As the mother river of the people of the Great Zhou, the Emerald River flows continuously, sometimes gentle, sometimes violent, in these long years. When the pen is gentle www.biquge.info, it is like a silky silk, and when it is furious, it is like an angry yellow dragon. The raging Emerald River has brought countless disasters, but relatively speaking, there are more quiet times, whenever the Emerald River becomes verdant, it will always bring incomparably fertile soil, so that the people of the Great Zhou can be nurtured, multiply from generation to generation, and establish a prosperous civilization.

And this forest is called the Emerald Forest, if the Emerald River is the mother's milk of the people of the Great Zhou, then the Emerald Forest can definitely be regarded as the granary of the people of the Great Zhou.

The jade forest covers an extremely wide area, starting from Lishan of the Jiuyu Dynasty in the east, connecting the oasis of the Great Zhou Dynasty in the west, reaching the edge of the Dayi Dynasty in the south, spanning the 27 mansions of the Three Kingdoms, with a radius of more than 8,000 miles. Because the forest is emerald green all year round, whether it is spring, summer, autumn or winter, hence its name. The most important thing is that there are almost endless forest resources, wild animal resources, demon beast resources, medicinal plant resources, mineral resources, and even the legendary genius treasures.

Of course, Li Yingqi told Tang Ze that before entering the forest, Tang Ze asked her where they were now, and the girl said that she didn't know where this was, only that this was the Emerald Forest, and then pointed out the four directions to him. Then she took some time to explain to Tang Ze some of the information she knew, and the content was just some of the things she had heard inadvertently in her daily life, and it was still very general news. For example, there are 365 days in a year, and there are 12 hours in a day, such as the three major dynasties around the Great Zhou Dynasty and so on.

Although the information Li Yingqi said was not helpful to their current situation at all, for Tang Ze's current situation, these common senses of life could not be more important, and a lot of useful information could already be deduced.

At this time, the sun had quietly moved to the west.

The two of them chatted as they walked into the forest.

Tang Ze's first impression of this forest was that it was "big". The trees here were all very tall and stout, at least as far as Tang Ze could see.

Most of the trees in this area are of the same species, somewhat similar to the Wangtian trees on the earth, Tang Ze secretly contrasted in his heart, their similarity can be at least more than 90%, but the ones here are much larger and much higher.

How tall is it? Each tree is almost 150 meters tall, almost as tall as a 50-story building. In some places, there are even groups of trees 200 meters tall, and each tree is more than 3 meters in diameter. The canopy of these trees is so dense that it almost completely obscures the sky, and only sporadic sunlight can penetrate through the dense foliage overhead, so that the forest floor appears a little dark.

According to Li Yingqi, when she was young, his grandfather used to tell her stories about the Emerald Forest. The story is that once upon a time, there was still a vast grassland, and there were not as many forests as there are now, and the trees were not as tall as they are now. There are a large number of nomadic tribes in the grasslands, the most powerful of which is the 'Xinghai Clan', which later angered the immortals for some reason, and the immortals sent down thunder to destroy them. However, the Xinghai clan was not afraid, but united many tribes on the grassland to form a coalition to fight the immortals together, and finally died with the immortals. And the energy left over from their battle turned into this forest.

Tang Ze naturally didn't believe it at first, and then Li Yingqi gave a bunch of examples to try to convince him. For example, the Great Zhou Dynasty alone has a population of more than 400 million, of which at least 200 million people rely on the jade forest to eat, 200 million people have a great demand for trees, houses, furniture, chopsticks, papermaking, burning, etc., almost all life needs to use trees, and the most famous export goods in the jade forest area are all kinds of high-quality wood or all kinds of wood products. The demand of so many people has led to the cutting down of a large number of trees every year, and after so many years of felling, the trees in the Emerald Forest show no signs of decreasing. What's even stranger is that once plants enter the Emerald Forest area, whether they are trees or flowers, they will grow more than ten times faster than the outside world, and they will grow at this rate all year round. Although the trees in the Emerald Forest grow at such an astonishing rate, they do not spread to the outside world, nor do they affect the outside world, as if there is some special restriction. For example, the plants in the Hetao area on the border of the Emerald Forest grow at a normal rate.

Tang Ze was suspicious of the letter at this time, and he immediately had a huge curiosity about the Emerald Forest. The evergreen primeval forests all year round, the demon beasts, the genius earth treasures, and the land that can make plants grow quickly, all of these have a great attraction to Tang Ze, and he can't wait to immediately form a scientific research team to come here to investigate and study carefully.

However, the constant "gurgling" sound in his stomach forced him to deal with the problem at hand, that is, to quickly collect firewood so that he could go back to grill fish.

It is a dense primeval forest, and there is no trace of human beings except wild beasts. There were a lot of dead branches and leaves on the ground, so the two of them only entered the forest for a hundred or ten meters, and easily picked up a lot of dry firewood and leaves for starting the fire, gathered together a large pile, and tied them with vines. After doing all this, the two of them planned to see if there were any wild fruits and other things that could satisfy their stomachs nearby, after all, those few small fish were not enough for the two of them to eat, and at the same time explored the way by the way.

Then the two of them continued deeper into the forest, traveling a distance of two or three hundred meters, and then found a swampy area.

This is not a strange thing, in fact most of the primeval forests have swampy areas on the ground. A large number of fallen leaves and decaying trees are piled up together to form a swamp, and I don't know how many hundred or thousand years of swamps have been piled up, during which miasma, poisons, insects, etc. thrive in these places, and if you are not careful, you may not be able to see the bottom when you step on it.

Of course, there are swamps and normally dry ground, and the emerald forest is located in a geomorphological environment depending on the terrain and plant species. Just like the woods in front of you, the swamp area is relatively rare, and such areas are the most suitable for walking, so if you are careful, there will be no accidents. The entire Emerald Forest is actually occupied by three landforms: swampy landforms, wet landforms, and dry landforms.

Tang Ze had previously carried out expeditions in the Amazon, and he had a lot of experience in living in the jungle, so he discovered the swamp covered with leaves in advance, and then Li Yingqi also said that she sensed the existence of danger. The two had to cautiously retreat and continue their search in the other direction. This time, the two of them had only advanced more than a hundred meters before they made a new discovery, and they almost simultaneously heard some subtle movements from behind the small hill in front of them, which was more than a hundred meters in front. Tang Ze's heart moved, he could hear the sound of some kind of animal stepping on fallen leaves, after all, he didn't know the biological system of this world, and he couldn't hear what kind of animal it was. However, listening to the intensity of the sound, it should not be a large animal, and the danger should not be great.

For the sake of safety, Tang Ze immediately signaled Li Yingqi to slow down and quietly go up to check the movement first. Then he sneaked towards the small hill first, and at the same time subconsciously did a few tactical sign languages.

He walked to the bottom of the hill with small steps, then fell to the ground, and slowly climbed forward with alternating hands. The whole set of movements is smooth and pleasing to the eye, and there is not the slightest sound in between.

Li Yingqi looked at Tang Ze's series of strange movements and was simply stunned. She had sensed the existence of two animals behind the small hill, and she was overjoyed, and she just wanted to get up and grab them all, and then she saw the scene in front of her, and she showed a puzzled look in her eyes, and opened her mouth slightly to say something, but in the end she sighed, stopped, and floated to follow.
