Traveling through the eighties, squeamish Longbao is three and a half years old

Chapter 39 It's Not a Stone Egg, It's a Fried Egg
Qin Jiao didn't have the patience to accompany her grandfather to do these tasks. She chased her brothers up the mountain to play.

The children in the village are not so particular. Apart from not being allowed to enter the deep mountains, they are allowed to play in the area between the temple of the mountain god and the village.Now there are people guarding the chain bridge and the cave entrance on the mountain wall, even if the brats want to be naughty, they can't do it.

"Brother, why don't you bring Jiaojiao together, I'll ask Xiao Jiaojiao to find you a good-looking little snake."

Qin Shu resolutely refused, and all the older children, including Hei Mu, refused to allow Qin Jiao to follow him up the mountain. They didn't have the strength of adults to protect children on the mountain.In order to let the children stay in the village honestly, Qin Jun was forced by a group of brothers to stay and play with his sister.Qin Jun was so angry that he jumped, and he didn't dare to say that he didn't want to be with his sister, his face was wrinkled like a bitter melon.

The two sisters, Qin Shuang and Qin Xue, came over and wanted to play house with Jiao Jiao. Of course, their purpose was not with Jiao Jiao, but to take this opportunity to play with Qin Jun.

"Sister Xue'er, Jiaojiao doesn't want to play tricks, so let's go find Little Snake, shall we?"

Qin Xue's face turned pale.It is true that she is a child in the mountains, but not every child in the mountains likes snakes and wild beasts. She is very afraid of snakes, and she dare not even look at rice field eels.

Qin Shuang pulled Xue'er to the side, and wrinkled her face: "No girl can play with this, Xue'er, let's go, we won't play with her."

Qin Jiao watched the two little sisters leave with her mouth open. After a while, she held her brother's hand aggrievedly and looked up at him: "Brother, Jiao Jiao doesn't like playing house games."

Qin Jun didn't like it either, so he picked up his younger sister and ran to the exploration team, while reassuring her that she would not play if she didn't want to play. He took Jiaojiao to Grandpa Hei to listen to his storytelling.

The stories of Grandpa Hei are very nice, they are all interesting stories from his youth, Qin Jun likes to pester Grandpa Hei to listen to him, for this reason he can calm down and learn from Hei Mu, and will come to Grandpa Hei every two days Here is a set of exercises.

"Xiaojun, why are you alone?" Grandpa Hei put down his reading glasses, looked at the siblings, "Where are they? Hei Mu took him out to play again?"

"They went to the mountain to find the little snake. I have to watch my sister." Qin Jun unconsciously betrayed his friends, and then went to the table to find out the questions that he hadn't finished last time and continue.

"Jiaojiao, just play here, okay? After my brother finishes his homework, ask Grandpa Hei to tell us a story."

Qin Jiao puffed her cheeks and sighed: "Okay, bro, hurry up, I can't sit for long."

Qin Jun poked his sister with the tip of a pencil, which made her laugh for a while before calming down to do the questions.

These questions are some geographical knowledge and basic arithmetic problems.Many college students from the geological team came to practice, and writing questions for a few children became one of their few pastimes.Especially when I saw the children scratching their heads, those unscrupulous adults were still eating snacks and making fun of them.

Among this group of children, Qin Jun's ability is not outstanding, and his physical fitness is not as good as his cousins, but he has an advantage, his concentration is very strong, and his mobility is not bad. He is a good seed for academic research.

Seeing her brother doing the problem, Qin Jiao lay down on the table boredly to see what Grandpa Hei was doing.

"Grandpa Hei, what is this?"

In front of Grandpa Hei, several stone specimens and samples of rock soil were placed.

"Grandpa is studying stones, is Jiaojiao interested?"

Holding the little girl on his lap and sitting down, Grandpa Hei softly told her about the composition of each stone and the approximate age when it was formed.

Qin Jiao stretched out her finger and touched it curiously, and made a "babbling" sound from her small mouth.Seeing the little girl's cute appearance, Grandpa Hei rubbed her head affectionately, picked up an oval-shaped stone on the far side and continued to study.

"Grandpa Hei, what are you looking at? This stone looks like a duck egg."

"Yeah, Grandpa Hei is watching, maybe it's a fossilized egg."

Generally speaking, there is not only one egg fossil found, but in the place where this oval-shaped egg fossil was found, the geological team searched for a long time but did not find the second one, so this stone is similar to an egg fossil Whether it is a pure stone or a real egg fossil, professional equipment is needed for identification.

This stone, which resembles an egg fossil, has obvious egg skin and natural texture from the outside.But fossils of paleontology have never been found in this mountain. No one can explain how a simple egg became a fossil and has been preserved to this day.

Hei Lao is more inclined to believe that this egg fossil may have wandered here from the outside world, but this argument is also untenable.Because the place where this suspected egg fossil was found was in the soil layer outside the opening of the chain bridge, no one would bury a fossil egg there specifically.

Jiaojiao looked up for a while, her neck was tired, seeing that Grandpa Hei was still holding it up and refused to let it go, she couldn't hold it back, and stretched out her hand to pull his wrist.

"Grandpa Hei, put it on the table, Jiao Jiao wants to see it too."

The old man Hei smiled, gently placed the stone on the flannel on the table, picked up another stone with the same texture but a completely different shape, and looked at it.

Qin Jiao touched the stone egg for a while, then turned her head to talk to Grandpa Hei, but seeing him in a daze again, she leaned back curiously: "Grandpa Hei, why are you looking at a broken egg?"

"Jiaojiao thinks this is an egg?"

"Yeah, it's a snake egg. It was a snake egg a long time ago."

She innocently stretched out her fingers and touched the core of the stone.

"It's all empty here, it must have been stolen by other small animals."

Old Man Hei squinted his eyes, and thought about it in a different way. If Jiaojiao's words were true, then it could really explain why the stone skin was made of ordinary stone.But snake eggs?Is this possible?

If you think about it carefully, there might really be snake egg fossils here.

Although it is difficult to form a complete egg fossil because the shell of snake eggs is much softer than that of dinosaur eggs and ostrich eggs, but if by chance, when a snake lays eggs, it happens to encounter mudslides or other address changes. A whole nest of eggs was destroyed, and only one intact egg was buried. After tens of millions of years of changes, it is not impossible to form a rare egg fossil.

After figuring this out, Mr. Hei picked up the phone on the table and dialed out, and asked someone to send a specimen box to save this precious egg fossil, and send it to the laboratory to verify the authenticity later.

Seeing Mr. Hei instructing his assistant to carefully put away these stones, Qin Jiao opened her mouth wide in surprise, looked at those boxes and stones, then at Grandpa Hei, couldn't hold back, and tugged on her brother's sleeve .

"Brother, brother, is this Shidandan very expensive? Can we sell it for money, or else, let's take Grandpa Hei to find Shidandan, so that brothers can pay for their tuition."

Hearing Qin Jiao's words, the assistant next to her laughed and joked, saying that she is such a good sister, and she still wants to earn tuition fees for her brothers.

"Little girl, it's hard to find stone eggs. It's good luck to have one or two of them."

"No, there are many in the mountains!" Qin Jiao had no idea that he had dropped a bomb by accident.
