Episode 145: Cassava, Crisis!
"Tapioca rhizomes?!"
Yes, the white root on the ground is nothing else, it is the rhizome of cassava, Cheng Fei raised his hand, his mind was vigorous, he took it in his hand, and observed it carefully.
The edible part of cassava grows in the ground and will never appear on the ground for no reason.
"Bite marks!"
With just one glance, Cheng Fei saw the intermittent jagged bite marks on the cassava rhizome, and, based on what he had learned from Sun Tu, he quickly made a judgment.
"The bite marks are not very shaped, they are as sharp and neat as serrations, and in general, only ........ can create such uniform bite marks Rats!"
"Rats are not very good at finding food from a distance and bringing it back to their burrows, and they are generally not too far from where the food is, so there must be cassava growing in this area. ”
Thinking of this, Cheng Fei couldn't help but raise his eyes to look around, almost subconsciously, he was about to release his spiritual perception, but only a moment later, he gave up this plan.
Although, after the last breakthrough, his mental power has grown greatly, and he can even fly short distances, but this does not mean that he can squander it at will.
Although the ability is supernatural and powerful, the load it brings is also very huge, even if it is as strong as Cheng Fei, he can't use it at will, or in other words, he hasn't reached the realm where he can use it at will.
For now, he still has to be careful about his calculations, and his frequent use of psychic abilities will make his state drop, and in this dangerous jungle, he must keep himself at the top of his game at all times.
Anyway, through the information left on the cassava rhizome, Cheng Fei can already determine that the location where the cassava grows should be nearby, and he can't waste his mental energy on this.
What's more, abandoning mental power and searching for it through the most basic methods can also play an effective role in exercising, so that the knowledge of survival in the wild that he learned from Sun Tu can get practical opportunities and play his due role. After all, although his telekinesis is good, if he relies too much, if he enters an adventure world where his abilities are restricted and cannot be used, then won't he have to sit on wax?
It's like he chose to give up the visual lens of the body camera and choose to give up the use of telekinesis, and it is for this reason that in the final analysis, the most important thing is to build a good foundation.
In the final analysis, his strength has improved too quickly, the foundation seems to be stable, but it is far from the limit, unless, he gives up part of his potential, otherwise, consolidating the foundation is a path he has to take.
"Strength, it's really an obsessive thing, it seems that my spiritual cultivation is still not enough!"
The corners of his mouth turned up slightly, as if he smiled self-deprecatingly, Cheng Fei thought about it and immediately continued to move towards the east. For him at the moment, the water source is more important, and as for whether he can find cassava, it depends on his luck.
Perhaps, his luck today is really good, just a few dozen meters to the east, a low tree of about two meters came into his eyes, the main pole is only two fingers thick, green leaves, red stems, is exactly the cassava he is looking for. This area, lined with forests, is estimated to have dozens or hundreds of trees together.
"Hah!"
Seeing this, Rao is Cheng Fei couldn't help but chuckle: "It seems that there is no need to worry about food now, at least, it is enough for a short time." ”
Of course, in addition to his good luck, he was able to have such a big harvest, but also related to the environment of this jungle, the unique rainforest season, so that the abundant products here are rich, which is a generous gift from nature.
Striding to the cassava forest, Cheng Fei reached out and grabbed a cassava stalk and prepared to pull it out.
In fact, this cassava pulling is also a technical job, because the rhizome of cassava is very brittle, and if you are not careful, it will cause the fruit in the ground to break due to excessive force, and when the time comes, you have to dig the soil to plan.
If it was the first adventure, Cheng Fei didn't know any cassava at all, and even if the cassava in front of him grew in front of his eyes, he would only think it was an ordinary small tree.
Now, he can easily identify cassava and know how to easily get the fruit buried in the ground.
That's the power of knowledge!
I saw Cheng Fei grabbing the cassava plant, pressing it down, tilting the plant slightly at sixty or seventy degrees, and then gently pulling it up.
Generally speaking, the fruit of wild cassava is far inferior to the fine varieties that have been cultivated artificially, but this rainforest should not be taken lightly, and this cassava plant has several large roots, which is a delight to look at.
"Good guys!"
Rao is Cheng Fei couldn't help but admire, he shook his hand, and with great strength, he shook the soil on the cassava root, and then broke it off and put it into the space ring.
In other words, should he be glad that he can use space equipment in this adventure world, although there are restrictions, but it also gives him considerable convenience.
He pulled out more than twenty plants in a row, harvested hundreds of cassava roots, and then stopped, not because he didn't have enough space for mustard seeds, but because these were enough, after all, he didn't plan to spend three months of adventure just eating cassava, otherwise, he would be too inferior.
Second, this piece of cassava is not easy to grow, and if all of them are dug up, won't they cut off their roots? After all, everything should not be too much, and if it is too much, it will inevitably end early.
After putting the last piece of cassava fruit into the mustard seed space, Cheng Fei immediately embarked on the journey again, continuing eastward in search of possible rivers.
Danger lurks everywhere in the jungle.
For example, the jungle is dense and full of fallen leaves, so it is very easy to get lost, so you should always be aware of your surroundings and make signs and signs.
Rocks in streams are often slippery, so it's best to tie rough rattan ropes to your shoes to increase friction.
Shoes are a must to avoid being bitten by poisonous insects that lurk in the grass and under the leaves.
In the wilderness, insects are very dangerous, don't think that they won't take the initiative to attack humans, the reality is that when people sweat during strenuous exercise, the salt in the sweat will make insects flock to it, and they will bite the sweaty parts of the human body by any means.
As you navigate the jungle, watch out for mosquitoes and leeches, as these creatures will suck your blood, and they carry many viruses that can easily infect their wounds. In contrast, seemingly ferocious poisons like centipedes and scorpions, a bite is painful, but in terms of lethality, it is weak.
In addition to this, those caterpillars are also objects to watch out for, and when encountering such ugly guys, it is best to follow the direction in which they crawl and carefully bounce them away, otherwise once the delicate venom sticks to the skin, it will cause itching, rashes, and even suppuration of the skin in the case of high temperatures........
All in all, walking in the jungle comes with a lot of taboos, and if you don't have to, it's best not to try it lightly if you don't have the knowledge and skills to do so.
People will always make mistakes, some mistakes can be made up, but some mistakes will bring a fatal threat, even life is gone, and it is naturally impossible to make up for mistakes.
Cheng Fei didn't want to make a mistake, especially when he had already been prompted by the mission, this lost jungle was far more dangerous than the primeval forest of the native world, and he had to be vigilant for 120,000 points.
Step by step, Cheng Fei did not walk very quickly, but he was very steady, so as to be able to accurately grasp everything around him, and respond quickly no matter what accidents he encountered.
In this way, he walked forward for more than ten miles, and along the way, he encountered a lot of animals, but they were all ordinary birds and beasts, and there was nothing strange about them.
But that was never a reason for him to let his guard down.
Farther on, the forest suddenly became quiet, and there was no longer a trace of birds and beasts, not even the sound of insects chirping or crawling.
"Quirky. ”
Cheng Fei frowned subconsciously, although he didn't know what this was, but he subconsciously sensed a bad omen.
"Buzz Buzz ........."
Sure enough, it seemed that God was responding to his bad premonition, and at this time, suddenly, a strange sound came into Cheng Fei's ears, and he hurriedly turned his eyes to look at it, and then he was shocked to see a terrifying scene, which came into view!
