Episode 6: Windfall!

The book continues with the introduction, water is the source of life, and not to mention whether there are fish in the water in the prehistoric era, but there will definitely be other animals appearing by the water.

Not only humans, but animals in the jungle want to survive, they also need to drink water. They guard the water source. Is Jiangbei still afraid that they can't catch prey? The only thing he needs to worry about is not to encounter any too ferocious animals. If they fail to hunt, they will become prey instead.

In order to find the water source as soon as possible, he once again climbed a big tree.

By the way, although he could climb trees before, he was not as easy as he is now. This is thanks to the giant gene he had integrated into before, and he did miracles with great force. The online articles are really not bullying me!

Three or four people hugged a big tree of thickness, like a tall building, which was dozens of meters high. Such a big tree, which is now, after Jiangbei merged the gene of giant force and had the power of ant, could it reach the top of the tree.

First, he looked at the sun, roughly confirmed the four directions of southeast, west and north, and then compared them with each other. As a result, he found that the terrain in the east was relatively low, so he came down from the tree and walked towards the east without saying a word.

It is natural that he made a choice so quickly.

As the saying goes, people go to high places, and water flows to low places!

As long as people with common sense know, water flows generally from high places to low places, and rivers in the jungle are no exception. If you are lost in the jungle, as long as you can distinguish the height of the terrain, you can greatly increase the hope of finding water sources.

but.........

This is not enough. Jiangbei did not forget to turn his eyes along the way and searched around, hoping to find the wild beast road hidden between the jungle!

In the jungle, a water source is enough to feed many animals. In order to survive, these animals inevitably have to go to the water source to drink water. One or two, once or twice. If you walk too much, some wild beast roads will form in the jungle.

Usually, if people who are adventurers in the wild can find the location of the water if they can find the beast road, they may also be attacked by beasts.

However, this probability is relatively low after all, and compared to gain, this risk is worth taking. In addition, Jiang Heng is now arrogant and has great skills, and is even more fearless.

Unfortunately, although he thought it was good, he couldn't get what he wanted after walking for more than an hour.

"well!"

Just as Jiang Bei couldn't help but sigh, his eyes were suddenly attracted by a gray yellow root block on the ground not far away.

"This is.........."

Jiang Bei was a little unsure, but he still stepped forward quickly, picked up the piece, wiped the dust on it, and observed it carefully. Perhaps it was a psychological effect, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt it was like!

"Potato, this thing is definitely potato!"

The reason why Jiang Bei is so sure is not just a psychological effect, but because he is very familiar with this thing. Not to mention that he has planting it at home, his girlfriend He Ling also likes to eat spicy and sour potato shreds......

Well, potatoes are potatoes, and potatoes are potatoes. Could anyone not know?

In short, Jiangbei knew potatoes, but because he was actually a parallel world and was in a prehistoric era, he was a little afraid to confirm it due to the influence of the environment, but soon, he put aside his doubts and spoke with a firm conviction that the root block he was holding was potatoes!

Potato, also known as potato, has different names and titles in different countries, such as the United States called Irish jacca, Russia called Dutch potato, France called earth apple, Germany called earth pear, Italy called earth bean, Peru called Baba, etc.

It belongs to the Solanaceae family and is an annual herb. Tubers contain a lot of starch. They not only provide rich calories, but also are rich in protein, amino acids and a variety of vitamins and minerals. They are known as the world's five major crops together with wheat, rice, corn and sorghum... Well, save the countless professional terms introductions below, and summarize them in one sentence, that is: potatoes are an edible food!

Not only can it be eaten, but it can also be used as a staple food!

This was a breakthrough and major discovery, and Jiang Bei couldn't help but show a surprise on his face.

"Potatoes grow underground and will never appear on the ground for no reason."

"Well, there are biting marks on this potato, but the traces are not big, which means that the potatoes are pulled out of the soil should be small herbivorous or omnivorous animals."

"And, few animals collect food from a distance, so there must be potatoes growing nearby!"

Although he is not a professional reasoning master, as an adult with normal thinking logic, it does not prevent Jiangbei from making certain judgments through the traces on the scene.

Of course, he was not very sure whether his judgment was correct in this world and in this prehistoric era, but since there were some possibilities, he might as well look for it on the way forward. After all, it is more important for him to find water sources at the moment.

However, perhaps because he was in the fortunate position now, just a few dozen meters away from him walking eastward, a green plant about two or three feet high and came into his eyes.

The main trunk is diamond-shaped, with hairs on it, with forked, and the leaves are feathered, about the size of a palm, with small flowers on the top, nothing else, it is the potato he is looking for. This large area is standing in a row, and together, even if there are not a hundred, there must be seventy or eighty plants, which makes him stunned on the spot.

"this.........."

"I.........."

At this moment, Jiang Bei was so excited that it was hard to say. It took him a long time to recover, but he still couldn't suppress his heart: If such a large piece of potatoes bear fruit, even if the primitive species have low yields, it would be enough for him to worry about food in a short period of time.

Thinking of this, Jiang Bei quickly stepped forward, came closer, reached out and grabbed a potato, preparing to uproot it. This is actually a technical job, because the potato plant is very crisp, and if one is not good, it will be pulled out too hard, and then it will be difficult to dig the soil to dig it out.

Fortunately, Jiangbei's family grows potatoes all year round. When harvesting, he will help his parents harvest together. Therefore, he can barely be considered professional when pulling potatoes.

He grabbed the potato plant and pressed it down, causing the plant to tilt slightly by 60 or 70 degrees, and then gently pulled it up slowly with force.

Generally speaking, the fruits of wild potatoes are far less than those of artificially cultivated varieties, but in this prehistoric era, everything cannot be regarded as common sense. There are several large fruits growing under this potato, yellow and orange, and just looking at them makes people feel a big surprise.

"Good guy, this one is about ten pounds!"

If it is an excellent variety cultivated by artificially, it is not uncommon to have such a yield, but this is wild. When Jiangbei saw it, he couldn't help but exclaim. Then, he shook, shook off the soil attached to the potato, put it aside, and then stretched out his hand to pull out one, which was full of fruits.

This made him very satisfied. It seemed that this should be the normal yield of prehistoric potatoes, not just an exception. At present, he found some big stones nearby and moved them over and wrapped them up. On the one hand, it can serve as a protective effect, and on the other hand, it can also be used as a mark to make it easier for him to find it back here.

Yes, he only pulled two, one to verify the yield of prehistoric potatoes, and the other is because he still had to find water sources. Too much stuff on his body would affect his movement efficiency.
