Chapter 897 African Boomslang

The sound is very subtle.
If the environment wasn't so quiet that one could even feel the heartbeat, perhaps even Bifang would have ignored it, and the audience in front of the screen would have heard nothing.
Bifang became alert and subconsciously took a step back.
At this moment, the hissing sound became more intense, and a few viewers began to react, and Cheetah Harley was so angry that his fur exploded!
The one with the biggest reaction was undoubtedly Jerry, the Gambian rat!
But it's too late.
Just as the sound became more intense and Bifang retreated, diagonally behind him, in a place illuminated by the torch, a rock that was completely integrated with the yellow-brown stone wall suddenly trembled.
The drone quickly captured the dynamic object, and then, in the shocked eyes of everyone, the rock separated layer by layer like the peel of an apple, bounced up from the center, and attacked the back of Bifang's neck!
snake!
A venomous snake with extremely good camouflage!
It happened so fast that no one could react in time.
The first failure of Bifang’s live broadcast?
What snake?
Is there a fatal risk?
All kinds of thoughts popped up in the audience's minds like a storm, and perhaps even the audience themselves couldn't sort them out, but they stopped abruptly in the next moment.
The flames dragged a band of light in the darkness, dazzling, bright and colorful.
Bifang's movements were much faster than that of the dormant poisonous snake. He turned around very swiftly, and amidst the misty shadows, his right palm stabbed out like lightning, transforming into a sharp scalpel, and accurately intercepted the attacking poisonous snake from the neck!
The powerful knuckles were buckled at the same time like a mechanical lock, and the four parallel fingers grasped the most vulnerable snake neck. The remaining thumb was firmly embedded in the venomous snake's jaw, almost crushing its head!
The venomous snake, whose head was pinched by the fingers, twisted wildly in pain, and its lower body automatically wrapped around the upper arm, coiling and contracting.
Almost all the netizens who watched the whole process couldn't help but cheer loudly.
The latecomer arrives first!
No, it seems to be the first one?
The images switch too quickly, and the frame rate exceeds the capture limit of most viewers, which inevitably makes people feel confused.
But no matter how many doubts there are, they are of no importance in front of the poisonous snake caught with bare hands.
Just one word – awesome!
The originally thrilling death situation disappeared in an instant. If the long snake in Bifang's hand had not been still struggling, the audience might have thought it was an illusion caused by staying up late to watch the live broadcast.
Facing the world, Jerry was frightened to the point of stiffness, and his stiff body fell to the ground. It took him a long while to come to his senses, and he climbed up by grabbing his trouser legs.
Harley was also frightened by the sudden appearance of the poisonous snake in front of him. He almost retreated to the entrance of the cave. Only after the poisonous snake was firmly caught did he dare to step forward and observe it carefully.
Bifang's back was covered in cold sweat, and he was far from being as calm as everyone had imagined.
Before, everything happened in the blink of an eye.
The beast's instincts and the shark's electroreception, which is weakened by 99% on land, allow the outline of the snake's shape to appear in Bifang's brain as soon as it moves its muscles.
With the help of dynamic vision and extrasensory nerves, the incredible scene before our eyes was created.
Even my sweat glands didn't react. I was out of danger at this moment, but later I realized that sweat was pouring out of my lower back as if a floodgate had been opened.
"call."
Bifang let out a long sigh. His head felt swollen, but he was young after all, so the pain soon eased.
After recovering, he looked intently at the "trophy" in his hand.
Under the tremendous pinching force, the snake's snout was forced to open, revealing its slender fangs. Combined with its rough and colorful body, it looked extremely ferocious. One could tell it was a highly venomous snake just by its appearance.
The audience was also terrified.
It was so thrilling. No wonder Bifang was always so serious when dealing with poisonous snakes. He rarely killed them directly, but mostly used long tools.
If I had really been bitten by a snake just now, looking at the situation, living a little longer would have been disrespectful to the snake venom.
Bringing the torch closer, Bifang looked at it more carefully.
The snake's body was very long and extremely slender in proportion. Even though it was very thin, it was almost completely wrapped around my forearm.
