Chapter 118: Chapter 115 Side Quest?

On this side, Bi Fang stepped on the snake’s body and used the tip of the knife to slice off the snake’s head, carefully flipping it away with the knife, only then noticing the barrage of comments.

Seeing the screen full of exclamation points, Bi Fang was confused.

What’s the danger here?

He looked around, in the pitch-dark environment, all was silent, nothing there

at all, right?

It wasn’t until someone pointed out that the snake had wrapped around his calf that Bi Fang finally realized what was happening.

“Ah, this, I forgot to mention it just now.”

Bi Fang casually took the snake off his leg, went back to where he had flipped the severed head, and placed the hunting knife under the snake’s jaws, almost instantly, the severed head bit the hunting knife!

Withdrawing the hunting knife from the firmly clamped jaws, Bi Fang showed it to the camera, then moved closer to the light, and the audience was startled to see two drops of something like water beads on the blade.

“This is venom,” Bi Fang explained. “Snakes are different from humans. Their nerve centers are spread throughout their bodies, unlike humans, whose nerve centers are in the brain. Humans stop moving when their heads are gone, but a snake can still have nerve consciousness even after being cut into pieces. At this time, there’s still venom in the fangs, and it’s lethal.

“That’s also why, just now, when I was cutting off the snake’s head, I didn’t touch it with my hands from start to finish. Even if the snake’s head is severed, it can still survive for a dozen minutes to several tens of minutes, and in cold weather, this time can extend to three to four hours until the nerves die.

“There was a very popular news story before. It was about a restaurant employee in Guangdong who slaughtered a Thai King Cobra for a customer. After chopping off the head and putting it aside, he got bitten on the finger when he went to throw the head into the trash more than ten minutes later. He died on the spot from the poison!”

[Fingers subconsciously tighten.]

[The poisoning has already begun.]

[Here it comes, Old Fang’s collection of little stories.]

[Before each departure, how many news stories does Old Fang check? I just

searched, and it’s true, unbelievable.]

“Nonsense, you think I’m making it up?” Bi Fang rolled his eyes, his online friends actually didn’t trust him!

Next time, he’d exclude him from the lottery draw!

After tossing the snake carcass into his backpack, Bi Fang continued on his way.

This was reserved food; Bi Fang didn’t plan to eat it without having found a

water source yet.

Along the way, Bi Fang, carrying a torch, continued to navigate through the valley, occasionally collecting some kindling to put in his backpack; once he left this place, he didn’t know if he would encounter this kind of fire-friendly plant again.

This valley was unexpectedly long. Bi Fang walked for over an hour and still hadn’t reached the end; he even caught a Sparganas along the way, which he killed directly with a rock.

“The valley has two Sparganas; it’s richer than I thought,” Bi Fang said while holding the snake carcass, which was bigger than the previous one.

Without enough geckos or lizards, this kind of food chain wouldn’t hold up here.

It’s very likely that this leads directly to an underground river!

“I thought it would be good just to find some plants, but the harvest is much bigger than I expected. These two snakes are enough for me to eat for two days.”

After stuffing the snakes into his backpack once again, Bi Fang looked up at the moon. From the direction it had risen at the beginning to now shifting significantly, he estimated the time to be just past eleven o’clock at night.

Though it was not so hot now, having been on the move for so long, Bi Fang s tongue felt as if it was about to crack, and his voice began to grow hoarse, speaking much less than before.

He struggled to swallow a mouthful of saliva, sticky as glue.

[Weird, is there really water here? There aren’t even any cacti.]

[There must be, with all these plants, right?]

[Maybe it’s precisely because there’s so much underground water that there

aren’t any cacti.]

[Makes sense!]

After about another half hour of walking, Bi Fang changed to a new torch and leaned on a rock face, feeling unexpectedly slippery and wet.

He withdrew his hand, pinched his fingers, and lifted the torch to examine the rock wall beside him.

An entire face of the huge rock was covered in water droplets!

“There must be a water source nearby!” Bi Fang was certain, or else there wouldn’t be so many water droplets here. He resisted the urge to lick the rock wall and quickly walked forward.

