Chapter 360: The Elephant Herd
In China, of course, there have been fossils of saber-toothed elephants, and there are texts about saber-toothed elephants in the primary school textbooks of Han Peacock's elementary school.
At that time, the teacher asked the teacher to recite the whole text, and Han Peacock was very familiar with it, so the moment he saw it, Han Peacock knew what he had appeared.
In China, this saber-toothed elephant is known as the Yellow River elephant, and the fossilized skeleton of the Yellow River elephant is the most complete saber-toothed skeleton in the world.
However, Han Peacock looked at the elephant bone fossils in the field, and the thief laughed, if he got this thing out, would the domestic bone fossils still stand out?
Because the sabertooth fossil here is so well preserved, even a tiny pubic bone has been preserved.
Looking at the dry cave, Han Peacock didn't know why there were fossils here, but now he couldn't think about it so much, and he didn't have to think too much.
It's just that from the analysis of the topography here, it is not difficult to form fossils at all, and now, there are still many waterholes in this cave!
Perhaps the dry place now was also a swamp in ancient times! In swampy and watery places, it is not too difficult to form fossils.
Thinking of this, Han Peacock's body stagnated, if this place was really a swamp in ancient times, then what would happen here?
Looking at the waterholes in the cave, are there also fossils of saber-toothed elephants?
In fact, if this elephant tomb is really long-lasting, then there must be only so many elephant bones here.
What would happen if the elephant bones he found today were buried or covered with water due to geological changes?
Come to think of it. Han Peacock's heart was full of fanaticism, and after putting away the well-preserved saber-toothed fossil, Han Peacock used the Xuanyuan Water Control Flag to carefully perceive the surrounding underground situation.
He wanted to look for it, in the waterhole. Is there still a fossil of a saber-toothed elephant?
As soon as the water control magic power moved, he was immediately shocked by the image coming from the ground, he saw perfect elephants, many of these elephants were standing, they just kept standing posture, forming fossils. And around them, there are many elephant bones-shaped things.
In fact, there are more things that perceive elephant bones, but after all, Han Peacock can't really see the situation underground, he just wraps some things underground with water, and forms an image of that thing in his mind. Therefore, the more shocking elephant skeleton fossil was naturally the first to be noticed by him.
Could it be that there are more elephant bones buried in the ground?
Han Peacock's mind moved away from those giant elephant bone fossils, and wanted to immediately find a pair of tusks from the more suspicious elephant bones.
The image of the ivory is relatively easy to identify, as long as the tusks grow to the fossilized head skeleton of the elephant. It can also be found, so that Han Peacock's conjecture can be confirmed.
Just when Han Peacock wanted to take a closer look, he felt a slight tremor on the ground, and then, this feeling became clearer.
"Earthquake?" Han Peacock was a little surprised, if it was an earthquake, it would be miserable, not to mention the elephant bones below, but the complete elephant skeleton fossils he saw. It's priceless, and he's thinking about how to get them out!
As the shaking became more and more obvious, Han Peacock could no longer care about the saber-toothed fossil here, and he immediately ran out of the cave.
Han Peacock looked at his watch, he had already entered the cave for an hour. Although the time is not long, except for the saber-toothed elephant fossils buried in the waterhole, the other elephant bones have been put away.
However, thinking of the three-meter-long giant ivory fossils, Han Peacock's heart was still hot.
However, as the ground shook more and more violently, Han Peacock knew that now was not the time to be greedy, if he was buried in the cave, even if he had more wealth, it would be over.
Han Peacock glanced at the jungle below the canyon, there was not much movement over there, but Liu Wu and the others who were sleeping in the tent should have also seen the shaking of the ground, so he saw a lot of lights shaking.
In the jungle, even if there is an earthquake, there is nothing to be afraid of, as long as there is no landslide, there is generally no danger.
Han Peacock knew that Liu Fu and they would come to look for him soon, so his time was running out, and he felt that the shaking of the ground was getting stronger and stronger, but Han Peacock still started to block the hole of the elephant tomb with a crowbar, and then he was ready to go back.
As soon as he closed the entrance to the elephant tomb, he saw a scene that shocked him even more.
"The elephants, the elephants are coming? How did they get here? Han Peacock was stunned, and immediately reacted, this group of elephants was really not far from here, thinking of the long chirping sound of the old elephant before he died, Han Peacock immediately figured out everything.
Seventy or eighty adult wild elephants appeared in the perception of Han Peacocks, and these wild elephants rushed with momentum, which can be said to be carried out all the way, even uprooting trees when encountered, and not avoiding waterholes and rivers when encountered, and directly flowing through the water.
When they saw the Han peacocks, they knew that the sacred cemetery had been violated, and they suddenly became even more violent, and the wild elephants howled angrily and kept hitting the trunks with their bulky bodies.
