Chapter 473: Digging Into History

Living in this rainforest, it is common to encounter anacondas, and the tribesmen are also familiar with this kind of snake.

Anacondas, or more precisely, green anacondas, are lazy and docile compared to the more ferocious reticulated pythons that have a record of eating people.

However, this does not mean that they are weak in lethality.

The chief also recognized the anaconda that was resting on a dead tree by the river.

Its temper is not bad, but it is not very good either.

Generally speaking, the tribesmen and this big snake do not bother each other, and they will avoid it when they encounter it, and will not let children approach it.

They live in peace with each other.

Previously, there were also scientific expedition teams that came to the village to rest. The chief had seen some researchers catch this big snake and record data. At that time, it seemed that there were three or four researchers who took a lot of effort to catch the big snake and put it on the boat together, and put it back into the water after recording.

But in so many years, this is the first time that the chief has seen someone take photos at an extremely dangerous distance without any defensive preparations!

No professionalism at all!

Just like a tourist who is willing to die!

But this "tourist who is willing to die" is on his own ship, and his identity is special. If something happens, it will definitely cause a lot of trouble, and he will have to face the investigation of the Joint Security Bureau.

The chief was in a bad mood, his face sank, and he was about to reprimand.

But Feng Yi said before he opened his mouth:

"Don't worry, I'm a professional."

As he spoke, Feng Yi stretched out his hand and gently slid across the trunk of the anaconda.

He wanted to see where the vertebra in the chief's hand was in the snake's body.

If the bones were complete, Feng Yi could sort all the bones, but the chief only had one vertebra, so he was not so sure.

Fortunately, there was a reference object, and he could find it quickly by looking at the anaconda in front of him.

"Ah, here."

Feng Yi pointed his finger at a certain part of the spine of the anaconda, and said to the chief: "The vertebra in your hand is in this position."

The chief still had a tense face, his eyes were dim, and he was silent.

They were familiar with anacondas, and now they could see that this anaconda had no intention of attacking, nor was it hiding or alert. It didn't even move. If it wasn't still spitting out its tongue, someone would definitely suspect that it was not alive!

Feng Yi finished shooting the material, recorded a few data, put away the camera, thanked the anaconda, and then turned to the chief: "Shall we continue?"

He wanted to talk to the chief about the "giant beast Serpan" today, and wanted to go to the area where Serpan's tomb was located.

The chief rowed the boat away. After rowing forward for a distance, the chief looked back at the location of the anaconda.

After they left, the snake quickly slid into the water. The snake that looked clumsy on land was very flexible in the water. It swung its long body, swam for a while, and sank into the water.

The whole process It didn't look sick.

The chief's eyes flashed with doubt.

Why did this wild, healthy rainforest killer behave so docile just now?

The doubt was not answered, but the chief did not dwell on it. Soon, they started today's conversation.

Maybe the scene just now was too shocking. The chief's attitude was okay during the whole conversation. He also gave a positive response to the things he was still considering.

Feng Yi wanted to see the tomb of the giant beast Serpan, and the chief agreed.

"Then let's go ashore now, rest and set off?" Feng Yi said, "Or you can point me in a general direction, and I can go there by myself."

"The place is not easy to find. It has experienced storms before, and it is difficult to walk in that area. "The chief said.

He was worried about Feng Yi going alone, not because he was worried about Feng Yi's safety, but because he wanted to watch in person and see what he would do.

The distance was not close and time was tight. In order to return to the village before the sun set, they went back quickly after the discussion to make preparations. The chief also brought three villagers with him.

The villagers walked very fast in the rainforest. Originally, the chief was worried that Feng Yi could not keep up, but soon they found that Feng Yi could not only keep up, but he could also shoot materials along the way!

In other words, if it were not for shooting materials, Feng Yi would have left the villagers far behind!

The villagers of the tribe also held a sense of unwillingness to accept it, and they sped up their pace, so that they arrived at their destination nearly an hour earlier than expected.

Feng Yi observed the area.

It was once ravaged by storms and floods during the abnormal climate period, and there were not many ancient trees, but after 20 to 30 years, the re-covered vegetation made this traumatic place , recovering quickly.

