Chapter 87: Encountering the Seven-step Snake Again
Chapter 87: Meeting the Seven-Step Snake Again
Shennongjia covers an area of more than 3,000 square kilometers, with an average altitude of 1,700 meters. Its forest coverage rate exceeds 88%, and more than half of it is uninhabited land. According to research, Shennongjia, like the Himalayas, was an uninhabited area countless years ago.
Oceans are formed due to movement of the earth's crust.
In China, there are endless legends about Shennongjia. The most famous one is that Shennong tasted hundreds of herbs, hence the name Shennongjia.
Mu Wenbin explored Shennongjia for another two days. Except for some traces left by travel companions or explorers, he didn't meet anyone.
And in the past two days, he also realized why Shennongjia was classified as a restricted area. Not only was the vegetation dense and difficult to walk in, dangers were everywhere, and there were also some supernatural things that were said to have happened.
In addition to venomous snakes and beasts, there are endless kinds of poisonous insects, and even some plants are carnivorous. Moreover, Mu Wenbin found that the deeper he went, the less effective his anthelmintics became. He had been infected by poisonous insects in the past two days.
He had been bitten by leeches several times, and the aura he unleashed unintentionally could not completely deter those poisonous insects and ferocious beasts.
However, Shennongjia is indeed the place where Shennong tasted hundreds of herbs. On the fourth day after entering the uninhabited land, he began to discover many precious medicinal materials. Although most of them were only three to five years old, he also encountered more than a dozen plants that were more than ten years old.
. If those villagers find this place, the harvest will probably catch up with them for several years.
Mu Wenbin did not touch most of the medicinal materials. He only collected some rare and rare medicinal materials. Not all medicinal materials can be cultivated artificially, so Wanli Company does not have the seeds of all medicinal materials. As for whether they can be planted alive, Mu Wenbin has no idea.
Don't consider it.
"These poisonous insects are really annoying. It seems that I have to prepare some new anthelmintics." Looking at the big bag on his arm, Mu Wenbin shook his head and said.
Just now, Mu Wenbin felt a pain in his arm. He raised his head and saw an unknown green and white poisonous insect the size of a coin lying on his arm. Its sharp mouthparts had pierced the skin and penetrated him accurately.
Although the poisonous insect was killed, a red and swollen lump the size of a peanut immediately appeared on the arm, which was painful and itchy.
Of course, all this was a piece of cake for Mu Wenbin. He was cured in less than ten seconds by running his Qi, but he was not in a good mood.
It has been five days since we entered Shennongjia. The medicinal materials we encountered are becoming more and more abundant, and many of them are the first time Mu Wenbin has seen them in kind. Of course, he recognized them at a glance. This is where his master and Shennong worked together.
He discovered many medicinal materials, and many of them were named by his master.
It’s not that he can’t mix better and more effective anthelmintic drugs, it’s because he can’t get many medicinal ingredients outside. But where is this? It only took less than an hour to prepare a new pack of anthelmintic drugs.
, he took out the medicinal materials in the original sachet and replaced it with new ones, and then hung it on his waist. The effect was really good. Those poisonous insects that dared to bite him immediately fled away from him five meters away as if they encountered natural enemies.
On the sixth day, Mu Wenbin was dazzled by the treasure he met that day.
Biyoucao, Linglong Ginseng, Qingmugen, Red Yinvine...these are precious medicinal materials that are not much different from ginseng, and there are even some that are rarer and more precious than ginseng. And the years are very high, one hundred, two hundred, three hundred years.
It can be seen everywhere in a hundred, not to mention five hundred years, but Mu Wenbin collected no less than a hundred plants on this day.
"Master, thank you, old man, for leaving me such wealth!" Mu Wenbin couldn't help shouting to the sky.
Mu Wenbin was not the first to come to the place where Mu Wenbin walked in the past two days. It can be seen from the age of the common medicinal materials that none are more than ten years old, but why are there so many medicinal materials that are more than a hundred years old?
That's because no one knows those medicinal materials. It's impossible to analyze the medicinal properties of those medicinal materials using the technology on earth today. In the face of science, they are just weeds.
But it's different here in Mu Wenbin. It's not that the medicinal materials have no medicinal properties, but the medicinal ingredients that stimulate those medicinal properties are unusual.
…
The black green tree is a dwarf native plant that looks like a mandala. Its tree has no value, but a black green tree that is more than a hundred years old will bear a fruit every ten years. Its fruit is similar to the datura, but its smell is
It smells bad, is bitter and tastes bad, and there is no reaction after eating it.
But a Polygonum multiflorum tree can bear up to five fruits in its lifetime. When it bears five fruits, the fruit will shed its skin once every hundred years, and the peeled skin will be more effective than the medicinal effect of Polygonum multiflorum for a hundred years. After molting ten times, the fruit will mature.
The fruit is no longer bitter and unpalatable, but has an attractive aroma. As long as ordinary people eat one, they can extend their life for a hundred years.
Just when Mu Wenbin found a black green tree, and its five fruits shed their skins at least twice, and when he was about to move the black green tree, he felt a gust of wind coming, but he easily dodged it!
"His! His! His!"
"Huh? Seven-step snake?" Mu Wenbin stared at the thing that just attacked him and said in surprise: "But is it too big?"
Seeing the seven-step snake, Mu Wenbin remembered the one when the black dragon assassinated him a year ago, but compared with the one in front of him, that one was not even a grandson.
The seven-step snake has a large triangular head, which can be clearly distinguished from the neck. It has long fangs. The back of the body is brown or slightly green, with large gray-white square patches on it. The body is generally more than one meter long, and it is only two meters long.
left and right, but the one in front of me is actually nearly four meters.
"His! His! His!"
The seven-step snake stared at Mu Wenbin, ready for a fight at any time.
The current Mu Wenbin is not the same as a year ago. Even though this seven-step snake with an unusual size does not look easy to mess with, he is not afraid at all. After taking a look at Wu Qingguo, Mu Wenbin almost understands why.
This seven-step snake is so abnormal.
The peeled skin of Wuqingguo is not an ordinary medicinal material. It dries up completely in less than three days after peeling off. Even in the hot and humid Shennongjia, it can remain incorruptible for hundreds of years.
This black green tree has shed its skin at least twice, but there is no skin around it. It seems to have been eaten by this snake. This is why this snake can grow up to four meters. It is estimated that it has lived for more than two hundred years.
"No wonder there isn't even a little bird nearby. It looks like you've eaten them all?" Mu Wenbin stared at the seven-step snake and said, "The two skins of the black green fruit were also in your belly."
"His! His! His!"
"A seven-step snake that is more than two hundred years old, your medicinal effect is much better than the skin of the black green fruit. It seems that I am very lucky today!"
"His! His! His!"
Snakes are very spiritual, not to mention this big snake that has been entrenched for more than two hundred years. It must be to protect this black green tree. To be precise, it is the five black green fruits. If you see someone trying to steal them, then
