Everyone held their breath. No one knew what Si Weiqi wanted. It would be too absurd to kill the giant python with just a soft sword in his hand, but Si Weiqi's men seemed to be able to do it.
There is no record of a missed attempt. Maybe she really has a way to kill the giant python with one blow.
I didn't care, I took out the flying knife from my pocket and shot. However, the bamboo raft shook so violently that the flying knife lost its accuracy. Besides, it was impossible to tell whether it hit the target or not in the dark.
I shot randomly, but then I thought about it, if all the flying knives are used up now, if I encounter danger next, I don’t even have anything to defend myself and keep a few more. Just when I was about to find other guys to continue the fight to the death, I saw
The giant python turned over and swam away.
"What happened?" I asked in surprise. This scene was shocking and beyond everyone's expectations. "I was already ready to fight in the water. Why did this giant python escape? Could it be that the hero was attacked by Sister Qi?
Are you scared by the momentum?"
I saw Si Weiqi turning around in confusion. It seemed that the giant python suddenly retreated, and it was not because of her. She shook her head and said: "Don't be careless, there may be something else here."
When I heard this, I shivered violently, "Animals have very strict territorial boundaries. This giant python doesn't dare to go any further. Is there something in front of it that scares it?"
"Does the giant python have other natural enemies here?"
At this moment, I suddenly heard a very strange sound coming from the water. It was probably a little far away. The sound was not very clear, but judging from the sound, it did not sound like it was coming from a huge thing, but more like a group of things.
Sounds coming from underwater.
I immediately thought of fish schools, but what kind of fish can scare even giant pythons? This sound can make people feel chills on the back of their necks, "Since when have there been fish among freshwater fish that can scare even giant pythons?"
?”
"Stop talking." Xu Qian hissed and observed the water surface carefully.
Suddenly, from a distance, I saw the place where the giant python had just left. With a sudden movement, a several-meter-long snake body emerged from the water, and then fell into the water at a very fast speed. Then it struggled like crazy.
.And the underwater sounds became louder and denser. The water in the direction where the giant python swam seemed to be boiling, as if some animal was fighting desperately there.
"Is it really a fish?" I shined my flashlight from a distance, and I could see that the nearby river water turned dark red, which seemed to be dyed red by a large amount of blood.
"It can't be a piranha, right?" Chen Ziyue said, pulling on the corner of my clothes.
"Where did the piranha come from here?" I don't believe in the piranha at all. The so-called piranha generally refers to a fish called the piranha, native to the Amazon River, and the representative species is called
Red-bellied piranhas (pomfret) are small in size, beautiful in color, but extremely cruel in character. They have sharp teeth. Once the bitten prey spills blood, it will go crazy and use its sharp canines to act like a surgeon.
The scalpel bites and cuts like crazy until a pile of bones is left. In the Amazon River Basin of Brazil, piranhas are listed as the first of the four most dangerous aquatic creatures in the area. In the Brazilian Amazon, where piranhas are most active,
In the state of Grosso, about 1,200 cattle are eaten by piranhas in the river every year. Some children playing in the water and
Women washing clothes are also attacked by piranhas from time to time. Piranhas are called water wolves and water ghosts because of their ferocious characteristics.
However, there are no similar ferocious fish in China's freshwater systems. Even though there are some carnivorous fish, such as the catfish (note 1), they are huge and are large carnivorous fish.
It is impossible to commit crimes in a group attack like the school of fish in the water.
"Pull forward quickly!" Si Weiqi urged.
I didn't dare to waste another second, so I paddled hurriedly toward the exit with no end in sight, but the sound of the fish behind me became more and more intense. But the more anxious I was, the slower I paddled, and I saw the giant python.
He was so sick that he rushed to the hospital and ran away like crazy towards us, attracting all the fish. As the fish got closer, we saw countless finger-sized fish wrapping up the giant python.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, no one would believe that it was such a small fish that turned this big python into this shape.
"Sister Qi, what kind of fish is this?" I was horrified.
"Vampire fish." Si Weiqi said calmly.
"Vampire fish? What is this?"
"Vampire fish are parasitic freshwater fish. Because their bodies are translucent and small, they are difficult to detect in natural conditions when they disperse. They have very sensitive sensors that can capture blood like sharks.
Then they will assemble, and thousands of vampire fish will pierce the sharp spines on the gills of the prey, and then get into the body to suck the blood."
