Chen Yuan continued to focus on the broken tail in his hand.

Although detached from the skink's body, it can still move within a short period of time.

This is like a snake being beheaded.

Like species under the lizard order, there are many nerves in their tails. After leaving the body, the nerves do not lose their function immediately, so they can still swing.

On the one hand, its purpose is to escape by itself, and on the other hand, it is also to attract the attention of predators.

The blue tail of the blue-tailed skink is used to attract predators and confuse them to attack the tail instead of the body and head, leaving room for the tail to escape.

After all, the body can't feed you, so I'll give you a tail.

You can fill your stomach, and I can continue to live.

why not?

"Docked tail is also a self-defense ability after long-term evolution." Chen Yuan looked at the tail on his palm in a daze.

Not to mention, the gradient blue is pretty nice.

[Old Chen, does the gecko you mentioned hurt if its tail is cut off? Will it die? 】

[The brother in front probably didn't even go to elementary school, who told you that a gecko would die if its tail was cut off? 】

【Don't worry bro, the gecko won't hurt or die, because it's a skink. 】

"Don't worry, both skinks and geckos belong to the regenerated animals of the lizard suborder, and their escape stunt is to throw away their tails, but the place where they dock their tails is not at the joint between the two tail vertebrae, but at the joint between the two tail vertebrae. A special cartilaginous septum in the middle of the same vertebral body."

"This particular septal structure forms during ossification of the tailbone and is broken by strong contraction of the tail muscles."

"Although there will be pain during the process of docking the tail, the degree of pain is not very great, because the gecko's nerves are mainly concentrated in the trunk, and there are a small number of nerve endings in the tail, which conduct excitation conduction and transmission."

Chen Yuan directly threw the broken tail into the air, opened his mouth and swallowed it smoothly.

"Being able to survive is the most important thing compared to a little bit of pain from docking the tail."

He got up and walked out of the tent, following the footsteps of the skink, he came to a stone, and told Monkey to move the stone away. There were three or four small pits in the only dry soil below, each pit Curled up a blue-tailed pebble.

[Wow, this is their lair. 】

[How should I put it, I slept peacefully, but I didn't expect the house to be opened. 】

【If Pai Daxing had already asked SpongeBob SquarePants to beat you up, Lao Chen. 】

"Don't worry, it won't."

Chen Yuan ignored the blue-tailed skink whose tail had just been cut off, and grabbed the other one and put it on his finger. "Blue-tailed skinks are more docile, and generally they don't take the initiative to attack people."

【Really?When I went to the field to pick up haystacks, I saw this blue-tailed four-legged snake. It scared me to death. Isn’t there a folk saying that the weirder the color, the faster the death. I’m really afraid of death. I’m afraid of it. bite me. 】

"If you encounter blue-tailed skinks in the wild, don't worry. Although they look like snakes, they are only slightly poisonous. You can even ignore the toxicity and basically cause no harm to the human body."

As he said that, Chen Yuan's eyes fell on an earthworm that had just emerged from the ground, and he dug up the mud without hesitation, pulled the earthworm out of the mud hole, and put it near the mouth of the blue-tailed skink, " Come on, do you want something to eat?"

The blue-tailed skink raised its chest proudly, and the short legs that grew on its body rubbed against Chen Yuan's fingers, as if it liked earthworms very much.

He opened his mouth and stretched his head tentatively, grabbing one end of the earthworm.

Then Chen Yuan held the other end with his hand, and saw a whole earthworm being swallowed slowly.

Chen Yuan let go of his hand after swallowing half of it, and let the earthworm hang by the mouth of the blue-tailed skink.

During this process, its belly position close to the front feet is also constantly rising and falling.

After seeing the skinks eating the earthworms that he personally fed, Chen Yuan expressed his feelings, "Actually, you don't feel that there is anything cute about feeding such an animal, but the process of feeding can give people a sense of accomplishment." .”

