Chapter 115 Side Quest?
Here, Bifang stepped on the snake's body, cut off the snake's head with the tip of the knife, and carefully picked it up and flew it away, only then did he notice the barrage.
After seeing the screen full of exclamation marks, Bifang was confused.
What's the danger?
He looked around. It was pitch black and quiet. There was nothing there.
Bifang didn't react until someone pointed out that the snake's body was wrapped around his calf.
"Oh, this, I forgot to mention it just now."
Bifang casually took the snake off his calf, then found the snake head that was picked up and placed the hunting knife under the snake's mouth. Almost instantly, the snake head bit the hunting knife!
Bifang pulled out the hunting knife from the snake's kiss that refused to let go, put it under the camera, and moved it closer to the fire. The audience was shocked to find that there were two drops of something like water on the knife.
"This is venom." Bifang explained, "Snakes are different from humans. Their nerve centers are spread all over their bodies, unlike humans. Human nerve centers are in the brain, and they can't move without the head. But after a snake is cut into pieces, it still has nerve consciousness. At this time, there is still venom in its fangs, which is also fatal."
"That's why, when I was cutting the snake's head just now, I didn't touch it with my hands from beginning to end. Even if the snake's head is cut off, it can still survive for ten to dozens of minutes. In cold weather, this time can be extended to three to four hours, until the nerves die."
"There was a very popular news story before. It was about a restaurant employee in Guangdong who killed a Thai king cobra for a customer, cut off its head and put it aside. However, after peeling the snake's head for more than ten minutes, he was bitten on the finger when he was about to throw it into the trash can. He died on the spot from the poison!"
[The fingers shrink subconsciously.]
[Poisoning has already begun]
[Here it comes, here it comes, a collection of Lao Fang’s short stories]
[How much news does Lao Fang check before he sets out every time? I just searched and it really is there. It’s outrageous.]
"Nonsense, do you think I made that up?" Bifang rolled his eyes. This netizen actually didn't trust him!
Cross him out of the next draw!
Throwing the snake corpse into his backpack, Bifang continued on his way.
This is reserve food, and Bifang doesn't plan to eat it before finding a water source.
Along the way, Bifang held a torch and continued to shuttle through the valleys, collecting some flower sticks from time to time and putting them into his backpack. He didn't know whether he would encounter plants suitable for making fire after leaving here.
The valley was unexpectedly long, and Bifang walked for more than an hour before reaching the end. He even caught a pit viper on the way, and this time he killed it by smashing it with a stone.
"There are two middle vipers in one valley. This valley is richer than I thought!" Bifang carried the snake corpse, which was bigger than the previous one.
If there weren't enough geckos in this valley, this food chain wouldn't be able to support itself.
There is probably a direct underground river here!
"I originally thought that it would be good to have some plants, but I didn't expect the harvest to be much bigger than I thought. These two snakes are enough for me to eat for two days."
After stuffing the snake into his backpack again, Bifang looked up at the moon. It had shifted a lot from the direction where it first rose. He estimated the time and it was probably already past eleven o'clock in the evening.
Although it is not so hot now, after traveling for such a long time, Bifang's tongue is so dry that it seems to be cracked, his voice is starting to become hoarse, and he speaks much less.
He swallowed hard, his saliva was as sticky as glue.
[Strange, is there really water here? There aren't even any cacti.]
[There must be, right? There are so many plants.]
[Perhaps there are no cacti because there is too much groundwater]
【That makes sense! 】
After walking for about another half an hour, Bifang changed another torch. Feeling a little tired, he leaned against the rock wall and suddenly felt it was a little slippery.
He withdrew his hand, twisted his fingers, raised the torch and looked at the rock wall beside him.
The entire huge rock was covered with water droplets!
"The water source is nearby!"
Bifang was very sure, otherwise it would be impossible for so many water droplets to condense here. He resisted the urge to lick the rock wall and walked forward quickly.
