826. 825. Digged Into The Snake's Nest (4/5)

Chapter 826 825. Digging into the Snake's Nest (45)

In the past, digging a mine was really 'digging', requiring the use of rock crushers, rotary cutters, excavators, etc., and the need to forcibly dig holes in the rock formation.

This time it was easier, they didn't have to work so hard, first they used the excavator to take out the backfilled gravel like digging, and when the length of the digging arm of the machine was not enough, they replaced it with a shovel.

Digging gravel is still tiring, but it is much easier and safer than digging holes in rock formations. Just look at the terrain, dig out all the gravel, and be careful not to be buried by the gravel.

In just half a day, the mine was almost cleared out, and a wide mine with a diameter of about two meters appeared in front of them.

After lunch, Li Du went back to the mine to prepare for work. After entering, he was about to make a move when suddenly Brother Wolf grabbed him.

"What's wrong?" he asked strangely.

Brother Wolf stared ahead and said, "Snake."

Li Du took a careful look with his headlamp, and it was true that a snake was coming out of the gap in the gravel.

Brother Wolf's eyes were sharper than his. He didn't notice the snake at all and almost won the bid.

There are too many reptiles in Australia. There are a total of 140 species of land snakes and 32 species of water snakes. Among them, 100 species are poisonous, and more than ten species are very poisonous. They almost die when bitten.

And there are not only many types of snakes here, but also a large number.

Recently, Li Du also saw a news that a girl in Canberra felt that the front of her shoes were soft when she was running. After she finished running, she took off her shoes and saw that there was a small snake in it, but it was crushed to death by her toes...

He used to be terrified of snakes, limp reptiles that always sparked deep fears in him.

But after spending some time in Australia, he was immune to this stuff. Snakes are not that scary, as long as you don't provoke them, they are much gentler than mosquitoes.

The back of this snake is taupe, with black stripes on it, and its abdomen is orange-red. It swims lightly and silently. It is the red-bellied black snake that Brother Wolf once used to deal with Blatche.

"How to deal with it?" Li Du asked carefully.

Although the red-bellied black snake did not kill anyone, it was a famous poisonous snake. If it was bitten, it would be very troublesome if it could not be rescued in time in the mine environment.

Brother Wolf said, "Just kill him."

There are too many poisonous snakes in Australia. The government's countermeasure is that as long as the snake does not hinder people, then leave it alone and everyone will live in peace.

But if poisonous snakes hinder people's lives or even lives, it's best to find a way to kill them.

Li Du picked up a rock and was about to throw it out. Brother Lang shook his head to stop him, then squatted down very carefully and slowly, and continued to stretch out his hand very carefully and slowly.

When he got close to the red-bellied black snake, Brother Wolf suddenly sped up his movements and pinched the neck behind the poisonous snake's head.

The red-bellied black snake reacted quickly. After being caught, it shrank its body and wrapped it around his arm.

Brother Wolf shook his arm vigorously to shake its body off. After a few strokes, the snake was dizzy. At this time, Brother Wolf threw it to the ground, smashed its head with his tongue, and transported it together with the crushed ore. ground.

This was just a small episode in the excavation of the mine, the two didn't care and continued to work.

However, the appearance of the red-bellied black snake reminded Li Du that they were digging underground in the dangerous Australia, and there was no telling when the poisonous snake would appear.

So he called Ah Miao down and asked Ah Miao to accompany him as an escort.

Facts proved that his prudence was necessary. Just when they pushed forward another half meter, Ah Meow, who was lying lazily on the ore, suddenly rushed forward.

Its attack speed was very fast, a trace flashed by, and it dragged a snake from one side of the mine to the other.

This snake is about one meter long, and its appearance is slightly similar to the red-bellied black snake that appeared earlier. It also has a gray-black back and red belly, but the color of this snake's belly is more reddish-yellow.

"Red-bellied Yiao snake." Brother Lang frowned.

Compared with the red-bellied black snake, the red-bellied Iao snake is much more poisonous.

After encountering two poisonous snakes in a row, Li Du hesitated a little, and said, "Why are there so many snakes in this mine?"

Sophie, who was helping from above, saw another snake brought up by the conveyor, and she became worried, and said through the intercom: "Do you want me to go down to help? I am carrying poisonous snake serum now."

Li Du said: "No problem, you don't need to come down, maybe it's just a coincidence."

To be on the safe side, he released the small flying insects and entered the rubble pile to check the situation.

As soon as the little flying insect flew in, the scene he saw immediately made his scalp tingle.

There are still several snakes in the rubble pile, and the closer to the end of the mine, the more snakes appear.

Ah Miao jumped back from him, swiped her claws, and pulled a snake off the roof of the mine.

Another red-bellied Yiao snake...

Li Du controlled the little flying insects to fly into the rock layers above his head to see. There are holes and gaps between these rock layers, and many snakes are appearing in them now.

Without hesitation, he beckoned and said, "Brother Wolf, let's go, there are too many poisonous snakes here."

Just as he said this, another snake came out of the gap.

Brother Wolf pulled out a dagger from his waist and threw it out with a flick of his hand. The tip of the knife inserted into the snake's head and nailed it into the gap, blocking the gap.

The two brought Meow back to the ground. Godzilla thought it was his turn to go down, so he took off his shirt and prepared to go down the well.

Li Du stopped him and said angrily, "What are you doing?"

Godzilla said as a matter of course: "Work."

Li Du said: "The bottom is full of snakes. I don't know what's going on. There are a lot of snakes coming out. How are you going to work? Are you looking for death?"

Godzilla thought for a while and asked, "Can they be eaten?"

This question made Li Du wonder whether to cry or laugh, what time is it, and he still wants to eat? !

After hearing what they said, Luguan interjected: "Boss, you killed two snakes just now, could it be that the snakes came back for revenge?"

Li Du said angrily: "I'm serious, hurry up and get some snake repelling powder, and drive these snakes away."

Sophie next to him suddenly asked: "We noticed before that the mine was dug shorter than other mines. Why is this happening? Did something go wrong at that time?"

Li Du had a phone number from Mim, the former owner of the mine, and he called afterward. After connecting, he introduced the situation of the mine, and asked, "A lot of snakes appeared, what's going on?"

From the moment he mentioned the mine, Mim's reaction was a bit awkward.

After hearing his question, Mim muttered, "How did you dig the backfilled mine?"

Li Du said vaguely: "I want to continue digging along your mine to see if I can find gems. What's the matter with this mine? Is there a snake's nest inside?"
