Chapter 84 This is actually a ginseng den!
Today's mountain climbing was really unexpected.
The treasure hunting compass has shown its true effectiveness.
The most precious treasure in the mountains is wild ginseng.
Finally found one.
Xu Yang was happy. He adjusted himself a little before recovering from the excitement.
There is no way. For mountain herders, digging up a wild ginseng is really a great luck.
If the villagers dug it up, they would brag about it for at least several years and would mention it whenever they drank.
Xu Yang was not that serious, but the feeling of "picking up money" still made him a little excited.
"It's another source of income, and I can invest in an extra greenhouse."
Xu Yang thought secretly.
One ginseng plant for a greenhouse, this deal is very profitable.
Xu Yang used the treasure hunting compass again and scanned the area.
The treasure location is about 400 meters away from him.
Xu Yang set the drone to intelligent companion flight mode and continued moving forward.
Netizens did not notice that he had secretly dug up a decades-old ginseng.
The atmosphere in the live broadcast room is still relaxed.
Soon, Xu Yang arrived at the second treasure spot.
He himself was a little confused.
Another sixth-grade leaf!
This is like poking at the ginseng nest.
"Another sixth-grade ginseng!"
“This area is actually a ginseng den!”
Xu Yang looked around and he actually saw a small ginseng with three leaves.
Generally speaking, the rule of mountain herders is not to pick ginseng that is less than two years old. You can mark the spot and pick it after a while.
Xu Yang’s own plan is not to collect ginseng that is less than 10 years old.
In this way, ginseng can achieve self-reproduction.
"This is a den of ginseng."
“Can’t be exposed.”
"Come back later!"
“This is another treasure spot of mine!”
Xu Yang thought to himself.
He pretended not to see the ginseng and even walked in the opposite direction.
Don't be in a hurry, come back and dig after the broadcast is over.
He turned on the microphone and said softly:
"It seems that my luck today is not very good. I haven't seen any valuable mountain products so far."
"I went into the mountains this time for the Chaga mushrooms."
"Birch trees grow at relatively high altitudes and are more common in deep mountains."
"Let's look for birch trees tomorrow to see if there are any chaga mushrooms."
Xu Yang's expression was calm, neither happy nor sad.
Seeing him like this, some netizens were gloating, while others hoped that he would find something good soon.
The live broadcast room suddenly became lively.
[Every time I see this anchor find treasures in the mountains, I think he is cheating! ]
[We just entered the mountain. I believe Lao Xu, he is still very professional! ]
[Hahaha, I can’t find the best! ]
[It’s nice to see the scenery in the mountains, and it’s okay if you can’t find mountain products! 】
There are all kinds of speeches.
Xu Yang was in a good mood, but he didn't show it.
He commented on this in two words:
Movie king!
It was quite interesting to battle wits and courage with the netizens on the live broadcast. It was for this reason that he did not choose to go off the air.
Xu Yang was looking for a place to rest nearby.
The weather is getting hotter now, and the wind is very slow in the dense forest, making it a bit stuffy.
Need to find an open area.
There is a stream not far away, which is just right for a rest.
At the top of the mountain range is Tianchi Lake, with many rivers flowing down from the mountains and streams everywhere.
There is absolutely no shortage of water resources here.
Xu Yang walked all the way to the river and put down his backpack.
After a quick look around, he sat down on an open space to rest.
When we reached the open area, the wind became much stronger and it became cooler immediately.
Xu Yang took out a mineral water bottle, drew some water from the river, and placed it on the ground to let it sit.
Although mountain spring water is clean, you certainly can't drink too much of it. It's best to boil it and then cool it down. But since we don't have that condition right now, it's okay to just drink it directly.
He took out two more pancakes and some sausages.
Sit by the river and enjoy your meal.
"Rest for a while and find a place to set up the tent."
"Let's find a base nearby and stay in the mountains for two days."
"Don't be too anxious to find mountain products. Go back when you've found enough."
"If you're lucky and have a big harvest, just go back. If you're unlucky, look for more."
Xu Yang said calmly.
Xu Yang was in a good mood as he had already confirmed that he could harvest two sixth-grade ginseng leaves.
Made another lot of money.
Sure enough, with a treasure-hunting compass, you can really find treasures in the mountains.
At this time, two wild sika deer came to the river, about ten meters away from Xu Yang.
After seeing Xu Yang, they first stayed where they were and stared at Xu Yang for a while to determine whether Xu Yang was in danger.
"Why? Do you want to eat sausage?"
Xu Yang handed the sausage in his hand forward and greeted the deer with a smile.
These guys are quite alert, but relatively friendly to humans.
I am no longer afraid when I find that humans are not dangerous.
The sika deer moved its ears, then walked to the river, lowered its body, and drank water bit by bit.
While drinking water, their eyes are still looking around.
A drone was broadcasting this scene live.
When netizens saw the sika deer appear, they all laughed.
[It's a wild sika deer, it looks really smart! ]
[It feels good to see deer in the deep woods! ] [The scenery in the mountains is just beautiful. ]
[These sika deer are so cute! ]
The sika deer finished drinking water by the stream. At this time, they suddenly became alert and ran away in a jump.
