Chapter 208: Yan Fei's Guess - Aircraft Carrier Dragon
Because there was no specific work for Ma Xiaolan and others, Ning Ning seemed to be at ease, and in the morning, those cleaners went to work, Ning Ning introduced Ma Xiaolan and others to them, and then clapped their hands and let them go to work.
"Sister Ning, then let's go around and look around?"
"Well, you don't have anything specific, just look around, familiarize yourself with the environment of Repulse Bay, if there are guests who need help, you can help, if you can't help, call us, and also, you remember what I told you last night, right? There are some things that your brother-in-law is very concerned about, no matter how curious you are, don't move them. ”
"yes, got it." Ma Xiaolan said obediently, Ning Ning told them yesterday that as long as they don't add to the chaos, everything else is fine, this requirement is extremely simple.
Qiubai ate and saw that they were all gone, before he said to Ning Ning: "We have another big pangolin, named Iron Claw, which is a female, and it fits well with Steel Claw, and the two guys have already hooked up." ”
"Really?" Ning Ning said in surprise.
"Well, I just went to get it in the morning, didn't I buy another five hundred pangolins with Jiang Yuan yesterday."
"Oh, then I'll have to check it out later."
"By the way, what about Professor Yan, why didn't they see a shadow?"
"They went out early, didn't they? I didn't see them when I got up anyway, Orange Orange, did you see Yan teaching them? ”
Orange Cheng was teasing Xiaobai with the fish, putting the fish next to Xiaobai's mouth, waiting for Xiaobai to bite and quickly take it away, Xiaobai was also very cooperative, and she didn't know if she was teasing Xiaobai or Xiaobai teasing her, she shook her head when she heard the words: "No, oh, isn't that Professor Yan?" ”
Yan Fei walked in from the outside, and Qiu Bai saw that Tan Ming and the three of them were not there behind her, so she asked, "Professor Yan, what about them?" ”
"Tan Ming, they are going around, and I don't understand geology, so I didn't go with them, and you have to go to the ground for a while, right? Then I'll go too. After that, he pointed to the tea tree again: "Qiubai, you Eight Immortals are very popular across the sea, and they all say that this is a sacred tree." ”
Qiubai smiled, "There are a lot of exaggerated things on the Internet, can you believe this?" ”
"Believe it, why don't you believe it, you are an outstanding person here, I don't think it's strange if you have any treasures, but Qiubai, the tea made by this baby tea tree must be very good, right? Aren't you going to treat my old man to a drink? ”
"Wait until you have time."
"I have time now."
"I said I'll have time, but I don't have time right now."
If Tan Ming was going crazy, he would definitely be mad at this time, but Yan Fei smiled and said, "Qiubai, no wonder Tan Ming doesn't like you, it's really annoying." ”
"Actually, I hate him a lot." Autumn White shrugged.
Yan Fei shook her head and stopped talking, and saw Qiu Bai call Bajin over, "Bajin, take a good look at the tea tree and that flower bed, whoever dares to touch the things inside, you will kick him." ”
Eight pounds bleated.
"This guy" Yan Fei was speechless.
But when Yan Fei and Qiu Bai went underground and saw the iron claw, Yan Fei's face suddenly changed, became very dignified, and took a deep look at Qiu Bai: "Qiu Bai, I think we have to talk about it." ”
Talk again? Qiubai said with a headache: "Professor Yan, I really don't have time. ”
"I'm not joking with you, if you don't talk to me now, then you just wait for the Chinese Academy of Sciences to send someone to talk to you." Yan Fei's words were already a bit threatening.
"Okay, Orange Orange, you take the steel claw and iron claw down first, I have already asked the steel claw to teach the iron claw, it should be fine, you dig first, I'll talk to Professor Yan for a while."
Qiu Bai took Yan Fei back to the house, Ning Ning saw it and asked, and learned that the two had something to talk about, so she poured a glass of water for Qiu Bai and Yan Fei and went out.
Qiubai turned the cup and said casually: "Professor, if you have something to say, just say it." ”
"Qiubai, do you have something in your hands?"
"What do you mean?" Qiu Bai narrowed his eyes.
