Chapter 574: Chapter 251: Departure Back to the Homeland

"Holy crap, a giant python!"

"It’s like a disaster movie with giant pythons, this big guy gives me the chills, and my hair’s standing on end."

"Be careful, host, with a big python of this caliber, ordinary firearms would struggle to inflict lethal damage in a short time if it were aggressive."

"Today’s live broadcast was worth it, a pure, native fish-scale giant python."

"Host, adjust the camera angle, give the big baby a close-up, it’s not easy to come across, this is rare footage."

While some viewers were trembling with fear, others, bolder, began to critique and discuss the jungle boa on camera.

After experiencing a brief moment of tension, Lin Yang gradually relaxed.

The drone was hovering, at least forty meters away from Lin Yang and the others in a straight line. The space where the python was located was the river valley channel, with most of its body in the water and only part of its torso visible on the surface, slithering along, adding a sense of mystery.

Under Lin Yang’s control, the drone’s focus was adjusted to give a full top-down view of the large creature.

Through the aerial shot, you could vaguely make out the outline of part of the jungle boa in the water, a big guy winding through it, showing no sign of leaving immediately.

After about ten seconds of standoff, a small splash arose on the surface, and a python head the size of a small grinding stone emerged from the water.

The low buzzing sound of the hovering drone seemed to have caught the jungle boa’s attention. It slightly raised its head and occasionally flicked its forked tongue, sensing the surrounding environment.

Seeing the jungle boa’s huge head, the intensity of the scene in the live broadcast camera peaked again.

Huge tongues, dark red tongues, cold eyes carrying a sense of death flashing under the shade of the trees, and scales as dense as armor all showcased the terror of this behemoth.

In super high definition, every frame was oppressively intense.

After observing for a few seconds, the giant python lost interest in the drone, turned its head, and swam downstream through the river valley.

In the shot, the giant python’s outline in the water was very clear, moving sinuously until it left the range of the high-definition camera.

"Whew..." Lin Yang let out a deep sigh, his body, which had been tense, quickly relaxed.

"Damn it, that was scary." Sun Zheng was also unnaturally pale, wearing an expression of relief mixed with fear.

To say he wasn’t scared would be a lie, even if Tataro said that a well-fed python rarely attacks humans, the fact remained that it was a giant creature, and a single swipe of its tail would be too much for an ordinary adult to bear.

As a guide, Sun Zheng was responsible for his clients’ safety, and encountering a giant creature like this was both an opportunity and a risk!

Once Lin Yang calmed down, he turned and looked at Yue’er, "Yue’er, are you alright?"

Yue’er silently wiped the sweat from her forehead with a tissue and tried to sound composed, "I’m fine, it’s just a big python, after all, it doesn’t eat people, and besides, it’s gone now."

"Glad to hear it. We’ve seen what there is to see in the river valley. I suggest we head back now, there’s still a long way to go."

"Yes, let’s head back to camp, it’s safe there." Yue’er was the first to raise her hand in agreement, and her words "it’s safe there" revealed her deepest desire for security.

Lin Yang laughed but didn’t say much more, and everyone began to pack up their things to head back.

Whether it was the guide, the local indigenous guides, or the guards, their primary task was to ensure the safety of their clients.

The current situation had clearly exceeded the planned limits, and ending the sightseeing trip early was the most sensible and correct decision.

After saying goodbye to the viewers in the live streaming room, Lin Yang quickly chose to end the broadcast.

After retrieving the drone, he saw Yue’er turning pale, her slender frame trembling uncontrollably.

Her calm demeanor in front of the camera was all an act, as the young girl, not wanting to hassle his broadcast, had forcibly controlled her fear of the giant python.

Seeing this, Lin Yang consoled her properly.

"Silly girl, if you’re scared just say you’re scared, no need to act tough. Let’s keep moving back, it’s alright now."

"Brother Yang, I’m scared."

The more he tried to console her, the more upset she became, her voice quivering as if she were about to cry.

"Don’t be afraid, I’m here. If the python wants to eat someone, it’ll eat me first. I weigh over 100 kilograms; it would burst trying to swallow me. You just run and it definitely won’t catch you."

With a snort.

Under Lin Yang’s deliberate effort to cheer her up, Yue’er couldn’t hold back and burst into laughter.

...

After the live stream ended, the team quickly packed up their belongings and got back on the boat, leaving two hours earlier than planned to start the journey back.

On the way back, whether it was the natives or Lin Yang and his companions, they all continued to discuss the large jungle boa they saw in the river valley.

According to Tataro, such an adult jungle boa over ten meters long was rare even for local natives to see, generally inhabiting deep, remote parts of the rainforest.

As for the downstream part of the river valley, considered a tourist spot, it had been seven or eight years since any sightings of the jungle boa.

The group returned by boat the same way they came, and they didn’t encounter any other unexpected incidents on the way.

By a little after four in the afternoon, they successfully returned to the camp. Yue’er had been significantly frightened by the giant python but finally felt a long-lost sense of safety once they reached the village where the locals lived.
