And the most incredible thing is that the egg is actually wrapped in a stone! No matter what kind of animal's egg it is, it cannot be inside a stone. There is only one possibility that this kind of egg should be a fossil or something.

But when we looked carefully, we found that it didn't look like a stone at all, but more like an egg. I just wanted to reach out and touch it, but Xiao Lei stopped me.

Hongmei also reminded me that you must not touch it with your hands before you figure out what it is, in case there are germs or the like on it. "

Xiao Lei found a branch from above, and then used the small branch to tentatively touch the egg. From the feeling of the branch touching, we were surprised to find that the egg was indeed not a stone, but a real egg.

.

"Should we crack this egg open and see what's inside?" Xiao Lei turned around and asked his cousin and Madman Liu. Neither of them spoke, but they were both thinking nervously.

Obviously, none of us, including my cousin and Crazy Six, knew what would happen after breaking this mysterious egg. At this time, Xiaolei picked up another stone from above. It seemed that he was going to destroy the egg.

Before smashing it open, he looked at his cousin and the madman with a questioning look. Seeing that they didn't stop him, he raised the stone and smashed the egg hard.

There was a popping sound, the eggshell was smashed, white and yellow liquid flowed all over the floor, it should be egg yolk and egg white, and between the egg yolk and egg white, there was an embryo!

The embryo was as big as the palm of your hand, and its appearance was very clear. At first glance, it looked like a monkey, because the shape and facial features of the head were like a monkey's head. I was most afraid of looking at various embryos. I thought they were very scary.

It was creepy, so after taking a brief look at it, I didn’t dare to take a closer look.

Could that be a monkey embryo? But how could a monkey have eggs?

"Could this be a 'Monkey Eagle' egg?" Xiao Lei's speculation aroused the resonance of all of us. Yes, this should be a "Monkey Eagle" egg.

"Look, although this embryo doesn't have feathers yet, part of its body structure is very much like the prototype of a wing," Xiao Lei continued.

Cousin, Madman Liu, Xiaolei and Hongmei were squatting there, observing carefully, but the rest of us did not have the courage to get so close.

What puzzles us is why this egg, which is suspected to be a "Monkey Eagle", is wrapped in a stone? This is one of the weirdest things we have ever encountered.

We looked at Crazy Six, because he knew this kind of stone best, but Crazy Six also shook his head in surprise at this time and said: "Although I know a little about this kind of stone-like crystal, how can there be eggs in it? I

But I’ve never heard of it.”

In addition, although Old Man Ouyang and Mr. Chen have both raised "Monkey Eagles", they have one thing in common. They both started raising "Monkey Eagles" after they grew into young birds. The completeness of the "Monkey Eagles"

Neither of them had experienced the pregnancy process.

At this moment, the female translator standing outside suddenly shouted: "Look, the red pangolin."

Everyone quickly turned around and saw that a pangolin appeared seven or eight meters away. However, this pangolin was very different from other pangolins. It was completely red. In addition, its snout was significantly shorter than ordinary pangolins.

Red pangolin? We have never seen it before. Everyone just stood there and stared blankly.

However, we saw too many monsters in this mountain. Although we were a little surprised when we first saw this red pangolin, we didn’t find it particularly strange. That kind of amphibious man, half-goat, half-animal monster.

, red foxes, and even "monkey eagles" look much weirder than this red pangolin. After seeing so many monsters, we are not surprised to see this red pangolin again.

But what happened next shocked us.

Generally speaking, most animals will be scared when they see people, especially when they see so many of us. But that pangolin was so strange. It actually crawled towards us without any fear. This was too

It went against common sense. We stood there, not knowing what to do for a while.

It wasn't until the red pangolin quickly crawled to our feet that we quickly got out of the way, but the pangolin ignored us at all. Instead, it crawled straight to the broken eggs, stretched out its long tongue, and started licking them.

After eating the egg white and egg yolk on the ground, it actually started to eat the embryo again, and finally, it even ate the egg shell.

Just like this, in just a few minutes, the pangolin had eaten everything on the ground, leaving no trace at all. After eating, the pangolin remained calm and crawled back in the original direction. Everyone

We also hurriedly followed it, and then we discovered that there was a small gap under a rock there, just big enough for the pangolin to crawl in. Under the watchful eyes of a few of us, the pangolin slowly crawled in.

In the cave, to it, it's as if we people don't exist.

"Does this red pangolin specialize in eating the carcasses of animals in the crater? Is this crater so neat and tidy? In addition to its unique airflow, is it also because of the cleaning done by this pangolin?"

After listening to Hongmei's speculation, my cousin nodded and said, "What you said makes sense. The reason why there are no dead animals or insects in this crater is probably because of this pangolin. Our previous

That conclusion that no animals died here is probably incorrect because the ground shaking here is very special."

While we were talking at the entrance of the cave where the horned beetle disappeared, Xiao Lei quickly returned to the same place and seemed to be observing something carefully on the ground.

