Su Nian stretched out her hand to diagnose diseases and could detect simple ingredients in ordinary plants. She had already explored the ingredients inside when she was digging orchids.
"Orchids contain a large amount of heavy metal ions, Beichen, I think this thing is related to the water pollution in this area!" Su Nian stated his conclusion and saw Chu Beichen's face change.
"Su Nian, I understand," Chu Beichen reached out and took the orchid from Su Nian's hand. "The water pollution this time must be related to someone digging up a large number of orchids!"
Su Nian nodded. She had the same feeling, but she couldn't figure out what the connection was between the two.
It was almost noon at this time, and the uninvited guests had not returned. It was estimated that their main task was to dig orchids, so even if they discovered Su Nian and his group's temporary campsite, they did not pay much attention to it.
Chu Beichen and Su Nian returned to the tent, took out professional equipment, and began to test the plants.
Su Nian had previously discovered that plants contained large amounts of heavy metal ions. After testing with specialized equipment, she discovered that the concentration of heavy metal ions in plants reached an astonishing 1%!
"Beichen! If you collect a lot of orchids, you can directly extract heavy metals!" Su Nian came to such a conclusion and found it incredible.
"Su Nian, do you know what this heavy metal is called? What are its uses?" Chu Beichen asked Su Nian hurriedly.
Su Nian smiled and said, "This is a new metal. It doesn't have a name yet. The organization that discovered it gave it the code name 106!"
There used to be a custom that every time a new metal was discovered, the name of the discoverer would be used as the name of the new metal.
Later, as the use of metals became more and more widespread, the channels for discovering metals also increased. Many metals were not discovered by one person, but by a research group or laboratory. At this time, numbers would be used as the names of the metals.
106 was discovered accidentally by a laboratory while researching drugs. Everyone originally thought that this metal was an artificial synthetic product.
Later, after this metal was included in the sample, it was discovered that there was actually a lot of 106 in nature. This shows that 106 is a naturally formed metal, not a synthetic product as everyone has always believed.
"As for the purpose of 106, I don't know," Su Nian thought for a moment before adding, "Let's ask Sha Qilin when he comes back. I remember that 106 is something that private research and development is prohibited!"
The two made great achievements today. After reaching a preliminary conclusion, they sorted and preserved the orchids according to the requirements for collecting specimens.
When Sha Qilin and others came back, Su Nian and Chu Beichen had already processed the game they had hunted and were stewing it in the soil for baking.
Everyone has been busy all day, and eating is the most important thing at this moment. They don’t have time to share their gains with each other, but start eating first.
Su Nian used an iron shovel to dig out a few lumps of mud from the ground. After knocking them open, white and tender roasted chicken and roasted rabbit appeared inside.
"It's actually beggar's chicken! You two are amazing. You can even make something like this!"
Sha Qilin is actually a foodie. When he saw the tender white chicken and smelled the mouth-watering aroma, he couldn't help but whet his appetite.
Chu Beichen was good at hunting and fishing, and he had the right tools with him, so after studying the plants, he caught a lot of wild animals in a short time. Now he roasted them all. Even if they were divided per person, each person could get two or three barbecues.
