During this time, it will stay by the egg until it hatches.
The female snake will attack without hesitation if she detects any creature approaching the nest of eggs.
When Ye Feng crossed the river, he walked at the very front, and his direction was exactly the closest to the snake egg.
This is probably why he became the python's primary target.
Ye Feng was still feeling a lingering fear; this was a completely unexpected disaster.
Today was incredibly dangerous; I wouldn't have survived without my companions' timely help.
It's estimated that in a few more seconds, his bones will be broken, and he will die in this mangrove forest, or be swallowed by a giant python.
It seems that next time something like this happens, we'll have to let the tough-skinned Fu Changxiong and Zhan Pengwu go first.
"Hey bro, are these snake eggs edible?"
Zhan Pengwu stared at the egg, his eyes practically popping out of their sockets. His foodie nature seemed unchanged no matter the environment.
Ye Feng picked up an egg, examined it for a moment, then shook his head and said:
"Snake eggs are not like crocodile eggs; they are said to have a particularly strong fishy smell and taste terrible."
If you don't mind, bring a few, but don't bring too many.
I estimate that the baby snakes inside may have already taken shape.
Zhan Pengwu chuckled, seemingly unconcerned, and immediately pocketed a few.
Seeing this, Tang Weiwei and Zhan Pengfei also grabbed a few.
The group turned to leave, but after only a few steps, Ye Feng, who was at the back, noticed that the backs of Zhan Pengwu and Tang Weiwei's clothes were slowly turning red.
He squinted and looked at it for a while before he could confirm that it was blood.
It must have been from the fight with the giant python.
Ye Feng was deeply moved, but also felt a little regretful.
If we had known earlier that it was because of the egg, there would have been no need to chase the snake.
Getting injured in the jungle is very dangerous, and even if you have your own medicine, you can't be careless.
There are too many bacteria; if they interfere, the consequences will be unimaginable.
“Monk, David, why didn’t you say you were injured on your backs? The water was so dirty, it’s easy to get an infection.”
Upon hearing this, the two immediately stopped, stretched their backs, exchanged a puzzled look, and then looked at Ye Feng with confusion.
"Hey bro, we're both alright, aren't you hurt?"
"I don't feel injured at all?"
As soon as the two finished speaking, Zhan Pengfei turned around and looked at their backs.
"My god, you two have so much blood on your backs! And you said you weren't injured?!"
The others also gathered around, all of them startled. Logically speaking, with so much blood, the wound must be quite large.
It doesn't hurt, and I didn't even notice it. How is that possible?
Zhan Pengwu and the other man were also stunned, and reached behind their backs to touch something.
Sure enough, my fingers were covered in blood…
"Mom! What... what do I do? I don't feel any pain!"
Ye Feng immediately sensed something was wrong and quickly lifted up the clothes of the two men.
"Hiss~"
The onlookers couldn't help but widen their eyes, crane their necks, and get goosebumps all over their bodies.
On the backs of the two men, there were more than a dozen leeches of various sizes...
The objects, which were originally long and thin, were now plump and full, like greasy slugs.
They were all wriggling slightly, enough to trigger trypophobia in anyone who saw them.
The blood flowed from where they were lying.
Judging by their appearance, these guys are clearly already full...
"It seems that we can't just go down into the Amazon rainforest easily."
"There are so many leeches in such shallow water."
Upon hearing that it was a leech, Tang Weiwei and Zhan Pengwu were not particularly afraid.
"It's okay, just tear it off. This stuff isn't poisonous."
Tang Weiwei reached up to reach into her back...
"Don't move!"
Ye Feng quickly called a halt...
"You two don't think this is the rice paddies in rural China, do you? You're not thinking of leeches here."
This is the Amazon, and leeches carry bacteria. If you forcibly peel them off, you'll make the wound worse and cause profuse bleeding.
Hearing this, the two panicked a little, but they naturally had no doubt about Ye Feng's professional knowledge.
"What can we do then? Are we just going to let them keep smoking?"
Tang Weiwei tried to turn her head to see her back clearly.
Ye Feng, however, urged everyone to quickly start a fire…
"Leech will stop sucking once it reaches a certain point, so the most important thing right now is to stop the bleeding and kill the bacteria."
Otherwise, the record of contracting diseases would be quite high.
After saying that, he led everyone to find a dry place and start a fire.
Ye Feng took out a first-aid kit and handed it to Zhan Pengfei. He then picked up a piece of glowing charcoal and began to remove the leeches from the two of them one by one.
Leeches are most afraid of fire.
Upon contact, these creatures, like mice seeing a cat, curled up and fell to the ground.
Sure enough, without the leeches blocking the wound, fresh blood began to seep out...
Zhan Pengfei immediately used a spray to quickly stop the bleeding, and then applied alcohol for disinfection.
The moment Tang Weiwei and the other woman touched the wound, they grimaced in pain.
This also proves that Amazonian leeches do indeed contain a lot of bacteria.
After about ten minutes, the wound was bandaged, and the treatment was considered complete.
Another half hour passed, and after the Chinese medicine was brewed, Zhan Pengfei applied the medicine to each of Ye Feng's bruises.
Ye Feng learned a lesson this time; the waters of the Amazon are not to be taken lightly.
As the old saying goes, haste makes waste. He was too impatient, which is why he fell into the trap.
Of course, luck also plays a part.
Fortunately, they had accumulated enough equipment. Without sufficient medicine, an ordinary person would probably not have been able to survive for more than three hours in this primeval rainforest.
Ye Feng glanced at the sky; he had already wasted about forty or fifty minutes here.
It should be almost 9 o'clock now, and the map will refresh in about an hour, so we can't rest any longer.
Ignoring the pain coursing through his body, he continued on his journey with the others.
Before leaving, following the principle that a thief should not leave empty-handed, Ye Feng asked Fu Changxiong to cut off a piece of snake meat.
After all, it took them quite a bit of effort to kill that giant python.
Looking at the map... the area they've been in for the past two days is a continuous mountain range.
Ye Feng's planned route was to pass through here and reach the plains ahead.
Of course, this plain is not meant literally.
Rather, it refers to areas that are relatively low-lying compared to these towering mountain ranges.
There are still countless plants there, as well as tall forests, and creatures that are dangerous, even more dangerous than this.
But at least, the journey should be easier, without having to climb uphill and downhill all the time.
The mountain road was very difficult to travel, full of potholes and ups and downs.
Waist-high weeds grew wildly everywhere, and every now and then a poisonous snake or a swarm of flying insects would dart out.
Even if you don't get bitten, you'll still be scared half to death.
Half an hour passed during this thrilling and cautious journey.
Ye Feng and his group emerged once again from a rugged patch of vegetation.
When they came out, everyone's heads were covered with leaves and twigs.
"Hey, Xiaoyan! You have something on your head..."
