Chapter XXVII
On the Sancha River Plain shrouded in night, except for the sound of insects from time to time, the heavens and the earth fell into a deep sleep.
Yang Gan, who had entered the state of spitting down, carefully sensed the little crocodile whose scale armor was already clear in the unknown galaxy.
The little crocodile still slowly shook its head and tail gently in the dim galaxy, the scale armor had been clear for a long time, and its body was still an illusory spot of light, and the heart and other internal structures of the body did not gradually appear as Yang Qian imagined.
He vaguely felt that he was in another bottleneck, and the rest was probably only accumulated over time.
It's like he wants to look for ruins, he knows that there should be, but unfortunately he can't find the direction.
After dawn, Yang Qian, whose whole body was exhausted, was refreshed. In his opinion, the problem of cultivation was not a problem. He had never forced it in his cultivation.
Because he couldn't ask for it if he wanted to.
Going with the flow is the best way to go.
So he completely left the problem of cultivation behind, and instead walked around the grove.
Soon, Yang Qian, who had found a suitable position, pulled the queen over.
"Giggle......
Faced with the queen's doubts, Yang Qian pulled out a spear from the ground and demonstrated it.
"So, hold it, and then throw, throw, just throw it at something in front of you......"
The weather soon became hot, and a morning was spent in Yang Gan's demonstration, and all the queen learned was to be able to hold a spear, follow his example, and stab towards the big tree in front of her.
And usually eight out of ten stabs have to go to the side.
When it was hot at noon, Yang Qian taught the queen to paint in the shade of the trees. Anyway, this one doesn't need to sweat, there is no need for a venue, and you can practice anytime, anywhere.
This made Yang Qian a little relieved, since eating the strange stone in the body of the relic monster, although the queen's appearance has not changed much, the flexibility of her claws, including its control over her own claws, has been improving rapidly.
Even if this speed was based on its original learning speed that was slower than that of a turtle, it still made Yang Qian happy.
Now the horned dragon painted by the queen is no longer like a hedgehog, at least six or seven points similar to the image of the small horned dragon.
When the evening was cooler, Yang Qian began to teach the queen to use a spear again.
In his mind, the use of tools is the greatest advantage of intelligent life, and only by learning to use basic weapons can he better protect himself in future battles and make himself less in danger.
Especially after learning to use ranged weapons, it is more useful in battle. In the Cretaceous period, he had not yet found any dinosaurs using weapons to fight, so the sudden use of long-range weapons in battle also had a sudden effect at least.
If you can get the opponent injured first, you will undoubtedly have a much greater advantage in battle.
Moreover, Yang Qian believed that in places he had never been to, there would definitely be more naturally evolved creatures, or creatures that evolved because of eating strange stones.
Among the creatures of the Cretaceous period, whether it is a plant-eating dinosaur or a carnivorous dinosaur, including crocodiles, etc., all have the habit of swallowing stones to help digestion, so it is not surprising to accidentally eat a strange stone.
In short, after seeing more and more evolved creatures, Yang Qian hoped that he and his companions could have more powerful force in order to prepare for his next global adventure.
"Chirp!"
The little horned dragon that had gone out to look for food to eat returned, and Xiaoqing, who was on its back, began to chirp as soon as it entered the grove.
Yang Qian looked at Xiaoqing, his heart was full of regret, this little thing didn't know how many unique skills to protect himself and survive, but unfortunately he couldn't communicate, so he couldn't find out the little guy's secret.
The Cretaceous period is not lacking in the primeval forest, the forest is full of strange plants, among them, I don't know how many have a peculiar effect, if he can find a few more, maybe when it will come in handy.
"Throw it out, throw it out ......"
Yang Gan shouted hoarsely, jumping and jumping, waving his two paws, and roaring at the queen.
It's the tenth day...... Originally, I thought that it would take three or five days to teach the queen to use the spear and set off, but unfortunately the truth was not transferred by his will, and until now, the queen still has not learned.
"Chirp!"
Xiaoqing is bored watching the bustle, it's like this every day, and there is nothing new.
The little flying dragon with no sense of existence was silent, and the day before yesterday it coaxed Xiaoqing and the horned dragon in early summer, and unfortunately was smoked together with the horned dragon. The little horned dragon didn't care about the rough skin and dry flesh in early summer, it wasn't, and now it understood at least one truth: silence is golden.
In the evening, when the queen returned from hunting, Yang Gan, who had been sullen, weakly announced the arrival of dinner time.
After a few bites of filling his stomach with his own portion of food, Yang Qian kept thinking, was it a little wrong to do this?
After thinking about it for a long time, he felt that he should try again, at least the queen's level of drawing things is good now, and she can now draw the little dragon herself.
