The entire cliff face was directly blown open.
Smoke billowed, and dirt, rocks, and debris flew into the air.
The broken stones, under the force of gravity, rolled down onto the concrete road below.
A cloud of smoke.
Everyone secretly muttered, "Good thing we ran far."
Just now, they thought running a few dozen meters away would be enough, but looking at the power now, if they had been any closer, they would definitely have been hit by the stones.
As the smoke cleared, a large cave entrance appeared inside. Everyone slowly walked forward.
Before they even reached the cave entrance, they saw several pythons rolling out from inside the cave.
Da Pao walked at the very front. He saw the cave entrance was densely packed with snakes.
There were large and small ones, and the largest among them was nearly 20 centimeters thick, which was almost as thick as a person's thigh.
Seeing the cave filled with pythons, Da Pao's scalp tingled and he felt like vomiting.
Li Yu also walked over and, seeing this scene, felt completely unwell.
The snakes filling this cave were now coiled together, and two smaller ones had already been squeezed out.
They were flicking their forked tongues and slithering towards them.
CTM!
Li Yu was furious.
He absolutely hated snakes.
He remembered watching Animal World as a child, seeing the large pythons in Africa, and having nightmares about them in the middle of the night.
This is insane!
Kill them all!
"Da Pao, later throw one, no, two, no, three explosive packages. Throw them over and blow them up. They're too disgusting!" Li Yu said, running towards the top of the concrete road.
Yu Tong and Song Min, who had followed behind, wanted to go closer to see what was happening inside.
Li Yu told them not to look, but seeing that everyone was still very curious, he let them go.
However, Li Yu directly held Yu Tong's small hand and ran up the mountain.
Everyone reached the cave entrance, about 20 meters away from it, and when they clearly saw what was inside the cave, their faces all looked a bit grim.
This stuff was indeed disgusting.
Especially when they were coiled up in clumps, intertwined with each other.
It was clear that some of the snakes inside seemed to have sensed the cave opening and wanted to crawl out, but they were entangled by other snakes and couldn't break free for a while.
Everyone retreated backward.
Da Pao's scalp also tingled, and Li Hang and Li Gang stepped forward to help.
"Xiao Hang, you throw it over there later, Gang Zi, you throw it over there." Da Pao used to be a demolition expert. Based on his calculations, he figured out the fastest way to kill these snakes with explosives.
The three of them simultaneously threw the explosive packages they held. The fuse of these explosive packages was held in their hands, about a dozen meters long.
The explosive package Da Pao threw landed precisely into a gap between the snakes inside the cave.
Very accurate!
The three of them simultaneously lit the fuses in their hands.
Hiss hiss hiss~~~
The fuses were lit.
However, the snakes at the cave entrance were still coiling, and as they coiled, they even pushed the explosive package Da Pao had just thrown further inside.
Da Pao and the other two quickly ran up the mountain.
This time, everyone ran even further, about two hundred meters away from the explosive packages.
They stopped there and found a suitable vantage point.
Their concrete road was winding, and from where they stood, they could just see the other side.
They waited for a few seconds.
Boom! Boom!
Two loud explosions.
Hmm?
Li Yu looked at Da Pao, a little confused. Didn't they place three explosive packages?
Da Pao was also a bit bewildered. When he ran over just now, he saw the explosive package he threw had been squeezed in. Could it have been extinguished by the large snake's body?
Da Pao's face looked a bit awkward.
Just then, boom! An even louder sound than the previous two came!
Li Yu quickly took out his binoculars to look.
Tsk tsk.
Through the binoculars, he saw a huge snake, thrown into mid-air, directly exploded into a bloody mess like a spray.
That's truly disgusting.
Ten times more disgusting than zombies. After three loud explosions, a voice came through the walkie-talkie.
It was Li Tie.
"Big Brother, what are you doing up there? Always booming and booming, did you find anything?" Li Tie said over the walkie-talkie.
"Uh, found some pythons, very disgusting, blew them up," Li Yu said unhappily.
"..."
Everyone waited in place for five minutes.
After the smoke cleared, Li Yu and the others slowly approached the area.
As they got closer, they found the ground covered in crimson and a foul stench assaulted them.
Everyone quickly put on gas masks; the smell was truly unbearable.
The cave entrance had been greatly expanded, and there were sections of snake corpses everywhere.
Some were still wriggling.
It made one's scalp tingle just looking at them.
On a tree behind, two sections of snake corpses were hanging.
They just hung there, making it extremely eerie to look at.
"That's truly disgusting," Li Yu said.
These snakes had to be cleaned up. If they hadn't blown open this cave in the first place, it would have been fine, but once it was blown open, and there were snakes inside, they would easily be bitten when going up and down this mountain.
Since they had started, they might as well finish the job and just blow them all to death.
Everyone looked around on the ground; there were no living snakes left, but some of the concrete road surface had also been blown away. However, because the inner cliff face was blown open, it actually made the road surface wider.
Everyone composed themselves and continued to explore further up.
Along the way, everyone was very careful and diligent.
Li Gang and Li Hang, carrying detectors, went one after another, ensuring that every place was searched twice.
Unfortunately, along the way, they didn't detect any other unusual places.
Everyone was a bit disheartened, but the view from the mountaintop was indeed good.
Behind this mountaintop, there was a temple, and everyone searched the temple.
There were no people, and nothing else either.
Everyone sighed.
Li Yu's mood was even worse.
Everyone wandered around the mountain for a while, using their detectors everywhere.
But still, they found nothing.
The sun was setting in the west, and it would be dark in another hour.
Everyone's mood was heavy.
After a busy half-day, everyone wanted to rest for a while.
So they each found a place to sit down.
Everyone sat by the concrete road, and the others also found rocky spots to sit down.
Li Yu, however, sat on a large marble slab.
Li Hang saw Yu Tong and Li Yu sitting together, so he felt it was awkward to go and sit with them.
Suddenly, he saw a raised object, ran over directly, and plopped down onto it.
The maternal uncle quickly said, "Xiao Hang, that place you're on is a tombstone. The one I just saw should be a blank tablet."
Li Hang immediately panicked upon hearing this and asked, "What is a blank tablet?"
The maternal uncle sighed and said, "Generally, when white-haired people send off black-haired people, and the black-haired person was unmarried and had no descendants, such people often get a blank tablet."
Li Hang felt a bit sad upon hearing this, then lowered his head and bowed to the blank tablet.
Just as he was bowing, his eyes sharpened.
He saw a string of numbers written in an inconspicuous spot on the lower-left corner of the blank tablet: 89800.
What is this?
Li Hang quickly called his maternal uncle: "Maternal uncle, what does 89800 mean?"
"What?!" The maternal uncle's expression changed upon hearing this.
Li Gang, who was behind, also felt a sense of familiarity with this number.
So he took out the detector and measured the area.
Along the way, although the detector was used in various places, it was impossible to test every single spot, and this small tombstone was missed.
When the detector was used, it started beeping.
