Chapter 78: The Axe Breaks the Snake's Tail

A big python, the size of a bucket, came from somewhere and was sleeping in the ditch. A woman was lying on the back of the big python with a child in her arms and fainted.

If this alarmed the python, with the power of the python, we would definitely be able to swallow us alive!

I immediately signaled Li Mazi to turn off the tractor's engine.

At the same time, I told the two of them not to say a word and stay there. I went to say hello to Uncle Fourth, so as not to bring a large group of people to wake up the python.

I was glad that I stopped my fourth uncle halfway, because I brought a large group of Dai youths, and the noise was very loud.

When I told the fourth uncle the big python as thick as a bucket, the fourth uncle was so angry that he was itchy: "It's that thing that is causing trouble again!"

I heard the fourth uncle's tone and seemed to know the big python. I asked the fourth uncle about the origin of the snake.

The fourth uncle asked all the Dai youths behind him to stay. He went with me alone to the scene of the car accident, explaining to me about the big python while walking.

It turns out that the python is a pet raised by the "roadblocking ghost". Every time the roadblocking ghost appears, the python will definitely appear. It will wait until the roadblocking ghost kills people before swallowing the corpse.

Moreover, this python is very strange. Even if it encounters a dying injured person, it will not hurt the other party and only eat people to death.

I asked my fourth uncle, didn’t you say that no one had ever died on this road? How did he know that the python was a human eater?

The fourth uncle said coldly: "A big python appears in this situation, not to eat the corpse, why?"

We ran back soon, and the python was still lying in the ditch and sleeping, while the woman and the child were still in a coma.

Uncle Fourth pulled out an axe from his waist and was about to jump into the ditch. I immediately stopped him and said it was not safe, right? After all, the python was so thick, it must be very powerful.

Uncle Fourth waved his hand and told me to rest assured that this python is afraid of living people. The more fierce you are, the more it is afraid of you.

I was a little surprised and could only let my fourth uncle go down.

Uncle Fourth approached the python bit by bit. Although it made a lot of noise, the python seemed to be unable to hear it and still remained motionless.

The python seemed to be on the verge of peeling, with a lot of white snake skin on its body, which was very disgusting.

It is said that snakes are the hungryest when they peel off. I am really worried that the python will suddenly wake up, open its bloody mouth, and swallow it in one bite.

The brave fourth uncle quickly picked up the woman and the child and handed it to us.

However, he did not climb into the ditch, but stared at the python with anger on his face, raised his axe, and prepared to chop off the python's head.

My heart was in my throat. I was already grateful if the python didn't cause trouble for us. Now the fourth uncle is actually ready to take the initiative to attack!

I subconsciously stopped my fourth uncle, but the fourth uncle ignored me and swung the axe hard.

The sharp axe blade soon left a deep wound on the python's body, and a lot of white juice spurted out from the wound.

The python suddenly woke up, hissing and spitting out a long snake letter. When it twisted, the huge snake head was raised high.

The fourth uncle laughed wildly, pulled out his axe and chopped it on the python's head again.

This axe is accurate and ruthless. If it is cut firmly, it will probably be able to split the python's head in half.

The python was not easy to provoke, so he quickly 'stooped' his head towards Uncle Fourth.

The speed is as fast as lightning!

Uncle Fourth's body suddenly flew backwards and fell heavily into the ditch.

The python's eyes swept across us, probably because he was afraid that there were too many people in us, so he turned around and wanted to escape.

The fourth uncle refused to give in and stood up with the pain all over his body, hugged the python's tail, and roared: "What are you still standing there? Come up and kill it..."

I immediately reacted.

Although I didn't want to hurt this python, the other party was our enemy after all, so I was not ruthless. I jumped into the ditch, picked up the axe, and rushed to my second uncle quickly, and chopped the python's tail with force.

In an instant, the python's tail was cut off by me.

The python's body twisted in pain. Before my fourth uncle and I took advantage of the victory, we had already quickly climbed into the night and disappeared.

The fourth uncle patted my shoulder with relief: "Good boy, you are brave enough. You are the most honorable guest of our Dai people!"

I looked at my uncle with a worried look: "Uncle Fourth, will this python come back to take revenge? I think we should be careful these days."

The fourth uncle smiled and said, "Don't worry! It will definitely not dare to come out in the future. We will cut off its tail and it will have to keep it for several months."

I nodded thoughtfully.

We immediately carried Brother Yanliang's family onto the tractor and asked the second uncle to drive the tractor back first to find a doctor in the village to treat him.

Because the tractor had no seats, Yin Xinyue and I had to run back.

I looked at the dark forest nearby with awe and asked Yin Xinyue: "When you were a child, you should have encountered snakes often."

Yin Xinyue nodded.

"Have you ever seen such a python that only eats dead people?" I asked.

Yin Xinyue shook her head: "I haven't seen it before. Pythons are cold-blooded animals, especially like to swallow alive, so this python is really strange..."

I frowned and said, "Actually have you ever thought that if it weren't for that big python, the woman and the child would probably have died."

Yin Xinyue looked at me in surprise: "How do you know?"

"Look at the water in the ditch," I said, "If women and children fall into the ditch in a coma, they will definitely be drowned alive."

"But the big python made meat pads for the two of them, and they saved their lives."

Yin Xinyue stared at the river ditch quietly and looked at me in confusion: "Brother Zhang, are you trying to say that this big python does not want to eat people, but wants to save people?"

I nodded.

Yin Xinyue laughed in silence: "Stop joking, have you heard that pythons can save people? This big python has entered the village many times to harm the poultry raised by the villagers, and even hurt the villagers. How could it be so kind to go to save people?"

I said forget it, who knows what the python was thinking, let’s talk about it when we go back.

On the way back, Yin Xinyue repeatedly told me that I must be careful these days and be careful, and that I must let my fourth uncle send it in person when I leave. The python is a cold-blooded animal that holds revenge. I cut off its tail and it will definitely not let me go.

What else Yin Xinyue said, I didn't listen because I was thinking about this big python and the roadblocking ghost.

The roadblocking ghost harms people, but the python saves people. Could it be that the roadblocking ghost and this python are natural enemies?

I actually really want to help the Dai people and find out this matter clearly.
