Chapter 243: The Lost World

readx; In Professor Zhao's low and dejected words, everyone's speculation was confirmed. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 At the same time that Ning Xiaofan and others were attacked by fish, Professor Zhao and others were also attacked by fish.

At that time, one of the two rubber boats was in front and one in the back, and the rubber boat in front almost couldn't reach the shore. The rubber boat sank, and Professor Zhao and others all fell into the water, but the slight difference in the time of falling into the water caused the two armed men who fell into the water first to lose their lives, while Professor Zhao and others who fell into the water later escaped.

If Ning Xiaofan hadn't thrown the concussion bomb in time, Professor Zhao and the others would definitely not have escaped the fate of being buried in the belly of the fish. Even so, Professor Zhao and the others were already in rags, and through the tattered clothes, the bloody wounds made people palpitate

After listening to Professor Zhao's narration, everyone couldn't help but feel a little bit of kinship, and they were also overshadowed, counting the young assistant teacher who was killed by a group of small monsters not long ago, in just two days, three lives have been lost.

The future is uncertain, and I don't know what dangers will be encountered? I don't know if I will be able to survive the next journey?

On the surface of the river, there are fish with white bellies, many of which have been pushed to the shore by the waves generated by the explosion, and they can be picked up by leaning over. However, no one picked it up, and even the fat man seemed to have forgotten to get these fish to make fish soup.

After being attacked by a school of fish, everyone was not only physically and mentally exhausted, but also more or less injured, so they rested near the shore, treated their injuries by the way, and dried their clothes soaked by the river.

Li Wanting has been under Ning Xiaofan's protection, but she is not damaged at all, while Ning Xiaofan is much more embarrassed, her coat is torn in many places, and her exposed hands and face are bitten by fish.

Of course, there is a reward for paying, and his wounds are handled by Li Wanting, and the soaked clothes are also baked by her, which is not only worry-free, but also enjoyable......

After a short rest, everyone packed up and continued the rest of the trip.

The landscape in the area ahead is a little strange, but the scenery is beautiful, with lush plants, birds and flowers, and through the lush jungle, you can see the huge rock mass that towers in the middle of it.

However, although the scenery is beautiful, due to the loss of two team members, everyone is in a bad mood, has no intention of appreciating, and has no heart to speak, one by one burying their heads in the road, the atmosphere is a little heavy.

What's more, this jungle gives people a sense of life, and God knows what dangerous creatures are hiding within. So much so that every time a brightly colored bird flutters by, or a small animal with a towering hair suddenly bursts out, it can make everyone break out in a cold sweat.

Soon, the group came to a rock mass that stood in the middle of the jungle

This rock mass is about ten meters high, the shape is strange, it looks like an entrenched tiger from a distance, and when it comes to the front, the visual effect is limited, and what catches the eye is only a huge dark red rock mass.

This rock mass aroused the interest of the expert surnamed Liu, who immediately took out the tools and walked under the rock mass to study it.

Ning Xiaofan got along with Professor Zhao and others in the past two days, and he also knew a little more about their surnames, and an expert like this kind of professionalism in academia would not forget his job because of danger, and this professional attitude also made him admire.

Research takes time, Ning Xiaofan no longer left it alone as he did at the beginning, but arranged for people to be on guard, and the rest of the people rested on the spot.

Perhaps Ning Xiaofan's attitude towards experts has changed, but Professor Zhao, who looks more old-fashioned, did not conduct his academic research, but came to Ning Xiaofan's side and sighed with a face: "This is really a good place, if there are conditions, I am really willing to stay here for the rest of my life." ”

Ning Xiaofan smiled slightly: "Professor Zhao, this is a desolate underground depth, can you stay?"

"Why can't you stay? Every plant, every creature, even if it's an ordinary stone, if you take it outside, it's definitely a great discovery that can shock the world, and it's like an endless treasure trove, worth studying here for a lifetime......"

Professor Zhao sighed in his mouth, turned his eyes to Ning Xiaofan, and said: "Young man, I also know a little bit about the purpose of your coming here, and if Professor Wu takes a rock sample and tests the results, maybe it will surprise you." ”

Ning Xiaofan was slightly stunned: "Surprise? What does it matter to me that he has developed the results?"

Professor Zhao smiled, but did not respond.

Ning Xiaofan was wondering, there was movement on Professor Wu's side, and he turned around and shouted at Professor Zhao with an excited expression: "Old Zhao, you are right, this is really a lost world, a great discovery, a great discovery......

"Listen, there are results, maybe your surprise is coming." Professor Zhao smiled, threw down a sentence, and walked towards Professor Wu.

Ning Xiaofan was a little foggy, and glanced at Li Wanting beside him a little inexplicably, but Li Wanting had a trace of confusion in her eyes, and she didn't seem to understand what Professor Zhao meant by this?

