Dragon World Tour The history of dragons
When everyone walked through the gate, the sinuous keel of a thousand-year-old dragon appeared in front of them.
The keel hovers at the entrance of the hall as a welcome sign for the museum.
"The development of any race is gradual. "Humans didn't have a spaceship in one day, and they went to the sky and the earth. As our dragons, we naturally have our own stories" Hakusha said, "Some unpleasant things happened before, this is my fault, and now I will lead you to visit the museum of the dragons, so as to tell you how our dragons began a journey of life that lasted for hundreds of millions of years......"
Everyone's eyes were still lingering on the sinuous keel, but the White Brake had already led them into an exhibition hall. In the exhibition hall, there are large and small dinosaur skeletons, pterosaurs, sorghums, triceratops, Tyrannosaurus rex, and paractenosaurus. On the ceiling hangs a complete dragon skeleton, more than ten meters long, which looks very powerful.
Lu Yebao once went to Changzhou Dinosaur Park and saw a lot of dinosaur skeletons, but it was really small compared to what he was looking at.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the ancestor of our dragon family, a species called dinosaurs by humans. As he walked, he said, "They may be huge, like dragons. Or fierce and powerful, like a Tyrannosaurus rex, or good at flying, like a pterodactyl. In that wild world, the oxygen density in the air is extremely high, giving birth to their unique and huge bodies. ”
"The indulgent development of the power of the wilderness soon dominated the land, sea and air, and the dinosaurs continued to evolve while adapting and dominating the earth. Life always longs for perfection, and quantitative changes accumulate qualitative changes. On the road to evolution along the circle, it finally appeared. ”
As he spoke, he stopped, and everyone looked in the direction it was looking and saw a dinosaur with only two feet and bat wings.
When Tian Yu saw this dinosaur skeleton, he couldn't help but be attracted to it. Fascinated, she walked up and looked up at every detail of the skeleton as if she were looking at a perfect work of art.
"Maybe it's just a coincidence!" said Hakusha, "but this dinosaur has successfully evolved a new branch, and this branch is like the mammalian human in the dinosaurs, and in its later development, it has proved its great vitality." White Cha said
"Originally, our ancestors were too large to fly, and could only rely on their wings for short jumps. It is not much stronger than the average carnivorous dinosaur, but its strong body and superior structure make it have a slight advantage over other dinosaurs. It is this slight advantage, whether it is hunting or escaping, the ancestors continue to create miracles in the later development"
"Later on the way, the ancestors evolved an organ similar to a fish's bubble, through which the body was filled with air, the body became lighter, and it became possible to fly......
Later, "White Brake looked a little excited" The air in the ancestors gradually turned into hydrogen, which can provide buoyancy and assist the power of the wings, and the problem of flight is perfectly solved. You come with me......"
White Brake turned to the right and entered a pavilion where some primitive dragon specimens were on display, and several dragon heads were placed in glass frames.
"The skull of a dragon is on display here, and it can be seen that each dragon has different horns. Every dragon is more or less proud of its horns, which have been used as a means of defense for dragons until we acquire weapons, and the shape and growth of the horns can also reflect the health and strength of a dragon when choosing a mate. Young dragons do not have horns, and they do not develop until after puberty. During the growth of dragon horns, it is necessary to constantly rub against rocks and trees so that they can become sharper and grow better. Dragon horns also often come in handy when it comes to dragon duels. ”
"Wait a minute. "Ziyu interrupted, "You just mentioned weapons, did the dragons get any weapons?"
"You ...... here," said Hakusha, leading the group to a dragon-shaped specimen that was charred black and looked a little miserable.
"What's wrong with it?" Ziyu asked
Tian Yu walked over, bent down and took a closer look, "It's so dark, as if it has been burned by fire." ”
"An accident, according to our historical records, the dragon grinded the horns on its head on a rock or a tree, and in the process of rubbing, accidentally hiccuped ......"
"Hiccup?" Lu Yebao echoed
"Because of the hiccups, it spewed out the hydrogen in its body, and because of the friction between the dragon's horns and the trees, it created a spark, a terrible chemical reaction, and the flames instantly engulfed it......"
"No!" Ziyu exclaimed, "just because of a hiccup."
"With our current knowledge, we know exactly what happened, but the ancestors didn't know that. "They just panicked, but the same thing happened over and over again. ”
"Just like human beings drill wood to make fire, the ancestors went from fear of fire to gradual learning, and after a long period of time, some of them couldn't sit still, and wanted to use this set of theories, they wanted to master the ability to breathe fire. After many attempts, scars and failures, one day, the flames rose to the sky, and they succeeded. Spitfire became a weapon, a necessary survival skill for dragons, taught to young dragons by adult dragons. It has been passed down from generation to generation."
Lu Yebao nodded while listening, "I don't know if I don't listen, I'm startled when I hear it." I can't think of any other reason for this. ”
"Later," said Hakusha, "as we continued to sharpen our horns, we discovered that certain elements on certain ores were extremely easy to trigger flames, so the Ancestors began to devour the ores in order to increase their flamethrowing capabilities. ”
"Devouring ore?" Lu Yebao asked curiously, "How to use it?"
"Come and see," Bai Cha asked Lu Yebao to come to an open dragon's mouth, "Our dragon's teeth are very unique. Behind the gums, molars are used to grind hard objects. And such a tooth can be used as an igniter with a slight modification. ”
"I put the lighter in my mouth with the ore...... Lu Yebao said
"Huh. Bai Cha smiled, his smile full of warmth, "I told you before that dragons are good at all kinds of skills, such as using poison, such as changing color, in fact, there are also fire-breathing, voice changing, and so on. In the process of evolution, the Ancestors were somewhat similar to you humans in that they were always learning from other species. So the original clumsy winged dinosaurs gradually evolved like fish, like birds, and like beasts. Enjoy the journey of life to the fullest."
"It's incredible. Tianxin said
"I think that even if this world has wisdom, nothing can be certain, such a life, in the thousands of years since, began to fight against nature, fate, and heaven!"
Because of the white brake's colorful narration, everyone was a little fascinated by what they listened.
"White brakes. Lu Yebao said, "What you just said is what happens on the earth, but science has repeatedly claimed that there are no dragons in the world. ”
"Then something happened, the boy" Baicha's voice was slightly regretful, "the days of peace are often short-lived, and while the ancestors gradually developed and matured, they also faced crises. And that crisis is fate!" Hakusha said, looking up at the ceiling.
Through its shining pupils, everyone seemed to see what it was like. "That day, the judgment of fate, an asteroid flew out of the universe and cut through the atmosphere. With a roar, the explosion of a nuclear weapon thousands of times larger than that of Japan, destroying the structure of the earth, no one knows how long that fire burned, only that it burned most of the oxygen. In the years that followed, the earth entered the land of ice peaks, and once had a green home, either burned or withered. There was only cold and dead bodies everywhere......"
Listening to this, Ziyu covered her mouth with her hands.
"In such a catastrophic catastrophe, most of the lives were wiped out. "But there are also some life, such as insects, such as turtles, crocodiles, snakes, etc., which have survived from ancient times. This shows that this extermination is not despair, and as long as it is not despair, there will be miracles. The world has become frozen and snow-white, but beneath that deep sea, in the midst of a cave. Part of the ancestor's bloodline survived. ”
"The ancestors who escaped the catastrophe of the world are gradually ushering in a new era, a species that has survived the mass extinction, and on the way to regain domination of the earth, it finally encounters the fierce enemy of this life - humans. ”
