Chapter 394

Gail frowned again. He knew that what Berlin said was not wrong at all. If there were one or two rattlesnakes found in the desert, it was okay to say that they should be carefully avoided. The most feared thing is to encounter Snake nest, this thing is really a headache, because it most likely means that there are large rattlesnakes around.

For experienced desert walkers, one or several rattlesnakes are not to be feared, and even when there is a lack of food, they will hunt and kill rattlesnakes to eat, but unless it is absolutely necessary, no one will deal with such a rattlesnake. stuff.

Not to mention facing swarms of rattlesnakes.

"In the afternoon, let's try again and see how the situation is. We finally got here. It's too much to go back like this..."

Of course, Gail didn't want to just go back like this. After all, he had already invested a lot of time and energy in this matter, and of course money. Not to mention, just forming this expedition team cost a lot of money.

"Okay, let's try again."

Berlin understands Gail's mood at this time. In fact, he also has the same mentality. His purpose of coming to Gail is just to tell him that the current state of the entire team is not good. Don't force it. At this time, he knows that Gail just wants to Try again, and naturally you won't be too verbose.

After noon, when the temperature was the highest, Berlin urged the entire team to tidy up the tents, and then the group walked forward slowly. As for the few people who were bitten by snakes yesterday, they lay on special sand boats and pulled them to the ground. go forward.

"coming!"

Fang Ming put down the binoculars in his hand, and said softly to Zhao Zhuzi who was lying beside him. From the moment he was ready, he and Zhao Zhuzi divided the work. One person monitored for an hour, and the other rested. to his surveillance.

When Zhao Zhuzi heard this, he got up immediately, took a look at the binoculars in Fang Ming's hand, and then said with a smile, "Hey! Let's see how they pass through our Ten Thousand Snake Formation."

Of course, the Ten Thousand Snake Formation is a bit exaggerated, but there are still nearly a thousand of them. Thinking that the sandy ground was full of rattlesnakes, Fang Ming also laughed and said, "Hey, yes, wait and see the good show!"

From the beginning of departure, Gail's brows have been frowning, because he was bitten by a snake yesterday, so after departure today, the whole team walked forward cautiously and at a very slow speed. He really wanted to go faster, but But he knew that this was impossible. Years of experience made him understand that if he pushed too hard at this time, other people would definitely come up with other ideas. After all, the entire team was invited by himself. Work for wages - if you are in a hurry, you will give up Taozi and quit. Who would give away his life for a little money?

Besides, the guide had been bitten yesterday, and he was lying on the sand boat at this time. It would be even more dangerous to walk in the desert without his help.

In the end, Gail had to walk in front of the team to open the way, or the whole team seemed to be unable to walk, which is definitely not a good sign.

"Gal, this is not going to work."

Berlin is walking beside Gail. He is also a person with many years of adventure experience, and he knows that the team is in big trouble at this time.

"Yes……"

Before Gail finished speaking, he broke off immediately, because he suddenly felt his boots stepped on a slippery thing, he was startled, and when he looked under his feet, he immediately saw a rattlesnake emerging from the sand , raised his head high, and bit down hard.

"Snapped!"

With a soft sound, the rattlesnake's head hit the boot hard, and then slid onto the sand, twisting back a few steps, but still staring at Gale.

Gail's heartbeat accelerated suddenly, and a cold sweat broke out. Fortunately, he was wearing boots, fortunately, he only stepped on one, and fortunately, the rattlesnake in front of him was not big... Otherwise, he might have been bitten!
"Oh shit!"

Looking at the rattlesnake less than two steps away from him, Gail cursed fiercely. He raised his foot and wanted to step on it—wanted to kill the rattlesnake that had attacked him once, but In the end, he tried his best to control his anger, and slowly put his feet down.

Years of experience told him that in such a situation, it is better for him to be vindictive. If he is not afraid of what happens, he will be afraid of [-]. It will not do him any good if he tramples to death that rattlesnake, but in case something happens and he is bitten , that would really be a big loss.

Stretching out the stick in his hand, Gale picked the rattlesnake far away, and then continued to walk forward.Seeing that Gail managed to control his temper in the end, Berlin also breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that once Gail had to kill the snake, it would be enough to show that Gail was out of control, and there was no need for the entire team to fight again. If you go on, it will definitely be a dead end - it's better to pat your ass and go back to your own home.

