Chapter 225: Shield Fish Fossil
Li Jing infiltrates the dark river and finds fish fossils. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 InfoWhen he lifted the sediment buried on it, he was surprised by the appearance of this fish fossil, which was hideous, fierce, and had the characteristics of ancient creatures.
Experts on the ground were even more excited, this fossil was more valuable than they imagined.
"Li Jing, bring it up, try to be careful." Jiang Xishan said into the microphone.
Li Jing, who received the information, made an OK gesture in front of the camera, and then pried the fossil up, but it was a large piece. Fish fossils are mostly glued together with other stones, rather than standing on their own. It's nothing, but it's very human to want to lift these fifty or sixty pounds of stuff to the ground.
Fifty or sixty catties is nothing to Li Jing, but the key is that it is in the water, and it is still sixty or seventy meters deep underground, which is very difficult.
"It's such a big piece, you can't move it!" Jiang Xishan also found a problem, it was very difficult to move such a large stone underwater. It is true that the water is buoyant, but the water of the dark river is flowing, and the water flows to a lower place. It was already difficult for Li Jing to swim against the current, let alone carrying such a large stone.
"But you can't do professional cutting below, see if you can use a rope to pull it on the ground, which can reduce the force on Li Jing."
"No, the environment below is complicated, and the distance is too far, and the rope pulling is easy to cause landslides."
While the ground expert group was still discussing, Li Jing under the water had already lifted the boulder and carefully sent it back. This is not only a test of strength, but also diving skills, because most of the time the feet are empty, and no matter how much strength you have, it is futile.
But the advantage of strength still gave Li Jing a great help, and he moved the fossil back step by step, although the speed was slow, but it was not completely helpless.
It took Li Jing less than half an hour to go down, but the return time was more than doubled, and he didn't return to the bottom of the waterhole after an hour.
"It's out! It's out! ”
When Li Jing appeared at the bottom of the waterhole with the fossils they had been looking forward to, everyone was very excited! Hurriedly threw down the rope prepared in advance, and asked Li Jing to tie the fossil, they pulled it, Li Jing only needed to carefully hold it below to avoid bumping, and the big fossil would easily come out of the water.
When Li Jing surfaced, under the active leadership of Jiang Yuanxin, warm applause rang out in the cave, and everyone was very excited. One is that Li Jing returned safely, and he also successfully returned the fossils to complete the task, and this mission can be described as a successful completion.
When the fossil was carefully moved to the ground, everyone was so surprised that they couldn't even care about Li Jing still in the water.
"Are you still looking for the water monster?" Li Jing asked with a smile.
The expert group came to their senses, and the first task of the trip was to find the unknown creature, but the discovery of fossils was too heavy to ignore the business.
"Come on first, the equipment needs to be checked, you also need to rest, and we don't have any plans now, so we'll make plans tomorrow." Jiang Xishan thought for a while.
"Wait, please trouble Li Jing to install this underwater camera at the mouth of the dark river, we can also monitor it when we are away, if we can shoot this unknown creature, of course it is the best, so far we can't confirm that it is inside." The technical assistant of the Academy of Sciences said as he handed over a wired underwater camera to Li Jing.
"That's fine, please go down again Li Jing." Jiang Xishan also said.
However, it is not difficult to go down to the bottom of the pool, and Li Jing also readily agreed, and it will only take a few minutes to go down and pretend to come up again.
After obtaining the fish fossil, the expert team can study it in the room without even eating lunch, and they need to confirm the identity of this fossil fish before it was born.
"This is a shield fish juvenile, living in the Silurian to Nipan of the Paleozoic Era, three to four hundred million years ago, this is a very big discovery! Moreover, such a well-preserved shield fish fossil is not found in the world, which is a very significant discovery! Jiang Xishan excitedly announced the results of the investigation.
"You say, could that unknown creature be a shield fish?" Someone excitedly asked.
"Shouldn't it? This thing has been extinct for far too long, and there is no evidence of its survival in the world. ”
Is it possible for organisms from hundreds of millions of years ago to reproduce today? Yes, such as Chinese sturgeon, baby fish, Chinese alligator, even if it looks like a national treasure giant panda that can only sell cuteness, it has a history of at least more than 8 million years, so it is possible that the shield fish has survived to this day.
"Whatever that happens, we'll find out tomorrow."
"But if you go any deeper, it's very dangerous. Moreover, there is a limit to the number of radio repeaters, at most three or five can be installed, and we still don't know how long the dark river is. The technical assistant said.
"What do you think of Li Jing?" Jiang Xishan asked.
"I don't care, I can go in again." Li Jing was not afraid, and even he had already left the coordinate point below, even if the expert group didn't let him go down, he might secretly go down and continue to explore this mysterious underground world, which he found very interesting.
"Okay, get ready, and go down again tomorrow morning." Jiang Xishan Road.
After an experience, everyone trusted Li Jing very much, and actively prepared for the plan to launch tomorrow. Only Jiang Yuanxin still has a big opinion, she knows that Li Jing is powerful, but no matter how powerful she is below, there may be an accident!
The next day, Li Jing went down to the Dark River again. With his first experience, this time he was much more calm and faster, arriving at the place where the shield fish fossil was found yesterday in less than twenty minutes, and then continued to go deeper.
"It's 500 meters deep, 80 meters from the ground, the repeater has reached its limit, the video data transmission is intermittent, and the communication with the ground can be interrupted at any time, please be prepared."
The sound in the headphones had begun to be choppy, and after Li Jing gestured in front of the camera, he continued to go deeper into the dark river. He saw that there were some small white fish living here, but unfortunately they were too chicken thieves and fled far away before they could get close, otherwise they should catch one and bring it back to the surface for research.
After another two minutes, the ground surveillance was completely ineffective, and even the sound could not be heard. If it is the sea, this distance can still easily transmit information, but the dark river tunnel is tortuous, and the interference with the signal is extremely serious.
"I hope Li Jing can return safely!"
Before, it didn't feel very dangerous, but now that there is no information, the expert group feels panicked.
"Immediately locate his location and draw a map of the dark river of Gupo Mountain according to the route." Jiang Xishan immediately advised.
Sound surveillance cannot be transmitted, but Li Jing also has a special positioning system on his body, which can search for signals in a certain area of the ground above his head, and determine his location and activity route from this. This is a set of equipment modified according to Lao Mei's popular science and environmental protection program that decrypts the underground dark river, and it has no effect on being too big, but it can confirm whether Li Jing below is safe.
For example, if the signal is motionless, eighty percent of it can burn paper money for Li Jing, and the signal is still moving, at least it can mean that Li Jing is still operating underground.
