On our side, after experiencing this small episode, Aneng's side seemed to be fine.
However, it seems that the night is getting dark very quickly, but what is a bit gratifying is that the rain seems to have decreased. Because the rain has reduced, everyone's mood has improved significantly.
Because they had eaten something, everyone finally followed Aneng's advice and added some useless wet wood to the firewood and continued to make some charcoal fire.
Normal wet firewood cannot be used, but due to the burning of the fire, these wet firewood were quickly ignited. Because of the continuous addition, the fireworks will not be too big, but the burned firewood will be well preserved and then turned into charcoal that can last for a long time.
Some people kept surrounding the wet mud under the mud pile around the fire, so that the charcoal could be gradually gathered in the middle of the fire. Not only does it harden the surrounding wet mud, it also allows the charcoal fire in the middle to be well preserved.
Even though no more firewood has been added, there seems to be a lot of charcoal fire on the mud pile in the middle. If calculated according to the period of gradual sealing, this pile of charcoal fire can be kept for at least half of the night.
This is obviously excellent protection for those who need to be on duty at that time, both for sight lines and for maintaining necessary temperature in the swamp.
Originally, Aneng planned to divide the work among everyone as agreed at the beginning. Not only does the work need to be divided into watch posts, but it also needs to be arranged accurately.
But when Aneng was making arrangements, suddenly everyone heard the sound of water splashing on the water not far away in front and left! Originally, in the swamp, the sound was not unexpected. But it was still dark at this time, so it was naturally stressful to see clearly.
"Aneng, what's that sound over there?" The first person who felt tense was Liu Chan, who had always been calm. He didn't know what he was thinking. He didn't have the slightest objection to Yuanyuan coming to Ni Yuewen's side. Instead, Dong Wen followed him.
Aneng was silent for the time being, but everyone followed the sound and looked over, and saw violent splashes of water on the water of the swamp duckweed not far to our left. Even the sound of splashing mud and water was spreading rapidly towards us, it was obvious that there was a big creature!
"Oops, Huang Jing...!" Zhu Zixiu immediately approached me, her voice even trembling, and she said nervously: "Trouble, it seems, there is big trouble coming!"
Although I didn’t know what it was, I naturally heard it very quickly. But sensing her nervousness, he couldn't help but roll his eyes at her. It was getting dark at this time, so I couldn't see the whole face clearly, but I understood that she was rarely so nervous.
She even drew her weapon for the first time since entering the swamp and carefully observed the surrounding environment with her eyes! So I originally wanted to give her a few warnings, but I restrained myself in time.
As for Aneng, he acted almost instantly. Because the light was extremely dark and it started to rain, even if he knew there was danger in that direction, he didn't know what it was!
"I'm calling Aneng, look, look, under your rafts!" Liu Chan was not calm for the first time, and his voice even sounded a little urgent. Because he seemed to see something again, he shouted quickly and deeply to Aneng.
Aneng has encountered many things and naturally has a lot of experience. Even though he knew there was danger, his heart sank at this moment, but he instantly looked at the raft under him with extreme calmness.
When Dang and his companions heard the news, they used the weak light of the fire to look towards the wooden raft. Even though Aneng had experienced many battles, his heart could not help but tremble violently! The rest of the people took a deep breath when they saw it.
Because even if he only saw it once, Aneng captured it instantly. There was a section in the water that was as thick as two adult thighs, something like an ebony tree trunk, and it was slowly swimming through the water and mud.
These people felt chills all over, and they naturally understood that this was not wood. Anengrao has experienced hundreds of battles and has seen countless horrors. When he saw this situation, he reacted almost instantly: "Damn, this looks like the body of a giant anaconda!"
No matter how bad the light here is at this time, because the fire in the middle of the mud pile is still bright, everyone can still see the body of a giant thing passing through the water and mud.
Under the dim light, there are several mottled patterns of yellow, red and white. Anyone with a clear mind will understand that this is a giant anaconda just now, which really swam under the raft in the water and mud!
Although he didn't see its full picture clearly, according to Aneng's eyesight and the people with a strong desire to survive, the strange length of this giant anaconda was at least more than four meters. Although it feels incredible, it appears alive in front of everyone.
"Yaya!,,,,,,, do you want to carry it like this?"
Even Aneng couldn't help it, and instantly retreated to the middle of the raft. He held the weapon in his hand carefully, and his ears actually moved quickly on their own! This is his specialty, he is particularly sensitive to sounds. So while paying careful attention, his eyes kept trembling slightly and staring in that direction.
"It doesn't know how to attack directly! There are so many of us...!" Lan Yulian was next to Aneng. She looked at the tree trunks and ebony trees here. It was obviously a huge snake. She felt naturally I was worried and frightened like everyone else.
After all, ordinary people still seem a little powerless in front of absolutely powerful beasts.
Peng Qian's eyes widened as he swallowed hard and looked at Aneng in a deep voice: "Brother Neng, there are so many of us with weapons in our hands now, so we shouldn't be afraid, right?"
I don't know if he is emboldening himself or hoping to find some kind of comfort in Aneng.
"I hope it's just passing by...!" Aneng's nerves were tense all the time, and even the look on his face became somewhat solidified at this time. It seemed that there was no other movement, and the voice remained calm, but it was obviously very solemn.
After all, these people not only have knives, but also hot weapons in their hands. Even though this giant anaconda was huge, Aneng still didn't care too much. If this giant anaconda is frightened by the news, how can it get into the depths of the rainforest?
"Huang Jing, no, do you believe me?,,,,,," Zhu Ziniu suddenly looked at me, and even took the initiative to get closer to me, her voice trembling.
"What's wrong,,,,,,!" I have never been disgusted with this black-framed beauty, nor can I say I particularly like her, because here, I know that life is more important. But I still admire her for surviving, so I am naturally cautious.
