Chapter 5: Ginseng Found



"I know this snake, the five-step snake, also known as the hundred-legged snake. Although it's just a legend that you'll die after taking five steps, if you're bitten by this snake, you'll usually die within two hours. Its venom is extremely potent!"

Shen Xuan kept his eyes fixed on the five-step snake, but he continued to explain the scientific facts.

"What the heck? What time is it? You're still talking about this kind of science."

"Hey streamer, get your act together! Start thinking about how to escape!"

"Don't move. This kind of snake is very aggressive. The more you run, the more likely it is to attack you."

...

The viewers in the live stream were speechless. The streamer was being targeted by a five-step snake, and he still had the energy to explain it to the viewers. How big of a nerve does he have!

"Don't panic, I brought my tools this time!"

Shen Xuan slowly pulled a stick out of the basket with one hand, and Da Huang, seeing this action, understood his master's intention.

"Woof woof woof..."

A loud roar suddenly came, and the five-step snake was clearly startled, shrinking its head back.

Big Yellow may not have many other skills, but it does have the ability to distract and scare snakes.

Now!

Shen Xuan took the long stick and began to smash it repeatedly in the direction of the five-step snake.

"Ah...I'll beat you to death!"

As Shen Xuan continued to hit, he also shouted.

They slapped it for a full two minutes until the snake was killed; its head was smashed beyond recognition.

“Huff…”

Shen Xuan breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that the snake had stopped moving, panting heavily.

I must say, it was very dangerous just now. That was a highly venomous five-step snake. If someone had been bitten, in a remote mountain village like Stone Village, it would probably have taken at least two hours to get to the hospital, and Shen Xuan would probably be dead by then.

The viewers in the live stream witnessed Shen Xuan's series of actions firsthand.

Wow, Brother Xuan is awesome!

"Good heavens, I thought Brother Xuan had it all figured out, but who knew he'd mess it up like this too!"

"He was calmly explaining the science just now, but now that he's actually doing it, he's panicking like crazy!"

"I'm on my knees! Brother Xuan is really amazing!"

"A grown man, scared like this by a snake, has no backbone at all!"

"User Qingyun Fairy gifted the streamer ten rockets!"

"User Salty Fish Prince gifted the streamer an airplane!"

...

The live stream room suddenly became incredibly lively, with the number of comments increasing several times over, and a flood of airplane and rocket messages appearing all at once.

"Thank you for the rocket from Fairy Qingyun, thank you for the airplane from Prince Salty Fish, thank you... thank you!"

After recovering, Shen Xuan quickly thanked the viewers who sent gifts, then looked at the comments and smiled wryly.

"I'm just an ordinary person. That's a five-step snake, extremely venomous. If I get bitten, I'm done for. How could I not be scared?"

This is also why Shen Xuan was afraid just now!

When faced with danger, who wouldn't back down?

After all, he was just an ordinary person who had recently graduated from university!

"That's right, the anchor is right!"

"The anchor was very brave just now. If it were you, you would probably have wet your pants from fear."

"Some people are just keyboard warriors, the streamer doesn't need to pay attention to them."

...

The viewers in the live stream immediately offered words of comfort.

Shen Xuan thanked him a few times, then stood up, walked to the body of the five-step snake, and said, "This snake is actually a good thing. You can eat snake meat and snake gall can improve eyesight, but I'm afraid of snakes, so I don't dare to eat it. Let's just dig a hole and bury it!"

After saying that, he took a hoe and dug a small pit next to him, then swept the five-step snake's corpse into it.

"666, Brother Xuan is really kind."

"I admire you, this is a truly good person."

"Brother Xuan, aren't you good at communicating with animals? Why didn't you communicate with the five-step snake just now?"

"Yes, that's the same question I was just about to ask!"

...

Shen Xuan glanced at the live stream and saw other people asking questions, so he began to explain.

"It's true that I can communicate with animals in a rudimentary way, but it depends on the animal!"

Shen Xuan patiently explained, "Dahuang is my pet. We spend every day together, so there's no problem communicating with it. As for Daxiong, it's because it wants food, and I can give it to it. There's a mutual benefit involved."

"But this five-step snake is venomous to the core. It's like a rose with thorns. If you try to pick it, you'll most likely get pricked. If I try to communicate with a five-step snake, I'll probably die before we even finish communicating."

Upon hearing this explanation, the viewers in the live stream all understood.

"Brother Xuan is awesome!"

"Brother Xuan is right. You can't communicate with animals that are full of poison."

"Your life is the most important thing; you can't act recklessly."

...

After burying the five-step snake's body, Shen Xuan began searching the surrounding area.

"Now it's Brother Xuan's time for a science lesson, everyone take notes!"

Shen Xuan suddenly said seriously, "I think we're about to find something good."

Upon hearing this, the viewers in the live stream became curious.

nice one?

Are you that confident?

"I don't believe it. If Brother Xuan is so confident, just wait until he's proven wrong!"

"The more confident you are, the more likely you are to be proven wrong."

"Who is Brother Xuan? He always keeps his word!"

"Who gave you the courage to make such boastful remarks? Was it Fish Leong?"

...

A barrage of sarcastic comments flooded the screen, none of them believing that Shen Xuan could find something good in such a short time.

Shen Xuan didn't explain, but patiently searched in the surrounding grass, carefully poking at the weeds with a stick.

Finally, they found a plant in a small pit that was completely different from the surrounding plants.

Ginseng!

Shen Xuan studied agricultural science in university, so he has a deep understanding of the appearance of this rare medicinal herb.

He squatted down and carefully moved the clods of soil with his hands, afraid of damaging the ginseng.

"Wow, I actually found something good!"

"It looks like a small ginseng."

"My God, Brother Xuan is amazing! How did he know there was ginseng here?"

...

As Shen Xuan became more and more careful, a small ginseng plant appeared in the live stream, causing the audience to erupt in excitement. Everyone was curious about how Shen Xuan was so certain that there was a ginseng plant nearby.

"Don't worry, let me dig out the ginseng and then I'll explain it to you!"

Shen Xuan smiled and said something, then continued to turn over the soil, carefully removing all the soil around the ginseng, and then pulled the entire ginseng out.

I held it in my hand and examined it carefully. It was a ginseng root about the thickness of two fingers, with many fibrous roots.

"Tell us quickly, how did you know there was ginseng here?"

"That's right, we're all waiting, stop keeping us in suspense!"

"First, send an airplane, then we'll wait for your answer."

"User Xiaodaidai gifted the streamer an airplane!"

...

Immediately, another wave of gift-giving swept through the live stream, with everyone urging Shen Xuan to answer the question he had just asked.
