Yue Guanchao observed the giant corpse in front of him, he just stared at everyone but didn't attack, most likely because he could only move in the pond, he settled down and said to the ghost Fang Zong: "We can try, didn't we take the gunpowder, throw it over and see if this thing's head can withstand explosions." ”

The Ghost Fang Sect understood that since they had all provoked this ontology, it would always be a problem if they didn't solve it, even if Yue Guanchao's method was risky, it would not be a bad strategy.

He figured out the risks they faced, and each hid in the forest by the pond, after which the Oni Fang Sect began to have the craftsmen prepare the bamboo gunpowder.

With his order, the bamboo tube was thrown into the giant with a burning breath!

These earthen gunpowder is not as powerful as Western Rao, and it is still possible to blow up mountains and open roads, and several violent explosions sounded in my ears.

The huge head made an extremely slimy popping sound, and there was no more movement.

Yue Guanchao and the others observed for a moment to make sure that the corpses in the pond had been blown apart, and then they came out from behind the huge ancient trees.

At this moment, everyone looked at the edge of the pond, because the gunpowder blew up the pond several meters high, the shore seemed to have a flood, and the ground was washed away, everywhere as if the skin was broken on the ground, revealing gray and black soil, all these turf were washed into the pond and floated on the water.

At the same time, there were more corpses, minced flesh, and broken bones on the shore, and judging from the remaining fragments, these were mostly the nose, ears, and skin of the corpse, and presumably, the huge corpse had been blown to pieces.

These scattered flesh skins, who don't know how long they have been dead, emitted a smell of dead rats mixed with rotten meat, which smoked people and kept retreating.

He picked up the dead wood he had picked up in the forest, examined the pieces of flesh, and roughly pieced together the broken skulls, and soon discovered something strange.

His eyes lit up and said: "In these skulls, there seems to be no brains, and there is a layer of mucus in the skulls, there is indeed something in this clear skull, the key is where did this thing go, didn't it kill this body?" ”

Everyone kept looking around, and Xu Xiake pointed to the edge of the pond and said: "It seems to have sunk into the pond, and there are traces of creeping here, probably flowing down from here." ”

Then they picked up the rope and began to look for traces of the body by the pond, and found this dying thing in a tidal flat near the hole in the tree.

Several people pulled this thing in front of Yue Guanchao with three hands and two feet, and everyone was able to see what this body was.

What was in front of them, the shell spiraled like a sharp cone, visible swirling lines covered the shell, the widest opening had a tight seam of the back plate buckle, and blisters erupted with breathing, if it had to look like something, it was probably a common snail in the paddy field.

It's just that this snail is obviously ten million times larger than ordinary snails, it looks like a huge water tank, and the outer shell is also almost translucent, and from the inside you can see the rotating snail constantly wriggling, with a large number of light-colored lines covering the shell, and near the end of the gambling lid, you can see the accumulation of tentacles, which have been completely sucked into the shell, and are like insects and snakes constantly shuttling inside.

Yue Guanchao picked up the wooden stick and poked the shell, the touch was close to the white film in the egg shell, which was very elastic and tough, not easy to break, and very soft.

"What the hell is this?"

This time, everyone is curious, at least not exactly snails.

"I guess, it was originally supposed to be a snail in the paddy field, after being alienated by the environment of Shennongjia, it became what it is now, the snail is a snail in the water, living in the coastal tidal flats all its life, and survives by preying on mayflies and insect eggs in the water, like this giant snail, it can't maintain its body by eating mayflies and insect eggs, so it can only catch larger prey, plus it alienates out of tentacles and captures animals to act as hunting organs, then it has to be completely passed."

"As for the giant corpse head."

Song Siyuan's words changed: "It should have been in this pond, but it was used as a nest by the snail, and the giant's brain was probably consumed by the snail, and at the same time, the snail regarded the huge head as a nest, and also parasitized the huge head as a hunting organ, which formed the strange situation we see." ”

Yue Guanchao nodded: "It's probably your situation, but where did this giant come from?" Shennongjia's Juran won't still exist now! ”

At this point in his words, everyone no longer knows how to describe this feeling!

Such a big head, if the body is at least forty or fifty meters high, if such a giant still exists in Shennongjia, it is a bit too terrifying, and the even more terrifying situation is that they have not encountered any giants until now.

If you think about it deeply, either all the giants have disappeared, or they probably haven't gone to the place where the giants are infested for the time being.

