Chapter 144: The Python Disaster

In the central area of ​​Mangshan Forest Park, there are three peaks with an altitude of more than 1,000 meters. The three peaks are located close to each other, forming a valley plain in the middle.

Before the end of the world, a river passed through the valley plain, forming a small lake in the valley plain, but now the small lake has disappeared.

The whole plain is filled with densely packed, occasionally wriggling pythons, some large and some small, the small ones are only a few meters long, the large ones are dozens of meters long, and the diameter is as big as a bucket, far exceeding the world's largest python before the end of the world, and much larger than the Titanoboa that died 58 million years ago.

Gu Ming and his friends climbed to a peak and looked down, and this is the scene.

I feel a little dizzy, and goose bumps all over my body are back. As mentioned before, Gu Ming is most afraid of snakes, not to mention the pythons in the valley plain that have grown dozens of times larger.

A closer look revealed that those pythons were not the most precious endangered animal in Mangshan Forest Park - the Mangshan iron-headed snake. They were just snakes that were only two meters long before the end of the world, and now they have grown so much as if they had been injected with hormones.

Gu Ming also saw a kind of red orchid growing on the cliffs opposite. Damn, giant pythons and red orchids. Gu Ming thought of the plot in the movie Anaconda. Is this fantasy shining into reality?

Is it the blood orchid in the movie? The blood orchid in the movie can lift a substance that can greatly extend human life and make people young forever.

If it is really that kind of blood orchid, if others know about it, Gu Ming is sure that the dignitaries of all countries in the world will go crazy.

No matter how wise and powerful the emperors in ancient times were, they would do anything to achieve their wish of immortality, not to mention the rulers of modern times.

Even if we are in the doomsday era now, the rulers of various countries will do whatever it takes to get the blood orchid.

Of course, the prerequisite is that the orchid on the cliff opposite is a blood orchid.

Gu Ming plans to pick some and bring them back to Gu Ke for research to see if they have the same medicinal effects as the blood orchid in the movie.

Taking out the meteorite radar, you can see that the red dot displayed on it is on the plain below. Gu Ming looks at the dense group of snakes and guesses that the meteorite should be under the body of the snakes, and the meteorite is covered by them.

Gu Ming guesses that the meteorite should be the biggest reason why the Mangshan iron-headed snake has become so big. Of course, it is also possible that the orchids on the cliffs have mutated under the influence of meteorite radiation and have the effects of blood orchids in the movie, and those snakes have become like this because they ate those orchids. Unfortunately, these are all Gu Ming's guesses, and no one knows what the real situation is.

The big pythons below are not easy to mess with at first glance. They are highly venomous snakes before the end of the world.

Now there are dense black snake scales on their bodies, and each large one is as big as a human head. Under the radiation of the meteorite, Gu Ming does not think that these scales are just beautiful. He doubts whether his laser knife can cut those scales.

The distance of the chariot was too far, and Gu Xiao, Wangcai, and Gu Ming did not want them to die. There were hundreds of big snakes and countless small snakes below. If Gu Ming and the other three went down, they might be drowned by the snakes in an instant, and there would be nothing left.

Gu Ming decided to steal the flowers first, and not to provoke the snakes below.

It didn't take long to detour to the opposite mountain, but they encountered some mutant beasts on the way, but they were all solved by Gu Xiao.

Soon Gu Ming and his team reached the top of the opposite mountain. The top of the mountain was a relatively gentle slope, and the ground was covered with snow.

Walking to the edge of the cliff and looking down, the height was more than 400 meters. There were many protruding parts on the cliffs that were covered with red orchids, and at the bottom were densely packed pythons.

How to pick the flowers without attracting the attention of the pythons? Gu Ming soon thought of a way. There were small items he had prepared in the system space. Those things were exchanged from the system store in order to go out to look for meteorites.

There is a thing called invisible cloak, which can help people hide their figures completely and make others invisible to the naked eye. I just don’t know whether the big pythons are very alert or not, and whether the orchids are important to them. Gu Ming observed them on the top of the mountain again, but still couldn’t see whether they cared about the orchids.

Forget it, leave them alone, Gu Ming plans to take action to steal the flowers.

First put on the invisible cloak, then take out the rope from the system space, tie one end to himself, and let Gu Xiao hold the other end. It’s better to tie it to the tree than to let Gu Xiao hold it. With his strength, there is no problem at all.

Fortunately, I don’t have acrophobia, otherwise it would be very scary to hang down from such a high place with a rope.

Gu Ming pulled the rope with both hands and walked down the cliff step by step. The orchid closest to him was still more than ten meters away. He slowly approached and soon arrived at the orchid.

The orchid looked very bright from a close distance, and the red color gave people a bloody color. Gu Ming looked at the group of pythons below that were motionless, and quickly picked the orchid and put it into the system space. Things put into the system space will always remain in the state when they were put in, so Gu Ming was not worried about the orchid rotting.

Gu Ming picked the orchids nearby, and then let Gu Xiao hang him down more than ten meters. These orchids grew a little here and a little there, and were everywhere on the cliff, but they were not concentrated together.

Just as Gu Ming picked the orchid easily again, the largest python in the group of pythons below raised its head at some point and faced Gu Ming's position, as if it could see Gu Ming.

Before Gu Ming could react, Gu Xiao saw the abnormality of the python below, and he quickly pulled up the rope.

The rope dragged him up, and Gu Ming saw that the pythons below all began to wriggle. He knew it was bad, and in order to increase the speed of ascent, he kicked his feet on the cliff.

"Roar——"

The sound of the largest python was like the roar of a beast, a bit like the roar of a tiger.

Hearing the call of the king of their tribe, all the pythons moved, and they rolled together like a ladder to heaven, growing densely upward. Gu Ming felt a little nauseous when he saw it from above. This was an instinctive psychological discomfort. He was most afraid of snakes.

Fortunately, Gu Xiao's reaction speed was fast. Gu Ming had already reached the top of the cliff when the snakes just reached the middle of the cliff.

While escaping, Gu Ming saw the meteorite hidden under the snakes, a meteorite of the same size as the last time he got.

There was no chance to get the meteorite this time, so we had to do it next time. Gu Ming ran quickly in the forest, and the snakes behind him rushed towards the direction of Gu Ming and his team's escape like a flood.

Looking down from the sky, you can clearly see that the trees fell forward quickly like dominoes.

The big and small mutant beasts in the forest that blocked the python group were also running for their lives. The overlords in Mangshan Forest Park were the pythons. No mutant beast dared to provoke them, just like the wild boars that Gu Ming and his team met before were also driven out of the center by the pythons. Then they met Gu Ming and his team and wanted to vent their anger, but who knew that they kicked the iron plate and lost their lives. This is also fate.

It was a bit aggrieved. Being driven out by the pythons like chasing dogs, Gu Ming thought that when they chased to the distance where the chariot could fire, he would let Pangu show them a little color.

I just don't know why they stopped chasing halfway and went back again. It was a bit anticlimactic. Could it be that they were worried about the meteorite or the orchids, Gu Ming thought to himself.

First they fought with a group of wild boars, and then they were chased by a group of pythons. They returned to the chariot. Gu Ming felt a little tired and decided to take a break and think of how to get the meteorite.