Many viewers who were about to end the show and go to sleep became excited when they saw this, and planned to find a water source before going to sleep after watching the show.
Just for a while, then go to sleep.
Sure enough, at the next corner, less than ten meters away, a small pool of water appeared in front of everyone!
The pool was not small, with an area of about six square meters, and was surrounded by mountain walls. Bifang stretched out his torch and could see that the pool was very clear, with ripples appearing on the water surface from time to time.
[Ooooh! I found a water source! ]
【There is water! 】
[I took a big gulp of Coke while watching this]
[Drinking Coke doesn’t worry about tooth decay. 】
"It's really living water!" Bifang was very excited.
There is no stream flowing into the surface of this pool of water, yet under the light of the fire, it still looks very clear. This is impossible!
Unless it is connected to groundwater and becomes running water!
Groundwater is undoubtedly the cleanest water source in the wild.
Thinking of this, Bifang lay down beside the pond and filled the kettle with water. But before it was full, he couldn't wait to pick it up and drink it in small sips.
The glue-like saliva was diluted and no longer blocked the dry throat. The clear water flowed down the smoking throat and into the stomach that was cracked like the earth.
Gurgle, gurgle.
This pot of water will clear away all the depressed energy that is blocking your energy, spirit and vitality.
Bifang did not stop and refilled his water twice in succession. He drank nearly a pot and a half of water before wiping his mouth and burping repeatedly.
"Phew, this is so addictive."
"But we still need to drink water in moderation, because when we sweat, we lose a lot of electrolytes in our bodies. If we only drink water at this time without replenishing necessary elements such as salt, we will suffer from water poisoning."
Bifang had never told the audience about this before, because he was afraid that those guys who were taking advantage of the situation would be prepared and would not stack one layer of debuff.
By then, the Quicksand skill won't be so effective.
[Damn, I was wondering why those guys became more and more abnormal the more they drank, so this is the reason!]
[I always thought that Fang Shen was staring at them drinking water because he was greedy, but I didn’t expect there was this reason]
[I like it, hehehe]
[The wilderness is really dangerous. If you don’t know anything, you will die if you jump in! ]
Bifang refilled the kettle with water, then took out a snake carcass from his bag, built a pile of firewood, and prepared to roast and eat it.
Now that we have found a water source, we need to replenish our energy.
He hasn't eaten for a day.
"Small snakes like pit vipers feed on small animals such as mice and lizards, so they have a lot of parasites on their bodies. There are also many small insects that live under the snake's scales. Someone once said that I should peel off the snake's skin."
Bifang used a hunting knife to separate the snake skin from the snake meat, preparing to tear off the entire snake skin.
As a result, as soon as it was torn in half, the audience saw, through the extremely clear lens, small white bugs falling like raindrops, and falling to the ground like granulations, making their skin itchy, as if there were countless small bugs drilling inside!
"Shit! Sparganum!"
Even Bifang almost threw the snake away, and a feeling of physical discomfort spread from his scalp to his heels.
If he was like this, let alone the audience watching the live broadcast, many of whom who were having midnight snacks almost vomited.
Enduring the discomfort, Bifang peeled off the snake skin completely, skewered it on a branch, and roasted it directly.
Stimulated by the high temperature, the sparganum in the snake's body reacted immediately and tried frantically to drill out of the skin and flesh, but were soon burned to death by the high temperature.
"Huh!" Bifang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the sparganum die. He then began to introduce what the parasite was, "That's the sparganum..."
No one noticed.
In the pool of water nearby, the ripples that were originally rippling slightly suddenly became much larger.
There was a flash of fire, and a fish fin with sharp spikes suddenly appeared on the water, but then quickly sank back down.
It seems like it has never appeared.
It was the appearance of the unknown creature that made Bifang stunned for a moment.
The familiar system sound appeared again.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for triggering the side quest: Underground Cave, do you want to accept it? ]
