Thirty-five. Great one-horned rhinoceros
"Good weather today, old wolf, please eat chicken ......"
A five-tone incomplete howl came out of Ai Xiaohai's mouth, and the singing was really miserable. Xiao Ma, who had been hovering above Ai Xiaohai's head, couldn't stand the noise anymore, and hurriedly flew towards the direction of the primeval forest.
Xiao Qi frowned, it was somewhat accustomed to it, what could it do when it met an owner who was incomplete in five tones and liked to howl twice when he was fine?
Ai Xiaohai really lacks talent in singing.
But the mood is not bad, caught the robbers, and successfully washed himself. Especially...... Hehe, now Yin Yunuo is looking for himself everywhere with the five thousand yuan, right? But where can she find herself?
The female police officer is still good, and she is afraid that she will not even have enough money in her pocket to eat, but she still eats by herself.
It's a pity that I can't stay here for a long time, how to accelerate the growth of the Dragon Spirit Bead as soon as possible is the right thing.
This time I stepped into the primeval forest, just to get my travel backpack, and I didn't have to go deeper and fight any beasts. But Ai Xiaohai knew that in the depths of the big forest, there must be many rare creatures that had not been discovered by humans for the time being.
It's a magical forest, and creatures like the thysupial lion, which have long been thought to be extinct, have appeared, and who knows if there are any species similar to it?
There is also the herb garden of the marsupial lion, there are too many good things in it, but it is inconvenient when you want to take it, so you have to come all the way to Huyan Naxi, if only you could move to Xinan City. It's a pity that I don't have the ability to do it for the time being.
Suddenly, Ai Xiaohai had an idea: Farm!
Well, why can't you get a farm? Not only can you grow those rare herbs in it, but more importantly, you can also raise animals there. Just kidding, who is Ai Xiaohai? If he can drive animals, if he wants to breed, he has a stronger advantage than others!
For example, now there is a very market for pheasants and hares in the market, and Ai Xiaohai can breed these in large quantities on the farm, as for the guards? If Ai Xiaohai is happy, he can simply let the wolf clan act as his guard!
A few wolves look at a herd of pheasants and hares, who dares to steal? Where can pheasants and hares run? Of course, it is inevitable that the wolf clan will guard and steal themselves...... Think about it or forget it, how many wolves are going to appear near the city, so it's not a mess?
However, the idea of getting a farm has taken root in Ai Xiaohai's mind......
After thinking about it, they walked into the primeval forest, and several snakes who were responsible for helping Ai Xiaohai take care of the backpack swam over and saw the "snake king" in their minds.
The backpack is intact, guarded by a venomous snake, who would dare to approach?
Ai Xiaohai let all the poisonous snakes and sparrows disperse, found a remote place by himself, opened his backpack, took out the few pieces of high-grade jade brought out of the prince's treasure, sat down, and pasted the jade on his dantian.
The aura on the jade is not comparable to ordinary jade, and in Ai Xiaohai's opinion, the jade aura that has been accumulated for hundreds of years will definitely be able to help him release the essence of the snake queen.
The jade was pasted to the dantian, and within a few seconds, the spirit on the jade was immediately absorbed by the dragon spirit bead, and there was no trace left. However, to Ai Xiaohai's surprise, so much aura entered, which did not help the release of the snake queen essence in the slightest, but was stored by the dragon spirit bead.
What's going on?
Ai Xiaohai didn't believe in evil, so he took two pieces of jade and pasted them in the dantian one after another, but the ending was exactly the same. The dragon spirit bead greedily absorbed the aura, but refused to release the slightest. At this time, the Dragon Spirit Bead, like a large safe full of infinite treasures, is placed in front of you, but you don't have the key to open the safe!
At this moment, the Dragon Spirit Bead gathers the Snake Queen Essence and a few pieces of Centennial Treasure Jade Aura, once it is released, the power is so strong, I am afraid that the Du Pulse will be rushed away in an instant, and it will immediately reach the second layer of the Dragon Spirit Bead.
Ai Xiaohai was a little anxious, he originally thought that he could do this with Baoyu's strength, but now it seems that it is not the case at all.
Ai Xiaohai didn't dare to try anymore, and stood up, confused.
What is the key to unlocking the power of the Dragon Spirit Orb?
"King, King!"
While Ai Xiaohai was thinking hard, a sparrow flew over: "Oh no, a huge rhinoceros suddenly appeared outside the Quolline Cave, and it was about to rush into the Quolline Cave!" ”
Ai Xiaohai was thinking about the key, and replied casually: "What is there to worry about a rhinoceros?" Just let the marsupial lion chase it away. ”
"Back to the king, that rhinoceros seems to be crazy, the thylacial lion has no way to defeat it, and it has injured two wolf strikers!"
Ai Xiaohai was shocked, there is no way to defeat the marsupial lion? What rhinoceros?
In Ai Xiaohai's impression, the rhinoceros is huge and ugly, but it is timid and does not hurt people. A rampaging rhinoceros? There is only one possibility, that is, it is injured or in trouble, and the rhinoceros will become so fierce that even the lions and tigers dare not confront it head-on.
