Chapter 149 Red Sea Snake
Fish were caught one after another, and Zhang Aihua wanted to take out a knife and make some sashimi on the spot.
Suddenly, the fishing rod began to shake violently again. Song Yufang said in surprise, "Husband, come and help me pull it. It's so heavy!"
Zhang Aihua rushed forward to help, and a giant red sea snake emerged from the water.
The bright color of the flowers is out of tune with the surrounding environment, and at first glance it looks like it is highly poisonous.
The snake's waist was almost as thick as Song Yufang's. When it surfaced, it kept twisting the hook to climb out of the water, which was very servile.
Zhang Aihua was frightened all over, and Lei Hu next to him saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly used the dagger he carried with him to cut the fishing line.
The fishing line broke and the giant red sea snake fell into the sea. Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, they saw the giant red sea snake poking its head out of the sea again, its sinister eyes staring at them, as if it was trying to crawl ashore.
Zhang Aihua picked up a shovel and smashed it on the head of the giant red sea snake, making it so weak that it fell into the sea, not knowing whether it was dead or alive.
After confirming that there were no snakes, everyone was preparing to continue fishing.
Suddenly, Zhang Yiwen noticed a strange scene under his feet.
The ice surface was gradually turning red, and the rhythm of its wriggling and shaking was very similar to that of the giant red sea snake just now.
Everyone was still having fun fishing.
Zhang Yiwen was shivering all over and yelled, "Run! The snakes are coming up! Run!"
While everyone was stunned, the fish that had bitten the hook was swallowed by the sea snake in one gulp.
One giant red sea snake is scary enough, but now there are thousands of them.
It's really creepy.
Everyone’s first reaction was to run, run fast, run as fast as possible.
Someone was reluctant to give up the fish that was about to fall into his mouth, and caught a glimpse of a sea snake with its mouth wide open and fangs exposed. He was so scared that he pissed and shit himself, and ran away faster than anyone else.
Everyone rushed to the shore desperately. The red sea snakes that lived on the seabed crawled out one after another from the ice hole they had dug. It was because their movements were obviously slower after they got ashore that Zhang Aihua and his friends were lucky enough to run ahead of the sea snakes.
Seeing the continuous outflow of red sea snakes, they simply didn't have enough bullets to shoot.
Zhang Aihua could only let everyone run first, and sent Lao Er and Brother Qiu to notify Jiang Si and the others to see if Jiang Si and the others could shoot all the sea snakes that came out of the sea before the ice froze.
Of course, the ice they dug and the sea snakes they attracted couldn't just sit there doing nothing.
If you don't have bullets, use weapons and traps.
When Zhang Aihua returned to the camp, he asked everyone to dig a ditch quickly. As long as the red sea snake fell into it, they would use a fork to kill the snake, while also keeping the camp safe.
At the same time, Qin Shen had already noticed their situation, and he and Jiang Si took Lu Zhifeng and Jiang Linhai to investigate the situation.
The second brother and Brother Qiu met them halfway and quickly told them what had just happened. However, Jiang Si and the others did not show any surprise, obviously they had known about it for a long time.
This made Lao Er and Brother Qiu feel a chill in their hearts. Could it be that they knew that breaking the ice would attract sea snakes, but they deliberately kept it secret in order to kill someone with a borrowed knife?
He then dismissed this stupid idea. If Jiang Si and the others really wanted to kill someone, they could have done it easily and effortlessly before.
They must have some kind of drone or something that detected their situation.
Sure enough, Jiang Si asked them, "What color are the snakes? How big are they? Are there groups of them?"
Brother Qiu replied, "The snake's body was red and white, with a teardrop-shaped pattern on its head. It was incredibly large. I've never seen a snake this big in the sea. It was as thick as a human waist. When it suddenly appeared, it completely covered the entire sea surface."
The second child added: "They crawl up and bite people, and they look like they want to eat people. It's so scary. Water snakes should always be in the water, how can they come ashore?"
Everyone has seen many mutant creatures, but hearing such a description still makes people feel a little creepy.
Sea snakes that are the size of pythons and are venomous and can live both in the water and on land are really tricky to deal with.
If we can't eradicate the problem completely, we will have nightmares at night.
Jiang Si and the others walked forward for a while, when suddenly they saw a red shadow moving in front of them. Perhaps the snow hindered their movement, and their sliding speed was obviously slow.
Qin Shen suddenly hugged Jiang Si and climbed up a dry giant tree in two or three steps. Standing on the branches, he was able to overlook the ice surface.
The horrifying scene, at first glance, is as gorgeous as the ocean tide, quite beautiful.
A closer look gives you goosebumps.
There are so many sea snakes, and they keep drilling upwards.
When everyone saw Jiang Si and Qin Shen climb up the tree, they immediately ran up the branches to avoid being targeted by the red sea snake.
But this giant red sea snake must have noticed them. Surprisingly, it lost its aggressiveness and turned back to the ice.
Jiang Si was a little surprised and looked at Qin Shen, asking if he was scared.
Qin Shen shook his head. Most of the time, his pressure could only be applied to mammals, the uncivilized kind, and was useless.
Qin Shen was not scared, so why did they run away? Could it be that they can only stay on the shore for a while?
Not only did Jiang Si notice something was wrong, but Jiang Linhai also managed to crawl over to Qin Shen and Jiang Si and sat down and said, "Sisi, look, are the snakes in front of you all crawling back?"
Jiang Si nodded, "Yeah, it should be."
Jiang Si turned to look at Brother Qiu again: "How long has this snake been on shore?"
Brother Qiu recalled, "No more than half an hour."
The returning snake collided with the snake that wanted to go ashore, causing the already small ice hole to be blocked, making it impossible to get in or out.
The first batch of red sea snakes that came out indeed showed signs of discomfort. The amplitude of their wriggling and struggling movements became smaller and smaller, and finally they became motionless like a steamed dried fish exposed to the sun.
Everyone was excited when they saw this scene.
If the red sea snake can only stay on shore for half an hour and will die suddenly after that time, then the danger will be greatly reduced.
Jiang Si and his friends had no shortage of food, so they thought it was nothing serious for the red sea snake to come ashore. However, for Zhang Aihua and his friends, it had a huge impact.
Fishing became very difficult after that.
In other words, don't even think about eating fish.
Even if you eat radishes every day, they won't be able to survive without protein supplements.
The second brother asked the question on everyone's mind: "Can we eat this dead snake?"
Everyone's eyes lit up. As long as the venom glands of snakes are not punctured, there should be no problem eating them.
A large red sea snake is enough for them to eat for a long time.
But to be on the safe side, Lao Er and Brother Qiu decided to drag a red sea snake back first and get some fish meat to feed the fish.
An hour later, the ice froze again.
Without exception, all the red sea snakes that came ashore died.