"You don't have to deny it, the steel claw is the first time, and now the iron claw is another time, Nanchuan has not heard of any place where animals devour each other, but there is one in Repulse Bay, how do you explain it?" Yan Fei looked out the window and said faintly: "Qiubai, if you really have this kind of thing, listen to my advice and hand it over, this thing is not something you can grasp, and it will not be good for you." ”
"Professor Yan seems to have decided that I have the kind of thing you said, but unfortunately, I don't seem to have it, by the way, what is that thing you are talking about?"
"Qiubai, it seems that you still don't understand the seriousness of the matter, do you think that such a big thing happened in Nanchuan, and the country will ignore it? How is it possible, as far as I know, there are already several research groups in our Provincial Academy of Sciences studying the problem of the enormity of animals in Nanchuan, not to mention the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the affiliated research institutes of major military regions, it can be said that the degree of attention is more than you think, now there is just no result, if there is a result, Nanchuan will be blocked by the state within a few hours, don't look at the Internet is making fun now, it is all under the control of the state, so you don't have any luck. ”
"What's the matter with me? I'm just a farmer, and now I can barely be called a boss, and the blockade will be blocked, what am I afraid of without me? Professor Yan, I think you really misunderstood, where do I have something, by the way, you haven't told me yet, what is that thing? ”
Yan Fei groaned: "A skeleton." When she spoke, Yan Fei stared at Qiu Bai tightly, observing Qiu Bai's reaction, but Qiu Bai's expression was dazed, there shouldn't be a fake, did you really guess wrong?
"A skeleton?" Qiu Bai laughed suddenly: "Professor, don't joke with me, I have nothing to do with that thing, if you want it, I would have given it to you a long time ago." ”
"Or something similar to bones, have you ever seen Qiubai? Have you seen it before, have you eaten it? ”
"What kind of bones are you talking about? Human bones? I've seen that, and there should be one in the mound at the back. ”
"A keel, a dinosaur's bone to be exact."
"Dinosaurs? Then Professor Yan you should go to the dinosaur museum in the city, our Nanchuan is known as the hometown of dinosaurs, there are not only dinosaur bones, but also dinosaur eggs, I have been there once before, the ticket price is only 100 yuan, it is quite worthwhile, but the dinosaur lanterns during the Spring Festival will be better, if Professor Yan can stay until the Spring Festival, you might as well go and have a look. Qiubai gushed.
Qiubai is really not false, Nanchuan is indeed known as the hometown of dinosaurs, the dinosaur museum in Nanchuan and the National Dinosaur Museum Park in the United States, the dinosaur park in Canada are equally famous, collectively known as the world's three major dinosaur museums, in addition to the Spring Festival every day, Nanchuan will hold a dinosaur lantern festival, which is also a major event, if you want to see dinosaurs, come to Nanchuan is right.
"But Professor, I don't understand, what does this have to do with dinosaur bones? If I had it, I would have donated it to the Dinosaur Museum, and maybe I'd get my ticket free in the future. ”
Yan Fei was a little upset when she heard what Qiu Bai said: "It's not an ordinary dinosaur skeleton. ”
"Oh? What kind of dinosaur is that? Tyrannosaurus? Tyrannosaurus rex? Or an earthquake dragon? ”
"Aircraft carrier dragon."
"Aircraft carrier dragon? What kind of dinosaur is this? Qiubai was confused, because he really didn't know what kind of dinosaur it was.
Thanks to the movie, Qiubai has a little impression of most dinosaurs, what Diplodocus, Earthquake Dragon, Plesiosaurus, etc., anyway, I've heard of the name, but the aircraft carrier dragon can't remember where he saw this dinosaur even if Qiubai rummaged through his memory.
"It's normal not to know, because it's just a dinosaur that I'm guessing."
"Guess? Uh, that is, no? ”
"Well, so to speak, because no fossil of an aircraft carrier dragon has been found on Earth, it can only be guessed, and as for whether it ever existed, even I don't know."
"It turns out that Professor Yan can also imagine out of thin air, I thought that scholars like you were very strict about knowledge, it seems that I was wrong."
"It is precisely because of our rigorous attitude towards science that I will guess the appearance of an aircraft carrier dragon."
"Oh" Qiubai pursed his lips, noncommittal.
