Chapter 848 Stacking Rocks

Stromatolites were formed between 20 billion and 6 million years ago, and usually consist of a dark layer and a light layer.

This is because algae living conditions and periodic changes in natural conditions form the original light and dark bedding of stromatolites.

Stacked rocks are where cyanobacteria have grown for generations. They cannot be blown away by the current, which means that the current where they are located is calm. If there is a wave, they must be blown away.

There are waves in the sea that will blow away the blue algae. If you want a place without waves, that is a lake.

From this we can know that the stack of rocks in front of Xiao Se is not in the sea, but in the lake. It is a very big lake that created this stack of rocks that can't be seen to the end.

Xiao Se looked at the layers of stones, like stacks of bowls, and was so excited that he couldn't help himself. If this was the case in modern times, it would be the discovery of a treasure.

If this can be brought to modern times for study, it will let mankind know what the Proterozoic Era was like two billion years ago.

What's more, there are really too many stacked rocks here.

Xiao Se looked back at the road she came on, her eyes gleaming. So, were they stepping on stacked rocks along the way?
Hahaha, that's really an honor.

No, you can't be proud. You are in ancient times now. No matter how much you think about it, these stones in front of you are just stones.

Xiao Se, who was so excited, slowly calmed down, and the enthusiasm in his eyes gradually disappeared, leaving only curiosity.

The tribesmen who went to get the oil came with Azang and dozens of others wearing protective clothing. Oil, muskets, and lime all came.

Twenty muskets were brought, two carts of lime were pushed, and twenty barrels of oil were filled.

Xiao Se said: "First use a musket to kill all the flying insects. Pay attention to the mice and don't let them escape. They are the most dangerous now."

"Yes!" the tribesmen responded.

Everyone stood guard at the intersection heading towards Cup Mountain. With a shudder, they lifted the muskets and fired at the flying insects.

The flying insects and mice, which were previously proud and arrogant and did not take Xiao Se and the others seriously, saw the fire dragon rushing towards them and ran away with a squeak.

Rats are the most abominable things. If they are infected with the plague, they will all be destroyed.

Think about the Black Death in Europe, which lasted for two years and killed nearly 5000 million people, directly reducing the total number of people in European countries by one-third.

Well, the Black Death was the plague.

Therefore, these rats must die!

The mouse was sprayed with fire dragons, but it still had the strength to escape and wander around. The waiting tribesmen shot it with arrows.

Ah Xiang and others, holding big black knives in their hands, widened their eyes with joy when they saw the tribesmen shooting rats, killing every one with accuracy.

No wonder the tribesmen practice archery in different ways every day. It turns out that arrows are not only used to kill long-haired pigs, but also to kill mice.

He will definitely practice archery seriously in the future. No matter what style of archery he uses, he will practice it seriously. Even if he is asked to shoot flying insects with arrows in the future, he will definitely let the flying insects die under his arrows.

The flying insects died as soon as they were burned, but the mice struggled tenaciously. Most of them died, but there were still a few that escaped under the stack of rocks.

Xiao Se did not let the tribesmen chase him, but said: "Burn the body first!"

In order to pour the oil on the corpse, Azang and others climbed onto the rocks and poured the oil from top to bottom.

Light the fire again, and with a bang, all the corpses are burned.

The blazing fire distorted the stacked rocks, making this area very bright.

Even if he wasn't standing close, the firelight was very hot, and it stung Xiao Se's face slightly.

She didn't move, looking at this scene calmly. Her eyes fell behind her again. There should be something there, right?

Xiao Se left four tribesmen here to watch. She took more than 40 people from Azang and Acha and moved forward in a straight line.As for that turning point, you can check it out when you come back.

Xiao Se walked all the way, admiring the stacked rock road. The excitement he felt before was gone after seeing too many stacked rocks.

At this time, the stacked rocks had converged into a rocky road. The stacked rocks on both sides were taller than the other. Walking in it, she felt like a little ant.

The road was very big, and after walking for at least an hour, Xiao Se finally reached the end of the pile of rocks.

After reaching the end, Xiao Se was stunned. She was really glad that she didn't go back halfway.

At the end of the stack of rocks, there is a green grassland.

There are piles of white bones on the grass. Just looking at their shapes, you can't tell what kind of beasts they are except that they are beasts.

Xiao Se was surprised by the bones in front of him: "Azang, have you been here before?"

"I've never been here before," Azang said. "The tribesmen say there are no wild animals here, so they won't let us come here."

Ah Cha was the first to say: "But these bones belong to wild beasts. If there are no wild beasts here, how can there be the skeleton of wild beasts?"

Azang shook his head: "You should also understand this, right? You didn't hear grandpa say it, you should also hear the clan leader say it?"

Ah Cha nodded helplessly: "That's true. The clan leader told me that there are no wild beasts here, so we really won't come here. As for the skeleton of this beast, I don't know."

Xiao Se looked at the other tribesmen, and they all shook their heads and said they didn't know.

Azang walked towards the skeleton and frowned: "This skeleton looks like that of a flesh-splitting beast, it's so big."

Other tribesmen also said that this was similar. After all, they had slaughtered a flesh-splitting beast more than twenty days ago.

Xiao Se heard what he said, looked at it carefully, and nodded: "It is indeed quite similar. I guess this is a flesh-splitting beast, right? Then what kind of beast skeleton is this?"

There were many skeletons of wild beasts beside them. She really didn't recognize any of them. At a glance, they were all skeletons of wild beasts, large and small.

Azang looked at the skeleton next to him, frowned and said uncertainly: "This seems to be a rhinoceros skeleton!"

When he didn't say it out loud, Xiao Se felt that it didn't look like anything. But when he said it, Xiao Se felt like it looked like nothing else: "It seems to be true."

Ah Cha looked at Xiao Se speechlessly, why don't you have any persistence of your own?

Hey, forget it, what is Arthur insisting on, just tell her what these are.

Xiao Se looked at the clean skeleton and the green grass and wondered: "So, the flood did not flow here?"

Ah Cha followed her around, looking at the clean grass here as if it had been washed by water, and nodded: "Yes, the flood has not come. If the flood came, there must be silt here."

"Then the terrain here is high?" Xiao Se looked towards the stacked rocks.

Looking over from where she stood, only half of what was originally a tall stack of rocks was exposed.

It’s really high ground!

Xiao Se looked at the skeleton and suddenly realized: "Because the terrain here is high, when the beast feels that it is dead, it will run here to wait for death. After death, its skeleton will not be washed away by the flood!"

These beasts are so smart that they choose their own gravesite before they die.

But it's really a bit like an elephant. When it predicts its death, it will find the elephant's graveyard and then wait quietly for death.

However, no matter what happens now, no one will give Xiao Se the answer, so he can only imagine it himself.
