After telling the audience, Wang Xiaoshan took the engineering shovel and started digging the hole. This morning had already wasted a lot of time, and he was not prepared to interact with the audience during the digging process.
Captain Shi has told everyone who is visiting and studying in the barren mountain that they can go see Wang Xiaoshan dig fossils, but don't gather a lot of people around. If you want to see it, just go with two or three people.
The onlookers this time were mainly the new group of people who arrived today. Yesterday, Director Ma's group of people were busy digging for fossils that were not dug out yesterday.
As long as there is work on hand, not many people will come to watch Wang Xiaoshan.
Captain Shi also asked Wang Xiaoshan if they needed a place to dig fossils for this new group of people, but the other party had no such intention, so Captain Shi gave up.
The leader of this new wave of people felt that they were here to learn, not to be free laborers. Excavation of fossils had nothing to do with their city, and they were unwilling to do anything for free.
Since I don't want to, no one will force me, as long as these people don't disturb the normal excavation work of the barren mountain staff.
Li Miaomiao arrived at the barren mountain and wandered to other pits. She was Wang Xiaoshan's scout.
There were too many people in the barren mountain today. Wang Xiaoshan could not take the audience around, so it was left to Li Miaomiao to see the progress of other pit excavations.
Li Miaomiao walked around from pit to pit. In one pit, all the fossils were almost excavated and she was currently cleaning them up.
This pit is also the pit with the largest number of onlookers. Almost 90% of the people in the barren mountain are surrounding this pit.
Except for this pit where the fossils are about to be excavated, there is not even a shadow of a dinosaur in the other pits.
After walking around, Li Miaomiao went to report to Wang Xiaoshan. At this time, Wang Xiaoshan was frantically digging a hole. She couldn't get close, so she had to wait. Anyway, the dinosaur in the hole hadn't been dug out yet.
After more than ten minutes, Wang Xiaoshan stopped and asked, "What's going on with the other pits?"
Li Miaomiao: "Only one pit is about to dig out a dinosaur. It's still early for the other pits. Do you want to go and have a look first?"
Li Miaomiao pointed out to Wang Xiaoshan the pit where the dinosaur was about to be dug.
Wang Xiaoshan waved his hand and said: "Forget it, there are so many people, let others see it later. I will go when there are less people."
After listening to what Li Miaomiao said, Wang Xiaoshan already guessed that the fossil was about to be unearthed from that pit. He knew that the dinosaur below seemed to be quite big.
There must be a lot of people watching when a dinosaur is dug up. Wang Xiaoshan doesn't like to join in the fun. If others like to see it, just let others see it.
Wang Xiaoshan will go over after a while when there are fewer people around, and the fossils cannot escape. Looking at it one minute earlier or one minute later will have the same effect.
He got tired of looking at the fossils after a while. Wang Xiaoshan didn’t believe that anyone would look at them next to the pit for a whole day.
Wang Xiaoshan: "I will continue digging. You can go to other holes for a walk."
When Wang Xiaoshan first started digging, there was no one around him. Some people who wanted to watch him dig the hole were unable to get close and could only watch from a distance.
Experienced workers all know that there is no need to watch Wang Xiaoshan dig holes in the morning. If you want to watch it in the afternoon, there is nothing to see in the morning.
At this time, Li Miaomiao, like others, was standing next to the pit where the dinosaur was dug out. Only the head of the dinosaur had not been cleaned out, and the other parts had been cleaned up.
"This one should be a velociraptor. You see, it has a pair of small claws and two powerful feet. These are the characteristics of a velociraptor."
"Brother, you know so much, you know all this."
...
A group of people chatted non-stop next to the pit. Li Miaomiao watched for a long time. Although she didn't know the name of the dinosaur, it was definitely not Velociraptor.
Wang Xiaoshan had dug up Velociraptor before, and Li Miaomiao had seen the fossil of Velociraptor, so he was sure that the dinosaur in the pit should be called something else.
Li Miaomiao didn't care about other people's discussions. She was here to report on dinosaurs, not to argue with others.
After a while, after all the dinosaurs were dug out, several experts from the barren mountains went to look at the fossils in the pit.
There are so many people in the barren mountain now that Captain Shi no longer allows non-staff people to go to the pit to see the fossils. A bunch of people going down in a chaotic manner can easily cause damage to the fossils.
The only people who can go to the pit now are Wang Xiaoshan and a few experts who are still in the barren mountains. Others who want to see can only stand on the edge of the pit and watch.
Several experts watched the pit for a long time, discussed it for a while, and then went about their work.
This dinosaur is not common. This is the first time for these experts to see it. The experts are not sure what kind of dinosaur they have dug up this time.
