The fire burned on the ant nest, emitting thick white smoke and driving away the mosquitoes buzzing around the five people.
At this time, the team leader realized something was wrong and pulled one of the people's trousers.
"Ah!!" The other people were shocked and frightened.
I saw 5 locusts attached to the calf. At this time, they had sucked their stomachs full. They were originally only as thick as cotton swabs, but now they had become as big as half a hand. I pulled up the other trouser leg.
, and saw four locusts hanging there full of blood.
"What is this!?" Everyone was disgusted and felt numb all over when they saw this thing.
The man who was found with the locusts felt his heart pounding and was very frightened. He slumped on the ground and hurriedly reached out to pull out the locusts, but was stopped by the leader.
"Don't move! I'll do it." The leader stopped him, then pulled out a piece of wood that burned with red charcoal from the fire and placed it on the leech.
The leech couldn't stand the heat, so it closed its mouth and fell to the ground. After being burned to death, it left a large pool of red and black blood.
The other locusts were like fire, making everyone's scalp numb.
The leader replied: "This is the leech, the vampire in the jungle. Didn't I tell you to tie your trousers tightly? Why didn't you listen?"
"Ah! I have mine too!"
"Me too! Ah!!"
The other two people also unzipped their trousers and found the same thing. They were instantly frightened and paralyzed to the ground. Twenty minutes had passed since the leader killed all the locusts.
Having not eaten anything, plus having been searching for dry firewood in the jungle for half an hour, and just another 20 minutes, the leader could be said to be exhausted at this time.
"Take your fishing net and go into the water to try to catch some fish and make a better breakfast." The team leader directed the only new member of the team who had relatively strong physical strength at this time.
When they came, they prepared a throwable fishing net. This fishing net brought them abundant food during their wild adventures in the past few days. It can be said that it is a major tool for their survival.
When he saw a man taking out a fishing net from a backpack, Aoki knew that the moment he had been waiting for had arrived. Aoki concentrated on staring at this man.
This man carried the fishing net and came to the river with ease, combed the net, and then threw the net into the stream. After a while, he collected it.
For the first time, I harvested a bunch of dead branches and leaves, but no fish.
Aoki stared at the water, but did not see the water patterns of the anaconda swimming. He was probably observing silently somewhere, perhaps in the flooded grass opposite, or perhaps hidden in the water at Aoki's feet.
The man patiently removed the dead branches and leaves from the fishing net one by one, then combed it again and threw it into the lake again.
After a while, the net was closed for the second time, but still no fish was caught, and what was harvested was still dead branches and leaves.
Aoki stared at the water carefully, trying to find it.
The anaconda still didn't appear.
The man took his time and wasted no time in repeatedly picking out the dead branches and leaves, and reorganizing the fishing net. This time he did not throw the net in place, but observed it and went upstream along the shore. He walked 10 meters upstream.
, there is a small bay there, which is a kind of place for fish to stay.
Throw the net, stay there for a while, and then collect the net.
"Gulu! Gulu! Gulu!" The sound of rolling water rang out, and he was delighted. He must have caught fish in the net. He quickly put the net away, and sure enough, two fish weighing about half a kilogram were caught in the net. Because of this
The net is made of special materials, so it is extremely tough. It is impossible for a fish like this to break free.
"Leader, I caught two fish!" he shouted happily.
"Haha! Well done! Bring it over quickly and make a delicious fish soup for everyone to warm up." The leader laughed when he heard this.
Others also cheered. Nothing can inspire people more than food.
"You're too happy too soon!" Aoki heard their cheers and was immediately unhappy. Unfortunately, he kept staring at the water and didn't see the anaconda appear.
The fisherman happily put away his fishing net, knocked the two fish unconscious, and stood up to carry them back to the camp.
"bump!!"
A loud bang sounded from behind him, and water splashed everywhere, causing pain on his back.
Before he could fully react, a snake as thick as a thigh sprang up from behind him like lightning, encircling him and tightening him with lightning speed. The sun shone on the snake's scales, causing a wave of ripples.
Cyan flash.
"Boom!!" The snake wrapped around the body crashed into the water, causing waves of waves.
"Oh! No!!" The leader shouted angrily when he saw the horrifying scene. He picked up the machete on his waist and rushed to the place where the accident occurred, staring at the stream.
"Come out, you beast! Come out if you can!" The team leader waved his machete and shouted angrily at the stream. Unfortunately, he did not see the python or the person at this time. He only saw the
The blood that keeps rolling is constantly being diluted and faded in the water flow.
The other three were stunned by the horrific scene in front of them. They were so frightened that they could not stand up. They could only crawl back in fear, trying to escape from this damn place.
Aoki witnessed the whole process and was shocked by the big anaconda. It is no exaggeration to say that the big anaconda is big. It is about 17 meters long and 40cm in diameter, which is extremely amazing.
When he was studying in the past, Aoki knew that the largest snake in the world was only over 14 meters. In 2006, a very rare snake was exhibited in a small park in Indonesia, with a length of 14.85 meters and a weight of 447 kilograms. This is the longest snake in the world in the past 100 years.
The longest and largest snake ever discovered is also the largest snake in the world.
Now in Aoki's view, this so-called largest snake in the world is simply weaker than the giant anaconda Aoki sees now.
After the anaconda hunted a piece of food, it sank into the water and never appeared again.
The team leader was not only angry but also regretful. He blamed himself for asking him to go fishing alone. A living person died in front of him. The team leader felt extremely regretful and self-blame.
At this time, the group was no longer in the mood to enjoy breakfast. They packed their bags, ate some dry food, and hurriedly set out on the road to leave this dangerous place. Who knows whether it might feel that there was not enough food and run away.
However, when one person is almost disabled and the two are weak, can they get out of the jungle? Return to human society?
After they left, although the jungle once again returned to calm, the original scene could never be restored to the past. The scattered scaffoldings, burned turf, and chopped tree trunks all showed the trauma they had suffered.
.
In this way, another month passed peacefully.
During this month, Aoki finally figured out some of the situation.
1. This is the territory of the anaconda. Most animals will establish their own territory and leave various marks to mark it. The occupied land is used as a breeding ground. Other animals are not allowed to invade and the intruders are driven out.
And then defend the territory. This explains why no other large animals have been seen in the past few months.
Second, here, there is abundant rainfall, high temperature, sultry climate, lush trees, and a wide variety of species, all of which prove that this is a tropical rainforest. But Aoki is not sure where it is. Amazon jungle? Congo Basin? Horseshoe
Come to the peninsula? Indo-China Peninsula? Mentra Island? These all need further confirmation.
It is worth mentioning that the recovery in the jungle is indeed very fast. After a month, the trees that were originally cut down have quickly grown branches and buds, and have re-declared their new life. However, the trees that have not re-grown new branches and buds have quickly grown.
The space was occupied by the trees chasing up from the side.
The cedar tree next to the green wood also began to grow new trunks from the lower layer and regained its vitality. However, the original nest of ants had become a pile of fertilizer to feed the jungle.
During this month, Aoki has not fallen at all. At this time, it has grown to a height of 50cm, and its roots have reached a depth of 150cm.