[Very long snake]
[Fuck, it’s obviously not thin, but it’s too long. It feels weird.]
[Looks too scary]
[Every time I see Bifang say it's very dangerous, plus all the operations, I'm almost having a psychological trauma against snakes]
[I'm fine. I already had psychological trauma, but it's only deepened now (dog head)]
The body proportions of snakes are not uniform. Some are short and fat, some are slender, some are long and thick, some have big heads and thin bodies, or vice versa, small heads and thick bodies. However, the length and thickness ratio we see before us is relatively rare.
Fortunately, Bifang is now almost an encyclopedia of the biological world. As long as it is not an unknown creature, you can basically find the corresponding species in your mind.
In the dim firelight, Bifang quickly came to a conclusion based on the creature's size, color, appearance, and excellent camouflage.
"It's an African boomslang. No wonder I didn't even notice it. These mimicry creatures are really hard to guard against."
Thinking of this, Bifang's mood, which had calmed down a little, began to fluctuate again, but he did not forget to introduce himself to the audience.
"The boomslang is one of the most famous poisonous snakes in Africa. After being bitten by it, the blood will not coagulate, and bleeding will occur from all seven orifices of the body. The internal organs will also bleed profusely. The death process is slow and painful. Only anti-venom serum can save the victim's life. It ranks ninth on Nigel Marvin's list of the top ten deadly snakes in South Africa."
"If you don't pay attention to Nigel Marvin, you may not have heard of him. He is also an international celebrity host and a famous nature conservation and wildlife expert. He has a very famous show called Prehistoric Park."
"The show is about an explorer played by Marvin who travels back to prehistoric times and captures various creatures and brings them to the park. It's a very old show. I don't know if you have seen it. It was filmed in the 2000s."
[Fuck, I seem to have an impression]
[Damn, why does it feel so familiar?]
【Childhood memories belong to】
[I remember watching it on a pay channel when I was a kid]
[It seems that the cages are made of wooden stakes]
“So, although it is not a very rigorous ranking, it still has certain reference value. ”
Bifang smiled and held down Harley who had opened his mouth and wanted to bite him.
He pulled the long snake in his hand apart and brought it close to the stone wall. The colors of the two were almost exactly the same, especially the spots on the snake's body, which were so lifelike that when it was coiled up it looked like a piece of rock!
"African tree snakes come in many colors, including bright green, brown, and black. Some are the same color all over their bodies, while others have spots, patches, or stripes. Therefore, they are very good at camouflage, just like camouflage, and can blend well with the surrounding environment."
"With such camouflage, if we don't observe carefully, we won't be able to spot them even if we pass by them."
"Because they are quite confident in their camouflage, African boomslangs often use camouflage and 'ambush tactics' to catch prey."
"After they find an ambush site, they quietly hide there, looking for opportunities to attack at any time. Generally, the success rate of an ambush is very high."
The audience shuddered at the sight of the venomous snake, which was exactly the same color as the rock.
They are so similar and well camouflaged, and the cave environment is dark and the vision is blurry, it would be strange if they could be discovered.
Without moving, it's just a stone!
"Poisonous snakes rarely attack animals they cannot eat. We must have accidentally stepped into its territory, and it even made a sound to warn us, a hissing sound. As a result, I subconsciously took a step back, but I got closer, which aroused its ferocity."
Snakes do not make sounds by spitting out their tongues. There is a small hole in their mouths. When the air in the snake's lungs is exhaled quickly through this small hole, a "hissing" sound is made. The faster the exhaled airflow, the louder the sound.
Snakes make this sound when they feel threatened.
Perhaps the tree snake was dozing off when Bifang came in, and by the time it discovered the intruder in its territory, it was already too late. Bifang was about to move away, but after the tree snake issued a warning, Bifang subconsciously thought that danger was ahead and chose to retreat.
"If it were in the wizarding world, African tree snake skin would be one of the key ingredients for making Polyjuice Potion. Maybe I could buy a good ingredient, but for a Muggle like me, this tree snake is useless except for filling my stomach."
Bifang made a joke.
