There are little knots on the branches that are thicker than your thumb.
On the thin red branches, several leaves grow together.
More than two meters high, lush and green, with several plants connected together.
Cassava!
Yang Tianwen is very familiar with this kind of crop. His grandfather used to grow a small area at his house.
The country of origin is Brazil, and now it can be found almost all over the world.
When participating in the competition, the teacher specially spent an hour training everyone.
Therefore, when Yang Tianwen called the three of them, they all recognized them.
Why training is needed.
Quite simply, cassava is a grain and is probably the best food source found on the island.
With luck, you may be able to find dozens of kilograms of fruit under one cassava plant.
This is why Yang Tianwen laughed for the second time after showing up on the island.
The first time was when he was hit on the head!
Ho ho ho...
Because he was so excited, he made a strange sound when he hit his head. He stood there shaking his shoulders, his joy was beyond words.
"This is cassava."
“Are we developed?”
"It's very possible!"
"dig and see."
Soon, several people gave up.
The small wooden stick he carried with him could not pry the solid ground at all. Yang Tianwen used the strength to pull up the weeping willow, but only partially broke the branches outside, causing him to fall to his knees.
I decided immediately to go back and get the shovel.
The faster ones smashed their heads and headed straight for the camp.
The remaining three people drank some water and rested under the shade of a tree for the time being.
Bell said he completely understood their actions.
Food is so important. Even if you know it won't be lost, you still have to watch it. This feeling is like a cheetah catching its prey and keeping it in a tree.
However, he maintained an attitude about how much he would gain, it was like drawing a blind box.
"Hey, why are you the only one back? Where are the three of them?"
Wu Jing and Lao Hu had been busy at the camp all morning, and the door was already ready.
It is said to be a door, but it is actually a row of branches with leaves.
When you sleep at night or when it rains, put it at the door to block it. If it gets too hot, you can remove it. Although it is simple, it is very convenient.
There was no seafood for lunch, so they put bananas in the fire to roast in advance, preparing to welcome the members back.
As a result, after waiting and waiting, one came back.
"Slow down, slow down, don't fall."
Huchi...huchi...
The walk is not a straight one, and the journey back to the camp is estimated to be more than two kilometers.
The blow to the head only took less than fifteen minutes, and I was out of breath.
Even before setting off, Yang Tianwen reminded her not to go too fast and pay attention to safety.
But I feel that I need to hit it faster, otherwise the cassava will run away from the field.
Nothing will happen!
Seeing how anxious she was, the two of them were a little worried.
After explaining things clearly intermittently, they both felt relieved.
"Well, just rest here while we go over there!"
Lao Hu rolled up his sleeves and was ready to set out with a shovel.
He hit his head and blinked: "Brother, can you find the place?"
Ga!
His feet stopped and it seemed like eh!
In the end, it was decided that Wu Jing would stay behind, and Lao Hu would follow suit and throw his head in to support.
During this period, the three of them were not completely idle, cleaning up some of the plants around the cassava.
If you're too stubborn, you'll just give up and don't have the energy to do much.
Then comes the anticipation.
Yang Tianwen said that in the cassava field at his grandfather’s house, one plant can produce the most fruits, and they can bear several fruits. The big ones are one meter long and weigh more than ten kilograms.
This stuff contains linseed picroside, which cannot be eaten raw as it is poisonous.
It is rarely cooked and eaten, because the taste is very ordinary, to be precise, it has no taste.
The taste is similar to roasted banana.
Containing too much starch can easily cause indigestion or diarrhea after eating.
Normally, the starch is extracted and made into tapioca flour, which looks like flour, but is much rougher and has grains.
In the wild, there are not so many things to pay attention to. It’s good to be able to fill your stomach.
"One plant weighs less than thirty kilograms. If there are five plants here, that's one hundred and fifty kilograms. What else can we compare? We won!"
"Sister Mi, you think too much!"
Yang Tianwen likes these two young ladies very much. They have great personalities, are very casual, and don't have the airs of a celebrity.
Reba will twist her body and dance when she encounters something happy.
Not to mention Yang Mi, who is aggressive and insulting.
No matter who it is, she can fight against them if she wants to.
Of course, this is teasing, not a personal attack, it is simply to adjust the atmosphere.
Big Brother Wu Jing is often talked about in a speechless manner, making other people laugh.
"Although there is no strict ripening time for cassava, it is in the wild after all.
The farmers at home take care of it, remove insects, fertilize and water it.
Everything in the wild fends for itself."
Yang Tianwen pointed to the trees, weeds and wildflowers nearby: "These are actually competitors with each other.
In the plant world, sunlight is the key to growth.
In order to obtain sunlight, the trees in the rainforest grow wildly upward, and the vines cling to them.
There are many trees in this area, so we have to be mentally prepared."
He is not pessimistic. The greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.
He didn't want to see a few people disappointed.
"It's okay, I can accept losing 0 or 15 pounds."
While chatting, I saw the two figures in the distance.
Nothing to say, let’s get started!
Yang Tianwen sat for about half an hour, almost rested, and picked up the shovel first.
The ground in the jungle is not easy to dig, mainly because the soil is tangled, the shovel is not a hoe, and it is a bit awkward to use.
"Take a break!"
Five minutes passed, and I hit him on the head and felt sorry for him.
