After hearing what his daughter said, Zhao Zhongyao looked around. Then he said: "How to do the experiment. We need to find a small animal. But how can we catch a small animal!"
Just when Zhao Zhongyao said this, he suddenly heard a plop, as if something had fallen into the water.
Everyone heard the movement and immediately looked into the water together. At this time, I saw a brightly colored little snake struggling in the water. This is a snake with a golden ring stripe on its body. At first glance, it should be a poisonous snake.
It should have fallen from a branch of a big tree by the river. Beside this small river, there is a big tree with branches extending to the middle of the river. In such a big tree, many kinds of animals will naturally live.
And some small snakes like to live in trees. Because there are foods they like to eat on the trees, such as small animals such as birds and some insects. These small animals are the food that little snakes like to eat.
The little snake just now was probably hunting on a branch, and then accidentally fell into the water. To say that these animals living in the rainforest are generally not afraid of water. Even terrestrial animals will not be in any danger if they fall into the water. They can swim naturally, and even if they fall into the water, they can easily swim to the shore.
It's just that when the little snake fell into the water, it quickly started to swim towards the shore, looking a little flustered and nervous, as if it was afraid of something in the water.
This is undoubtedly a venomous snake, and it is the more famous golden krait in the Amazon rainforest. Zhao Zhongyao recognized this snake at a glance, it was a very poisonous snake.
But even such a poisonous snake was very nervous after falling into the water, and wanted to swim to the shore quickly! But before it swam to the shore, it met a group of piranhas and swam to it quickly.
Seeing the situation, the golden krait became even more flustered. It tried desperately to swim to the shore. But piranhas in the water don't want their prey to escape. The little animals on the tree will not fall down casually. After finally waiting for the delicacy to be delivered to the mouth, how could he be willing to let it escape!
So, this group of piranhas swarmed up, and immediately surrounded the krait. It was already impossible for the golden krait to escape to the shore. There are dozens of these piranhas. And this golden krait may not have grown up yet, it is just a half-sized golden krait, which is only more than one foot long.
Now, this little golden krait will suffer. This group of piranhas swarmed up, and after a while, they bit this golden krait, which was covered in bruises and blood everywhere. That piece of river was dyed red.
And this little golden ring snake, before it could struggle a few times, was already killed by these piranhas. Everything happened so suddenly that Zhao Zhongyao's family was dumbfounded.
Especially Feifei, Tiantian, and Qu Yuqian, all of them widened their eyes in surprise when they witnessed this scene. They never imagined that this kind of piranha would be so powerful. Although it is not big, its attack power is really amazing.
In just a moment, this golden krait had already eaten up the group of piranhas. Not only the skin and flesh were eaten. Even the bones are eaten clean. After all, it was only a foot-long krait, and its bones were not too big. For this group of hungry piranhas, it was really not enough to eat.
All of this was over in a few minutes. For Zhao Zhongyao's family. The scene that happened in Xiaohe just now was really astonishing.
Especially Feifei, he felt a little lingering fear now. He was thinking, if it wasn't for his father to hold him back. Don't let him wash his face. If he put his hand directly into the water. The result can be really scary. His hands may soon be bleeding from the bites of these nasty piranhas.
The same goes for Tian Tian and Qu Yuqian. When the two of them witnessed that golden krait that made this group of water tigers eat up their money in a short time, they were also shocked into a cold sweat. My body, which had been feeling very hot, no longer felt so hot in an instant.
"Well, you can see clearly now! Did I lie to you? These small fish are not ordinary fish, they are the notorious piranhas in the Amazon rainforest." Zhao Zhongyao said.
"Dad, what is a piranha, and what's so special about this fish." Feifei didn't want to wash his face anymore, he just wanted to know something about piranhas.
Tiantian and Qu Yuqian also looked at Zhao Zhongyao curiously after hearing Feifei's words, wanting to hear some common sense about this piranha.
At this time, Zhao Zhongyao looked at everyone again and said: "Piranhas are also called piranhas and piranhas. It has a short neck, a very hard skull, especially the palate, an oval body with flat sides, and a tail fin shaped like a It is also shaped. It is an edible fish. The body is oval, with flat sides, and the caudal fin is shaped. The body is grayish green, the back is dark green, and the abdomen is bright red.
It has sharp teeth, a well-developed jaw with spines, and is known for its ferocity. It is difficult to distinguish between male and female. Generally, the color of male fish is brighter and smaller, while the female fish is larger and lighter in color, and the abdomen is more swollen when sexually mature. Mature piranhas are similar in appearance to both sexes, with bright green backs, bright red bellies, and side markings.
Has a highly developed sense of hearing. The two jaws are short and powerful, the lower jaw is protruding, and the teeth are triangular, sharp, and arranged alternately up and down. After biting the prey, it bites tightly and tears the meat off with the twisting of the body. It can bite off 16 cubic centimeters of meat in one bite. Rotational replacement of teeth enables continuous foraging, and strong dentition can lead to severe bites
hurt.
There are many varieties of piranhas, and the ones with certain ornamental value are common in the aquarium market. The whole body of this fish is turtle green, and groups of piranhas often eat up the bones of animals that stray into the water in a short period of time, and even eat people who stray into the water.
The piranha is one of the most notorious for its sharp teeth and instances of attacking larger animals in packs. During a stay in Brazil, someone witnessed the horrific sight of a school of piranhas tearing a cow to shreds in mere seconds.
Piranhas have distinctive triangular-shaped teeth with a powerful bite that can easily tear prey apart. When eating, they can eat up their prey, leaving only a pile of bones. Although the piranha is small in size, its temperament is very fierce and brutal.
