Chapter 141 The origin of the dragon stone
Panlong Stone! What's that thing? When Wang Buping heard the old man say it was Panlong Stone, he couldn't understand it. It could be really a dragon.
"Old man, what is this Panlong Stone? Why haven't I heard of it?"
"Of course you have never heard of this Panlong Stone. There are no more than five fingers now. I know Panlong Stone, so there is a reason."
"What's the reason? You always tell me."
"Little girl, don't ask, I'm going to tell you too, don't waste this stone. I don't know if there is a third piece in this world. I don't know yet that this stone cannot be destroyed.
Our generation has experienced this society and several different periods. One of them was the period when the Four Olds were destroyed. Many national treasures were damaged in that era, and so was the Panlong Stone.
You should know that when you destroy the four old things, one of them pointed the finger at these ancient things, and it was this that destroyed the Panlong Stone.
I remember that at that time, the master told me that I was digging a large mountain range. My master worked inside and dug up such a big guy when he was halfway through the mountain range.
Everyone thought this thing was evil and was about to be destroyed, but my master found that the stone might be a stone carving from ancient times, so he found a few stonemasons who were all stone carvings like him in that team.
At night, they secretly transported the stones out while they had not destroyed them. Then, when they were resting, they would gather together to carve the stone.
In this way, after a week, the stone was carved out by them. When everyone saw the complete form of this thing, they were shocked. It was a dragon coiled on the stone.
Originally, in their opinion, such things should be national treasures. Everyone is planning to hide them here first and wait for a while to transport them away.
Who knew that something happened just a few days later. When everyone was about to go and check it out one day, they found that the thing was missing. At first, they thought it was the one among them, so they secretly transported it away.
However, later I found that everyone was present for carving this thing, and everyone said that it was not transported away. Besides, such a big thing could not be transported away by one person.
Finally, everyone searched in the cave, and found many places around the cave, but they didn't find it. Later, they found out that it was discovered and transported away.
Not just a few days later, everyone in their mining area was gathered. I heard that something was found in the team and was going to be publicly damaged.
A few people followed and gathered in the square for the meeting. When they saw something on the table in the middle was covered with black cloth, it looked quite small.
At first, the few people didn't expect that the thing that was going to be damaged this time was the dragon they carved. When the black cloth was uncovered and they saw that it was the dragon, they knew that the thing was finished.
In ancient times, this dragon was only used by the emperor. When it appeared during this period, it was the old customs among the four old ones, and this was the representative of the restoration of the imperial system.
In the end, although some of them also found a way to save this thing, but no, if they dared to go against them at that time, it would be a verbal act of seeking death.
This dragon stone was finally smashed by those people with a sledgehammer. This is also a permanent regret for my master back then. You must know that since that period, he has walked many places and has not discovered such strange stones.
Finally, I gave the stone a name, which can be regarded as commemorating its existence, and it is called "Panlong Stone".
Fortunately, my master has traveled so many places, otherwise I would not have been able to become his teacher. This is my luck."
Wang Buping was also a little proud after hearing these things. That era was indeed a dark history. Many people were killed, many things were damaged, and history also regressed for more than ten years.
"Old man, can you carve this thing out? Let's show you how amazing it is."
Wang Buping thought about how this thing was formed. You should know that yesterday a few people said that this stone would take at least 200 million years, which means that it was not used by ancient emperors. At that time, there was no such species as humans.
Now this problem is complicated. This is not caused by humans. How did that come about? What kind of primitive animals can really be there? There is really a dragon.
If there is a dragon, Wang Buping should be the one who should believe the most. His space cannot be explained. It is not strange to have a dragon.
"I can definitely do it, but it will take a week. This thing needs to be slowly carved. If it is damaged a little, I am afraid I cannot forgive myself.
You prepare a place for me to live in peace, and then transport the stone to me. I plan to carve this thing here. Don’t look at it during this period, disturb me, do you know?"
