The first few miles into the mountain were better, at least there was no obstacle to walking.

There are often people who go into the mountains to hunt, and there are hunters everywhere who walk through the paths that they have stepped on, and there are veterans like Zhang Shouzhong who lead the way, and Wang Mingyuan walks very smoothly.

He even had time to take in the beautiful scenery of the mountains, admire the exotic flowers and plants among the trees, listen to the crisp and melodious chirping of birds in the branches of the treetops, and hear the roars of some animals from time to time.

This is different from what he saw and heard when he returned to Zhangjiaao to build a bee farm and went into the mountains to explore bees, flowers and plants for the first time.

After all, it is after a lot of repeated prohibition of logging and destruction, hunting and other reasons, after vigorously promoting forest protection and wildlife protection, the forest has been revitalized.

And this barbarism is due to the huge ancient trees and the wide variety of animals and plants that live in them.

Nowadays, many plants and animals are extinct, and many are endangered, and it is difficult to see them.

Further into the mountains, the trees became more and more lush, and large trees with several people hugging each other could be seen everywhere, and the arm-thick vines in the middle were entangled, growing so that there was almost no sign of human activity.

Even though the sun was shining, the forest was still very dark and damp.

During the passage of the group, from time to time you will see the surrounding bushes or weeds suddenly shake, and in the sound of swishing, some animals are startled, and Wang Mingyuan has not even had time to see clearly, so he disappeared into the forest at a very fast speed.

Many colorful birds were startled, flapping their wings and screaming farther away.

There are also some extremely agile animals that leap through the treetops.

In Wang Mingyuan's eyes, everything is so novel and lively.

It's not like he went into the mountains for most of the day in 2023, and he only encountered two wild boars, and the others were almost gone.

Of course, there are some animals that are more stupid.

For example, Wang Mingyuan saw a muntjac, and when he saw people coming, he still had some fresh branches and leaves in his mouth, and looked at several people motionlessly, until they were all very close, Zhang Shouzhong couldn't help but pick up the gun, and it suddenly jumped away from Lao Gao.

Wang Mingyuan was even when he was walking, when he saw a small gray hare the size of a palm in the grass, motionless with his ears drooping and shrinking, and people walked in front of it without the slightest reaction, and even his eyes never moved, so that Wang Mingyuan couldn't help but ask Zhang Shouzhong: "Is this rabbit dead?" ”

Zhang Shouzhong and the others smiled and asked Wang Mingyuan to catch it himself.

Wang Mingyuan looked at the rabbit that was still motionless, and reached out to catch it, who knows, at this moment, the rabbit fled very quickly, causing everyone to laugh.

Only then did Wang Mingyuan know that he had been deceived by the cuteness of a little rabbit cub.

The rabbit is too small, and Zhang Shouzhong and others can't look down on it at all.

A little further on, there is no way to go any further.

The denser trees are full of thorns, vines, and weeds, and they cannot travel without cutting them with machetes.

The air in the forest became very humid and dull, and what surprised Wang Mingyuan even more was that unconsciously, there was an itch and pain in his legs, and when he rolled up his trousers, he was startled.

On both feet, at some point, more than a dozen locusts have climbed up, frantically sucking his blood.

After Zhang Shouzhong's help for a while, it was not easy to clear these locusts.

Only then did Wang Mingyuan know that not all locusts live in water.

The people he asked Zhangjiaao to arrest who lived in the water were called leeches, and there was also a name in medicine, called medical leeches.

Now he is confronted with another species, called the Dry Locust, which lives in a damp place among the dead leaves and weeds among the trees.

Under the guidance of Zhang Shouzhong and others, Wang Mingyuan discovered which weeds and branches and leaves, often see a lot of slender slimy grasshoppers clinging to them, fixing their bodies with a suction cup at one end, and lifting the other end, stretching and shrinking, which is very weird.

These grasshoppers seem to be very sensitive to temperature, and with a slight flick of their fingers in front of them, they can quickly stretch their bodies and climb up.

Terror!

"When walking in this kind of forest, you must pay special attention to three things, locusts, ants and wasps, commonly known as three horses. You have seen the grasshopper, this thing can go up at any time, walk in the woods, have a stick in your hand at any time, flapping around, and tie the cuffs and trouser legs tightly, which can effectively prevent the bite of the drought locust, and must be checked and cleaned at any time.

Although the locusts will fall on their own when they are full of blood, there are too many locusts, how much blood can a person have for them to feed? The point is where they bite, the wound often bleeds non-stop, and it is very troublesome.

As for ants, some of them are very poisonous, and there is a kind of very small red ants, tens of thousands, crawling everywhere in the forest, if they crawl over the body, or bite, the toxicity emitted can leave a red mark on your body, as if it has been burned by fire, hot, very uncomfortable.

And then there's the hornet.

Now the season is still early, and after a while, you can see all kinds of wasps everywhere in the treetops, tree holes, and soil layers, the big ones can be the size of an index finger, and the small ones are smaller than bees, but without exception, they are very poisonous, and once they are provoked, they can easily kill if they fail to avoid it in time.

Like the largest wasps, it is said that three of them can sting a large buffalo with thick skin and thick flesh, let alone a human.

Among them, the most troublesome is the Seven Mile Bee.

This kind of bee is the most difficult, usually build a nest in the tree, particularly strong, even can be as big as a dustpan, there are thousands of bees living in it, if the branch of their nest is shaken, immediately there are countless bees falling and striking down, it is simply outflanked by land and air, can chase people alive and run out of seven miles, very dangerous. ”

Zhang Shouzhong deliberately stepped back a few positions and walked side by side with Wang Mingyuan.

He could see that Wang Mingyuan didn't know much about the common sense in the mountains, and while slapping the grass and trees along the road with a stick, he explained to Wang Mingyuan, and by the way, told him some precautions, or how to deal with dangerous situations.

Wang Mingyuan was terrified when he heard this.

He only now realizes that this is the real primeval forest.

Under the beautiful scenery, there are all kinds of novelties, but at the same time, there are too many hidden dangers.

Even insects, in addition to the three things mentioned by Zhang Shouzhong, such as locusts, ants, and wasps, there are also highly poisonous creatures such as centipedes and scorpions, which are also difficult to prevent.

Not to mention dangerous beasts such as pythons, jackals, wolves, bears and leopards.

There are even many highly toxic plants, which may be contaminated with some slurry, which will be very deadly.

Wildness, as often represented, is more of a danger.

Even an experienced hunter would not dare to enter the mountain alone.

In this kind of primeval forest, it is difficult to survive without rich jungle survival experience and extraordinary physique.

You know, even the miasma emitted by the decaying substances in certain swamps and jungles, if inhaled in excess, can become very dangerous, especially those miasma containing hallucinogenic toxins, so that you get lost in the forest and don't know when you hang up.

As soon as Zhang Shouzhong talked about this, the rest of the people also listened carefully, and they were also very enthusiastic about supplementing the explanation.

Wang Mingyuan knows very well that the experience and common sense that these people say casually don't look like a joke sometimes, but it is a life-saving trick at a critical moment.

He listened very carefully, and many things were firmly in his heart.

He also knew that for a long time, he had to take the initiative to learn more jungle survival knowledge from Zhang Shouzhong and others, including some emergency treatment and herbal medicine.

This includes some home remedies that science cannot prove to be plausible, but they do work wonders.

The wisdom of the people has always been a huge treasure trove of unlimited potential!