Vampire fish are only about the length of a finger knuckle, about the same size as the "traffic light" tropical fish usually kept in fish tanks. Their bodies are as transparent and slender as spindles. They often move in groups. Normally, they will swim in groups toward the larger ones.
Fish that are much larger than themselves, then tear their tissues and suck blood. When they suck blood, they will release an anti-coagulant chemical to prevent the blood from coagulating and losing its freshness. After sucking blood, the body of a vampire fish will swell.
Two or three times, like a flea, the body is no longer transparent, but turns red.
In addition, they have another habit, that is, they love the smell of urine. They usually live in the mud layer at the bottom of the water, feed on the humus at the bottom, and will also follow the feces of other fish. If someone once
When you urinate in water, they will come looking for the smell and penetrate into the body unimpeded. By the time you notice it, they can no longer be taken out. In 1997, a patient underwent a 2-hour operation before the doctor removed a 13.4 cm
Vampire fish removed from its scrotum.
If you look closely, you will see that the school of vampire fish is very large, numbering in the thousands. They roll around and bite the giant python. The more blood they shed, the more excited the fish become, and they cling to the giant python like crazy.
The giant python was sucked into the body of the python, and then kept drilling into the body. It is difficult for a good tiger to resist a pack of wolves. In less than half a minute, the giant python was sucked until only the skin and bones were left.
"Pull quickly!" Chen Ziyue urged Lin Kun from the side.
"Don't rush, be careful to attract them again." I lowered my voice as much as possible, carefully supported the bamboo pole, and slowly moved away from the blood-stained water.
"I'm afraid these vampire fish, which are jealous of blood, are all over the river. Because the giant python left blood, it attracted the vampire fish.
In nature, one thing destroys another, and they are mutually reinforcing and restraining each other. They can be regarded as saving our lives and preventing us from being buried in the belly of the python." I said.
"Haha, Master Biao, you are so optimistic. Look what that is?"
Before Xu Qian could even finish her words, she heard that magic sound coming from far away, and she had already arrived around the bamboo raft. When I heard that weird sound, every hair on my head stood up.
"Damn it, they really won't stop fighting, why are they still clinging to us?"
"People's hearts are not as good as snakes swallowing elephants. The balance of nature is relative. Once there is a slight deviation, it will turn into destruction!"
Those little vampire fish were like waves of water, constantly rushing towards the bamboo raft. The bamboo raft was still in danger, and it was estimated that it would be difficult to withstand another wave of attacks. As she said that, Xu Qian also took out a handful of silver.
He aimed the needle at the dense school of fish in the water and threw it down. The river was instantly dyed red with fish blood. When other vampire fish saw the blood, they rushed over to suck blood, regardless of whether they were of the same kind or not. The crisis on the bamboo raft was also over.
It was solved easily.
"Sometimes, destruction means rebirth." Xu Qian showed a relaxed expression and said, "Look, it's okay."
I looked at those vampire fish that killed their own kind, and couldn't help but sigh. However, human beings were staged such ridiculous plots one after another. Those vampire fish that died in vain soon only had skins floating on the water.
But more fish schools were still wandering nearby and refused to leave. I couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief and said: "What a blessing among misfortunes. I never thought in my life that one day I would be eaten by fish.
OK, not bad."
Not long after, the sky finally appeared in front of us. The water surface became more open, but the height between the water surface and the cave roof above also became lower and lower, nearly one meter. We could only sit on it and pass. The speed of the bamboo raft
I gradually picked up speed, and then I saw the water bank. The outlet of the waterway was hidden among the dense trees.
A few of us first threw our hiking bags to the shore one by one. Then we slowly docked. Although the bamboo raft was broken, we still had to rely on it when we went back. We dragged the bamboo raft ashore and measured it.
After taking the direction, I loaded up my equipment and finally started my journey on land.
When the ancestors of Yuling dug this waterway, it was so that future generations could come to the back mountain safely. The secrets in this world are always relative and unknown, just to wait for the right time and the right place.
Someone comes to unravel the dust-laden mystery.
After walking for nearly an hour, the front suddenly opened up. A majestic mountain peak towered in front of us. Although it was not as lonely and steep as Mount Huashan, it still had the majesty of being awe-inspiring and unclimbable. Not long after we walked, the sound of water rumbled in front of us.
, as usual, there was still no way around, and we saw a small waterfall flowing down the cliff on one side like flying beads and jade. The waterfall flowed down and turned into a river, blocking our way.
Note:
