I was blown away by the longing for the live broadcast of the sea

Chapter 548 Paleontologists are collectively shocked, what did the anchor dig up?

Swish! ! !
After Lin Yang found the target, he didn't hesitate too much.

At this moment, he is still carefully trying to dig out the huge skull fossil.

Although the audience in the live broadcast room didn't know what was going on, they were already not calm.

"Damn it! What did you find, anchor? It looks amazing!"

"With such a large skull, the question is, how big is this bone? What kind of creature can have such a large head?"

"Could it be dinosaurs, but then again, there shouldn't be dinosaurs on isolated islands in the Indian Ocean."

"It's not certain. After all, the land plate is constantly moving and changing. Who knows if this North Sentinel Island was directly connected to the continental shelf before."

"Stop talking nonsense, how could it be a dinosaur? Believe in science, okay?"

the other side.

Yue'er, who was stationed on the yacht, was watching the live broadcast sent back by Lin Yang, and at the same time paying close attention to the mailbox on the yacht for receiving emails.

However, before Lin Yang completely made the huge ancient fossil public, it seemed that no archaeological research institute or paleontology research institution expressed its opinion on it.

After all, the information available to the outside world is very limited at present. Apart from knowing that the body of this bone fossil may be a giant, there is hardly much valuable information.

In the absence of more reference information, it is impossible for an organization based on scientific rigor to express opinions casually.

It would be bad if it misled the general public.

"Brother Yang, how long has this thing been buried in the ground, and the degree of fossils should be able to determine the time of its death."

Yue'er muttered softly.

After all, Jurassic dinosaur fossils can use modern archaeological methods to judge the approximate timeline of their extinction.

Lin Yang replied very calmly: "You ask me this question, who should I ask? Dig out first and then talk about it."

Although with the help of system capabilities, Lin Yang could already tell that this creature with a huge skull died 2000 years ago.

But now he can't directly give a convincing and authoritative answer, after all, he is not a researcher specializing in paleontology.

Taking a step back, even a professional research institution, a highly respected academician-level leader, cannot give the specific age of a certain bone fossil by visual inspection without the help of modern instruments. Even so, Lin Yang still Added: "According to previous discoveries in the remains of the ancestors of the indigenous tribes of Beisen Island, those murals recorded things that happened 2000 years ago, and the ancient fossils of this giant beast may be relics of the same age in the interior of the remains."

His guess is based on the logic that birds of a feather flock together, rather than giving some terminology that the audience doesn't understand from a professional point of view.

Viewers have different opinions on this.

"I think the anchor's guess should be inaccurate. Judging from the climate and marine environment, there is not much difference between the ecology of the earth 2000 years ago and today. Is it really possible for such a huge creature to survive on the earth?"

"You can't say that in front of the old man, the whale is not small, isn't it still alive and well?"

"What are you sand sculptures doing? Just guess No.1. Before there is no professional survey, any result is possible."

"The anchor has to be careful, don't crush that big skull."

"Now, the news media and the marketing account have something to do, and the anchor is simply a little expert in doing things."

"."

While Lin Yang was excavating the ancient fossils of giant beasts, the aboriginals of the Negrito tribe who had been looking for Lin Yang before were watching blankly.

They looked at each other, completely unable to understand what Lin Yang, a foreigner, was digging in the soil.

Although the bones are big, they cannot eat or drink. For the aborigines of Beisen Island, they are of no value at all.

Because their thinking is very simple, it is very incomprehensible for Lin Yang to waste energy on this useless thing.

On the other hand, although he couldn't understand what Lin Yang was going to do, digging two shovels of soil on the island did not cause any loss to the local aborigines.

The Nigrito natives who didn't know the situation neither offered to help nor persuade Zu Linyang to dig the land.

In the tropical rainforest of North Sendinal Island under the night, Lin Yang spent about ten minutes cleaning the surface of the three-meter-long skull.

At present, his attention has increased a lot because of this important discovery!

At this moment, Yue'er's voice came from the communication device.

"Brother Yang, the Institute of Marine Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences just sent an email about this animal bone fossil."

The audience was very curious, what kind of opinion would the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the most authoritative institution in the Dragon Kingdom, have on this terrifying ancient fossil discovered by Lin Yang?

At this moment, Lin Yang carefully cleaned up the soil around the animal bone fossil.

On the other side, Yaya, a baby clouded leopard that has just eaten and drank enough, is sleeping soundly on the grass beside it. Just like human babies, newborn clouded leopards also need a relatively long period of sleep.

Sea eagle Dabai is like a guardian, staying beside Xiaoyunbao Yaya.

In this way, Lin Yang can concentrate on the ancient fossils buried in the ground. With Dabai's protection, he doesn't need to be distracted to take care of the little clouded leopard at all.

