Heavenly Calamity - Chapter 18
[Chapter 18]
The skins of two large crocodiles were peeled off and threw on a stone to be exposed to the sun. As for the meat, it was sliced and grilled on the bonfire, but the fragrance was overflowing in a moment.
The whole body of crocodile is muscle, and its meat fat content is less than half of beef, and its taste is particularly delicious, which is a rare delicacy.
Two large crocodiles over three meters long are enough for five people to eat their stomachs.
Leng Yun’s mood was a little low, and she couldn’t help thinking of Qin Min, who was with everyone last night, eating meat and talking.
Those who have not experienced this feeling will never understand.
Leng Yun even had the illusion that she was not dead.
But her reason is telling her that this is impossible, Qin Min is completely dead, I am afraid that even the corpse or some passing monster has eaten it.
The gap is so strong that there is no psychological preparation at all.
Zhang Mu handed over a bunch of crocodile meat: “Don’t be too sad, you will have the strength to fight if you fill your stomach.”
“I understand.” Leng Yun nodded and took the meat skewer from Zhang Mu’s hand. The barbecue was just right, slightly burnt on the surface, cooked inside, and oozing with attractive grease.
Leng Yun took a bite, the crocodile meat was a bit old, but the taste was excellent.
Of course, this aspect is determined by the grilling technique.
Sun Bing asked, “This swamp is huge. It’s not easy for us to get through it.”
Hearing the words, Fatty agreed and said, “Yes, it’s all muddy and muddy, don’t mention how hard it is to walk.”
“Do you want to take a detour?” Chen Ling whispered, and she looked around: “This place is too large, it will take at least a day or two.”
Zhang Mu said while eating the meat, “There is a way, don’t worry.”
When all the people were full, the crocodile skin was almost sun-dried. Zhang Mu cut the crocodile skin to make a strong long rope, and then asked everyone to cut the reeds, and a large piece of reeds was placed in front of him after a while.
Fatty was puzzled: “Boss, what are so many reeds for? You can’t eat them!”
Zhang Mu picked up a reed and broke it gently, “The reed itself is very light, and at the same time it is a hollow structure, so it can generate enough buoyancy. We make a reed raft and go upstream from the swamp, which is better than walking across the swamp. Much easier.”
Leng Yun’s eyes lit up and said, “Good idea!”
Fatty was a little worried, “What if a fish-like monster runs out of the water?”
Zhang Mu shook his head and said, “The swamp itself obviously doesn’t have much water. The heavy rain last night made the water temporarily deeper, and there won’t be any large monsters. Of course, be careful. The absence of water monsters does not mean that there are no people living in the swamp. Monsters, crocodiles are an example, watch out.”
The fat man said, “That’s fine, that’s fine.”
Several people chopped wood for reinforcement, and tied two light rafts with ropes made of crocodile skin.
As for using the extra reeds to make some tools similar to life buoys, in case of accidentally falling into the mud, it can also generate writing buoyancy, so as not to sink into the mud.
They found five long bamboos as paddles, and five people pushed the raft into the water.
Leng Yun, Chen Ling, and Sun Bing ride on a raft.
Fatty can’t swim and weighs about two pounds, so he shared a raft with Zhang Mu,
let’s go.
Zhang Mu supported the slender bamboo poles and moved forward in the wetlands. Because of the heavy rain last night, the middle of the swamp was filled with black and turbid muddy water, but the water was not deep. It looked like half a meter to one meter, and the water was a thick silt swamp.
When the bamboo pole is inserted into the mud, there will always be a lot of air bubbles, which will come out and release a smell similar to that of a septic tank.
This is biogas, the biogas produced by the long-term accumulation of plants. The swamp must be very deep, and if you sink into it, you will die.
The five people held their breath and paddled forward, the reed raft floated six or seven hundred meters, the terrain became more low-lying, and the water became deeper, surrounded by reeds, most of which were more than two meters high, full of spikes. The small beige flowers, when a gust of wind blew across the earth, wrinkled the water surface, and blew the reeds down, looking up, green splashed thousands of acres.
In many dandelion-like plants, a white seed was raised.
Under the blue sky, in the gentle breeze, the green spreads thousands of miles, and the wild birds fly together.
In the bright sunshine, in the swaying water waves, the reed flowers are everywhere, and the white flakes are all over the sky.
What a poetic sight!
No one appreciates it!
There was only one thought in the minds of the five, and that was to leave the swamp quickly.
This kind of place makes people feel insecure, danger may appear at any time, and no one knows whether the raft will fall over in the next second.
For about ten minutes, everyone was praying in their hearts that there should be no accidents, but sometimes, the more you are afraid of something, the more you encounter something.
The disturbing situation finally happened.
When the two rafts passed through a particularly large reed field, a “quack” sounded from the group of reeds in front, and a large flock of frightened gray birds flew from it.
Zhang Mu raised his hand, and everyone stopped paddling, all staring nervously inside the reed.
Sun Bing asked in a low voice, “What’s wrong?”
Zhang Mu replied in a low voice, “Looks like there is something, let’s take a detour.”
Leng Yun’s heart hung up, surrounded by bottomless swamps, at this moment more than 1,000 meters away from the other side.
If there is an attack, the consequences are really unimaginable.
Everyone’s eyes focused on it, the reeds were too high and dense, so they couldn’t see what was inside.
