Han Peacock said with a smile: "Aren't you curious that fossils from 400 million years ago can be preserved to this day? You must know that sharks have been very successful for more than 400 million years and are at the top of the predators in the earth's oceans.
It's like comparing a Ford Model T to a modern car. They are clearly the same thing, but under the bonnet, they are completely different. We find the 'Model T' among the sharks.
[
For example, many people believe that the arched cartilage on this shark fossil is very different from the arched cartilage in modern sharks, indicating that although the shark's appearance has basically maintained its original appearance, it has undergone important changes over time.
, these changes help them become perfect predatory machines in the ocean."
Han Rongxia rolled his eyes and said: "These are all academic things. Who among ordinary people is willing to study this? I don't think anyone is interested in this, right?"
Han Peacock said with a smile: "Whether ordinary people dare to be interested in it or not, these are fossils left over hundreds of millions of years ago, and they are particularly treasured treasures."
"What else? Just now you mentioned some special fossils. What are those special fossils?" Liuxu asked.
Han Peacock hesitated for a moment and said, "It's nothing. You will know when the time comes."
Seeing Han Kongque's behavior, Liu Xu said suspiciously: "You won't send people to snatch other people's things, will you?"
Han Peacock's smile immediately froze on his face, and Liu Xu's guess was almost confirmed, so she tentatively asked: "Giant gorilla?"
"Giant gorilla?" Han Rongxia asked strangely.
Of course, Han Rongxia was not the only one who was surprised at this time. Everyone else looked at Han Peacock with strange eyes, because Han Peacock's appearance clearly told everyone that Liu Xu's guess was true.
"Did you really steal other people's things?" Liu Huiyu said in disbelief.
Han Peacock said sarcastically: "Don't use the unpleasant word robbing. I bought one through some means."
"A fossilized skeleton of a gorilla? However, gorillas are found in many places, right? There's no need to use any means to rob them, right?" Qin Mingyue said.
Liu Xu and Zhou Meiren looked at each other. They were more aware of Han Kongque's sinister methods than Qin Mingyue, so they were even more worried.
As Han Peacock's strength expanded, they were afraid that Han Peacock would lose himself and become unscrupulous.
In that case, a tragedy is likely to occur, so Liuxu specially reminded Han Kongque not to lose the bottom line of being a human being when his family was all around.
Han Kongque said: "You are right. Gorillas are everywhere. Do I need to rob others?"
Liuxu said: "Something that Mr. Han Peacock can take a fancy to is definitely not ordinary. A few days ago, I heard that giant ancient orangutan fossils were found in Indonesia. They can reach 3 meters in height."
"Three meters?" Everyone in the venue was surprised when they heard what Liu Xu said.
Liu Xu said: "The giant chimpanzee in the Hollywood movie "King Kong" appeared in Indonesia in ancient times. The Indonesian archaeological team discovered ancient giant chimpanzee fossils in Central Java. It is speculated that this giant ape is 3 meters tall, which is the first in Indonesia.
Extinct ancient great ape discovered."
"Is there really such a big orangutan? It can't be a lie, right?" Chen Qing spoke up to support Han Kongque.
Liu Xu said: "There must be news about this on the Internet now, just check it out and you'll find out."
Zhou Meiren also said: "Korean Peacock will not do useless work."
Han Kongque said: "I bought it from their official website. Even if someone breaks the law, it is someone from their country who breaks the law. I did not steal or rob."
"You have tempted others to commit a crime." Liu Xu rolled her eyes at Han Peacock and said.
At this time, Chen Xiaozhu and Han Rongxia, who were holding mobile phones, both screamed in surprise. Chen Rui said: "What's wrong? Is there really any news about this?"
Chen Xiaozhu said: "Sister-in-law, you see, according to reports, Siswanto, director of the Indonesian Archaeological Center in Yogyakarta, said that local residents of Zhigasimando, Central Java, recently discovered the jaw fossil of a giant orangutan.
At first, people thought they were human fossils, but when researchers analyzed the size of the two large molars, the archaeological center concluded that the fossils were not human, but belonged to some kind of giant ape.
These molars are 2 centimeters wide, and the lower jaw of the fossil is 10 centimeters long. According to morphometric results, these fossils belong to the extinct Gigantopithecus brucelli. Paleontologists speculate that the adult Gigantopithecus brucei is more than 3 meters tall and weighs as much as
550 kilograms, and they became extinct 100,000 years ago."
Han Rongxia also found relevant news at this time, so she rushed to say: "Look, their international archaeological team called the discovered giant ape fossil 'Java King Kong' and stored it in the museum in Solo City. Brother, don't you think so?"
You probably bought it from here, right?"