Han Peacock was immediately shocked when he saw the momentum of the elephant herd, seeing that the elephant was about to rush over, Han Peacock's reaction was quite fast, so he immediately controlled the surrounding water sources, pumped out the water, and formed a water column, like a stream of water sprayed by a high-pressure water gun, shooting towards the elephant herd.
Blocked by the water column and unable to see the surrounding terrain clearly, four or five wild elephants who were running quickly fell to the ground one after another, and the remaining wild elephants were immediately enraged.
Han Peacock hid behind a big tree at the moment when the elephant herd was blocked, but this was just a slight delay.
After the elephants saw Han Peacock's location, they concentrated their strength and began to hit the big tree in front of Han Peacock, and in just a few clicks, the big tree fell with a bang.
However, at this moment, Han Peacock jumped into the small river, and the enraged elephant herd rushed into the small river regardless of it.
Han Peacock was already fully enlightened at this time, so after entering the small river, he immediately escaped the attack of several crocodiles and escaped into the depths of the river.
But those wild elephants didn't care about it, and chased and killed Han Peacock all the way, which suddenly made the overlord in the river unwilling.
It turned out that a crocodile attacked Han Peacock, but Han Peacock encountered such a situation many times in the jungle, so he calmly manipulated the water in the small river and dragged the crocodile into the elephant herd.
The crocodile didn't care that the target changed, the moment it saw the wild elephant, the sharp teeth had already hit the wild elephant's thigh, and in an instant, the angry wild elephant was attracted by the pain in the leg and shifted the target.
As the Han peacock went deeper into the river, and the movement on this side continued to increase, more and more crocodiles were attracted to this side.
Although these crocodiles appeared Han Peacock first, they are not as powerful as Han Peacock in the water.
So these crocodiles, all of them were used by Han peacocks to push down the herd of wild elephants.
The elephant herd has lost the trace of the Han peacock, so the angry mood is slowly calming down, after a belated old elephant screamed, the wild elephant in the water began to retreat to the shore, but a wild elephant was stuck in the swamp at the bottom of the river and could not extricate itself, at this time several fierce crocodiles immediately swam over.
At this time, more than a dozen wild elephants pounced at the same time to rescue their companions, and Han Peacock took advantage of the distraction of the elephant herd and escaped from the depths of the river.
Not long after Han Peacock left, the group of elephants that had already calmed down screamed violently again, and Han Peacock could clearly feel the anger in the long roar.
Come to think of it, the elephants must have been present at this time, and their graveyards had been touched.
Han Peacock can't care about the saber-toothed skeleton fossils in the elephant tomb now, those things are all in pits, no matter how smart those elephants are, they can't dig them out and take them away.
This elephant tomb was discovered by him, and the group of wild elephants would definitely not be used again, as long as they left, after that, Han Peacock would have time to come here to hunt for treasures.
Therefore, Han Peacock returned to the camp with peace of mind, and at this time the camp had become dark again, thinking that Shankokuma was guarding against the angry elephant herd.
"I'm worried about what you're doing." Seeing Han Peacock coming over, Liu Wu immediately complained.
Han Peacock smiled: "I heard the movement and went up to take a look." ”
"Don't know the danger? Others are hearing how far away the movement is, how far away are you doing, but you come forward to watch the excitement, do you still think this is in the antique street of the magic capital? Liu Wu said dissatisfied.
Han Peacock smiled: "Isn't this curious? I promise not in the future. ”
At this time, Yamakokuma walked up, and he said in broken Chinese: "Boss, what's going on over there?" ”
Seeing that everyone was looking at him curiously, Han Peacock said: "It should be a wild elephant that fell into a small river while drinking water, and after being besieged by a group of crocodiles, that group of wild elephants was saving their companions." ”
Shankokuma said: "Look at the angry appearance of this group of wild elephants, the situation of the wild elephant caught in the river should not be good, it is dawn, we will leave here immediately, otherwise, it is likely that the group of elephants will be angry and used to vent their anger." ”
Nilmara also said a few words, but she said it in the local dialect, so Han Peacock couldn't understand it.
At this time, Qin Long said: "Niermara said, fortunately, this place is far away from the village, otherwise, these elephants are likely to attack the village. ”
Seeing Han Peacock, they were all a little puzzled, Qin Long continued: "Many people living on the outskirts of the jungle are afraid of wild elephants, because wild elephants are now protected animals, even if there are shotguns at home, no one dares to kill elephants.
So in recent years, the elephant herd has become larger and larger, and their range of movement has increased, which will naturally destroy the crops of the surrounding villages, so it is not a good thing to just blindly protect the animals. ”
