114 Modern civilization and primitive ignorance

At eleven o'clock the next morning, while Principal Wolf was still sound asleep, Village Chief Wang had already slammed the door of his room. 【 】

"Old Wang, what's the matter? You deliberately don't let me sleep well, don't you?" Opening the door, Principal Wolf complained lazily while yawning.

"Oh, you slacker, don't you want to see what time it is?" Village Chief Wang scolded with a smile.Lang Mo looked at his watch, scratched the back of his head and grinned, "Sorry, I was too tired last night!"

Indeed, after Alan came last night, he and Alan had tossed and tossed so many times, in order to punish Alan for the lie of "the great aunt is here".

"Too tired? A young boy, he said he was tired at a young age. Didn't you just run two laps last night, and I ran there with you. I didn't say tired, but you said tired, really, what? Morality? Get up quickly, let's go to eat, Director Liao is bringing three experts from the provincial capital, and a large group of armed police with guys are waiting for us to eat!" Village Chief Wang said excitedly.

Hearing that Liao Mu came with the armed police, Principal Lang immediately cheered up: "This wood, it would be great if we came back last night, otherwise how could we be so ashamed last night?" Fan, braved the drizzle that was still falling, and went to Alan excitedly together with Village Chief Wang.

"Is Uncle Yang in the restaurant?" Principal Wolf thought of Yang Jiao on the way.

"Hey, this dead old Yang who is like a mother-in-law, he said that there are too many people and he doesn't want to socialize, so he won't come." Village Chief Wang complained.

As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the restaurant, Principal Wolf saw three cars parked at the door, a brand new Mercedes-Benz, a twelve-seat police car, and a [-]% new Jiefang truck. , he has seen a lot.What he paid attention to was the liberation car.Because the compartment of this truck is not an ordinary compartment.This is an oversized iron cage. The steel bars of the iron cage are at least two centimeters thick. At the joints of these steel bars, there are conspicuous new marks that were burnt black during welding. It is obvious that this iron cage was put together improvised.

"What are they going to do?" Principal Lang tilted his head and asked Village Chief Wang.

"Not sure, I only know that those experts want to capture the python and study it." Village Chief Wang replied looking at the iron cage.

"Catch it back? A joke! How do you catch such a fierce thing? It seems that the heads of those experts have also been flooded." Principal Lang walked into the restaurant while talking.

As soon as he entered the door, Liao Mu saw him, raised his hand and greeted him with a smile: "Principal Lang, here and there! I am very lucky to see you standing here alive. You were not scared out of your wits last night, right? Haha hehe....."

It seems that Village Chief Wang has already told people like Liao Mu about all his scandals.

Liao Mu brought a total of ten people, six of whom were young armed policemen in uniform with serious faces.Each of them carried a shiny black military submachine gun on their backs, and the six of them sat silently drinking tea.The four people sitting with Liao Mu are two people in their fifties, with imaginative temperament, fair skin, wearing glasses, and thin hair, but neatly combed. They are dressed in ordinary clothes, all of them are old-fashioned gray Chinese tunic suits , but clean and tidy, giving the impression of a scholar at first glance.The biggest difference between the two is that one is very thin, so thin that even the purple blood vessels on his forehead can be seen, his face is turned, and he doesn't have much expression.It can be seen that he is not a person who likes to talk.The other was just the opposite, very fat.But the fat is very moderate, without that very bloated feeling.His face was kind and kind, always smiling.

"Come on, let me introduce, this is Professor Pan from the Provincial Institute of Zoology." Liao Mu pointed to the smiling scholar. "This is Professor Chen, an archaeologist from the Provincial Museum." Liao Mu said to the thin scholar again.Principal Lang can understand Professor Pan's arrival. After all, this is what he does for a living, but why does Professor Chen, an archaeologist, come here?What was placed in front of them was not a boa constrictor fossil, but a living big guy that could swallow people!For this reason, Principal Wolf was quite puzzled, but it was difficult to ask.

