Snake Swamp Ghost Town (Part 2) Chapter 27 Night 3: Snake Mother
Social snake group. This sentence flashed in my mind for a moment, and at the same time, I remembered what Fatty said casually yesterday. He said that these snakes behave like ants, and that there might be a snake queen here. .
I thought this was impossible at the time. The cooperative actions of these snakes were at most just a manifestation of the group instinct like vultures competing for food. Unexpectedly, I saw such a relief here. It is simply a model of animal social habits. .
These small red cockscomb snakes play the role of engineers among social insects and are numerous in number, while those brocade pythons are male snakes, large in size and small in number, and this huge dragon-like snake is what the fat man said. Snake Queen, the only snake mother here. Judging from this relief, this female snake is so huge that the male snake cannot mate with her smoothly, and so many cockscomb snakes are needed to assist. And according to the laws of nature, such a huge snake mother may not be able to move, and indeed needs help from others to mate, just like some giant sows being raised.
Could it be that there really is such a huge snake deep in this sea of trees?
I know quite a bit about the history of snakes. Among the legends about giant snakes in my mind, the largest one is in the rainforest of Brazil. Someone claimed to have seen a 50-meter-long giant anaconda. Snakes are very similar to snakes. Humans are different. They do not have a fixed limit of lifespan. Generally, snakes will die naturally when they are too big to hunt food. However, in certain situations where food is sufficient, snakes can continue to grow. Those giant snakes are simply the king of rainforests. god. However, even so, those snakes were only about 100 years old when they died. How long has this relief been here? It is at least three to four thousand years. If this snake mother really existed here, she should be dead.
And such a huge body, if it ever existed, must have lived in water. The swamp here obviously does not have such great buoyancy.
I was a little stunned when I saw these reliefs. If we saw these reliefs in a museum, we might think that they were exaggerations or myths of the ancients, but we have encountered these poisonous snakes here and seen their strange behaviors with our own eyes. So, this relief is most likely depicting a real scene. Then this may be a huge discovery in biology, history, archeology and even sociology.
Looking at this relief, we really can’t let it go. How did this weird behavior of snakes evolve? Why is it so different from other snakes? I sense there must be a deeper reason. These reasons must be related to the history of the Queen Mother Kingdom of the West.
The subsequent reliefs are a series of scenes of worship. In a temple, many people kneel before a poisonous snake. Looking at the outline of the temple, it is obviously where we are. Counting down, the swamp has not submerged this place. Previously, this temple had five floors, but now the mud has buried all three floors below. On the altar of the temple, the snake stood upright in front of everyone. This should also be one of the scenes of sacrifice. Except for the strange movements of the snake, there is nothing weird about it. The altar is in front of the main entrance of the temple. Let's come At that time there was only rubble, and it had obviously collapsed completely.
When we look at it as a whole, we find that the way the boulders are expressed is that the center is the scene of snake reproduction, surrounded by the sacrifice of snakes, the raising of snakes, the war between snakes and humans, and many other scenes about snakes, just like the stuffy oil bottle. It is said that this is a stone wall that records information about snakes.
I also wanted to get some more information from it, but after reading it a few times, I found that there were very few parts that could be carefully discerned in more detail, and I couldn't gain anything anymore. The stone walls on the side also have no reliefs.
We recovered our minds, and then we heard the fat man's voice coming from far away, scolding: What are you two doing to each other? It's not over, I've called you several times, do you want to eat?
We were still not finished, but when we saw that there were no clues for the time being, our stomach growled, and our appetite suddenly defeated our curiosity, so we had to stop.
I supported him,
Climbing down and walking to the stove, I could already smell the long-lost aroma of meat. The fat man used a basin as a pot and hung it over the bonfire to barbecue.
The fat man asked us what we were doing there. He really thought he was a cook and didn't come to help us.
