Lu Zhe thought for a moment, and it made sense! And the female classmates were all willing to take action alone with him, obviously full of trust in him too!
How could he betray their trust?
"Okay, but there's one thing!"
"What's that?"
"In the jungle, you have to listen to me for everything, you can't touch plants you don't recognize, and you definitely can't use leaves you don't recognize as toilet paper, understand?"
Lin Qianqian blushed: "Who would do that?!"
Lu Zhe smiled casually: "No one! I'm just reminding you!"
Lu Zhe emptied his backpack, took two more pieces of toilet paper, and walked into the woods with Lin Qianqian!
"Lu Zhe, are we mainly looking for suitable tree trunks this time?"
Lu Zhe nodded: "Tree trunks are very important, but other materials are equally important! Remember these leaves!"
Lu Zhe wanted to focus on finding herbal antidotes, so he wanted Lin Qianqian to focus on other materials!
He took out his notebook and drew several leaves according to the system manual in his mind!
"What kind of leaves are these!"
"This is sweet potato leaf, this is cassava leaf, this is potato leaf. Tuber crops can not only provide the body with a lot of carbohydrates, but also provide a sense of fullness. They can be transplanted and planted near the camp!"
Lin Qianqian hurriedly took note: "I didn't expect that I could learn a lot of knowledge in the wild too! Don't worry, I'll pay attention! What else?"
"There are also fishy vegetables, amaranth and other wild vegetables, blackberries, raspberries, dragon fruit and other berries! They are all very important foods!"
"It seems that there are still quite a lot of edible things in the wild!"
"But finding them is not easy! 99% of plants in the jungle are not suitable for human consumption!"
"Got it!"
The two chatted as they walked. Lin Qianqian was also a top student, with a very strong desire to learn. No matter what Lu Zhe said, she would be very curious and take notes carefully in her little notebook.
This made Lu Zhe feel a little sense of accomplishment!
He also secretly thought: What a nice girl she is, how good would she be if she wasn't a lesbian?
He was a little doubtful about Lin Qianqian, was she really a lesbian?
Why not take this opportunity to ask.
"Hey, Qianqian, I want to ask you something, it's a bit abrupt, hope you don't mind!"
Lin Qianqian pursed her lips and smiled: "It's rare for the great survival expert to ask me, I'm honored!"
"It's not about survival!"
"What is it then?"
"Do you have a boyfriend?"
"Huh?" Lin Qianqian was very curious: "Why did you suddenly ask me this question?"
"Just casually asking! You don't have to answer if you don't want to!"
Lin Qianqian looked at Lu Zhe, hesitated for a moment, and nodded: "I guess you could say I do..."
"So you're not a lesbian?"
Lin Qianqian blushed: "I.....I also like girls......"
"So you’re bisexual?"
"Please don't use that term, it makes me feel abnormal..."
Lu Zhe smiled bitterly: Isn’t this a bit abnormal in the first place!
But everyone has their own little secrets. It takes trust for someone to tell you about it straightforwardly, there's no need to look at others through a colored lens!
Lu Zhe nodded: "Got it!"
At this moment, a refreshing fragrance came over, and the two were inevitably attracted by the floral scent!
Looking in the direction of the smell, small white, pink, and purple flowers were growing among the bushes!
It looked a bit like a dandelion, but the smell was much stronger than a dandelion!
Lu Zhe didn't know what kind of flower it was, so he quickly reminded: "Be careful!"
Lin Qianqian was so frightened that she didn't dare move!
Lu Zhe didn't know much about flower species, he could only find out by touching them!
He carefully reached out his hand and touched the petals, information about this kind of flower came to his mind!
"Inula Flower, Compositae Inula..." followed by a bunch of related introductions!
Lu Zhe skipped over directly and looked at the back!
Toxicity: Non-toxic!
Pharmacology: 1. It can prevent colds, get rid of colds! It has an expectorant and antitussive effect!
2. Antipruritic, antibacterial effects......"
Lu Zhe was relieved!
It seems that this kind of flower is not only fragrant, but also a good Chinese medicine that can help Ning Shu alleviate her symptoms!
Since his hand was already stretched out, it would look weird to shrink back abruptly. So he casually plucked the flower!
He sniffed it, then handed it to Lin Qianqian: "Don't worry, this is an inula flower, it smells really nice. It's also a pretty good antibacterial and antipruritic Chinese medicine!"
His original intention was to let Lin Qianqian record this kind of flower in her notebook!
However, not this time!
Lin Qianqian blinked her big eyes at Lu Zhe, timidly said in a soft voice: "Thank you, Lu Zhe......"
Then, blushing, she took the flower, sniffed it, and solemnly pinned the flower to her chest!
Lu Zhe was stunned!
Could this be...a misunderstanding?
But explaining the truth now would be too awkward for the girl!
Lu Zhe decided not to explain after thinking about it!
He took out a plastic bag: "Let's put some in and take it back!"
Lin Qianqian nodded, pursed her lips very happily: "We can decorate the campsite and make our home smell fragrant!"
"Our home..." Lu Zhe felt a warmth in his heart: "Yeah, good idea!"
The two picked some inula flowers, walked for a while longer, found some wild mint, also had the effect of driving away mosquitoes and relieving itching, picked some leaves and put them in the bag!
After walking a few hundred meters further, Lin Qianqian finally found the important material Lu Zhe had been looking for recently!
A sweet potato seedling!
In an inconspicuous bush, because it was blocked from sunlight by surrounding plants and its nutrients were snatched by them, its growth was not very good!
This made Lu Zhe extremely excited in his heart!
Lin Qianqian also said happily: "Hurry up and dig it out!"
"Gotta be careful, give me a card!"
"I'll hand over financial power to you!"
Lin Qianqian smiled and handed Lu Zhe a black bank card!
Lu Zhe knew that Lin Qianqian’s family was very wealthy. Just this one card had hundreds of thousands, if not millions, deposited in it, but now using it to dig soil was quite ironic.
He carefully cut the surrounding weeds, then slowly dug with the bank card!
"Lu Zhe, do you need to be so careful? It doesn't matter if you damage it a bit, it won't affect eating it!"
"I'm not worried about damaging the sweet potato, I'm afraid of damaging the stems and leaves!"
"Could it be... you want to take the whole plant back?"
"That's right. The sunlight here is all blocked by other plants. We have to find it a new place! Let it grow bigger sweet potatoes!"
It took Lu Zhe more than an hour to finally dig up the whole plant!
There were seven small sweet potato tubers on the roots, the bigger ones were as big as a fist, the smaller ones were smaller than a chicken egg!
He found a larger plastic bag to wrap up the whole plant to prevent it from withering due to moisture loss!
But in the process, he still accidentally dropped one or two leaves!
Lin Qianqian picked up the leaves and found that a lot of white juice was flowing out of the broken place. She was so frightened that she quickly threw them away!
Lu Zhe picked up the leaves: "Sweet potato leaves can also be eaten!"