After President Lang met the two experts, Liao Mu introduced the other two people he brought, one named Du Tianyao, wearing a set of dark blue casual clothes, the captain of the Sixth Division of the Third Division of the Provincial Armed Police Corps, This is a very burly and handsome young man, especially his pair of sharp eyes, which are shining like a cheetah, and there seems to be a little blue in the light, which seems to be different from the eyes of normal people. But from the outside, he doesn't look like a mixed race, he is very unique.

The last one is about the same age as Liao Mu.Slender, like a telegraph pole, with dark skin, small eyes, pointed mouth, thin mouth, and a neat ponytail on the back of his head, but he is very well dressed, an Apple brand suit, a pair of spotlessly clean can When the mirror looks at the leather shoes, at first glance.It's a bit like an artist or a music conductor, but his skin is too dark, as black as an African native, it's really hard to get hooked with an artist.

"This is Mr. Dam, from Malaysia. His specialty is catching snakes. The snakes he catches in his life may not even fit in a ship. No matter how big or small a snake is, as long as you encounter him, you must obey him. He is an out-and-out master snake catcher!" Liao Mu solemnly introduced this half-ghost foreigner to Principal Lang.

'Dum?Saddam? Principal Wolf suddenly popped out the following three words.That was the president of Iraq who was sentenced to be hanged by the Yankees.But the person in front of him is obviously not the president of Iraq, otherwise, Principal Wolf might have trembled already.

"Hello, Principal Wolf!" Dam warmly stretched out his big fleshless hand. Naturally, Principal Wolf couldn't be rude, and quickly held his hand together.

"Mr. Dam, you speak Chinese very well." Principal Wolf greeted with a smile.

"You're welcome, Principal Wolf. In fact, not only English and Malay are fluent in our place, but some of them can also speak Cantonese and Mandarin. And I am one of them." After Damu finished speaking, he looked a little smug.

"Oh, so that's the case. Mr. Damu has traveled thousands of miles, why did he come here..." Principal Wolf asked puzzled.

"Ah, that's right. Mr. Dam is not only a master at catching snakes, but also an expert in animal research. This time he brought people to the Provincial Institute of Zoology for an exchange and discussion, and it just happened to happen. He heard that Fenghua Village actually appeared I found such a big snake, so he insisted on coming to see it, so I invited him here." Professor Pan explained on the side.

"I'm very sorry, Principal Wolf, I'm also interested, you won't laugh at me, will you?" Damm asked with a smile.

"Where, where, how?" President Wolf hurriedly replied, but even though he said so, he said in his heart: "What the hell, why do we need you, a foreign nigger, to come and tell me what to do? Is there no such thing as a master at catching snakes in China? ?”

After everyone got to know each other, Alan's meal was served.Due to the several days of rain, the business of the restaurant was greatly affected, so at the moment, there were no customers in the restaurant except those brought by Liao Mu.

After drinking for three rounds, Liao Mu stood up and said, "Everyone, everyone already knows about that python. Originally, Captain Du and I discussed it and simply shot it dead. It's over, but now the situation has changed. Provincial Animal Research Institute After the leader of the institute heard the news, he specified that the big snake must be captured alive. At present, what we have to do is to catch the big snake. First, it will solve the great harm that has been in Fenghua Village for many years. As the research material of the Institute of Zoology, this can be said to kill two birds with one stone! Here, with the help of experts from Damm, I firmly believe that the big snake will be in our cage sooner or later. I propose that everyone raise a bowl and wish us this time Your snake-catching plan was a success!"

Everyone raised their bowls, but only one person hesitated, holding a wine bowl, thoughtful.Principal Wolf saw that it was Professor Chen.

Seeing this, everyone had to put down their wine bowls.

"Professor Chen, do you have something to say, say it, let everyone hear what you mean." Liao Mu asked patiently from the side.

