Wang Ke jumped up and looked back, but there was nothing.

Standing next to the 'peaked cap', Wang Ke closed his eyes, trying to find his own illusion.

But the more I look for it, the less I can find it.

And what was that reflective thing just now? Wang Ke turned around and searched carefully on the stone. During this search, he really found several small transparent, glass-like stones, about the size of a fingernail.

Wang Ke picked it up and looked at the sunlight carefully. Under the sunlight, these stones faintly refracted the sunlight into red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple.

How can there be any glass on this? The eagles must have picked it up.

The days he spent with Professor Wen gave him an extra level of sensitivity. Without any time to think about it, he picked up the transparent stones and counted six in total. Wang Ke put them on the right breast of his shirt.

pocket and fasten the buttons.

Standing on the top of the eagle's mouth, although it is not high, you can still see clearly.

To the northeast is a barren mountain of about the same size, with several imperial mausoleums with red walls and yellow glazing, and concubine mausoleums with red walls and green glazing.

In the northwest, there are mountains, a sea of ​​forests and grassy beaches, and a road winding in between.

To the southwest, there is a stretch of Gobi desert and hills, which is exactly the road we walked in the morning, and in the distance, there are vague mountains and ridges.

To the southeast, there is a lush and towering mountain ridge.

Gu Maolin now turned the benchmark horizontally and held it flat in front of his chest. This was to allow his comrades who were high up in the east to measure the distance.

Range measurement is to use the scale inside the gun mirror or steering wheel lens to roughly measure the distance from the eagle's beak to them.

Wang Ke looked for this stone slab, and he soon saw the blood stains on the "top" of the stone slab, which must have been left by the eagle pecking at its prey.

But what about the poisoned eagle? I saw it clearly in the morning, and the eagle fell down. Even if such a large stone slab fell from the top, it would not roll down. Where did it fall? Could it have been blown by the wind?

Gone? But on this peak, even if there is wind, it cannot blow an eagle that can swallow a snake, right? That eagle weighs at least ten kilograms.

Thinking of this, Wang Ke suddenly felt an ominous feeling. Then the pocket on his left chest jumped. Is this an illusion? No, the colored stones in his left pocket were indeed jumping.

Damn it, those colored stones are also alive?

Wang Ke immediately jumped down from the stone, ran to Gu Maolin and said, "Maolin, are you done with the test?"

Gu Maolin looked at Niu Suozhu opposite and saw him raising his hands. The original sign language of the reconnaissance team told them that it was completed. In wartime, there should be a wireless class or a telephone class around them now.

"It's over." Gu Maolin inserted the benchmark into the ground. Without thinking, he only inserted a little bit. There were rocks underneath, and the soft ones were just grass roots.

The benchmark fell slowly. Gu Maolin clapped his hands and said, "Platoon leader, what's the matter?"

"Maolin, look at this stone. What's weird underneath?" Wang Ke dragged Gu Maolin to the "peaked cap". Before he reached the stone, Gu Maolin frowned, and then he shouted: "

Platoon leader, don't move, close your eyes and sit down."

Then he suddenly sat down cross-legged, with a serious look on his face, clasped his hands together, and bowed slightly.

Wang Ke didn't understand what was going on, and reacted quickly. He jumped back and sat down next to Gu Maolin. This was the same time he led the whole class on a business trip to the ammunition depot. In the snow, he

I met Gu Maolin the time he summoned the snake.

Through the slits of his squinted eyes, Wang Ke saw Gu Maolin, sitting cross-legged with his legs intertwined, the soles of his feet facing the sky, the palms of his hands facing up, placed on his legs. It was like holding a heavy object, and then he closed his eyes.

, and there are words in his mouth.

Wang Ke thought, are there snakes on the top of this 50-60 meter cliff? If there are snakes, how did they get up? Could it be that they climbed up from this road like himself, but how did they get through the broken gap?

Woolen cloth?

While Wang Ke was lost in thought, one snake after another poked out from the top of the "peaked cap". The snake's head was so big that it was as big as the mouth of a bowl. Its body was golden, its neck was stretched flat, and there was a black message in its mouth.

of rapid vomiting.

Wang Ke felt excited all over, and the colored stone in his pocket jumped a few more times.

Then, another smaller snake climbed up.

I was really scared to death. I was sitting there just now, and I almost wanted to lie down and bask in the sun! If that were the case, wouldn't it be that I was almost bitten by these two snakes?

By the way, the dead eagle was probably attacked by these two snakes and must have been swallowed. No wonder not even a single feather was left.

The big snake slowly climbed up, with most of its body over one and a half meters tall, while the smaller snake shrank back.

Wang Ke couldn't help but shuddered.

The big snake's head stood over a foot high, and Wang Ke could smell the smell coming from its mouth even from such a distance. An indescribable nausea in the smell went straight to his throat.

Wang Ke looked over through the slit in his eyes. The snake crawled over slowly. Now he could see clearly. The snake was nearly three meters long. It crawled to the side of Gu Maolin, raised its head, and its black tail quickly expanded and contracted, seeming to be in contact with him.

Gu Maolin talked to him, and then he continued to crawl towards Wang Ke.

Wang Ke didn't put his hands together, and all the muscles in his body were tense. As the snake slowly crawled, he even heard the tiny "wisp" sound made by the snake when it stretched and contracted.

