Chapter 739 Maya

Peanut, formerly known as groundnut, also known as longevity fruit.

Li Chongyuan remembered.

When I was a child in my previous life, I learned a text called peanuts.

Li Chongyuan has long forgotten the original text of peanuts.

Today, Li Chongyuan has gone through all kinds of difficulties and obstacles to come to this strange land tens of thousands of miles away from the Tang Dynasty, looking for the taste that he has always been obsessed with.

Finally, today I saw the second crop I was looking for.

Groundnut has too many effects.

It is because of his efficacy that it has the name of longevity fruit.

For example, eating more peanuts has anti-aging and anti-aging effects.

It has the function of promoting development, promoting the growth of children's bones, lowering cholesterol, and having the function of producing blood.

It is because of the effect of anti-aging and delaying aging that it has the name of longevity fruit.

even.

Red-skinned peanuts also have the function of nourishing blood, increasing the content of platelets, and improving the quality of platelets.

Of course, the role mentioned here is basically based on raw food.

It is dried peanuts, eaten raw.

Of course, peanuts just dug out of the ground are equally effective.

As for cooked and fried, the effect will be greatly reduced.

And the most important function of this red-skinned peanut is its red skin.

The benefits of groundnuts are not listed in detail here.

When Li Chongyuan was holding a few groundnuts in his hand, he was excited and had some tears in his eyes.

After nearly ten years.

After nearly ten years, Li Chongyuan finally saw this thing again, which made Li Chongyuan excited.

Think about the previous life.

In Li Chongyuan's family, at least half an acre of mountain peanuts are planted every year.

Although peanuts were planted in half an acre of mountain land, the yield was very little when it was harvested.

Most of the animals on the mountain will be harmed.

But Li Chongyuan's mother is always tireless and has to plant it every year.

Not for anything else, just for my own children. When someone else has a snack to eat, I won’t watch other children’s eyes drooling.

Gan Province in the south is different from the north. There are many mountains and few fields. It is definitely extremely difficult to reclaim a piece of mountainous land.

On the other hand, in the north, if you grow peanuts, there will be a large area of ​​that kind.

When it comes to harvesting peanuts.

This made Li Chongyuan have some more pictures in his mind, which he couldn't get rid of.

Li Chongyuan remembered.

When I was a child in my previous life, once the peanuts were harvested, I had to pick peanuts for several days in a row.

Picking peanuts is a very finger-consuming job, and it is also a job that requires patience. That kind of pain is probably the memory of most children born in the 90s and [-]s in the south.

At that time Li Chongyuan was still young, so he couldn't sit still.

But even if you can't sit still, your parents are there, and you have nowhere to run if you want to.

Every year, after the busy farming season is over, it is the time to harvest peanuts.

Li Chongyuan misses his past life.

Although I can no longer see my relatives from my previous life, my friends from my previous life, or everything from my previous life.

But fortunately, there are these things in front of him, as some memories, to fill the lack in Li Chongyuan's heart.

Seeing Li Chongyuan kneeling on the ground, holding a few fruits, Xingba and the others knelt down curiously, and pulled out a few fruits from the soil, "Xiao Langjun, this is the longevity fruit? Can she really eat it if she eats it?" Longevity?"

"What are you thinking? If you can live forever by eating this, then the aborigines here are all immortal gods." Li Chongyuan replied.

Xing Ba was puzzled, and continued to ask: "Then why is it called the longevity fruit? I think this fruit also grows from the soil, and there is nothing special about it. How can she be called the longevity fruit?"

"Because eating more of her can make people delay aging, so it is called longevity fruit." Li Chongyuan explained.

Before Xingba continued to ask questions, Li Chongyuan withdrew all the thoughts in his mind and told everyone, "Quickly, everyone will look for it again. There are longevity fruits here, and there must be more nearby. Remember, as long as they are intact fruits, I will collect them." .”

Everyone hurriedly looked for it.

Li Chongyuan did this because he was afraid that Xing Ba would continue to question him.

Ask him how Li Chongyuan knew about peanuts.

Although, on the boat, Li Chongyuan had already explained it.

As for the explanation at that time, Li Chongyuan still carried out the Fanbang people and pushed everything to the Fanbang people.

But Li Chongyuan knew that Xing Ba and others had doubts about Li Chongyuan.

