When Wang Xiaoshan first came over, there was no one there. He stood there for a while, and more and more people were watching.
Almost all the staff who dig fossils in barren mountains know that Wang Xiaoshan is doing live broadcasts and will briefly interact with the audience every morning.
In a situation like today, it is very unusual for Wang Xiaoshan to stand next to an excavated pit.
Many staff members gathered around out of curiosity, everyone wanted to see what attracted Wang Xiaoshan there.
After more than ten minutes, the fossil was finally cleaned up. Wang Xiaoshan took the camera to let the audience take a look at the skin fossil.
"Now it looks like skin."
Although it has been buried underground for many years, the appearance of the skin can still be seen.
[It’s really amazing. It’s the first time I’ve observed skin fossils at such a close range. Lao Wang’s real cowhide makes me fall in admiration.]
[After cleaning it, you can tell at a glance that this is a fossil, not a stone. Lao Wang, please have your eyes opened. You can see it accurately at a glance, you are a god!]
[Is this the skin of a land dinosaur or an aquatic dinosaur? Can Lao Wang tell us what kind of dinosaur skin this is?]
[A piece has been found. Lao Wang will have people dig nearby to see if there are any other skin fossils. This is a major discovery! 】
[Watching Lao Wang’s live broadcast is more exciting than going to a dinosaur museum to see dinosaur fossils. Many museums don’t have this skin fossil alone.]
After seeing the cleaned fossil, the audience was completely convinced. They admired Wang Xiaoshan from the bottom of their hearts. If it weren't for Wang Xiaoshan, this fossil might have been thrown away as a stone.
The skin fossils excavated today are very rare. Not to mention the audience, none of the current staff have seen them.
There were a bunch of staff gathered around, 99% of whom just thought it was a stone.
Who would have thought that after cleaning it, it would turn out to be a fossil. Many staff and viewers would not believe it if they had not seen it with their own eyes.
Everyone was very happy to see such a rare fossil in the morning.
"I can no longer tell what kind of dinosaur fossil this is. There are too many missing parts!"
There are too many missing parts of this fossil. If you want to know what kind of dinosaur it is, you can only take it back and study it with instruments.
There are no other fossils around this skin fossil, so we don’t know how this fossil was preserved.
After speaking, Wang Xiaoshan let the audience watch for a few more minutes, and then he went about his business.
As soon as Wang Xiaoshan walked away from the surrounding staff, he squatted down and started looking at the fossil.
The onlookers included both the staff and the old experts who came to Barren Mountain today. These old experts did not expect to encounter such rare fossils just after arriving at Barren Mountain.
It was the first time for these old experts to see this kind of skin fossil. They felt that it was really worthwhile to come from the barren mountain. Before the study of the turtle shell fossil excavated yesterday was completed, new fossils were excavated.
Several old experts studied it for a while but couldn't come up with any results. The main reason is that this kind of fossil is too rare.
The veteran experts wanted to talk to Wang Xiaoshan and learn more about the fossils from Wang Xiaoshan.
However, Wang Xiaoshan was busy digging holes at this time and had no time to talk about fossils with these old experts. Moreover, he was not familiar with these new experts, so he could talk when he wanted to have free time.
Wang Xiaoshan just showed the fossils to the audience, which has already wasted a lot of time. His main task now is to dig out the fossils from the pit.
The work in the morning was very busy. The staff looked at it for a while and then went about their own business. The old experts did not know much about skin fossils, so the fossils were later moved back to the camp.
Fossils that are particularly large and cannot be moved can be placed in a pit. Such small and light fossils are usually moved back to the camp for safekeeping.
After listening to Wang Xiaoshan's introduction, Li Miaomiao did not rush to see the fossils, but ran to the camp to wait. She knew that the number of fossils dug out in the morning was limited.
Everyone would take such a small fossil back to the camp after looking at it for a while. Li Miaomiao only had to wait at the camp and she could take her time to look at it.
After the fossils were brought back, Li Miaomiao and Cao Bingbing began to study the fossils.
Cao Bingbing: "Lao Wang is so amazing, he can spot such small details."
Li Miaomiao: "Well, when I went to see it with him just now, I thought it was a stone. Who would have thought it was a fossil?"
Cao Bingbing: "Don't tell me, if you don't look carefully after cleaning it, it can easily be regarded as a stone."
Neither of them understands each other very well, and what they say to each other is basically just chatting.
After reading it, Li Miaomiao and Cao Bingbing went to the Internet to check relevant information. Wang Xiaoshan was digging fossils in the mountains, and they had no way to consult Wang Xiaoshan, so they had to rely on themselves.
