Chapter 22 Card Drops
"elder brother."

Qin Ziwu strode over, a smile on his face.

Qin Ziwen gave his younger brother a look, and Qin Ziwu obediently stood behind him, secretly making a gesture to his older brother: "It's all hung up, the usual place."

Qin Ziwen nodded slightly, "I trust you to handle things."

Receiving his elder brother's praise, Qin Ziwu grinned, then looked curiously at the group of onlookers in front of him, "What are they doing?"

"The trap is set up, covered with a thin layer of planks and leaves. Now we need to figure out how to lure the crocodiles over. We're currently registering them."

Hearing this, Qin Ziwu became eager to try, "Is everyone here?"

Qin Ziwen raised his chin and gestured over there: "The registration was full long ago. The person who lured the crocodile could get an extra portion of meat, so two people were chosen in the end."

Following his elder brother's gaze, Qin Ziwu saw two young men stretching their muscles.

Then he peered into the trap pit, where the bottom was densely packed with spears, each pointing in a different direction—some straight up, others at an angle.

"Brother, do you think that big crocodile will be attracted here?"

Qin Ziwen said, "Man proposes, God disposes. We have done everything we could."

He naturally hoped to successfully hunt down the male crocodile leader; otherwise, what would have been the point of working so hard for two days?

High-intensity labor can be very energy-consuming and physically demanding.

I've been eating more meat these past two days than I have the previous days.

It's not just him; I believe this is the wish of many people.

Huang Tao repeatedly and earnestly instructed the two: "If it's not a big crocodile that's attracted, run northeast, don't come towards the trap. There's a special team waiting to greet you over there for the small crocodiles. If it's a big crocodile, just keep going straight ahead."

The two chosen nodded, then carried the crocodile's innards to the riverbank.

The crowd gathered around the trap gradually dispersed, concealing their presence.

Meanwhile, three SUVs slowly stopped not far away, waiting for the crocodile to enter the pit before the SUV convoy moved forward to block it.

Everyone was ready and waiting for the crocodile to take the bait.

At the riverbank, the two threw their internal organs into the river, then walked back seven or eight meters, keeping their eyes fixed on the water from a distance.

Beneath the water's surface, a huge dark shadow gradually became clear.

Both of them looked tense.

"Wow!"

The water suddenly broke open, and a giant crocodile, reeking of fish, leaped out of the water. Its thick limbs quickly climbed up the muddy riverbank, and its powerful tail swept across the water, splashing up large waves.

After realizing what had happened, the two quickly ran away.

But the crocodile's burst of speed over short distances exceeded their expectations.

He had only run less than twenty meters when the person in the yellow shirt who was lagging behind was suddenly pushed against the lower back by a tremendous force, and fell face-first to the ground.

"Help me!" he shouted ahead, but his voice abruptly stopped, turning into a scream.

The giant crocodile bit his head and upper body, and then swallowed him whole.

Like a bloody scene in a horror movie, with juices overflowing.

Upon hearing his companion's scream, the man in front felt his legs go weak and nearly fell. He didn't dare look back and continued running forward.

But he soon heard the heavy footsteps of the giant crocodile behind him.

The footsteps grew closer, and he saw the location of the trap ahead. An excited smile appeared on his face, but suddenly he tripped and, not noticing the stone, fell forward.

It’s over.

That was the only thought that remained in his mind.

Damn it, how come there are stones here?

By the time he got up, the giant crocodile had already rushed up behind him and opened its blood-red maw. The bite force of nearly four tons was like that of a giant hydraulic clamp.

"what!"

The bloody scene directly shocked the onlookers.

Even when the crocodile was only a few dozen meters away from the trap, no one dared to approach and lure it away.

The leader crocodile killed two people in quick succession, and his cold and brutal gaze swept around, as if declaring to the group of bipedal beasts that his territory was inviolable!
A moment later, the leader crocodile turned around, preparing to return to the river.

A pebble flew overhead and landed two meters behind the leader crocodile.

Its turning motion paused for a moment, then it turned its head to look at the spot where the pebble had landed. "Bang!"

This time, a pebble landed precisely on the tip of the alpha male crocodile's nose.

The air fell into dead silence.

All eyes were on the "warrior" who threw the stone.

An old man with gray hair, wearing black long-sleeved shirts and trousers, stood in front of the trap, his fists clenched and his eyes wide with anger.

He picked up another stone from the ground and hurled it at the leader crocodile, roaring, "You beast! Come here!"

"Roar!!"

Even though it couldn't understand the language, it could still sense the provocation.

The alpha male crocodile roared angrily, striding forward with its powerful limbs, its heavy footsteps pounding the ground as it charged heavily toward the old man.

The old man glanced at the others around him, grinned, and then resolutely turned and walked onto the trap.

The "shelter" above the trap is made of wooden planks and plastic, and a lighter person can easily walk over it.

"Grandpa, come down quickly! The crocodile is coming!" someone shouted from the side.

But the old man simply shook his head, a relieved smile on his face, and watched expectantly as the crocodile charged toward him.

"Kacha."

The wooden planks beneath their feet groaned under the weight.

"Boom!"

A man and a crocodile fell into a trap.

"Ow~"

The howl of the alpha male crocodile echoed from the trap pit.

Huang Tao urged, "Quickly, drive over and block it."

Zheng Yuan was taken aback: "There's someone in the pit!"

Huang Tao shouted anxiously, "How can a person survive falling down like that! He clearly wants to die, don't waste his efforts."

The crocodile tried to climb out of the trap, but its injuries prevented it from doing so. It struggled several times but failed, its claws gripping the trap walls and scraping off large patches of soil.

The SUV parked nearby roared from its engine and slowly drove toward the pit. The driver's door was open, and just as it was about to fall into the pit, the driver jumped out of the driver's seat. One of the drivers jumped in such a hurry that he accidentally twisted his ankle.

However, all three vehicles were driven into the pit. Although the angle was not perfect, the three vehicles together looked like three large rocks pressing on the back of a crocodile.

as time flows.

The sounds of the crocodiles inside the pit grew fainter and fainter.

People gradually gathered around the pit.

"Hey, don't push me."

"It's too crowded to get through at the front."

"Don't push, you guys in the back."

The shouting and cursing were deafening.

Some people looked and then dispersed. After the crowd had thinned out, Qin Ziwen walked over. The huge male crocodile leader lay quietly at the bottom of the pit, with three vehicles pressing down on its back at different angles. Some of the spears had pierced its body, while others had probably been broken off.

At the bottom of the pit, the male crocodile leader's body was still occasionally twitching.

"Holy crap, that thing's tail twitched just now, could it still be alive?"

"I haven't read many books, so I don't know much about it, but I've heard that this thing is a cold-blooded animal, probably like a snake, and it can still bite people even after it's dead."

"What's the principle behind that?"

"How should I know! Didn't I say I'm illiterate?"

"Wait, what's that?! Look!"

On the back of the male crocodile leader, some points of light were gradually gathering. Under the sunlight, these points of light were particularly noticeable, like white particles with some kind of special effect applied.

White particles intertwined in the void, eventually evolving into a gray card that floated in the air and slowly rotated.

After a brief silence, the onlookers erupted in disbelief.
