"Well, Fan Ye should continue to talk about Shennongjia!"

"That's right, I seem to have heard that there is a kind of chicken in Shennongjia, which is very big in the local area, three eggs can have about a catty, and an adult rooster can have a three-year-old child on his back, weighing more than ten catties, but there are no cherry blossoms outside."

Chen Fan smiled: "It seems that there is this new, but it has not been confirmed, this is indeed a magical land." According to legend, Emperor Yan Shennong came here to collect herbs, although he had great powers, he could not climb the cliffs, so he set up 36 ladders and climbed the cliffs. Since then, this place has been called Shennongjia.

You, not far from me is a thousand peaks steep, thousands of deep ravines, known as the "roof of Central China", but also China's famous "green treasure house".

It is rumored that this is also the place where Shennong's family tasted herbs and discovered tea, and there are many incredible unsolved mysteries here. ”

"Those that cannot be examined, and I am unique here, is a plant called Chrysanthemum, which is located in Longtan, which I will soon reach.

According to it, it looks like an ordinary yellow flower, but it is very fragrant, and it is unique to only Shennongjia, so it is also called Shennongju.

The whole plant (roots, stems, leaves, flowers) of Shennong fragrant chrysanthemum exudes a strong sweet smell, a 16-square-meter house only needs to place a pot, close the doors and windows for a few minutes and then open it, the house is full of fragrance, half not dispersed.

This kind of chrysanthemum is an excellent raw material for making natural flavors, and it can also be eaten.

However, it is really incredible that this peculiar chrysanthemum, when transplanted and cultivated in other places, gradually disappears and the effect is not good. ”

"Also, there have been water monster incidents here, it is reported that near Maoerguan Village, Xinhua Township, Shennongjia, there are 3 large water monsters inhabiting Shenshuitan Zheng

The skin of this water monster is grayish-white, the head is like a huge toad, the two round eyes are bigger than a rice bowl, the nostrils are like two large black holes, the mouth is very long, there are well-developed forelimbs, the shoulders are thick and covered with yellow hair, there are 5 thick fingers on the forelimbs, there are webbing and claws between the fingers, and the mouth will spray water and mist.

It has been found in the Grand Canyon, an extinct primeval forest, that it lives in a deep pool with flowing water, and often the upper body floats on the surface of the water, and the lower body is invisible.

This kind of water monster generally moves in the three seasons of spring, summer and autumn, and in winter it lies dormant in the underwater cave

The local people call it 'Toad', and it looks a bit like a fish, but it has sharp claws on its limbs and hair.

This is really an unheard of monster, and from the point of view of animal taxonomy, what kind of animal should it belong to?

Scientists pointed out that about 700 million years ago, the strata of the 'Shennongjia Group' began to rise from the ocean, and after several ups and downs, it became land about 100 million years ago.

Therefore, from the perspective of geological changes in Shennongjia, in the Paleozoic Era, it was an ocean, and in the Mesozoic Era, it became a low-lying land, full of lakes and swamps, and such an ecological environment provided the possibility for the survival of the descendants of ancient large animals.

So far, the scientific investigation of the Shennongjia Water Monster is still only in a superficial stage, except for the testimony of witnesses and the field investigation of the ecological environment, there is no physical evidence, and the 'Shennongjia Water Monster' is still a question to be explored in depth. ”

As we chatted, the twilight gradually sank.

Chen Fan came to the side of a pine forest at this time, at this time, he was not ready to continue moving forward for the time being, and decided to rest at the edge of this dense forest tonight.

However, as he was about to find a place to rest under a tree, he suddenly saw a long, round, flat leaf standing in front of him.

Search for the memories in your mind, and then watch it climb along the tree, and walk up, this simple root, the long branches, and the clump in the ground.

"Hahaha, everyone, I didn't expect that I was lucky now, and I actually ran into a Poria cocos. ”

"What is Poria cocos, is it the long vine in your hand? ”

"Poria cocos, isn't it Poria cocos?"

"No, Poria cocos is Poria cocos, and Poria cocos is another, and it is a very important medicinal material. ”

Chen Fan elaborated specifically for this: "Poria cocos is also important and important, but it is a white fungus, and my soil poria cocos is mainly used for medicinal purposes in its underground tubers, now I will dig it to show you, and some people call it a wild yam." ”

"After a while, I will dig him up, wash it and boil it directly, just like a potato and sweet potato, which contains a lot of starch, and it is flat and sweet, and it is fine to eat it raw.

It has the effect of detoxification, dampness and joints. This detoxification effect is super powerful, such as syphilis, gonorrhea, and the neutralization and decomposition of the body due to mercury poisoning, which is indispensable to us. ”

Chen Fan did this, and he had already shoveled down part of the wild pickaxe directly.

Because it is in a virgin forest area, and with rains all year round, the vegetation is abundant, and there is fertile and loose humus everywhere.

Just digging down, less than 20 centimeters deep, a chopstick is long, and the tuber will emerge regardless of the size of the child's arm.

"Master Fan, there is still next to it, it seems that there are a lot of you here. ”

The drone scanned everywhere around, and the audience in the live broadcast room patiently reminded.

Chen Fan nodded, this is really the right place, you can pick up so many good things at the edge of the forest.

"Well, you don't know, in our hometown, when there was a hunger and famine in the past, people went up to the mountains to collect these baby bumps, and when they got them back, they could be boiled and eaten directly, or they could be burned and eaten like sweet potatoes, and they were fried in cubes. ”

"This thing, its favorite environment, is a slope that doesn't have a lot of light, with shrubs, or big trees, and their stems and leaves like this long, long tree, so that it can capture the scattered light it needs. ”

In the next half of the hour, Chen Fan was like a groundhog digging holes in the ground, digging a few pits here, and then pulling out several pieces;

He pulled several more pieces there, and he didn't stop until he had enough six or seven pounds.

"Don't dig up this thing, otherwise it will destroy the ecology. I only need a few of the largest tubers, and the others are left in the soil, and when they grow again in the next spring, they will be a large area again. ”

"Hey, you see, there seem to be traces left by rodents here, and this part has been gnawed by rats or bamboo rats, and it can't be eaten. ”

Chen Fan threw down one of the pieces and then continued to explain: "These natural gifts, especially the soil poria, will provide food for the surrounding rats and squirrels. ”

In turn, the activities of rodents can help them spread pollination, or preserve the fruit, killing two birds with one stone. ”
