Entering May, as the temperature in the north gradually becomes hotter, a piece of news quickly appeared on the hot search and attracted everyone's attention.
The reason was that a tourist was out on a wild trip in the northwest desert and shot a video that attracted everyone's attention. In the video, the photographer and other friends drove an off-road vehicle through the desert. But when they climbed over a tall sand dune,
Suddenly a large stretch of rolling green appeared in front of me.
It was like suddenly arriving at the edge of the desert. A large oasis suddenly appeared in this monotonous desert, full of life.
When they walked in, they discovered that the actual oasis was protected inside by a barbed wire fence. What was inside the barbed wire fence was not other common desert plants, but a large area of bamboo, and it was lush and lush bamboo.
Different from those thick bamboos, the bamboos here are thinner, the thin ones are about as thick as a thumb, and the thick ones are about as thick as the wrist. These moso bamboos grow vigorously, with some being about ten meters high and three or four meters short.
And in the bamboo forest, there are actually some bamboo shoots that have just broken out of the ground, with their sharp corners showing.
This surprised the tourist and his friends. Finally, several people decided to climb over the barbed wire fence and take a look. After they entered, they discovered that there was an endless bamboo forest inside. The entire bamboo forest was full of bamboos and no other plants. It was green and green.
Green and green, the bamboo tops sway gently in the breeze.
If the loess under their feet and the blazing sun above their heads hadn't reminded them that this place was deep in the northwest, they would have felt as if they were in the south of the Yangtze River.
When they curiously broke off a bamboo branch, they discovered that these bamboos were very different from the many bamboos they had seen. First of all, the bamboo leaves here were very different from those they had seen. The bamboo leaves in the south were very different.
The leaves are sword-shaped, long and wide, just like an enlarged version of a willow leaf, with coordinated proportions. The surface of the bamboo leaves is smooth, the back is rough, the leaves are thin, with some vertical stripes on them, and the edges of the bamboo leaves are jagged.
texture, which makes them look sharper and more powerful.
The bamboo leaves here are relatively slender, about the same length as ordinary bamboo leaves, but the width is only one-third of ordinary bamboo leaves. Moreover, this leaf is thicker than ordinary bamboo leaves, and its surface is
There is a hint of oily sheen on it, which shines under the sunlight.
In addition, the bamboo joints of bamboo are slightly different from those of ordinary bamboo. This bamboo joint is relatively not so obvious, unlike ordinary bamboo bamboo joints which are very obvious. In addition, the bamboo poles here are not very obvious.
It's as smooth as ordinary bamboo, but slightly rough.
Just as the tourists and their friends were about to go in and explore further, a drone suddenly appeared in the sky, then flew over them and hovered over them and turned on the voice to disperse them.
When these people saw this, they immediately walked out of the bamboo forest, got through the barbed wire fence, and were about to drive away. Unexpectedly, several off-road vehicles quickly drove over and crossed in front of their two cars.
A group of people in gray uniforms quickly got out of the car and quickly controlled them. This made them very dissatisfied, and while arguing with each other, they started to call the police.
This group of people in gray uniforms did not pay attention to their protests, but began to inspect them carefully. They confiscated the bamboo branches and leaves they carried from the bamboo forest, and then let them go and warned them not to break in again.
They got closer and then let them go.
This made several people very depressed, and they all wanted to ask for an explanation, but the other party didn't seem to care. Soon, a police car came here. After understanding the situation, they warned several people before giving up.
They leave.
These people were very dissatisfied with this, so they decided to post the video taken in the front and the video taken later with the car's driving recorder on the Internet to accuse the barbaric behavior of this group of people in gray uniforms and the police.
The so-called 'inaction' here.
As soon as this video was released, it quickly attracted the attention of the entire Internet. After all, it contained too many elements, so it quickly stimulated the nerves of netizens.
At first, everyone focused on the identity of this group of men in gray uniforms and why the police wanted to warn them instead. For a while, there were constant voices of crusade, and even slogans such as "a nest of snakes and rats" came out.
Then, everyone discovered something was wrong, that is, how could bamboo appear in this vast desert area.
You know, bamboo grows in a warm and humid environment, so it is mainly distributed in the south of our country. Of course, bamboo is also distributed in the north, but it is mainly in the Guannai area, and it is a cold-resistant variety.
How is it possible for bamboo to grow in arid and extremely cold areas like the northwest desert? What's more, in the hinterland of the desert surrounded by Gobi desert, such a large bamboo forest suddenly appeared, which gave people an unreal feeling.
So many people began to doubt the authenticity of this video, thinking that it was too unreasonable and that it should have been staged and combined with post-production special effects behind a green screen.
However, professionals soon came out to refute the rumors. This video has not undergone any post-processing and is in the original video, which means that the video is real.
This has made many people curious. How could there be such a large area of bamboo suddenly appearing in the hinterland next door to the northwest desert of our country?
Judging from the shooting of the video, this large area of bamboo must be more than 10,000 acres.
Soon, based on the location provided by these people, someone found this place through satellite maps, which further confirmed that there is indeed such a large sea of bamboo deep in the desert.
And it is even more shocking when viewed through the satellite map. There is a gray desert all around, but here is a large green area, which is very abrupt. It is like an emerald embedded in the desert.
Subsequently, professional science experts and botany experts came out to interpret the video. Based on their analysis, they believed that this was a brand new bamboo species and should be an experimental species.
Why do you say that? Because this bamboo is obviously specially cultivated to adapt to the desert environment. Because it conforms to the characteristics of many desert plants, such as traditional bamboo leaves, which are wide, long, and relatively thin. And the bamboo leaves here are very thin.
, and it is thicker than traditional bamboo leaves.
Because the light in the desert is relatively strong and evaporation is relatively large, many plants will greatly reduce the area of their leaves in order to avoid excessive evaporation of their own water by high temperature and strong light, thereby reducing evaporation.
Just like Haloxylon ammodendron, camel thorn, and cactus in the desert, their leaves are very small, and many even degenerate into thorns.