When I told him what we had just discovered, he was quite surprised, but he was also very proud and said: Great minds can always make the right decision. You must learn from it and listen to me in the future. This way, we will not realize it later... However, if the snake mother is really dead, why are the snakes still collecting the corpses, and what do they collect the corpses for?
Maybe they are feeding those male snakes that look like brocade pythons. Do you still remember? When we found Aning's body last night, there were a large number of pheasant necks around the brocade python. They were obviously protecting the brocade python. This kind of male snake is also a noble class and will be supported by the snake group. These snakes can still survive due to their size, but it is absolutely impossible for the female snake to survive. There is too little food here. If such a big snake is really active in modern times, we can't You should see some traces, so I think this giant snake died a thousand years ago. I said.
After saying this, the fat man nodded, and I told him that now I can imagine that these snakes are not evil snakes with ulterior motives. They are also acting according to their instincts, so I can feel more at ease.
He sighed and said, I can only feel a little relieved. There are still many doubts about this matter. I don't know how to spend tonight. Eat quickly. When you are full, you can fight.
I was very hungry and didn’t want to discuss this anymore, so I asked him what he had cooked for dinner.
I cooked all the canned food, and only a little was left. It was a stew of luncheon meat, steamed buns, and sardines. It was a hodgepodge, but it didn't taste very good. The fat man said, Come on, don't talk about these snakes. It's off-putting. Let's try it. Fatty, my craftsmanship is free of charge for the first bite, and from the second bite onwards, every bite is a useful tool.
What skills are needed to cook this thing? Isn't it just boiling it in water? I asked.
Tsk, tsk, so you are much lower class than your third master, and can only be a hawker for the rest of your life. The fat man disagreed. My stomach growled with hunger, so I immediately scooped up a bowl with an empty can and took a big bite. It made me cry, but it was really delicious. It tasted a bit like rice cakes, at least it felt like a meal.
As soon as I stirred and the aroma came out, the fat man couldn't show off anymore. He stopped talking nonsense with us, and the three of them drank up the soup in a hurry.
After eating, I was sweating all over, my body suddenly gained strength, and my knees were no longer sore.
How about it? Not bad. You should learn from it. People live for seventy years and rarely eat, drink, whore, and gamble. Eating is the only enjoyment in a person's life. You, fat man, and I are living on a knife's edge. People like us can enjoy You have to enjoy it while you’re there, maybe this will be our last meal.”
Bah! I said angrily: You're talking about eating, drinking, whoring and gambling. This is your last fucking meal. Don't drag us into it.
It's such an unlucky time to say this, because this may indeed be the last meal.
Look, look, this is the feudal legacy of the feudal class. The fat man made a very unflattering expression. But then he said: These things are very powerful. Our eyes were blurred by the fog yesterday. We need to take some to replenish it, otherwise it will easily lead to the root cause of the disease.
I thought of the fog last night and wondered, By the way, why are we fine in the woods but blind here?
The fat man said: I think it may be a problem with the water here. The fog is condensed by water vapor, and the water in the forest is living water, but the water below here may be dead. We don't know the specific situation.
I nodded and remembered the shadow I saw when I regained my sight, so I asked them if they also had this phenomenon. When I mentioned Fatty, I shook my head: The situation we have experienced is much more complicated than yours. How can we pay attention to this? Who are you listening to? of?
It was mentioned in the TV series.
You believe that stuff. He shook his head, and suddenly he saw Menyou Ping raised his head, frowned, and looked at me.
Menyouping didn't listen to us since just now. I thought he was still thinking about the relief, so I said to him: Don't think about it. The soldiers will block it, and the water will cover it. Let's go and take a closer look at the relief later. Find other clues, and now you can rest peacefully.”
Before I finished speaking, he suddenly said: Did you see a dark figure rummaging through the backpack?
I was startled by him and nodded: It's very blurry. I didn't see it clearly. I don't know if it's an illusion, but it's definitely not the two of you.
Menyouping suddenly stood up and said to me, That's Wen Jin.
