475 was so surprised that he couldn't stand still
Although Lazar was old and had come overnight and walked for several hours, the mental state and excitement he showed did not correspond to his current age at all.
He wanted to see the giant ape fossil that Liu Wei had discovered.
Liu Wei was about to enter the cave with Lazar's team, when the orangutan put down the uneaten banana in his hand, ran up, and stood at the door of the cave to block them.
Liu Wei smiled and stroked the orangutan's forehead, "Sean, have you forgotten what I told you last night? You promised me, believe me, your life in the rainforest will not be affected in any way!"
The corners of the orangutan's mouth fell, his eyes looked up at Liu Wei's face, and he pouted.
Liu Wei could see that it was not happy.
Lazar and his team members comforted it in a very kind tone.
Sean turned around, hung his head back to the banana, and continued to eat the banana.
After eating two of them, it still didn't seem to be able to accept it, so it went straight into the forest.
It's leaving.
Glancing back at Liu Wei, its favorite human friend, standing in the doorway.
Liu Wei smiled at it and waved at it.
It turned around and walked away.
Liu Wei: "Brothers, Sean will get used to it, and he will soon enter the mating period of the orangutan, and he will continue to be its scumbag!"
He smiled and followed him into the cave at the end.
When he arrived at the narrow passage, Lazar stopped, and stared at some superficial fossils on the stone wall as Liu Wei had done before.
Lazar pushed the frame of his glasses on the bridge of his nose, hooked his back, and the light in his hand hit the stone, he looked at it repeatedly, and confirmed: "It is roughly left over from that period of the Ice Age, and it is no wonder that fossils of giant apes can be found here, according to scientific research, an important reason for the extinction of giant apes is the advent of the Ice Age."
At the end of the great ape's life, there were multiple glacial periods in the Northern Hemisphere, and the climate was in a state of intense turmoil, which had a huge impact on plant growth!"
Lazar analyzed with his expertise.
The team members nodded.
Liu Wei was able to understand the technical vocabulary in his mouth, and added, "Although the giant ape is tall and mighty, it is a relatively docile animal, and this character has a lot to do with its living habits.
For example, the diet of the great ape is basically vegetarian, and the forest covers a large area, which can provide it with sufficient food, and due to the impact of the ice age on vegetation growth, the great ape starved to death because it could not obtain food. ”
The audience in the live broadcast room listened with a confused face.
It can be roughly guessed that Liu Wei and Lazar are discussing more specialized issues in English.
It turns out that few people in the live broadcast room understand the overly professional academic issues, and Liu Wei has popularized the science of snake venom several times before, and the audience's reaction is the same.
It's just that the audience doesn't care what you say, they just need to know that the giant ape species is very awesome, and Liu Wei is now doing something with experts in Malaysia that can shock the academic community.
To sum it up in one sentence.
Liu Wei is very awesome.
What the audience is watching is the word "awesome", because it is full of coolness.
After listening to Liu Wei's words, Lazar reflected the light in his hand on the lens, he looked at Liu Wei with very appreciative eyes, and asked curiously, "Liu Wei, do you also study vertebrates?"
Liu Wei smiled: "My main direction is extant wild animals, I have learned some knowledge about paleoanthropology, and in China, the research of giant apes has always been ahead of the world, and I am familiar with it!"
Lazar nodded, acknowledging Liu Wei's point of view, "The first country to discover the fossils of giant apes is China, and China is also the country with the earliest research on giant apes and the largest number of fossils found in the world today.
He sighed and praised Liu Wei.
Liu Wei smiled slightly and said modestly: "Academics know no borders, you are a senior, I will learn from you!"
"Hahaha, I like your words!" Lazar pointed his index finger at Liu Wei and shook it.
The group continued to walk inside.
Climb up the small ramp that Sean prayed on last night and enter the enclosed space.
The light on Liu Wei's head pinpoints the place where the fossil was found.
Seeing this, Lazar and his team members stood still, distracted, revealing surprised faces.
When Lazar came back to his senses, he walked up with anxious and cautious steps, "Don't come here yet!" , he instructed the team members.
He slowly crouched down and pushed the frame of his glasses on the bridge of his nose again, pursed his lips slightly, his eyes wandering back and forth between the mounds of dirt and rocks.
His spirit was all focused on fossils.
He squatted for a while, and when he got up, his elderly feet felt paralyzed, and he almost fell to the ground.
"Are you alright?" Liu Wei said with concern.
Lazar pinched his forehead, blinked, and said softly, "It's okay!"
After standing firm, he sighed: "It's spectacular, Liu Wei, I don't know how to thank you?"
Lazar knows all too well what kind of sensation these fossils will cause in the academic world if they are unearthed.
Vertebrate paleontology experts throughout Malaysia, as well as paleoanthropologists, will surely be proud of this.
Liu Wei smiled: "I should be grateful to Sean, I think the excavation of these fossils will definitely promote the development of the history of human evolution research, and I also hope that the Malaysian academic research community can provide relevant information, so that scientists who study paleoanthropology in the world can participate!"
Lazar said excitedly: "Of course, by the way, Liu Wei, how are you sure that this is a giant ape fossil?"
Liu Wei pointed to the canine tooth that he excavated and said: "From its teeth and jaws, in the middle of the last century, scientists from the Academy of Sciences who study vertebrates in China have discovered and excavated the mandible and many teeth of the giant ape in Guangxi, and the number of teeth is huge.
Lazar nodded, "Your theoretical knowledge is too solid, and we have also borrowed relevant materials from China for research and analysis.
China's research on great apes is among the best in the world, and there are many places where we need to learn from you, and we hope that this excavation can promote friendly exchanges between Chinese and Malaysian academic circles.
We look forward to working with you!"
Liu Wei smiled and said: "Win-win cooperation!"
Lazar was quite satisfied, patted Liu Wei's arm, turned around and walked to the team, and asked, "How is the preparation of the Academy of Sciences?"
"Just received a message from Academician Mohammed, they should be able to arrive in the afternoon!"
Lazar nodded, "Protect the site and dig it out when they come!"
"Okay!"
……
Liu Wei looked at the barrage on the live broadcast phone and smiled.
The audience is speculating about what words Lazar used to praise Liu Wei just now, and the rolling barrage basically only has two "slots" and "awesome!".
Liu Wei smiled and said: "You brain-forcing circuits are really powerful, I want to ask, how do you speak in English?