His face was covered with sweat, and his breathing became louder.
Lao Hu took over: "There are many of us, so we can work separately. There is no need for one person to work hard alone."
Yang Tianwen did not refuse and took the turban that was smashed on his head and wiped his sweat.
It didn't work, just after wiping it off, it came out again.
It was already past twelve o'clock, and the shade of the trees was of little use, as the temperature was at least thirty-seven or eighty degrees.
"I appreciate the hard work of the farmer uncle!" Yang Mi couldn't help but sigh after getting started.
When my head hit the field, I finally saw the fruit.
In fact, it's not very deep, about half a meter. It only had one tool, and the ground was very solid, so it took a lot of effort.
[Recommended, Yeguo Reading is really easy to use, download it here www. Come and give it a try.]
However, the first one obviously disappointed everyone.
There were fruits. Yang Tianwen stepped forward and pulled them out, and they all came out.
After counting, there were four pieces in total. The big one was about the same as his fist, so I didn't mention the small one.
The five people looked at each other.
"What a loss!"
"This wave of blood loss took five people half an hour, but they didn't have enough energy and money."
"There is still a chance."
"Otherwise, don't dig out those few plants. It's a waste of effort."
The audience also felt quite disappointed. After waiting for a long time, the result was this, this?
Unwilling to give up, Lao Hu took the shovel and searched the pit again, and determined that it was just this little thing.
For a moment, the five people were speechless.
Even though Yang Tianwen had advised him not to have high expectations, he would definitely ask for everything in his heart.
Compared to the effort, the benefits are too little.
"What now?"
Yang Tianwen knows what Yang Mi means.
"You definitely can't give up if you give up. You won't be willing to give up. You have to dig out and take a look.
Lao Hu, otherwise, the two of us will continue to stay here, and the three of them will go back first to rest and eat something. We just happen to have a lot of water left.
Come back in the afternoon."
"I have no problem." Lao Hu nodded.
The three young ladies were not pretentious. They had eaten so much fish in the morning and had already finished digesting it. Their stomachs were growling and they needed to eat.
Everyone gathered the remaining water into a kettle, and the three of them got up and returned.
"I'll come over first." Toutou didn't forget to say before leaving.
Watching the three people leave, Lao Hu suddenly sighed.
"You two have a really good relationship."
Yang Tianwen smiled: "I'm envious, you should quickly find one."
Many viewers in the live broadcast room were like, well, I have to urge marriage.
"You thought you were buying something!"
The two of them did not work in a hurry, but first went to sit in the shade of a tree and take a breath, otherwise they would easily suffer from heatstroke.
"Whatever you see, you can take it away if you pay for it."
"Although it's not shopping, you have to take the initiative," Yang Tianwen was very curious: "As far as I know, you have been single for a long time, and you don't stay at home every day. Have you never met a girl you like?
"
Lao Hu just laughed and did not answer directly.
"Ah!? Are there any girls who don't like you?"
"Hahaha, that's not normal. You are not the earth. The moon has to revolve around you."
"Be thick-skinned. Don't be too reserved when chasing girls. You are a man and you have to take the initiative. If you don't take the initiative, where will the story come from!"
Lao Hu turned his head and raised his eyebrows: "Hey, from what I heard, you are quite experienced."
Unexpectedly, Yang Tianwen waved his hand directly: "Bumping on the head is my first love. I never fell in love in college. I learned these in TV dramas."
"Have you never been in love in college?" Lao Hu didn't believe it: "Although you are not a particularly handsome big boy, you are chubby and cute. I believe some girls will like you."
"The problem is...there are only ten girls in our school."
Snap!
Lao Hu clapped his hands heavily and remembered.
The guy is majoring in construction and digging tunnels. It is true that there are relatively few girls applying for the exam.
"Then you hit him on the head...who will chase whom?
If you don’t want to answer, you don’t have to say anything!”
"I must be the one chasing her!"
In fact, the relationship between the two has been growing for a long time.
We spent some time together in the forest of Yundian.
Some people may think, how long did it take for you to have feelings?
no the same!
When you are outside, you have all kinds of different itineraries and all kinds of temptations.
There are none in the forest.
Every day when I open my eyes, I see each other and we spend most of the day together.
At that time, Yang Tianwen could be said to be shining.
The most important thing is that when the two of them go to another team and face a strange environment, they must support and rely on each other.
To use an inappropriate metaphor, one day in the forest is equivalent to three days outside. In total, three months is not too short.
It's quite normal to be together.
He was also a little shy. After chatting for a few words about the two of them, Yang Tianwen picked up the shovel and changed the topic.
Naturally, Lao Hu would not delve into it.
The other three returned to the camp and saw what they had in their hands. Wu Jing could understand it.
The harvest in the past two days has exceeded expectations, and this should be the norm.
He handed over the roasted bananas and took care of the three people's diet.
After eating some food, filling up the water bottle, I couldn’t wait to set off.
He was stopped by Yang Mi.
"Don't be too anxious. Take a rest for a while. In such a hot day, they must take some time to stop themselves from getting sick."
My head was pounding and I was anxious, but what Yang Mi said made sense and sat back down.
After staying in the camp for half an hour, I rushed over with Wu Jing!
After arriving, Wu Jing tilted his head.
"This is a bit unreasonable..."
