In the magical continent of Titan, not only the battles between animals are fierce, but also the battles in the plant world are also very cruel.
In order to allow their lives to continue indefinitely in another way, over the long years, many plants have evolved and improved various magical "seeding" methods and methods.
For example, in order to survive in a different environment, some plants will evolve sweet fruits to lure animals or birds to eat them.
Animals and birds that have swallowed the fruit will carry the seeds of the fruit to new locations thousands of kilometers away. After the excreted fruit seeds fall to the ground, they will grow up, bloom, and bear fruit there, thereby continuing their lives.
, let your species continue to flourish for thousands of generations.
Another example is that some plants are unable to grow sweet fruits due to their own genes. In order to change the bad living environment, they sow seeds in distant places and embark on another evolutionary path.
They did not evolve sweet fruits, but evolved prickly fruits. This kind of fruit is covered with barbed burrs, which can easily stick to the fur of animals. Once an animal passes by, it will be exposed to this plant.
, those prickly seeds will stick firmly to the animal and travel around with the animal until they fall off the animal, and then start a new life there.
Another example is that there is a mysterious nomadic grass on the grassland or desert, whose scientific name is "tumbleweed". Whenever drought comes, this plant will collect its roots from the soil, form a ball and roll around in the wind, etc.
When it reaches a suitable environment for growth, it takes root and regenerates, which is very magical.
Bursting dates are different from other plants. The way they spread their seeds can be said to be the most alternative, magical, and incredible in nature, that is, through the special structure of the fruit, their seeds are shot into the distance like bullets. Therefore, this kind of
Exploding jujube is also known as "plant mortar" in nature, and it is a very magical advanced plant.
The reason why popping dates disperse their seeds by "flying" is mainly because they have not evolved sweet fruits.
Although the fruits of the popping jujube look big and round, their flesh is actually very sour and tastes not good at all. Many animals and birds do not like to eat the pulp of the popping jujube, so the popping jujube cannot be carried by animals.
Scatter seeds to the outside world.
In addition to the sour taste, there is another important reason why the popping grass can only use the "exploding" method to undergo life fission, that is, the popping jujube does not have the "nomadic" ability like the tumbleweed.
As the most mysterious primitive rainforest on the Titan continent, the living environment of the Fuhe Rainforest is very harsh.
Here, there are hundreds of thousands of different types of plants growing on every square kilometer of land, so the struggle between plants is extremely fierce and cruel.
In order to obtain the water and sunlight necessary for life, the jujube trees must do their best to sink their roots deep into the ground. At the same time, they must also try their best to extend their branches to higher places. Only then can the jujube trees survive with great difficulty.
Obtaining a little water and sunlight, the exploding jujubes do not have the ability to be "nomadic". If they are not sown by exploding, they can only stay in the same place throughout their lives.
Like most plants, popping jujube also has the ambition to migrate to other places. They want more fertile land and a wider growing space, and do not want to stay in one place all their lives.
There is no way, the living environment in the Fuhe Rainforest is really terrible. It is the most crowded area on earth, so crowded that other plants will live on them because there is no extra land. What's more, it is so crowded.
In extreme cases, sometimes the exploding jujube has to colonize other species to survive due to environmental restrictions. In this extreme living environment, they also need to change the environment and expand to other places.
earth.
"Anchor, did I hear you correctly? You said these giant dates attacked you? Didn't you go to school? How can dates attack people like guns? You don't have any scientific laws at all!"
Obviously, no one believed Lin Shuhang's inference. In their opinion, it was too far-fetched to connect the previous rain of bullets with these wild dates, and it made no sense anyway.
"Whether these giant jujubes have such an ability, can't we find out if we find a jujube to verify it?" In order to prove his inference, Lin Shuhang decided to find a wild jujube and verify it himself.
Since all the ripe jujubes burst soon after they hit the ground, there are no jujubes under the tree. If you want jujubes, you must pick them from the tree.
It is not convenient for me to climb up and down. After all, I am a person with status. I can only leave such small things to the crazy general.
"Crazy General, come here." Lin Shuhang called the Crazy General to his side and said to him: "Have you seen those dates on the tree? Find a way to shoot it and get a few dates!"
"Roar!" the mad general responded, walked to a jujube tree, stood up, and prepared to climb the tree to pick jujubes.
Seeing the crazy general trying to climb the tree, Lin Shuhang hurriedly stopped him.
"Are you stupid?" Lin Shuhang said: "We are still not sure why this giant jujube burst. You climbed up the tree so recklessly, are you not afraid of being shot into a sieve by the jujube?"
The crazy general looked at Lin Shuhang with confusion on his face, as if asking, how can you pick dates without climbing a tree?
Lin Shuhang reminded: "Why don't you just go find a stone and use it to smash a few dates? You have made such a simple thing so complicated."
"Roar!" Only then did the mad general react. It turned out that the owner was worried that the giant dates would burst and hurt him. After all, they still didn't know under what conditions the giant dates would burst.
You only have one life, so it's always better to be careful.
Stones are easy to find, and Crazy General quickly found a large stone weighing more than 500 kilograms.
In order to avoid an attack after the dates exploded, Lin Shuhang and Crazy General hid behind a thick tree for safety reasons.
This big tree is an ancient redwood tree, with a diameter of seven or eight meters. It has been growing here for thousands of years, and it is perfect for use as a shelter.
"It should be very safe here!" Lin Shuhang said to the Crazy General on the side: "Crazy General, now! Use your strength and hit it hard! No need to aim, just hit it!"
"roar!"
The mad general responded, leaned out half of his body from behind the tree, rounded his arms, and threw the huge boulder in his hand towards the jujube tree.
As a titan bear from prehistoric times, Crazy General weighed an astonishing 40 tons! Among titan creatures of the same level, its IQ may not be the highest, but its strength is definitely the greatest.
A stone weighing more than 500 kilograms is not the same as a brick in its hand? Just listen to a muffled sound of "hoo", and the big stone weighing more than 500 kilograms is directed towards one of the jujube trees as if it was thrown by a giant trebuchet.