"Oh, it's so strange and scary." Xiao Lei looked at the ground and couldn't help but said loudly. These inexplicable words made everyone's already frightened mood suddenly become tense. What happened?

?A few of us also quickly returned to where we were.

Xiao Lei pointed to the ground and said: "Look at the marks on the stone. These marks were licked by the pangolin." This sentence shocked us because the red stone here is harder than steel. Xiao Lei once said

After knocking it with an engineering shovel, the stone made a metallic sound. The kind of stone that a pangolin can lick with its tongue? How is this possible?

But when we looked carefully, we found that the tongue marks were very obvious. Before the pangolins came, there were absolutely no such marks.

"Although this is incredible, it is not completely unexplainable. There must be substances in the saliva of pangolins that can dissolve this red stone, so this situation occurs. The hardness and softness of objects should be transformed into each other.

For example, if a thick layer of frozen ice is hit hard, it will feel very hard, but if it encounters hot water, it will melt quickly." I don't know if Xiao Lei's explanation is correct, but I think it is very likely.

That's it.

The cousin also agreed with Xiao Lei's inference, but he looked deeper: "What Xiao Lei said makes sense. In fact, similar beasts were recorded in the county annals. The saliva of that beast can dissolve stones. The name is also similar to that of pangolin.

It's a bit like what's called a 'mountain beast'. No matter how hard the stone is, it will dissolve once it encounters the saliva of this 'mountain beast'.

I don’t know if you still remember the kind of prehistoric humans I’m talking about. Those kind of prehistoric humans were very good at building caves. They didn’t have explosives. If they had to dig hard, it would be almost impossible to build such a large-scale cave. Even with ancient

The 'cold excitation' method is to first burn the stone with fire and then use cold water to excite it, which is also very inefficient.

What did those prehistoric humans rely on to build caves? It is said that they relied on the "mountain-drilling beasts". They could breed thousands of "mountain-drilling beasts" on a large scale, and had special methods to collect "mountain-drilling beasts"

The saliva and urine of the beast, because the saliva and urine of the "Drilling Mountain Beast" contain substances that dissolve stones.

When digging a cave, they would pour the collected urine and saliva of the 'Mountain Beast' on the stones, and the stones would melt, just like ice meeting hot water, which is extremely efficient.

Moreover, this kind of urine and saliva are extremely permeable to stones.

The red 'pangolin' just now may have evolved from the prehistoric 'mountain beast'."

That's it. I didn't expect that there are such wonderful animals in nature. Their saliva and urine can actually decompose stones. We can explain many things, but only this kind of "laying eggs in stones"

We can't explain it at all.

That weird stone was cracked from the top, and the piece that could display the words happened to be the one that fell to the ground. Although we still can’t figure out why there are eggs in the stone, but there are

Regarding words, we can actually test it.

The stripped stone was not big, about seventy or eighty kilograms. Xiao Lei carried it out of the crater by himself. We wanted to get the stone outside the crater, and then pour it onto the stone and light it. Let’s see.

Does that type of font really exist?

In order to ensure safety and just in case, we specially moved the stone to a place far away from the Li crater.

Before pouring alcohol on it, we also deliberately distinguished the shape of the stone, found the part where the words were displayed, and then poured alcohol on it.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense again. I don't know why, but a fear suddenly arose in my heart. I was really afraid that after pouring alcohol on it and lighting it, the stone would explode. Aren't we going to be killed?

Because this stone was too weird, based on what Crazy Six heard about, we rashly lit a fire to try it, which was a bit risky. In fact, I was not the only one to have this worry. Xiao Lei, my cousin, and even Crazy Six also hesitated.

, I didn’t dare to light a fire rashly.

"Xiao Lei, you are a professional soldier and an expert in special operations. Check carefully to see if this stone is explosive. If it is explosive, we will have lit a bomb, and we will be looking for death.

.”

Xiao Lei nodded, he took out a Swiss Army Knife from his pocket, and then used the small file in it to rub some powder from the stone file and wrapped it in two packages with paper. Why did he do this? I'm really confused.

Not sure.

Xiao Lei wrapped the two packets of powder, then stood up and walked away. We didn't know what he was going to do, so we all followed him.

About twenty or thirty meters away from the stone, he stopped, then opened the two bags of stone powder and put it on the ground, then lit a train and threw it on one of the bags of stone powder. There was no reaction from the bag of stone powder.

Only then did we know Xiao Lei’s purpose for doing this. If the stone was an explosive substance, then the bag of stone dust would definitely burst into flames as soon as it encountered a lit match. Since it didn’t, it means that the stone was not explosive at all.

.

But what is the other bag of stone powder used for?

At this time, I saw Xiao Lei pouring alcohol on another bag of stone dust, and then, like before, he struck a match and threw it on it. Something unexpected happened. Suddenly, there was a burst of flame and thick smoke.
