It is said that Chen Lan and the two senior brothers were shocked when they saw a monster coming out of the water, thinking that another monster had escaped. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info but they soon found out that the monster had died before, and now the reason why it was strangely pushed by the waves on the shore was a good thing that Zhu Yan did.

Zhu Yan had already returned to the edge of the cliff, and this monster was indeed brought up by him. Ever since he discovered that this monster was very similar to the one he had encountered, and that it was similar to the legendary dragon, he had the idea to study it carefully.

Speaking of which, no one looked closely at what the monster they encountered in the crater for the first time looked like. At that time, Zhu Yan's arm was blown off, and everyone was scrambling around him, not caring about the corpse of the monster that fell into the jungle. Later, everyone sensed the rich vitality of the crater, and they were anxious to run over to find out, but they forgot about the monster corpse.

Now that the monster's corpse has been pushed to the edge of the cliff by the lake, everyone has discovered that it is indeed very similar to the previous monster. Only this time the monster seems to have developed more maturely, with a slender neck more like a snake, thicker and wider scales on its back, and longer and thicker horns and whiskers on its head.

"Could it be that this monster is the legendary Tianchi Water Monster?" Chen Lan couldn't help but exclaim.

"When I was buying ginseng in Jicheng, I heard that other people's depictions of water monsters were indeed like this." Second Senior Brother Zhao Quzhi said.

When the third senior brother Fang Dawei heard this, he suddenly remembered something, and said: "I heard that in recent years, not only have there been water monsters in Tianchi, but also water monsters have often been made in other places, such as the Loch Ness Monster, the QH Lake Monster and so on. These monsters all seem to look similar to this monster, with snake-like bodies, horse-like mouths, and some of them have horns and long beards on their heads. Are they really big lizards that came out of the ground, or are they legendary dragons? ”

"It does look a lot like the legendary dragon. The dragons recorded in myths and legends are snake bodies, lizard legs, eagle claws, snake tails, antlers, fish scales, whiskers at the corners of the mouth, and beads under the forehead. This monster has no beads under its forehead, and all the other characteristics are in line, so it should be the image of a dragon in ancient times. It's just that how did this ancient dragon survive until now? And what about here? ”

Zhu Yan had read some descriptions of dragons, and he was also puzzled as to why this dragon appeared here.

"Could it have been since antiquity...... What about staying here? Chen Lan said, and as soon as she spoke, she felt that something was inappropriate.

"How can this be? Even if it survives antiquity, it shouldn't be here. You must know that this volcanic lake has only been formed for thousands of years, and it has experienced several volcanic eruptions in the middle, how can it survive? The second senior brother Zhao Quzhi immediately retorted.

The third senior brother Fang Dawei also said: "It has survived from ancient times to the present, it is indeed a bit unbelievable, and there is no way to guarantee food!" Let's just say that now, there are no other creatures in the pond this day, and there is no trace of gnawing on the surrounding grass and trees, what does it eat? ”

Chen Lan's face turned red, and she said again: "I know that guessing is a bit inappropriate, but there are so many dragon-shaped water monsters appearing, and they are all distributed in different places. If it weren't for the remnants of ancient creatures, how could so many new species burst out at once? I just vaguely feel that this dragon-shaped monster has some connection with those dragons in ancient times. ”

"Antiquity?" Zhu Yan suddenly thought of something, and said, "I remember that there is a legend of the Mayans that when this civilization is coming to an end, their gods will reappear. And the god of the Mayans is none other than the god Quetzalcoatl, which is said to be a snake god with wings, very similar to the legendary Ying Long. Could it be that the emergence of these new species has something to do with this legend? ”

"Quetzalcoatl? Ying Long? But this monster doesn't have wings, how can it be the legendary Ying Long? Chen Lan asked puzzled.

According to the supplement to "Lisao", this dragon is divided into four types: the scaly one is called Jiaolong, the horned one is called the dragon, the hornless one is called the dragon, and the winged one is called Yinglong. Moreover, this dragon can evolve, the young dragon has no wings, no horns, and even a few scales, only when it absorbs enough vitality and improves its cultivation can it gradually grow horns and wings. 《… It is recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas that the ancient emperors patrolled the Quartet and often rode the dragon, which was the Ying Dragon with wings. So at the moment, this evil monster is actually only one step away from Ying Long, if you let it go to the next level, it will become Ying Long! Zhu Yan patiently explained to her that these were all things he had seen from the book.

"So, where did these dragon-like monsters come from? If they were really dragons in ancient times, what if they had been hiding there for tens of millions of years to survive and reproduce? The second senior brother Zhao Qu asked again.

"I really can't say for sure. Generally speaking, the seeds or embryos of ancient organisms, buried under the ice or underground for tens of millions of years, have little chance of germinating or hatching, and they must survive and reproduce unless they are first transferred to a safe environment. I read in a scientific journal that scientists argued that about a third of all species moved to the Antarctic continent before the last mass extinction, when the climate on the continent was relatively warm. But the Antarctic continent is so far away from here, how could it come out of this lake? Zhu Yan said.

"Could it be ......" Chen Lan suddenly thought of something, but she didn't say it, maybe she was afraid that others would laugh at her.

"What is it? Did you think of something, say it! Zhu Yan knew that she must have remembered some undecided statement, so she encouraged her to say it.

Regarding this underground world, Zhu Yan has also read some information, and he used to be suspicious, but now that he thinks about it, it is indeed very possible.

With Zhu Yan's support, Chen Lan's confidence increased a lot, and she continued: "According to that hypothesis, when the ancient catastrophe occurred, some creatures hid in the underground corridor, while the other part of the creatures that moved to the South Pole may have directly entered the underground world and survived there until today. Then, when the environment on the earth's surface changes again, they try to come out of the ground, volcanoes, ancient underground caverns, maybe they are the passages to enter and exit. ”

"How is this possible? It may still be possible to come out of an underground cave, but how is it possible to come out of a volcano? "The third senior brother and the second senior brother couldn't believe it.

Zhu Yan looked at the monster hiding under the cliff, his third eye opened, and suddenly a strong white qi shot out, and when it hit the monster, it turned into Xiong Neng's fire. I saw that the monster's corpse was all right, and it didn't look like it was charred at all.

Then, he said: "This guy's shell is very hard, he is not afraid of fire, it may really be a fire dragon, it is not impossible to come out of the volcano." Didn't you know that other water monsters were like this? ”

"Is there anything unusual about the grass and trees next to it?" Zhu Yan added.

"No one has ever been in it, and before they reach the entrance of the cave, they may get lost. That place is very evil, and there is a thick fog everywhere, and any instrument will fail as soon as people enter, and they can't even argue between the east, west, north and south. The terrain there is complex, the vegetation grows very evilly, there are primeval forests everywhere, and there are surprisingly many kinds of creatures, which seem to be similar to this Changbai Mountain. The third senior brother thought for a moment and said.

"If that's the case, I'm sure this cave must lead underground, and the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi there must be very strong. It seems that this monster may really be an ancient dragon who hid underground, and now it is coming out through volcanoes and underground caverns. Zhu Yan made a summary, and said suspiciously: "It's just that tens of millions of years have passed, and they don't come out early or late, why do you choose to come out at this time?" ”

(There will be a change in the evening!) Late)
