Chapter 20 Identification of rare animals: Vipera thunbergii! Just when everyone's hearts were gripped by Erha, a critical moment occurred! The Husky showed the agility and belligerence of the Kazakh shepherd dog. It just tilted its head and avoided the attack of the poisonous snake. Then he slapped the venomous snake out of the bushes with his claws. At that moment, Chen Chuan did not hesitate any longer. He took a step forward, holding Erha with one hand to make it retreat, and with the other hand he held the machete backwards, pointing the back of the knife at the venomous snake. The back of the knife collided with the poisonous snake, knocking it several meters away. At the moment when the knife in his hand touched the poisonous snake, a system prompt sounded in Chen Chuan's mind. [Unlock rare animal illustrations: Vipera thunbergii. ] [Reward: Agility +1, Viper Affinity cannot be increased (Hate is too high)] Hearing the system prompt, Chen Chuan frowned.
really! ? The Arctic adder is a venomous snake and one of the few snakes found near the Arctic. Fortunately, although this snake is poisonous, its toxicity is not fatal to adults. In other words, it will not be fatal in a short period of time. The Arctic viper that was knocked away got up again, but did not choose to seek revenge and attacked Chen Chuan again. Instead, he just raised his head and stared at Chen Chuan with his pair of vertical pupils. Without the cover of the bushes, Chen Chuan could see clearly this time. In addition, he was already ten meters away from the viper, so he relaxed a little. This distance is very safe. "As you can see, this is a venomous snake." As Chen Chuan spoke, he clenched the scimitar in his hand. "The Vipera is a reptile of the Viperidae family, a viper of the genus Viper. In my country, it is mainly distributed in Altay and Fuhai." "But if you are unlucky, it would not be surprising to encounter such snakes in other places in the North." He zoomed in on the screen in the live broadcast room and took a close-up of the pale yellow viper. "Look, isn't its head a triangle? The two corners other than the mouth are where the venom is. Although not all snakes with triangular heads are venomous, if they are venomous snakes, they are most likely to be triangular heads." "Look again, this kind of snake is usually yellow or gray, with wavy or jagged black stripes on its back and a row of spots on its sides. This is the key point, and you'll need to learn it next time you encounter a viper." "Like this snake, it's pale yellow with jagged waves and spots on both sides. I can tell it's a viper at first glance." "By the way, you may not be able to see it in the live broadcast room, so let me describe the length of this snake to you. It is about half a meter. This is also the average length of all adult vipers." "They mainly live in temperate and cold zones, forests and grasslands. They like to eat small animals with large front teeth, such as mice and rabbits. Of course, if frogs and lizards are offered to them, this snake will not refuse them." Chen Chuan said a lot in one breath. He picked up the water glass and took a big gulp. The Arctic viper was still watching the man and the dog not far away. It seemed that it had tasted bitterness and did not dare to attack again. The viewers in the live broadcast room gave high praise to Chen Chuan's behavior.
"Is the anchor serious? He just escaped death, and now he turns around and leisurely teaches us science." "I can see that the host would rather die than not show off his knowledge." "The host is really doing this. He is risking his life to educate us." "Didn't you notice what the host did just now? He pulled the Husky away and then drove away the Arctic viper. I think this makes us feel too safe." Chen Chuan looked at this scene and thought he had to think of a way to get out of this situation. Whether before or at the beginning, Erha and the snake were always at loggerheads. If he sent Erha away first, would the snake's hostility towards him be lessened? He looked at Erha and did what he thought. He stretched out his foot and kicked backwards. Erha always understood Chen Chuan's meaning at critical moments. It nodded, staring at the Arctic viper while slowly retreating. It seemed to be attracted by the movement, and it seemed to confirm Chen Chuan's guess. As Erha retreated step by step, the Viper's eyes were also attracted. Chen Chuan nodded. "When facing this kind of venomous snake, we must be cautious. Turning around and running away immediately will only arouse the snake's ferocity." "Just take it slow like I did. Erha is the target of this viper, so let's let Erha go first, and then the viper's aggressiveness will be reduced a lot." Chen Chuan was imparting his experience to the people in the live broadcast room, and the next second, he was slapped in the face. The Arctic Viper just glanced at Erha for a few times, then turned its head away, its pair of snake eyes still staring at Chen Chuan, revealing its cold-bloodedness. Chen Chuan was speechless. The dog that was fighting with you just now was this dog. I just came here to assist. Why are you staring at me instead of it? He laughed dryly twice and explained to the people in the live broadcast room. "Haha, don't panic if you encounter this kind of situation. As we all know, snakes are very spiritual animals." "The behavior of the Vipera shows that it has realized that I am the most threatening of the three creatures present." Chen Chuan appeared to be calm and composed on the surface, but in his heart he was worried about himself. He finally understood that the snake was targeting him. Being targeted by such a viper was not good news. The Arctic viper is a national second-class protected animal. Chen Chuan is unwilling to kill such a rare species from the bottom of his heart. By the way, if this happens in the wild, killing protected animals is not illegal. Chen Chuan slowly retreated, holding the scimitar tightly in his hand. The Arctic Viper raised its head high and looked at Chen Chuan. Suddenly, Chen Chuan remembered that he had a skill, Animal Calming Word. This skill could calm animals that were in a state of frenzy or anger. Thinking of this trick, his eyes lit up and he suddenly felt confident. Having this skill in hand is like having a golden medal of immunity from death, which can make a venomous snake that wants to bite you at any time become obedient instantly. Seeing the distance getting farther and farther, from ten meters to about fifteen meters, and with the trump card in his hand, Chen Chuan was no longer panicked. "As long as you move slowly like I did, you probably won't alarm such a venomous snake. If you encounter a venomous snake in the wild in the future, you can do the same as I did."
"Thank you, host. You are really good at talking." "Thank you, host. I hope you will encounter poisonous snakes every day." "Thank you, host. I wish you can escape from poisonous snakes every day." Chen Chuan had already retreated to the side of Erha, touching Erha's head, a gratified smile on his face. This year's netizens are really good and of high quality. (End of this chapter)
