Nanzhi carefully climbed down the third floor and as she became closer to the water, she heard the hissing noises.
The surface of the flood water rippled and something lunged at her.
Nanzhi's eyes narrowed and a bolo machete appeared on her hand.
With one swing, the green snake's head was cut off. Blood splashed on the water and on her clothes.
But after three seconds, another rattle snake emerged and slithered on the steps. Because of the wounds it obtained, it seemed agitated and when it perceived a person nearby, its survival instinct was to defend itself.
Baring it fangs and flicking its tongue, it attacked Nanzhi.
Nanzhi dodged before swinging the bolo machete again. Compared to the snake before, this one had fast reflexes. Nanzhi failed at the first attempt and only managed to apprehend it at third try.
The carcass of the snake fell on the steps.
Hiss—
Hiss—
Three more crawled towards her.
