Chapter 170: Holding Back the Big Move

"How does it change teeth?" Feng Yi asked.

The housekeeper pondered for a moment, and there was the sound of turning pages. It could be felt that the other side seemed to be very distressed.

After a while, the housekeeper said: "You need to find this out by yourself. After all, the reference materials I have here are only small groove teeth. Moreover, your tooth replacement period is earlier than I expected."

Meaning: there is no reference material for your pair of large tube teeth.

This matter stumped Feng Yi.

"Then... how do the groove teeth in the data change?" Feng Yi asked again.

"A new pair will grow out and replace the old teeth." The housekeeper said.

Meaning, when the new teeth grow out, the old teeth will fall off.

Feng Yi looked in the mirror and popped out the pair of large tube teeth that had been retracted. Obviously, there would not be enough space to grow a pair of new teeth side by side.

"I shouldn't use this method." Feng Yi said.

"Well, I think so too. So, this requires you to observe and pay attention to it yourself." The housekeeper sighed.

Feng Yi thought about it. The housekeeper was talking about "changing teeth". That is to say, if the teeth are changed due to external factors, the old teeth should be damaged, or not sharp enough to pierce the skin of the prey, and it is difficult to perform its function, so new teeth will grow to replace them.

But Feng Yi's situation is different. Feng Yi did not use it at all. In order to extract venom, Feng Yi paid more attention to the maintenance of teeth. He brushed it carefully every morning and evening. Even if it was hidden in his mouth all the time, there was no plaque, tartar or other things. It was white and clean.

There is no possibility of any damage.

If it is caused by hunger, he can actually bear it during this period, unlike the hunger during the scientific expedition.

Or maybe, it is the time to change teeth, and the environment and conditions are stimulating, so the change comes?

In any case, the change has indeed begun, and it is impossible to stop once there is a direction until it completes this stage of change. This kind of thing cannot be called a pause.

"Is there anything to pay attention to during the tooth change period?" Feng Yi asked.

"...pay attention to nutrition."

This is a bit like nonsense. After all, Feng Yi doesn't dare to eat freely outside now, and because of the hot search, many people are watching him. At the same time, his performance in catching pythons is very impressive. Not only in the residential area, but also in the swamp, he may be watched by other contestants. Now he can only take time to eat compressed biscuits when looking for pythons, or wait to go back to the hotel for a snack.

"Or just quit directly." The housekeeper said.

Comparatively, Feng Yi's health is definitely the most important thing, and money and points can be earned later.

Feng Yi certainly won't joke about his own body. He also knows that this change is very important, but he has his own considerations.

"How long will the tooth replacement period last?" Feng Yi asked.

"The information says it's within a month, but I don't know if your situation will take longer." The housekeeper also knew that Feng Yi had been busy with laboratory matters. "The energy required for the first period of time is not much. You have time to think about it."

"Yeah."

"Try to eat as much as possible. Fortunately, Xiao Bing made a lot of efforts in the nutrition of the compressed biscuits he made for you. Use those compressed biscuits first. Eat more fresh food when you eat out. Order food in the room when you return to the hotel to make up for it."

"Yeah, I know."

"If you want to bite something, you can bite it more."

"Got it."

The old housekeeper sighed over there. Although he didn't like big teeth, he cared about Feng Yi very much. He couldn't do anything, so he could only make some suggestions and then respect Feng Yi's decision. If he had known that Feng Yi's tooth replacement period would be advanced, he would have suggested that Feng Yi give up this activity. Unfortunately, there is no if.

After the call, Feng Yi sat on the chair with a serious face, raised his hand, bit his thumb, and felt it carefully.

Yeah, I have to bite something harder.

Take out the order book in the hotel room and look through it.

Some species are listed as protected species, and some animals are restricted for consumption. The specialties of Florida in the past may not be edible now, but Feng Yi doesn't care so much.

Flipping through the menu, there is nothing that satisfies Feng Yi.

"This meat is too soft... This meat is too thin..."

Flipping through it, ordering anything with big bones and hard shells.

Used to grind teeth.

After the meal was delivered, Feng Yi comforted his poor stomach and chewed a shell while thinking about something.

Changing teeth is also accompanied by the strengthening of venom glands, which he can feel vaguely.

But Feng Yi doesn't know if this strengthening of venom glands and fangs is a good thing.

