"What the hell is this?" Tong Dongjie's voice was a little hoarse. At this time, the monster's head was already about one meter above the well mouth.
Thinking that he had sat at the mouth of the well during the day, Tong Dongjie couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. Looking at his actions at that time, wouldn't it be tantamount to putting himself in front of the monster's mouth?
"It's a snake!"
As if she felt that her position was not quite ready, Jing Shizhen immediately said: "It should be a python, a giant python, grandma's. How big must this python be?"
The head alone exposed at the mouth of the well was almost as thick as an ordinary person's waist. The gray eyes on both sides of the head looked unusually cold and ruthless under the firelight.
"Is it looking at us?"
Seeing the terrifying creature, Tong Dongjie regretted this trip. As the president of a listed company, why would he risk his life by sitting in the office and waiting for the result?
"Boas are like snakes. Their eyesight is useless. They rely on temperature sensing."
Jing Shizhen shook his head and said: "The sensing system of this thing is like infrared. We are fine for the time being. The heat is attracted by the fire."
Pythons are afraid of the cold and rely on their sense of heat to hunt prey. However, the fire in the yard affected the python's judgment, making it unable to detect the people behind the fire.
The huge body of the giant python is still slowly extending outward from the well mouth, and has already been exposed to a height of five or six meters outside the well. No one knows how long the body of this giant python is underground.
The scales on the python's head are twice as large as those on its body, reflecting a metallic luster under the firelight.
"It's not poisonous, we might be able to kill it." Su Xiaofan started to speak. Although this giant python was terrifying in size, Su Xiaofan didn't have much fear.
Playing with snakes is something that naughty children who grew up in the countryside have done. Ever since he wore crotchless pants, Su Xiaofan would catch water snakes and see a lot of these reptiles.
"Kill him?"
Su Xiaofan's words almost made Tong Dongjie collapse, "Brother, what should I use to kill it? Uncle Jing's money sword?"
Tong Dongjie and Su Xiaofan were both empty-handed. Only Uncle Jing had a money sword in his hand, but was that thing a weapon? It would probably fall apart if touched.
"Snake is nothing to be afraid of."
Su Xiaofan was a little eager to give it a try. Although the man in the well was a big guy, he was no longer the same person as before.
Su Xiaofan had only tested his bench press strength recently, and the barbell could no longer bear the weight, which probably exceeded 2,000 kilograms.
Su Xiaofan has not tested the power of his punch, but he feels that he can kill a cow with one punch. Although the snake looks big, if it can hit its vital points, it may not be impossible to kill it.
It seemed that it was very afraid of the fire. When the giant python's body extended about five meters from the well mouth, it stopped motionless and kept staring coldly at the burning tent.
"Master, strike first to gain the upper hand!"
Su Xiaofan was a little eager to try, "Once its body comes out completely, it will be difficult to control it. This thing has great strangulation power."
Su Xiaofan has never caught a python, but when watching TV before, he saw anacondas in adventure programs.
When that thing hunts, it strangles completely with its body. The prey is entangled so tightly that its bones are broken and it suffocates to death.
If you get entangled by this big guy in front of you, you don't have to think about the outcome, there is only a dead end.
"How did you come across such a thing?"
Jing Shizhen was also scratching her head at this moment. The vitality of snake creatures is extremely powerful, not to mention that this is most likely an extraordinary creature. It is not easy to kill it.
"If this thing lived in rivers and lakes, it would almost turn into a dragon."
"Xiaofan, can you use the thunderbolt in your palm to hit it three inches away from its body?" Jing Shizhen stared at the giant python and said.
"Three inches? Master, doesn't it mean seven inches to hit a snake?" Su Xiaofan asked in confusion.
"You can't kill it at seven inches."
Jing Shizhen shook his head and said: "Seven inches is the snake's heart. It cannot kill with one hit, and a hit will have little effect. Three inches is where the snake's cervical vertebrae are. A hit can make it temporarily comatose."
Jing Shizhen was more experienced than Su Xiaofan when it came to giant pythons. He had spent some time in the southeast corner and had seen the anaconda before.
"Can, Master, do it now?"
Compared with Tong Dongjie, who was standing tremblingly on the side, Su Xiaofan undoubtedly looked more like a person who practiced ancient martial arts, and there was no fear on his face.
"Wait a little longer and let it come out a little further. I'm afraid it will shrink back." Jing Shizhen waved her hand, signaling Su Xiaofan to be calm.
However, Jing Shizhen was very satisfied with his disciple's performance. On the contrary, Tong Dongjie was used to sitting in an office and his performance was a bit unbearable.
Of course, solving this giant python is also within the scope of solving this problem. Tong Dongjie is the boss who paid the money, and Jing Shizhen will not ask him to go into battle personally.
"Gotta make some noise."
