The tone is strong and the words are sharp.
The anger is direct!
The village chief's entire demeanor was completely different from before, and he no longer showed any politeness.
The bravery of the native residents of the tropical rainforest, as if they can smell the scent of blood, is undoubtedly revealed!
The head of a village is so terrifying!
Unfortunately, there is a language barrier.
In addition, the accent became heavier due to the emotional outburst, and even Feng Shou, who knew a little bit of the local language, was unable to immediately understand what the other party meant.
The deterrent effect is greatly reduced.
Except for Cai Bin, the translator whose mood fluctuated the most, Feng Yi and Feng Shou both showed the same confusion.
Then he looked at Cai Bin.
What's going on
Why does the village chief look like someone has suddenly stabbed his lungs
Even if we talked about sensitive topics, it was out of concern for health, so the emotions shouldn't be so strong, right
However, Cai Bin, who knew the temperament of the local residents, raised his radar and started to sound the alarm.
It shouldn't be that serious, right? Why is it that serious?!
He also believed that the village chief had overreacted, but the current situation showed that they still underestimated the impact of certain topics on the indigenous people.
To be the village chief here, he has both a smooth side and a stubborn side. He did not expect such a complete change of face.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the room was extremely solemn.
Because the village chief suddenly smashed the table, the room became messy.
The village chief suddenly lost his temper just now, but Feng Yi reacted faster. Before the village chief slammed the table, he first picked up the rice bowl in front of him... cough, the dinner plate, he first picked up the dinner plate in front of him, and even the coconut shells containing the food in the dinner plate, he also picked them up steadily, and not a drop of soup was affected.
Feng Shou, who was sitting next to him, was not that quick. He silently wiped the few drops of soup that splashed on his face with a tissue, then looked at Feng Yi with a pleading look.
There is no other way. Feng Shou cannot handle this situation.
Even if Feng Yi hadn't said that just now, his conversation with the village chief was not very harmonious.
At this moment, the village chief's sharp eyes swept across the three outsiders present, and then fell on Feng Yi again.
A moment ago, the village chief thought this person looked the most pleasing to the eye, but now he thinks the other person is abominable!
To him, what Feng Yi said just now was a huge insult!
If it were the other two people at the table, the village chief would have already used the coconut shell containing the food to violently slam them down!
But thinking back to what he saw last night, the village chief suppressed his surging dissatisfaction and violent anger, hiding these sharp emotions in every wrinkle on his face.
Take a deep breath and calm your tone.
The village chief stared at Feng Yi and said, "Mr. Feng, you said you came here with friendship."
Feng Yi was not frightened by the village chief's horrified expression. As for what he said just now, he was just stating a fact.
However, we still underestimated the local culture here. We should be more tactful and respect the local indigenous cultural beliefs.
"Of course." Feng Yi put down the plate and took out a certificate from his pocket, "I'm a snake expert."
He did not specifically say that he was involved in catching snakes, nor did he show the certificate issued by the Joint Guarantee Bureau, which was highly rejected by the locals. Instead, he took another certificate.
This time he came out with several certificates and presented different proofs according to different situations.
The village chief took a look at the opened certificate. It looked quite authoritative and there was also English on it, so he could understand some of it.
The village chief's expression eased a little: "So, you are a doctor?"
Cai Bin originally planned to translate it as "veterinarian", but when he thought of the villagers' beliefs and the village chief's overreaction just now, he translated it as "doctor" to be on the safe side.
Feng Yi didn't dwell on this word. In this situation, he neither admitted nor denied it. He just said tactfully again: "From an expert's perspective, objectively speaking, that... that person's body mass index may be a little high and needs to be slightly controlled."
After proving his identity, Feng Yi decided to talk about the health of the giant python.
When he pulled the python out of the rainforest, what came to his mind was a picture he saw during a lecture - the distribution of fat on snakes with different body mass indexes.
Feng Yi knew all this because he always heard Steve talk about this one being too light and that one being overweight. A few days ago, he attended a seminar and a reptile researcher also mentioned obesity in snakes, so Feng Yi reminded the village chief not to feed the pigs too frequently, because the python was obviously overweight!
There is still something to be gained from listening to lectures and reports. Feng Yi selected some key information and told it to the village chief.
Since it was about the health of the python, the village chief listened very seriously.
But the more he listened, the tighter his brows furrowed.
The village chief was suspicious: "Really?"
Feng Yi: “From an expert’s perspective…”
The village chief looked displeased: "Don't mention experts!"
Feng Yi: "OK, let's analyze it from a professional perspective."
Continue to state the interests involved.
You regard that python so seriously, you must pay attention to its health. Don't let it get old while you're raising it. It's rare for it to grow so big.
As we all know, pythons are powerful and have muscles all over their bodies, but overweight individuals will still accumulate a lot of fat.
People who live here should know very well what size wild pythons are in the rainforest.
