Professor Zhao settled down, looked carefully at the towering giant trees, and said, "Look at the shape, but the red cedar trees don't emit light. If you really want to explain it, it should be a mutated red cedar tree... "

Professor Zhao also seemed to be a little uncertain and said: "Sequoia trees are rare in China. Only in Yunnan may there be a small number of redwood trees, which are rare species. However, the number of them in the California region of the United States is small. Many, I didn't expect that there would be redwood trees growing in this tiankeng, which is really strange."

After hearing this, Ning Xiaofan smiled noncommittally. If you want to say that there are few strange things encountered in this tiankeng, what's so strange about the redwood trees growing here?

Professor Zhao sighed: "This is an ancient species. It can be said to be a living fossil in the plant world. There can be such an ancient species as redwood trees here. I am a little bit convinced that there will really be more ancient dinosaurs living here?"

Ning Xiaofan's heart skipped a beat: "Professor Zhao, do you mean that there are probably dinosaurs here?"

"It's hard to say for the time being, but look at this forest, besides the redwood tree, what do you see growing there? Ferns, those are not ordinary ferns, but ancient ferns that flourished in the Carboniferous period. This ancient fern has long been extinct, and before that, there were absolutely no living species found outside the tiankeng, and even if it was found, it was only a fossil."

Professor Zhao said with a look of disbelief, then pointed to a few plants beside the fern and said, "And look at those trees, you should know them, right?

Ning Xiaofan looked in the direction of his fingers. The trunks of those plants were straight and cylindrical, and the branches at the top were evenly spread out. When it is dry, it looks like a peacock spreading its tail, a bit like a coconut tree, but it is much more pleasing to the eye than a coconut tree.

Looking at the shapes of those plants, Ning Xiaofan is no stranger, but he was a little unsure when he heard Professor Zhao's deliberate question, "That's... a spinosa tree, right?"

Professor Zhao smiled and said, "You're right, it's the spinosa tree, which is also an ancient species. It hasn't disappeared so far and is distributed all over the world, but those few spinosa trees belong to a species that has been extinct for a long time. Fish scale spinosa."

"Fish-scale spinosa philodendron?"

Professor Zhao nodded and said: "Yes, do you see that the lines on the trunk look like fish scales? That's why the spinosa spinosa got its name. This kind of spinosa spinosa was once one of the most prosperous species on the earth in the Mesozoic period. Later, affected by changes in climate and geographical environment, especially during the Quaternary Ice Age, Cynthias spinosa died in large numbers and eventually became extinct. Hehe, it’s amazing that this tiankeng survived…”

When Ning Xiaofan heard this, he was still a little confused. He had no concept or understanding of these so-called ancient species, but he was quite interested in the few words that came out of Professor Zhao's mouth from time to time.

1 million years?Mesozoic?Ice Age?

Hearing the name of this ancient and unfamiliar era, and then thinking of the era that Fatty once said, wouldn't it match the era of the spirit stone that he wanted to find?

In other words, in this weird and magical tiankeng, ancient species that have been extinct outside can be found, so, can we discover the magical spirit stone that existed hundreds of millions of years ago?

Thinking about it, Ning Xiaofan couldn't help but glance at the fat man.Coincidentally, the fat man seemed to have listened to Professor Zhao's words, and was thinking about it there. When the fat man noticed Ning Xiaofan's glance, the two of them met, and there was a hint of excitement in their eyes... .

Cuckoo...cuckoo...da da da da...

Suddenly, there was a strange cry from the flourishing fern.

Everyone could hear it clearly, and they couldn't help being startled. God knows what monsters will appear in the depths of this weird sinkhole?

goooo...

As the call sounded again, the fern moved a little bit, and a pointed head emerged from the curly stems and leaves.The exposed head is very small, only about an inch long, with eyes like mung beans, and a slender mouth, which looks a bit like a miniature version of the head of a crocodile.

That extremely pocket-sized little head poked its head out, and with a flick, it rushed out from the fern bushes. The speed was so fast that everyone's eyes dazzled, and the strange-looking little thing had landed firmly on the ground.

what monster is this?

When everyone saw the whole picture of the little thing, they couldn't help being slightly stunned.

The skin of this little monster is green, smooth and hairless. It looks a bit like a lizard at first glance, but it is quite different from a lizard.Its head resembles the head of a miniature crocodile, with narrow jaws and a thin neck. It has a slender body with extremely slender front paws, but its lower limbs are obviously a size larger, able to support the body upright. There is also a tail that is longer than the body behind it.

"Damn it! I've seen this thing!" The fat man suddenly yelled.

Fatty's cry made the weird little creature jump, but he didn't run away, but retreated a few steps vigilantly, Mung Dou's small eyes stared at Fatty tightly, and he let out a "cuckoo" from his throat. With a sound, a row of sharp fine teeth faintly revealed in the pointed jaw.