"Cannibals are short-mouthed, but soft-handed."

"Come on, let everyone take a good look at you."

Chen Yuan put his finger close to the camera, and the blue-tailed skink took a few steps back, hugging Chen Yuan's finger on its hind feet, with its tail hanging below. The blue tail made the skink extraordinarily magical.

"Look at the blue tail and the golden vertical stripes on the body. With this appearance, as a native lizard of our country, he is a handsome lizard!"

[It’s really pretty, I want to raise one. 】

[Catch it if you want to raise it, but this thing runs very fast. When I was a child, I could see it in the grass every day, but there was only a blue light flashing by. 】

[Think about it, this is a second-class protected animal. 】

【What?Is this a second-class protected animal?Fuck, what should I do if I killed one in a rural field when I was a child? 】

[Yanyu Xingxue: Brother, do you not remember clearly?What do you mean you killed one? Did you kill a blue-tailed skink?Didn't you hit a gecko?funny jpg]

[Flower Gulu Crystal Stone: Yes!exactly!I remember wrongly, what I killed was a gecko, haha, wrong memory, wrong memory.Thanks bro for the reminder. 】

[You don't need to thank me, just call me an outlaw fanatic. 】

[National forest resources control police: @花之向向品石Hello, now please check the background private message immediately, we need to contact you. 】

[Haha, laugh to death, don’t let the forest police catch you, brother, run quickly, no, just uninstall the software. 】

[It's still too late to go abroad. 】

The barrage in the live broadcast room suddenly increased.

Chen Yuan couldn't help laughing, this year's netizens are simply too weird. ,

【Is the blue-tailed skink included in the nature illustrated book? 】

The system sends a prompt.

Chen Yuan put the blue-tailed skink back to its original place.

I thought to myself, "Yes."

[The blue-tailed skink has been included in the Nature Illustrated Book - The Rare Wild Animals and Plants Illustrated Book - the second-level rare animal category]

【Blue-tailed skink】

【Affiliated Realm Gate Compendium Section:】

[Congratulations, collect one more precious animal and plant, and you can complete the achievement of collecting natural illustrations. 】

【Currently, the illustrated book of blue-tailed skink has been included in the poison family. 】

[Currently ranks last in the category of poison. 】

【The host please make persistent efforts. 】

Chen Yuan was a little ashamed, "If this blue-tailed skink is poisonous, it really won't be on the board."

Either way.

After patting his butt, Chen Yuan got up and left, choosing to go back to sleep in the tent.

Only in the middle of the night, Chen Yuan suddenly heard noises outside the tent.

When he opened his eyes, he saw black shadows hovering outside the tent, and some of them were actually moving his tent.

"There are wild boars hitting my tent, do you guys think it's a good thing or a bad thing?"

Chen Yuan didn't panic at all, got up and sat down.

[If this were placed on other outdoor anchors, I would probably be scared to death when I met a few wild boars arching a tent, but after watching your live broadcast, Lao Chen, I felt that three or four tigers would be sorry for my expression. 】

Netizens speak easily.

But it's true.

Not only was Chen Yuan not afraid, he was quite happy.

He hasn't eaten wild pork for a long time.

Thank you for the gift of nature.

Chen Yuan winked at Sha Dao who was lying in the tent and moved when he heard the sound, "Brother Sha, come on?"

Then, a black shadow sprang out directly from the tent.

Various cries sounded outside the tent.

A few minutes later, as Sha Dao dragged a wild boar into the tent, the outside also returned to calm.

……

God favored Chen Yuan.

I just woke up early the next morning. After the rain and dew in the morning, after being baptized by the heavy rain last night, the air was filled with the smell of grass and soil.

It can't be said to smell good, but the taste is really good.

Chen Yuan packed up the tent, looked towards the direction of the Leicester Ditch, full of unknowns, "It shouldn't be dangerous there now, right?"

"Forget it, Brother Monkey, let's go."