He ran so fast, basically like a catapulting start.
Seeing their appearance, Xu Yang said with a smile:
"In the wild, herbivores face danger from all sides, so they are particularly alert."
"Run away at the slightest sign of trouble."
"This is normal."
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned his head and saw a black bear playing happily in the river upstream, flapping its wings downstream, as if catching fish.
"Oh my gosh, bear!"
Xu Yang stuffed a few bites of the pancake into his mouth, put all the garbage in a small plastic bag and took it away, then put on his backpack and ran away like a sika deer.
In fact, the black bear’s attack power is not too bad. After all, when it stands up, it is about the same size as a human.
But it is better not to provoke it if possible.
The drone broadcast live to a distance, and netizens also saw the black bear.
When everyone saw Xu Yang running quickly, they couldn't help but burst into laughter.
[Hahaha, the host was just talking about sika deer! ]
【Who wouldn’t run away if they encountered this thing! 】
[Oh my god, there really is a bear in the mountains! ]
[Don’t even mention bears, there are tigers and leopards in that area now, and there are warning signs in many places! ]
[There are many animals in Changbai Mountain. Isn't it normal to have bears? ]
[It’s at about the same latitude as Siberia, so there must be bears! ]
Xu Yang walked all the way into the forest.
The black bear didn't notice him just now, so Xu Yang's danger perception was not triggered.
It is already past three in the afternoon.
We have been traveling most of the day and are now deep in the mountains and forests.
"I'll find a place to set up the tent and settle down first."
"After entering the mountains, your daily routine will change because it will be dark at 7 or 8 o'clock and you won't be able to move around."
"So I have to go to bed at 8pm, get up around 5:30am tomorrow, and continue hiking at 6am."
"If we are lucky and can find good mountain products, we can go down the mountain tomorrow."
After Xu Yang entered the dense forest, he said to everyone.
Finding a place to set up a tent is also simple, it just needs to be relatively flat and sheltered from the wind.
He quickly found an area with relatively little vegetation and began to set up the tent.
His tent is relatively simple. He just spreads a piece of plastic sheet on the ground, sets up the frame and tarpaulin, and it's ready.
It's summer now and there's no need to keep warm.
Just having a place to sleep is enough.
After setting it up, Xu Yang took out some floral water and sprayed it around to drive away mosquitoes.
Also sprinkled some realgar powder.
"Let's rest here today and walk around to see if there are any good things."
"Take a good turn tomorrow."
“See if you can find some Chaga.”
Xu Yang said to the netizens in the live broadcast room.
Then, he said:
"The drone's battery is running low. I have to put it down to charge. The live broadcast will end here. It will start at around 6 a.m. tomorrow morning, starting from here."
"Goodbye, everyone."
In fact, the drone still had more than half of its battery left, but Xu Yang also had to find an excuse to go off the air.
When netizens heard that he was going to go off the air, they were a little disappointed for a moment.
[Brother Yang, you can also use your mobile phone to live stream! ]
【Let’s continue the live broadcast for a while! 】
Everyone tried to keep him.
However, Xu Yang still had things to do, so he waved goodbye to everyone and turned off the live broadcast.
After the broadcast, Xu Yang put away the drone.
Then, he took his tools for climbing the mountain and walked towards the ginseng he had just located.
The ginseng is still there.
The six stems grow very beautifully.
Moreover, there is no trace of insect bites on the leaves, which shows that they are well preserved.
Some ginsengs are damaged by insects and are in a very bad shape. Even after they are found, they are of little value and are quite useless.
Xu Yang started digging.
He is still very careful.
Every step was taken with caution, for fear of digging up the roots of the ginseng.
When digging ginseng, we use ox horn hoe or deer antler hoe, which are not so sharp, so there is no need to worry too much.
"It is also wild ginseng that is nearly sixty years old."
“This is indeed a ginseng den!”
Xu Yang picked up the ginseng, counted the knots on it, and said with a smile.
The surprise came too suddenly.
This area looks no different from an ordinary forest, but surprisingly there are so many pure wild ginseng growing there!
No mountain herders have come here yet.
Moreover, the area he came from was very remote and the road was difficult to travel on, and no one would come here for a long time.
"Mark the location. I also saw some wild ginseng that is less than ten years old. There must be some wild ginseng that is more than twenty years old. You can wait for them to grow longer."
“You can come back to pick them ten or twenty years later.”
"You can even come here every year and dig a few."
Xu Yang thought to himself.
He pays more attention to sustainable development, and he believes that killing the goose that lays the golden eggs is not a good idea.
The treasure hunting compass has been used three times so far, once with Schisandra chinensis and twice with wild ginseng.
He simply used the remaining two times.
Soon, the light of the treasure came on.
One was very close to him, about fifty meters away, and another was one kilometer away.
He went to the closer one first, and sure enough, it was wild ginseng.
It is a fifth grade leaf, but it should be quite old.
The number of leaves does not necessarily represent the age. For example, some fifth-grade leaves can be up to seventy or eighty years old, but the quality is not as good as that of sixth-grade leaves.
This also confirms that this area is the ginseng den.