No matter how sharp the fangs are, no matter how powerful the venom is, what use is it to him?

No matter how much "food" there is in the wild, he can't eat it, because it is protected by local laws.

On the contrary, it may make him more restricted in his daily life.

If it is physical strengthening, any muscle bone or the like is fine, even strengthening the tail is fine!

Why is it the venom gland!

His body is not weak!

Feng Yi pondered.

Could it be that because the tail was not released, the body made the same choice as last time, strengthening the venom gland?

If the venom gland is strengthened, then the strengthening of other parts of the body will have to be postponed?

Each strengthening requires sufficient energy to support, so the unused parts will be in energy-saving mode?

No wonder it always feels that the little tail is well-behaved.

Feng Yi changed a shell and continued to chew it.

In fact, if you think in a positive direction, the venom gland is always better than other strange changes.

It will definitely have an impact on his state. If possible, Feng Yi hopes that the game can end as soon as possible.

But obviously not.

Therefore, Feng Yi was thinking, how about quitting early?

But he is unwilling to give in. The pythons caught so far cannot meet his needs, and he cannot replace them with models that are satisfactory enough.

Come here once and then go back?

The butler said he still had time to prepare.

Feng Yi thought carefully about it all night, and the next day, he agreed to Steve's suggestion of staying in the swamp for a few days.

Steve was very excited. Since they were going to spend the night in the swamp, they weren't going to take a boat. Steve rented a car, applied with Director He, and picked up some necessary supplies to bring with him.

But he couldn't set off immediately.

A rain disrupted everyone's actions.

But the contestants also regard this as a short break and a vacation.

During the two-day break, Feng Yi stayed in the hotel. Steve went to the research center to visit. He didn't go with him. Instead, he studied the map and recalled all the smell information collected over the past few days. correspond.

Analyze the places where extreme individuals are most likely to appear.

Two days later, after the rain, the weather cleared and everyone set out again.

After a rain, the originally dry grass became more moist, and there were also some small puddles, which may be an obstacle for some people, but some people are better at finding pythons under such conditions.

Ten days after the python hunting event started, the number of people has dropped a lot. Some of them dropped out due to injuries due to various accidents during the python hunting process, others dropped out due to other reasons, and some were affected by the unfriendly environment in the swamp. , as well as the ferocity of the beast inside, frightened him away.

When Feng Yi and Steve drove off, he saw the people related to the crocodile shoveling incident, Pan Weining and his two friends.

When the three people over there saw Feng Yi, they took the initiative to say hello.

"Just the three of you?" Feng Yi asked.

"My cousin and another friend were frightened. They stayed in the hotel playing games and refused to come out," Pan Weining said.

Pan Weining's cousin was the one who was once trapped in the water by a crocodile.

Upon hearing this, Feng Yi's first reaction was: "Were they scared by the crocodile?"

Pan Weining smiled and shook his head, "No. Two days later, we caught a python. Although it was not big, we were very excited. When we went to the delivery point, we happened to meet another group of amateur contestants. They While grabbing a snake to take a video, one of the people didn’t pay attention and was bitten by the python.”

Pan Weining pointed at his face and said, "He just bit his face and didn't let go. Blood flowed all over the floor. Fortunately, the staff at the delivery point were experienced and dealt with the matter quickly. After the snake let go, we saw all the blood on his face. It was a tooth mark, as if it had been driven through by many nails. It seemed like the nose had been nailed through. It was scary. "

Even a small python is still a beast, a ferocious beast! Don’t think that pythons can’t bite people because they don’t have fangs, and don’t think that “mild” pythons won’t bite people. Mildness is all relative. Anyone who is bitten on the arm is considered lucky. As Pan Weining said, the person whose face was bitten by a python must have suffered a lot in the subsequent treatment.

No matter how many times they are emphasized before the event begins, there are always people who ignore their destructive power, get carried away, become careless, and then learn a lesson.

Steve didn't care much when he heard this. He had seen this kind of thing a lot. Even professionals can easily make this kind of mistake, let alone those amateurs with more impetuous mentality.

Pan Weining didn't say any more. They looked at Feng Yi and Steve with admiration and admiration. Because of their experience, they knew how hard it was to find pythons in the swamp. If you don't pay attention when catching them, you can get bitten.

And so far, Feng Yi and Steve have not only caught more, but also caught giant pythons without much injury.

Is this the world of masters?

