After La Muerte del Perro Negro, El Dragón Criollo was the only one who  could take his place, but he didn’t. He said El Perro Negro was  irreplaceable. Then he was lost for days, weeks and months, everybody  thought he was dead, but he was not dead, he was celebraiting along side  El General, a ritual for leaving the past behind. They were going like  muevelo muevelo, pum pum mami mami y no me trates de engañar. This  period of absence of more than six months gave him the name of El Mata  Culebras, name given to him by a Chola Caderona in Panama City the day  he stopped the celebration for half a day to rescue her from the bad  intentions of a cobra, that wanted to kill her. He became known as one  of the most incredible snake charmers around in the Caribbean and the  Pacific coast dominating all cobras and other poisonous snakes making  them his disciples. Even Arabs, Hindus and specially Persians knew him  for his abilities in snake charming. Many people by that time thought he  had a pact with the devil, but after a few years nobody was saying that  anymore. Instead they were saying he was the devil himself, El Diablo!