Once the bitten prey is full of fishy smell, it will be crazy, with its sharp teeth, like a surgeon's scalpel, frantically biting and cutting. Bite and cut up prey until a pile of skeletons remains.
If it is a small number of domestic piranhas, they timidly retreat to the farthest corner of the fish tank and dare not move. Piranhas are highly intelligent and will attack the tail and eyes of their prey first. When it can't swim anymore, it will rush up and share the prey. Even large animals attack the shoulders first, because that's the weakest point.
But piranhas are clumsy in size and slow in swimming. Scientists believe that the discus-shaped body is a sign of their mutual recognition. Piranhas also have a unique characteristic, that is, they are extremely fierce only when they are in groups, and they will become very timid once they are separated from the group or in small numbers. If they are not hungry, they will not attack even if they put their hands in the water.
Even curl up in a corner. The bite force of the upper and lower jaws of the piranha is amazing. It can bite through cowhide or even hard wood, and can bite off a steel fishing hook. Of course, other fish are no match for it.
The crocodile, which usually dominates the water, will shrink into a ball in fright once it encounters a piranha, then turn its body to face the sky, put its hard back down, and immediately float to the surface of the water, so that the piranha cannot bite the abdomen, ensuring own life safety.
The life of piranhas can be grouped or solitary according to their genus. When living in groups, there are usually hundreds or thousands of piranhas gathered together. The smallest 6 can form a group. They can use their vision, smell and sensitivity to water vibrations Feeling seeking into purpose.
However, their eyesight is poor, and they can only be distinguished from each other by their discus-like body shape. Piranhas have the guts to attack animals that are several times or even dozens of times larger than themselves, and they also have a set of effective "encirclement and suppression tactics".
When they hunt, piranhas always bite the fatal parts of the prey first, such as the eyes or tail, so that they lose the ability to escape, and then take turns attacking in groups, rushing forward one by one to bite Take a bite, then step aside to make room for the fish behind, quickly breaking down the target with unbelievable speed. "
Zhao Zhongyao now tells everyone some common sense about piranhas that he knows. Feifei, Tiantian and Qu Yuqian listened. Everyone is very afraid of this kind of fish. Think about it, the little fish in this small river are so powerful that even the tyrant crocodile in the water is afraid. From this point of view, this small fish is the real overlord of the water.
"Dad, this little fish is really good! Then how do we cross the river? Could it be that we have to build a bridge first." Feifei looked at the small river in front of him. There are also piranhas swimming around in the water, already feeling a little overwhelmed.
Tiantian and Qu Yuqian also looked at Zhao Zhongyao after hearing Feifei's words. I was also a little worried that they would not be able to wade across this small river this time!
After hearing Feifei's words, Zhao Zhongyao thought for a while and said: "Any creature in the world has a way to deal with them. The most powerful creature is in front of smart humans, so what is it! Of course we can get through this A small river. And, these piranhas will not attack. We can easily ford this small river."
Hearing what Zhao Zhongyao said. Feifei, Tiantian and Qu Yuqian just looked at Zhao Zhongyao curiously. I want to know how he will deal with this group of wolf-like piranhas.
"That's right. Although these piranhas are powerful, they have a shortcoming. They are very sensitive to smells. When they smell blood, they will become extremely vicious. This is similar to sharks in the sea. the same.
But this kind of fish is very annoying to something called mosquito repellent. They don't like the smell of mosquito repellent. As long as the person is smeared with the grass juice of this mosquito repellent. That's when you're in a creek with piranhas. These piranhas can only keep you at a respectful distance, and dare not attack you at all.
So, as long as we can find some mosquito repellent, we should be able to safely wade across this small river. "
Zhao Zhongyao watched everyone express his thoughts. After hearing Zhao Zhongyao's words, Feifei, Tiantian and Qu Yuqian naturally agreed immediately. After all, now they have no other choice. It can only be tried in this way.
At this time, Feifei looked at Zhao Zhongyao again and said, "Then how can we find the mosquito repellent, and what does this mosquito repellent look like."
At this time, Zhao Zhongyao looked at everyone again and said: "The mosquito repellent we bought in the market is because it is to be put at home. These flowers and plants have been cultivated artificially. They can emit a fragrance. It is like The mosquito coils used by us humans are the same. In this way, when we use them, we will not feel uncomfortable.
However, the native mosquito repellent in nature does not emit fragrance. On the contrary, this wild mosquito repellent emits a foul smell. If people smell it, they will feel very uncomfortable.
But this kind of thing has a unique expulsion effect on piranhas.
As long as the person is smeared with the juice of this mosquito repellent. You can move freely in the water. without being attacked by piranhas. "
After Zhao Zhongyao said this, Feifei, Tiantian, and Qu Yuqian were all very happy. It's just that I don't know where to look for such mosquito repellent for a while.
At this time, Zhao Zhongyao looked at everyone and said: "As long as we can find a grass with a smell now, it should be a wild mosquito repellent grass. The leaves of this grass are relatively small, and they are usually found in some places. There are bushes where the sun can shine, let's split up and look for it!"
After Zhao Zhongyao said this, everyone started looking for it. Although this is the Amazon rainforest, there are also such mosquito repellent plants. As long as you look carefully, you should be able to find this wild mosquito repellent.
So, everyone started looking for it. To find this kind of grass, you can only rely on smell. As long as you can smell something like rotten eggs, it may be this kind of mosquito repellent!
Zhao Zhongyao's family was looking for it. I also heard Zhao Zhongyao talk about the appearance of this grass. And where the grass might be.
We searched along the river. Soon, Feifei smelled something like rotten eggs coming from the front, so he walked over first, thinking that there would be something like mosquito repellent ahead. If there is, then this grass can be used to help them cross the river.