Many viewers who were about to turn off the stream and go to sleep became excited at this sight and decided to wait until Bi Fang found the water source before sleeping.

Just a little longer, then sleep right after.

Sure enough, around the next bend, less than ten meters away, a small pool appeared before everyone’s eyes!

The pool was not small, about six square meters in area, enclosed by the mountain wall. Extending the torch out, Bi Fang could see that the pool was very clear, with ripples occasionally moving across the water’s surface.

[Oh ho! Found a water source!]

[We’ve got water!]

[Watching this makes me chug a big gulp of Coke]

[The guy drinking Coke, aren’t you afraid of cavities.]

“It really is a flowing source of water!” Bi Fang was excited.

The surface of the pond had no streams flowing into it, yet under the light of the fire, one could still see it was very clear, which was impossible!

Unless it was connected to an underground water source, becoming a flowing body of water!

Without a doubt, underground water is the cleanest source of replenishment in the wild.

With that thought, Bi Fang immediately lay by the edge of the pond and began to fill his water bottle. But before it was full, he couldn’t wait any longer and started to take small sips from it.

His glue-like saliva diluted, no longer blocking his cracked throat, the crisp water slid down his smoking esophagus and into his stomach, as cracked as the earth itself.

Glug glug, glug glug.

This jug of water washed away ah the pent-up gloom blocking his vitality.

Bi Fang did not stop there. He refilled his water twice in succession and drank nearly a jug and a half before finally wiping his mouth and letting out a series of burps.

“Ah, that was so satisfying.”

“However, one must drink water in moderation because we lose a lot of electrolytes through sweating. If we only drink water without replenishing salt and other essential elements, we can get water intoxication.”

Bi Fang had never mentioned this to his audience before; he feared that those capitalizing on the situation would be prepared, reducing the effect of debuffs stacked upon them.

Then his quicksand ultimate move wouldn’t be as effective.

[Damn, I wondered why those guys seemed to get more and more off the more they drank. So that’s why!]

[I always thought Master Fang was eyeing them drinking water because he was jealous, never thought it was for this reason.]

[I like this, hehehe]

[The wilderness is really dangerous, not knowing anything and diving headfirst is like courting death!]

Bi Fang refilled his jug with water, then took out a snake corpse from his bag, set up a firewood pile, and prepared to roast and eat it right there.

Now that he had found a water source, it was time to replenish his strength.

He hadn’t eaten anything for a day.

“Intermediate vipers, like this small snake, survive by preying on mice, lizards, and other small creatures, so they have a lot of parasites on their bodies, and many small bugs also live under their scales. That’s why people said 1 should skin the snake.”

Bi Fang used his Hunting Knife to separate the snake skin from the meat, prepared to strip off the entire skin.

But as soon as he started to tear a small part away, the sharply focused camera allowed viewers to see white larvae falling like raindrops, dropping to the ground like granulation tissue, making their skin itch, as if they too had countless tiny bugs burrowing inside!

“Fuck! Sparganosis!”

Even Bi Fang almost threw the snake away, a wave of physical discomfort spread from his scalp to his heels.

If it was that rough on him, let alone the live stream viewers, many eating their late-night snacks nearly threw up.

Enduring the discomfort, Bi Fang completely skinned the snake, impaled it on a stick, and started roasting it.

When subjected to the high heat, the Sparganas in the snake’s body immediately reacted. They frantically tried to escape the flesh, but were quickly killed by the intense heat.

“Phew!” Bi Fang sighed in relief upon seeing the Sparganas dead, and then began explaining what those parasites were, “Those were Sparganosis parasites…”

No one noticed.

in the adjacent pond, the original gentle ripples suddenly grew much larger.

A fin with spikes flashed in the light of the fire, appearing on the surface of the water, but quickly submerged once again.

As if it had never appeared.

It was the emergence of this unknown creature that made Bi Fang pause.

The familiar System voice sounded again.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for triggering the side quest: Underground Cave. Would you like to accept it?]