However, that is for the average lion tiger. What is a Thylacial? An ancient beast that can easily defeat three lions, and it also has a group of wolves as helpers, what kind of animal can't even deal with it?
After thinking about it, the Thylaced Lion's essence was absorbed by himself, and the Thysupial Lion's vitality was greatly damaged, and before the Essence recovered, his strength was not half of what it used to be, perhaps this was the reason why the Thylacial Lion couldn't take a rhinoceros.
How can this be reasonable, he became the king, and finally there was a group of generals, and there were actually people...... Do any animals dare to smash the field? And once the rhinoceros washed into the Quolline Cave, wouldn't the herb garden be completely destroyed?
As soon as the thought arose, Ai Xiaohai did not hesitate anymore, and ran away......
......
Ai Xiaohai's judgment is not wrong, after the Thyrocyponic Essence was absorbed, his strength was greatly reduced, although he has made up for it after recuperation in the past few days, it is not the same as before.
At this time, a huge rhinoceros actually broke into its territory and tried to go straight to the cave of the thylacial lion. Several wolf strikers tried to block it, but one was injured by the rhinoceros and one was trampled on in a confrontation, which was not a rhinoceros opponent at all.
When the thylacial heard the news, he saw that his subordinates were injured, and in a fit of rage, he wanted to eat the rhinoceros, but when he fought it, he found that it was not the case at all.
The strength of the rhinoceros is unexpected, not only that, but the rhinoceros seems to be completely crazy, in the face of the marsupial lion attack, it does not dodge or dodge, it crashes into it and stabs the other party with the horns on its head.
This is the most powerful weapon of the rhinoceros, and once it is stabbed, even the thysupial lion cannot withstand it. After a long time, although the rhinoceros also suffered some hardships with the help of the wolf clan, the wolf clan injured a few more in succession, and still couldn't take the rhinoceros.
In the sky, it was the Sparrow Legion hovering there. But that's just about helping the fight. Tiny sparrows can't do even the slightest bit of damage to the rhinoceros.
At this moment, a figure rushed in, and the sparrow army cheered: "The king is here, the king is here!" ”
The thylacial lion in the fierce battle was both happy and ashamed. As soon as the king comes, no matter how strong the animal is, it is no match for the king. It is a shame that as a general appointed by the king himself, he can't even deal with a rhinoceros.
Ai Xiaohai, who rushed to the battlefield, was not in a hurry to fight immediately, but carefully looked at this rhinoceros!
Good guys, this rhinoceros is nearly three meters long, one and a half meters tall, and must weigh more than a ton. Its skin is hard and black, dark gray with purple tinge, with small rivet-like nodules attached to it; There are wide folds on the shoulder blades, under the neck, and at the joints of the limbs, making the body look like it is wearing a piece of armor. The thylacial lion attacked its body several times, but relying on this layer of "armor" to protect the rhinoceros did not care at all.
The weapon at the tip of its nose, the horn is thick and short, and it is so hard that any animal stabbed by it will be seriously injured if it does not die.
Big one-horned rhinoceros! Seeing this horn, Ai Xiaohai immediately thought of the name.
Hell, it is a large one-horned rhinoceros, also known as the "Chinese rhinoceros", this kind of rhinoceros, usually docile, but when injured or feeling the danger, it will be furious and ferocious. It is said that in ancient times, an emperor wanted the horn of a large one-horned rhinoceros, sent a large number of soldiers to arrest it, and finally succeeded in surrounding one. However, under the repeated attacks of knives, guns, bows and arrows, the big one-horned rhinoceros actually killed and injured hundreds of soldiers before it was killed.
But...... But...... During the Tang Dynasty, the big one-horned rhinoceros was distributed in Lianghu, Liangguang, Yunnan-Guizhou and even QH. In the Ming Dynasty, it was only distributed in Yunnan and Guizhou, and in the Qing Dynasty, it was only in the YN area.
By the beginning of the 20th century, the great one-horned rhinoceros was completely extinct!
The reason for this is that rhinos are too demanding on the environment, especially the great one-horned rhinoceros. The gradual cooling of the climate is a very important factor. The rhinoceros is an animal that prefers warm climates. Around 500 B.C., the climate north of the Yellow River began to cool significantly, and the rhinoceros population in the region continued to migrate south. By the time of the Tang Dynasty, the area north of the Yellow River was completely unsuitable for rhinoceros.
In the first year of Tang Zhen, a big one-horned rhinoceros was hunted with great hardship and sent to the palace, but in the winter of that year, because of a snowfall, the rhinoceros froze to death in the Chang'an Palace Zoo.
Population pressure is also a very important factor, after the number of human beings exceeds a certain range, it will inevitably burn mountains and forests, reclaim hills and lakes, permanently destroy their living environment, and occupy a large area of their habitat.
Due to the combined effects of climate and population pressure, the habitat of the giant one-horned rhinoceros was permanently destroyed, and then there was a regional extinction. Because the maximum population pressure that the great one-horned rhinoceros can withstand is that it can only have four humans per square kilometer.
Anyway, the great one-horned rhinoceros is finally extinct.
But in this magical big forest, a living big one-horned rhinoceros is actually in front of Ai Xiaohai's eyes!
