Giant latiao

That's right!

It was the giant python that he had chopped and wounded, and now it had come looking for him!

There was blood flowing from the spot on its neck where the axe had hacked it, the flesh was peeled back exposing it, looking horrifying!

And when the python saw Lu Zhe, it was also apprehensive. Its head stared fixedly at Lu Zhe, its eyes full of vicious, hateful malice!

Now, man and snake were in confrontation, neither daring to take a step forward!

What to do?

Lu Zhe knew that relying on his own strength now, he could probably kill the giant python, but there was also a probability that he would be injured!

If he fled with Class Leader Guo Er and the others, who knows if this thing would come looking for them again in the middle of the night!

He gripped the spear gun tightly, pondering countermeasures!

Soon, he thought of a way!

He bit the spear gun horizontally in his teeth, and started taking off his pants, while not daring to take his eyes off the python for even a moment!

He understood that the moment his eyes left it, this beast would most likely attack, leaving him with no chance of survival!

The python did not know what Lu Zhe was doing. It just saw its opponent with a rod horizontally in his mouth, so it did not know where to bite, only staring fixedly at its opponent!

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lu Zhe safely took off his pants, then swung them round and round by the pant legs!

This was behavior the python could not comprehend. It stared at the pants, somewhat confused!

Suddenly, Lu Zhe threw the pants at the snake’s face. The python reflexively bit Lu Zhe’s pants when they landed on it, and once it bit down, it immediately began to coil around them!

This was innate behavior for pythons, impossible to change even if they wanted to!

And it was also at this moment that its weakness was completely exposed!

The cloaca!

That was, the python’s asshole!

Lu Zhe aimed the spear gun at that spot and fiercely stabbed it!

“Pfft!”

The giant python’s body shook violently, immediately convulsing all over, body straightening out and rolling over, no longer having any strength to launch a second attack!

Lu Zhe threw away the spear gun, picked up a two hundred pound boulder, lifted it above his head, and smashed it down ferociously onto the snake’s head!

“Bang!”

Blood and gore sprayed everywhere, a pit appearing in the ground where it was smashed. The snake head was crushed to mush, but the snake’s body still convulsed and shook!

Lu Zhe let out a long breath, leaning back against the rock!

After resting for a while, he pushed the rock aside.

The snake’s head had already been smashed to bits, with no chance of survival. But its body still convulsed with shakes and tremors.

He picked up his pants!

They were smeared with snake blood and sand, filthy beyond words. But they needed washing anyway!

He casually draped them over his shoulders.

What to do about the giant python?

Lu Zhe was a little worried!

Leaving it here to rot, the stench would be unbearable in less than two days.

"Ding! Congratulations host, new protein source discovered, python meat!"

He had almost forgotten this thing was edible.

Drag it back and take a look!

Thinking this, he grabbed the giant python's tail and dragged it back to camp!

At that time, Ning Shu and Jiang Yao were washing clothes. Ruan Bing was lying behind them, covered in banana leaves, snoring away in sleep!

And then they saw Lu Zhe with his pants draped over his shoulder, wearing just his briefs, bare legs, dragging something with great effort as he walked over!

"Huh, what's Lu Zhe dragging?"

"Don't know, colorful stuff, looks pretty strange!"

"Let's go take a look!"

Next, when the two young girls clearly saw the giant python's whole body, they were scared nearly to flight on the spot!

The shrieking lasted a full three minutes before stopping!

Ning Shu said angrily: "Yo, Lu Zhe, why......why did you bring it back here?"

Jiang Yao also cried: "Quickly......quickly get rid of it!"

Lu Zhe threw the giant python onto the beach and stretched his back: “Don’t be afraid. This guy was crawling towards camp, probably wanting to get revenge on me. But I killed it first!”

“Huh?”

Jiang Yao cried loudly: “What do you mean you killed it, can’t you see it’s still moving!"

Lu Zhe looked back. The python would twitch its neck from time to time, the crushed snake head dangling limply to the side, blood splashing everywhere as it moved.

“It really is still......but that movement is muscular spasms. The head’s already smashed, it has absolutely no attacking power left!”

Ning Shu worked her energy: “I say, Lu Zhe, why......why did you bring this thing back to camp?”

“Why bring it back? Of course to eat it! A python this big, it'll be enough to eat for a long time right!"

The two girls were dumbfounded.

Eating little snakes was one thing, but a giant python could be eaten too?

What if it was the reincarnation of the White Snake Immortal!

Jiang Yao nervously asked: “Dear, tell me, you're joking....right?”

“Of course I’m serious!”

“This thing can be eaten?”

“This is a Burmese python! Also called the Southern snake, Jian snake, double-banded krait. It is a subspecies of the Asian rock python from the python family and python genus, and also one of the six largest snake species in the world! Python skin is the best material for making erhu. Python meat can definitely be cooked and eaten. The meat can also be made into smoked meat products and sausages...”

The two girls were shocked speechless!

“Oh my god, how do you know so much about this thing?”

“Don’t forget, I’m a man who has read ten thousand whys!”

Speaking, Lu Zhe took off his shirt and lifted the axe, chopping down onto the snake head one stroke after another!

Fresh blood splattered onto his delicate, fair and clean face, forming a strong contrast!

In a moment, he had chopped off the snake head. Next, he started dissecting the snake’s body!

The python skin was tough and robust. Lu Zhe was unable to cut through it with the penknife or table knife. He could only use the stone axe to chop it!

But he still couldn’t chop through!

With no other option, he spent half a day grinding the axe edge on a seaside boulder until it was sharp again!

This time he finally managed to slice the python open!

The two girls watched blankly. “Is this really the Lu Zhe we know?”

“The contrast with that handsome little fresh meat at school is too big!”

However, although he looked rough and cruel, it gave people a sense of security!

They believed that only by surviving together with a guy like this could they have safely made it this far!

If it was someone externally formidable but internally weak, they would have died eight or ten times already.

Lu Zhe spent great effort dividing the python meat into sections and laying them out on the rocky beach to dry!

Those chunks of snake meat were still slowly writhing. The patterned skin floated up and down in wavelike motions, making people’s scalp tingle at the sight!

Jiang Yao’s eyes were wide as she shrieked: “You already chopped it apart, so why is it still moving?”

“That’s the muscle memory convulsions. Don’t worry, it’s thoroughly dead! Also, I don’t think ‘chopped apart’ is the most fitting term here. It makes me feel like some creepy serial killer dismembering bodies!”

Ning Shu pointed at his bloody face and yelled: “But you totally look just like one right now!”

“I do?”

Jiang Yao looked him over. “You really do......more importantly, when will these things stop moving? I’m worried they’ll escape on their own in a bit!”

“They’ll stop moving soon. Actually, freshly butchered beef is the same. This shows it’s nice and fresh! It’s said that in the beautiful lands overseas, chefs will put roasted chunks of Burmese Python meat onto pizza. I heard it tastes pretty good!”

Ning Shu immediately imagined a scene of meat chunks writhing around on pizza: “Oh god....I have trauma about pizza now......”

“Actually, Burmese python is even more nutritious than rat meat, and better suited for eating too. Once it’s cooked, you’ll come to love it!”

The two girls shook their heads together. “No......never!”
