Chapter 11 The Holy Land Cry (1)
Yasha took the snake head and inspected it carefully, her face became more and more surprised, her eyes finally fixed on the two sharp snake teeth in the open snake mouth, and she couldn't help screaming: "Look! This snake's teeth are the wrong color!"

Walking in the boundless forest for several days and nights in a row is definitely not an activity that ordinary people can bear. It not only involves physical fitness, but more importantly, this primitive environment is full of dangers and hardships everywhere.

Yasha became the best guide for everyone. This Eku girl is almost an encyclopedia of the primeval forest. She knows every plant in the forest and knows what dangers to avoid when traveling in such a big forest. With the task in hand, everyone can really regard this operation as a wonderful forest trip.

"I like the big forest, but I yearn for the outside world more!" During the break, Yasha unabashedly opened his heart to everyone, "When I was young, a member of our tribe went outside for many years. He told me a lot of things outside. He also brought back a few books and taught me to recognize the characters outside. I have loved reading since then. I have read all the books that tourists gave me. Again. I told my father that I don't want to stay in the big forest for the rest of my life, but I want to go out and see the beautiful world outside, but he doesn't agree, he wants me to stay by his side forever."

Speaking of this, Yasha's face darkened, and his expression was a little depressed.

"So, you ran out by yourself later?" Luo Hong looked at Yasha who had a child's expression, and asked with a smile.

Yasha shook his head, his tone full of sadness: "No, we quarreled many times because of these things, and he beat me, but the last time he took the initiative to let me go... Now that I think about it, maybe he already realized..."

"Anyway, you are lucky, Yasha." Ouyang Kai comforted the lonely Yasha, "After this matter is over, you can still go to the capital to go to school. You are a smart and kind girl. A new hope for the Kurds."

"Thank you." Yasha looked at Ouyang Kai gratefully, and suddenly asked, "Then... then can I go to China to study? I heard Chinese tourists from our tribe say that China is a magical place!"

"Of course, we will help you!" Ouyang Kai nodded sincerely.

A smile finally appeared on Yasha's face. She wiped away her tears, looked at the crowd, happily held hands with Luo Hong, and gradually fell asleep...

In the moonlight, Etta sat leaning against a big tree, still holding the python revolver that he had wiped repeatedly in his hand, but looked at Yasha's sleeping face from a distance with a pair of big eyes.Ouyang Kai glanced at him sideways, and he quickly lowered his head, rubbing the handle of the pistol uncomfortably.

On the third day, everyone arrived at a low-lying valley in the forest. Compared with the two sides, the trees here were much sparser, only a large area of ​​dense bushes. luster.

Under a large brown rock, a clear spring gurgled along one side, and on the wet moss around the spring water, densely packed footprints of various animals could be seen.There are animal footprints, which means that the water is drinkable, which makes everyone's spirits lifted, and they take off the water bottles and go forward to replenish water.

"Be careful!" Ouyang Kai suddenly grabbed Etta, who was rushing to get water after taking off the water bottle. Etta's foot was about to step over the low side of the bushes, but Ouyang Kai grabbed her abruptly. When he came back, he was taken aback, but before he could speak, a horrible hiss came.

After a trembling in the bushes, a big snake suddenly appeared in front of everyone!The whole body of the big snake was grayish-brown, gradually becoming lighter from head to tail, and the whole body was three meters long. After jumping out of the bush, the almost rectangular head of the snake was terribly high, slowly approaching Ouyang Kai and Etta!

"Black... Black Mamba!" Yasha behind the side even changed his tone, "Don't move...everyone, don't move!"

Ouyang Kai and Eta were standing about two or three meters away from the black mamba, followed by Luo Hong and Fu Xiaofeng, Yasha was standing on their side, and five people stood like clay sculptures, looking at the big snake He was spitting out a blood-red letter, showing terrifying fangs between the upper and lower jaws, and half of the snake's body almost stood upright!This is the signal that the Black Mamba is about to attack.

The surrounding air seemed to freeze, at this moment, no matter who it was, even a slight movement was enough to arouse its fury, and at such a distance, it was almost impossible to avoid the black mamba's attack.

The black mamba has no intention of backing down, and its erect snake body is gradually approaching Ouyang Kai and Eta in the front—the effect of standing still has become weaker and weaker.

Luo Hong glanced at the knife belt on the side of her thigh, but soon became secretly depressed. She was absolutely not sure that she could draw the knife faster than the black mamba, not to mention that there was still a distance between her and her body. Look at Ouyang Kai and Etta!
"Etta...wait a minute...you stand still..." Ouyang Kai stared at the poisonous snake and whispered.

