The jaguar under the aura recovery

Chapter 90 Turtle
It was noon.

But the cloudy weather didn't get any better but became darker.

Above an empty plain.

Xu Zhiwu, Zhao Hu and others successfully set up the tent, but their bodies were already wet by the rain.

This simple small tent was assembled by them, and a small fire was raised in the center of the tent.

Several people were topless, drying their clothes.

In this humid and gloomy weather, the slight warmth brought by a flame can only barely dispel the surrounding cold.

Xu Zhiwu took out two bottles of wine from the backpack behind him, and opened them under the surprised eyes of others.

"No, Captain, you really brought it?" Li Xiang was a little surprised.

"What are you afraid of? It's not when I was in the army. If I can't stand the bird spirit, I wouldn't come to be a mercenary."

Xu Zhiwu sat down on the ground carelessly.

"Would you like a drink?"

"it is good!"

"I come!"

Huang Tian also made a sound, it was obvious that he couldn't hurry in this kind of weather, if he didn't rest at this time, when would he rest.

"What about you?" Xu Zhiwu looked at Chen Moyan, another machine gunner in the team.

"Ok!"

The two bottles of wine were quickly divided among the five people, and the turbid wine entered the throat, and a warm current flowed to the whole body, and the chill left by the cold rain on the body before was relieved.

"Damn it, I don't know where to find that dog in this horrible weather! Forget it, I'll sleep and wake up first!"

Xu Zhiwu wiped his mouth and found a corner to lie down. The others were not familiar with each other. After Xu Zhiwu was absent, the atmosphere became silent.

……

Gu Zheng on the tree trunk was awakened by a slight sound of rubbing. He opened his pupils and his expression changed.

On the treetop not far away, a Viper with the spearhead appeared. It was only about one meter in size, and its whole body was dark brown.

It obviously also found Gu Zheng, its mouth opened wide, exposing its sharp fangs and neighing.

Gu Zheng glanced at the ground, and suddenly found that the torrential rain for several hours had actually caused the water level of the lake to rise, and the grass he had stayed on the shore before had been covered by the lake.

Most of the creatures of pit vipers are semi-arboreal, and it is not surprising to climb trees.

Although this ancient tree is thick and strong, Gu Zheng has no intention of being neighbors with the other party.

The distance between the two is no more than five or six meters.

Gu Zheng stood up with a vigilant expression.

When felines are prepared, snake creatures are basically unable to attack.

But also be careful, if one is bitten accidentally, the venom of the viper will be injected into the body of the cat, and even if it does not die, the skin will peel off.

Gu Zheng met some snake catchers before, and learned from them that the smaller a snake is, the more flexible its movements are, and the more poisonous it is.

Therefore, this spearhead viper is not big in size, but it is even more dangerous.

As Gu Zheng approached, the spearhead viper obviously became vigilant. Snakes have extremely weak eyesight, and hunting depends entirely on infrared heat.

In this heavy rain weather, its hunting ability is greatly reduced.

Without giving the opponent time to prepare, Gu Zheng leaped forward and slammed his claws into the air.

puff.

It sounded like a sharp knife cutting into flesh, without any resistance.

The headless corpse of this lancehead viper twisted twice on the tree trunk and fell off the tree trunk, leaving only the head of the snake that opened and closed in place.

Gu Zheng was a little dazed, raised his right paw, and the dagger-like claw shot out from the flesh pad. The black mist that wrapped around it before disappeared at some point, and the sharpness of the claw was obviously stronger than before.

If it was barely comparable to a dagger before, now his claws are as sharp as a sharp knife.

Gu Zheng didn't know whether this mutation was good or bad, but if it could improve his strength, he didn't care about it so much.

While Gu Zheng was thinking, Xiao BuDian woke up, walked to Gu Zheng's side, looked at the snake head in front of him, his hair stood on end.

The head of the snake that lost its body was completely dead soon, and was blown off the trunk as a gust of wind blew motionless.

Gu Zheng stood on the branch and walked around, staring at the lake hundreds of meters away, the fog seemed to dissipate a little bit, and the range of visibility increased.

The water level rose rapidly, and according to Gu Zheng's observation, the original lake water had expanded outward by at least ten meters, and the grass he had stayed in before was only slightly exposed in the lake water.

The turbulent lake surged from time to time, and more than a dozen black caiman crocodiles swam up from the shallow waters, including the five-meter-long crocodile.

Although crocodiles are not as united as some groups of creatures, they will not easily fight among themselves.

Gu Zheng even saw a few small crocodiles crawling over the big crocodile, but the crocodile didn't even move.

There was a thunderous explosion like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, piercing through the eardrums of the living beings, Gu Zheng felt that his ears were numb, and suddenly he couldn't hear anything.

This flash of lightning was extremely sudden, and the sound was even louder. All the voices in the entire rainforest were suppressed by the roar of thunder for a while.

There was a vastness between the sky and the earth, and the sight was as bright as day, and nothing could be seen except a piece of white snow.

It took quite a while before Gu Zheng regained his sense of sight and hearing.

There was a trace of fear reflected in the pupils, the lightning bolt didn't know how thick it was, and it actually directly struck the turbulent and tumbling lake.

In just a split second, a layer of fish and shrimp slowly emerged on the original lake surface, among which there were many big fish over one meter long, caimans two or three meters long, and weirdly shaped creatures with scales that Gu Zheng couldn't name.

These creatures in the water were all electrocuted to death the moment the lightning struck the lake, and they had no ability to resist.

The individual strength of creatures is vulnerable to nature.

There was a roaring roar from a giant underwater beast, which passed through the lake to the outside world. The sound fluctuated non-stop. I don't know how many large underwater creatures were roaring and roaring. Obviously, they were severely electrocuted.

Er Gouzi was awakened from his sleep by the thunder and roar, thinking that there was a giant predator haunting him.

Standing up in a panic, the dog raised its head but hit a tree trunk beside it, and fell headlong.

Its standing position is not high, but it is also six or seven meters.

With a bang, the ground was soaked by the rain and became soft, and a mud pit was directly smashed out under Ergou's weight and inertia.

The little boy who was originally in fear was stunned by Ergou's series of operations, and even forgot to be afraid.

Ergou, who fell from such a height, had no injuries other than his body being stained with mud. The mud was quickly washed away under the cleaning of the heavy rain.

He climbed up the tree again with his wet fur.

"Aw...Wow!"

A clear dog bark reached Gu Zheng's ears, and he turned his head to follow Ergou's gaze.

The lake water spreads towards the mangrove forest from a distance, some small underwater creatures were pushed to the shore by the wind and waves, and a turtle was pushed to the shore by the waves and was struggling to climb into the lake.

The South American side-necked turtle is the largest freshwater turtle in the world.

The size of this tortoise is not small. It is about one meter from head to tail, and its shape is like a millstone. Side-necked turtles generally appear in deeper waters.

Gu Zheng didn't think deeply.

The side-necked turtle is one of the top prey in the diet for the jaguar, the king of the rainforest.
