Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
When the five photos of the "dragon-shaped creature" circulated on the Internet, and 6 reporters found the person concerned and confirmed the authenticity of the incident, the news about this incident almost turned the sky upside down, and these photos also appeared on various televisions, newspapers, radio and the Internet, including many foreign media, as long as they are not isolated from the world, almost everyone knows that there is a place called Taoyuan Village where a real dragon appears!
The dragon is the symbol and totem of the Chinese nation, and the descendants of Yan and Huang have always called themselves "the descendants of the dragon".
In the past, dragons were just fictional mythical beasts, and occasionally there were rumors that someone in a certain place had seen a "dragon", but under careful investigation, there was no real evidence, and it could only be regarded as an anecdote to make everyone laugh.
When the legendary totem beast really appeared in front of the world's eyes, everyone was a little overwhelmed.
Of course, more people who believe in science think that this may be an aquatic creature that has never been seen before.
After some aquatic biology experts learned the news, they also rushed to Taoyuan Village, seeing that there were many tourists in the cave, many people were trying to attract some moves to attract "dragon-shaped creatures" to appear, some experts were anxious, and put forward opinions to visit the dragon cave to be temporarily closed, no longer open to tourists, so as not to destroy the living environment of this creature from being destroyed.
Finally, dozens of people, including aquatic biology experts, underwater photographers, and media reporters, including the Institute of Hydrobiology of the Academy of Sciences and several famous universities, were invited to Taoyuan Village to explore the truth of "dragon-shaped creatures".
Longtan is not big, but it is not small, and it has an area of thirty or forty acres. At its deepest point, it is 20 meters deep. It is connected to an underground river channel. There are even underground rivers that communicate with the rivers outside, and there are many underwater caves and stone crevices.
The "dragon-shaped creature" in the photo is only thirty or forty centimeters long, and when it is drilled into the crack of the stone, it cannot be found by anyone who is too big, because of its small size, some advanced underwater search equipment cannot be used.
Dozens of aquatic life experts and underwater professionals have tried many means to find the mysterious creatures in the underground rivers and lakes, if not for the fact that five tourists took a photo each. Three others witnessed it firsthand, and one might think it was just a prank or a publicity stunt to attract tourists.
As more and more people enter Taoyuan Village, they want to enter the Dragon Cave to see the true face, although because of the accommodation and play of these people, the villagers' income has increased greatly, but it also disturbs the peace of the village. Ye Quan even regretted making such a thing, some places made "lake monsters", mostly for tourism promotion, Taoyuan Village is no longer necessary.
Just the last wild South China tiger. It makes Taoyuan Village world-famous, and there is no need for any publicity at all.
Since tourists have appeared in Longtan, "dragon-shaped creatures". Every day, tourists can't find a place to stay in Taoyuan Village, even if the villagers vacate their own empty rooms, it is not enough, so some tourists who can't book empty rooms bring their own tents and want to spend the night in Taoyuan Village, and the village is not easy to persuade.
In the end, Taoyuan Village simply planned a place and built a tent camping area on the sandbar to barely solve the problem.
Not to mention, this camping area is very popular with tourists as soon as it opens, you can rent all kinds of tents and daily necessities, the environmental pollution in the area of Nanyue Ridge is very rare, when the weather is clear, you can see the sky full of stars at night, which is very rare in other areas in the era of strict air pollution.
Although the sandbar is hot during the day, it is very cool at night, on the flat grass, blowing the cool river breeze, looking at the stars in the sky, this tent is more comfortable than the hotel, and it is more rare to feel this novelty, which is the most desirable for people who have lived in the reinforced concrete city for a long time.
Ye Quan discussed with Ye Mingsheng and others, and decided to build dozens of shops around the village square for rent, mostly souvenir shops, handicraft shops and small restaurants from all over the country, and there were many requirements, such as exquisite production, exquisite craftsmanship, special significance, etc., and other requests to enter the village were all rejected.
