"This Podocarpus macrophyllus is a really good thing!" Lin Feng couldn't help but explain after seeing the netizens' comments about it.
"This tree grows slowly, has a long lifespan, and its wood is hard with a particularly beautiful grain. The Podocarpus macrophyllus is evergreen and has a very auspicious meaning. Many wealthy people like to plant it in their yards, saying that it can bring wealth and longevity!"
"Such a large grove of Podocarpus macrophyllus trees must be at least several decades old; they are truly priceless!"
As he spoke, he led the three tiger cubs and Bai Lu and the others deeper into the area.
[System, where's the clue you mentioned? It's not deep in this forest, is it?]
Lin Feng asked himself a question.
[Please explore on your own, host.]
The system's cold voice rang out.
Lin Feng curled his lip; this system was becoming increasingly perfunctory.
He looked up and around; the Podocarpus forest was so vast that it stretched as far as the eye could see.
Moreover, these trees are all about the same height, with dense canopies that block out the sun, making the light dim and somewhat eerie.
"Awoo~"
The tiger cubs seemed to sense Lin Feng's emotions, gently rubbing against his legs and calling out softly.
"Let's just wander around and see what happens!" Lin Feng squatted down and patted the little tigers' heads!
Continuing forward, we suddenly stopped in front of a cliff.
Hidden in a crevice of the cliff was a small house.
The walls of the hut were made of stone, and the roof was thatched; it looked very simple.
Lin Feng exclaimed, "There are actually houses here?! And they're even nestled in a crevice between cliffs!!"
"Let's go inside and take a look," Lin Feng said, leading the three tiger cubs into the house.
Bai Lu stopped him: "Hey, wait a minute, be careful, there might be snakes in here."
Lin Feng patted his chest and said confidently, "Don't worry, I'm here!"
He turned to look at the three tiger cubs: "Besides, there are these three little guys, aren't there? They're expert snake catchers."
The little tiger cubs straightened their chests as they listened to Lin Feng's words, looking like they were all very powerful.
"If you're scared, just wait outside. We'll be out soon!"
"I...I'm not afraid at all!" Bai Lu said stubbornly.
It's just that this little wooden house has been uninhabited for a long time and is a bit eerie!
When Lin Feng arrived at the cabin, he found the door ajar. He gently pushed it open.
A musty smell wafted over, and the small house was pitch black, making it impossible to see anything.
"Cough cough!" Lin Feng fanned the smell around his nose with his hand.
Lin Feng took out his phone, turned on the flashlight, and shone it into the cabin.
"It seems like no one has lived here for a long time."
Bai Lu: "There's dust and cobwebs everywhere here. It must be been there for at least 10 or 20 years!"
The small house contained only a dilapidated wooden bed, a table, and a few chairs; there was no other furniture.
There was a teapot and several cups on the table. The teapot was half full of water, but the water had long since turned into moldy spots.
There were some photos and a full-wall map hanging on the wall.
The photo has yellowed, but you can still vaguely make out that it shows a man and his family.
The map marks different areas of the mountains and forests, and contains some strange symbols.
The photo is captioned "Hu Linguang, 1999".
"This should be the home of Hu Lingguang, the previous generation of forest rangers."
Lin Feng looked at everything before him and said.
"Hu Linguang?" Bai Lu asked, puzzled.
“Yes, but all I know is that he disappeared 20 years ago!” Lin Feng explained.
Lin Feng casually pulled out a drawer.
The musty smell almost killed him.
"Cough cough, what's that smell? It's so strong!"
Bai Lu covered her nose with her sleeve in disgust and waved her hand to shake off the musty smell: "I don't know how long it's been since anyone cleaned this place."
The three little tigers looked around curiously.
Lin Feng found that the room was cluttered with a bunch of miscellaneous items.
There were a few tattered books and a rusty iron box.
He originally thought there would be some inappropriate comic books here!
It turned out that these were all books about plants.
He wanted to slap himself hard!
I told you not to overthink things!
Keep looking for clues!
He flipped through it and found that the pages were yellowed and some parts were even eaten by insects.
"These books are all about methods of plant cultivation."
Then he opened the metal box.
The sealed box contained a stack of photos and several letters.
Lin Feng picked up a photo and found that it was a picture of a young man and a baby black bear.
One hand held the little black bear, while the other gently stroked its head.
The little black bear nestled obediently in the man's arms, looking very affectionate.
Lin Feng smiled as he looked at the photo.
"This must be Hu Linguang when he was young."
Bai Lu also came over to take a look.
"That little black bear is so cute, I wonder how it is now."
"It's been more than 20 years, it's hard to say."
He continued looking through the photos and found that most of them were group photos of Hu Lingguang and his family, while others were photos of him and his colleagues patrolling in the mountains.
Hu Lingguang always has a smile on his face in the photos, and he seems to be a very cheerful person.
Lin Feng opened a letter; the handwriting on it was somewhat blurred.
He examined it carefully and found that the letter was written by a woman, and the words revealed her condemnation and disdain for Hu Linguang!
"Are you out of rice or oil at home? If you can't make money there, come home. Xiao Hai hasn't seen you in a long time! This kid said he misses his dad. I told him that his dad is doing something amazing, and he said that when he grows up, he wants to be a people's hero like his dad!"
