A snake climbed up a man's trousers when he rested on an outdoor chair in south China.

The video, captured in the city of Bazhong in Sichuan Province on April 25, shows a snake's tail hanging out of a man's trousers as he sat still on the chair to call the police and firefighters for help.

Passersby surrounded him to try to help but they were afraid the snake might bite the man.

Finally, an elderly man walked close to the man and dragged the snake out of his trousers quickly and then stamped on it.

The man did not notice the snake was in his trousers until a passerby spotted it and told him.

The snake was a non-poisonous elaphe carinata, reports said.

2020年4月25日下午1点左右，在巴中市平昌县骏东广场旁的天桥下，一名男子正在座椅上休息，不知道从哪里来的一条蛇，忽然钻进了他的裤腿里，只露出大半截尾巴在外边。
路过市民发现后告诉男子，吓得男子不轻，在原地动都不敢动。为此，群众也纷纷赶来围观，出谋划策，又担心男子被蛇咬伤，因此，现场群众又都不敢轻举妄动。有人说：不能扯尾巴，怕它咬人；有人说：快些打消防电话；还有人说：用剪刀把裤子剪了……

期间，有位围观群众试图把蛇拽出来，但被其他人制止了，主要是不知道蛇有多长，是否有毒，最后还担心，蛇没有拽出来，反而咬伤男子，如果中毒那就更麻烦了。最后还是一位路过的大爷凑近一看，果断逮住蛇尾巴，以迅雷不及掩耳之势，一把就把它拽了出来。

在此期间，男子拨打了110和119等报警电话求助，平昌特警也赶到了现场，将蛇带走处置。据现场围观人士讲述，这是一条无毒的松花蛇，为什么会出现在闹市区，不得而知。 （视频由巴中台提供）
