"Look at the tree! The guy who is watching the bird's nest looks like a lizard."
Holden moved forward two steps and looked up carefully at the tiny reptile in the tree.
"To be precise, it was a dinosaur." Pinkerton corrected with a smile.
"Dinosaur?" Audrey looked back at Mr. Detective, her eyes filled with surprise, "So there are so small dinosaurs in the world!"
Both she and Holden are from the old world where dinosaurs are scarce across the ocean, and their limited impression of these creatures is nothing more than the ferocious beast described in the adventure story.
"Of course there is. In fact, this is the smallest of all the dinosaurs living around Lake Aosta. It's called Xiu jaw." Pinkerton explained.
"Wow! This little guy's size doesn't look as big as a goose, it can actually be regarded as a dinosaur!"
Ruby is also a person who has never seen anything in the world, and fussed and asked Ted Pinkerton afterwards:
"Uncle Detective, Ruby, I want to catch the dragon in the tree alive, maybe I can find clues about the dinosaur's madness..."
"What a joke! A little guy like XiuJianlong can never be infected with that kind of crazy disease..."
Pinkerton is worthy of being a detective. After a little observation, she saw that "Miss Ruby" was insincere and immediately guessed her true intentions.
"Miss Ruby, wouldn't you want to catch a Xiu Jaw dragon, and play as a pet?"
"Um~ Ruby, I think so."
Little Loli scratched her head embarrassedly.
"Siu jaw dragon just looks small and cute, in fact, it is a very fierce carnivorous dinosaur, you see its sharp teeth, bite is terrible, I am afraid it is not suitable for the little girl as a pet." Pink Suddenly persuade Ruby to dispel the idea of domesticating the jaw dragon.
Ruby nodded slightly.
The name "show jaw dragon" reminded Joan of the memories.
The day before yesterday, he decided to participate in an expedition to investigate the dinosaur ecology of Lake Aosta, so he ran to the library to read a lot of dinosaur literature.
One of the documents mentioned the ecological habits of Xiu jaw dragon.
This very small dinosaur moves quickly, is good at jumping and climbing, and is a deadly natural enemy of small animals and birds.
Not only that, Xiu jaw dragons occasionally take the initiative to attack much larger creatures, such as apes or wild goats.
In nature, it is very unwise to challenge a creature ten times larger than yourself.
Xiu jaw dragon dare to do this, but not by courage to die. The teeth of this ultra-small dinosaur are not only sharp, but also inject poison into the prey at the moment of biting.
According to the literature, the toxins produced by XiuJianglong are even more toxic than cobras. The creatures bitten by them will be paralyzed by limb numbness within two minutes, even though their size and strength are greater than XiuJianlong. , Only to be hunted by this little dragon.
Of course, even the Xiu Jaw dragon will not hunt large animals frequently unless food is scarce to a certain extent. After all, the risk is high, and it is not necessary to kill a prey that is far more than your own food, only cheaper scavengers.
In the daily menu of Xiu jaw dragon, bird egg is a snack that is more accessible, risk-free, and nutritious. No wonder the mother bird who defended the nest looked so angry and helpless when facing the jaw-dropping dragon.
Thinking this way, Qiao An quietly started "Higher Endoscopy" to observe the physical attributes of Xiu jaw dragon.

...
The small shape of Xiu jaws is very confusing, but dinosaurs are dinosaurs after all, obviously stronger than other wild animals of similar size.
Joan is curious about the physiology of XiuJianlong, especially its fangs, and intends to capture a living XiuJianlong as a research sample, perhaps collecting its toxins as a casting material.
While he was observing the jaw-dragon, the little beast in the tree was twisting his slender and flexible neck, peeping at the human under the tree with one eye, revealing an alert look.
Joan held his breath and controlled the remote "Master's Hand" towards the tree, intending to catch the dragon.
He thought that his actions were secret and silent, yet he still greatly underestimated the intuition of the beast when facing danger.
Seemingly aware of Joan's attacking attempt, XiuJianlong decisively gave up hunting birds, shrunk into the bushes, followed by a murmur of movement, and quickly slipped away.
Joan pulled the corner of his mouth depressed.
If you knew this, you shouldn't save spell slots.
Facts have proved that trying to use the "mage's hand" to capture the agile dragon jaws is too unreliable.
If there is a chance to meet this "little ghost" in the future, just throw the "sleep technique" over.
Seeing the natural enemies slipping away, the blown bird on the tree still dared not relax his vigilance and watched nervously for Joan and others, lest they go to the tree to pick up the eggs.
Fortunately, it was just a false alarm. There was no "bear boy" in the small team of six people and one dog, and soon went away.
Going down the hillside and walking not far along the shore of the lake, Joan saw a large group of four-legged dinosaurs on the meadow in the distance, nibbling at the fleshy bushy leaves of bushes that resembled holly.
These vegetarian dinosaurs have a beak-shaped mouth, and are similar in size to wild donkeys and horses. Their heads are too large compared to their bodies, and there is a thick shield-shaped bone plate on their heads, which looks like a small triceratops. .
"What kind of dinosaur is that strangely looking like a hat on his head!" Holden pointed to the meadow.
"Hush-don't shout, it's a group of protoceratops."
Pinkerton raised his index finger in front of his lips, motioning the poet to lower his voice.
"Protoceratops is the largest group of dinosaurs on the eastern shore of Lake Aosta. These guys are both timid and sensitive, and they will be frightened if they move a little."
"Will the scared protoceratops actively attack humans?" Hailar asked in a low voice.
"From my observation experience, the protoceratops usually run away when they are disturbed, but if we get too close and show strong hostility, the protoceratops may be provoked to attack."
"Did you see the hard and thick bone plates on their heads? If they were hit by the protoceratops that ran over, the taste would be uncomfortable!"
Pinkerton solemnly warned the group of young people with excess curiosity.
Although from the present point of view, none of these quietly grazing ornithic dinosaurs showed any hostility, Joan still obeyed the detective’s warning, hid in the grass, and used the telescope to observe 300 yards with
higher endoscopy
The group of protoceratops.
