Chapter 18 Who is shouting for help?



Seeing this, Zhang Chuntao immediately supported him.

The two men shouted slogans and put in all their might, and finally pulled up a large net of fish.

“Wow, my god, so many fish!!”

When the fishing net was pulled up, Zhang Chuntao's eyes lit up instantly.

But this net actually caught fifty or sixty fish, including crucian carp, mandarin fish, and even a very beautiful golden carp.

"Chun Tao, pick out these small fish for us to eat, and I'll send the remaining big fish to Brother Guang tomorrow."

Li Yuemin was very happy to see the fish successfully caught.

After instructing Zhang Chuntao to sort the fish, he began to cast the net to catch fish.

"Help, help! Something happened, someone come, someone come quickly!"

"What's that noise? Who's shouting for help?"

...

...

Unexpectedly, when the couple was fishing seriously, a cry for help suddenly came from nearby.

Seeing this, Li Yuemin immediately became alert and protected Zhang Chuntao firmly behind him.

At the same time, he took out the bow and crossbow, ready to attack at any time.

Because he knew that there were many wild animals near the mountain, and the voice of the person coming sounded like he was being chased by some wild animal.

If this blind beast rushed straight towards the two of them, they would be doomed.

"No, why does this voice sound so familiar, could it be Li Guolin?

That's impossible, he should be at home with Song Mengyao right now."

Just as Li Yuemin was wondering, a big-faced man appeared in front of him and grabbed his arm:

“Oh, Yuemin, it’s you, that’s great.

Please, do me a favor!!”

"Li Guolin, it's you! How come you are on the mountain?"

"Yuemin, after I came back from the county, Mengyao complained that the clothes I bought for her were not pretty, and she insisted that I go up the mountain to hunt a mink for her as compensation.

I was so annoyed by her crying that I had to go into the mountains.

Who knew that I would meet my second aunt's sister Xiaoxue on the way. She thought it was fun for me to go up the mountain to hunt, so she followed me up.

Unexpectedly, we encountered a giant python as soon as we got up the mountain.

That python was so evil, it took Xiaoxue away when I wasn't paying attention! !

Yuemin, please save Xiaoxue, or she will die!!"

"What? The child was taken away by a python?"

Zhang Chuntao, who was standing by, was stunned when she heard this and immediately asked:

"Xiaoxue was captured, how did you come back safely? Did you abandon her and run away?"

"I was so scared at the time, so, so..."

When Li Guolin heard this, he immediately lowered his head in shame and stammered.

"asshole!!"

When Li Yuemin heard this, he slapped him in the face. His eyes widened as he angrily shouted:

"Li Guolin, you bastard, don't you know how dangerous it is in the mountains?

Xiaoxue is only eight years old. How dare you bring such a young child up the mountain?"

"Yes, yes, yes, Yuemin, you fought well, you fought well!!"

Seeing the anger in Li Yuemin's eyes, Li Guolin, who was anxious to ask him for help, didn't care about his face at this moment, and cried and begged:

"Yuemin, you can slap me three or five times.

But Xiaoxue’s life is in danger now. I’m afraid that in a little while, she will be completely swallowed by the python.

Please save her, please save her quickly!!"

After saying that, seeing that Li Yuemin remained silent, Li Guolin began to slap himself on the mouth wildly, left, right, and left again and again.

"Brother Yuemin, Xiaoxue's life is precious, but you can't act rashly.

Didn’t you hear what Guo Lin said just now? That was a giant python that was dozens of meters long. How could you save it by yourself?

Let's hurry down the mountain now, call the police and ask the Forestry Bureau to come, maybe we can still make it in time!!

Seeing Li Yuemin hesitating, Zhang Chuntao guessed that he would definitely risk his life to save people, so she grabbed his arm and ran down the mountain without saying a word.

"Go down the mountain? Yuemin, you can't go down the mountain!!"

Seeing Li Yuemin about to leave, Li Guolin panicked for a moment and hugged his thighs:

“We are still more than ten minutes away from the way down the mountain. By the time you come back to find people, the child will have been swallowed up, right?