It is completely unreasonable to doubt Li Chongyuan's explanation.

Therefore, in order to reduce his own troubles, Li Chongyuan quickly changed the subject.

In the camp, several catties of peanuts were found.

As for places farther away, Li Chongyuan didn't send anyone to look for them.

One is that it is dark, and the other is that I am afraid of some undetectable factors.

after all.

On the way Li Chongyuan and the others traveled, they found traces of human life.

Although they didn't search for it on a large scale, whether it was scouts or security personnel, they still dispersed.

night.

Li Chongyuan couldn't sleep anymore.

Li Chongyuan opened his eyes, looking at the dark tent top, his thoughts began to return to his previous life.

The night passed.

Shortly after dawn, the search for groundnuts continued.

After a whole day of searching, Li Chongyuan and the others finally found hundreds of catties of peanuts.

There are big and small.

Although he already has hundreds of catties of peanuts, Li Chongyuan is still not satisfied with this amount. He needs more peanuts, just like sunflower seeds.

If you don't have a thousand catties, you have to get three to five hundred catties.

Although the fruit size of these peanuts is not comparable to that of the previous life, only half the size, it is already very rare.

However, Li Chongyuan still hopes to find more peanuts and bring them back for large-scale breeding.

the next few days.

Going all the way to the depths, digging forward all the way.

Hundreds of catties of peanuts have finally been found in the past few days, thanks to everyone's efforts to find them.

After hundreds of catties of peanuts arrived, Li Chongyuan couldn't wait to have the peanuts brought back to the boat and let them dry them like millet.

Keep going.

"Xiao Langjun, look, what is that!" After walking nearly two hundred miles, Xingba suddenly pointed to a huge round rock in the distance ahead.

Li Chongyuan looked in the direction Xingba was pointing at, and was startled immediately, "Send down the order to let everyone retreat for ten miles, and tell the scouts to retreat."

Li Chongyuan was so shocked, something special must have happened.

That's right.

The huge stone referred to by Xingba is not a real stone, but a man-made stone tower.

Mayan pyramid.

As soon as Li Chongyuan saw that thing, he knew it was a pyramid built by the Mayans.

During this journey, Li Chongyuan has been paying attention to the movements of the Mayans.

Today, I finally saw the Mayan architecture.

Maybe just twenty miles ahead, you can see the Mayans.

However, Li Chongyuan didn't dare to act like this.

After all, Li Chongyuan has no idea whether the Mayans are good or evil.

In the previous life, the documentary described that the Mayans were invaded by the Westerners. In [-], the last Mayan city-state was wiped out under the artillery fire of the Westerners.

From 200 to [-], the Mayans were discovered and perished, and it took less than [-] years.

In the past two years, not only the Mayan civilization was destroyed, but also the Aztec civilization.

On the ancient American continent, there were three major civilizations.

One is the Mayan civilization, the other is the Aztec civilization, and the third is the Inca civilization.

And the three major ancient civilizations in the Americas all perished under the invasion of the Westerners.

visible.

Under the invasion of the colonists, what they exterminated was not human beings, but civilization.

It takes an unknown number of years to establish a civilization, but under the invasion of the Westerners, it may not take a hundred years, but only a few years, and it is estimated that a civilization can be wiped out.

When Li Chongyuan saw this huge round stone object at this time, Li Chongyuan's first reaction was that it was a pyramid built by the Mayans.

Although Li Chongyuan has never actually seen the pyramids built by the Mayans.

But in the documentaries I watched in my previous life, there is definitely a figure of him.

to this end.

As soon as Li Chongyuan saw this thing, he immediately ordered people to retreat and called the scouts back.

Afraid?

of course.

This is not my home field.

Moreover, Li Chongyuan didn't want to have a big conflict between the two sides after he recklessly broke into other people's territory.

The people I brought with me were originally scattered everywhere.

Even if Li Chongyuan gathered everyone together and wanted to deal with this sudden situation, Li Chongyuan was a little worried.

Li Chongyuan had no idea how many Mayans were ahead.

After retreating for more than ten or twenty miles, the scouts also retreated.

Li Chongyuan called the people in charge, pointed to the distance and said: "You should have discovered just now that there are local aborigines there. As for who they are, we don't know at all at the moment. Therefore, I want to send people to reconnaissance, go there and find out the details How many people are there. In addition, let me find out all the surrounding areas. Remember, don’t conflict with these natives. If there is a conflict, you must return in time.”