Both sides have their own plans and will not stay here for too long.

Steve said: "Wish you good luck!"

Pan Weining and others also made a cheering gesture, "I also wish you can catch a bigger python, and if you can catch a six-meter one, you can set a new record!"

Steve was very happy when he heard this and laughed loudly: "I'd like to lend you your good words!"

When Feng Yi and the others drove away, one of the people in Pan Weining's car said, "I just discovered that their car has a lot of stuff in it. Are they going to spend the night in the wild? Aren't they going back to the residential area at night?"

"They used to come back every day."

Nowadays, people in the residential area discuss what the duo has gained every day. Even if they don't pay special attention, they can still hear a lot about Feng Yi and Steve. Especially the outstanding results are hard to compare with.

"Perhaps they have made a new discovery and are planning a big move?"

Not only did they think so, other people also thought the same when they learned that Feng Yi and Steve had chosen to stay in the swamp for a few nights.

What? Those two won't come back?

He must be holding back his ultimate move!

Feng Yi and the others drove to the depths of the swamp, taking turns driving each other for an hour. It wasn’t that he was too tired from driving, but people called and sent messages from time to time, so Steve decided to read them once an hour and reply in unison.

Many media contacted Steve and Feng Yi. They hoped to send the world's top photography team to follow the filming, but the two did not agree.

Steve received another call and declined politely with a smile. After the call was over, he put down the phone and said disgustedly: "It's in the way!"

They even refused Director He's request to follow them, let alone others!

They brought filming equipment, and they only needed to hand over some video materials to Director He every day. There was no need to find someone to follow them.

As for the captured pythons, they would choose a location and ask Director He to send someone to collect them. There were multiple official teams on the main road of the swamp area to help receive the goods.

Steve complained about the media who were still thieves. Seeing that Feng Yi didn't speak for a long time, he looked sideways.

I always felt that Feng Yi's eyes were particularly deep when he came out today.

"Feng Yi, did you really have any important discoveries? If so, don't hide it from me!" Steve said seriously.

"Really not."

Feng Yi really didn't have any important discoveries yet. He just had a little new idea.

He decided to make a quick decision.

He had overlooked one thing before. There were indeed a lot of interfering smells in the Great Swamp, and the brain also stored a lot of smell information. The main ones were those species in the research center. He had been looking for pythons before by identifying and searching according to these smell information.

However, the species in the Great Swamp are definitely more numerous and more complex than those captured by the research center!

Different hybrids or mutants have different smells. Perhaps, during the previous search, some unfamiliar smells were overlooked.

After the heavy rain, the smells distributed in the Great Swamp were washed away.

But this may not be a bad thing for Feng Yi.

He wants to carefully distinguish the smell information that may be overlooked.

They stayed in the swamp for two days this time.

That night, Feng Yi opened his eyes in the middle of the night and came out of the double tent.

Steve noticed it, but didn't care.

Feng Yi might be in a hurry, or he might want to get something from the car, or he might make a private call. It's midnight here, but it's daytime in China. Maybe there are some whispers among young people?

Steve doesn't want to pry into those privacy.

After all, they are all adults, so respect each other's privacy.

No matter whether it is the emotional privacy of young people or the Feng family's property dispute that is very popular on the Internet.

Tsk, the grudges of the rich~

Steve doesn't want to know about those troubles.

The past two nights were peaceful, Feng Yi would also go to the car at night to get something or make a phone call, all of which were discussed in advance.

But Steve didn't know that was Feng Yi's excuse, he actually went to the car to replenish food.

There was no whispering or disputes with the rich.

Feng Yi was too busy with his own affairs, let alone paying attention to the Feng family's property dispute that had long been abandoned.

The sound of the car door opening came.

Steve thought: Sure enough.

Then continue to sleep.

Feng Yi ate biscuits in the car to replenish energy.

After eating, he was ready to go back to the tent to sleep.

The evening breeze blew, bringing the smell from afar.

Feng Yi paused.

Distinguish carefully.

It seems that there is some strange smell information in the wind.

After analyzing these smell information, Feng Yi translated it, which is roughly:

Hungry Tyrant out of the cave, minions retreat!

Feng Yi looked in the direction of the wind.

"This hungry tyrant is definitely not me."

So, which one is it?

In the silent night, Feng Yi's pupils narrowed and then dilated, and a smile slowly rose at the corners of his mouth.
