From a food chain perspective, Shen Cong is indeed at the same level as a big monster like the Four-legged Snake.
If it were not for the efforts of pre-apocalyptic civilization, human beings would have been reduced to the status of prey.
So after seeing Shen Cong and the Four-legged Snake, who seemed to be preparing to communicate, Xiaobei had the idea that "this is a communication between higher organisms." At least for now, humans have not returned to the top of the food chain.
In the military jeep, the four people were silent, waiting for Shen Cong's results.
Shen Cong got off the car and walked to the food. The process was very smooth. However, at this time, he started to stop, looked directly into the eyes of the four-legged snake, and slowly reached out to grab the animal carcass with mucus. .
The four-legged snake continued to tilt its head and made a slight gurgling sound from its neck.
Shen Cong didn't understand the meaning of this voice.
He was just executing his own judgment and dragging the animal carcass towards the King Kong. The process was still going smoothly. The four-legged snake watched Shen Cong dragging away the food. Not only did he not stop him, but on the contrary, he showed a very happy mood and looked up. The head barked twice, and you could hear the joy in his voice.
When Shen Cong endured his nausea and dragged the animal carcass to the front of Donkey Kong's car, the four-legged snake screamed happily, turned around suddenly, and crawled towards the desolate slope in the distance.
After climbing a few steps, he turned his head and called out to Shen Cong twice.
As if urging.
Shen Cong raised his eyebrows and looked back at Donkey Kong and the military jeep behind him. He hesitated a little, but finally made up his mind, stepped on the bouncing stilts, and walked in the direction of the four-legged snake.
He has his own decision.
In a flash of inspiration, he came to a very funny conclusion: the food of the four-legged snake is not courting or showing weakness, but seeking a deal.
If the four-legged snake is regarded as a lizard, this judgment is ridiculous. Humans actually trade with inferior reptiles, which is nonsense. However, from an evolutionary perspective, it is difficult to judge the four-legged snake as "a lizard". It can be seen from its smart eyes that it has a high IQ.
Therefore, a powerful golden beast with a good IQ came with food and did not take the initiative to attack.
This really feels like a transaction.
Shen Cong himself believes in the principle of fair trade, so he can better understand the meaning of this four-legged snake. It encountered trouble that it couldn't solve, and happened to meet Donkey Kong. Donkey Kong gave it the feeling of being very powerful. After all, it was super powerful. The three talents have entered the lv1 era.
So the four-legged snake came up with the idea of trading, and it spit out the food as a bargaining chip to seek cooperation.
The communication gap between species makes the transaction not very smooth.
It took a lot of twists and turns for Shen Cong to realize it and understand its meaning.
So he decided to test it out. He dragged the food over to show that he accepted the deal. If the four-legged snake violently attacked, it meant that Shen Cong had misunderstood; now the four-legged snake did not violently attack, but began to call him to follow, which was obviously a deal. The meaning of success.
The equipment has already been brought, and you can escape at any time if you encounter danger; Zhao Zilong and others cannot destroy the King Kong that has entered the lv1 era; it is rare to have normal communication with a powerful golden beast, and Shen Cong does not want to miss this opportunity.
He really wanted to know what the problem was that made the four-legged snake come to him for cooperation.
So a huge four-legged snake dozens of meters long ran in front, and an iron armor only two meters high bounced behind and followed, heading towards the Jishan Forest Farm in front.
Two silhouettes with severely different proportions were left behind, reflected in the eyes of the four Zhao Zilongs in the military Jeep.
"Um, Zilong, are you blind? I think I saw Colonel Chen leaving with the four-legged snake?" Old Wei scratched his cheek and looked stunned.
Dahui nodded: "Yes, do Four-legged Snake know Colonel Chen?"
Xiaobei continued to sigh: "Sure enough, only advanced creatures can understand each other."
Under Zhao Zilong's silver mask, a pair of eyes flashed with doubts, and he said uncertainly: "Maybe Colonel Chen and the Four-legged Snake have reached a... deal. Just now, Colonel Chen dragged the Four-legged Snake's food over. This should be a deal."
A method of exchange. The wisdom of the golden beast is steadily improving, and it may really be possible to make transactions with humans."
"That's okay, animals have become smarter, what should we humans do?" Old Wei said angrily.
"Evolution." Zhao Zilong said in a serious tone, "The natural survival of the fittest has begun. Our human technology has been destroyed too much, and we do not have a greater advantage than animals. Only evolution can find a way out. People like Colonel Chen who have evolved to be more powerful,
Maintain humanity’s superiority.”
…
Equipped with a jumping stick, Shen Cong can run and jump easily, and his speed is no slower than that of a four-legged snake.
The four-legged snake took him east-north. About three minutes later, the four-legged snake led Shen Cong to a U-shaped lake, and then roared at the peninsula in the middle of the lake.
Shen Cong followed the roaring direction of the four-legged snake and saw a huge tree in the middle of the lake, much like a banyan tree, with countless fibrous roots hanging down, like a small forest, occupying the entire peninsula.
From a long distance, I could smell a smell coming from the banyan forest.
The four-legged snake roared twice and began to crawl slowly toward the peninsula's banyan forest.
Occasionally turning back, it seemed as if he was signaling Shen Cong to follow.
Shen Cong dropped behind the four-legged snake and walked cautiously toward the peninsula.
As soon as I arrived at the shore, I found that the originally peaceful banyan forest suddenly became commotion, and then countless huge black and yellow balls rolled out of the banyan forest.
"What is this?" Shen Cong stopped and looked at these big balls from a distance.
This large round ball is approximately round, as if it is composed of many rotting animal remains, and is at least two or three meters in diameter. Behind each ball, there is a fat beetle, pushing it with its hind legs.
Shen Cong looked at the ball made of rotting corpses, and then at the beetle pushing the ball, and instantly reacted: "Dung beetle?"
Dung beetles, scientifically known as dung beetles, have 00 species of dung beetles in the world. They are distributed on every continent except Antarctica. They mainly feed on animal feces and are known as nature's scavengers.
The dung beetle is a beneficial insect that can accelerate the conversion of feces into substances that can be used by other organisms, filling a link in the ecological balance.
However, these fat beetles that look like mutated dung beetles are not pushing dung, but animal carcasses.
The world-destroying meteor shower has changed the habits of too many living things.
The dung beetle who has been a **** all his life has now started to eat meat.
Shen Cong turned to look at the four-legged snake, wondering if it was trading food to deal with these dung beetles who started to eat meat.
The four-legged snake seemed to understand Shen Cong's question and rushed directly towards the dung beetle, its huge body twisting rapidly.
However, the dung beetle's counterattack is far sharper than expected. They climb on their "corpse balls", aim their butts at the four-legged snakes, and quickly dig open the corpse ball with their hind feet, then reveal the metal-like things inside. These things are very special. Shen Cong couldn't recognize it, he only saw the dung beetle looking like a football player, kicking out metal-like debris quickly.
Snap, snap, snap!
These metal debris instantly covered the sky and sprinkled the four-legged snake. Once it came into contact with the four-legged snake, it was as if concentrated sulfuric acid was splashed on the face, violently corroding the skin of the four-legged snake.
The four-legged snake roared back, pushed to Shen Cong's side and kept cooing, as if to say: "Brother, I really can't handle it, you can do it." (To be continued.)