Yang Qian, who had made up his mind, turned his head and saw the queen lying on the ground and the food in front of him, and was stunned.
Xiaoqing hasn't crossed the river for a few days, and the little tree that flows magical gum has also been knocked down by itself, why is it starting to lose its appetite again?
Every time he encountered such a situation, Yang Qian was a little crazy.
The plan to continue teaching the queen to use a spear was put on hold for the time being due to the queen's sudden loss of appetite.
Fortunately, three days later, the queen who returned from hunting again returned to her previous state, and Yang Gan's worries for three days suddenly disappeared, and he happily began to prepare for the next training plan.
The bad news was that when the meal was eaten three days later, the queen's appetite dropped sharply again, which made Yang Qian's head immediately grow again.
What's going on?
Could it be that a female velociraptor would be uncomfortable for a few days every month?
Isn't this scientific?
Judging from her usual behavior, there is nothing wrong with the queen, but the fluctuating amount of food makes Yang Qian crazy.
Finally, a month later, Yang Qian found that the queen's appetite no longer increased, but began to keep it very low.
He was a little anxious again.
In the small forest at night, Yang Qian had no intention of cultivating at all, staring at the Sancha River Plain under the starlight with big eyes, listening to the sound of insects one after another, and fell into deep thought.
The first time I met the queen in my memory, its arrogance at that time, its perseverance after encountering its injury, its lonely back after going crazy, its calmness and wit when it partnered with him to hunt and kill the flying dragon, and then seeing its declining spirit now, Yang Qian couldn't help but blame himself for a while.
Is it too hard to force it yourself?
As soon as he thought of this, he began to think back to the difficulty of getting the queen to grasp the spear in the first place, and the embarrassment of carrying the spear when she hurried.
It's been a month.
Seeing that the queen didn't eat so little for a single meal, he finally began to look for the reason in himself.
This time it reduced its appetite for the first time, after being trained by itself for a few days to spear, and then ...... He suddenly felt as if he had found the reason.
From the first time to reduce the amount of food, the second time to return to normal, continue training on its own, then it reduces the amount of food again, and after a few repetitions, simply reduce the amount of food completely.
Thinking that after they suddenly reduced their appetite, he had not let them practice using spears anymore, and he suddenly understood something.
"Click, click!"
In the woods, the sound of a spear breaking was crisp and pleasant.
Yang Gan, who had broken all the spears, gestured to the queen, then put the broken spears far away, pointed to the food he had hunted by the river early in the morning, and motioned to the queen to start eating.
Seeing that the queen still ate a little bit and stopped eating, Yang Qian continued to gesture towards it calmly.
"I won't practice spears anymore, I'll throw it away. Eat and eat ......"
With Yang Gan's unremitting efforts, the queen finally began to eat again, and soon, the queen, who had eaten more food than the normal amount of food, lay down beautifully in her nest made of python skin dragon feathers, and began to take a nap.
Yang Gan, who had obtained this result, was dejected.
It turned out that everything was forced out by himself.
The queen, who was not good at using tools at all, was forced by herself to practice spears with difficulty every day, and finally could not bear this pain, so she pretended to be sick, and just like last time, when she had little to eat, she did not need to practice spears again.
And he didn't realize it, which eventually led to a complete reduction in the amount of food he ate.
It turned out to be my own fault!
Is there really something wrong with your own approach?
Isn't the use of tools something that intelligent beings should learn?
Yang Gan, who was depressed for most of the night, felt that he was simply too a failure, and he actually forced a velociraptor to learn to pretend to be sick!
"Hey, hey, hey......"
After this thought flashed a few times, he suddenly stared at the sleeping queen inexplicably, and began to giggle.
Did it learn to feign illness?
Isn't that a sign of wisdom?
It's like a child pretending to be sick and not going to school, just like a child pretending to be sick to get something delicious.
It learned to play sick!
Doesn't that mean that its ability to think is getting stronger and stronger? Isn't that also a form of progress?
After thinking about this problem from a different angle, Yang Qian was a little proud again, looking at himself, he actually forced it to learn to pretend to be sick!
Perhaps, even if they are intelligent creatures, they should not use human standards to measure dinosaurs that have nothing to do with human beings at all?
After being happy, Yang Qian suddenly thought of such a question again.
Human beings developed wisdom and learned to use tools because they needed to protect themselves at that time, and under the persecution of nature, they had to use tools to fight with heaven and earth, and against the cruelty of nature.
The first tools they used were to fight against beasts and to be fed.
Including human beings learning to walk upright, it is also to liberate the upper limbs, use tools to protect themselves, and find food.
So, in the Cretaceous period, did the dinosaurs do this?
