In the boring process of advancing, they found a mark left when they came, and according to that mark, they went forward for another day, and after that, they found nothing.
The Kantas, then large cubs, could not fly, so they traveled to the breeding grounds on foot. Along the way, in addition to carefully recording the landform features, Meng Jiuzhao and other Kantas also left many marks. These marks are well preserved in cold places, but now, the remaining ones are extremely limited.
Even Meng Jiuzhao and the others thought this sweet grass tasted good, not to mention the vegetarian dinosaurs that lived on grass. Many vegetarian dinosaurs that disappeared during the extremely cold period came out to the feast one after another. Not only did they come back by themselves, but this time they brought their cubs with them.
Just as the kantas ran off to cold places to give birth to their offspring, so the vegetarians gave birth to their young in safety. Although they were about the same age, the cubs of these vegetarian dinosaurs were much larger than the cubs of Kantas. If George and the others were placed next to them, George would probably not be as tall as a stegosaurus cub's calf.
The scenery in front of him is probably the most beautiful scenery for herbivorous dinosaurs, but for Meng Jiuzhao, this kind of scenery can only make him more anxious.
There are more herbivorous dinosaurs, and carnivorous dinosaurs will follow. Today's environment has become more and more complicated. In addition to huge vegetarian dinosaurs, there are also other carnivorous dinosaurs waiting for opportunities. As the temperature rises, the plants here grow longer and better. The adults are naturally fine, but the short-legged Kantas cubs have already been submerged in the grass. Once, when George was wandering in the sweet grass, suddenly an unknown predatory dinosaur flashed through the grass, trying to catch George who was jumping around in the grass. Fortunately, George was very heavy and it failed.
The adult Kantas are very powerful, but their cubs are very weak. This time it was only a miniature dinosaur that made a fool of themselves. Once a more powerful dinosaur tries to do it next time, the cubs are likely to be injured.
Since then, all cubs have been prohibited from going to the ground.
Agitated, the group of Kantas walked forward for a further distance, and the appearance of sporadic plants that had never been seen made Meng Jiuzhao's heart sink more and more.
Finally, they got lost—
One evening, Meng Jiuzhao lowered his head and stated his final conclusion.
"Too many new plant species have appeared here, and the original relatively single vegetation structure has been completely destroyed. We may not be able to go home through vegetation distribution..."
All the Kantas here know that Meng Jiuzhao relies on plants to distinguish directions. Once plants can't be reliable guides, it can only mean one thing: Meng Jiuzhao may not be able to continue his work as a guide.
Meng Jiuzhao thought he would be blamed, but—
"And then? What do you think you should do, bald?"
Without any blame, he continued to look at Meng Jiuzhao with trusting eyes, and Qiao Qiao asked him about his next plan.
"I feel that we are very close to home! I feel that I can smell my father~" Xiaohua is also very satisfied: "It's all because of Tu's guidance!"
Looking at the faces of these Kantas one by one, Meng Jiuzhao didn't see any complaints.
Then, Meng Jiuzhao's restless heart suddenly calmed down.
At night, the twenty-one-year-old Kantas Qiqi turned into a prototype and gathered the cubs inside. They used their bodies to build the safest room for the cubs.
Meng Jiuzhao and Alice are also here.
Allowing a group of cubs to press her as a quilt, Alice slept very soundly. Meng Jiuzhao didn't have a good body to resist pressure like a girl, and now his arms could receive at most two cubs at a time.
At this moment, George and Dodo were held in his arms.
"George, Dad is lost. We might have to use Kantas' wild intuition to find Grandpa." Meng Jiuzhao poked George's head little by little with his fingers, and Meng Jiuzhao suddenly showed a smirk. Digging and digging, he found a small piece of hide, uncovered it, and passed it right under George's nostril.
"George, come on, smell it! This is the smell of my great-grandfather!" The animal skin was full of poop, which was frozen and soaked all the way, and finally there was only a little bit left. I don't know why. , Meng Jiuzhao left it, and it finally came in handy today.
"Chirp!" With a small sneeze, George purred and rolled off Dad's lap. Looking at the poop in his father's hand, George didn't want to come over for a while.
"Okay, okay~ I won't play tricks on you, come and sleep." Meng Jiuzhao wrapped the poop in his hand again with animal skins, beckoned to George, and finally hugged him and Dodo together, one person + two cubs They all fell asleep together.
For Meng Jiuzhao, this was just a small episode, just a joke to tease George while having a hard time. What he didn't expect was that George would remember it in his heart from then on.
