After returning from the previous three-grain series, Chen Fei sorted out the strange things and unreasonable things encountered in this mission and handed them over to his superiors.

Indeed, it was his job.

And among them, of course, also includes the giant savage......

.......

What's interesting is that just a few minutes before Chen Fei reported the matter, a colleague actually reported something similar?!

It's just that this guy didn't encounter a giant wild man, but according to the tip, four huge footprints were found in the 90,000 mountains in the south!

And the size and shape of the footprints were exactly the same as the giant savage footprints provided by Chen Fei.

So, the organization attached great importance to this matter, and said what the hell is this doing, why did you stab the monkey's nest all at once?

That's right, through the analysis of the shape of the footprints, the technicians preliminarily determined that the giant wild man and the owner of the huge footprints should be some kind of large primate.

In the concept of ordinary people, when it comes to this primate, the first thing that comes to mind is monkeys.

Of course, the first thing that comes to mind for those who think they are superior is probably a gorilla, because in the eyes of some people, this orangutan seems to be more classy than the monkey, just as a pineapple is to a big pineapple......

.......

However, whether it is an orangutan or a monkey, it is impossible for them to have such a huge size, nor can they leave such a large footprint!

So, this stumped the technicians, because there are no primates of this size at the moment!

However, as the old saying goes, there is no heaven on earth.

In the same way, such a huge primate does not exist at the moment, but in the history of the earth, it has indeed existed!

No, a technician wearing glasses under a bottle suddenly thought of the "giant ape......

.......

The great ape (Gigantopithecus) is an extinct primate.

It is the most muscular ape ever seen on Earth, reaching nearly 10 feet (3.04 meters) tall and weighing more than 1,000 pounds (453 kilograms).

Indeed, this is more consistent with the giant savage that Chen Fei encountered in the Three Valleys Chain, both in appearance and weight.

The great apes lived in China, India and Vietnam about 1 million ~ 300,000 years ago, and were in a time frame and geographical location with several hominids....... Same.

In other words, both in time and space, this giant ape coexisted with prehistoric humans for a long time!

It's kind of incredible!

Because in the eyes of today's humans, sci-fi creatures like giant apes should only exist in legends!

Even if it existed, it would not have been a human form.

However, how long did this giant ape live with prehistoric humans?

To say that this is to sound like a frenzy, I don't think it's possible.......

.......

But again, everything ....... It's all possible.

No, another technician who didn't have much hair, but was stunned by a nineteen-minute comb, through a quick review of the file, actually made up some detailed information about the giant ape at this time......

.......

About 1 million years ago, a giant ape lived in the primeval forests of Southeast Asia, including the southern part of China.

This is the largest known primate in the world, measuring 3 meters long and weighing more than 300 kilograms!

Early humans lived next to this behemoth and spent 1 million years of happy hours together.

It wasn't until 100,000 years ago that this giant ape became completely extinct......

......

And when people rediscovered the traces of these old people, the time had come to the 30s of the last century.

In 1935, the Dutch paleontologist G. H. Konisval....... Hey, what's the that's a name? I guess when he went to school, the teacher never called him up to answer the questions.

In short, among the animal teeth sold in a Chinese medicine shop in Hong Kong, this master stumbled upon a huge dark yellow molar known as a "keel".

After research, the master determined that it belonged to some kind of large primate tooth and named it "Bu's great ape".

But what is incredible is that although this tooth is much larger than a human tooth, the two have many very similar features!

Because of this, anthropologist Wei Dengrui once renamed it "giant"!

It is even believed that this "giant" is the direct ancestor of mankind......

.......

It wasn't until the early 50s of the 20th century that a biologist accidentally learned that the so-called 'giant' tooth that the master had obtained from a Hong Kong pharmacy was actually purchased from a medicine farmer in Guangxi, China!

So, at the beginning of 1956, an expedition led by Mr. Pei Wenzhong, a famous paleontologist who discovered the Peking Man skull, came to the north of Nalongtun in Zhenglong Village, Lanwei Township, Daxin County, on the border of Guangxi.

Niusheng Mountain is a steamed bun-shaped round mountain with a large slope on all sides.

And about 40 meters from the top of the mountain, there is a cave.

Because the light does not shine, the cave is dark all year round.

So the locals called it the black hole (by my, tall).

The entrance of the black hole is about 90 meters high from the ground, and the empty chamber in the cave is large, and most of the accumulation has been dug up by the common people when they took the mud.

However, judging from the remaining part of the accumulation, the accumulation in the cave originally had two layers.

The bottom is purple sand clay, about 1.4 meters thick, not cemented, and cracked into squares after drying, containing fewer fossils.

On the purple sand clay is a layer of cemented and hard yellow sand, about 2 meters thick, containing more fossils.

The expedition conducted two expeditions and a short period of excavation, which led to the discovery of fossilized teeth of some orangutans.

In addition, the lower third molar, the lower first premolar, and the upper molars of the giant ape were also found!

To say, this is the first time that scientists have found the origin of this ancient animal fossil!

And this black hole is also named "Great New Great Ape Cave......

.......

In the summer of 1957, a villager in Shechong Village, Fengshan Township, Liucheng County, also in Guangxi, inadvertently dug up a giant ape's mandible when he went to the nitrate cave in Lengzhai Mountain near the village to dig rock mud!

And this is the first giant ape mandible found in the world!

At that time, a cadre saw the mandible and thought it was of great scientific value, so he mobilized the villager to donate it to the state.

In the end, this precious scientific specimen, after many people passed it on, and finally reached the hands of scientists who came to Guangxi for investigation at the end of this year.

So, like migratory birds, the expedition team came here regularly every winter.

After six consecutive years of excavation, on the basis of the original discovery of Giant Ape Cave No. 1, Giant Ape Cave No. 2 was discovered, and three mandible fossils of Giant Ape and more than 1,000 scattered Great Ape teeth were excavated.......

.......

To date, there are eight places in the world where great ape fossils have been found.

It is worth mentioning that there are only two abroad, and the remaining six are all in China!

In addition to the Gaoping Keel Cave in Hubei, the other five are in Guangxi.

It can be said that Guangxi is the hometown of the giant ape.......
