Chapter 338 Thrilling and exciting
"Hello players, there are indeed things you need to be careful about. First of all, you must be legal and compliant."
"What? What did you say? Legal and compliant?!" After hearing what the treasure box said, Xu Ning felt like he was still asleep.
"That's right. Wild ginseng is a national second-level protected plant. Illegal collection and trading of wild ginseng are all illegal. But this is not your original country, so you don't have to abide by this." The treasure chest continued to educate Xu Ning on the law in a serious manner.
"What else?" Xu Ning asked speechlessly.
"Choose the right time to dig it, usually in autumn or winter, because that's when the wild ginseng has the best medicinal effect."
Xu Ning:......
So she had to wait until autumn to dig? How was that possible?
The treasure box knew that Xu Ning would not wait, so it continued: "When digging wild ginseng, you also need to pay attention to the digging method and not damage the root system and growth environment of the wild ginseng. Generally speaking, you can use a small shovel or a small hoe to dig, dig up the soil around the wild ginseng, and then take out the wild ginseng intact. Finally, you need to fill the soil back to the original place to protect the growth environment of the wild ginseng."
"No need to tie a red rope or something like that?" Xu Ning asked another question.
"No need, players. This kind of red rope is only needed for thousand-year-old ginseng. The ginseng here is only a few hundred years old. It doesn't need to be tied. However, you have to be careful. There are poisonous snakes and the like nearby where wild ginseng grows."
"Okay, I get it, you can leave now." Xu Ning felt that if she listened to the treasure box's legal education again, she would not be able to help but want to beat it up.
The fat fox was still barking at its feet. For some reason Xu Ning didn't follow it into the cave.
Xu Ning waved at it: "Go and take out everything in the cave. I'll wait for you here."
The hole dug by the fat fox must be one that only it could fit into. Xu Ning didn't plan to follow and watch as he thought it was more important to dig ginseng.
This large patch of ginseng was like the radishes planted in the vegetable garden. It would take her at least three days and three nights to dig it all up.
Xu Ning took out a small shovel and hoe used for planting flowers and began to dig the soil next to the ginseng. While digging, she kept an eye out because the grass and trees here were dense and it was easy for snakes to jump out.
When the fat fox saw Xu Ning turned around and dug grass and ignored it, it turned around and finally went back into the cave.
The ewe began to eat the carrot with a crunching sound, glancing towards Xu Ning from time to time.
Xu Ning dug the ginseng carefully. When the ginseng roots appeared, she decisively gave up the tools and started digging with her hands.
Although Xu Ning didn't know much about pharmacology, he knew that every root of ginseng was very important. For example, a small piece of root of a hundred-year-old ginseng could save a life at a critical moment.
So Xu Ning dug extremely carefully, trying to dig out every root even as thin as a hair.
Xu Ning was digging so seriously that he didn't notice for a moment that a poisonous snake was slowly crawling towards him not far away.
The ewe noticed it, put down the carrot, and stared motionlessly in the direction where the poisonous snake was coming.
On the other side of the cave, a fat fox also came out with a mouthful of jewels and was running towards Xu Ning happily.
The ewe was a little anxious. The poisonous snake was getting closer and closer, but Xu Ning hadn't noticed it yet and was still digging ginseng seriously. The sheep could only kick the ground continuously to remind Xu Ning.
But by the time Xu Ning discovered it, it was too late. The poisonous snake shot towards her like an arrow.
Xu Ning tensed his whole body and tried to dodge, but at the critical moment he realized he couldn't dodge and planned to put the snake into space, but at the same moment a red light flashed, and the venomous snake that was about to bite Xu Ning's thigh was slapped away.
Xu Ning???
Xu Ning looked again and saw that the poisonous snake had been bitten into two pieces by the fat fox.
Wow, such speed and skill, worthy of a fox. The venomous snake was bitten off by it at the seven inches and is dead.
The fat fox spat out the disgusting snake aside, opened its mouth and barked at Xu Ning. The call was still so "unique", but Xu Ning no longer felt so annoyed when he heard it. He even felt at ease listening to it.