Feng Yi asked: "Don't you find that person is too... heavy?"
The village chief said proudly: "That is the scroll of the gods!"
Feng Yi: …
never mind.
The filter is too thick to be broken.
Avoiding this question, Feng Yi said: "You still have to control it and don't feed it too often."
The snake was quite greedy. In addition to the pigs fed by the villagers, it probably also ate a lot of animals that were unlucky enough to pass by.
However, given the frequency with which the villagers fed it pork, the snake's health would become more serious, so Feng Yi still insisted.
This time, the village chief did not regard it as an "offense". He listened to what Feng Yi said just now, but he did not show it on his face, and others could not tell whether he believed it or not.
But judging from the emotional information, the village chief tends to believe it.
So Feng Yi did not continue to persuade him. As long as the village chief listened to what he said just now and took it to heart, he would definitely pay attention to the feeding frequency.
Feng Yi's appropriate stop also made the village chief more satisfied.
Sure enough, after looking around, Feng Yi is still the most pleasing to the eye!
The atmosphere relaxed a lot in the following time. Although the village chief still did not agree to let Feng Shou go with him to find the fruit tree, he promised Feng Shou that he would take a live video while looking for the fruit tree, and dig some soil at the location of the fruit tree.
After the price was agreed upon, the village chief was very easy-going as long as sensitive topics were not involved.
Feng Shou also understood that they could say anything, just don't bring up their beliefs.
Therefore, Feng Yi, who was originally curious about why the villagers worshipped the python as a god, no longer asked too many questions. Even if he wanted to ask, he could not ask the village chief.
Come out of the village chief's house and return to their temporary residence.
Cai Bin whispered, "I didn't see the village chief's grandson, just the kid I found in the rain forest last night."
Feng Yi said: "In the next room."
Cai Bin thought Feng Yi had seen it, so he didn't ask any more questions. He just sighed in a low voice: "The villagers here are not so easy to get along with. The village chief is quite scary when he loses his temper."
Passing by a statue of "God and Snake" in the village, Feng Yi slowed down his pace, looked at the villagers moving around nearby, and his eyes fell on one of the young villagers.
It can be seen that this young villager has more contact with the outside world. His clothing style and accessories have more external elements. It is very likely that he is not one of the people who enter and leave the restricted areas of the village.
The young man's target was also Feng Yi and his group. He held some small accessories with local characteristics and asked if they were interested.
He communicated with the outside world more frequently and understood a little bit of the common language. Although he had an accent, he was able to express his meaning haltingly and communicate directly without the need for Cai Bin to translate word for word.
Feng Yi bought some small items. They brought cash with them this time, so these small items didn't cost much.
Feng Yi carried some change with him but didn't show it off. The villagers looked at him in a friendly manner without showing any greed.
While buying these small items, Feng Yi casually mentioned it, looking at the statue not far away: "Do you worship snakes?"
The young villager corrected him: "We believe in the snake god! Snakes are just messengers sent by the gods!"
When it comes to beliefs, the villagers won't tell outsiders too much, but this sentence is enough to give Feng Yi a general idea.
Feng Yi didn't believe in snake gods, messengers or anything like that at all.
I don’t know which tribe member came here to perform snake charms and was seen by the villagers, who then regarded him as a god.
The so-called forbidden area should be the place where the tribe members used to frequent.
The so-called messenger may be a lucky snake that broke in while foraging. The villagers regard it as a messenger of the gods and feed it to the pigs as a sacrifice.
Of course, these are just Feng Yi's guesses.
This village has lived here for too long, and the time points where the stories take place are too far apart, so the information left is limited. There are only these very crude statues and stories passed down from generation to generation by the villagers living here.
But the content of the story may not be the truth.
For example, the snake that the tribesman played with was described as a "messenger" in the stories passed down by the villagers. In reality, was it a pet or food
But I have to say that the snake we caught last night was indeed quite fat and had a lot of fat content.
Feng Yi stared at the rain forest, then looked away and returned to his residence with the others.
A giant python that was swallowing a pig in the rainforest suddenly felt a sense of crisis, which made it want to vomit the food and run away.
But this sense of crisis appeared suddenly and disappeared quickly.
what to do
The meat in my mouth is so delicious...
Its underdeveloped brain cannot think too much in such a short time.
After a brief pause.
Follow your instinct, since there is no crisis, just keep eating!
Ahhhh, keep swallowing the pig!
So delicious!
It was originally accustomed to hiding during the day and coming out at night, but it was too frightened the night before and had no interest in finding food. It found a place and stayed there until daytime, and wanted to continue sleeping.
However, the trees here are tall and dense, blocking the sunlight. It is cool below, and the familiar smell of food is tempting, so the appetite comes and runs out to eat the pig.
Although there were some minor setbacks in the swallowing process, I was still very happy eating. After swallowing the pig, I found a place to continue staying at home.
