Chapter 238 The Giant Panda in the Fungus World
The pangolin couple went back and forth between Li Mu and the cave again and again.
A small pile of black ginseng has been placed on the ground.
"Okay, this is enough." Li Mu saw the couple put down the black ginseng in their mouths and wanted to get back into the cave, so he quickly stopped them.
“What’s wrong?” The little pangolin looked up at him, “There are still others in the cave.”
"That's enough." Li Mu smiled and shook his head, looking at the Pangolins, they wanted to give him all the Wulingshen.
"Oh."
The pangolin nodded, "Come here after you finish eating, and I will pick it for you."
"Okay, thank you." Li Mu bent down and touched it. He touched the pangolin's little head and said, "Can I see your cave?"
"Okay." The pangolin led Li Mu to the small mound.
It turned out to be a termite nest.
Li Mu looked at the mound in front of him.
The shape of the small mound is like a mountain, with many small holes on it, left by the entry and exit of termites in the past. The pangolin dug a larger hole in the mound as a portal to enter the nest. .
At first, Li Mu was surprised as to why there was black ginseng in the pangolin's cave, but he understood it when he saw this termite nest.
Wild black ginseng has very strict environmental requirements. One of the necessary conditions for its growth is a termite nest, and it must be an abandoned termite nest.
Li Mu took out a flashlight and shined it into the hole. There was still a deep space underground.
The pangolins came in, which means that there are no termites in it. It is an abandoned ant nest, which is just suitable for the growth of black ginseng.
"It's nice and safe here. You can live a good life here."
Li Mu put away the flashlight and touched the two pangolins again, "Nurture the next generation well."< br>
The two pangolins nodded in confusion.
This is a young couple who have just been together.
Li Mu smiled, turned around and prepared to leave.
Brother Nan has packed the black ginseng given by the pangolin.
"We're leaving. If you need help, come to me." Li Mu waved goodbye to the pangolin.
“Goodbye Xiaojia.” Brother Nan didn’t know when he named the pangolin.
"We're leaving, you have to nurture the next generation!" Mao'er imitated Li Mu's words seriously and stretched out a small paw to wave.
“Oh.”
The two pangolins stood up and learned to wave their little paws. They didn’t get back into the cave until no one could be seen.
"Ni Mu." Mao'er walked at Li Mu's feet and looked up at him.
“Huh?”
"What is cultivating the next generation?"
"."
Li Mu glanced at Brother Nan secretly, "Yogurt Master doesn't understand this, so why do you want to learn what I say?"< br>
“Cats are all like this.” The kitten continued to ask, “What is raising the next generation?”
“It means that they will give birth to several little pangolins in the future, and then teach them how to live. knowledge and skills, so that they can continue to cultivate the next generation.”
"Hmm!"
The cat nodded in understanding.
Not long after walking, he raised his head again and said, "Then when will you and Brother Lan give birth to a few little humans? Master Yoghurt can teach them to catch mice and climb trees!"
". "
Li Mu took another peek at Brother Nan who was walking in front. He lowered his head and looked into the big eyes of the kitten. After thinking for a while, he said, "Doesn't it hurt, Mr. Yogurt, when you raise your head and neck like this?"
"It won't hurt."
"Yoghurt-sama, you can walk farther away and don't stick so close to me. This way you don't have to raise your head so high and it will be easier."
"But Yogurt The adults are small and their voices are small. People's ears are not good, so you can't hear clearly if you are far away."
"But you will be tired." "The cat won't do this. Tired.”
"But if you walk too close, I'm afraid I'll step on you."
"Master Yoghurt is very powerful!"
"That's right."
Li Mu nodded.
The kitten shook its head and continued to walk close to his ankle, seeming to have forgotten the question just now.
"Huh"
Li Mu breathed a sigh of relief, and the topic was successfully changed.
Passing by a patch of grass, the kitten picked up a small branch and went to play with Brother Nan cutting the grass.
Li Mu thought that the live broadcast was still on, so he took out his mobile phone and looked at the live broadcast room.
The barrage is pouring in, and they are still discussing the Wu Ling Ginseng just now——
[I guess the anchor is a hidden rich second generation, he doesn’t seem to be very interested in money. 】
[I felt bad when the anchor said these are enough, but that is Wulingshen (crying)]
[Others would like to take all of them when they see such valuable medicinal materials. Let’s go, the anchor thinks there are too many (in a daze)]
[Wild black ginseng seems to be quite valuable! ]
[Brothers, I came back after searching. Wild black ginseng, the worst quality one, costs more than a thousand yuan a pound! 】
"Wulin ginseng is too precious. It is not easy to grow it into medicinal materials. It is better to leave some for nature." Li Mu looked at the barrage that kept rolling and explained.
【Why is it not easy? Not a bacteria? In our woods here, a lot of fungi will grow when it rains (doubtful)]
[That’s right, aren’t fungi just mushrooms? Nothing is easy. 】
[Upstairs, it’s really not easy. My family runs a traditional Chinese medicine store. Wulingshen has very strict requirements on the growth environment, so artificial breeding is difficult. This is why it is expensive. My family The medical center once received high-quality wild ginseng for 9,000 yuan per pound! 】
【Holy shit, buddy, are you talking about Japanese yen? (In a daze)]
[Renminbi (nose picking)]
“This netizen is right, the formation of Wulingshen is very difficult.”
Li Mu thought about the records in medical books, “Because Wulingshen is not easy to form.” There are two key factors for the growth of ginseng. One is the temperature, which needs to be between 22°C and 28°C, and the other is the concentration of carbon dioxide, which requires the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air to reach more than 20% to grow.
“The concentration of carbon dioxide in the normal atmosphere is about 0.04%, which is why Wulingshen can only be formed accidentally in termite nests.
“Termites are animals that particularly like warm, humid and dimly lit environments, so they build nests several meters deep underground.
"The air circulation underground is poor, and termites will produce a large amount of carbon dioxide during their metabolism, causing the carbon dioxide concentration in the nest to seriously exceed the standard, often maintaining it above 20%, which is exactly what the growth needs of Wulingshen are.
"A high-quality black ginseng takes more than ten years to grow, but termites eat a lot of food and eat miscellaneous food. If they find a black ginseng in their nest, they will eat it as soon as possible, so the formation of black ginseng One more coincidence is needed, and that is termites moving.
“All the above conditions are combined to form Wuling ginseng. This is why wild Wuling ginseng is called the giant panda of the fungi world and why it is sold so expensively.”
[It’s so troublesome]
[Well, it’s understandable that it’s so expensive. 】
[No wonder the anchor didn’t let the pangolin dig it up, it’s not easy! 】
【Anchor, do you sell these Wulingshen? When you get back, can you cut one and show me the quality? As long as it’s similar, I’ll charge the highest price in the market! 】
Li Mu took a look at the ID. It was the same person whose family opened a traditional Chinese medicine clinic.
“I’m sorry, I’m not going to sell these.”
These wild black ginseng are hard to get outside. After you go back and dry them, you can give them to your uncle, aunt, and Brother Nan. My parents brought some.
She also wants to go to the capital to see her grandpa, and she can also bring some to her grandpa.
Wulin ginseng has the effects of calming the nerves, stopping bleeding, lowering blood pressure, and is particularly effective in treating insomnia. Brother Nan's grandfather is old, so he thought it would be the most suitable for this.
Today’s forest patrol was a great harvest.
Thanks to the boss of GHOSTRiDer for the reward! Bow and open your chest