"Yes, Prince Li." Everyone got the order and began to arrange.

Shortly after.

The scouts set off again to scout ahead.

But Li Chongyuan and the others retreated five miles back again.

While waiting, Li Chongyuan was a little nervous.

Everyone saw Li Chongyuan's nervousness, "Little Lord, some aborigines, we don't need to be so afraid, it's not like we haven't encountered aborigines before. When we were in the Yasha country, we encountered aborigines more than ten times, as long as we deal with them carefully , absolutely nothing will happen.”

"Which eye of yours sees me because you are afraid. I am nervous. Do you understand being nervous?" Li Chongyuan felt as if his tail had been stepped on at this moment.

Xing Ba smiled awkwardly, "Little Lang, I said the wrong thing. You are nervous, not afraid. But that is just aboriginal, you don't need to be so nervous, Xiao Lang."

"I'm nervous because I'm afraid that these aborigines don't like outsiders, and our purpose of coming here this time is not to antagonize these aborigines, but to look for crops. As far as I know, the food of these aborigines should be what we are looking for crops. If we have an affair with them and want to get their crops, it must be extremely difficult. So, this is where I am nervous." Li Chongyuan continued to look forward.

After Xingba and the others heard Li Chongyuan's words, they realized Li Chongyuan's nervousness.

Natives, of course they will not be afraid.

I have encountered aborigines more than a dozen times in the Yasha country.

Although Li Chongyuan chose to retreat every time, Xingba and the others knew that as long as they rushed to kill those aborigines, they would be able to kill all of them.

But this time it was a little different.

Li Chongyuan didn't want to make enemies with these natives, his purpose was to get their crops.

Xing Ba and the others understood what Li Chongyuan said.

Two hours later.

The scouts came to report, "The king of the county, according to our investigation, there is a small town ahead, and the population is estimated to be around 5000."

The 5000 men mentioned by the scouts are only the number capable of fighting.

The scouts were officers and soldiers of the Xiang family, and the people they scouted were only men, and they would never include the elderly, children and women among them.

"5000 people? So, at least there are 2 of these aborigines. Check again!" Li Chongyuan said.

The scouts ran.

After more than an hour.

The scouts reported again, "Reporting to the king, there are many crops near the place where the natives are located. According to our careful observation, after comparing with the picture drawn by you, the king, we found that there are several kinds of crops that are somewhat similar to the ones on the drawing. .”

"Oh? Is what you said true?" After Li Chongyuan heard the news, he suddenly recovered.

The scout nodded heavily, "This subordinate is very sure."

"Explore again. Find out the working hours and travel conditions of these indigenous people. Pay attention to whether there are people nearby. If you are found, don't return." Li Chongyuan was happy, but he still gave the order to investigate again.

Be sure to find out the situation ahead.

The news of the scout's return was great news to Li Chongyuan.

What is the purpose of coming here? Isn't it just for the seeds of the crops.

Now that there is news about the crops, Li Chongyuan must not let it go.

night.

Li Chongyuan led hundreds of people, lurking five miles away from the place where the aborigines lived.

A scout pointed to a small city-state in front of him, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, that's right there. According to our observations, these natives have already returned to their homes to rest after dark. We didn't find any patrolling people." People, and I didn’t find any secret whistle.”

"Where are the crops?" Li Chongyuan looked at the shadow of the city-state in the distance under the moonlight, but there was no fire.

The scout pointed to the south direction, and then to the east, "There are both directions."

"Send someone to touch a few and let me see if it's the crop we're looking for." After Li Chongyuan confessed, he led his people back.

that night.

When Li Chongyuan saw the crops he touched, he was both excited and relieved.

Corn, squash, and sweet potatoes are all available.

The only thing missing were the potatoes.

At dawn the next day, Li Chongyuan called Xingba, "Xingba, take 200 people to meet these natives for a while. Don't let them conflict."

"Yes, Mr. Xiao Lang." Xing Ba took the order.

Stealing, of course, is not advisable.

For this reason, Li Chongyuan could only let Xing Ba go ahead, try to get in touch with these Mayans first, see if they get along well, and then make plans.