Everyone looked at Han Peacock, who innocently said: "How do I know where to buy it? I just expressed my interest in this giant orangutan skeleton, and people in their country started to help us, and finally through them
The people over there contacted the buyer and bought a fossilized skeleton of a giant orangutan."
"You're talking about a body, not teeth, jaws or other bone fossils?" Liu Xu quickly understood the meaning of Han Peacock's words.
Han Peacock looked at Liu Xu with resentment: "What will happen to my daughter in the future? Her mother is so smart, so don't let her inherit this intelligence. You know, it's not easy for smart girls to get married."
Liu Xu rolled her eyes at Han Kongque and said, "I'm so smart, wouldn't I get married too?"
"That's because I'm smart enough. What if our daughter can't find a man as smart as me?" Han Kongque said.
Zhou Meiren said: "Don't change the subject. Javanese King Kong is a great discovery. This is the first time that this giant ape has been discovered in Indonesia. This Javanese King Kong inhabited Java Island about 200,000 years ago, and later became extinct due to climate change.
Therefore, not only does Java have fossils of this kind of giant ape in Indonesia, there should also be fossils of giant apes in Sumatra and Kalimantan. I wonder if anyone wants to continue to pay attention to this aspect."
Han Peacock said with a smile: "Am I too idle? So you don't have to worry. I am very satisfied that I can get a complete Javanese diamond fossil. Other aspects are time-consuming and laborious. I will not waste time in this aspect.
If I have this time, I might as well send people to dig up giant skeleton fossils!"
"Giant bone fossils? Brother, you won't tell me that your museum also has giant bone fossils, right?" Han Ronghua said in a rare voice.
"How is this impossible? Big brother should have it." Zhou Zhiqian responded to Han Ronghua.
Han Rongxia hesitated for a moment and said: "Aren't giants a legendary human race? They don't exist in reality, right?"
"Yes, this is too fantasy. If there are giants, then there are also dwarves? Are there also elves?" Chen Xiaozhu said.
This time it was Liuxu's turn to hesitate. Seeing her look, Han Rongxia shouted: "Sister-in-law, you won't tell me that there really are elves, right?"
LiuXu no longer hesitated and said, "I don't know if there are elves, but dwarves and giants do exist."
"Ah!" Everyone exclaimed in surprise.
Han Peacock said at this time: "It is indeed like this. Dwarves are generally found in the mountainous areas of North and South America, while giants can be found over Asan."
"Really? So, brother's giant skeleton fossil was obtained from Asan?" Han Rongxia said.
In ancient Greek mythology, there are legends about the Titans. The so-called Titans refer to the giant gods who served Cronus, the god of time. Later, Cronus betrayed the gods of Olympus, and the Titans
People were also thrown into hell by the gods of Olympus.
Because they were afraid of the wrath of the Almighty God Zeus, they soon hid in the outskirts of the world far away from human habitation. In addition, it was also recorded in the "History of the Persian Wars" written by Herodotus in 400 BC.
A complete human skeleton measuring about 2.5 meters in length was discovered.
It can be said that legends about giants not only appear in Greek mythology, but also many peoples around the world have created legends about giants.
In the famous Greek epic "The Odyssey", the story of the Greek hero Odysseus encountering the Cyclops on the island is also written.
In addition, there are many stories about Jack's Pea and the Giant in Grimm's Fairy Tales, all the way to "The Kingdom of Grownups" in Gulliver's Travels, describing lives like giants.
However, with the research of modern anthropology, these legends gradually faded away from the mythical color associated with giants until the 18th century.
But there are still news about giant ruins being discovered all over the world, which makes people rethink, are "legends" just legends?
In the first half of 2005, the famous Russian archaeologist Ernst Muldashev led an archaeological team to conduct an inspection in West Asia and North Africa, and found the legendary tomb of the ancient giant in Syria.
According to the Russian "Pravda" report, Murdashev led an archaeological team to discover two giant tombs in a village on the outskirts of Aleppo, Syria, at the beginning of this year. One of the tombs was at the foot of a mountain, and there were also scattered objects nearby.
There are fragments of tombstones, and when put together they are almost 1.8 meters high.
The other one is on the top of a mountain 20 kilometers away. According to measurements, the tomb below should be rectangular, about 10 meters long. According to locals, this is the tomb of an ancient giant 7.5 meters high. A long time ago, this giant
He came to Syria from Yemen and was eventually killed.
Regrettably, both tombs have been damaged to varying degrees. Among them, the tomb on the top of the mountain was "visited" by tomb robbers two years ago, and the damage was very serious.
Based on the records about giants in legends from various countries, there was indeed such a group of people on the earth. They left traces in Eastern Europe, Northern Europe, Central Asia, East Asia, North Africa and the entire Americas, proving that their activities ranged widely.