"Shotgun, you..." Luo Hong behind had already guessed what Ouyang Kai meant, but before she finished speaking, Ouyang Kai made a move, and saw his body suddenly flashed to the side, the black mamba Responding immediately, the terrifying Shekou showed its long and sharp fangs, and rushed towards the direction where he flashed like lightning!

In an instant, Ouyang Kai's hand had already slashed out against the black mamba's snake head, and the body of the snake that swooped over made a crisp collision with Ouyang Kai's palm. Ouyang Kai pushed back abruptly.

The moment the snake retreated behind, Ouyang Kai rushed to the snake's back like lightning, grabbed the snake's tail, and swung it out before the poisonous snake turned around to attack again!

The insolent Black Mamba probably never thought that the "prey" in front of him would move so swiftly, the snake backed up quickly, hit the big brown rock heavily, and fell into the spring water, rolling several times in a row Only then did he "stabilize" his figure again.Immediately, it let out a strange hissing cry from its furious mouth, and threw itself at Ouyang Kai without hesitation!
"Hunting knife!" Ouyang Kai roared angrily while retreating violently.

"Crack——" the sound of metal piercing through the air came, and Luo Hong's steel knife gleaming with silver cold light collided with the body of the snake that swooped over again, and the blade passed under the snake's head, carrying a bloody arrow, " After the crisp sound of "ding", it was directly stuck on the big rock, and the whole blade trembled violently.

The body of the black mamba that swooped towards Ouyang Kai paused, and the snake's head was immediately out of touch with the body. The whole snake's body fell into the grass, and the snake's head still rushed forward by virtue of inertia, and Ouyang Kai dodged it sideways.

The entire process of this thrilling human-snake battle is only a short three to five seconds.The body of the headless poisonous snake was still writhing violently in the grass. Except for Fu Xiaofeng, who had a relatively normal expression, Etta and Yasha almost unanimously stared at Ouyang Kai with their mouths wide open. With Luo Hong, there was only one thought in mind: the movements of these two people are really too fast, and the cooperation is too tacit!

Luo Hong walked up to the big rock, pulled out her own knife, and watched with some distress that the tip of the alloy knife was hit into an obtuse angle by the hard rock, then turned her head and gave Ouyang Kai a hard look, feeling sorry for his risky behavior just now. is dissatisfaction.

Ouyang Kai smiled and gave Luo Hong a thumbs up.

"I swear! You are definitely not ordinary criminal policemen from China! I have had this idea for a long time!" Etta finally regained her composure, and was looking at Ouyang Kai and Luo Hong with great admiration, "Oh my God! Who is it?"

"It doesn't matter who we are, does it?" Ouyang Kai walked forward nonchalantly, patted Etta's shoulder with a smile, pointed to the spring water and said, "Now, you can replenish water."

Etta and Fu Xiaofeng went to the spring to fill water, while Ouyang Kai observed the headless snake on the ground with great interest.Luo Hong looked at him with some restraint, and blamed in a low voice: "When will you not be so risky in doing things? What if I missed it just now?"

"So, I'm not taking risks, but I have absolute confidence in you." Ouyang Kai raised his head and said with a smile, "Think about it, we have been working together for a few years, when did you miss it?"

"Don't put a high hat on me!" Luo Hong glared at Ouyang Kai, then turned his gaze to Yasha, who also focused on the snake, with a strange expression on his face.

"Yasha, what's wrong with you?" Luo Hong stepped forward and gently held her arm, "Still afraid?"

"I don't... We Eku people live in the big forest and deal with poisonous snakes all day long. I have nothing to be afraid of. I just..." Yasha paused and said suddenly, "I'm just wondering, there shouldn't be Heyman here. Snake!"

"What do you mean by that?" Luo Hong looked at Yasha in surprise, and Ouyang Kai who was beside him also came over.

Yasha glanced at the two, and said with some concern: "The black mamba doesn't like the humid environment by the spring at the bottom of the valley. They usually live in more open savannahs or dry bushes."

"Is it because there are often water-drinking animals here, which attract them to prey?" Fu Xiaofeng, who came back with a water bottle, followed up.

Yasha shook his head and said: "This is even more wrong. You know, although the black mamba snake is very poisonous and powerful, its staple food is mice, lizards and birds. Animals that come to the spring to drink water It is not interested, and it is not without natural enemies. It is easy to meet mongooses or vultures by the spring. I also find it strange that black mambas rarely attack humans so actively, not to mention that we all have With the snake repellent powder made by our Eku tribe, under such circumstances, it would have already escaped. Besides, we didn’t mess with it just now, we just stood still, why this snake..."

When Yasha said this, everyone felt strange. Ouyang Kai lowered his head and looked at the snake's body again. Suddenly, his heart moved, and he searched the grass for the snake's head severed by Luo Hong.Soon, on the edge of a low bush, he found the snake head that had made no sound. He picked it up and observed it carefully.