However, Berlin's heart quickly rose again, and his brows became more and more wrinkled, and finally his whole face became tight.

"Where... damn... where are there so many rattlesnakes?"

After Gail stepped on a rattlesnake, within a few meters of walking, Berlin saw that the sand in front of him was "covered" with rattlesnakes, some of which were coiled in the stone, with only a snake head exposed, and some of them were simply on the sand." "Sisi" wagging their tails and crawling slowly, obviously the high temperature brought by the sun above their heads makes them in a frenzy, it's better to provoke them at this time, or it's not necessarily very scary .

"Damn! What's going on here? How come there are so many snakes?!"

Gail's face was ashen. After bypassing yesterday's snake nest, he prayed together that he would encounter rattlesnakes again. He didn't care about stepping on one before, but what he saw at this time really made him His heart became cold: count it, and there are at least ten of them that can be seen!
Could it be that after I met the snake den, I encountered the snake den again?If it's just these ten, it's not a big problem, just go around, but the problem is that there are already ten in sight, and God knows where there are more rattlesnakes hiding?

There is no problem with what can be seen, just stay away from them, don't enter their "territory", and don't get close to their attack radius, then they will have no lethality.The crux of the matter is, what about the invisible?Like the one I stepped on before?

Gail stopped in his tracks, trying to figure out what to do next.

"I'll go and have a look, you stay here first."

After thinking for a while, Gail made a decision to let the whole team stop first, and then he walked forward slowly, carefully avoiding those rattlesnakes that seemed to have gone mad, but what made him desperate was After bypassing the ten rattlesnakes he saw before, he saw more rattlesnakes. It seemed that this place was a place where rattlesnakes were extremely concentrated—a real snake den!

"Damn it! It's really unlucky!"

Gail cursed, and then slowly backed away after wiping the sweat gushing from his forehead - he didn't know whether it was the heat or something else!

"how is the situation?"

Although Berlin already knew the result based on Gail's face, he still asked with a ten-thousandth hope.

"There are more ahead."

Berlin understood as soon as he heard it. There were already a dozen or so pieces in the small area in front of him, and there were more in front. The only possibility was that this was a snake den for rattlesnakes.

"Looks like we'll have to take a detour."

Gail nodded and said, "Yes, this place is not easy, let's take a detour."

There are a lot of people in the whole team, and there will be a lot of movement. There are so many rattlesnakes here. Once they force it past, it will definitely cause the rattlesnakes to "retaliate" and launch an active attack. Therefore, Gail can only choose to detour. The risk is really great. too big.

However, Gail found that this was not the end. After half a day, he still found that there were rattlesnakes in front of him, and there were quite a few of them!
"Damn, what the hell is going on here? Have all the rattlesnakes in this desert gathered here?"

Gail grabbed his sweat-soaked hair fiercely and shook his head. Although he had encountered many before, he had never been so concentrated. This is really chilling.

Although treasures are tempting, they have to have life flowers.

As night fell, Gail and Berlin sat by the fire in front of the tent, but neither of them had any desire to talk.However, you can't really not say it, after all, you still have to decide what to do tomorrow.

"Gal, what should we do?"

Gail took the cup, put it into his mouth, drank a sip of boiling water, and said after a long silence: "There is not much to do, we can only go around now, keep going around, and see How is the situation ahead?"

"But... in this way, we can easily lose our direction and deviate from our original goal, and it may even be a large distance."

In the desert, it doesn't mean that if you have a compass or something, you will be able to move in the right direction together, and you will be affected by too many factors, and it is very likely that you will get lost and unable to get out.In the vast desert, there are sands and dunes everywhere. If you see a lot, it will be the same everywhere. Getting lost is a common thing!Especially now that the wizard has fallen again, this problem is even more serious.

"Well, I know that, but we've all come here, and it's a shame to just give up like this."

Galton took a moment, then continued: "Try it and see how it goes."

Berlin fell silent, he knew Gail was right.

"Try again tomorrow, if it doesn't work, just give up."

Gail drank the water in the glass in one gulp, stood up and walked to the tent. The situation is really depressing now.
