Four large bags were placed in two deep pits.
Then, high-concentration vodka was poured inside.
A torch was set to ignite them.
The wood stored by the tribe was also thrown in.
The bags were burned away.
Under the blistering flas, the snakes inside began to writhe.
Because the pits were deep enough, crawling out was very difficult.
"Siying, you guys go back and continue."
"Got it."
Sui Qiang and Yu Siying, along with two others, went back.
Lin Yi, Zhao Yunhu, and Shao Jianfeng stayed here to keep watch.
The whole process lasted about two hours.
The snakes inside were charred black.
And a strong aroma wafted from within.
Shao Jianfeng stirred with a stick, finding all the snakes dead.
At this mont.
Sui Qiang and the four others climbed up from inside.
This ti, obviously, there were fewer of them.
Only about half as many as before.
"You collected this much in just two hours?"
Yu Siying nodded.
"There should be more inside, but definitely not many."
"Let’s go in and take a look."
Familiar with the process, everyone returned to the stone gate.
Lin Yi activated the chanism above.
Then signaled for everyone to step back.
A few minutes later, a large snake poked its head out, slowly moving toward the outside.
When it slithered in front of them.
One person struck it with a knife, chopping it into several pieces.
This situation continued.
Every few minutes, a snake crawled out from inside.
This showed that there weren’t many snakes left inside.
"Pour so more wine inside."
Sui Qiang and Zhang Chaoyue supported Yu Siying and Luo Qi.
The two won, holding bottles of alcohol, poured it in.
They poured in a total of ten cases before stopping.
The two won held flashlights, shining them inside.
Gag—
Yu Siying began to retch.
"Sister Ying isn’t experiencing morning sickness, is she?" Zhang Chaoyue joked.
"If Brother Qiang doesn’t hit you, you’ll probably feel uncomfortable." Luo Qi said:
"There are many human skeletons inside, and half-eaten corpses, the scene is quite disgusting."
Because, in the group, she handles dical aspects.
Luo Qi’s tolerance was slightly stronger than the others.
"As I expected."
"How many snakes are left inside?"
"About a dozen, they’re not small, but they’re already paralyzed, the danger is considerably reduced."
Lin Yi nodded.
"Co on down."
Yu Siying and Luo Qi climbed down.
Waiting for Lin Yi to arrange the next step of the action plan.
Wearing leather gloves, Lin Yi climbed up.
Stooping, he prepared to crawl inside.
"You guys wait here, without my orders, no one cos up."
"You can’t just let yourself take the lead whenever there’s trouble, we’re part of the sa team." Luo Qi said.
"That’s an order."
After leaving those words, Lin Yi jumped down.
"Help us up."
Yu Siying and Luo Qi were dragged up again.
But with Lin Yi’s prior orders.
They didn’t dare go in, only able to observe the situation inside.
If Lin Yi encountered danger, it wouldn’t be too late to enter then.
After climbing over the stone gate.
Lin Yi used a flashlight to illuminate the surroundings.
Luo Qi and Xiao Bing also held flashlights, casting light inwards.
The high concentration of alcohol mixed with the decaying corpses.
Produced an extrely unpleasant sll.
Even Lin Yi couldn’t help wanting to vomit.
Before Lin Yi could make other moves.
In a corner, he saw a giant python.
Its body was thicker than his waist, at least seventeen or eighteen ters long.
He hadn’t spotted it before because it was hidden in the corner of the secret chamber.
Although it was a colossal creature, having undergone the trials on Tilia Island,
A creature of this level couldn’t scare Lin Yi anymore.
"Boss, do you need our help?"
"No need, just stay up there."
Under the effect of high-concentration vodka,
The giant python’s sense of sll seed to be less acute.
Lin Yi cautiously maneuvered to its back.
Found the vital spot.
Fiercely stabbed in with a dagger!
And sliced open a long gash!
Successfully striking, Lin Yi retreated tactically.
The giant python sensed the pain and writhed continuously on the ground.
Lin Yi kept searching for an opportunity, trying to launch a second attack.
Soon!
Lin Yi found an opening.
Dual-wielding daggers, he slashed twice at the snake’s head.
Blood spattered out, spraying onto Lin Yi’s face.
The giant python’s body crazily twisted on the ground.
Seemingly nacing, but its threat level was greatly reduced.
Lin Yi delivered a few more blows, and after over half an hour of struggling, the giant python finally died.
Taking a flashlight, Lin Yi shined it around other areas.
Spotted a dozen more snakes.
These snakes seed to possess intelligence.
Upon seeing Lin Yi, they all curled up in the corner, none daring to show their fangs.
But Lin Yi gave them no chance.
Wielding the knife, he finished them off one by one, clearing all potential threats.
"Everyone co in."
Yu Siying and Luo Qi were the first to climb over the wall.
Followed by Sui Qiang and the others.
After entering, they instinctively covered their noses.
Even though they’re part of the Central Guards Brigade, having gone through various training,
They still couldn’t bear the stench.
"Found it! There’s a chanism here!"
Upon entering, Shao Jianfeng stood beside the stone gate.
Next to it was a groove.
Inside was a stone pillar as thick as an arm.
Like a lock, it tightly secured the stone door.
Testingly pulling it out, Sui Qiang stood beside, attempting to push the stone door.
Despite so difficulty, it still slowly opened.
"There’s a similar chanism on this side."
Luo Qi stood on the other side and used the sa thod to open the door.
With this, the secret chamber was completely opened, revealed to everyone.
"Search thoroughly, see if there’s any information we can use."
"Got it."
The team dispersed, starting to inspect around the secret chamber.
"Lin Bro, there are so holes around the bricks, but they’re not large, about as thick as my neck."
"I probably guessed right, these holes are passages for the snakes."
"If that’s the case, other creatures should be able to crawl in too."
Luo Qi looked around.
"But aside from snakes, there’s nothing else here."
"Even if there was, it would have been eaten; after the snakes took over, other animals wouldn’t dare co."
"So that’s the case."
"What are the wall paintings about?"
"Most relate to sacrificial rituals."
Yu Siying said:
"But I feel sothing’s off."
"Share your thoughts."
"Ancient sacrifices were typically made with statues, why did the Mayans do it this way?"
Yu Siying voiced her doubts.
Which prompted others to think.
"Even if they ca from the island, facing so many snakes, it’s unlikely they could handle it."
"I think this matter might relate to theology."
Zhao Yunhu said:
"In their view, snakes are incarnations of deities, and they want to use these snakes to achieve their aims."
