As soon as Xiaoxi saw the waterfowls by the water, she flew over to Zhang Taiping to play with them, but when Grimace reached the waterside, the birds were screaming in shock.

Zhang Taiping squatted by the water and washed his face. The cool lake water stimulated his nerves and he immediately became more energetic. Then he sat on a stone casually and took out a cigarette to smoke.After drinking some water by the water, Grimace didn't have fun like Xiaoxi, but squatted quietly beside Zhang Taiping, it was always so stable and heartfelt.

In the afternoon, the sun became softer, and the sky in the mountains was always darker than outside. At this moment, there was already a mountain breeze, and the sparkling water surface was rippling with the afterglow of the setting sun.This situation and the warm wind blowing on the face make people feel relaxed and lazy unconsciously.

Zhang Taiping smoked two cigarettes in a row, lying on the stone by the water, feeling the tranquility.It wasn't until the sun reached the top of the mountain in the west that the light gradually dimmed, so I called Xiaoxi with a grimace and went around to the southeast edge of the reservoir.

The big rock that sealed the entrance of the cave was intact, Zhang Taiping picked it up with both hands and put it beside him easily.

Nothing in the valley seemed to have changed, Zhang Taiping looked around, and there was no trace of anyone visiting the stone house.

The main purpose of Zhang Taiping's visit this time is to move the two big osmanthus trees into the space first, and then find time to transplant them into his own garden.Without wasting any more time in other places, he took out the shovel and began to look beside the two osmanthus trees to find a place to shovel.

These two trees are very old, and the root system underneath must be huge and cumbersome. If you want to dig them up, you need at least a big hole with a diameter of six meters. As for the depth, it depends on the specific situation of the digging.After confirming the position and drawing a circle, digging began. It is not a small project if one person does it.

Xiaoxi couldn't bear to wait by the side, stayed in the valley for a while, then ran out for a while until the sky was full of stars, and then stopped to stand on another tree to rest.On the contrary, ghost faces have been wandering around the stone house in the valley as a warning.

When I finally dug the six-meter-diameter pit to a depth of two meters, I looked at my watch and it was already past three o'clock in the morning.Let go of the shovel and climb out of the big pit to write something outside. This is really not something normal people can do.Smoke a cigarette, drink some water and jump down into the pit to continue.

The outline of the entire tree root has been dug out, what needs to be done now is to cut off the surrounding root system, otherwise if all these fibrous roots are dug up, even a ten-meter-large pit may not be able to be dug, so only the The main part is to ensure that the tree can survive after transplanting, as for the fibrous roots to re-grow in the future.

He took out the ax that had been prepared, and chopped a circle along the wall of the big pit, and the tree roots thick as arms snapped off.After cutting off the fibrous roots, the main root was left for temporary fixation. With the ax pinned around the waist, he climbed to the top of the tree, and swung the ax to cut off the excess branches.

This is an inevitable process of transplanting huge trees. Cut off the excess branches to facilitate the transfer, but more importantly, the root system of the tree has a process of adapting to the environment just after transplanting. If the branches and leaves above escape the luxuriant transpiration The effect will be enhanced accordingly, but the ability to transport water under the roots cannot meet the requirements for transpiration. This is a situation where it is impossible to make ends meet, and the trees will die due to excessive water loss.

Cut off most of the branches, leaving only a few main trunks.Generally speaking, it should be cut off completely, but Zhang Taiping has a spring of space, so some branches and leaves can be kept properly.

After coming down from the tree, I first put the branches I saw into the space, and it is also hard firewood to bring back. It is best to steam steamed buns and cook things during the Chinese New Year.

He didn't rush to use the ax to put the nearly bare laurel tree, but used his mental power to test to see if he could put it into the space now.It didn't start suddenly, but just tried it lightly. Sure enough, the spirit extended to the osmanthus tree connected to the earth, and after that, it gave birth to the feeling of a gnat shaking the tree.

Picking up the ax and jumping into the pit three or two times, the main root that was deeply embedded in the ground was cut off. After a slight push, the bare tree stump fell to the ground.Xiaoxi, who was resting on another tree, was so frightened that she flew into the sky and screamed.

After cutting off all the roots below with an axe, the fallen laurel tree disappeared in a moment of thought.Zhang Taiping also followed into the space, dug a hole to bury the osmanthus tree, and then poured some space spring water on it.

After I came out, I looked at my watch and it was close to five o'clock. It took me a whole night to dig such a tree, and I planned to go home tonight. It seemed that I didn't have time to dig another tree.You can only wait until you have time to come in and dig out.

Refill the soil around the pit. As for the few young ginseng that grew under the tree and now have lost the environment for regrowth, Zhang Taiping transplanted all of them into the space.

After finishing everything, it was already bright, and when we left the valley, we used stones to seal the entrance to the valley again, and then grabbed some wild game, cleaned it by the lake, and roasted it anywhere.After eating and playing, clean up all the traces on the water's edge with water. This is not a prudence, but an instinctive habit of mountain people when they go to the mountains to do things.

