Chapter 411: Goodbye Strange Bird
If they are not at their peak recently, the number of people is not small, and the construction of the dojo must not be too small, at least it is necessary to ensure that each of the people in the Qimen who enter the mysterious island to practice has a separate room, and they will not disturb each other's practice.
Then there are safety considerations, and when the time comes, it is inevitable that various metals will be used, and transportation will definitely become the biggest problem.
There are quite a few sea eagles on the island, and air freight can be considered. But if you think about it carefully, you will find that it is very unrealistic, although the transportation capacity of the sea eagle is not weak, but it can also transport the weight of two people, and any large steel bar is more than this weight, and it is not possible to rely on the sea eagle at all.
"I guess we still have to pull the helicopter in." Qin Xuebing smiled bitterly, it is not possible to take the land route at all, not to mention that there are countless monsters along the way, and the mountain road alone can block all means of transportation.
"When the time comes, we will pay for it ourselves, as much as we want, and we will not take advantage of it at all." The people in Qimen have expressed their attitudes, anyway, the people in Qimen are not short of money, and there is no need to owe favors to relevant departments.
Moreover, this dojo was built by the people of Qimen at their own expense, and the right to use it only belongs to Qimen, and the relevant departments want to arrange people to come in, and they have to ventilate with Qimen. If you ask the relevant departments to pay, I am afraid that it will be the opposite, and in the end, the Taoist place may become the relevant department.
"We still need to take tourists around the island these days and come back here in two days." After discussing these, Qin Xuebing was not in a hurry to act.
Entering the Mysterious Island is different from entering the Rebel World, entering the Rebel World is just a change point in the journey, the Mysterious Island is the destination of this trip, and the cruise ship will stay here for a while, so that tourists have plenty of time to experience the magic of the Mysterious Island.
The night was already dark. The beach is extremely lively, the tourists are playing on the beach in groups, and Qin Xuebing's family also gathers together to share the family.
"It's a good place, but it's a pity that we can't go down to the red dust, otherwise it's good to live in seclusion here." Old man Ouyang sighed lightly, and he was half a horse. has been confused in the political arena for half his life, and although he has retired, he has never been able to get out of the circle of power.
"yes. We old guys are born busy. "Old man Ye doesn't think like this, the circle of power is a quagmire, don't think about pulling it out if you step into it.
"You two don't talk about these boring things. Drink! Gu waited for the two of them to take a look, these are all fine wines brought by Qin Xuebing, from the treasures of pirates.
"Drinking, the crab here tastes much better than the outside." Old man Ouyang laughed, picked up a sea crab tongs and tossed it.
"That's right, it's a rare trip, you have to have a good meal." Old Man Ye agreed, it was not easy for them to come out, and they really stole half a day's leisure.
Ouyang Xiaomei rode on the old turtle and held a big crab leg and gnawed beautifully. Don't forget to shout: "Brother, pour me a glass of wine." ”
"I've made your brother a waiter." Qin Xuebing glanced at the girl, but he still lifted the wine bottle and poured a cup of good daughter red for the girl.
It's a night of fun, and no one treats their stomach badly. Even if you hate Bai Xuefei here.
Bai Xuefei is indeed helpless, the mysterious island is the destination of this trip, and it is a dangerous place that must be faced. He didn't know if he would die here, and if he did, it would be the Last Supper, and he would have to eat and drink no matter what. Don't starve to death.
Bai Xuefei admits that he is a little worried, but he feels that he is very reasonable, after all, this island is full of too many uncertainties, maybe a bird suddenly flies down from the sky and takes him away.
After the night of revelry, everyone slept on the boat, and few people got up until ten o'clock the next morning, as if the day was for rest.
In fact, Qin Xuebing also arranged it like this, constantly rushing along the way, and experiencing the rebellious world, everyone was a little tired in their hearts, and I am afraid that they would not be able to completely relax and play. Therefore, after the carnival, let everyone rest enough, and then go out to play, everyone will be more relaxed.
It wasn't until noon that the tourists got up one after another, and after breakfast, they were leisurely on the boat, and they didn't have any intention of going out to play.
At this time, Qin Xuebing had already gotten up, took Xiaolong, and flew to the Grand Canyon on a Sky Eagle to see an old friend, a strange bird.
Qin Xuebing had already seen the figure of the strange bird in the air, but the situation was a little out of order, and the strange bird was in a stalemate with another equally strange bird.
It was a very peculiar-looking bird, with a head similar to that of a dinosaur, grayish-brown feathers, a small size than a strange bird, and a very long tail, similar to that of a squirrel.
Qin Xuebing was a little surprised, he had already understood the strength of the strange bird, although he couldn't beat the little dragon, but it was also a monster second only to the little dragon, and he commanded all the birds in this area. But now a bird that is not very conspicuous can actually stalemate with it.
Qin Xuebing landed from the air, and the strange bird had already seen him, but he only glanced at him, and continued to stalemate with the bird in front of him. The other bird ignored Qin Xuebing's presence.