Hearing Yueer's news from the communication device, Lin Yang asked casually, "What does the Institute of Marine Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences say? Say hello to Mr. Chen for me."

During this period of time, Mr. Chen has new scientific research projects to follow up, and he has no extra energy to contact Lin Yang.

Apparently, Lin Yang's new discovery on North Sendinal Island, while being closely followed by the global media, also attracted the attention of the old academician.

Yueer then forwarded the content of the email from the Institute of Marine Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences to Lin Yang. The specific content was very brief, but her views were not simple.

[Although it is impossible to accurately determine the age of the giant animal bone fossils from the currently available image information, if Comrade Lin Yang’s speculation that the bone fossils were buried 2000 years ago is valid, my research is based on factors such as the earth’s climate and marine environment. Judging that the body of the giant animal bone fossil is extremely unlikely to be a terrestrial animal, and it is likely to be a marine organism. The specific conclusion needs to wait for the ancient fossil to be fully unearthed. 】

Ordinary audiences may not understand the meaning of this content, but a small number of water lovers think so.

After all, what they can see now is that the giant beast is indeed in the shape of a fish, but the specific details cannot be checked.

From this point alone, the preliminary guess of the Institute of Marine Biology of the Academy of Chemical Sciences is somewhat reliable.

In the live broadcast room, tens of millions of sand sculpture netizens began to discuss frantically.

"Is there any older brother who can explain to the scumbags what the Chinese Academy of Sciences' opinion means? What does it mean to judge based on the earth's climate and marine environmental factors?"

"In the final analysis, we still suffer from lack of culture. This kind of thing is not clear in one or two sentences, but it roughly means that in the timeline of thousands of years, the oxygen content of the land, temperature changes and other factors are It is impossible to produce huge creatures. However, giant whales are an example. Under certain circumstances, as long as the organism's organ functions meet the conditions, it is possible to find huge creatures in the ocean."

"I don't know how serious it is, I can only deduct 666!!!"

In fact, as some water friends in the live broadcast room said.

In the earth's terrestrial environment in the modern era, apart from temperature, the most important thing is the index of oxygen content, and it is almost impossible for giant organisms to be born.

In the past eras of Blue Planet Earth, whether it was the era of giant insects in the Carboniferous period or the era of dinosaurs in the Jurassic period, the super high oxygen content in the air was a major factor in the prerequisites for the birth of giant creatures!

Compared with the wild speculations of sand sculpture netizens, Yueer's attitude is relatively simple.

She said to Lin Yang: "I want to find out the specific reason. Now that the technology is so advanced, it's ok to hand it over to an authoritative organization for identification. Such a simple thing has to be complicated for you."

Lin Yang nodded slightly, seeming to agree with her point of view.

the other side.

While Lin Yang was excavating the giant animal bone fossils, the natives who had been on the sidelines gradually joined in to help, perhaps out of curiosity.

Because of this, the efficiency of Lin Yang's excavation work has increased a lot.

In the face of unknown things, human curiosity tends to multiply, and the media's publicity makes more curious people pay attention to Lin Yang's live broadcast room.

With Lin Yang and the aborigines of Beisen Island digging, while the popularity of the live broadcast room has increased, the barrage has also increased a lot.

"Actually, when the anchor was presented with the giant teeth of sea beasts by the Bayao people in the Sulawesi Sea, I had a question, how do archaeologists identify the specific age of ancient fossils?"

"This question is too professional. Although there are many people in the anchor live broadcast room, it is estimated that no one can answer you."

"No way? No one really thinks that this kind of question can be answered in the live broadcast room, right?"

"Under normal circumstances, fossils are composed of organic matter. When any organism is alive, the ratio of the isotope carbon 14 to carbon 12 in the body is usually a custom constant. After the organism dies, the content of carbon 14 will gradually decrease, but at the same time the carbon The content of 12 elements remains unchanged, and carbon 14 is a radioactive isotope with a half-life of about 5320 years, and is not affected by all external conditions. Therefore, the professional identification of fossil ages generally measures the ratio of these two carbon sources, and such as hundreds of millions of years The bone fossils can even measure the ratio between 238 and 235. Although the method is the same as measuring the carbon 14 isotope, the half-life of 238 is 45 billion years. The answer is completed, and it is shameful."

"Damn it! Brother 666 in front, please accept the scumbag's knee!"

"Get a little knowledge every day! (Great knowledge has increased)"

Although Lin Yang didn't have the energy to pay attention to the barrage messages in the live broadcast room at this time.

But Yue'er, who was stationed on the yacht, would occasionally take a look at the discussions of the water friends.

Even after following Lin Yang, she studied hard and memorized many aspects of knowledge, but she didn't know much about the extremely unpopular knowledge of ancient fossil identification.

This also made Yue'er have to sigh, "Sure enough, there are talents in the barrage"!
