Chapter 70 The Big Guy Makes His Appearance

"Big guy!?"

Liu Sisi blinked her big eyes, looking very excited…

"Brother Feng, are you saying there will be even bigger crocodiles coming?"

Ye Feng stared at the sunlight filtering through the leaves, chuckled softly, and nodded…

"Here's a little-known fact: the larger the crocodile, the more it needs to regulate its body temperature."

The sun is so bright today. Those big guys have no reason not to come out and soak up the sun…

Just wait, I'm sure we'll find the perfect prey.

Upon hearing this, Liu Sisi asked, somewhat puzzled:

"But...why don't we kill this one first, and then wait for the big crocodile to come out?"

"Hmm~"

Ye Feng pouted and shook his head...

"It's too risky. We can't see the whole river from here."

I don't know how many crocodiles are hiding underwater right now.

They may not be considered intelligent animals, but they are certainly not stupid either.

If they see us and we don't come up, wouldn't that be a case of penny-wise and pound-foolish?

I don't want to do anything that would alert the enemy.

Our task now is to find a vantage point with a wide field of view that is also convenient for shooting.

And then... wait!

As soon as she finished speaking, Qi Xiaoyan pointed to the mangrove forest behind the shallows…

How is it there?

Ye Feng chuckled and nodded...

"That's exactly what I was thinking... Let's go!"

Having said that, the two of them tiptoed slowly forward...

Liu Sisi and the other two wanted to follow, but Ye Feng stopped them...

The only reason we called them was because the journey was long, and we were worried we wouldn't be able to carry the crocodile after killing it...

Soon, the two found their way to the mangrove forest…

Ye Feng observed for a while and finally found two suitable shooting positions, then quietly climbed up.

At this moment, the two were positioned in a triangular formation, about ten meters apart, and about twenty meters away from the shallows below.

Qi Xiaoyan could observe the upstream area, while Ye Feng had an unobstructed view of the downstream area.

The two carefully observed the crocodile while climbing the tree, and fortunately, they were both good at climbing trees and did not arouse the crocodile's suspicion.

And so, the two of them, half-squatting and half-lying, in a very abstract and extremely uncomfortable posture, waited on the tree trunk...

At first, the two could hold on, but as time went on…

More than an hour has passed, and not only has the big crocodile not appeared, but even the crocodile sunbathing below has opened its eyes...

It seems they've already had a good sleep...

Qi Xiaoyan seemed to be in a bad state; she kept twisting her body, as if she couldn't take it anymore.

She already had an injury, and then she was bitten by mosquitoes all around her...

With this restless posture, I nearly fell off the tree several times...

Ye Feng noticed something was wrong with her... so he gestured repeatedly, indicating for her to leave...

But Qi Xiaoyan anxiously pointed to the crocodile below, as if she wanted to fire an arrow...

Ye Feng glanced to the side and realized that the crocodile had already gotten up and was slowly walking towards the river...

However, Ye Feng's expression remained resolute as he continued to shake his head at Qi Xiaoyan...

Because in the past hour or so, he had spotted at least three crocodiles in the river.

Therefore, I firmly believe that given today's weather, there's no reason for these crocodiles not to come ashore.

In the blink of an eye, another twenty minutes had passed...

Ye Feng's ribs ached from the tree branch under his arm, but he dared not break it, for fear of making a sound and alerting the enemy.

Qi Xiaoyan couldn't take it anymore; he had been bitten by mosquitoes more than a dozen times on his arm.

She couldn't understand Ye Feng's thoughts at all, and didn't know what made Ye Feng so certain that a big crocodile would definitely come.

If it were me, I'd kill one first, at least then it wouldn't be a wasted trip.

But just as she was about to climb down the tree, she noticed a sudden movement in the river…

She raised an eyebrow and glanced around. Suddenly, a crocodile's head popped out of the water, then swaggered to the middle of the shallows and lay down...

Judging from its size, it is at least 3.5 meters tall. It's not very big, but it's definitely an adult...

Qi Xiaoyan immediately climbed back to her position and excitedly waved to Ye Feng, signaling whether she could fire...

Ye Feng, however, remained frowning and shook his head repeatedly…

Clearly, he was not satisfied with the size of the prey…

What he wanted was a crocodile at least 4.5 meters long…

For example, on the first day I arrived here, there were those man-eating black caimans.

"Come quickly, come quickly..."

Ye Feng kept repeating it to himself...

And just like that, another twenty minutes passed...

During this time, three more crocodiles came ashore in the shallows, but he still didn't make a move...

Around 2 PM, unusual activity was observed on the water surface again…

A huge black crocodile head slowly emerged from the water, its yellowed, sharp teeth making it easy to tell...

This black caiman is quite old…

It slowly walked onto the shallows, constantly emitting a deep and unique roar...

The sound was somewhat similar to the roar of a lion or tiger, but much longer and deeper…

As soon as the sound was heard, all the other crocodiles that were sunbathing opened their eyes.

They quickly got up and moved towards the edge, their panic was palpable...

In the animal kingdom, determining strength is simple: size reigns supreme.

And so it lay down in the middle of the shallows, enjoying the best spot for sunbathing.

At that moment, Ye Feng's eyes widened instantly...

This crocodile was clearly larger than the others; he made a quick estimate…

It is at least... 4.8 meters long...

"Hehe, I've finally waited for you..."

Ye Feng grinned and murmured softly…

Meanwhile, Qi Xiaoyan was already dancing with excitement, her excitement palpable.

She hadn't expected Ye Feng's judgment to be so accurate; he had actually caught this big guy...

Ye Feng slowly stood up from the treetop, nodded to her, indicating that he could shoot...

They had discussed it beforehand, each taking one bow, since the compound bow was more powerful, so Ye Feng would take the larger one.

Qi Xiaoyan then randomly picked a small one...

After exchanging signs, the two drew back their bows, placed their feet on tree branches, leaned against the trunk, and assumed a comfortable stance for exerting force...

The two must shoot their arrows at the same time; otherwise, the noise will scare away the other crocodiles…

They waited for over two hours, just for this one moment. If they missed it, they might get nothing all day…

Ye Feng calculated the wind speed and slowly aimed the arrow at the back of the crocodile's head...

Only here can a fatal blow be delivered...

The two exchanged a glance, and simultaneously began to silently recite...

"5, 4, 3, 2...1!"

"call out!"

The two whooshing sounds merged instantly, but the two arrows flew in different directions...

"cough…"

A crocodile in the shallows let out a low growl, an arrow lodged diagonally in its neck…