Looking at the old man's serious expression, Wang Buping knew that the old man had become serious and his lazy aura disappeared. It seemed that this matter was very important to him.
Originally, Wang Buping and the old man came earlier, and there were only a few people here. Now, as time goes by, he found that the number of people gathered more and more, as if there were more tourists than yesterday.
It seems that tourists who went back yesterday have been promoted again. People who are close to Wangjia Village have rushed over to see it. Wang Buping is also planning to find a place for the old man today and transport the stones to him. Now it is impossible to do it. It will take until the evening. Everyone is looking at it, and Wang Buping is preparing to transport it away.
"Oh, unping, why did you come so early? Did the stonemason you found yesterday come?"
When Wang Buping heard the voice of Mr. Qin, he turned around and saw that several old men had just come up now. However, today, seeing the three old men who were quarreling yesterday were not in good shape, Wang Buping didn't know what was going on.
"Here, this person next to me is. Now I understand what this is. The person I'm looking for knows this."
When they heard someone know each other, they took a few steps and arrived at Wang Buping. Now, they really want to know what this is. The time for the test yesterday was beyond their expectations.
"Boping, tell me quickly, what is this?" Looking at Hua Shiyan's anxious look, Wang Buping couldn't understand. He didn't see him pay much attention to what this stone was yesterday!
Wang Buping said to them what the old man said just now. When everyone heard that this thing was a dragon, the expression on his face was really indescribable.
What's wrong with these people? They all stood there in amazement. Judging from their expressions, they seemed to be scared.
Wang Buping looked at Ge Ruolan next to him and asked, "What's wrong with them?"
"You look at this and you will know what's wrong with them. The news sounds so surprising."
After taking the thing handed over by Ge Ruolan, Wang Buping found that it was several investigation reports. He didn't go to see it. He was not a professional, so he couldn't find a clue. It would be better to ask directly.
"Tell me, I don't understand a lot of things when I look at this thing, and I don't know much about it, you are a professional, and you still need me to see this."
Hearing Wang Buping's words, Ge Ruolan was happy and thought, this guy was not a pig's head, and he knew how to praise others.
"I didn't ask me to test the specific year yesterday, but this result is hard to believe that this thing should be 800 million years ago.
You should know that at that time, most of the earth was still covered by the ocean. In the late period, large areas of land appeared on the earth. That period was called the 'Proterozoic', which means the era of primitive organisms. Only then did marine algae and marine invertebrates appear."
In the ‘Proterozoic period’, how is this possible? Although Wang Buping didn’t know the specific things there, he also knew the specific time period of the earth.
The divisions from ancient times to the present are: Ancient, Proterozoic, Paleozoic, Mesozoic and Cenozoic.
In ancient times, 2.4 billion years ago, the original lithosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere formed on the surface of the earth.
In the Proterozoic period, it dates from 2.4 billion to 600 million years ago, which is the era above.
In the Paleozoic era, 600 million to 250 million years ago, a large number of animals began to appear in the ocean, and these animals also began to march onto the land.
The Mesozoic Era is 250 million to 70 million years ago. During this period, everyone should be most familiar with dinosaurs.
The Centogen is only about 70 million years ago, and it was during this period that human beings began to evolve.
Wang Buping now understands why these people were surprised. In the Proterozoic period, at that time, creatures appeared on the earth. If this thing is really a fossil of a living creature, it would be amazing. This shows that dragons, such creatures, have really appeared on the earth.
"Then, have you figured out whether this is a fossil?"
"I don't know, but I haven't studied it. Anyway, the test results say this is a stone, but if it is a stone, why did this result appear and how did it form?"
"Forget it, since you can't figure it out, I won't worry about it anymore. When the old man carved it out, everyone will see if this is the shape of a real dragon."
"Uneven, if you are really a dragon, it will be a priceless treasure. When it is really carved, let's take a look. Now you can't tell what it looks like."
"Yes, we old guys are struggling with something here. Anyway, we can't figure out how it was formed now. There are more than one thing we can't figure out in the world."