"Everyone, I'm sorry, I think we should not be too optimistic. According to the records in foreign magazines, some colleagues discovered the world's largest boa constrictor fossil in Colombia. This boa constrictor is 13 meters long. As long as a bus, it can swallow a cow. This kind of snake lived in the tropical rainforest of northeastern Colombia 5800 million to 6000 million years ago. By now, it should be said that such a huge python should have long since existed. However, according to Director Liao's description, the snake seems to be bigger and longer than the fossil python. Survived in the environment. Then it has been multiplying until now. Because in reality, there is no such a big python, if it is real, it is a living fossil, and its value is inestimable!"

"What's the problem with this? It's precious, but what does it have to do with us catching snakes?" Damm asked a little strangely.

"Oh, my problem is that a boa constrictor of this size is difficult to control on its own, but it also has a hard armor on it. This makes it even more difficult. But we have to capture him alive, which is Very dangerous." After speaking, it pulled out the scale from the big snake.

Dam took the scale, turned it over, looked at it carefully, and said: "It doesn't matter, no matter how hard its armor is. I still have a way to deal with it!"

"Mr. Dam, I think it's better for us to be more cautious. If it's what Professor Chen said, then we don't know much about this behemoth, such as its aggressiveness, IQ, and living habits. Wait. We don’t understand this snake. I’ve heard of it before. A long time ago, the province sent people to deal with it and tried to smash it to pieces, but the results were not satisfactory, and several comrades were seriously injured. Now, we still have to capture it, and it is even more difficult. Therefore, I personally think that we should learn more and make some preparations before planning."

After hearing this, Dam didn't take it seriously. He said, "Say one thousand, say ten thousand. How can I say it? It's just a snake, not a person. So, don't worry, everyone. Just follow my command when the time comes."

"Mr. Dam is right, don't worry too much, catch this thing as soon as possible, so that it will not come out to endanger the neighbors at any time, I firmly support Mr. Dam's opinion, catch it! Principal Wolf, Village Chief Wang , What do you think?" From Liao Mu's standpoint, he certainly hoped to catch the snake on the spot as soon as possible.

Of course, Village Chief Wang and Principal Wolf hoped to do this, and if they caught the big snake, they could avenge themselves. What's more, Principal Wolf was chased by the snake twice in one day, so of course he wanted to catch it and relieve him. Relieve the stuffiness in your heart.Although the principal does not believe that Nadam can catch the big snake, but the one who catches the snake is not his wolf principal. If the big snake starts to chase people, it will be chasing the master snake catcher in front of him. What does it have to do with me? ?It's better to watch the excitement, it's also a pleasure!

Just as Village Chief Wang was about to speak, a group of people ran into the restaurant.Principal Wolf saw that this man was Xiao Dunzi.He only heard him shout: "Village chief, village chief, go to the mountain pass to see! Lao Mai invited three Taoist priests and set up an altar there, saying that he would worship the snake fairy!"

Xiao Dunzi's words made everyone present dumbfounded, except of course Village Chief Wang, because he had seen such things many times before, and he was not surprised.He just said helplessly: "Damn old thing, it's starting to ruin everyone's things again, damn it!" "

"How do they worship the snake fairy? Is the snake fairy they worship the python you saw?" Damu asked.

Village Chief Wang nodded slightly.

"Then why didn't you stop them? You are the village head?" Dam was very surprised.

"Mr. Dam, some things are very complicated and cannot be explained clearly at once, but this time, I must stop them from doing so. Everyone, please sit down first. Captain Du, Village Chief Wang and I will take people over to have a look. "Liao Mu took the words of Village Chief Wang from the side.

"Professor Chen said with a smile: "If you want to go, let's go together, and let us feel the atmosphere of snake sacrifice.To be honest, I have never seen what this sacrificial snake looks like. "

His proposal was immediately approved by Professor Pan and Dam.

So, a group of people, without finishing their meal, braved the drizzle and rushed to the mountain pass.