There is also a place that Ye Quan did not expect, that is, there are many people who really believe that there is a dragon in this world, and they came from thousands of miles away, just to see the true face, after entering the cave without a door, someone was outside the entrance of the dragon cave, began to burn incense and bow down, and did not know whether to seek blessing or wealth.
Even the villagers of Taoyuan Village and the nearby villagers are fascinated by it, this is a dragon, unlike the wild South China tiger some time ago, one is just a real beast, and the other is a mythical beast in myths and legends, a symbol of worship and respect for the Chinese nation for thousands of years.
When people in Taoyuan Village were young, they heard from their elders the legend that a dragon was suppressed in Zhenlong Mountain and Youlong Cave, but who would take it seriously when they grew up? Now that someone has really seen it, everyone is beginning to be skeptical.
So some old people in the village proposed to build a dragon temple at the foot of Zhenlong Mountain, praying for the dragon god to bless the peace of the water and soil.
Of course, there are also people who oppose it, the legendary dragon was suppressed, maybe it is an evil dragon, a sin dragon or something.
However, this opposition was quickly drowned out.
Ye Quan didn't object to this, he just built it if he wanted to, and if it was built beautifully, it would be one more tourist attraction in the village.
There has been no progress in the search for mysterious creatures in the Dragon Cave, but there are a lot of aquatic creatures such as transparent fish and blind shrimp in the underground lake.
At the beginning, when Ye Quan released six modified "dragon" shaped cave newts, in order to prevent them from being captured or extinct for other reasons, they deliberately optimized their survivability, they can swim fast in the water, have a strong ability to hunt, and can not eat for up to a year or two.
Some experts thought that this was a mutated newt creature, but more like a dragon than the European newt, so they named it "Chinese young dragon newt".
Of course, there are some experts who disagree, believing that this dragon-like creature is different from the cave newt in terms of appearance and living habits, and should be a new and unique species, and should simply be named "Chinese young dragon".
Because the real ** has not been captured, there are too many unknown places, and the two sides argue endlessly, but in any case, they both believe that this is a unique species of Xinhua Kingdom, and call on the relevant units to list it as the highest level of protected animals.
It wasn't until the twenty-first day of the expedition team that an underwater camera finally captured the figure of the dragon-shaped creature in a corner, but it only flashed by the camera.
Subsequently, the trapping and netting methods failed, and he did not dare to take some brutal measures, for fear of accidentally destroying the ecological environment of the lake and leading to the extinction of this rare creature.
Cave newts were previously only found in freshwater caves in the Alps in southeastern Europe, and in the past few years, there were rumors on the Internet that there were cave newt creatures in the ancient caves of Kunlun Mountain, but the language was unknown.
In any case, in the eyes of the public, the appearance of the "Chinese young dragon cave newt" in the Dragon Cave is simply a miracle, and many people have changed their previous views and believe that the legend of the dragon in their own people may be true.
As for this creature, whether it is the original form of the legendary dragon, this is inconclusive, and the more accepted statement is that the ancestors of Taoyuan Village should have seen this creature, which left the legend of "dragon" in Zhenlong Mountain, Youlong Cave and other places.
During the month that the expedition team entered the Dragon Cave to explore, the Dragon Cave was closed, which provoked many complaints and protests from tourists, and after the failure of various possible capture methods, the expedition team finally decided to end the search work.
And after the struggle of Taoyuan Village, it was decided to continue to open the Dragon Cave, but the rules have become much stricter, such as the number of tourists entering the cave every day, the time is controlled, and the stay time of each cruise ship in Longtan is not more than 1o minutes, and tourists are not allowed to make noise, and they are not allowed to put any items including food into the lake.
Since then, the "Chinese young dragon cave newt" in the dragon drift has become a "Loch Ness Lake Monster" like a storage zĂ i, although the tourists who enter the cave in the future will hold a mobile phone or camera in their hands, but I have not heard of anyone who can be lucky enough to take a picture.