The experts are waiting to hear what Wang Xiaoshan has to say when he comes to live broadcast later.
In the past, experts would be more worried if they encountered unknown dinosaurs. Since getting to know Wang Xiaoshan, experts are no longer afraid of digging up unknown dinosaurs.
Whenever you meet someone you don't know, go to Wang Xiaoshan. Wang Xiaoshan can tell these experts the names and living habits of dinosaurs every time.
In the eyes of experts, Wang Xiaoshan is omniscient. As long as it is something he asks people to dig out, he must know the origin of the treasure.
Half an hour later, there were fewer and fewer onlookers, and all the onlookers went to look at other pits. At this time, Li Miaomiao ran back and called Wang Xiaoshan.
Li Miaomiao also wanted to know the name of the dinosaur in the pit this time: "There are fewer people now, let's go see that dinosaur."
Wang Xiaoshan: "What kind of dinosaur was dug up this time? Do you know it?"
Li Miaomiao: "I don't know him at all, but he looks a bit like a velociraptor. At first glance, he looks like a dinosaur running on two legs."
There were quite a lot of dinosaurs that ran on two legs, and Wang Xiaoshan couldn't tell what kind of dinosaur they were from the information Li Miaomiao said.
There are similar dinosaurs in every period. It is difficult to name the dinosaurs without seeing the fossils. This is when the dinosaur fossils are complete.
If the fossil is incomplete, even if you see the fossil, you still have to take it back and study it before you can draw a conclusion.
Wang Xiaoshan walked to the pit and took a look. The dinosaur dug out this time was quite big. It was more than five meters long from head to tail and nearly three meters tall.
Wang Xiaoshan first took the camera to let the audience see the dinosaur fossils at the bottom of the pit. Standing on the edge of the pit, you can see the complete appearance of the dinosaur, but when you go down into the pit, you can only see part of it.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Dear viewers, this is a dinosaur fossil that has just been unearthed."
[What kind of dinosaur is Lao Wang? At first glance, I thought it was a velociraptor, but when I looked closely, it didn’t look like a velociraptor.]
[The head of this dinosaur is not as big as the Velociraptor, and the forelimbs are not as big as the Velociraptor. This is not a Velociraptor, it just looks like a Velociraptor.]
[When I first saw this dinosaur, I thought it was an ostrich. Add feathers to this dinosaur's body and remove its tail. It's definitely an ostrich.]
[The head is too small, like a bird. If I hadn’t seen a long tail behind it, I would have thought it was a flying bird.]
[I don’t know if it’s a bird or not, but the legs on the hind limbs are really long, really long legs. Maybe this dinosaur is called a long-legged dinosaur.]
Many viewers thought this dinosaur was a Velociraptor when they first saw it, but upon closer inspection, there are big differences between this dinosaur and a Velociraptor.
Of course, viewers who have seen Velociraptor fossils can see the difference, but if they have not seen Velociraptor fossils, there is no guarantee that they will be able to tell the difference.
Some viewers had already told others in the live broadcast room the difference between this dinosaur and the Velociraptor. Wang Xiaoshan read a few comments posted by viewers about the differences, and most of them were correct.
It seems that the viewers in the live broadcast room have carefully watched Wang Xiaoshan's live broadcast a few days ago. If they didn't watch it carefully, they wouldn't be able to tell the difference.
Some viewers also found that the dinosaur this time looked a bit like an ostrich, not to mention that the dinosaur in the pit looked very similar to an ostrich.
With a long neck, a small head, and a pair of strong hind limbs, it’s really hard to see how large an ostrich looks.
Another feature of this dinosaur is that its hind limbs are extremely long. A pair of long legs would make it run very fast. This is what the audience just saw after watching it.
While the audience was discussing in the live broadcast room, Wang Xiaoshan had already taken the camera to the pit, and he was going to let the audience take a look at the dinosaur at the bottom of the pit.
Just now when Wang Xiaoshan was live broadcasting next to the pit, many people suddenly gathered around him. To avoid too many onlookers, he hurried to the pit.
When we arrived at the bottom of the pit, Wang Xiaoshan took the camera and let the audience take a closer look at the appearance of this dinosaur, especially its head and limbs, which are very distinctive parts.
"This dinosaur is called Gallimimus. It looks like a bird, but of course it is not a bird and it cannot fly."
"Gallimimus has no feathers or wings. Among the dinosaur family, Gallimimus is considered a good runner. It ran very fast."
"The fast running of Gallimimus is due to its body structure. Gallimimus is tall and light. Its forelimbs are very slender, and its hind legs are long and thin. It can cover a long distance in one step."