Shaking his head, Ning Xiaofan followed Li Wanting in confusion.

When I came to the bottom of the rock mass, I saw Professor Wu holding a small rock knocked down from the rock mass in his hand, and used a magnifying glass to look at the rock over and over again.

"How? I'm right, right?" Professor Zhao asked with a smile.

"That's right, that's right......" Professor Wu said excitedly: "You see, the rock particles in my hand are uniform and fine, containing lithophyllous algae, as well as calcareous ultrafine fossils, marine sediments of biological origin, whether it is color and density, and the calcite characteristics I got before are very similar, no, my rock mass is made of calcite stacking!"

"Calcite really? Then what do you mean......" Professor Zhao didn't finish his words, but his eyes showed a hint of hope.

Professor Wu's eyes lit up and said, "I can say responsibly that the area we are in should be about a month ago. 3 to l. The fault zone 500 million years ago, according to this time, is the White Age!"

"Bai Ji? Is it really Bai Ji?" When Professor Zhao heard this, he also became excited.

Professor Wu said excitedly: "Professor Zhao, that's right, the rock marks of Baiji are very obvious and clear, I will never be mistaken, as Professor Zhao said, Baiji is the period when dinosaurs are most active and the species are most abundant!" It is also said that the jawed dragon survived during this period. Hehe, you also said that this is equivalent to the lost world, and now you can be sure that this is a lost world, and the lost Bai Ji really exists in this underground world, doesn't it match your reasoning......"

"Sure enough, that's true, in this pit today, we can actually get involved in Bai Ji, it's incredible, it's incredible......" Professor Zhao listened to Professor Wu's words, and he became excited, and even his voice trembled a little.

Finally calming down, Professor Zhao turned to Ning Xiaofan and said, "Young man, the ore you are looking for should not be far away." ”

"Not far away? Professor Zhao, what do you mean by that?" Ning Xiaofan's heart moved, and he couldn't help but be polite to Professor Zhao and used honorifics.

"Hehe, it's very simple, Professor Feng of our school once went down to this sinkhole to investigate, and found a piece of ore, which was later handed over to your Xinao Group, I don't know how important that ore is to your Xinao Group? However, I later learned that Xinao Group continues to invest in this pit today, and its purpose is to find more similar ores......"

Professor Feng? Ning Xiaofan was slightly stunned, the man in Tang costume who wouldn't say it, right? Thinking about it, Ning Xiaofan couldn't help but glance at Li Wanting.

It just so happened that Li Wanting was also looking at him at this time, and the two made eye contact, Li Wanting seemed to know that Ning Xiaofan was asking herself with her eyes, and nodded to him with a wave of eyes.

It's really a man in Tang costume, Ning Xiaofan got the answer from Li Wanting's expression, and for no reason, he felt a little uncomfortable.

I only heard Professor Zhao continue: "After Professor Feng returned to Jiangnan, I also talked to him privately, and also asked about the ore, Professor Feng said that he signed a confidentiality agreement, and he didn't tell me the details, only revealed that the ore you are looking for in Xinao belongs to the ore that only existed in ancient times, and if it is divided according to the age, it should be ...... before the Bai Age."

When Professor Zhao said this, he paused slightly and said: "Before the White Period, it was the Jurassic and Triassic, and the ore found by Professor Feng also found fossils from the Triassic period, so the ore you are looking for is roughly in the Triassic." There was a dinosaur extinction event in the Triassic, and academically it is proposed that it was during that period that the Triassic began.

As for the cause of the extinction of the dinosaurs, although there is no correct explanation so far, most paleontologists have made inferences about meteorites hitting the earth, so ...... I guess the ore you're looking for should be related to meteorites......"

Maybe Professor Zhao said it too professionally, Ning Xiaofan was still confused when he heard this, but when he heard him talk about meteorites, his heart still jumped slightly, it seems that he really can't underestimate the IQ of these experts, just analyze it. At that moment, he couldn't help but say: "Professor Zhao, I heard Professor Wu say just now that the place we are in is the Bai Period, what does it have to do with the Triassic when the ore was discovered?"

Professor Zhao smiled: "It's a big deal, have you noticed it, since we entered this sinkhole, have we been going down?"

Always going down? Ning Xiaofan thought about it for a while, it was really as Professor Zhao said, from the day he entered the sinkhole, it seemed that he had been walking downhill, and as he continued to go deeper, he had also gone down vertically into the depths of the ground many times, taking the glowing forest as an example, didn't it go down vertically from a cave at the beginning, and the drop seemed to be quite long.

In his mind, Ning Xiaofan touched his nose and replied, "It seems like this......"
