Chapter 80: Fishing Enforcement
"This should be the trace of a snake... Thirty centimeters wide, such a thick snake, it must be ten meters long, right?
Could it be the same snake that I noticed in the habitat before?"
Seeing this scene, Cang Nian was shocked.
Half a month ago, before Tiger Dad and the others were captured by poachers, Cang Nian saw a trace that was obviously left by a snake.
However, the snake path he saw that time was only ten centimeters wide. Although it was large, it was not to the point of being shocking.
But now this snake path is thirty centimeters wide, it is definitely an evolved giant snake!
And, what's more terrifying is that if this snake is the same as the previous one.
That means that this snake has followed me all the way from my family's original habitat for hundreds of kilometers!
And in the process, it may have picked up the prey that I killed but couldn't eat in order to brush my skill proficiency.
Or maybe it hunted other prey by itself.
In short, this snake has grown from ten centimeters thick to thirty centimeters thick.
This is a huge threat!
Moreover, it was a threat that targeted his family!
You know, when Cang Nian and his family migrated here, they did not walk in a straight line, but walked wherever it was convenient to walk and wherever the environment was good.
So, why did this snake appear in his family's new habitat?
On the way?
Absolutely impossible!
It must have followed his family all the way to get here!
What is its purpose?
Cang Nian has never been reluctant to speculate the worst possible situation.
Perhaps, when this snake was still relatively weak, it just picked up the food that fell on the migration path of Cang Nian's family.
But since it has grown so big, his family has been in this new habitat for a while, and it has not left yet...
It is undoubtedly a bad idea for his family!
The muscles and skin of snakes are very flexible.
Thirty centimeters wide, it looks less than half the thickness of Tiger Dad's unicorn arm.
But the snake has excellent ductility. When swallowing prey, it can eat food that is more than three times wider than its own diameter!
Of course, he couldn't eat Tiger Dad, but he could eat himself and Tiger Brother!
Aw~?
At this time, Tiger Brother saw Cang Nian stopped in place and didn't move, so he came over, tilted his head curiously, and looked at the ground where Cang Nian's eyes were.
Tiger Dad also came over at this moment to see if Cang Nian had found anything.
If it was Tiger Brother who stopped halfway while patrolling the territory, Tiger Dad would think he was going to be lazy.
But since it was Cang Nian, Tiger Dad would not worry at all.
Cang Nian has been self-disciplined since he was a child, and he is not comparable to Tiger Brother, a bad boy.
"Aww~!"
Seeing that Tiger Dad and Tiger Brother came over, Cang Nian told his discovery again.
After listening to Cang Nian's story, Tiger Brother was confused.
It had never seen a snake.
In Tiger Brother's little head, animals without legs, aren't they disabled?
How can they walk without legs?
That kind of animal must be very pitiful, without legs, unable to run, unable to catch prey, and can only starve, so it follows behind his family and picks up the prey that his brother doesn't want...
Tiger brother thought so.
Compared with Tiger brother who was thinking wildly, Tiger father was more experienced.
After listening to Cang Nian's description, Tiger father immediately knew that there was a very large snake!
Most animals have a natural fear of snakes. This is a warning engraved in their genes under long-term survival evolution.
Especially in the snowy mountains of Northeast China, once you encounter a snake, most of them are poisonous!
When Tiger father was a sub-adult, he was bitten by a snake, but the poison of that snake was not strong. It paralyzed half of his body for a long time and failed to kill it.
But such a weird and powerful method still left Tiger father with an indelible memory.
In Tiger father's eyes, snakes are extremely dangerous!
Although they are not huge in size, the toxicity that ignores the size difference is very scary!
And the snake path discovered by Cang Nian is so wide, it must be a big snake!
Although Tiger Dad had never seen such a big snake, since he could grow a lot after adulthood and become so big, the boar could also grow to a huge size of more than one ton, so it was not difficult to understand that the snake would grow bigger.
Aww~!
Immediately, Tiger Dad roared at Cang Nian.
No more patrolling the territory!
We must find that snake!
Tiger Dad knew very well the danger of snakes and did not want such a creature to hide in his family's territory and cause harm to his family at any time!
If it was a poisonous snake, he might be able to rely on his huge body and strong physical fitness to bear it.
But if it was a tiger cub like Cang Nian and Tiger Brother, if they were bitten, they might just have to wait for death!
Cang Nian nodded in agreement with Tiger Dad's concerns.
"How to find this snake? There is no special smell left around. Aren't poisonous snakes said to be very smelly?
If we rely on the snake path left behind to find it, I don't know when we will find it.
Let me think about it... Got it!"
Since he wanted to catch the snake, Cang Nian started to think.
Immediately, a solution popped up in his mind.
"Ah~!"
Cang Nian first shouted at Tiger Dad and Tiger Brother, and then left quickly.
You stay here, don't move!
Seeing this, Tiger Dad and Tiger Brother were quite puzzled, but they still stayed where they were.
After a while, Cang Nian came back.
When he came back, he still had a fresh marmot corpse in his mouth.
The small herbivores in the Northeast Snow Ridge are not as numerous as the large herbivores, only pheasants, hares, and marmots.
Seeing this, Tiger Dad's eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately understood Cang Nian's idea!
That is fishing!
Since the snake likes to follow Cang Nian and pick up the prey thrown away by Cang Nian, it will surely not refuse a fresh marmot!
Immediately, Cang Nian found a relatively sturdy tree and placed the marmot corpse in a relatively open place under the tree.
"Ah~!"
After doing this, Cang Nian shouted to Tiger Dad and Tiger Brother.
Climb the tree!
So, one big and two small, three tigers climbed up the tree.
The family of three did not climb too high, but stopped after climbing about five meters to observe.
In this way, they waited quietly for nearly half an hour.
Ouch...
At this time, there was a noise from the bushes nearby, and Cang Nian immediately focused his attention there.
But then, a familiar figure appeared in Cang Nian's field of vision.
It was a big cat with patterns and spots, thick hair, pointed ears, a round face, and a short tail.
It was one of the two lynxes found when patrolling the territory yesterday!
It walked towards the dead groundhog cautiously like a thief, and its big ears shook left and right, as if it was on guard against something.