The chief and the villagers performed a kneeling ceremony here first.

This is not only the cemetery of the giant beast Serpan, but also the place where they lived for generations.

After the ceremony, the chief looked at Feng Yi not far away.

As the chief of the tribe, the development of the tribe is very important, and faith is also very important.

He needs to consider many factors to make the right judgment and choice.

They do regard "Giant Beast Serpan" as a patron saint.

If it was a few years ago, the chief would not agree to bring Feng Yi here.

But now the situation is different. He knows that other tribes have also dug up a piece of bone elsewhere, but those people did not recognize it.

In the future, perhaps more people will dig up the remains of the giant beast Serpan.

If it is destined to be exposed, it is better to transfer the problem to the experts of the Joint Security Bureau!

There is still faith. If Serpan's tomb is not destroyed by the storm during the disaster period, the people of their tribe will always guard the tomb and will not let anyone disturb it.

But the tomb was destroyed and the remains were scattered everywhere. Once someone found them, those who pursued profit would sell Serpan's remains to all parts of the world, or someone might have already taken action in a place he didn't know.

That's blasphemy!

Serpan should belong to this rainforest!

Let the Joint Protection Bureau take over and let the profit-driven blasphemers be happy for nothing!

It's very difficult to find the remains. Storms destroyed the tombs and floods washed away. No one knows where the remains will be scattered.

It may be close or far away.

This is a long process that requires a lot of manpower, material resources and time. It is not an easy task.

The chief thought Feng Yi would immediately contact the team of the Joint Protection Bureau to get more people involved and make a plan.

Then he saw Feng Yi take out a shovel from his bag.

Chief: ? ? ?

Over there, Feng Yi arrived at the target area and felt the remaining breath here.

It has been too long, and a large area has been destroyed. Of course, there is not much information available now.

However, there are still some slight energy reactions in the vertebrae of the "giant beast Serpan". At this time, Feng Yi sensed not the smell information, but those subtle energy reactions.

The energy signal inside is too weak, and it is difficult to receive it from a little further away.

The good thing is that there is indeed one here.

Feng Yi squatted down and touched the land under his feet.

From the things told by the chief, Feng Yi can see that his tribesmen hundreds of years ago really did not hide anything! They may still hide their original form, but they do not hide their pets at all!

But now, the times have changed.

The satellite network covering the sky makes the "mysterious legends" on the ground no longer mysterious.

The development of science and technology, in addition to more precise detection and monitoring of every corner of the world, also has weapons with increasingly powerful lethality.

On our side, the survival resources are shrinking and development is becoming more and more difficult.

When my grandmother was young, she could move freely for many years, but starting from Feng Yi, the constraints will only tighten.

Feng Yi thought of the "Rainforest Travel Notes" he had read before he came here, all written by previous explorers or people who entered this rainforest with other purposes.

Those contents, in the eyes of people today, are all "stories and legends" and "exaggerations and fictions".

"They don't believe that you really exist." Feng Yi whispered.

The land that was once destroyed by extreme climates has once again nurtured countless lives.

Tall trees and dense branches and leaves block the sunlight above.

In the dark ground and moist soil, plants of different heights are like lids, and together with the soil layer, they bury many past events in this forest.

Racial secrets cannot be made public, of course, but "pets" on the edge of legend and reality can be used as witnesses of history and reappear in the world!

The person who was bold enough to make a statue of the original form and open it to the world once again stretched out a tentative foot to the world.

Feng Yi took out the folding shovel in his backpack, dug up the surface plants together with the soil, and moved them aside. Try not to damage their roots and let them grow in another place.

After digging up the surface plants, continue digging down.

The chief came over with three villagers.

"What are you going to do?" the chief asked.

"I want to dig up history!" Feng Yi continued to shovel the soil.

"Do you want to dig up the remains of the 'giant beast Serpan' here?"

The villagers brought by the chief were all his confidants, and they also knew the purpose of bringing Feng Yi here, so he did not avoid talking to them.

The villagers who followed him at this time had the same idea when they saw Feng Yi's behavior: What good things are you thinking about? Are the remains of the giant beast Serpan so easy to dig? !

