Chapter 30 Snatching the Bag



As he spoke, he put his arm around Qi Xiaojie's shoulder and pointed to the 9 o'clock position ahead, saying:

"It's simple. I'll go around behind it and distract it. Remember, as soon as it starts chasing me, you immediately rush over and grab the backpack."

"But...but you...how...how..."

"Okay..."

Fu Changxiong interrupted him…

"Don't worry, I have a way to escape. Even if it catches up with me, I can chop off its snake head in no time with this knife!"

If anything really happens to me, tell Brother Ye Feng to make sure he survives to the end.

My daughter... I'm entrusting her to him!

After saying that, without waiting for Qi Xiaojie's reply, he went straight to the back of the swamp...

He was actually quite unsure of himself; no normal person would remain calm in the face of such a massive python.

However, Fu Changxiong did not stop there; he knew…

Whatever survival tools are in that backpack, they will definitely play a huge role in Ye Feng's hands.

Ye Feng was his daughter's only hope for survival...

As he pondered, he had already reached the edge of the swamp at the back...

He carried a small pile of stones he had collected, nodded to Qi Xiaojie who was not far away, and then stepped into the swamp...

The thick, black sludge emitted a pungent, foul odor and instantly submerged his calves.

Every step Fu Changxiong took was extremely difficult, as if something was pulling at his legs.

The noise he made while walking also caught the attention of the anaconda…

The anaconda stopped eating, its dark, reddish-brown pupils radiating a sinister chill, its gaze fixed unblinkingly on him…

Fu Changxiong met that gaze, and his heart pounded wildly…

He was about 20 meters away from the giant python when he got there, and only then did he realize...

The snake was even bigger than he had estimated, especially its belly, which seemed to be thicker than a bucket.

But having come this far, there's no turning back...

Fu Changxiong raised his right hand, and Qi Xiaojie, seeing this, quickly followed suit, indicating that he was ready...

Seeing this, Fu Changxiong immediately picked up a stone and threw it directly at the giant snake.

"Sizzle!"

The blow struck its neck squarely. Whether from pain or anger, the snake let out a low hiss…

Upon seeing that his attack had hit its mark, Fu Changxiong immediately began using both hands, throwing all the stones in his arms in a few quick movements…

The giant snake's body writhed as it was smashed, and it quickly spat out the corpse from its mouth...

It turned its head and crawled straight towards Fu Changxiong...

"Little stutterer! Hurry up!"

Seeing that his plan had succeeded, Fu Changxiong shouted loudly and then prepared to flee...

But just as he was about to turn around, he felt as if his legs were welded shut.

He looked down and realized that his knees were already submerged in mud, unable to move and slowly sinking deeper...

Meanwhile, Qi Xiaojie was crawling on his stomach in the swamp, struggling towards his backpack...

It must be said that he was much smarter than Fu Changxiong. This method was not only faster, but it also distributed his weight, effectively preventing him from getting stuck in the mud...

Seeing that escape was impossible, Fu Changxiong steeled himself, drew his Nepalese kukri, and held it horizontally at his sides…

"Damn it! I'll fight you to the death!"

He was prepared to sever the snake's head with a single stroke the instant it attacked...

Given the sharpness of this military knife, if it gets cut, the snake will undoubtedly die...

To Fu Changxiong's surprise, the anaconda was still seven or eight meters away from him...

It suddenly turned its head and disappeared into the nearby grove of decaying wood; in a short while, its figure vanished completely…

Fu Changxiong was puzzled. He had thought it would be a fierce battle, but the giant snake had escaped.

Before he could figure out why, the mud had already submerged his lower body and was continuing to engulf him.

He tried to use his hands to support himself on either side and slowly get up, but the surrounding area was soft, mushy mud, with no foothold at all...

Helpless, he quickly shouted at Qi Xiaojie…

"Little stutterer! Help me!"

Qi Xiaojie had just gotten her backpack and was climbing back when she looked back and realized that Fu Changxiong had been stuck in the mud...

If we don't rescue him quickly, he's definitely going to die...

Thinking of this, he quickly moved his limbs and soon climbed to the shore...

Then he tossed his backpack aside, draped the collected vines around his neck, and hastily wiped his glasses, which were covered in mud...

Although he was already panting heavily, he had no time to rest now...

He jumped into the mud and crawled towards Fu Changxiong. He was racing against time; if he was even a step too late, Fu Changxiong would be gone without a trace…

However, Qi Xiaojie is a young man after all. Although he stutters when he speaks, he is not slow at all and has excellent physical strength.

Just as the mud was about to submerge Fu Changxiong's chest... he successfully handed the rattan cane to Fu Changxiong...

Then, without stopping, he climbed out of the swamp and firmly tied the vine to a large tree…

After doing all this, Qi Xiaojie finally collapsed on the grass, exhausted…

Fu Changxiong, relying on his powerful arm strength, managed to pull himself out of the swamp little by little after more than ten minutes...

After getting ashore, he patted Qi Xiaojie on the shoulder…

"Little stutterer, thank you so much..."

Qi Xiaojie waved his hand...

"No...it's nothing...it's all...it's what I...should do. By the way, why...why did the snake...suddenly...run away?"

Fu Changxiong shook his head, also filled with doubt…

"I don't know, but Brother Ye Feng should know. But what I want to know more about now is..."

"This backpack we almost risked our lives for, what might be inside... Let's go check it out."

Qi Xiaojie raised his eyebrows, pushed up his glasses, as if he had thought of something…

"That...that bag...it's...it's really heavy. At least...50 pounds."

"oh?"

Fu Changxiong was slightly taken aback; he had never seen a bag weighing 50 pounds before…

Keep in mind that the camera and battery foam together weigh only about 20 pounds... This made him even more curious.

The two quickly arrived at the place where they had started, and Fu Changxiong lifted his backpack, which was covered in mud.

He knew the moment he touched it that the bag weighed far more than 50 pounds…

After opening the backpack, a long, straight, black and white cylindrical object came into view. Judging from its length, it was about 80 centimeters long.

"Huh?..."

Both of them expressed their doubts. Fu Changxiong took it out and examined it carefully for a while, then unscrewed the lid of the cylinder...

Before their eyes appeared three sharp arrows of different shapes…

They are triangles, quadrilaterals, and cones...