The two of them checked for a while and then gave up.
Cao Bingbing: "There is really little information on the Internet. It seems that I will have to ask Lao Wang for help soon."
Cao Bingbing searched for information on the Internet for a long time, but there was too little useful information on the Internet, and the content was not enough to support the content of the manuscript.
Cao Bingbing could only ask Wang Xiaoshan for help and ask Wang Xiaoshan to tell her about the skin fossil. She knew that Wang Xiaoshan had reservations during the live broadcast just now.
The live broadcast time is limited and Wang Xiaoshan cannot explain the fossils in too much detail. In that case, he will not have to do anything at the end of the day and just explain.
Li Miaomiao: "Well, I originally wanted to write the manuscript earlier, but now I have no chance."
Li Miaomiao and Cao Bingbing had made an appointment when they had dinner last night, so they had to write the manuscript early every day and go out to find delicious food in the evening.
Fortunately, there is too little content about skin fossils on the Internet. The two girls had to stop and wait for Wang Xiaoshan to have time to finish talking to them before they could continue writing the manuscript.
At this time, Wang Xiaoshan was digging a hole in the barren mountain. He was digging too fast just now, and now some idle staff came to see him digging the hole again.
Now the staff at Huangshan come to watch Wang Xiaoshan dig holes whenever they have time. This has almost become a habit for everyone. They come over to take a look whenever they have nothing to do.
Today, not only the staff came to the pit to see Wang Xiaoshan, but also experts came to take a look from time to time. Fortunately, these people just came to see and did not disturb him from digging the pit.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The digging continued until noon, but Wang Xiaoshan still did not dig out the fossils under the pit. The fossils were buried too deep now, and it was too difficult to dig them out in the morning.
"Dear viewers, the fossils were not dug out in the morning, so those who want to see the fossils will have to wait until the afternoon."
[No problem, we believe in Lao Wang’s strength. Digging out a dinosaur in one day is like playing for fun. He was able to dig such a deep pit after taking so long in the morning. Lao Wang is so fierce! 】
[I am satisfied if Lao Wang can see two fossils in one day. Don’t let me see too much. I’m afraid I won’t be able to find the time to go to work!]
[Lao Wang heard that you just dug out skin fossils. Where is it? Let me take a look. I feel like I missed 100 million because I went online late today. 】
[The skin fossil dug out by Lao Wang is so awesome, you guys are really at a loss if you didn’t see it today!]
[Before lunch, Lao Wang will let us take a look at the skin fossil in the morning. After watching it, we will go to eat. Lao Wang must see this barrage of mine!]
Every time Wang Xiaoshan digs out fossils, the office workers watching his live broadcast have to stop what they are doing to watch his live broadcast. It is okay to stop twice a day.
If Wang Xiaoshan unearths too many fossils in one day, the audience of office workers will cry, and they will not be able to go to work peacefully.
Some viewers also gave Wang Xiaoshan free publicity in the live broadcast room. They told subsequent viewers about the fossils Wang Xiaoshan dug up early in the morning.
The audience who came late today were immediately excited when they heard about the skin fossil. They also wanted to see this magical fossil.
Wang Xiaoshan had been digging a hole just now, and the audience could not interact with him. Now that he has stopped, the audience has posted comments wanting to see the fossil that morning.
Some viewers were afraid that Wang Xiaoshan would not be able to see the barrage, so they frantically posted the barrage in the live broadcast room.
"I've seen the comments everyone posted. Since everyone wants to see it, I'll take you to see the fossil this morning."
After saying that, Wang Xiaoshan took the camera and went down the mountain. The staff had already finished viewing it in the morning, and now no one is looking at the fossils in the camp.
Wang Xiaoshan took the camera and let the audience look at it carefully. While watching, he also briefly explained it to the audience. The audience would not understand it without explaining it.
After watching the movie for the audience, Wang Xiaoshan hurriedly went to eat. He wanted to finish eating in time for the large troops to return from the mountains, and then go to the car to rest.
If Wang Xiaoshan eats late, he will be surrounded again and asked questions about fossils.
When Wang Xiaoshan returned to the car after the meal, Li Miaomiao and Cao Bingbing were already sitting in the back seat waiting for him with notebooks and voice recorders.
Wang Xiaoshan: "You two don't have to be in such a hurry. You have to listen to the story just after eating."