This little thing is not afraid of people, it seems to be quite aggressive, Ning Xiaofan saw it, and his heart tightened slightly: "Fatty, where did you see it?"

When Ning Xiaofan first saw this weird creature, he was sure that he had never seen it before, but he felt very familiar.

"In the movie, Jurassic Park, I saw it in the Jurassic Park movie!" The fat man quickly replied, but there was a trace of fear in his eyes.

Jurassic Park?A flash in Ning Xiaofan's mind immediately reminded him that he had seen that movie too, no wonder the weird little creature looked familiar to him.

"That's right, I've seen that movie too, this thing looks exactly like the little dinosaur in the movie!"

With Hou San's voice echoing, maybe the movie "Jurassic Park" was too famous, and everyone present looked stunned.

"Compsognathus, this is Compsognathus...it's incredible..." At this moment, Professor Zhao murmured, his eyes fixed on the weird little creature.

"Professor Zhao, what do you think this is? Compsognathus? What is Compsognathus? It can't really be the kind of little dinosaur that appeared in the movie, right?" The word "dragon" in the word "dragon" reminded him of the little dinosaurs that appeared in Jurassic Park. For a while, he couldn't believe it was real.

Professor Zhao tremblingly said: "Not only have I watched the movie you mentioned, but I have also seen a complete Echinosaurus fossil. If I am not dazzled, this little thing is really a Compsognathus..."

At this time, the fat man interjected: "Old man Zhao, no matter what you said is true or not, I want to ask, is this thing a meat eater or a vegetarian? You must know that the little dinosaurs in the movie are not only the number There are many, and they will eat people!"

As soon as the fat man said this, the faces of everyone present were startled. Li Wanting, who had been standing beside Ning Xiaofan, seemed to be also shocked. She couldn't help leaning towards Ning Xiaofan, and quietly grabbed his waist The corner of the clothes, it seems that this is the only way to feel safe.

Professor Zhao shook his head and said, "It's not true what was shown in the movie. Compsognathus usually feeds on insects. You have also seen it. With such a small body, it will not cause any harm to humans."

After hearing what Professor Zhao said, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Cuckoo... da da da da!

Suddenly, the little monster in front of him poked its head and made strange noises again.

Only then did everyone see clearly that the "cuckoo" sound came from the little monster's throat, and the "da da" sound was when the two sides of the little monster's cheeks agitated, forming two bubbles, like the vibrating sound of the bubbles.

And at this moment, following the strange cry of the little monster, the fern echoed "cuckoo da da" from it. Listening to the sound, there are still few little monsters hidden in the fern bushes!

Immediately afterwards, everyone saw small pointed heads protruding from the ferns!

There were a lot of people, and everyone's complexion changed slightly. Although Professor Zhao said that this little thing does not seem to be harmful to humans, they still involuntarily took a step back.

woohoo-

One, two, three... One after another green shadows flashed, one after another the little monsters rushed out, and in the blink of an eye, dozens of little monsters rushed out.

Cuckoo cuckoo... da da da da!

Accompanied by bursts of weird screams, these little monsters seemed not afraid of people at all, bouncing around in front of everyone, poking their heads, looking curious, but the hidden sharp teeth of the little monsters, and the eyes exposed by the small mung bean eyes Everyone saw the gloomy and cold look, and felt a chill and numbness on their backs.

Not only that, little monsters kept flying out of the fern bushes, and in a short while, almost a hundred of them rushed out.These hundreds of little monsters gathered together, at a glance, they were densely packed, bouncing around in front of everyone, with a light and agile figure, and several of them hopped cautiously to the feet of everyone, a bit like test.

"I said, old man Zhao, are you really sure that these little things only eat insects?" Fatty's voice trembled a little.

"It should be like this..." Professor Zhao has been observing these little monsters, but his tone is not sure.

Seeing that Professor Zhao's tone was not sure, the fat man smirked slightly: "What should you mean? Don't get me wrong. This is not a joke."

Professor Zhao blushed, and hurriedly explained: "It's not wrong, this is the conclusion drawn by foreign biological experts, and it has a scientific basis!"

Scientific basis?Is there any scientific basis for this ghost place?The fat man's small eyes flickered a few times, feeling that it would be better to stay as far away from these little monsters as possible, so he quietly took a few steps back.

Ning Xiaofan also felt that something was wrong with these little monsters at this moment, and saw the fat man retreating quietly, and immediately pulled Li Wanting as if without showing any signs of expression, and slowly moved back.

The so-called stupid bird flies first, Ning Xiaofan knows that running is not his strong point, and he has learned it well. No matter what, he can't go wrong in keeping with the fat man.