Yuemin, I know I have offended you a lot before. I am not a human being, but a beast.

But no matter what, I beg you to save Xiaoxue. As long as you help, I will agree to any conditions."

"Really? You can agree to any conditions?"

Li Yuemin heard this and said with a turn of eyes:

"Well, if I save Xiaoxue, how about you give us a big tiled house?"

What, Li Yuemin, you want me to give you a big tiled house, isn't this taking advantage of the situation?"

Li Guolin almost dropped his jaw when he heard what Li Yuemin said.

A pair of small eyes clicked, full of disbelief.

"What do you mean by taking advantage of someone's misfortune? I just want to get back what belongs to my family.

Don't forget, one of the three big rooms in your house was originally left to my dad by my grandfather.

It was just that my father was kind-hearted at the time, so I let him live there.

I want my things back home now, is that wrong?

If you don't want to, forget it.

You are the one who caused the trouble anyway, why should I risk my life to clean up your mess?"

After saying that, Li Yuemin dragged Chuntao down the mountain, ready to call the police to save people.

"Hey, no, no, no, Yuemin, my good brother, I was wrong.

Okay, as long as you save Xiaoxue alive, I will return the big tile house to you."

"Well, that's what you said. A gentleman's word is as good as his bond."

Seeing that Li Guolin agreed to his conditions, Li Yuemin nodded with satisfaction:

"Where did Xiaoxue meet the giant python? Take me there!"

Seeing that he agreed, Li Guolin stood up and pulled him behind an old tree:

“This is it. At that time, my attention was completely focused on hunting martens, so I asked Xiaoxue to wait under the tree.

Unexpectedly, a giant python climbed down the tree silently, and when I found out, Xiaoxue had been entangled by the giant python.

It was all my fault that I was so scared at the time that I just ran away."

“Normally speaking, a python’s swallowing speed is usually within two to three hours.

Xiaoxue is a half-grown child after all, and now it is winter, the python's activity has greatly decreased.

It is impossible to digest the snow in less than half an hour."

As he spoke, Li Yuemin squatted down and used his rough fingers to push aside the snow, revealing the messy dragging marks and a few drops of blood that had frozen into ice crystals.

"Yuemin, do you think Xiaoxue still has a chance of survival?!"

Upon hearing this, Li Guolin still asked anxiously.

Li Yuemin did not answer, his eyes followed the traces on the snow into the depths of the dense forest.

The marks were very new, with two parallel grooves pressed into the snow, and intermittent bloodstains in between.

As a former outstanding special forces soldier, search training has long been engraved in his bones.

As long as there is a little trace on the ground, he can deduce what happened here based on these details.

Sure enough, after careful investigation, Li Yuemin came to a conclusion:

"Not a snake."

"What is that?"

"Yuemin, what do you mean?

Li Guolin and Zhang Chuntao were confused by his inexplicable words and looked at each other in bewilderment.

Upon hearing this, Li Yuemin pointed to the ground and said:

"You see, the widths of these two crawl marks are different. The one on the left is obviously thicker, and the scale marks are deeper."

As he spoke, he moved his fingers:

"At this point, the two tracks intersect and the snow is messed up, indicating that a fierce battle once took place here."

After saying this, Li Yuemin stood up, patted the snow off his body, and made his final judgment:

“According to my guess, there are two pythons in this place.

One of them entangled Xiaoxue, and the other came to snatch food.

The first snake was defeated and left its prey behind, and Xiaoxue was taken away by the second snake.

"Oh my God!"

Upon hearing this, Li Guolin's eyes went dark and he almost fainted:

"Then Xiaoxue is..."

"Xiaoxue should still be alive."

Seeing Li Guolin unable to handle the situation, Li Yuemin glanced at him with disdain and pointed at the bloodstains on the ground:

“A python will strangle a person before swallowing him. Judging from the amount of blood, Xiaoxue is just injured.

When two snakes fight over her, and the first one doesn’t have time to strangle her, the second one will start the process all over again.”

At this point, Li Yuemin paused and looked up at the sky:

"It's still early, we still have time, we must split up and make good arrangements for the response."
