Indiana Jones

Chapter 42 The Dangerous Jungle (02)

This is not the first time they have seen a python. They have seen such a big python several times after entering the jungle, but this is the first time they have had a close encounter. This is not the night when they first entered the jungle and crawled slowly under their trees. That one, but a really fast-moving giant python that comes and goes like the wind. After being hit by a bullet, its attention was completely shifted from Ma Zhong to other people, and it immediately rushed to Luo, who was the most powerful. De, the huge body almost reached Rhodes in one fell swoop. Obviously Rhodes didn't expect it to be so fast, so he quickly jumped away. Although he avoided the attack of the snake head, he was directly knocked out. The huge The snake twisted its body on the spot and aimed at another American soldier who was about to flee, and the soldier was swallowed by the python from the chest up. With a flick of the snake's head, his waist hit the side heavily. On the trunk of the tree, there was a crisp sound of bone breaking...

All this happened in an instant, and Li Siming and Agui only had time to fire two shots...

When Rhodes saw his soldiers being bitten, he immediately went mad, got up and continued to sweep wildly with his guns. The bullets penetrated into the flesh of the python that was close at hand, and the painful python rolled on the spot, and the American soldiers in its mouth were thrown out. The huge body swept across the ground like a steamroller, and several nearby small trees with the diameter of a bowl were directly broken...

The python turned around and was about to rush towards Rhodes, but Rhodes was already walking back and forth between the gaps in the giant tree with a gun in his hand, using the narrow space to avoid the python's attack, the python really couldn't help him for a while, just wanted to kill such a Big boa constrictors are not so easy...

Soon after, people came back one after another. When they saw this situation, they shot without saying a word. Some even threw out grenades. The boa constrictor was beaten bloody. It twisted its body and crazily crawled into the jungle, but it didn’t run away. It was blown back by several grenades, and at this moment, there was a loud noise, and a huge blood hole suddenly exploded on the python's body, almost breaking two-thirds of its body...

Rhode looked back only to find that the bazooka in a soldier's hand was still smoking...

The boa constrictor twitched for a long time before it finally stopped moving... Everyone was relieved. After a great battle, almost all the nearby bushes and weeds were razed to the ground, and the blood and minced meat of the boa constrictor were everywhere. With a smell of gunpowder smoke mixed with blood, the American soldier who was thrown out by the boa constrictor was no longer able to die, with multiple fractures on his body, and his chest was pierced by a broken branch. His injuries were terrible...

They found the missing Delgo at the blown wound on the python's abdomen. His body was severely deformed and his limbs were twisted together. He could see the pain of death. No wonder he disappeared without a sound. It turned out that he was eaten by the python. , in such a huge canopy, the boa constrictor can indeed come and go without a trace.

After careful observation, they found that the python was bigger than they expected, with a length of nearly nine meters. Agui said it was a very rare python, a bit like the legendary black-eyed golden-scaled python, but this python had no eyes. The surrounding black scales have more lines composed of many dark red scales, which looks very strange.

Rhodes didn't quite understand Agui's words. After thinking for a long time, Agui asked Liang Rong to explain to him that it was a kind of highly poisonous golden boa constrictor. Rhodes finally understood what it meant, but he still couldn't understand why the python was poisonous. Ah Gui only heard about it, so he couldn't go into it further.

In this way, they lost two people and a large amount of weapons and ammunition in less than an hour of getting up early. The only rocket was consumed, and the ammunition of Rhodes' Thomson submachine gun was almost exhausted. It was so sudden, it was unacceptable, and it even felt extremely unreal, but during this period, Si Xuanyi and Liang Rong accidentally discovered the mark left by James, which was less than [-] miles away from their campsite. on a big tree.

According to the number of marks and the direction they were guided to, they were already very close to their destination. It is estimated that they would be able to reach the crash site in two to three days, but after what happened this morning, almost everyone was not optimistic. Whether they find the crashed transport plane is not up to them, but depends on what they encounter in this jungle.

"If this goes on, our ammunition will not be able to last for two or three days." Rhodes said worriedly.

"That's why we have to move forward. At least we can concentrate on facing this jungle. Without RB people, it is more likely to survive." Si Xuanyi watched Rhodes' men bury the two corpses, "In this The only difference between living and dying in this jungle is being able to decide where you should go."

After redistributing the ammunition, Rhode found that their condition was not much better than Si Xuanyi and the others. Of course, he was not kind enough to distribute his ammunition to Si Xuanyi and the others. Although their number was reduced, they only allocated the ammunition to his team. other people.

Although they experienced a hard battle early in the morning, it was still early, and it was time for them to go on the road. Rhodes retreated after confirming the mark, and Agui and the others were still leading the way. In this forest, he finally understood Considering the importance of Agui, this seemingly unintelligent or even stupid aborigine does have an extraordinary ability to survive in the jungle, relying on him can avoid a lot of trouble.

Rhodes' map shows that they have completely entered the core area of ​​this jungle, but according to their current progress, it will take at least more than a week to cross the hinterland of this jungle, and if according to Si Xuanyi's vision It would take them at least half a month or even longer to walk through the jungle and return to the gathering place for the convenience. Only then did they realize that the estimated time was too optimistic.

At noon that day, they appeared in a rolling hilly area. The difference from the places they had passed before was that the trees here were not dense. It's hard to see.

As the trees dwindled, they were dizzy under the scorching sun, and there was a smell of something rotting in the air.

"This is a place where miasma frequently appears." Agui wiped a handful of withered yellow leaves and said worriedly, "We shouldn't come here."

"Find the next marker as soon as possible." Rhodes also noticed that something was wrong here, and said a little annoyed.

"What's that?" Li Siming pointed to something under a tree in the distance.

"It seems..." Si Xuanyi took a look and frowned, but he was not sure.

After finding out what was going on, Rhodes raised his binoculars to take a look, and then his body trembled, and his face immediately turned black: "It's... RB devils, a large group..."
