Chapter Forty-Nine: The Sweltering Jungle
"Alright, let's start into the woods along this path now, everyone be careful. Li Fei and Wang Peng, who were on the side, took out the mountain knife on their waists and took the lead in opening the way, while Chen Dong followed behind with everyone.
Xiang Tian took out the drone from his black box to start, and after the drone took off, the data was connected and the live broadcast room was opened.
"Damn, anchor, where are you again?"
"Yesterday I scribbled it down, ignoring our feelings, and cursed you for being short and powerless!"
"Yes, yes. ”
"Where is this? in the Lingnan Reserve?"
"Oh my God, the anchor is taking us to see the animals again!"
"This is not the Lingnan Reserve, this is Shennongjia, in the next few days, we will follow, our famous Chinese professors of animals and plants go deep into the depths of the Shennongjia primeval forest, scientific research and investigation. Xiang Tian glanced at the people walking in front and explained.
"Xiang Tian, have you forgotten the introduction of our two brothers?" Wu De, who was walking in front, scolded with a smile.
"Haha, by the way, I'm sorry, there are also our famous meteorological and environmental experts, Wu De, Professor Zhou Aiguo. Xiang Tian added.
"Hahaha! Was the professor talking just now? That's interesting!"
"Hahaha was amused by the professor, it turns out that this is the Shenlong Frame!"
"Wu De.... Professor"
"I just saw Professor Wude!"
"Hahahaha....."
"I'm about to go into the woods, and I don't know what kind of animals and plants I'll encounter. ”
"Looking forward to !!"
After walking for about half an hour, everyone was a little tired.
Li Fei found a spacious place for everyone to rest.
Due to the reason of swallowing the Spiritual Qi Pill, Xiang Tian felt that there was nothing to do for half an hour, although he carried dozens of kilograms of equipment up the mountain, it was no different from walking normally.
The vegetation in the forest is vigorous, and the piles of weeds that have been scorched by the scorching sun gradually diffuse the sour smell of rotting plants.
Everyone was scarlet by the scorching sun, and because the woods were impermeable, Yang Yangyang and Zhang Qidong, sweating profusely, were hiding under the shade of a tree, drinking water.
"It's too hot here, it's like a sauna!"
"Rest for ten minutes, we have to move on, the forest ahead is not so dense, it should be better. Li Fei, who was wearing a camouflage uniform, said with a smile.
"Xiang Tian, why don't you blush and pant for breath? You don't even sweat. Yang Yangyang glanced at Xiang Tian, who had nothing to do, and said curiously.
"Good health, young, it's capital! What do you say, Brother Yang. Xiang Tian teased.
"You mean I'm not in good health? I am in weak health, you kid! Look at Yang Wei, isn't he also sweating profusely, and he is as strong as a cow. Yang Yangyang said dissatisfied.
Yang Wei: ?????
"Lie down the gun!"
"Brother Yang Wei was also shot while lying down!"
"Silence !!"
"The old man pinched his fingers and counted, Yang Wei, this kid is all empty when he hears his name!"
"Hahaha!"
The audience in the live broadcast room laughed.
"This forest is really very hot, because of the previous heavy rain, the humidity is still at the bottom, as soon as the temperature is high, the sun is shining, the moisture in the grass evaporates upward, it is easy to cause a stuffy feeling. Wu De, who was wiping his sweat, explained.
"Then let's go, go forward, maybe we can find a stream, wash our faces." Yang Dong proposed.
After resting for a while, the crowd set off again, and at this time it was noon, the weather was not only hot, but also humid in the forest, mosquitoes were overwhelming, and everyone was crying bitterly. If it's hot, you can't take off your coat, otherwise you'll definitely be bitten all over your body.
But even if you wear a jacket, your head and wrists still can't escape mosquito bites.
Looking at the mosquitoes buzzing and circling like bombers in front of them, everyone in the live broadcast room was happy.
"Look,, what a big mosquito!"
"It's not one, Nima is a group!"
"Hahaha, this mosquito is really Nima-big!"
"A moment of silence for the anchor!"
In order to get rid of mosquito bites, Xiang Tian searched for them in the jungle.
After a while, a white wild chrysanthemum plant was blooming in the middle of the grass.
Xiang Tian walked over, picked off the leaves, crushed them with his hands, and gently put them on the tip of his nose and sniffed them, there was a big smell.
This wild chrysanthemum, also known as pyrethrum, has white petals and a pale yellow center, making it very easy to identify.
Xiang Tian plucked their branches and leaves and white flowers, and handed them to the people who were suffering from mosquito bites.
"Come, crush this and rub it on the exposed skin. ”
The crowd who were complaining about not bringing mosquito repellent took it.
"Xiang Tian, this is a pyrethrum, right? Where did you find it?" Li Qian looked at the white petals in her hand and recognized the name of the flower at a glance.
This pyrethrum smells so great that it is perfect for mosquito repellent. ”
Several people hurriedly picked some leaves from the grass where Xiang Tian found pyrethrum, pinched them and smeared them on their wrists and necks.
"This kind of chrysanthemum, there are a lot of flowers in our flower beds, it turns out that it still has this effect. ”
"The anchor is amazing, these plant professors haven't thought of it yet, and the anchor has thought of it!"
“66666”
"But did you notice, the anchor doesn't seem to have smeared pyrethrum juice, and it doesn't seem that there are mosquitoes around to bite him!"
Xiang Tian glanced at the barrage and explained: "Because they sweat a lot, mosquitoes can find them through the smell of their sweat, the smell and the carbon dioxide that people spit out, and I have applied some mosquito repellent medicine before I came." ”
"the chicken thief!!!"
"Witty anchor!!"
"Then why don't you call me to apply a little bit of it??" Yang Wei was angry on the side, his neck and wrist were bitten everywhere, Xiang Tian secretly applied the medicine, and he didn't tell him! The most hateful thing is that this thing has nothing to do at all.
"You drank too much and were still sleeping at that time, how can I call you?" Xiang Tianbai glanced at Yang Wei and turned his head to keep up with everyone.
"Hahaha!
"That's right, it's so hard to have a brother like an anchor..."
"Look at Brother Wilt's little eyes of the resentful woman!"
"Hahaha, it's so hard. ”
After walking through the forest for another two hours, they finally left the hot and humid forest, and everyone saw a small stream.
The clear stream is murmuring, and a few withered yellow fallen leaves are flowing along the stream....
The stream is not deep, only to the knees of people, and a few small fish and shrimp are wandering happily in the stream....
"Let's come and wash our bodies first, it's four o'clock in the afternoon, let's camp not far from this stream. Li Fei proposed.
Everyone agreed, this day's long journey, so that everyone has not yet adapted, and their legs and feet are somewhat sore, especially Wu De and Zhou Aiguo, the two middle-aged professors, who have stumbled when walking.
"Let's set up our tents on this valley, although it is far away from the water source, but to avoid the danger of flash floods if heavy rain comes, and there are no canyon rockfalls in this area, so we don't have to worry about safety. Wang Peng saw that everyone had washed their faces, and led everyone to the open space halfway up the valley.
Next, Xiang Tian and Yang Wei began to clean up the fallen leaves in the open space with a sapper shovel to avoid poisonous insects and poisonous snakes hiding in the pile of fallen leaves.
Li Fei took Li Qian out a packet of realgar powder from his backpack and sprinkled it around the open space where the tent was about to be erected.
The rest of the people were scattered in the forest about 50 meters away and began to collect firewood.
