Chapter 229: An inexplicably awkward meeting
When the fish-like creature attacked Li Jing, it pounced, feeling that Li Jing had completely disappeared in front of him, he was a little dazed, probably wondering if he was faint from hunger......
But when it returned to the cave, Li Jing reappeared in the perception, but it was accompanied by a dark and ugly strange fish...... The dark river has no light all year round, and most of the creatures here are crystal clear, and creatures like the black fish certainly seem strange to it. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
However, they are all of the same kind, probably feeling the threat on the black fish monster, and the fish-like dragon creature tenses its body at once.
In terms of physique, this creature is a bit longer and larger than the Blackfish, but it is too thin and may be slightly worse than the Blackfish in terms of weight.
Unable to communicate with his voice in the water, Li Jing could only use gestures to command the black fish monster and let it go over to subdue the opponent, but don't kill it...... As for whether the black fish monster understood what he meant, Li Jing didn't have a score in his heart.
This creature still has a lot of attack power, and few of the creatures inherited from this ancient time are good. It thought it could handle the pitch-black guy, or so it thought.
But when they fought, it was immediately confused, the black fish monster was stronger than it, its attack power was stronger than it, and its skin was unbreakable, even if it bit casually, it couldn't bite into it...... The battle has just begun, but in fact it is over. If it weren't for Li Jing stopping the black fish monster a few times on the side, this fish-like guy would have been injured a lot even if he didn't die.
The Black Fish Monster is a monster-level creature, and using it against this contemporary creature is obviously a bit of a bully...... Although the fish-like dragon creature has the genes of the ancient era, it does not live from the ancient times to the present, and its abilities have degraded too much compared to the ancestors of the ancient times.
When the black fish monster pressed it against a crack, Li Jing opened the Living Dead Hunting Watch and pressed it for a long time. The hunting watch is waterproof and the signal can penetrate the water for a distance.
"Successful Acceptance"
Li Jing asked the black fish monster to let go of it, the big guy was ignorant at first, but he no longer resisted Li Jing's touch, and even coquettishly attacked him after a while.
It was only at this time that Li Jing had the opportunity to carefully observe its appearance. Especially the scales on it...... To be precise, it is a scale armor, somewhat similar to a pangolin, but the pieces are like crystals, and they are very beautiful under the refraction of water light. I have to say that the Creator is truly amazing.
Then Li Jing began to explore this cave, the space is not small, and compared to other places, there is more life here, it is estimated that it is the nest of these creatures, and there are some decomposition products of feces underground.
When you shine your headlamp forward, you will see a large crystal refracted the light back, along with many bones......
But it wasn't Li Jing who wanted to help the villagers find it, but the bones of this fish-like and dragon-like creature, as well as the scales left on the body, half-buried in the sand, it seemed that it had been dead for decades, and even the bones had been corrupted.
On the contrary, their scales are still well preserved, shiny, crystal-like, very beautiful.
Just now, Li Jing wanted to buckle a piece of the live fish...... Now that I finally see the ready-made, of course, I have to pack some and take it with me, which is also a very significant discovery and very valuable for research. Even these remaining bones, Li Jing didn't plan to miss them.
But when Li Jing picked up the broken sand on it, a skull startled him. But then he realized, wasn't that what he was looking for? The bones of a villager who disappeared 28 years ago!
"After this old man got involved in the Dark River, he probably let them be brought back here as food." Li Jing guessed in his heart, carefully peeled off the sand on it, looked for more bones, and carefully packed them in the net pocket prepared in advance.
However, there are not many bones left, and Li Jing can't search the entire underground cave, so he can bring as many as he can, so that future generations and grandchildren can't even worship if they want to, and it's so sad to use a fish to replace it.
"It's a fish ball?"
After packing up the bones, Li Jing saw large pieces of fish eggs on the rock platform next to him, each of which was as big as a glass ball, crystal clear, and even the small fish inside could be seen.
Feeling that Li Jing was close to his egg, and the guy who looked like a fish and a dragon behind him was also approaching, Li Jing thought that people were not happy, but it picked up one and sent it to him, Li Jing made it confused, what does this mean?
The master was so stupid that he took another in his mouth, and swallowed it......
Li Jing was dumbfounded, is this really your egg? Tiger poison doesn't eat children! But it's not hard to understand when you think about it, in an underfed environment, not to mention eggs, cubs will eat them. Moreover, thousands of years of habits have made them know that this environment cannot reproduce too many offspring, and they can only survive by eating some, and the environment has forced them to form such habits.
But that's not going to work, it looks like we'll have to find a way to protect these eggs, there are hundreds of them, and if they all hatch, that's pretty remarkable. If you take back the farm, you can even set up a protected area and an ornamental area, and this appearance, this rarity, is definitely no worse than the national treasure giant panda.
"But I'm afraid these eggs can't adapt to the changes in the environment, so I'd better stay here for now, and I can protect them with a wire cage." Li Jing thought about it in his heart.
But this is their own secret, after today, this dark river has become a national conservation area, and it will not be easy to come again in the future, at least not openly. In order to cover, Li Jing still loaded a dozen fish balls on his chest, divided half of them into Jiang Xishan and them for research, and planned to keep the remaining half for his own cultivation.
Eighty percent of the fish eggs are going to fail, and the environment is too different. But in the future, if you bring the cubs in the underground river outside, you can say that you have bred them yourself, otherwise you will breed this fish-like guy for no reason, and others will definitely say that he steals fish eggs, which is a matter of ruining his reputation, and Li Jing can't do it.
There was nothing else in the cave anymore, and there were some treasures buried under the sand, but he didn't have time to clean it up today. Don't look at the big oxygen cylinder today, but because of the delay in finding things, plus packing bones and other actions, he has to rush back now.
Leave one anchor point, and the rest will be cleaned up when you have the chance. This time it was with an official group of experts, and many of his actions were restricted.
However, when Li Jing walked out of this cave and was about to leave, he happened to bump into another one who had returned from predation, with a small one in his mouth. Judging by the size, it should be the one who escaped from Guma's Mountain to hunt for food.
Seeing his mother-in-law walking out of the cave with a black fish and a human being, the male fish was so stunned that even the food in his mouth fell to the ground......
This scene...... Li Jing felt embarrassed inexplicably.
Although the male fish is small, his temper is short-tempered, and he can't bear this scene anyway! Jump in with your teeth and claws! (To be continued.) )