When they were eating just now, Li Miaomiao and Cao Bingbing told him that they would tell him about fossils, but he didn't expect the two girls to be so anxious and wanted to listen after eating.
Cao Bingbing: "It's not good for your health to sleep directly after eating. Please tell us first. We can write the manuscript while you sleep."
Wang Xiaoshan: "I should take a photo of you at work and send it to your boss. You two love your work so much."
After that, Wang Xiaoshan started to tell the two people about skin fossils. The two girls listened very seriously. They would ask questions if they didn't understand.
Wang Xiaoshan spent twenty minutes explaining the content of skin fossils to two people, which was enough for two people to write a manuscript.
After speaking, Wang Xiaoshan went to bed.
The two girls started writing the manuscript in a hurry. If they wanted to eat delicious food, they had to work overtime at noon.
By the time Wang Xiaoshan got off the car and returned to Barren Mountain in the afternoon, everyone else had already gone to work in the mountains.
Captain Shi walked over with a smile and said: "Old Wang, fortunately you walked fast at noon, if you walked slowly you would have been surrounded."
After lunch today, several old experts came to see Wang Xiaoshan at the camp. They wanted Wang Xiaoshan to talk to them about skin fossils at noon.
These old experts are so energetic that they don't sleep at all at noon, and they can chat with each other.
Wang Xiaoshan couldn't help but talk like this. Talking about banknotes for noon would be fine, but talking about fossils for noon would make his brain hurt.
Wang Xiaoshan was also afraid that the experts would chat with him, so he ran to the car early at noon to rest. The campground was some distance away from the parking place, and the experts did not notice him.
Wang Xiaoshan said a few words to Captain Shi and then went directly to the mountain. When he arrived at the place where he dug in the morning, he started digging directly without giving the experts a chance to chat.
In the afternoon, Wang Xiaoshan still dug very fast. Fossils were rarely found within five or six meters anyway, so he could dig faster while there were no fossils.
Fossils were also dug up in other pits in the afternoon. Now there are too many workers digging fossils in the barren mountains, and several fossils can be unearthed almost every afternoon.
Now, Wang Xiaoshan is not like before. Whenever he finds something, he immediately shows it to the audience. He usually digs for about two hours and then goes to the barren mountains to ask if any fossils have been unearthed.
If a team unearths fossils, Wang Xiaoshan will let the audience take a look. Of course, if he encounters more distinctive fossils, Wang Xiaoshan will talk about them. If he sees very common fossils, he will sweep them away.
In the afternoon, a group dug out a relatively distinctive fossil. Wang Xiaoshan specially took the camera to the camp to let the audience take a look.
"Dear viewers, you should know this fossil!"
[I have trypophobia, and my scalp feels numb when I see such a bunch of bug-like things.]
[What Lao Wang showed us should be trilobites. If I remember correctly, trilobites are the most easily identifiable fossils in the world. 】
[It is indeed a trilobite, but there are a lot of trilobites on this stone. They are so densely packed that it is really eye-catching to see.]
[There are at least dozens of trilobites on this rock. Why are these trilobites all crowded together? Have they encountered a natural enemy? 】
[The fossils that Lao Wang showed us today are really interesting. They were skins in the morning and a bunch of trilobites in the afternoon. This number has almost caught up with the small fish from last time.]
The fossil Wang Xiaoshan showed the audience this time was a trilobite. The trilobite found this time was on a relatively flat stone. There were a lot of trilobites on the stone.
There are so many trilobites stacked on top of each other that I can't even count how many there are on the stone slab. Anyway, the number is extraordinary.
There are a lot of them, but they are so densely packed that many viewers feel a little numb after watching them. There are so many people crowded together that they don’t look comfortable.
The main reason is that trilobites are like little bugs wearing armor. Many people don't like bugs in the first place. When there are more of them, they become even more unpleasant to look at.
"What I want to show you this time is the fossil of a trilobite."
"Trilobites may seem weak, but they have escaped mass extinctions several times. The tiny trilobites are extremely tenacious. They are definitely the weakest creatures in ancient times."
Many viewers have seen trilobites, but don’t know much about them. Wang Xiaoshan briefly introduced them to the audience.
After listening, the audience realized that trilobites are so powerful and have survived for hundreds of millions of years in ancient times. Many ancient animals cannot compare to this.
Ancient creatures are very powerful, but very few can survive several mass extinctions. Many people did not expect that small trilobites could survive.
After Wang Xiaoshan told the audience, he asked the audience to take a closer look at the trilobite. This time he did not let everyone look at the entire fossil slab, but only one corner.
