Chapter 124: Phalaenopsis
"Good evening, dear audience friends."
In the finely decorated room, Fu Haitao was well-dressed.
"After nearly a month of digging, we finally have an increasingly sensational discovery!"
During the period when he went out to explore fossils, Fu Haitao had a live broadcast every three or four days, and sometimes he talked about the interesting stories of the scientific expedition team during his speech.
Sometimes I just chatted with the fans in the live broadcast room, played small games, or went to the live broadcast room of other beautiful female anchors to check the room.
The main reason why it was so easy in the arduous exploration operation was that Fu Haitao did not go into the ground much.
The excavation work was all handed over to the members of the institute and the intern students, and Fu Haitao only watched from the side and listened to Wu Qianshan talk about knowledge.
This time, it is the Fu Zhou Research Institute that leads the fossil exploration, and even if you don't do it, the final academic results will all belong to Fu Haitao and Wu Qianshan.
Outsiders only think that enterprises can't pay back their costs by spending money to open a research institute, but in fact, there is quite a lot of oil and water in it.
The money from the sale of fossils is another saying that a large number of precious fossil specimens are in their hands, and other scholars who want to study and write decent papers can only borrow them, and the rent is shouted by the Fu Zhou Research Institute.
More critically, there are "positive model" fossils.
After discovering a new species, the discoverer can number a fossil and specify it as a positive model, which can be understood as the most correct and orthodox fossil template.
If there is any doubt about the same type of fossils found in the future, all of them are based on the positive model.
The few positive model fossils in Fu Zhou's research institute, plus the positive model fossils in Wu Qianshan's research institute, continue to bring them a steady stream of wealth.
They don't want to stop there, but want to swallow more precious fossils.
New species are difficult to find, and model fossils are difficult to obtain, and what Fu Haitao shows at this time is a rather rare dinosaur fossil.
"Look, this is a pterodactyl! The world's third fossil of a Strange Pterodactyl. ”
As a member of the ornithosauridae, the Odd Pterodactyl has important clues to the evolution of dinosaurs into birds.
The results displayed by Fu Haitao made the barrage in the live broadcast room exclaim.
"Therefore, everyone must believe in the research institute with qualifications and heritage, and Yu Xian, the kind of fossil hunter who doesn't know where to drill, dig up some protoceratops and stegosaurus that can be seen everywhere and show off everywhere."
Fu Haitao has a lot of disparagement for Xian, and never mentions that the world's second-ranked Odd Pterodactyl fossil was discovered by Yu Xian.
Friend A: That Yu Xian also said that he would continue to dig fossils on the cold plateau.
Friend B: Yes, it's funny, the Hanjiang Plateau in this weather has to be several degrees below zero during the day.
Friend C: No, the snow is covering the mountains, and I really want to go inside, I'm afraid I'm hanging inside.
Fu Haitao and the fans who support him in the live broadcast room are expected to be idle in the depths of the cold plateau, and at most hide in a city hotel on the plateau.
Their judgment of idleness is outrageously wrong, and their description of bad weather is correct.
The sky was gloomy, and the snow was falling down, and the snow was no longer up to the instep where the highland wolf had eaten the corpse yesterday.
"We've got to hurry."
If the snow falls harder and the weather gets colder, Yu Xian can't bear it.
The ground is covered in a thick layer of snow, which limits the search ability of the Dragon Atlas, and more importantly, the temperature drops even further and can break the laptop.
It is almost impossible to search outside in the future, and the camp has to be changed to a different place, changed to the cemetery, and by the way, see if there are dinosaur fossils that the ancients took in the cemetery as decorations.
Finalizing the follow-up strategy, Yu Xian took out the cursed shovel and dug at the point pointing downward.
As a game item, the cursed shovel is connected to the system, and Yu Xian can delicately perceive the feeling of the shovel's feedback, and the fineness of the excavation action is much higher than that of ordinary tools.
Wow
There was a crisp crashing sound, and the cursed shovel slammed lightly on the rock face, and Yu Xian knew that he was in big trouble.
The fossil is likely to be hidden under a rock slab, or it may be encased in a large piece of surrounding rock.
I don't know what kind of dinosaur fossil it is, so I have to find a way to strip it out.
Digging a wider area of slush ground, Yu Xian tried to move his steps left and right, and found that within one or two square meters, the arrow of the dragon map was roughly pointing downward.
It shows that the fossil covers such a large area and should be very large, perhaps a dinosaur with a high degree of integrity.
As the snow and dirt were excavated, Yu Xian found that the rock area was too wide to pry up the slabs directly.
So... It can only be cut.
In the past, cutting fossils embedded in the rock mass required the help of white ink to cut through the rock with a lamination knife and internal strength.
Now Yu Xian has a weapon that can't be damaged: the Cursed Shovel
Slide shovel!
Slide shovel!
Four sliding shovels, the rock has an extra square incision, cutting out a square area.
Further down, Yu Xian didn't dare to use the sliding shovel, the fossil was too big, and he was afraid of damaging it.
Find a cutting line and dip the Cursed Shovel into it and tilt it upwards.
"Is it so hard?!"
Yu Xian can actually call out the Feathered Tyrannosaurus and use the lever principle to step on the end of the cursed shovel, but he is still worried about hurting the fossil when the rock slab is torn apart.
Change the method, use the cursed shovel to make a slight hole in it, and when it comes into contact with the fossil, it will be changed to Taiqing autopsy and separation.
The corner of the rock on the surface was cut open, and the dragon map was finally firmly inserted into the stone, marking the location of the fossil.
"It's not easy."
After a long day of surviving, Yu Xian finally saw such a bit of fossil body.
Instead of many bones stacked together, it appears to be a single giant bone.
On the update page of the dragon hunting atlas, Yu Xian's mind didn't look at the name of the dinosaur at the first time, and his attention was completely attracted by the percentage.
5%...
The integrity of fossils in such a large area is 5%?!
What big monster?!
Take a closer look at the specific information, and it will be clear to you.
Phalaenopsis, with a fossil integrity of 5%, lived in the late Jurassic period 140 million years ago.
It's really a behemoth.
Or take the data of Tyrannosaurus rex as a comparison, the maximum length of the existing Tyrannosaurus rex fossils is more than 14 meters, and the heaviest may be 9 tons.
Phalaenopsis was more than 30 meters long, more than 7 meters tall, and weighed about 30 tons.
This kind of dinosaur that can grow to a very large size is generally a herbivorous dinosaur.
In order to deal with predators, vegetarian dinosaurs had two routes, one was to fold their armor, and the other was to produce meat.
Stacked armor such as ankylosaurus and spiny ankylosaurus.
Getting out of the flesh is equivalent to getting bigger, like the Mamenxi Dragon.
Butterfly dragons belong to the Mamenxi dragon family, which is also a member of the large flesh-producing family, and also has the characteristics of a particularly long neck.
30 meters in total length, of which the neck reaches 15 meters.
"Ahh It's too hard to dig up. ”
These dragons are too large to put together a complete skeleton, so even if they don't have the research value of the paper, the Phalaenopsis fossils are still valuable.
Yu Xian mastered the Taiqing autopsy, and the speed of separating chemistry was much, much faster than that of conventional paleontological research institutes.
The main problem currently faced is... Less than twenty USB sticks are not enough.