Qin Xuebing looked at this strange bird, thinking about it in his mind, and always felt that this bird was a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.
"Ornithosaurus, that's right, it's this creature!" Qin Xuebing suddenly realized, and finally remembered that when he was a freshman, the school had organized them to go to the Natural History Museum, and they had seen the restoration of this animal.
In 1999, Dr. Ji Qiang, a paleontologist from the mainland, and others discovered a beautifully preserved small dinosaur with feathers all over the body - ornithosaurus fossils in the Dawangzhu area. Ji Qiang and others believe that ornithosaurus was a small theropod dinosaur about 130 million years ago, and its feathers were originally only used to maintain body temperature. Of all the advanced theropod dinosaurs, the galloping carnivorous Benosaurus is probably one of the most closely related groups to birds.
Traces of feathers have been found in the rocks surrounding the ornithosaurus specimens. These feather traces are made up of filaments and have two characteristics that indicate that they are early feathers. First, several filaments coalesce into a clump, which resembles the structure of a feather. Second, a row of feathers coalesce into a feather shaft, which resembles the feathered structure of a normal bird. However, the feathers of ornithischian dragons did not have the secondary branches and small branches of modern bird feathers, which formed the scattered feathers of modern birds.
The discovery of ornithischian supports the theory of "taking off from the ground" of bird flight. The "gliding from the trees" theory, on the other hand, assumes that birds evolved from arboreal dinosaurs that glided from branch to branch. The "ground-to-ground" theory, on the other hand, hypothesizes that birds evolved from running dinosaurs whose feathers were insulating or exhibits of courtship. However, the discovery of the four-winged dinosaur Microraptor shows that the original theory of bird evolution was oversimplified, and different near-bird dinosaurs developed the evolutionary mode of "taking off from the ground" and "gliding from trees" at the same time, and each had a corresponding way of life.
In addition to their feathers, ornithosaurs could flap their arms, and they were one of the first dinosaurs to be spotted with bird-like shoulder straps. Ornithosaurs also had bird-like pelvis and hind limbs, as well as very long arms.
At this time, the bird dragon suddenly opened its mouth and let out a roar, and Qin Xuebing clearly saw that it had long tusks in its mouth. This made him even more convinced of his own reasoning.
In 2009, a group of scientists examined the skull of an ornithosaurus and found that their teeth were capable of secreting venom, making it the first dinosaur to be identified as capable of secreting venom. The researchers found that ornithosaurs had tusks in the middle of the upper jaw with a distinct furrow on the posterior side, and many modern venomous animals had similar tusks. In addition to this, they also found band-like spaces within the maxilla on the upper side of the teeth, which the researchers speculated might house soft tissue that resembled venom glands.
The researchers theorized that ornithosaurs evolved venomous glands and tusks, and fed on small animals such as birds, injecting venom into the bodies of their prey, similar to modern snakes. They also theorized that the front of the ornithosaurus' beak had slightly forward-tilting, short, pointed teeth that were used to strip birds of their feathers.
"I'm afraid it's not an orthodox bird dragon!" Qin Xuebing quickly overturned his conjecture, when he saw the fossil of the ornithrosaurus, it was far less huge than the one in front of him.
Moreover, if it is an orthodox ancient bird dragon, it will definitely not have the strength to stalemate with the strange bird. Strange birds are almost comparable to the existence of small dragons, if they are placed in ancient times, even in the face of Tyrannosaurus rex, they have the power to fight, not to mention the bird dragon.
He wasn't surprised, though, that this was an island full of vitality, a place where any creature could mutate. It's like a strange bird, it couldn't have been some kind of powerful bird, but now its strength is almost against the sky.
There is also an ant colony, which is also evolved from ordinary ants, whose size is hundreds of thousands of times that of ordinary ants, and its strength is also countless times that of ordinary ants.
So it's not surprising that ornithosaurs mutate and gain powerful abilities.
"Do you want me to help?" Qin Xuebing could feel that this bird dragon was very strong, and the life breath in its body was very strong, almost no less than a strange bird, if there was a conflict, it would inevitably be a dragon and tiger fight, and both sides would lose.
In addition to seeing strange birds, he came here for another purpose, that is, to ask the strange birds for help. The original treasure hunt route was a must-go for this trip, but there were many dangers on the way, especially the ant monsters, and even if many Qimen people joined together, there was no guarantee that there would be no casualties.
Therefore, Qin Xuebing wanted to ask the strange birds for help, with the strange birds guarding it, he could attract countless birds to help at any time, even if the ant colony appeared again, it would not be able to stir up any waves.
The strange bird let out a strange cry and clearly rejected Qin Xuebing's proposal. This is the rule of the island, it is a battle between it and the bird dragon, and no outsiders are allowed to participate.
In this battle, if it can win, it will still be in charge of the area in the future, including this ornithrosaur. This kind of rule is like inside the wolf pack, the new king will challenge the old king, and the winner is king. (To be continued.)