There is a fishy smell that goes straight into the nose.

Wang Ke gritted his teeth and did not dare to make any sound or movement. He was sure that his whole body was now covered in goosebumps.

Holding his military dagger tightly with his right hand, Wang Ke thought that if there was anything strange or a slight disturbance, he would immediately pull out the knife, cut off the snake's head with lightning speed, and then pull

He ran away from the valley and the forest.

But the big snake only crawled around Wang Ke, then slowly crawled back to Gu Maolin, then slowly climbed up the stone slab, looked back, and disappeared into the grass under the "peaked cap".

Gu Maolin let out a heavy breath, stood up, and said to Wang Ke: "Okay, platoon leader. Fortunately, it's the two of us today."

"How to say?"

"Let's go, let's leave." Gu Maolin picked up the pole, dismantled it, and quickly walked back to the broken gap. The two of them climbed through the gap one after another according to the way they came.

The way back is basically an upward climb, which is much easier than when we came here.

After walking about ten meters in one breath, Gu Maolin looked back at the eagle's beak below, and then said to Wang Ke: "Platoon leader, have you heard of the feared Black Mamba?"

Wang Ke shook his head.

"The black mamba is a famous venomous snake in Africa. Its rival is the golden cobra we saw today."

"What, what we just saw was a cobra? How could a cobra appear in Xishan?" Wang Ke thought this was too incredible, so he blurted out in disbelief.

Gu Maolin said seriously: "This kind of snake has the characteristics of an oval head and a golden body. But don't be fooled by its beautiful appearance. Among cobras, it is also one of the best. Once you are poisoned by its venom, there will be no

It was treated in time, but it soon suffocated to death, which is simply terrifying. However, this kind of snake is only found in the south, so it’s hard to say why it is found here."

Hearing this, Wang Ke also broke out in a cold sweat. The top of this cliff is inaccessible, and even if you come up, you will encounter misfortune. It turns out that they also survive by preying on passing birds in the sky.

Thinking of this, there is still one thing that puzzles me, and that is why Gu Maolin immediately sat on the ground when he saw the stone? He asked again: "Maolin, what did you just see under the stone on that cliff?"

"It's a nest of snakes. These are two snakes. I'm not sure if I can communicate with it. It's okay. It's okay. The snake thought we were here to steal its territory! By the way, platoon leader, what's in your pocket?

Did the snake stone jump?"

"It jumped. Maolin, where's yours?"

"Mine also jumped. These snake stones also helped us today, allowing this golden cobra to smell the same kind of scent. Moreover, the snake stones on our bodies also released goodwill and helped us communicate."

Ah, snake stone also has this effect.

"Maolin, did you ask Golden Cobra what you just said?"

"no."

"Then why don't you ask? At least ask what these snake stones do, right?"

"Yes, this is too bad. Why did I forget this important event because of my nervousness?" Gu Maolin regretted it. "Platoon leader, please wait here for a while. I will go back and ask."

"Come on, let's go back quickly."

"By the way, Platoon Commander, there is one more thing. Did you just take something from the Golden Cobra?"

"No." Wang Ke said, suddenly remembering that he had picked up a few stones that were as transparent as glass. Could it be that stone?

"Maolin, I picked up some glass stones brought by eagles."

"Glass stone? Platoon leader, take it out and show it to me."

Wang Ke took out the transparent stones from his coat pocket, and the fishy smell was transcendent.

"Oh, platoon leader, you are really a destined person. This is also a snake stone. But judging from this snake stone, these two snakes are still extremely venomous."

"Maolin, why do you say that?"

"Platoon leader, I understand now. The more poisonous the snake is, the more transparent its snake stone should be."

When Wang Ke thought about it, it was true that what Gu Maolin picked up at first was just colored stones. The ones he got from the Cockscomb Snake's Nest were already crystal clear and translucent, and now they are like glass.

"Maolin, snake stone is just like bezoar and donkey treasure. It can be used as medicine, right?"

"Platoon leader, I don't know much about this, but I know that the difference between snake stone, bezoar, and donkey stone is that when the snake reaches a certain size, it will spit it out and stay with it day and night. As for its effects and functions,

I still don’t know.”

Wang Ke nodded. The snake stones on himself and Gu Maolin played a big role today. This should be regarded as an effect. It can prevent the attack of giant venomous snakes. "Maolin, I picked six pieces, and our family will take half of them."

.”

"Platoon leader, that's great, but just give me a piece. I don't want that much."

Wang Ke thought about it and thought that now that he has focused so much, it would be better to give it to Uncle Ye for research in the future. So Wang Ke took out a larger piece and handed it to Gu Maolin, and then put the remaining five pieces into it.

Put it into the cloth pocket on the left chest. At this point, Wang Ke has a total of eleven pieces, which are white, yellow, green and dark red.

"Maolin, don't tell anyone about the snake stone."

"Yes! Platoon commander, I understand."

Today, Yingzui took a risk, and in addition to obtaining valuable training coordinates, he also obtained the snake stone of the golden cobra. It was something that neither his godfather Professor Wen nor Professor Ye Rongguang had yet to research, and it must be a priceless treasure.

He came up quickly, but as soon as he walked in front of the old platoon leader Hu Zhijun, Wang Ke was stunned by his words.

"Commander platoon leader, what's going on with that snake? Why don't you run away?"
