191 The White Python Is Equal to a Yellow Dog (1/2)
The ultimate kill technique was to ask the shipyard to make a basketball-sized iron case, put the venom into it, and then tie it down with a thin wire. As soon as the python came close to the bait, which would be Taisui, it would be exploded and killed.
In order to increase the effect of the killing, Chen Fan also used adhesive tape to glue twenty fist-sized iron eggs onto the iron case. Iron eggs! Wouldn't it be an anti-infantry mine, if you also put on a bicycle steel ball?
The next afternoon, in the same spot in the cave, the electric eel laid motionless on the cliff face, staring straight at the handmade bomb. The bomb…. The coiling paper wrapping the bomb was also a bomb, and it was a bomb that used enriched uranium -235 to produce nuclear fission.
But the difference was that this bomb's lethality was lower. The lethality of the Taisui poison bomb was unknown, but it'd probably not have any difficulty in blowing up a cow-sized head!
The electric eel stood on the cliff for two hours, and still the smell of the Taisui did not attract the white python.
”Did it get a serious injury?” Chen Fan's mind was full of malicious thoughts.
Ho! As if to prove it was not dead, the python that was originally under the calm water, suddenly showed its cow-sized head. As it surfaced, a thick white gas spewed from its mouth, showing its power toward the electric eel on the cliff.
But the image of the python was a bit sad, as it had a large gap on the left side of the mouth, and even its head and abdomen had a lot of scars. This python that was originally beautiful and magnificent, had already become very ugly.
The python was about a hundred meters from the bomb site, when it stopped and roared for a long time, without moving closer towards the bomb's position, which made Chen Fan worried. The desperate Chen Fan quickly controlled the electric eel, swung the steel wire in his claws, and tried to shake it to the head of the snake. Then, he killed it. The python, with a bam, went into the water, vanishing without a trace.
”Shit, is it like the Madame White Snake, that became a spirit?” After waiting for half an hour, the electric eel returned to the stone tower without success, pondering this myth.
The python must have just eaten a hook, and been traumatized by that, so when it saw a similar scene, it judged that it was in danger and fled. Of course!
The reason why a man becomes a man of all things, is that man not only has a strong learning ability, but also a strong memory ability! And thus, also has a more powerful creative ability. Speaking of creative ability, since the steel wire was not elastic, he would have to try a creative, different way.
”Dally...Dally....” the electric eel ran to the edge of the lake with a spear and cut out a small hole on the mica stone. It then dug ten centimeters, buried the bombs in the pit, and hid in the lake to monitor what would happen.
But after the electric eel had done all the work and was ready to run into the lake, the white python quietly swam up the cliff from 200 meters away, then fixed its gaze on the electric eel. The scene that happened next made Chen Fan's jaw drop, as the python opened its mouth and spat out a fist-sized blue stone on the ground. It then dove into the cliff, splashing out small waves.
Dementia, complete dementia did this cause! The electric eel was stunned for half a minute, only to finally struggle out of the dementia. What does this white python want to do? Peering at the blue stone, it looked as if it had been polished by man, its round surface smooth without a dent, just like a sapphire's crystal clear beautiful color.
Half an hour later, Chen Fan, who now held the unknown object in a daze, initially thought it was a sapphire, but when he took a closer look at it, he realized that it was not a stone at all. It felt cold in his hand, yet with hardly a pinch, he could feel a weak elasticity in it.
Does it want to bribe him with such a beautiful gem?
Or, does it want to swap this for Taisui?
But, it's not even a gem!
If this thing were sold on the market, people would think that it was a man-made artifact. To know that sapphire had a hardness of nine, which is only one hardness lower than the hardest diamond in nature, it was obvious to Chen Fan that this item was a million miles from a sapphire's standard.
”Well, how would a snake know about gems, anyway?” Putting the blue stone away, Chen Fan laid on his yacht, thinking that, if the snake comes up, he would kill it without hesitation. But now, it had had a spiritual exchange with him...
He kept thinking. Even if the stone was sold, it wouldn't be worth a lot of money. However, one couldn't necessarily measure its worth with human values.
Kill it?
Or not?
....
Well, let's just observe it for a while, Chen Fan ultimately decided. If it maintains this warmth of exchange attitude, Chen Fan would decide to keep it. After all, it's not something that the average animal could do, so at least he knew it was smarter than a gorilla!
If he doesn't kill it, he'll have to try to raise the battle quality of the electric eel, trying to get the voltage up to 100,000 volts. This would enable him to ignore the incomparable speed of the python. That way, if and when he tried to kill it, it couldn't run away.
The next day, Chen Fan was using a pulverizer to make ginseng for his Taisui and the electric eel that curled up in the lake, when heard the roar of the python. Opening his eyes, he found it perched on the edge of the cliff, its big head staring right at the electric eel.
Ho! The electric eel, which was disturbed in its sleep, also lifted its head and vibrated its mouth with a powerful airflow, which was much thicker than the sound of the python, but without the resounding echo.
It's hard already, in general daily life, for the crocodile dragons, and in front of these two powerful creatures, they were so scared, that they don't even dare show their heads. Not far from the python, a fist-sized blue stone was on the ground. But this time, instead of dropping the stone, it jumped into the water and kept staring at the electric eel, playing with the stone in its big scarlet mouth.
”Damn, this is too...” Chen Fan hesitated, the meaning of the scene being easy to guess. He knew it was here for Taisui, but in case he came up with the stone every day, wouldn't he need to send Taisui every time? Much to consider...
With a few wags, the electric eel swam back to the stone tower and continued to sleep.
Ho!
Seeing its friendly behavior was being ignored, the white python immediately screamed, its huge body producing crackling noises. Then, it dashed to the electric eel along the surface of the water.
Boom!
The electric eel, with a flash of blue light and a voltage of 45,000 volts, immediately put the brakes on the savage python, from eight hundred meters away. Roar... roar...roar... the giant python, which had fled to the side, was anxious, wearing the hesitant expression of one wanting to rush again, but not daring.
Annoyed by the noise, the electric eel scurried around to the edge of it, then went wild and released electricity. Like a kitten with its tail just stepped on, the white snake flew from the surface of the water, and with a speed that made Chen Fan dazzled, moved swiftly to the shore. Then, it continued to scream.
”Forget it, forget it. You're the boss!” After the electric eel had thrown a Taisui to it, he wanted the python to be out of his sight. As the eel staggered to the entrance, he went out to find food.
When he returned to the stone tower, the white python had disappeared, but it revealed that it was quite human-like, as it had kept the blue stone. This stone, just like the last one, was almost identical, like it had come from the same mold.
What the hell is that? If there was only one, it could be seen as a coincidence to have been left, but now that there were two, such a thing could not be natural, unless the python had a habit of polishing stones!
”If he picks up the stone and comes again tomorrow, let the electric eel go down the cliff and kill it.” Thinking about it, Chen Fan knew this was cruel.
The Taisui was not a jelly bean, but it was a magic weapon that could strengthen the body's quality, so he couldn't supply it every day. Animals, after all, are animals, so they can't be as intelligent as humans. For example, just now, when he didn't give the Taisui to the python, it unexpectedly was enraged and attacked him.
The electric eel narrowed his eyes to sleep for a long time, while Chen Fan took control of it and swam to the dock. He was ready to feed it with the Taisui in order to strengthen it. After the cultivation in these days, the Taisui had absorbed 1,700 kilograms of ginseng powder and depleted all of Chen Fan's stock.