"Thank you for your hard work, little fatty. I'll treat you to a whole roast chicken tonight." Xu Ning's hands were covered in mud. He wanted to touch its head, but then he thought better of it.
When the fat fox heard her words, he jumped several times in joy on the spot, and came over to rub against Xu Ning. Xu Ning's trouser legs were covered in mud, and then he remembered that this guy had gone into a hole.
Xu Ning couldn't help but let his hand fall on its head. The conditioner he used last night was very useful. His hair felt soft, smooth and comfortable to the touch.
"Thank you, little fox." Xu Ning's eyes were so gentle that the fat fox forgot to react when he saw Xu Ning like this.
The sound of "crunch, crunch" was heard as the ewe ate carrots. Xu Ning also noticed the jewelry thrown aside by the fat fox.
This time it bit out some gold. Xu Ning took a look and found that it should be the kind that weighed ten taels each. It seemed that she was really going to be extremely rich today.
"Come on, little fox. Bring out all the treasures. I'll take care of your meals from now on!"
"Wow~" The fat fox turned around happily again, then immediately turned around and ran away again.
Xu Ning let out a breath and continued digging her ginseng.
After an afternoon, Xu Ning dug out more than a dozen 100-year-old ginsengs. She had checked the treasure box and found that the largest one was nearly 500 years old, and the smallest one was 200 years old.
And these are only a small part of what Xu Ning has dug. She dug them by picking them up. Xu Ning estimated that if she dug all the big ones, it would take at least five or six days at her speed.
Considering the safety issue, Xu Ning did not dare to stay here at night. Her safety could be guaranteed, but a fox and a sheep were not safe, and she did not want to see a python or a black bear as soon as she opened her eyes.
It got dark quickly, and it got dark even faster in the old forest because the trees were tall and the leaves were lush.
Xu Ning collected the gems and jewelry that the fat fox had brought out, took the ewe that had eaten several rounds of food out of the woods, and found a suitable location to put the RV out.
The fat fox's excitement had not yet worn off. It still remembered that Xu Ning had said he would treat it to roast chicken tonight.
Xu Ning had been digging for an entire afternoon and her hands were exhausted. She didn't want to cook anymore. After lighting the fire and letting the ewes out of their nests, Xu Ning set up the camping tables and chairs. This time, she not only took out two roast chickens, but also a family bucket.
Xu Ning put one of the roast chickens on the fox's special plate and brought it in front of it, then he tore off a chicken leg for himself and started eating.
The fat fox ate happily. Xu Ning then took out a cup of Coke. He took a sip of the Coke and a bite of the roast chicken and felt relaxed.
The fat fox was gnawing on his roast chicken, but his eyes were moving back and forth between the cup of Coke in Xu Ning's hand and the family bucket on the table.
It ate the chicken quickly because it swallowed it directly without spitting out the bones. Before Xu Ning had finished half of the roast chicken, it had already licked the plate clean.
"Little Fatty, you really can eat." Xu Ning commented.
"Wow." The chubby fox opened his mouth in response, staring straight at the family bucket.
Seeing this, Xu Ning took out a fried chicken leg and gave it to it, "Try to see if you can eat it first, it's spicy."
The fat fox immediately opened his mouth to take it and swallowed it with a few crunches.
Seeing that it didn't react, Xu Ning asked it, "Is it spicy?"
It didn't say anything, so Xu Ning asked again: "Is it delicious?"
Understanding, the fox nodded its head. Xu Ning carefully gave it another piece of chicken wing and a few pieces of popcorn chicken, and told it by the way: "Don't eat too much of this. It's too spicy and you can't stand it."
Xu Ning didn't know whether it understood or not. After it finished eating, she put two apples for it and quickly ate her own.
After eating and drinking, Xu Ning slumped in his chair and chatted with the treasure chest, "Bao, these treasures I got today can be exchanged for a lot of points."
"Yes, player. That five hundred year old ginseng alone can be exchanged for more than a billion points."
"How exciting!" These tens of billions are much easier to earn than before.
What she didn't know, and what the treasure chest didn't say, was that more than one billion were only the points that the main system could currently give, and that the ginseng was actually worth even more.
