The next day, Lu Yuan learned his lesson, and before dawn he set off to the Big Buddha Scenic Area.

This time it was much smoother, but in half an hour he escaped into the Buddha.

Lu Yuan searched for a whole day in the passage inside the Big Buddha, but still found nothing.

After searching for three days in a row, he walked through all the passages in the Buddha, except for a few ancient tools, there was nothing of other value.

"Is there really no treasure in the Buddha!"

Lu Yuan couldn't help but doubt his original judgment.

Disappointed, he prepared to leave the Big Buddha.

I was depressed, so I made a mistake when judging the direction.

He had wanted to go west, but he didn't pay attention to the east.

When he came back to his senses that day and was about to turn back, his consciousness stumbled upon a hidden passage.

Intrigued, he entered the passageway.

It had been a long time since anyone had entered the passage, so he judged the direction and walked outside first.

At last, he found that although no one had been to the passage for a long time, the entrance to the cave was still intact, only obscured by clumps of weeds and thorns.

Walking to the entrance of the cave, Lu Yuan did not go out, but turned back again, he wanted to see if there were any secrets in this cave.

The passage widened as he walked inside, and when he went about 1,000 meters deep into the passage, his eyes suddenly opened up.

A huge cave appeared in front of him.

Lu Yuan looked around in surprise, and after some observation, he found that this cave was actually natural.

Lu Yuan was immediately interested in this cave in advance.

This part of Jiazhou is not the same as the karst landform of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, and there are few caves in the entire Jiazhou area.

A natural cave as large as the one in front of you is even more unheard of.

Because the cave is hundreds of meters underground, there is basically no light to get into.

In order to see more clearly, he took out the searchlight device he had brought with him.

As soon as he turned on the searchlight, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.

In front of him there was an underground river, and at the end of the river there was a huge turtle.

This turtle was completely more than he wanted, it was just too big.

"Galapagos tortoise!" this was Lu Yuan's first reaction.

This turtle was so big that Lu Yuan visually inspected it, and its body was at least four meters long.

The other turtles looked exactly like little ants in front of it.

However, Lu Yuan quickly denied his initial judgment, because the Galapagos tortoise was far less big than the tortoise in front of him.

However, Lu Yuan was not sure, and he hurriedly looked up the information of the tortoise.

The Galapagos tortoise is the largest of all tortoises, with a high carapace, large symmetrical scales on the top of the head, a short skull, the squamous bones do not meet the parietal bone, the frontal bone does not enter the orbit, and the postorbital bone degenerates or almost disappears; The posterior part of the square bone is usually closed, completely surrounding the stapes; The maxillary bone is almost connected to the yoke bone, and the masticatory surface of the upper jaw has or does not have a central ridge.

The body length is generally 1.2 meters, and the maximum length can be 1.8 meters. Adult tortoise males are larger than females, weighing about 272-320 kg for adult males and 136-180 kg for females. Life expectancy is estimated to be up to 200 years.

The head is large and the neck is long. The Galapagos tortoise also has a large, heavy, bony brown-dorsal carapace.

Although the tortoise is large, it cannot be compared with the tortoise in front of him.

What's more, the living habits of elephant tortoises are not adapted to such an environment at all.

In order not to alarm it, Lu Yuan chose to observe it from a distance.

At this time, he was surprised to find that the head of this turtle was completely different from the other turtles he had ever seen.

Its head is covered with patches of scales that look very strong.

The most surprising thing is that he actually has horns on his head, if it weren't for its huge turtle shell, Lu Yuan would have wondered if he was seeing a dragon.

When Lu Yuan was carefully observing the turtle, another thing happened that shocked him.

A baby fish happened to swim through the dark river at this time, and this turtle actually bit the baby fish with lightning speed, and then ate the baby fish.

When this turtle was hunting, its tail was also exposed, and in Lu Yuan's opinion, it was not the turtle's tail at all, but the dragon's.

Its tail is also covered with scales, and it has a sharp jain on it.

Lu Yuan saw with his own eyes that its Qi easily cut through the nearby stones.

"Dragon Turtle!" At this time, the name of a legendary divine beast appeared in Lu Tian's mind.

The turtle in front of him is very similar to the legendary dragon turtle in terms of appearance and size.

In the legend, the dragon turtle is the son of the ancient dragon, carrying the book of Hetuluo, revealing the number of heaven and earth, the one Taiji, the upper astronomy, the lower knowledge of geography, and the neutralization of the human world.

To put it simply, the dragon turtle is the embodiment of the dragon god and the spirit turtle in the eyes of the world.

