Evolution from the crocodile

As evening approached, the sky became overcast and soon raindrops began to fall.

The wind was blowing loudly and getting stronger.

It was pitch black in the jungle, and I couldn't see my fingers.

With Lu Chen's eyesight, he could barely see the outline of objects ten meters away outside the cave.

There's a typhoon!

The wind howled in the woods above, and it seemed like countless ghosts were howling.

The river, which used to be relatively calm, is now rolling with waves four to five feet high, constantly beating against the stones on the shore, making a rumbling sound.

The damp, salty smell penetrated straight into his nostrils, making Lu Chen couldn't help but sneeze.

He was extremely lucky to have led the three crocodile cubs to dig a cave early, otherwise it would be difficult to find a shelter from the wind and rain.

Although the cave is far from being completed, it is still more than ten meters long and very spacious, more than enough to accommodate several crocodile cubs.

It is normal for a typhoon to bring down the temperature. In just two days, the temperature dropped to 20 degrees.

Lu Chen had experienced it once before, so he didn't panic.

What's more, the cave goes deep into the mountain, and the insulation effect is excellent. The temperature drop is far less obvious than the outside world, and it still maintains a temperature of 24 to 5 degrees.

For the young crocodiles, it is still within the comfort range and completely tolerable.

The only thing that made Lu Chen regretful was that the typhoon came so quickly that he had no chance to prepare food in the cave. He was already hungry at this moment.

Not to mention myself, the same goes for the other three siblings.

They followed Lu Chen and got used to eating food every day.

I haven't eaten for two days in a row, and I am still very hungry and weak.

There is a river more than thirty meters away from the cave. Unfortunately, it is windy and rainy, so it is not suitable for hunting. Lu Chen decided to endure it for the time being and wait until the wind calmed down a bit before making any plans.

You know, after a crocodile eats once in the wild, it can last for days or even months without eating.

Not eating food for two days has no effect on them.

Lu Chen was comforting himself when he suddenly heard a creaking sound coming from the wind and rain.

At first I thought it was an illusion... but it became clearer and clearer, as if it was coming from the big banyan tree overhead.

You don't have to guess to know which animals were injured in the typhoon.

Normally, Lu Chen would never miss the delicious food delivered to his mouth. It's too cold now and it's not worth the cold and pain for a bite of food. What's more, most of the animals living in trees have flexible movements and are difficult to catch on their own.

Unexpectedly, the sound finally sounded outside the cave.

Isn't this courting death?

Lu Chen immediately started thinking about going out. After all, the food has been delivered to your mouth, and you have no reason not to accept it.

But before he could climb to the entrance of the cave, he saw a gray-brown figure hurrying in.

Zhizhi...

In the dark passage, with only a few lights at the entrance, Lu Chen could clearly see the guy's appearance.

It is about thirty centimeters long, covered with wet fur, and has a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks.

It's a half-grown monkey that's not yet an adult!

When digging the new cave, Lu Chen considered the possibility of being invaded by natural enemies, so the diameter of the cave entrance was only about 20 centimeters.

Compared to the monkey's body, it is obviously too narrow.

This little guy didn't see clearly what was going on inside the cave. He was just dizzy and kept drilling deeper.

Seeing that the other party was in a hurry to die, Lu Chen almost laughed like a pig.

If there is a road to heaven, don’t take it; if there is no door to hell, you have to take it.

The monkey ran to the crocodile cave to hide from the rain. Isn't this the food that comes to the door?

The little guy finally squeezed through the narrow passage at the entrance of the cave and finally entered the spacious area. Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw several pairs of scarlet eyes staring straight at him.

There seemed to be greed and excitement in his eyes.

Zhizhi...zhizhi...

The little guy screamed again, his body shivering, huddled up and hid in the corner.

At the same time, he covered his eyes with his two front paws.

Lu Chen looked at the other party speechlessly. According to the normal script, shouldn't it scream and run towards the cave entrance?

This monkey was absolutely stunned by the heavy rain. Do you really think that if you cover your eyes, you won't be able to see it?

He crawled forward for a distance and was about to open his mouth to kill the prey when suddenly there was a rustling sound at the entrance of the cave and a fishy smell floated into his nostrils.

The entrance to the cave was completely blocked by something, and it became dark again.

A ferocious head as big as a bowl appeared in the cave, with two eyes emitting a ferocious green light, and a viper spitting out fishy wind... Lu Chen immediately recognized what kind of animal it was.

Damn, python, a Burmese python? !

At this moment, he felt his body shaking involuntarily.

I'm really scared! The level of fear was even far greater than the King Jin Snake I encountered before.

The main Burmese python was too famous in its previous life... This kind of guy is famous for its huge size. Their vertebrae can proliferate massively, so their size can also continue to grow.

The Burmese python is also one of the largest snakes in the world, with an average body length of five to seven meters.

A Burmese python kept in a wildlife park in its previous life reached an astonishing 8.2 meters and weighed more than 183 kilograms.

If it were just huge, Lu Chen wouldn't be so panicked.

The key point is that this guy is also very ferocious. In addition to small mammals and birds, it will also eat wild boars and goats that exceed its own weight, and can even hunt smaller crocodiles.

Baby crocodiles are also one of their prey.

The Burmese python has a special mouth structure. The mandible can be dislocated to form a maximum opening of up to 130 degrees up and down, and it can also expand to the maximum width left and right, turning the mouth into a soft, boneless soft skin bag structure.

When encountering larger prey, it can be easily swallowed.

Yes, the Burmese python’s hunting and devouring abilities are so abnormal!

Records once showed that a Burmese python that was 3.3 meters long and weighed 14.2 kilograms actually swallowed a 15.8 kilogram white-tailed deer alive. It broke the largest mass ratio between a python and its prey and set a new record for snakes. The highest record since!

Of course, swallowing does not mean that it can be digested. Later, this guy was strangled to death while regurgitating the body of a white-tailed deer, which proved the eternal saying of the greedy snake swallows the elephant.

Most of the body of the Burmese python in front of me is still outside the cave, so the specific length cannot be seen. But judging from the huge head, it weighs at least forty pounds.

In other words, it could easily swallow all of Lu Chen.

Damn...the Burmese python must have been brought by the monkeys.

Lu Chen automatically figured out the plot: the little monkey might have been separated from the monkey group in the wind and rain, and was targeted by the Burmese python looking for food. The little guy ran away in panic and crashed into the cave.

However, even the reptile crocodile cannot withstand this kind of weather. Why can the Burmese python still go out to look for food?

This thought flashed through Lu Chen's mind, and then he turned his attention to his eyes.

Seeing the trembling little guy in the corner, Lu Chen was so angry that he wanted to bite him to death. Damn it, Sangmenxing, brought me such an outrageous enemy.

The difference in strength was too big, and Lu Chen thought he couldn't do it.

Thirty-six strategies, walking is the best strategy.

It's better to retreat strategically first and preserve our strength.

Lu Chen was once again lucky that he had dug the escape tunnel early. At this moment, while the Burmese python was focusing on the little monkey, he had every chance to leave.
