Chapter 167 Not on the Same Level

After his friend posted this status on the social platform, Pan Weining was worried that this kind of "mosaic" was useless and could even directly locate a person. This outfit makes it clear who it is.

Even though many people don't know that Snake Brother is Feng Yi.

So Pan Weining asked Feng Yi again if this is okay, if not, just delete it.

Feng Yi took a look and thought it didn't matter. Anyway, they were talking about "Snake Brother", what does it have to do with me Feng Yi?

"What did Feng Yi say?"

"He said it's like this, it's okay."

Pan Weining said, and then looked up at the person in the passenger seat, "You did it on purpose, didn't you?"

If he really wanted to blur it, his friend would not know how to do it, but he just added glasses and a mask, which happened to be the typical outfit of "Snake Brother".

This means to tell everyone that the one who caught the crocodile is Snake Brother.

The person sitting in the front passenger seat did not deny it, "I did it on purpose. You don't know the nature of some people. They rush to take advantage of things that are not theirs to do! And now the media from all countries are there. Although I emphasized that it was a young expert, there are so many young experts participating in this event. What if other countries say that this person is from their country? Don't we still have to dispel the rumor? Wouldn't this have the opposite effect?

"We have to let everyone know that this young expert is our Snake Brother, and he has nothing to do with other people! Feng Yi was worried about trouble, but everyone didn't know that Snake Brother was him. Everyone only knew Snake Brother, and they couldn't find Feng Yi. "

Pan Weining's thoughts made sense. Not many people knew that Feng Yi was Snake Brother, and Feng Yi didn't take it seriously after knowing it, so there was no need for him to worry too much. If there were any comments on the Internet that were unfavorable to Feng Yi, they could help again.

On the other side, Cheng Si was broadcasting live. This time period in China was also the peak time for watching live broadcasts in the evening, and there were many viewers in the live broadcast room.

In the Florida Everglades, as the sun came out, the temperature gradually rose.

Cheng Si sat in the car, pointed the camera outside the car, and interacted with the audience in the live broadcast room.

"We changed a route today, and then we will pass many places along the road to let everyone see the three faces of the Everglades. "

Today, Cheng Si also chose a new route. After all, he had to broadcast live. If the scenery was repeated every day, people would feel bored. Changing the route would bring new content and different contestants.

They set out from the mangroves near the sea and headed inland from the seaside. During this journey, they would pass through the mangroves near the sea, the wetlands in the middle, and the forests inland.

Cheng Si was ambitious. He was thinking about when he would return to being "Si Ge" from "Xiao Si Zi" and hoped to become "Si Ye" further.

The word "Ye" sounds impressive!

"Look! Crocodile!"

Cheng Si pointed the camera at a crocodile not far away. "To be precise, this is called a short-snouted alligator, or a Milford crocodile. This short-snouted alligator may just be looking for a new place to live. Now many ponds have run dry. They are not very active in the dry season and need to reduce energy consumption, but they also rely on water sources. It is very dangerous to stay away from water for a long time...

"The difference? Although we call them all crocodiles, the Alligatoridae and the Crocodileidae are different. In terms of explosive power, the Alligatoridae may still be a little behind. Most crocodiles are not cold-resistant, so they are suppressed in tropical areas. The Alligatoridae, such as the Michigan River Alligator and the Yangtze Alligator, a first-class protected animal in our country, have the ability to hibernate and can survive in subtropical areas. Moreover, the Alligatoridae are relatively mild in temperament, and Florida people are used to coexisting with the Michigan River Alligator...

"Don't be afraid, the physique of crocodiles in the dry season is not comparable to that in the rainy season. Pay attention to the fact that there will be basically no conflict."

Cheng Si had good luck today and walked a distance:

"Wow! Look, there is a python on the road ahead! We are so lucky today! "

Cheng Si was delighted. It was not easy to see a python on the road. The people in the car might not find it even if they went out of their way to look for it. Now they encountered a python crossing the road while driving on the road. Isn't this luck?!

"This python is of medium size, about two meters long. So, what should we do next?"

Cheng Si asked the audience in the live broadcast room, wanting to hear their answers.

There was someone in the car who caught the python, so Cheng Si didn't need to do it himself. However, in order to ensure his image, Cheng Si would still catch the python with the help of others.

While planning in his mind, Cheng Si looked at the live broadcast room, only to see comments slide by one by one--

"Nonsense, of course, drive quietly close, and then honk the horn!"

"The one who honked the horn in front, the snake's hearing is not very good."

