Chapter Twenty-Five: The Situation of the Stinky Rock
It's a lot like a lion population at this point.
It is a kind of group life that is mainly family-oriented.
Ling Xiao continued to follow it and found that the stinky rock was developing rapidly.
The population of the stinky rock she tracked, and not long after she caught up, a small stinky rock was born.
In less than a year, a croaking stinky rock has grown into a half-sized individual.
When Ling Xiao saw this scene, he was really shocked, this grew too fast, right?
It can be described in one word: that is, the windward long.
I can't complain that there will be so many stinky rocks.
And look at the human race.
The growth period takes more than 10 years.
Even if it's an eighteen-year-old adult.
Compared with the stinky rock, it is simply a world of difference.
In addition to the huge difference in the growth period, there is also a huge gap in combat effectiveness.
Human toddlers are too weak to be one year old, and Stinky Rock is already able to fight with adults.
After noting these circumstances, Ling Xiao felt very interested in investigating, the two species were so different.
I'm afraid that the stinky rock has some defects in development, probably because the things in the brain are different.
I don't know what is secreted and what side effects there are.
As a result, its physical fitness is particularly strong in all aspects.
It has a strong physical strength and strength bonus.
But the brain is not very developed.
Very weak in IQ.
I sighed like that.
Ling Xiao was still tracking the group of stinky rocks.
Her tracking didn't delay her mission.
At the moment of arriving at Jiangling Pass, her intuition told her to go out.
When following the stinky rock, she also paid attention to the fake original owner, and found that she was also a little more interested.
Even the three meows who have been lying down have changed a little, as if they feel something, what's wrong?
The abnormal movement of the two of them made Ling Xiao feel that something was wrong, and she was very careful when walking, for fear of falling into the pit and not being able to climb up.
It can be said that she almost became a wild man in this year, but fortunately she carried enough supplies.
Because she had brought enough stuff, she didn't replenish her food on the Stinky Rock's grounds.
When she found out something later, she was secretly glad that she didn't add anything.
Because she found a problem that was very likely to arise.
As she went deeper, her instincts told her.
She's almost there.
At this time, something happened to the stinky rock group she was following.
The small male was driven out of the population when he was about to reach adulthood.
Burst! At this point, it is also very similar to the attitude of a lion towards a young male lion.
Poor little Stinky Rock was driven away, and the population moved forward, meeting another population.
I don't know what the reason is, but there was a big war between the two populations, and the fight was earth-shattering.
Later, something surprising happened to Ling Xiao, Stinky Rock would eat the corpses of the same kind!
I go, how can this be? How did this happen?
But she soon understood.
The Stinky Rocks couldn't find much to eat.
They are so hungry that they just want to survive.
They had to devour their own kind to get enough calories.
In this way, they can survive, and when Ling Xiao saw this, he understood why they went to Jiangling Pass.
The reason why they attack humans is also supposed to be to survive.
In their eyes, humans are a kind of food.
But human beings have not weak combat effectiveness.
In the confrontation with humans.
Even if the stinky rocks are stupid.
There should also be some taboos against people.
Although humans are not as strong as them.
But human brains are much smarter than they are at the stinky rock.
They made a lot of sharp weapons.
In the confrontation between the two sides again and again.
Gradually, the upper hand was gained.
They.
Reluctance to attack.
It's just later.
Their numbers are expanding too quickly.
The food on the ground is really not enough to feed them.
In order to be fed, in order to survive, they will attack humans.
Of course, these ideas were all speculated by Ling Xiao himself, and he was not sure.
The reason why there is not enough food is probably because there were too many stinky rocks in the past, and the food was exhausted.
Even if you want to recover, you have to recover for a while, and it's too late to recover.
The stinky rocks that were driven back by the humans were so hungry that they killed each other.
Even in order to live, eat the corpses of the same kind.
Ling Xiao hid it even more tightly.
She's also food.
In the eye of the stinky rock.
Ling Xiao also noticed one thing.
That's because of the stinky rocks after cannibalism.
After eating the corpses of their own kind, the stinky rocks will become ill.
It will also cause widespread death, which is a major extermination operation.
In the process, although other animals will die, it is the stinky rock that dies the most.
What's going on? Ling Xiao was very curious.
In the process, she chose to be a bystander.
She didn't try to save the stinky rock.
Just look at it slowly.
Is it the virus and bacteria carried by the stinky rock body that are out of control?
Eventually, after they eat their own kind, there is a big problem?
If Ling Xiao is the kind of expert who studies viruses and bacteria, he may be full of curiosity.
They will run over and investigate carefully to see how they died.
But she wasn't, she had no intention of looking at them up close.
You have to know viruses, bacteria, and so on.
Sometimes they fight across species.
I heard about the Ebola virus in Zaire, which has a fatality rate of 90 percent.
It has always been parasitic somewhere in Africa, but human beings have never found the source.
Humans can only suspect that it is parasitic on some unknown animal, and it suddenly explodes, and then disappears.
The Ebola virus did not harm parasites, but it killed humans, primates.
After knowing this knowledge, Ling Xiao didn't go up, and chose to look at it from a distance.
There are no quarantine measures now.
One is not good.
Just put yourself on it.
Of course she wouldn't do such a stupid thing.
This body is not her own.
Or be careful to maintain it.
In case of.
Is the original owner back?
Plagued by this disease.
The amount of stinky rock is decreasing considerably.
Ling Xiao was super curious, and she watched from afar.
So what is the reason for those surviving stinky rocks?
Is it their physical reason? Or what is the reason?
Ling Xiao thought for a moment and made a guess.
It should be a young and strong stinky rock.
One by one, they are stronger.
There will be many who will survive.
Soon found out that he was slapped in the face.
Most of the surviving stinky rocks are old.
In fact, their symptoms are relatively mild.
Could it be that their immune system has experienced it, so they have antibodies?
There were also some survivors, and Ling Xiao also found that most of them had eaten one thing.
She ran to look for it, and soon recognized the plant.
It's a plant that grows after the stinky rock corpse is buried.
But why are they all smaller?
In Ling Xiao's memory.
This plant has been growing well.
And this gnawed on is simply what it has just grown.
At this time, a thought suddenly came to her mind, and she actually remembered bamboo.
That kind of perennial plant, after many years of growth, will suddenly bloom and bear fruit.
And after the bamboo bears the fruit, it will wither, causing the animals that feed on the bamboo to fall into crisis.
So, could this be the case with this plant?
Ling Xiao began to look for it.
Look around here.
The growth of the plant.
At this moment, the false original owner couldn't sit still.
She asked with some curiosity, "Sister, what's wrong?" What are you looking for? ”
Ling Xiao replied: "I want to see the distribution of plants, how?" What new discoveries have you made? ”
"No, I just feel like my sister has made some discoveries."
