"Go now? Don't you have to wait for Huang Changfu to get them? ”

The third uncle shook his head: "We can't wait, we have to go over first to see if there is anything abnormal." ”

Fat Dahai started the car, and we set off again for the wild graveyard.

Just on the way, my phone rang.

Originally, when I came here, no one would call me. But because I sent an email to Ma Jian two days ago, I was afraid that he would look for me if there was news from there, so I kept charging the phone.

I answered the phone, and sure enough, it was Ma Yan.

I called out to the old horse. The third uncle immediately asked the fat man to stop the car and motioned for me to turn on the hands-free.

Ma Yan's voice came from the phone: "Li Yang, are you still in that yellow mud ditch?" ”

"Old horse, we're still here. Did you see the email sent to you? ”

"See. I said, how do you always come across such strange creatures? If there is such a thing in the future, I will definitely be called. Ma Tan looked very excited over there, and his tone was very high.

I smiled wryly, "We wouldn't have thought we'd come across this before we came." Old horse, have you found out what is the name of this fish? ”

"Found it. I looked up many years ago in the archives of the school, and the people at the institute used to study this fish. However, the living environment of this fish is very special, and it is also very simple, not universal, and it is extremely difficult to survive in captivity. ”

At this time, the third uncle was listening on the side, and said directly into the microphone: "I said old horse, you can't have this attitude when you study academics." What does it mean that it is not universal, and it is extremely difficult to survive in captivity, so I will not investigate in depth? The more this is the case, shouldn't you treat this animal as a rare animal? At the very least, apply for a national first-class and second-class protected animal or something. Besides, let me ask you, don't you even know what this fish is? ”

The third uncle's mouth was like a machine gun, Balabala said. This made Ma Jian angry enough, and shouted over there: "You stinky old way, you know ...... Ball? ”

The fat man and I watched the third uncle from the sidelines and couldn't help laughing.

At the beginning, this Ma Jian didn't deal with the third uncle, and once he quarreled, he was also swearing. Later, he may feel that by doing so, he would lose his identity as a professor and be insulted by Sven, so he consciously restrained himself. But I feel that I don't swear and suffer when I quarrel with the third uncle, so I often change the word to quarrel with the third uncle.

This time, I guess he wants to say, you know a fart. Later, I thought it was bad, so I changed it to You Know a Ball.

Ma Tan continued, "How could I not know what kind of fish this is. I know what you call this fish in the Saddle Lake, but this refers to a local name for that place, and the scientific name of this fish is actually called the squid. ”

"Turtle? Which character is it? The third uncle asked.

"The rat word of the mouse, the fraction of the fraction. The word "mole" usually refers to a kind of mole rat, which is a mammal that is good at burrowing in the ground, damaging the roots and pastures of crops, and even harming river embankments. Also known as "blind mouse" and "ground sheep". The reason why this fish is called the mole is because it and the mole are actually animals of the same family. Despite its fish-like appearance, it is a mammal, similar in nature to a whale. "First Reading Network

After listening to Ma Tan's explanation, I realized that the saddle lake ratfish is the squid that Ma Tan said, and what is even more bizarre is that it actually belongs to the same family as that kind of squirrel. To put it bluntly, the mole and the mole are actually relatives.

It sounds a bit strange that fish and rats became relatives. But I believe that what Ma Tan said must have been demonstrated before he said it.

"Old horse, I want to know, is there any relationship between the mole and the tomb mouse?" The third uncle lost the mind to play with Ma Yan, and asked directly.

Ma Jian naturally knows the priority of the matter, and he no longer cares about the third uncle. He replied to the third uncle: "I also know the tomb rat, as far as I know, these two animals are the same kind of animal at all. It's just that after a long period of environmental changes, some mole rats have undergone physical mutations and become the kind of tomb rats you are talking about. ”

"Then old horse, can you say that, since the mole fish and the mole are of the same family, and the mole and the tomb mouse are the same creature, then the mole and the tomb mouse are also related?"

Ma Tan replied, "Of course it does. In fact, the word 鼢鱼 is also the same as the word for grave. Grave fish and grave rats, literally, can also be seen in the relationship between the two. And I'll tell you, there's a reason why we don't continue to study the squid. Because the creature of the mole does not appear in the world by the reproduction of normal creatures. ”

"Not by reproduction? So how did they come about? I was puzzled and asked.

"We are studying living things, and the species of living organisms, through the continuous reproduction in nature, continue to progeny, and the species can survive, which is the normal natural law and the law of nature. However, the mole fish became a mole fish through the long-term consumption of a substance by tomb rats, which led to the mutation of body structure and function. It's not a law of nature, and it's not accepted in nature, so we don't delve into it. ”

Ma Tan's explanation is reasonable. Ben also made it clear why they didn't continue to study the squid, but the third uncle's interest was even greater.

He then asked, "Old horse, let me ask you." You said that the mole fish was made by the tomb rat eating a substance for a long time, so what did the tomb rat eat? ”

Ma Jian smiled on the other side of the phone: "You are an old man, do you still need to ask me this question?" Where the grave rats live, what else can there be? And the reason why the tomb rat can evolve into a mole is that there is another condition that is indispensable. ”

"On what terms?" The third uncle asked.

"I said, you are an old Taoist, is your cultivation so rusty that your head is rusty. To evolve into a moar, of course, you need to have water. Otherwise, would you let the squid live in the soil? ”

This time, the third uncle didn't continue to argue with Ma Yan, nodded, and stopped asking questions.

Ma Yanhe talked on the phone for a while, asking me to bring him a squid back if it was possible. Although they don't advocate further research on the mob, he doesn't have any issues on his hand right now, so he can try to study them. I answered and hung up the phone.

"Grave rats, squids, necessary conditions, water ......"

The third uncle muttered, his eyes rolling around.

"Third uncle, is Ma Tan's phone call valuable?" I couldn't help but ask.

The third uncle nodded: "Yes, it is valuable." Originally, I was just a guess, but now it's basically the same. That Saddle Lake must be connected to this wild cemetery. ”