"Python, a species that is suffocating just by the name! Xiao Si, remind me to blindfold myself when cutting the close-up! ”

It is now around 9pm or 10pm in China, and there are many people in Cheng Si’s live broadcast room.

When Cheng Si caught the python, the discussion in the live broadcast room was heated.

“I never thought that I would watch someone else catch a python live in the middle of the night.”

“Just treat it as… a bedtime story. Watch it for a while and then go to sleep.”

“A bedtime horror story?”

“If Brother Snake is here at this time, would you feel safer?”

“I just happened to find a piece of news about Brother Snake! Everyone, go to the social platform and search!”

After a while, a group of people were posting:

“Xiao Si, you are not good enough. We have to learn about Brother Snake’s dynamics from others!”

So, after Cheng Si caught the python, he felt that he had done a good job this time and could change his image in the eyes of fans. But when he took out his phone and looked at Brother Snake? What news about Brother Snake?

Ignoring the python that was just caught here, Cheng Si went to the social platform to search and soon saw a repost from a follow account.

The person who posted the post must also be a contestant, saying that he encountered a crocodile and asked for help, but the rescue team did not come over and he encountered Brother Snake.

Read the comments below.

"Brother Snake is like a sliding shovel when he comes up! [Dog Head]"

"What do you mean? Just kidding?"

"That's what the person in the original article said. So the question is, is this sliding shovel serious?"

"It doesn't matter if it's serious or not, as long as you know that those people were fishing in the swamp, they didn't catch the fish, the crocodile came out, and blocked someone, and Brother Snake came to save it, in short, it's enough to be awesome!"

"I only knew Brother Snake was good at catching snakes, but I didn't expect that he was also good at catching crocodiles!"

"Who is Brother Snake?" some first-time onlookers who didn't know the truth asked.

"Brother Snake, you don't even know? That's the boss of the Snake Circle!"

"What's the boss of the snake circle? That's the boss of the climbing circle! The most awesome figure in the reptile circle!"

"The master of circle climbing, referred to as the climbing god?"

Cheng Si flipped through the comments. Before he could change from "Little Si Zi" to "Brother Si", Feng Yi had already changed from "Brother Snake" to "Big Brother Si"?

It can't be compared, it really can't be compared.

Someone in the live broadcast room asked him why he didn't hang out with Brother Snake. Cheng Si thought to himself: I want to, but they won't let me play.

Since he couldn't keep up with Feng Yi, Cheng Si could only do a good job in his own live broadcast room first. That is, I just said in the live broadcast that Mihe alligators are not active now and have no conflicts with people, but now they are slapped in the face. If it is not a life-threatening incident, there is no need to contact the rescue team.

Feng Yi didn't pay attention to what was going on online. As he continued deeper into the swamp, he could see wetlands and woodlands.

Other contestants were seen here too.

Steve said hello to them, but everyone was busy, so they said hello and continued doing their own things.

The boat stopped at one place for a while to check the route and take a short rest.

"You go into the depths of the swamp to catch pythons and you have children with you?" Feng Yi asked.

Among the group of people I met just now was a child, who looked to be in his early ten years.

Steve explained, "They are family-educated. They are all locals and they are familiar with this place. Bringing children to participate in such activities is just a professional training. If the parents follow, they will not go deep into the dangerous zone. It can be said that... "

Steve looked around and didn't see Cheng Si before continuing, "The kid is better at catching the same snake than Cheng Si."

Cheng Si's dark history is something Steve can't deal with. Now he's the control group, and he's used to compare everything.

Standing up and looking around, Steve said: "This place is a little more desolate during the dry season."

"Perhaps, when the pythons here are almost cleared, it will become more lively. Now we don't dare to introduce animals here," Warren said.

Warren actually doesn't like reptiles very much. He feels responsible for alligators and hates pythons.

He prefers raccoons.

When he was a child, raccoons would often visit his home, but now they are rarely seen.

"The Great Swamp is sick and has been fighting." Warren squinted his eyes and looked into the distance of the swamp against the sunlight.

Steve also said: "There are two reasons why the Everglades became like this. One is humans, and the other is species invasion."

Warren smiled, "So we're trying to figure out how to treat it."

What does a python invasion look like?

The original stable food chain of the Everglades suddenly had an additional ecological niche.

At first, no one among the animals living in the swamp knew what it was and whether it was dangerous.

Take Warren's favorite raccoon as an example. Regardless of whether it is the survival experience learned after birth or the instinct engraved in the genes and passed down with the genetic material, there is no way to tell the raccoon how to deal with it.