Yang Shen of the Ming Dynasty "Sheng'an Outer Collection" has a cloud: "Legend has it that the dragon gave birth to nine sons, and the dragon does not become a dragon, each has its own advantages: one is called a dragon, the shape is like a turtle, it is good to bear the weight, and the turtle under the stone tablet is also ......" because the head of the "stumb" is a dragon, and the body is a turtle, so the folk also call it "dragon turtle".

Modern historians and biologists do not believe in the real existence of dragon tortoises.

According to Morgan's totem theory, they believe that the dragon tortoise is a marriage totem formed by two tribes in ancient China who believed in turtles and snakes respectively because of their marriage.

Because the appearance of the dragon snake is relatively close, the snake head image of the dragon turtle is gradually replaced by the dragon head image, and finally the image of the dragon turtle is formed.

Originally, because of the education he received since he was a child, like most people, he also thought that the dragon turtle was just a marriage totem.

But the scene in front of it completely changed its view.

At this time, he couldn't help but think that if one day the parrot and the tiger became extinct, future generations would see the record: there are birds in the East, colorful colors, and human language.

There is a giant beast at the foot of the mountain, which resembles a cat, and the firstborn king character, and its body is as big as an ox, and it is the king of all beasts.

Will the people who saw it in later generations say, "Nonsense, where can there be any birds that can speak human words, how can there be cats that are bigger than people with long words on their heads?"

From this, it is inferred that in ancient myths and books, especially the various alien beasts recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, are they all real and existent, but they are now extinct.

The more Lu Yuan thought about it, the more excited he became, if he could find out all these legendary beasts one by one.

What will be the consequences of that, and will it completely change the worldview of mankind?

Will the long-standing controversy over biological evolution be completely overturned?

When Lu Yuan was thinking about his thoughts, the "Dragon Turtle" suddenly screamed in a low voice.

Lu Yuan also came back to his senses at this time, and turned out all his various camera equipment in one go.

In the following days, Lu Yuan no longer had the heart to think about the treasures of the Great Buddha, and single-mindedly tracked and photographed the life of the "Dragon Turtle".

Seven days later, after basically figuring out the living habits and rules of the "dragon turtle". He tried to get close to the tortoise and have some simple communication with it.

In the process of communication, Lu Yuan was surprised to find that the dragon turtle actually had a lot of wisdom.

In just a few days, it could basically understand what Lu Yuan wanted to express.

Lu Yuan stayed for a whole month before leaving the cave.

After returning to the residence, he found that Professor Sun and the others had left half a month ago, and when he left, he asked Zheng Hong to leave a message for himself.

After sleeping beautifully in the room, Lu Yuan turned out the image he took of the "Dragon Turtle".

After some weighing, Lu Yuan published the image of the dragon turtle on the Internet.

After the video of the dragon turtle was released, the impact spread like a seismic wave.

It was first spread on the domestic network, and was soon spread to the Internet by netizens.

In just one day, people all over the world knew the news of the dragon tortoise.

When the news first came out, many people didn't believe it, especially some bricks and beasts bluntly said that the video was fake.

But soon Lu Yuan released more video materials.

Just as netizens were arguing on the Internet about the authenticity of the "Dragon Turtle", local netizens in Jiazhou actually found the entrance to the cave from the video materials released by Lu Yuan.

When this netizen saw the "dragon turtle" with his own eyes, he immediately posted the news and the photos he took on the Internet.

Soon the entire Jiazhou area was a sensation.

People are scrambling to catch a glimpse of the dragon tortoise.

Soon it was discovered that the cave of the dragon turtle was surrounded by a sea of people.

This made the doubts on the Internet disappear in smoke.

At the same time, it was as if a 12-magnitude earthquake had struck the entire biological community.

First, a group of top biologists in China packed up their belongings and hurried to Jiazhou.

Subsequently, other biologists in China also applied to come to Jiazhou.

Then more and more biologists began to apply.

Before the application of some biologists was approved, they had already taken various means of transportation and carried various research instruments to Jiazhou.

These biologists are either highly respected or have deep research in the field of biology. There are even several winners of dynamite awards.

All of a sudden, Jiazhou, which was originally only a fifth-tier city in China, actually gathered the world's top biologists.

The influx of many people has even caused a certain increase in local prices.

All the hotels and restaurants are full every day, and the local residents have also taken the opportunity to make a small profit.

The small city of "Jiazhou" has also become popular all over the world because of the name of "Dragon Turtle".

Incidentally, the local tourism industry has also begun to explode.

The discussion of the "dragon tortoise" on the Internet is even more enduring, and some netizens even proposed that since the dragon tortoise is real, the so-called "marriage totem" in the past is naturally not valid.

Further down, "dragons" should also be real, and all of a sudden, netizens were adrenaline rushing, and they were constantly discussing "dragon turtles" and "dragons" day and night......
