuo's friend hasn't been away for a long time, so the village chief still has some impressions.
It's just that they can't agree on the issue of finding fruit trees.
Village chief: "We can send someone to help you collect some more fruits."
Feng Shou: "What I need are the seeds or branches of this tree. It would be better if I could transplant a few trees."
The village chief disagreed.
There was another back and forth tug, Cai Bin finished acting here and then acted there.
Feng Yi was watching from the side, something like this -
Feng Shu: I want to find fruit trees.
Village Chief: You can’t go.
Feng Shuo: Then dig it up for me. I want the whole tree!
Village Chief: I refuse!
Feng Shuo: Add money!
Village Chief: This is not a matter of how much money to add. We will not allow you to dig up the entire fruit tree and take it away from here. This is about our beliefs!
Pull again.
Feng Shou couldn't do it anymore: More money! I won't dig up the whole tree, but if you take me there, I'll just take a look, cut off a branch, and then get out!
The village chief said nothing: [Embarrassed]
Cai Bin was also there to persuade me.
But the village chief still didn't let go.
After a while, the village chief said: "We need to think about it."
Okay, we can only talk about it tomorrow.
After the village chief left, Cai Bin looked around outside and closed the door.
"There are some areas that they don't allow. Even in this village, except for a certain small group of people, no one else can go, because it will blaspheme their gods!"
Cai Bin explained.
"It means there's '
God?" Feng asked.
"God or not, it's hard to say this kind of thing. I don't believe it anyway. Based on my experience, it may be that the area was too dangerous and other people would lose their lives in the past. In fact, it's not just here, there are many people living in
The same is true for people in the mountains. The experiences passed down from generation to generation, which places cannot be visited, such as those extremely dangerous areas, will be given a sense of mystery. The stories passed down from generation to generation, with some embellishments and drama, become such forbidden areas.
"
Feng Yi could also understand what Cai Bin said. He had encountered similar things before when he went on missions with the scientific expedition team.
Cai Bin advised: "Since it is such a dangerous place, let's not go there. Spend some money or supplies and invite the indigenous people to go. They are familiar with the terrain and it will be more efficient."
Feng Shou agreed with Cai Bin. He cherished his life even more. If it was really in a dangerous area, asking locals to collect fruits and cut branches would be the safest way. After thinking about it, Feng Shou said: "I don't know what they said.
What exactly is that restricted area that you can’t go to?”
There is no Internet and no other entertainment activities. As the sun sets, the hustle and bustle in the village will quiet down. Other animals living here will highlight their presence, and the noise caused by calls or other behaviors will be heard in this area.
The rainforest area will give people an inexplicable psychological pressure.
Cai Bin thought of the news he had seen before and said, "Have you seen that report before? Some years ago, someone photographed a giant snake in this tropical rainforest! Rumor has it that it is over a hundred feet tall!"
Converted from one hundred feet to thirty meters?
What the hell!
Feng Yi asked: "Is there a picture or the truth?"
Cai Bin smiled and said, "Yes, but the picture is very blurry. You can see a snake swimming in the water, but there is no reference object, and the picture is not very clear, so I can't be sure how big it is."
Feng Yi: "No one took pictures later?
Cai Bin said in a faint voice: "Well, the camera equipment has been updated and upgraded so fast that no one can take pictures anymore."