Looking at the giant python's motionless body, Jing Shizhen picked up a small stone from the ground, flicked it with one finger, and heard a "bang" sound, and the stone hit the giant python's head.
The force with which Jing Shizhen flicked her finger was probably not much worse than that of a gun bullet, but when it was shot on the head of the giant python, it was directly bounced away by the scales, leaving no trace.
"Moo!"
It was suddenly attacked, and a low roar, a bit like a cow's braying, came from the mouth of the giant python. Its huge body suddenly rose two meters higher, and its huge head looked around.
"Move...wait!"
Just when Jing Shizhen was about to let Su Xiaofan take action, she suddenly held down Su Xiaofan's hand again.
Because at this moment, a black shadow swept down from the tree more than ten meters away and pounced directly three inches below the head of the giant python.
The speed of the black shadow was so fast that the eyes of Su Xiaofan and others could not keep up. When they saw clearly, several deep scratches were already visible three inches below the python's head.
On the body that was hard to be broken by bullets, the scratches measuring twenty to thirty centimeters were very conspicuous. The python skin was turned outwards, and bright red blood flowed down the huge body.
After the black shadow hit him, he quickly jumped off the giant python. Almost at the same time as it jumped, the giant python's body hit the ground heavily.
Even though he was nearly twenty meters away, Su Xiaofan could feel the vibrations on the ground, which showed how powerful the python's attack was.
"Moo...moo!"
The black shadow's attack was much more deadly than Jing Shizhen's stone. The python's body quickly extended outwards and rolled continuously to prevent the black shadow from attacking again.
However, in terms of speed, the giant python was obviously no match for the black shadow. Before the giant python's body could fully come out, the black shadow left several scratches on the giant python's body.
"This...is this a leopard?"
This time Su Xiaofan and others saw it clearly. The black shadow was only one meter in size and had short yellow hair all over its body. It looked very similar to a leopard, but it was a little smaller.
What was extremely inconsistent with its size was that when the creature attacked the giant python, the sharp claws that popped out in an instant were extremely long, about thirty centimeters long, like several sharp short blades, leaving marks on the giant python.
Deep wounds.
"This is a fight between dragon and tiger!" Su Xiaofan and others' eyes widened when they saw it.
Needless to say, the power of the giant python is natural. The intimidating power of its size alone is enough to make many creatures flee.
But the leopard-like creature is the python's nemesis. Its sharp claws can break through the python's defense, and its lightning-fast speed makes the python helpless.
At this moment, the giant python's huge body finally stretched out from the well mouth.
"Holy shit, it's so long?" Seeing the full view of the giant python, even Su Xiaofan couldn't help but curse.
The giant python was completely black, with a metallic sheen on its body. When its body was fully exposed, it was more than twenty meters long. The height just above the surface of the well was only a quarter of its body.
"Back off, back off!" Jing Shizhen suddenly shouted in a low voice and quickly walked around to the back of the house.
Su Xiaofan and Tong Dongjie also realized that the yard was only forty or fifty square meters in total. If the giant python rounded its body and swept across it, none of them would be able to escape.
In fact, the giant python also did this. At the same time as Su Xiaofan and others retreated, the giant python detached its tail from the wellhead and began to sweep sideways on the ground.
The burning tent was torn to pieces in an instant. A layer of the ground in the entire courtyard seemed to have been scraped off. The dust was flying, and the view of Su Xiaofan and others was suddenly blocked.
Jing Shizhen threw the money sword on the ground, which was just a burden at this time, and continued to retreat.
"This beast is very smart, keep retreating!" Jing Shizhen didn't stop until he had retreated forty or fifty meters and reached the steep slope above the house.
The giant python uses temperature and infrared to sense its prey. The flying dust had no effect on it. On the contrary, the leopard-like creature was blocked from sight and did not jump down to continue attacking.
The ground in front of the yard seemed to have been attacked by cannonballs, and the figure of the violent python disappeared and appeared in the flying dust.
"boom!"
When the giant python's huge body swept across the house, the house made of stones and loess collapsed like building blocks.
"This is faster than an excavator demolishing a house." Several people on the steep slope were speechless as they watched.
Su Xiaofan looked at his palm and felt that the thunder in his palm was no longer so fragrant. His palm hitting the giant python was probably the same as tickling it.
After venting for a while, the commotion below slowly subsided. Su Xiaofan and others did not dare to make any move for fear of attracting the python's attention.
Although the burning tent was scattered in all directions, the fixed fuel was not extinguished so easily. Through the light of the fire, the scene below could still be seen.
I don't know if it was attacked to its vitals, but the huge body of the giant python lay motionless on the ground, as if it was dead.
And that creature, which was slightly smaller than a leopard, had disappeared at this moment.
Time seemed to fall into silence. The prey and the hunter seemed to be competing for endurance. Above them, there were several people eating melons.