Yan Fei was so angry by Qiu Bai's attitude that she suddenly became angry, "Let me ask you, what is the biggest creature on the ground now?" ”
"Black eyebrows?"
"Except for megafauna."
"Oh, on the ground, huh? That's the elephant. ”
"What about the sea?"
"Blue whale, Professor Yan, don't ask such a question, okay? Don't talk about me, elementary school students can answer it. ”
"How much bigger is a blue whale than an elephant?"
"Uh, several times."
"I'll tell you, the difference in weight can be more than forty times, and I'll ask you again, what was the largest dinosaur on land in the Jurassic era?"
"It's supposed to be a diplodocus, right? Either it's the Earthquake Dragon, or these two anyway. ”
"What about the dinosaurs in the sea at that time, which was the biggest?"
Qiubai pondered: "Plesiosaur? It looks like it lives in the sea, right? ”
"It's a glamour, boy, but the glamourdon won't be more than twenty-five meters long, and the earthquake dragon can be more than forty meters long, what do you think?"
"I thought about dinosaurs that were big, big." Qiubai said very seriously.
"So you can't be a scientist, in our eyes, you will think that this situation is extremely abnormal, the resources in the sea are richer than the land, the origin of civilization is from the ocean, every era has its marine overlord, the Cambrian is a strange shrimp, the body length has reached two meters, and the length of the organisms in the ocean at that time will not exceed a few centimeters, to the Ordovician era, the overlord of the ocean has changed again, called the nautilus, their length is more than ten meters, and the length of the animals on land will not exceed half a meter, The gap between marine and terrestrial life is getting bigger and bigger, until the Jurassic era, which is the most prosperous era of dinosaurs, but we found that the animals on land are more huge than the animals in the ocean, which is not at all in line with the evolutionary history of the earth, so we guess that it is not that the land creatures were larger than the marine creatures at that time, but the largest creatures in the ocean, we did not find, it must also be a dinosaur, we call this undiscovered dinosaur the aircraft carrier dragon, I think this aircraft carrier dragon is the biggest ocean overlord of the Luo era, but unfortunately, no fossil skeleton has been found,"
Qiubai followed Yan Fei's train of thought, and felt that what Yan Fei said seemed to really make sense, looking at the evolution history of the earth, it seems that the Jurassic era was extremely special, dinosaurs suddenly appeared, and the largest animal on land until Jin was still a dinosaur more than 60 million years ago.
And it is said that the ocean is more vast, the resources are more abundant, so the creatures in the ocean should be more huge than the land, the Cambrian Ordovician and the modern era, all prove that the creatures in the ocean are indeed much larger than the creatures on land, but the dinosaurs fell one, and the land is larger than the ocean, which seems to be really unscientific.
"Professor Yan, how big is the guessed aircraft carrier dragon?"
"Based on the average proportion of marine animals to land animals in the evolutionary history of the earth, we guess that the maximum length of the aircraft carrier dragon is more than 400 meters, and the weight should be more than 1,500 tons."
Uh, Qiubai can only be staggered, it's so big, I really dare to think about it.
"It's a pity that this aircraft carrier dragon is just speculation, but its existence has never been confirmed." Yan Fei sighed.
"Then how do you think I have the bones of such an aircraft carrier dragon?"
"Originally, we couldn't find the skeleton of the aircraft carrier dragon, and we were ready to give up, but Nanchuan now has a huge animal, a bit similar to the Jurassic era, there must be a reason for this, think about it, we think that there should be a skeleton of an aircraft carrier dragon near Nanchuan, and this skeleton has genes that can cause the animal to change its body shape."
"But Nanchuan used to be land, not the ocean."
"Not necessarily, there were several great crustal migrations in the Jurassic era, because the era is too old, so we don't know what the current Shu Di was more than 60 million years ago, it may be the sea, it may be the sea, it may be the land."
"But Professor, I still have a question, even if the Aircraft Carrier Dragon really exists, but it is more than 60 million years old, and it has long been a fossil, can its genes still be so active? Can you change the size of an animal? ”
"I can only say that everything is possible, otherwise can you give me a reasonable explanation for Nanchuan's situation?"
Qiubai could only be silent. (To be continued.) )