[It was originally called Gallimimus, but it should actually be called Ornithomimus. Its head not only looks like a chicken's head, it also looks very similar to a bird's head. 】
[It turns out to be a fighter jet among dinosaurs. It looks like it can run as fast as an ostrich. Maybe even an ostrich can outrun it.】
[Generally, bipedal dinosaurs have shorter forelimbs and more developed hind limbs. This kind of dinosaur usually runs very fast, and other dinosaurs cannot catch up.]
[The Laowang-like Gallosaurus probably eats plants. It might be a bit difficult to eat meat with such a small head. It feels like it can only eat grass.]
[The dinosaurs that Lao Wang showed us were all weird species. I have never heard the name of this dinosaur today.]
The reason why it is called Gallimimus is that its head is somewhat similar to that of a chicken, with a long neck and a toothless mouth.
Although it may seem that Gallimimus has a small head, it can run very fast. According to experts, it is estimated that the speed of Gallimimus is 50-60 kilometers per hour, making it one of the fastest dinosaurs known to run.
In ancient times, most bipedal dinosaurs ran faster than four-legged dinosaurs. In real life, there are many animals that can run fast on four legs, but this is not the case with dinosaurs.
Dinosaurs are relatively large, usually weighing over a hundred kilograms. If they weigh more, they can't run as fast as those on two legs.
Like Velociraptor and Gallimimus, they are all good runners. They run so fast that it is very difficult to catch up.
Today, the audience has learned a lot about this dinosaur. Many viewers have never even heard of this kind of dinosaur, let alone seen it.
It was a real eye-opener for the audience today, as they saw such a magical dinosaur for the first time.
"The forelimbs of Gallimimus are very short, and each front claw has three toes. Although the melon seeds are very sharp, they can't tear the flesh or grab things very well."
"At most, its small claws can only help Gallimimus hunt some small lizards or dig out the eggs of some animals for food."
"Mostly, Gallimimus fed on plants and insects."
[Gallimimus has a long leg but can only eat plants. If a carnivorous dragon were put on the legs of Gallimimus, it would be like taking off. 】
[Gallimimus is more suitable for domestication. If you can tame a Gallimimus, it could walk sideways in the era of dinosaurs. It would not be afraid of anyone and could run in all kinds of ways. 】
[How many plants do these plant-eating dinosaurs need to eat in a day to meet their daily consumption? Gallimimus is quite big, and it feels like it was on the road to eat every day besides eating. 】
[Judging from the skeleton, Gallimimus should have weighed hundreds of kilograms. Lao Wang will tell us how much it weighed. 】
[Lao Wang asked us to take a closer look at the little claws of this dinosaur. Its little claws are so interesting, I really want to touch them!]
The audience began to think divergently again. Last time the audience wanted to raise a Velociraptor, and this time they wanted to raise a Gallimimus.
However, dinosaurs like Gallimimus are herbivores and are not very harmful to humans. They are also relatively docile among dinosaurs.
Although Gallimimus is very big, its tiny claws are so small that everyone who sees it wants to touch it.
The big body and the small claws look a bit incongruous. This is a bit like Tyrannosaurus Rex. Tyrannosaurus Rex also has a pair of small claws that are disproportionate to the body.
Now the claws have become fossils, and there is no feeling when touching them. Touching the claws is no different from touching other bones.
"The weight of an adult Gallimimus is about 400 kilograms. Although it looks slim, in fact it is not light at all."
The audience thought that Gallimimus only weighed one or two hundred kilograms, but they did not expect that it actually weighed 400 kilograms. It was incredible that it could run so fast at such a heavy weight.
If Gallimimus weighed about the same as an ostrich, it would have been able to run on the highway without reaching hundreds of kilometers per hour.
When Wang Xiaoshan was talking under the pit, more and more people were watching on the edge of the pit. Many people heard him say that this dinosaur was called Gallimimus and not Velociraptor.
Some people who don’t believe in evil went to the Internet to check it out. It’s really hard to know if they didn’t check it out. It would be a shame to check it out. Just now they swore they were Velociraptors, but now they realize they were wrong.
To be able to work in a cultural relics unit requires some ability. These people are usually very arrogant, and some of them are not convinced by Wang Xiaoshan.
People who have seen Wang Xiaoshan dig out treasures or explain them a few times will become much more low-key in the future. Wang Xiaoshan teaches them how to behave with practical actions.
When Wang Xiaoshan was talking just now, not only the staff but also several experts were watching. Several experts listened to his explanation while looking at the fossils in the pit.
Experts have higher knowledge than others. Wang Xiaoshan said a few simple words, and the experts have already analyzed that what Wang Xiaoshan said is very correct.
