Chapter 1039 Plants That Can Walk

At noon, after a half-day trek, I finally arrived at my destination.

The places I walked along the way were originally tropical rainforests, but now they are not suitable as a venue for filming programs.

Because the trees there have been cut down and are made into paper and disposable chopsticks on the spot.

In fact, the additional output value of these things is not high, and they all make money by quantity. However, today's Amazon rainforest cannot withstand the tossing of humans at all.

This is why, some time ago, when Xueshan Investment Company reformed and promoted the creativity of "less paper office", it received unprecedented praise from various environmental protection organizations.

Based on current technology, "paperless office" is basically impossible to achieve, so Han Xuan proposed the new concept of "less paper"...

There is no means of transportation, so you can only walk on your legs.

There is a small path at your feet, indicating that there should be people living around you. The wooden pier where the speedboat was docked just now also explains this.

After walking about a kilometer, a piece of buildings made of wood appeared in front of them, with about forty or fifty buildings, with a population of less than three hundred.

The slope of the roof is very steep, which is conducive to drainage. The roof is covered with unknown plant leaves, which have dried up and cannot see the specific types clearly.

In fact, based on Han Xuan's understanding of local plants, he probably couldn't tell which plant it was even if it was still fresh. After asking a guide, he found out that it was oil palm, which was also a good waterproof material that he asked Bell Greers to use as a top at night.

Because there are too many toxic creatures and reptiles, the buildings are hanging down below, similar to bamboo buildings in southern Yunnan. You can also see some buildings built of bamboo here.

Mr. Gerd Evila, one of the three guides, grew up here since childhood.

After adulthood, I left my home to work in the tour guide industry because I longed for life in the outside world. I haven't come back for more than ten years. Some people in the town still remember him and hugged him and asked them what they were doing.

He did not explain Han Xuan's identity, but only told him to shoot a documentary about the rain forest. They rarely contacted the outside world, so they did not recognize him.

The people in the town were very happy about this and thought that Gerde Evila was a big deal. People here thought that the movie was a very mysterious thing.

Here you can see some modern tools, such as bicycles and copper stoves, but not too many and there is no power.

Han Xuan learned during a chat that they still live a traditional self-sufficient farming life.

The old people are used to it, but young people yearn for big cities and hope to live in the city one day, but they have no money to buy a house in the city. Speaking of which, they have no choice but to put their ideas on this tropical rainforest.

They had almost nothing except the unowned wood. No wonder many illegal merchants colluded with locals and cut down unplanned under the eyes of the government of the Republic of Brazil without planning, but no one reported it. Instead, they covered the merchants.

The locals have not paid the price for this.

The Amazon River has countless branch rivers. From the 1970s to now, more than 100,000 people have died from mudslides, landslides, etc., and abnormal natural disasters.

Because trees that have fixed water and soil have been cut down, there have been more and more similar incidents in recent years.

What’s even more sad is that the locals took the wood but got very little money and were still very poor, while the local prices were higher than those in New York.

If Han Xuan wants to slow down the opening of the Amazon rainforest, he must first make the locals rich, otherwise these people will not support him.

However, many countries cannot solve problems, so it is not easy for him to deal with them.

I think I can only do what I can. Everyone will achieve great results if they put in a little effort. Let’s start with advocating the use of disposable chopsticks less...

It's too late.

After asking about the locals, the guides left the small town with only a few dozen households.

Han Xuan unexpectedly found that they had no eggs, and the tragic past of these sheep had been born on them was self-evident. It must have been dried egg-cut fish.

According to Mr. Gerd, there are those kinds of fish in the nearby river.

When the weather is too stuffy, these sheep like to go down the river, which almost caused them to be extinct locally in the past.

After sorting out the equipment, go out and enter the tropical rainforest.

There are towering trees around, which can be dozens of meters high. The sun is blocked and it is slightly dark.

This environment is very suitable for the growth of bryophytes. The stones under your feet are very slippery and the gaps are green.

The most in this plant treasure house is plants, and cypresses grow on the roadside.

In drought, the strange cypress can separate the rhizomes from the soil, curl up into a ball and roll with the wind until they find a suitable place before they re-root.

Like the ginseng essence that runs in myths and legends, the difference is that it can really run.

There were extremely huge Amazon king lotus floating on the river surface. Such large round water lily leaves filled the river. Han Xuan had the idea of ​​standing up and trying it out, but then he remembered where he was now and immediately gave up.

There are many crocodiles in the river channel here, and there are many piranhas.

After walking a few hundred meters, the path reached the end.

Mr. Nando, who is the assistant of Bell Griers and director, looked at the surrounding environment and spoke: "Bell, Han."

It's here, there are no traces of artificiality.

Your mission is to hike from this town to the next town, about twelve kilometers away.

More than two days should be enough…”

Walking through the rainforest is not as simple as it is elsewhere.

There is no road at all. Sometimes you have to go a long way to continue walking. The actual distance may be more than three times longer than the distance on the map.

"Then it's here, are you ready, Han?"

Bell's mouth curled up and asked Han Xuan.

"Um.

Don't worry about me, I have experience shooting programs and know how to do it.

No script? That's how it starts?"

"Yes, then start, please feel free to wave."

Director Nando turned on the camera, debugged the microphone and other equipment, and after finishing it, he gestured to ok, and followed the two people walking forward to shoot...

Bell said to the camera: "I never thought I would have a partner before.

And he is such a young partner and has no experience in survival. This makes me feel that he will become his nanny in the next few days. I hope nothing unexpected happens.

However, I am very happy that Han Xuan can come to accompany me through the Amazon rainforest. After all, it is difficult to see the world's wealthy and endure hardships. He has always been very handsome in people's minds before?

I promise that these few days will be difficult for him. I hope you won’t gloat after the show is broadcast, otherwise he will definitely not let me go..." (To be continued.)
