Chapter 22: Returning Home
"Redeemed for simple botanical knowledge."
"Name: Gu Guo

Unlocked Knowledge: Simple Botany Knowledge (0% Progress)"
"Huh? How come there is no feeling of initiation? ”
Gu Guo took out the barnyard grass plants he had collected earlier and put them in front of him, and the imaginary system reading did not jump out.
"What's going on? 0% of your learning progress? I still need to learn the knowledge I have earned through my hard work and contribution points?!! ”
Gu Guo stared blankly at the slightly yellow barnyard grass in his hand, and the whole person was stupid.
I can't say that the system is very pitted, it's a pit!!
Gu Guo scolded the eighteenth generation of the ancestors of the system in his heart, and he didn't bring the same thing for five minutes.
"Ding! Simple botanical knowledge has been distributed. ”
"Typography according to the taxonomy of the traverser's past life, please wait."
"Typesetting complete, please review."
Subsequently, in the unlocked knowledge column on Gu Guo's personal attribute panel, there was an icon of barnyard grass.
He clicked in and found that this was a file similar to pdf format, with 3070 pages, each page is a brief introduction to a plant, and there are four categories in the classification, including 2359 pages of seed plants, 377 pages of ferns, 158 pages of bryophytes, and 176 pages of algae plants.
Underneath the icon, there is also a small string of text.
"Neolithic humans have known the invaluable wealth of plants."
Gu Guo was a little unclear about this sentence, and seemed to be describing that this botanical knowledge was the limit of human cognition of plants on this planet in the Neolithic Age.
"Human, so strong!" Gu sighed in his heart, as a modern person, he could recognize hundreds of the 300,000 species of plants on the earth, but he didn't expect that the collection of plants recognized by primitive people in the Neolithic Age could exceed 3,000.
"Seed plant phylum, angiosperm subphylum, monocotyledons, grasses, grasses, wheat family, wheat genus, nameless plant 01, nameless plant 02."
After spending a few minutes flipping through the botanical knowledge, Gu Guo finally found two pictures of plants that looked about the same as the barnyard grass in his hand in a large number of classifications.
Wheat family, wheat genus?
Is this really the ancestor of wheat?
It's just that the two plants he found are all unnamed, and the pictures that come with them are similar to the barnyard grass in his hand, and I don't know if it's 01 or 02.
"Nameless Plant 01:
[Picture]
[Picture]
[Picture]
Morphological characteristics: annual or perennial herbs. Pole upright......
Distribution: Unknown
Growth environment: deep soil, not suitable for sandy soil, clay soil......
Main value: Edible without shelling, sweet in taste. ”
"Nameless Plant 02:
[Picture]
[Picture]
[Picture]
Morphological characteristics: rod erect, clumped......
Distribution: Unknown
Growth environment: deep soil, not suitable for sandy soil, clay soil......
Main value: Edible after hulling, slightly bitter in taste. ”
Recalling Hua's evaluation of barnyard grass, Gu Guo also peeled a few and tasted it, it was indeed a little bitter, but it was still within the acceptable range, it seemed that this thing was a nameless plant 02.
"Ding! Is it named for the nameless plant 02? ”
"Since it is bitter, then call it bitter wheat!"
"The naming is complete, please check it out."
Gu Guo hastily flipped through some edible plants that he had seen at this time, and named them one by one, and those that were similar to the earth in his previous life were directly applied. Those he hadn't seen or had forgotten their names were named according to their shapes.
By the time the learning progress reached 1.7%, it was already a day.
As the return of the tribal gatherings approached, the young men and women of the tribes had completed their mission of racial reproduction and gathered together to say goodbye to each other.
......
On the bank of the Jishui River, Xiao Feng held a pottery bowl with a translucent body, the edge of this pottery bowl has a perfect arc, and the surface is smooth as jade, like a piece of red glass.
She looked at the reeds swaying in the evening breeze, the last place where her brother's figure disappeared.
Hongmei picked her up from behind Xiao Feng, lifted her fine hair in the breeze, and whispered in Xiao Feng's ear: "Your brother is a person favored by his ancestors, he will definitely return safely." Xiao Feng, let's go back and drink broth in this clay bowl! ”
Xiao Feng grabbed the pottery bowl and cried, the child's emotions are always pure, and the longing for Gu Guo in his heart is better than the new gadgets made by this red plum.
Hongmei took the pottery bowl in Xiao Feng's hand, wrapped it in animal skin and put it in her arms, she took out a few fruits from the bamboo basket on her back and stuffed them into Xiao Feng's meaty little mouth.
"Auntie and you will wait, and we will go back until it is almost dark."
In the lower reaches of Jishui, Gu Guo and his party were returning along the road they had come. Because they had taken the people of the Licorice and Sophora tribes to the copper mines to extract some ore, they returned two days later than originally planned.
Coupled with the more than a dozen wounded of the two tribes, the movement of a group of people was even slower.
Two seriously injured people failed to survive the call of the ghost gate, and their souls returned to the west under the high fever of talking nonsense, but the dead were gone, and the living were gone.
After Gu Guo obtained simple botany, he found many plants that could reduce inflammation and stop bleeding, picked some on the way back, mashed them with stones, and cooked them in clay pots and fed them to the wounded.
The high fever of the seriously wounded has basically subsided, and they are able to drink the boiled meat foam, while the condition of the lightly wounded is better, as long as the injury is not in the leg, they can barely keep up with the pace of the team.
After this trip, Gu Guo not only promoted new objects such as currency and pottery, but also obtained the basic plant information on the planet from the system, and the pre-emptive point of farming was almost full, plus more than 200 people brought back nearly a ton of copper ore, and all kinds of metal farm tools used for land reclamation would no longer worry about raw materials.
Turning around a dense reed, Gu Guo, who was walking in front, was the first to see two figures, one large and one small, not far away, looking towards this side, he raised his right hand and waved. I saw that the villain broke free from the adult's embrace and ran in the direction of the team.
"Brother!"
The little girl cried so much that she buried her head in Gu Guo's stomach, and her tears wet the animal skin clothes.
"I thought you were deceived by women from other tribes, woowoo...... Why did you come back......"
"Aunt Hongmei, she burned the glaze on the pottery!"
Xiao Feng rubbed against Gu Guo's body, Gu Guo took advantage of the situation to hold his sister to his chest, the little girl wrapped her neck around him, and found that behind her brother, a group of people followed.
Hongmei stepped forward and took out the pottery bowl wrapped in animal skins, and she asked with some trepidation: "Goo, is this bright thing glaze?" ”
Gu Guo took the pottery bowl, only to see that the surface of the pottery bowl was smooth and translucent, and the red pottery blank was covered with a layer of faint blue-gray transparent substance, like glass turned into after sand melted.
"Well, this is the use of ......" In Gu Guo's impression, quartz seems to be used in the glaze, but the color of this glaze is not like the color of quartz.
"It's the ashes left over from the fire!" Hongmei followed the team and said, "The night before you left, I saw that you soaked a lot of ash in a clay pot, so I tried to apply the water mixed with ash on the clay pot and put it in the kiln to burn it again, but I didn't expect it to happen!" ”