The cubs are not allowed to go to the ground to run by themselves most of the time now, but there is still a fixed time to let the wind out every day, and they will play together.
George is different. When other cubs are playing happily, George usually chooses to sit on his sister's head and sleep.
But this is the usual situation. After Meng Jiuzhao and George finished joking, the next day George stopped sleeping during the wind-off time. His small pale yellow body jumped up and down among the grass, looking at his rarely lively son, Meng Jiuzhao forgot all his troubles for a while, and he felt so relieved.
But he soon lost his comfort.
When the wind time was over, George came back obediently, and came back with him...
And a lump of poop.
"Chirp!" George called out crisply.
Look~ what a innocent little look, my son, are you really not revenge on your father for smelling your great-grandpa's poop yesterday
Holding a small lump of poop on a leaf in his hand, Meng Jiuzhao's face also looked like poop.
Then, Meng Jiuzhao was attacked by poop one after another. At first, there was only one cub, George. Later, I don’t know how the other cubs knew about it. They were all very capable. In a short period of time, Meng Jiuzhao got a total of twenty kinds of dinosaur poop.
It's almost like opening a poo museum!
Wanting to cry without tears, Meng Jiuzhao had to hold a separate meeting for the cubs, and praised them for their dedication to giving gifts to the adults. At the same time, he said that the gifts were too precious to fit in his backpack.
The cubs let him go (although George still packs daddy a jitter when he sees a special poop).
Meng Jiuzhao really had a big head at the beginning, and the days of crying without tears every day and burying his stool every day really stink. until one day-
When he habitually processed the poop gift packs he received that day, Meng Jiuzhao suddenly discovered that the poop he had buried before had sprouted.
To be precise, the grass seeds in the poo have germinated.
Although the leaf is young, it is very familiar. After waiting for two days, Meng Jiuzhao made a surprise discovery——
"I found that salty big-leaf grass!"
On the same day, Meng Jiuzhao announced the good news to all Kantas.
The cub who brought back this pile of poo was Gun Gun. All the adult Kantas kissed him that day, and the little guy's fur was licked wet, which made the other cubs envious.
Under the leadership of Gun Gun, Meng Jiuzhao and the others quickly found the owner of the poop—the Banmosaurus. It was a very special dinosaur, small in size, and lived in groups. Grass leaves would have special tooth marks after being eaten by them. According to Meng Jiuzhao and the others finally found the location of the distribution of the salty big-leaf grass due to the characteristics of the tooth marks, and at the same time they also found a certain mark left here before.
Thanks to the kindness of the cubs, the adults finally found the right way home!
It has to be said that Meng Jiuzhao discovered the secret in the poop just right, even if it was a little later, it would be difficult for them to find these salty big-leaf grasses. It may be due to the dragon's personal preference. When Meng Jiuzhao looked for them, those There is not much grass left. It is conceivable that there will be no grass roots left in a few days, but quite a lot of grass seeds are eaten by the Banmu dragon. The speed of the Banmu dragon is very fast. It will be carried in all directions by them, will be excreted on a certain day, and then take root and germinate when the temperature is right, and maybe another piece of salty fronds will grow.
If Meng Jiuzhao had discovered the salty big-leaf grass at that time, it is very likely that their way home would be the opposite of home.
But now, Meng Jiuzhao and the others are one step closer to home.
Contrary to when they came, on the way back, as they moved forward, the vegetation along the way became more and more lush. Not only that, Meng Jiuzhao always felt that in this short period of time, the climate seemed to have changed again.
The evidence is that it has started to rain here.
For Meng Jiuzhao, this is the first rain he has seen since he left for the breeding ground.
Having not seen water for a long time, the dirty Kantas took a quick shower. They were very bold with themselves, but cautious with their cubs. They only washed their little paws, and then Put the little ones back in their pockets.
The only cub who had a good time with the rain was Alice.
Aquatic Alice likes rain so much~ Later, she simply became a prototype and collapsed on the ground to let the rain drench.
When all the Kantas were watching the rain with great interest, Meng Jiuzhao was frowning.
This world changes too frequently, and whenever something special happens, he has to consider the cascading effects of this event.
Regarding this rain, Meng Jiuzhao thought a lot in his mind. He thought about the river that brought them here, and also thought about the lusher and more complex vegetation distribution. He thought about many bad situations, most of which were natural disasters, but What happened in the end was the only "man-made disaster" that he didn't expect.
Yaya is missing again (hey! Why use "again").
