Chapter 33: The Fire
There were more than a dozen dinosaurs on the island at once, but there was a lot more life, and it was no longer as lifeless as before.
Yang Qian was noncommittal about this, anyway, those dinosaurs didn't have time to bother themselves, they were all busy with the important matter of inheriting the ancestry. The three dinosaur brothers who were born and grew up with him in the same litter didn't care about him anymore, and took a different harem/harem every day to play those games in broad daylight in the shallow water on the edge of Jiangxin Island.
The muddy river water that has been tossed is constantly turning up the sediment, and a pair of hideous big guys of more than ten meters pretending to look like they are me, this is their daily life, and even the time to eat is saved.
Yang Qian simply turned a blind eye, and went to the depths of the river every day to catch a few fish for tooth sacrifices, and then wandered around the island when he had nothing to do, finding a few stones to smash together from time to time, hoping to see the sparks burst.
This is Yang Qian's method of studying fire.
There is really nothing but stone on Jiangxin Island.
Of course, more time is still cultivation, which is the best way to pass the time. The speed of his body's growth now is not very fast, but he feels that his ears and eyes have improved a lot, and his current cultivation state is probably more spiritual.
A heavy rain came.
Yang Qian lay on the highest boulder on the island, enjoying the massage of the waterfall-like rainstorm, listening to the rolling thunder in the sky, and squinting at the rolling river.
In fact, he couldn't see far from the line of sight of such a heavy rain, but he could see the small black spots in the river quite clearly.
A couple of female dinosaurs swam over again.
Yang Qian was lying lazily on his stomach, and he didn't want to expel them. It's okay to keep a few more dinosaurs in this water, as long as you don't keep coming. If he had done more, he would have thought about taking steps to get rid of some.
The heavy rain stopped suddenly, but Yang Gan's eyes suddenly lit up.
In the distance, there seemed to be a thick smoke rising from the mountains.
At first, it was just a small puff of smoke, as if it was the smoke of a rural farmhouse when I was a child in the previous life. But it soon grew bigger and bigger, and small black dots began to fly up from around it.
The smoke is getting louder and louder, and you can see it clearly even from a long distance.
It was a forest fire caused by thunder and lightning. There were already countless small black dots flying in the sky, which were small wyverns living in the forest.
When the fire gradually began to shine in the thick smoke, the sky was already covered with small pterosaurs, and from a distance, it seemed to be a dark cloud. You don't have to think about it to know what the scene is in the forest, it must be a mess of wolves and rats.
A fire is a disaster.
Disaster for the dinosaurs.
Unless it rains again, all the Cretaceous natives will have nothing to do but flee for their lives in the face of the fire.
The blazing fire soon burned half of the sky, and the smoke obscured the clouds.
Those tall giant trees that have grown for an unknown number of years are probably like torches at this time, and have become a nightmare for those slow forest dinosaurs.
Not all dinosaurs are good at running, and there are not a few dinosaurs living in the forest who are slow. They also have their own unique skills for dodging or defending against carnivorous dinosaurs, whether they are sharp horns or bone spurs, and even some omnivorous dinosaurs will carry with them sharp claws that even carnivorous dinosaurs will look at.
It's a pity that these unique stunts are far less useful than a pair of running legs when facing a fire.
The fire burned for two days before it was gradually extinguished.
Yang Qian kept staring at the direction of the fire, and he didn't even cultivate.
It's not that he's paying too much attention to the fire, it's that the few female dinosaurs that came here seem to be looking for him instead of his three dinosaur brothers.
When the fire first started, he only sighed a little about the disaster and began to think, should he take advantage of the fire to kill a lot of dinosaurs and go find some cooked food to taste by himself?
For more than 20 years, from small fish beetles to big fish dinosaurs, he has been swimming in the water from the sky to the ground, although he has eaten a lot, but not to mention cooked food, not even a little fireworks.
Thinking about the various stir-fried and street food I had eaten in my previous life, my saliva suddenly flowed out.
As a result, when I turned around inadvertently, I found that several female dinosaur crocodiles next to me were also drooling, but they were all staring at themselves and drooling.
The breath coming from his nose made him immediately understand the plan of several female dinosaur crocodiles, and then he swept them all off the boulder with a merciless swing of the dragon's tail.
Probably because his opposition was not fierce enough, in short, after a few female dinosaur crocodiles rolled down the boulder, they turned over and continued to surround him, although there was no big movement, but there was always a grind.
His nose was filled with the smell of female dinosaurs in heat, and at this time, these ugly and fierce water overlords with huge mouths and scaly armor were full of tenderness, and they kept circling around him, even as he repeatedly swept them off the boulders.
This made him very depressed, especially when he saw that the few female dinogules who were queuing up by the river not far away, waiting to play a shameless game with his three dire crocodile brothers, also began to stare at him, and he suspected that as long as he expressed something, he was afraid that these harems of his brothers would immediately become his own.
Thinking that he was surrounded by a large group of female dinosaur crocodiles, he felt a shudder in his heart, as if there was a small pimple on the scale armor.
Actually, it was nothing, he wasn't going to deal with them anyway. But the problem is that just as he felt that the once disgusting smell of blood had become delicious after he became a crocodile, he actually felt that the smell that was now filling his nose was not bad, and even made him a little nervous.
The thought startled him, and he never let a few female crocodiles get close to him on the boulder. began to stare at the distant firelight every moment, calm down, like water, and kept silently reciting: roast dragon legs, roast dragon wings...... Roasted dragon heart, dragon lungs, dragon liver......
I heard that the Buddhist scriptures have miraculous effects in this regard, but it is a pity that I did not learn and did not know how to do it in my previous life, although I read a lot of miscellaneous books, but there is no one that can be recited in full, otherwise......
After waiting for the fire in the forest to be extinguished, Yang Qian immediately made up his mind that he would go on an expedition and travel for a month.
Generally, the time for crocodiles to come into heat is one month.
After so many years of being with these cold-blooded animals, he really couldn't be ruthless to these female dinosaurs who were full of great succession, and thinking about the army of dinosaurs being barbecued in the distance, his appetite suddenly opened.
There's nothing to pack up, just keep going on the road alone. He continued the route, first going upstream along the river, then going ashore at the closest place to the fire, trying to reach his destination as quickly as possible, and then feasting and enjoying himself.
Traveling up the river, as he passed a group of dinosaurs upstream, the crocodiles did not stop their ongoing activities because of the arrival of the leader, and most of them were fighting for succession, but several female crocodiles saw him make a "friendly" call to him.
This sped him up a few more points.
The journey in the water soon came to an end, and after a night's rest, when the next day was slightly bright, he caught some fish to fill his stomach, and set out for the mountain without hesitation.