However, no one questioned Zhang Mu’s words, and they immediately turned around and prepared to avoid it.
At this time, there was a sound from the reed. Something was constantly pushing the reed away. Judging from the crooked reed, its size was probably not small, and it was moving towards it.
Cold sweat broke out on the fat man’s face: “Damn, what the hell!”
That thing is getting closer and closer, and many reeds are bent, getting closer and closer…
Sun Bing took out his shield: “It’s coming!”
The nearby reeds were all squeezed out, and when they were about to emerge from the drill, a strange scene appeared, and the sound in the reeds disappeared.
The five talents were ready for battle, but they were all stunned when they didn’t see anything emerging from the reeds.
Chen Ling held the axe nervously, “This…why is it suddenly gone?”
Grumpy Grumpy!
In the sewage, a large number of air bubbles turned out from the water.
Zhang Mu’s pupils shrank suddenly and shouted loudly, “Be careful, it’s underwater!”
boom!
The surface of the water was suddenly broken open. It was a thirteen- or four-meter-long giant python, with a white ring pattern all over its body, a triangular head spitting out letters, and icy eyes staring at several people.
It is four stories tall and slightly thicker than an adult man’s body. It is an unheard of giant python!

, Introduction: A brutal anaconda, which has become more powerful because of the erosion of evil forces.
Fatty exclaimed: “Fuck, did you make a mistake!”
The speed of the swamp anaconda was too fast for everyone to react. The giant tail swept over with a thousand force. The reed raft of several people was knocked over on the spot. In the thin mud of the swamp, a lot of methane gas was stirred up during the struggle, and countless air bubbles tumbled out of the muddy water.
“Damn, damn it! I hate water!” The fat man was like a fat pig falling into the water, struggling and screaming in panic, “Where can such a big snake come from!”
This is an anaconda. In fact, there is no essential difference between an anaconda and a python, except that the way of reproduction is different. The anaconda is mainly ovoviviparous, and the python is mostly oviparous.
This kind of giant snake is generally not poisonous, but it is very fast, and if it gets entangled, it will die.
Zhang Mu stuck his head out of the muddy water. The position where he fell into the water was far away from the others. The reed raft was completely scattered and scattered everywhere.
Fortunately, the five people were all wearing life buoys made of reeds, and they all surfaced in time. Even so, they all turned into clay figurines.
The four-story-high body of the giant python lifted up, bent into a dangerous S-shape, and assumed a posture of attacking.
Once this kind of giant snake entangles the target, it will break the bones of the whole body in an instant, and it will be entangled in the muddy water of the swamp.
When his life was on the line, ordinary people were already panic-stricken, but Zhang Mu calmly analyzed the situation, immediately found the source of vitality, and shouted loudly: “Reed, that piece of reed, you are about to get up to that piece of reed, since you are suffering from a giant python. Weight, then it must be able to bear our weight!”
When the four heard this, it was as if they had caught a life-saving straw.
There is absolutely no chance of winning in water battles. If you fight in a land environment, there is still hope to defeat it. The giant python weighs less than 300 kilograms. It can move on the reeds, and others can stand on it.
Leng Yun raised her staff, and an ice arrow shot at the giant python, causing 45 points of high damage, and the frost effect slowed it down a lot.
Sun Bing pulled the fat man and was trying his best to advance towards the reed area, with Chen Ling following closely behind.
“Fizz!”
After the python was injured by the ice arrow, UU read www.sonicmtl.com was completely angry, and turned his head to attack Leng Yun.
Sun Bing and Fatty climbed onto the reed. Sun Bing turned his head and used a taunt. When the giant python was about to attack Leng Yun, he was suddenly affected by the skill effect of the taunt. His eyes widened, his legs felt weak, and he hurriedly turned his head and ran into the reed area.
Zhang Mu’s judgment is not bad, because there is a lot of mud under the reeds, so there is a piece of ground. Although it is very incomplete, there are a lot of puddles hidden, and walking deeper and shallower is better than fighting in the water.
The speed of the giant python was too fast, setting off two waves of water, rushing over like a dragon.
Sun Bing panicked, his feet suddenly became empty, his entire right leg stepped into a large puddle, and half of his body was submerged in the water.
The python took the opportunity to rush up to entangle his body, and began to perform the unique trick of the python’s entanglement and strangulation.
Sun Bing opened the petrified skin, but because of his physique, he could not resist the strangulation of the giant python.
At this time, Zhang Mucai had just boarded the reed area, more than ten meters away, and it was too late to rescue him.
Seeing this, the fat man roared, his whole body was enveloped in red energy and rushed forward, a savage charge slammed into the python’s body, causing 44 points of high damage. Hit the jungle blade.
The attack power of the jungle sword is as high as 24 points, combined with the amazing strength of the Berserker, causing 32 points of damage, while cutting the tough scales and snake skin of the python.
The python roared and swept its tail vigorously, hitting the fat man’s chest.
This blow may seem simple, but in fact it is extremely powerful. The fat man, weighing more than 250 pounds, flew out of the reeds and fell into the muddy water. After taking a few mouthfuls of dirty and smelly muddy water, he almost fainted in the water. .
“Fat!”
Zhang Mu was shocked and stretched out his hand to pull it.
(Thanks to Zhuxing and Taotao12 for their generosity!)
