The stars in the night sky were even more dazzling and brilliant than the fireworks during the Lunar New Year.
Da Meizi and Cuihua went to sleep in the little nest that Li Sheng had specially built for them. Li Sheng went through all the things he needed to do tomorrow in his mind, but he couldn't resist the sleepiness.
In his hazy state, he seemed to hear Naitu calling him, in a very soft voice, as if she were talking in her sleep.
At that moment, the baby was indeed calling for her father. She felt something cold and moving beside her, and it was enormous. She was terrified, but her father was asleep. She wanted to wake him up, but she couldn't be too loud for fear of angering the huge thing next to her.
The light from the skylight was partially blocked by something, but through the other half she could see scales gleaming coldly in the moonlight, and Naituan immediately thought of a python.
The python came to eat her; is it currently measuring her body to see if it can swallow her whole?
The little girl called out twice but failed to wake Li Sheng, so the little girl had to try again.
"Daddy~Daddy~, there's a really big, cold thing next to me."
The baby's voice was very soft, but it reached Li Sheng's dream. He felt something was wrong and wanted to wake up, but he was too tired. However, Li Sheng could also tell that he was dreaming. He was extremely anxious and thought about climbing a tall building and jumping off to see if he would wake up.
Seeing that her father still hadn't moved, the little girl got anxious and cried out, "Daddy~ Daddy, help me!"
The large snake beside her was about to coil around her. Although the snake was huge, it was not moving very fast, as if it had been asleep for a long time before waking up.
Hearing the baby's voice and the word "help" in his sleep, Li Sheng suddenly woke up as if struck by lightning.
He suddenly opened his eyes but dared not alert the enemy. As he opened his eyes, he saw a huge creature entering through the skylight.
Even though it was late at night, there were still some night owls among the viewers, with nearly 10,000 people still online, although a large portion of them were just hanging around.
However, some viewers remained conscious. The dark scenes the audience saw were specially processed, allowing them to perceive the dark environment while still clearly seeing their surroundings. Some viewers in the comment section were frantic with worry.
"A python, it's a huge python, holy crap, the milk ball is going to be swallowed up."
"Wake up, anchor! Wake up! Your child is about to become a python's meal."
"Ordinary pythons aren't this big. This must be a anaconda, a tyrant of the forest."
"It's over, it's over, we're all dead. We didn't even go out and mess with anyone, and they've already come to our house."
…………
Li Sheng obtained very reliable information from the barrage comments, knowing what he was about to face, which was very important. However, facing such a huge creature, what should he do? He couldn't call Da Meizi and Cuihua in. Even if they came in, it wouldn't make a difference. They probably wouldn't be able to hurt the python at all. If they were unlucky, they would all become its food.
Li Sheng's megalophobia was about to flare up. The diameter of this python's waist was thicker than a large water bucket. An ordinary python could crush a person's bones. If it were such a huge one, wouldn't crushing it be as easy as crushing a chick?
The worst part is that his left hand is also injured and he has no strength, not even the most basic ability to take care of himself.
He was now completely isolated and helpless.
But he couldn't just sit and wait to die. The milk ball kept calling to him in a very soft voice. He heard it, but he didn't respond.
He also refused to grab the axe directly, fearing he might accidentally injure the healers.
"Daddy~ Help me, the giant snake is about to coil around me."
Hearing Naituan's cries for help, Li Sheng didn't care about anything else. Naituan couldn't be left alone again. He slowly sat up from the bed and quietly got off. Fortunately, his skills were excellent, and the bed was very sturdy, so it didn't creak or make any noise. Everything had to be done quietly.
With the help of the dim light, he could clearly see the enormous creature. This huge thing could easily devour the milk ball, let alone him.
Perhaps the sudden extreme cold weather had caused this creature to hibernate, and now that the temperature has risen, it has come out to hunt.
The snake's head was thicker than his waist. Were you scared?
How could he not be afraid in front of such a behemoth? But even though he was afraid, he still had to go for it. He seized the opportunity and used all his strength to rush forward, grab the snake's big head, and pull it down.
You must never let its body get tangled with the milk ball.
Li Sheng's action was unexpected, and the giant snake was probably stunned. Mainly because Li Sheng was very strong, the giant snake fell down in Li Sheng's direction without any warning.
He succeeded; the snake came down. The milk ball was in danger for the time being, but now he was in danger. The snake's tail, which hadn't even entered the sanctuary yet, also fell down unexpectedly, slamming heavily to the ground.
Li Sheng was also pinned down by the snake.
This is a certain death situation.
The snake quickly recovered from its bewilderment.
Li Sheng tried to pull away, but his thigh was pinned down by the snake and he couldn't get free. At this moment, the snake stood up, looked at Li Sheng, and slowly coiled its body around him.
Li Sheng had no way to resist. The scales were extremely hard, and the snakes were wrapped all over his body. Once a snake was wrapped around him, there was basically no way to escape.
But the kind of person he is will not give up hope of living until his last breath. He will struggle to the very end no matter what. He will not die. Although he cannot hurt the snake with his bare hands, he still has an axe. As long as he gets the axe, he will definitely be able to kill it.
He remembered where he had put the axe before he went to sleep; it was under the bed and within easy reach, not far from where he was now. Li Sheng reached out and groped in the darkness, and sure enough, his fingers touched the axe. He was overjoyed; it seemed he was saved.
But he was too happy too soon. He could barely touch it with his left hand, but the muscles in his left hand had atrophied, so he couldn't grab it at all. His right hand could only touch it with his fingers, and he couldn't grab it even when he stretched his hand out as far as he could.
The anaconda tightened its grip, and he felt like he couldn't breathe. His hands kept trying and struggling, but his brain was starting to feel oxygen-deprived.
Meanwhile, Naituan was still in shock on the upper bunk. She was terrified when she saw her father being entangled by a giant snake. However, she also understood her father's actions and intentions through the moonlight streaming in.
Even if she was scared, she couldn't back down. She had told her mother that she would protect her father and take care of him.
In the end, courage quickly overcame fear. He got up and disembarked from the other side of the boat. Enduring his fear, he walked to the bedside on the other side and crawled over the anaconda. Something crawled over his body, and the anaconda opened its mouth wide and launched an attack. Just as he was about to fall into the snake's mouth, Li Sheng used all his strength to push with his left hand, and the baby was pushed over. The snake's big mouth bit Li Sheng's left hand.