When the storm ended that year, the chief secretly brought people here to dig. It took a lot of effort and many days to dig, and only dug out a vertebra.

Later, they came here to dig many times intermittently, but there was no harvest. Instead, other tribes accidentally dug out a piece when they went out to collect.

The rainforest is very large, and the storm floods that year were also very large. After so many years, no one knows where the remains of the "giant beast Serpan" will be found.

The three villagers looked at the chief, wanting him to persuade them, or to help dig?

After all, this expert has spent money in the village!

As the party that has benefited, are we just going to watch?

The chief did not speak immediately. He planned to persuade Feng Yi after he finished digging the pit.

Only after he had experienced it himself and knew the difficulty of digging, his persuasion would be useful.

More soil was dug out, and Feng Yi adjusted his strength and dug down carefully.

Seeing Feng Yi's performance, the chief's eyes moved slightly and he took a step forward to look over.

Feng Yi dug out an object covered with soil from the pit.

Wipe off the soil to reveal its original appearance.

The chief was shocked.

Look at the newly dug bone, and then look at Feng Yi.

The three villagers did the same thing.

All the processes were completed in front of them, without any fraud.

"How did you do it?!" the chief asked excitedly.

"My professional ability." Feng Yi said.

The chief didn't understand, everything in front of him was beyond his cognition.

What kind of professional ability can dig so accurately? !

The chief stared, took the vertebrae covered with mud and identified it, confirming that it was real!

After a rough cleaning, the general shape of this bone can be seen.

This is also a vertebra. It is located further back on the entire snake skeleton than the one in the chief's hand and is slightly smaller, but it is obviously larger than the existing anacondas in the rainforest.

Most people cannot tell it. What people usually see is the complete body of the anaconda armed with muscles, not the skeleton.

But the natives and tribesmen here can tell it at a glance.

Feng Yi took the vertebra back from the chief and said to him: "The giant beast Serpan, right?"

Buried in the tomb three hundred years ago, the bones were well preserved before the tomb was destroyed.

But after the extreme weather destroyed this place, the remains scattered everywhere were eroded by the environment at an increased rate.

For example, the piece in Feng Yi's hand can already be seen to be eroded. If it continues to be left alone, the remaining weak energy reaction will disappear, and it is estimated that in another ten years or so, there will be no complete bone. The further back, the faster the erosion.

Feng Yi looked at the vertebra in his hand.

Since a certain tribesman built the Cepan Tomb here, there is no need to take it to another land.

It is impossible to keep it in the rainforest. The conditions here are limited and it is difficult to maintain it.

It can be placed in the tropical research center established by the Joint Security Bureau on the edge of the rainforest. There is a huge exhibition hall there, with special care and guards.

But before that, Feng Yi has to find more bones first.

After digging out a piece of bone, Feng Yi did not plan to complete all the subsequent work by himself.

The remains are buried in various places in the rainforest. Not only do they need to be dug, but they also need to be carefully cleaned and protected. Feng Yi does not plan to take on all these busy tasks by himself, and he is not professional enough in cleaning.

Even if all the remains are dug out in the end, they cannot belong to him completely. This is what the current laws and regulations require.

Feng Yi did not contact the local Joint Security Bureau immediately.

Even if they belong to the same organization, the discoverers and excavators have different voices than others. Once they are contacted, Feng Yi will not have much to do.

In this matter, Feng Yi wants to get more voice.

He did not plan to contact the domestic expert committee immediately.

The committee was considering the overall situation and making more people profit.

How to get the right to speak and find someone to share the work?

One step at a time.

He had to find an expert who had authority, a genuine love for this kind of work, and sufficient professional knowledge and skills!

It would be best if he could go through the green channel, handle documents conveniently, and quickly move across borders.

Feng Yi stood up and looked around, found a suitable place, took out a satellite phone from his backpack, and started an encrypted call.

There was a logo of the Joint Security Bureau on the satellite phone, which was a special equipment of the Joint Security Bureau, but Feng Yi did not use it often.

This matter can be done with the equipment of the Joint Security Bureau.

Find the number and dial it.

The other side answered.

Feng Yi: "Hello, Steve?"

It's time to set goals at the beginning of the month again.