So when the python breaks into the swamp, the terrible killer crawls in front of it. The raccoon may not have reacted yet, or may have reacted and realized the danger, but it is already within the hunting range of the python and loses the chance to escape.

Boa constrictors, on the other hand, do not wander around when they are full. They find places to daze or sleep, staying there for many days, or they run out to bask in the sun when they are low on calories.

Make perfect use of the information gap and appear in the water, on the ground, or in the trees to complete the sweep.

"The natural rule is that you eat me and I eat you. The big python eats the raccoon, and the raccoon eats the small python. The python eats the alligator, and the crocodile eats the python." Steve said.

Baby pythons are eaten by other animals.

This includes raccoons, which can also eat small pythons.

But pythons grow too fast. Take the invasive Burmese python and other pythons as an example.

It can fight a raccoon in half a year, and it can swallow a raccoon in a year.

When talking about swamp beasts, people always mention crocodiles and pythons. However, the lifespan of a python is only twenty or thirty years, and the time it takes to become a mature individual is short, with a clutch of dozens of eggs. Crocodiles, on the other hand, take longer to reach adulthood. There is one at the research center who is over 70 years old.

These pythons eat a lot, grow fast, and still give birth. That's why Warren says he's wary of bringing in more animals. If the problem of pythons is not solved, no matter how many we introduce, we will only fatten them up.

Speaking of raccoons, Warren became angry, and his anger was of course directed at the pythons in the Everglades: "Those greedy, cerebral cortex-less invaders!"

Feng Yi accurately captured the key points in this sentence, then took out his phone and searched for:

【cerebral cortex】

In general, without the cerebral cortex, it is impossible to master advanced and complex reflexes, and we basically rely on instinct.

Feng Yi touched his head, and when Warren looked over, he brushed his hair back with his fingers, looking very natural.

At the same time, he had some enlightenment in his heart, and even a little secretly happy.

No wonder the housekeeper always told him that he was different from those low-level beasts, and he should not always make analogies.

Now he understood!

Those snakes don't have cerebral cortex!

They are not on the same level!

So, it is not wrong to regard them as dispensable snacks!

Feng Yi put away his mobile phone with satisfaction.

After the rest, the boat continued to sail. When they arrived at the destination, Warren did not go with them and did not get off the boat. "I'll stay here and take a nap first. I wish you good luck!"

After Feng Yi and Steve got off the boat, they walked for a while.

Steve said: "Search separately?"

Feng Yi agreed: "Okay."

"Contact me if there is any movement, don't be impulsive."

"Yeah."

Steve looked at him silently before leaving.

Feng Yi suppressed his excitement and walked a distance alone. He was farther away from Steve and there was no one else nearby, so he stopped, took off his boots and socks, and stepped on the grass barefoot.

Hehehe! Refreshing!

A layer of scales appeared on the soles of his feet, which touched the ground and also played a certain protective role.

Feng Yi smelled the odor molecules in the air and walked in one direction.

If someone saw him and asked why he took off his boots?

It must be because something got into his boots!

He just took off his boots to clean them, and he definitely didn't have any other strange ideas!

While Feng Yi was enjoying the wild grassland, Steve sent a video to Director He.

It was the video he asked the kid who took a video with his mobile phone before Pan Weining's people left. It showed the whole process of Feng Yi appearing and catching the crocodile with a sliding shovel, and rolling with the crocodile's mouth pinched.

Because he recalled Feng Yi's amazing actions during the scientific expedition, Steve became more and more worried.

Using a sliding shovel to shovel the crocodile also proved that this kid had never changed!

No one knows how this kid will catch the python later. Although Feng Yi promised nicely, Steve is familiar with this routine. He used to do this. He made all kinds of promises in front of Director He, but turned around and still followed his own way.

Steve believes that he can learn from other people's experience and learn from what is suitable for him. If it is not suitable, he does not have to follow those prescribed routines.

Director He always thinks that he is too adventurous, and he is uncontrollable when excited and difficult to discipline.

But now compared with Feng Yi...

I was too conservative back then!

At least I didn't dare to wrap the giant python around myself and run away with it!

I didn't dare to slide on the nearly four-meter crocodile! Sliding to the crocodile's mouth! Can a normal person do such a thing? !

So, to be on the safe side, I still told Director He that I would go to class after Feng Yi returned. Director He's class was quite difficult. After reporting, Steve gloated: Let you also feel my helplessness back then!

At the same time, it also proved to Director He that it was not Steve who made Feng Yi like this.

He is not that capable!
