Chapter 71 - 71 71 He Is Truly Convinced
?Chapter 71: Chapter 71 He Is Truly Convinced Chapter 71: Chapter 71 He Is Truly Convinced Han Chi hadn’t expected Luo Ning to actually know.
He pointed to other trees and plants, continuously asking her about them.
Luo Ning recognized them all and mentioned their effects as well.
Afterwards, Han Chi said with a stunned face, “You’re really amazing. It took me several years to learn most of the plants in the tropical forest.”
His uncle was a botanist, and since he enjoyed it himself, plus it was required for missions, he had learned a lot, which was one of his skills.
Thus, wherever he went on a mission, he could deduce many things based on the surrounding plants or use their effects to his advantage.
Fu Yunbing, who had been silent all along, chuckled lightly, “Looks like someone else will take over your nickname as the ‘walking encyclopedia of plants’.”
Luo Ning smiled, “My mother loves flowers and plants, and I was influenced by her since I was young. That’s how I know all this.”
It was true; she really did learn a lot with her mother from a young age. She had read and remembered almost all the encyclopedias or related books about botany.
Han Chi, impressed, said with a smile, “Even so, you’re truly impressive.”
“There were several plants just now that I didn’t recognize at all. You knew even the obscure ones. Why don’t you educate everyone on this knowledge next?”
He was genuinely impressed.
Lu Xun said with a smile, “I think that’s a great idea.”
Luo Ning’s voice was pleasing. She radiated a captivating brilliance when she talked about these plants.
Tong Jia and others also said in agreement, “Yes, Little Ningning, please keep sharing this information with us. Reading books is too boring, but listening to you explain is very interesting.”
During their journey, they didn’t have other topics to discuss, so listening to Luo Ning describe plants was indeed fascinating.
In fact, they hadn’t anticipated Luo Ning being so knowledgeable.
Luo Ning chuckled and said, “Sure.”
Following that, whenever they encountered new plants, Luo Ning would educate everyone about their uses and whether they were poisonous.
She would occasionally share anecdotes or stories from the field of botany, never letting it get boring.
When coming across certain plants, Luo Ning collected some of them.
“What do you need these plants for?” asked Han Chi, curious.
Luo Ning replied, “Crushing and mixing these plants, and scattering them around oneself or one’s sleeping bags, can help keep insects, ants, and snakes away.”
Han Chi’s eyes lit up, “I didn’t know they could do that. I’ll have to remember this.”
Saying this, he took out his phone, photographed the plants Luo Ning collected, and noted down the approximate proportions in his notepad, planning to try it himself.
These plants could be useful to soldiers stationed or fighting along certain borders all year round.
Not only were the guests captivated by her explanations, but the audience watching the live broadcast was also engaged.
[Luo Ning knows so much; watching today’s live stream really expanded my knowledge.]
[Me too, I never knew botany could be so interesting; I’ve started liking it.]
[Luo Ning is definitely a walking encyclopedia of plants! The handsome team leader couldn’t take his eyes off her.]
[She can even make medicine powder that repels insects and snakes. Luo Ning knows a lot.]
[Ningbao is so awesome.]
The topics “Luo Ning Drawing Talisman” and “Luo Ning as a Walking Encyclopedia of Plants” quickly trended on the search charts.
They attracted many fans of geomancy and plant enthusiasts, and even some experts came to watch the live feed, causing the view count to continuously rise, making the director’s grin crooked from delight.
His decision to bring Luo Ning on the show had been more than wise.
nbsp;After three hours of walking, the guests and contestants looked exhausted, many complaining that their feet hurt and they couldn’t walk any further.
Especially along the way, when several other guests couldn’t carry their bags anymore, only the physically fit participants could take the initiative to carry them for them.
Among the guests, only Luo Ning, Lu Xun, and Ji Xinghang were in the best condition.
However, no matter what, Luo Ning was still a girl. She not only explained to everyone along the way and looked spirited, but she also carried her own bag, which surprised everyone.
Similarly, those watching the live broadcast felt she was not delicate, and their impression of her kept improving.
Han Chi and another checked the time and the sky.
“Since you can’t walk anymore, let’s stay in this clearing tonight.”
Han Chi then asked everyone, “Do you want to go find food, or eat what you brought with you?”
Fu Yunbing added, “The director told us a rule earlier, you need to be self-sufficient, eat what your own team finds, and other teams can’t mooch food or drinks.”
“What if everyone finds it together?” asked Tong Jia.
Fu Yunbing replied, “If found together, you can cook and eat together, but we will monitor to prevent any team from being lazy and intentionally mooching off others.”
“This is all instructed by the director, and he will keep an eye on it too.” he added.
Tong Jia and others couldn’t help but complain, “The director is so inconsiderate.”
Wei Yao and Chai Jing, rubbing their sore backs and legs, said, “Our team will eat what we brought first.”
“Our team as well, we really can’t walk anymore,” said Tong Jia after checking with Bo Xiangxiang and then sitting down on the ground, out of breath.
Bo Xiangxiang had been unable to walk for a while, but because of the live broadcast, she had been enduring it, otherwise, she would definitely be criticized as pretentious, and now she was even less willing to go find food.
Ji Xinghang looked at Su Qinglan.
Feeling embarrassed, Su Qinglan said, “Teacher Ji, I don’t have the strength to go look for anything anymore, shall we just eat what’s in the backpacks?”
She used to go to the gym and run quite often and thought she was physically fit but walking that much really tired her, and her feet were also sore.
Ji Xinghang nodded, “Alright then.”
Meanwhile, Lu Xun asked Luo Ning, “What about us? Should we go find food?”
Walking that bit was not a big deal for Luo Ning; she said with a smile, “I still have energy, how about you guys?”
“If possible, I suggest we go find food. It’s better to keep the compressed biscuits in the backpacks for critical moments,” she added.
Lu Xun said, “I also still have energy, let’s go find some then.”
Shan Zhen and others also said, “We’re still okay too.”
Luo Ning nodded, “Rest for ten minutes, and then we’ll go look.”
Luo Zeyu asked enthusiastically, “Can we catch some wild chickens or rabbits to roast and eat?”
Han Chi laughed, “You’re thinking too much. Have you encountered any along the way?”
Luo Zeyu thought for a moment, “Seems like I really haven’t.”
“What should we find to eat then?” he asked, looking at Luo Ning.
Luo Ning smiled and said, “According to my observation, there’s a river about a kilometer away from here, let’s go see if we can catch some fish.”
“There are many birds in the tropical forest, we can also look for bird eggs.”
“There are also quite a few wild fruits; I can recognize which ones are edible.”
Such a tropical forest is a natural food storehouse, it just depends on whether we know how to find them.
Hearing Luo Ning’s words, Luo Zeyu and the others’ eyes lit up, “Indeed, we still need to rely on Teacher Luo.”
“Teacher Luo, how did you determine that there’s a river about a kilometer away?” Lu Ran asked curiously.
They hadn’t encountered any rivers along the way, how did Teacher Luo know?
