Meow Ba

Chapter 447 The Protagonist
Whoever has the gun is the boss.

Even though the grass surface was slippery and there was a danger of falling at any time, a man and a woman could only follow Jack's request. The woman was responsible for wrapping the rope around the tree trunk beside him, and the man wrapped the rope around his waist and went down carefully.

The feet are inconvenient, so I can only use my hands harder.

"Damn!"

"I shouldn't be coveting that fifty thousand dollars!"

Bill Johnson is the name of the man descending, he is the captain of the Bloody Mary and the only man willing to go to the Amazon forest during the rainy season.

Half a month ago, this group of adventurers found him and offered him a high price of [-] US dollars, and he was moved.

With that money, he'd be able to fix up the Bloody Mary and maybe replace it with a better engine.

But he didn't expect that this voyage would be the Bloody Mary's last in the Amazon, and more likely his own.

"Bill, come on!"

There was cheering overhead. It was Sam, the girl who was part of the expedition that had hired Bill.

She is just silly, sweet and upright, and now she is just a pawn in the hands of the expedition leader, Dr. Jack Byron.

"It's pathetic."

"Even if you get the blood orchid, you can't take it back with you."

"because……"

Lao Cha sat firmly on the tree trunk with a crooked neck, watching the injured man named Bill exclaim - he had already moved to the vicinity of Bloodland, but the sudden flash of lightning illuminated the deep pit under the cliff.

Hundreds of boa constrictors as thick as buckets twisted and rolled in the water, stirring up waves like waves.

These are the common forest vipers of the Amazon, which are the largest snakes in the world.

But their size has far surpassed the largest snake ever discovered by humans, and even compared with the Titanoboa that can prey on dinosaurs, they are only slightly inferior-living under the blood orchid all the year round, and the blood orchid petals after blooming every year They will all fall into the deep pit, keeping these forest vipers alive for a long, long time.

So long that no one or anything in the Amazon jungle can pose a threat to them.

Correspondingly, these giant pythons also provided protection for Xuelan.

Old Tea doesn't know if plants are also intelligent, but whenever humans or animals want to pick blood orchids, not only the petals, but also the leaves.

The giant pythons will meander up the cliffs and kill those who touch them.

This is why the Alimu tribe has to pay the price of blood every time they pick blood orchids.

Even though the Alimu tribe has lived in the Amazon jungle for an unknown number of years, they have no chance of winning in the face of a giant python that can be called a monster.

"Whoa~"

As soon as Lao Cha finished speaking, Bill's palm touched the blood orchid. He squeezed it tightly and pulled it hard, and immediately a blood orchid bud that had just bloomed was torn off.

"Pull me up!"

"I picked blood orchids!"

Bill, who picked the blood orchids, immediately shouted that he must go up immediately.

Long-term voyages on the Amazon made him understand that the calmer the water surface, the more violent the undercurrent hides.

But now, in the deep pit under his suspended feet, the snake ball that was still tumbling violently just now had disappeared, and the water splashes full of waves suddenly calmed down.

There is a great fear lurking in it.

It's just that the two people above the cliff can't see such a scene.

"Pull you up immediately!"

"The crunch~"

There was a sound of friction between the rope and the slippery grass blades, and the rope rose little by little. The torrential rain wet Bill's clothes, covering his eyes, so that he could only vaguely see the light of the torch above.

But when his raised palm was about thirty centimeters away from the upper arm of the cliff, the upward trend of the rope stopped suddenly.

"what happened?"

"Pull me up!"

"You throw the blood orchid up first!"

Jack's head pokes out from the edge of the cliff, and he even has time to clean his glasses.

It's just that his words don't match his gentle movements.

"The validity period of the blood orchid extract is very short, I must put the blood orchid in the incubator as soon as possible."

"Damn it, Jack, you can't do this."

The silence of the underground pit drove Bill crazy, and the longer the silence, the more violent the eruption would be.

He had no idea what was going to happen next.

Is it the same as the hunted down along the way, or more dangerous.

"Pull me up first, or I will lose Xuelan!"

Taking a deep breath, resisting the pain, Bill stretched out his arms and pinched the blood orchid flower between his fingertips.

As long as he gently opened his index finger and thumb, the blood orchid flower in his hand would fall into the deep pit below in the rain like countless flowers before, and become the nourishment for the giant pythons to bathe.

But at the same time, losing Bloodland will also make Jack cut the rope with a high probability and lose his own life.

He is betting, he can only bet.

"All right."

There was silence for a while, the desire for Bloodland and the urgency of time made Jack choose to compromise.

The flowering period of the blood orchid is very short, only a few days. If you don’t pick the blood orchid this time, you will have to wait 20 years for the next one.

The time was too long for Jack to wait.

"Crackling ~"

The friction sounded again, and soon Bill was pulled up the cliff.

Before he could stand still, Jack snatched Bloodland from his hand.

"Hahahahaha, what a beautiful flower..."

Putting Bloodland in front of him, Jack admired and laughed wildly. He saw his future and countless money...

It's just that all this can only be left in the imagination.

"what!"

The incomparably sharp female voice pierced the rain curtain—anyone who suddenly appeared in front of a giant python with a head the size of a bathtub that ate the living person standing next to it in one bite would scream like this.

Only Sam saw more.

Because the giant python that had just swallowed Jack turned its eyes to itself, its huge head instantly burst into countless tiny scales, broken bones and blood foam, as if what it just ate was not a living person, But a pack of TNT!

Then, a skinny old Chinese man appeared at the center of the explosion, with a fluent Cockney accent, which was very dignified.

"The blood orchid belongs to me."

"You can go."

The transition between life and death is too fast and exciting.

Without words, Bill picked up the pistol that Jack dropped, and with the support of Sam, he limped holding the torch and walked into the jungle along the way he came.

As for the skinny Chinese old man, he picked up the blood orchid on the ground and put it to his nose.

"It still smells familiar."

"But this time, you will be the one who fails."

From the pit loomed huge shadows thicker than buckets and bathtubs.

"Boom!"

There is a lightning dragon whipping, sending a moment of light.

With this light, Lao Cha has seen it.

It was a wood viper, not like a wood viper, but more like a cobra.

The protruding skin on the neck is like a pair of wings, fluttering back and forth from time to time.