That is, if you go deeper, sooner or later you will have to meet these giants, a group of people who are not yet on the ankles of others, if they meet prehistoric giants, what are the chances of winning, and the worst is to add food to these giants.

Song Siyuan stared at the assembled giant skull, carefully observing the sections of the broken bones, after the sections of these broken bones were exposed, many of them had been completely calcified, or even become loose porous broken bones, either calcified or petrified.

Seeing this clearly, she explained: "These heads can only show that prehistoric giants once existed in Shennongjia, but they are estimated to be impossible to exist now. ”

"What's going on? Can you be sure? Xu Xiake asked, since Song Qianjin played the package ticket, she always had to come up with a reason to convince everyone, otherwise, it would be inevitable to fall into the heart of comforting them.

Song Siyuan's eyes turned to the skull: "I just took a look, the section of these skulls has a lot of fine pores, this bone feature is completely pathological, probably because of some osteoporosis, which makes the bones more and more brittle, which means that the giant has osteoporosis when he is alive, and the causes of this disease are mostly reduced physical activity, less sunshine time, and lack of calcium in the diet." ”

For this result, everyone was confused, and Xu Xiake was puzzled: "Song Qianjin, what does this giant make osteoporosis have to do with us, what we are discussing now is whether there are giants in Shennongjia or not." ”

Song Siyuan nodded at him: "Of course it matters, let me ask you, is a giant forty or fifty meters tall an invincible existence in Shennongjia?" ”

"Of course."

Xu Xiake still understands this, and his huge size is also destined for giants in the mountains and forests, both invincible and opponents.

Song Siyuan continued: "If such a person hunts, even tigers, wolves and lions are not its opponents, in this case, it will definitely not lack prey, let alone a state of famine due to lack of food and drink, then, I want to ask Dao Chang, if a giant has osteoporosis, what does it mean?" ”

These words were like a slap in the head, so Xu Xiake slapped his head suddenly, and his eyes lit up and said: "This giant has not been able to catch enough prey, if it is only for a short time, it is estimated that it will not develop to bone lesions, probably not able to catch prey for a long time, lack of food and drink, plus no light, lack of exercise, this makes the giant develop to the extent of weakness, so that the lesion penetrates deep into the bones, forming osteoporosis." ”

Song Siyuan nodded and looked at Xu Xiake: "Brother Xu is right, a giant like a giant, the bigger the body, the more energy it needs......"

At the same time, due to the huge size limitations, they want to manipulate the body, but also have to overcome greater force inertia, and even, even the oxygen needed to maintain the body is more than ordinary animals.

There are so many of them, it is basically certain that this is an ancient giant with slow movement, large food consumption, and large oxygen consumption, and such biological habits are destined to require them to consume more resources.

From time immemorial to the present, oxygen levels have been declining, and species have been becoming extinct, even with daylight hours decreasing.

These changes in the ecological environment have a profound impact on animals and plants: shortening the sunshine hours will weaken the photosynthesis of plants, the vegetation is destined to degrade, the oxygen will be reduced, and it will also make it difficult for large animals to breathe and become weaker, and the extinction of species will make animals and plants continue to decrease, and exacerbate the scarcity of prey.

All these factors are superimposed, and it's no wonder that the giants have disappeared!

Speaking of this, Song Siyuan sighed: "The chain reaction formed by the superposition of a variety of factors is the reduction of species, the degradation of forests, and the thinning of oxygen, and in the end, to the extent that the giants cannot hunt and survive, when all the giants in the group are unable to catch prey, it has sounded the death knell for the extinction of the race." ”

"After that, there will be hunters who will continue to die, and eventually lead to the extinction of the giant race."

At this point, the truth of the extinction of the giants has been clear, and Yue Guanchao asked: "Dare to love these giants are starving to death." ”

This vulgar and reckless man is not rough, Song Siyuan nodded and said: "This is indeed the case, if it is professional, it is the change of ecology that causes environmental upheaval, and the giants cannot adapt to the environment and have been extinct thousands of years ago. ”

She paused, and her face was very regretful: "Not only giants, but many large animals in nature are extinct in this way. ”

"In the past, mammoths, saber-toothed tigers, giant cats, giant mice, giant crocodiles, but all large animals were extinct because of the thin oxygen and could not absorb oxygen, and if they wanted to survive, they could only adapt to environmental changes and evolve their body shape, so as to take in less oxygen and slow down their metabolism."

Xu Xiake continued to ask: "If the giant race has long been extinct, then why does the head we see today still exist, it looks like it has just died. ”