Satisfied with food and drink, he walked towards the outside of the mountain with a grimace and a little joy under the golden sunlight that just fell.

This is the time to go out of the mountains and wait until the evening when we get home, and with the extra time for picking herbs on the road, it will be night when we go back. This is exactly what Zhang Taiping wants.

Coming up from under the reservoir, I stood on a small hill and thought about it, but I didn’t return from the road I walked twice before, let alone the road from the west. What happened on that road was too horrible. He won't set foot again for a long time.Instead, head towards the east where no one has set foot.The more primitive the place is, the more medicinal materials there are.

Going to the east is indeed right, few people set foot on it, and there are really many kinds of medicinal materials inside, and the age is not short.Zhang Taiping was not in a hurry, he and Xiaoxi were very busy.

Xiaoxi finally found another good thing, flew back and chirped on Zhang Taiping's shoulder.If it were to search alone, it might not have such great enthusiasm, but if it is with Zhang Taiping, it will be very hardworking. It is fun to be with others, and more importantly, it can be appreciated and rewarded by Zhang Taiping .

"What good things did you find again?" Zhang Taiping asked with a smile.

The little guy honked twice proudly, and led Zhang Taiping to fly towards the thing it found.

Zhang Taiping's grimace followed closely behind, the distance was not close, and it took more than ten minutes to get there.In a place with dense forests and damp land, there is a small plant with a leaf shape similar to bamboo leaves.Zhang Taiping recalled for a while and remembered what kind of drug it was, the famous Huang Jing.

Polygonatum, also known as chicken head ginseng, is used as medicine with rhizomes. It has the functions of invigorating qi and nourishing yin, invigorating the spleen, moistening the lungs, and benefiting the kidney. It is a well-known traditional Chinese medicine.It is very effective for nourishing the body of both men and women.

Polygonatum likes humid climate conditions, has the characteristics of shade-loving, cold-resistant, and afraid of drought. It does not grow well in dry areas, but it grows well in humid and shaded environments.It grows well in loamy soil with deep and thick soil layer, loose and fertile, good drainage and water retention; it is not suitable for plant growth in barren, dry and sticky land.

From these few sentences, we can understand that damp and fertile places are suitable for the growth of sealwort.But this place is covered with rotting leaves and the environment is damp and humid, so the sealwort growing there must be of good quality.

Zhang Taiping took out the shovel for fear of breaking the roots below, so he started digging from a distance.Unexpectedly, the first shovel went down and almost dug a sealwort. Putting the shovel aside, he used a branch to push the loose soil away, revealing a sealwort as thick as an arm inside.

This sealwort rhizome grows horizontally, plump and fleshy, yellowish-white, slightly oblate.There are several stem scars, the stem scars are thicker, the diameter of the thickest part can reach 2.5cm, and a few fibrous roots grow.

Zhang Taiping carefully dug it out from the soil, and because the soil was soft and loose, there was no damage at all.Seeing such a big sealwort, Zhang Taiping was also full of surprises.

Most Chinese herbal medicines are more valuable the older they are, and Polygonatum is no exception.Most of the ones I have seen before are artificially planted, and they will be harvested and dug in one or two years. They are almost as thick as a thumb. I have never seen such an eye-catching Polygonatum, and I don’t know how many years it has grown here. up.

After Zhang Taiping put this sealwort into the space, he picked up the shovel and dug it from a farther place. If one is not guaranteed, there will be a second one of the same size. If it is accidentally dug up, it will be a huge loss. It is better to dig carefully and from a distance.

It took nearly half an hour to dig out this piece of yellow essence. The big ones were moved into the space, part of the small ones were also moved in, and the rest remained where they were.The most taboo thing for people in the mountains to go to the mountains to collect herbs is to cut off the roots due to greed. Basically, people with a little common sense would not do such stupid things as cutting off the roots.

After playing, reward Xiaoxi with a few bright red strawberries. It’s good to have Xiaoxi follow into the mountains. You can always find good medicinal materials, even if they are buried in the ground, this ability is really amazing.

Of course, not all the good things can be found. Most of the time, the things it finds are based on its own preferences. The most common one is ginseng.However, there is no reaction to some medicinal herbs that are not very nourishing but have a medical effect and are of great value.

From this, Zhang Taiping infers that Xiaoxi's ability should be to sense the aura of plants. Generally, those herbs with strong nourishing effects carry more aura, such as ginseng, aged Polygonatum and Polygonum multiflorum.

As for its liking to steal beautiful and shiny things, it has nothing to do with its ability to sense aura, it's just a matter of personal preference.As soon as Xiaoxi saw the waterfowls by the water, she flew over to Zhang Taiping to play with them, but when Grimace reached the waterside, the birds were screaming in shock.

Zhang Taiping squatted by the water and washed his face. The cool lake water stimulated his nerves and he immediately became more energetic.
