The deep part of Laoniugou is covered with dense vegetation, and towering trees that are dozens or even hundreds of years old can be seen everywhere. A stream flows slowly in the forest. Xu Jianguo walked along the winding path beside the stream into the depths of the dense forest, scanning the surroundings with his eyes, on the one hand to look for medicinal herbs, and on the other hand to be alert to the animals in the forest.
After walking for a while, Xu Jianguo found that the deeper he went into the forest, the higher the temperature became. He was already feeling very hot even in his thick cotton-padded jacket. He estimated that the temperature here was at least seven or eight degrees higher than that in the cave.
After taking off his cotton jacket and putting it into the space, Xu Jianguo continued to move forward. When he walked around a big tree, a tree-like plant that appeared in front of him caught Xu Jianguo's attention.
The leaves of this plant are very similar to those of ordinary jujube trees. They are oval in shape and have three obvious veins on them. But the difference is that the leaves of this plant are much larger than those of jujube trees. There are many fruits on the tree. The fruits look very strange, a bit like tangled branches, and a bit like twisted chicken feet. Through the medical knowledge rewarded by the system, Xu Jianguo knows that although this thing looks a bit ugly, it is a real good thing.
Jujube, also known as Hovenia dulcis, can be eaten raw, made into wine or sugar. Traditional Chinese medicine often uses jujube to make medicinal wine, which can treat rheumatic joint pain with significant effects.
Moreover, the seeds of the jujube are also a very good cooling diuretic, which can be used to treat fever, thirst, drunkenness, thirst, vomiting and fever.
Logically speaking, the fruiting period of the jujube should be from August to October every year, and it is impossible to appear in winter. Xu Jianguo speculated that this may be related to the unique geographical environment and temperature of Laoniugou.
Without any delay, Xu Jianguo took the whole jujube tree in front of him into the space and planted it in the open space of the space farm.
Xu Jianguo continued to walk forward. When he passed a large rock covered with moss, he glanced at it inadvertently and was stunned. It was a Ganoderma lucidum, a very large one. The diameter was estimated to be more than 20 centimeters.
Xu Jianguo walked over quickly and squatted on the ground to observe it carefully. The black and shiny umbrella cap and brown umbrella handle all indicated that this was a high-quality wood Ganoderma lucidum with a long history.
Just when he was about to reach out and touch the Ganoderma lucidum, a white shadow suddenly jumped out from the grass next to it.
Xu Jianguo was shocked and used Taiyi Youlong Bu to dodge. When he looked closely, he found that the one attacking him was a small snow-white snake.
The white snake was about ten centimeters long, and only its eyes were black. At this moment, it was raising its head high and staring at Xu Jianguo, its eyes full of vigilance.
Xu Jianguo had heard people say before that there were usually guardian beasts near some rare or old medicinal herbs. He thought that this white snake was the guardian beast of the Ganoderma lucidum.
He looked at the Ganoderma lucidum not far away, then looked at the little white snake blocking the Ganoderma lucidum. After estimating the distance, Xu Jianguo came up with a plan.
After the last upgrade, the collection range of the portable space has been increased to within eight square meters, and now the distance between the Ganoderma lucidum and him is only seven meters at most, so he plans to directly store the Ganoderma lucidum into the space to avoid conflict with the little white snake.
Just do it!
Xu Jianguo had an idea and collected the Ganoderma lucidum and the nearby soil into the space and planted it under the jujube tree.
At the moment when the Ganoderma lucidum disappeared, the little white snake seemed to sense something and looked back suddenly. When it found that the Ganoderma lucidum it was guarding had disappeared, it rushed over in an instant.
Xu Jianguo only saw a white shadow flash by, and in the blink of an eye the little white snake came to the place where the Ganoderma lucidum was before, but there was no trace of Ganoderma lucidum there now, only a small earth pit.
The little white snake swam back and forth around the pit, raising its head and spitting out its tongue from time to time. After a moment, the little white snake lowered its head as if accepting its fate, crawled into the pit, curled up its body, and no longer paid attention to Xu Jianguo.
Xu Jianguo looked at the little white snake in disbelief, not knowing if it was an illusion. He could actually feel the deep sadness emanating from the little white snake, as if there was no greater sorrow than a dead heart.
"Could this guy have become a spirit? Isn't it just a Ganoderma lucidum? Is it necessary to be like this?" Xu Jianguo muttered to the side.
Without paying any more attention to the little white snake, Xu Jianguo turned around and wanted to leave. As everyone knows, Ganoderma lucidum reproduces through spores. The presence of such a large Ganoderma lucidum here means that there may be other Ganoderma lucidums nearby. It was almost dark, and he had to find them as soon as possible.
So, Xu Jianguo slowly circled around the place where the previous Ganoderma lucidum was, and sure enough, he found four more Ganoderma lucidum. Compared with the first one, these four Ganoderma lucidum were much smaller in size and age, but despite this, they were still top-quality wild wood Ganoderma lucidum with extremely high medicinal value.
After putting the four Ganoderma lucidum into the space and thinking for a while, Xu Jianguo also collected some trees and stones growing near the Ganoderma lucidum into the space. He wanted to restore the previous growth environment of the Ganoderma lucidum as much as possible.
After doing everything, Xu Jianguo looked at the little white snake again, only to see that it was still curled up in the pit without moving. He felt a little bit reluctant, thinking that since he had collected the trees and stones, he wouldn't need this little snake either. So Xu Jianguo thought again and collected the little white snake into the space.
The sudden change frightened the little white snake. It raised its head in horror and looked around. Suddenly, it found that the Ganoderma lucidum it had been guarding for many years appeared not far away. A look of surprise suddenly appeared in its eyes, and it swam over quickly.
Xu Jianguo entered the space and stood not far away watching the scene in front of him. He saw the little white snake come under the umbrella of Ganoderma lucidum and spin around happily. Finally, it coiled its body around the umbrella handle, and looked at Xu Jianguo with a pair of bright little eyes. At this moment, Xu Jianguo even felt a hint of kindness from the little white snake towards him.
"It's true that all things have spirits!" Xu Jianguo thought to himself. He planned the place where the Ganoderma lucidum was located into a medicinal garden, set up a space fence to prohibit entry and exit, then went to the courtyard to add some dog food to Xiao Hei, and after explaining things to Gu Mingqi and others, he left the space.
After looking at the sky, Xu Jianguo did not delay and walked back the way he came.
Just as Xu Jianguo was about to walk out of the dense forest shrouded in thick fog, a towering tree not far away caught his attention.
This big tree is about sixty or seventy meters high and about four meters in diameter. It is unknown what species it is. What caught Xu Jianguo's attention was a huge tree hole at the bottom of the tree. When he passed by just now, he inadvertently discovered that there seemed to be something inside.
Xu Jianguo slowly approached the big tree and looked into the tree hole. However, when he saw what was inside, he was shocked. The thing in the tree hole was actually a human skeleton.
