Traveling through ancient times: Savages are hungry for food

Chapter 308 Cassava

Everyone walked through the cotton fields and headed out towards the valley.

The sun gradually sets in the west, and the warmth it brings to people is no longer felt, and the temperature gradually drops.

The wind blew, and the dense, towering branches and leaves in the forest rustled.

A chill gradually crept over my heart.

We then walked for more than an hour.

Sang Tian didn't find anything else.

Except for a small pear orchard.

The pear blossoms had long since fallen, turning into spring mud. The tiny fruit was wrapped in the calyx that had not yet fallen clean.

Everyone continued walking along the road.

About another half an hour passed, and still nothing.

Sang Tian felt that he would not discover anything this time.

It was almost dusk.

Plus, the gains from this trip are more than enough.

Found cranberries, cape gooseberries, soybeans, corn, sorghum, cotton...

This has already exceeded Sang Tian's expectations.

So Sang Tian told Zhen.

"It's getting late, let's go back."

The Black Soil people took Tianlang and took a shortcut. It only took an hour and a half to get back to the Black Soil tribe from here.

So everyone hurried back with smiles on their faces.

Soon, we encountered an uphill slope with a 45-degree inclination.

Sang Tian is now exhausted.

Alas, it’s still empty.

He was climbing up, panting and hunched over.

Suddenly, his feet were tripped by something like a tree root, and he fell forward due to inertia and weightlessness.

The wind whistled softly in my ears.

Just when Sang Tian thought he was going to fall face first onto the ground.

The whole person was picked up by the waist by a powerful force.

The broad and powerful arm tightly embraced Sang Tian's breeze-like waist, and then the arm pushed Sang Tian behind him, and Sang Tian's head rested on the chest of the owner of the arm.

The whole process took only two or three seconds, and Sang Tian hadn't even reacted yet.

The owner of the arm directly put his other hand around Sang Tian's legs and picked her up with one hand.

It even shook a little.

By the time Sang Tian reacted, she was lying safely on Cang's chest.

It is as vast as a wilderness, as solid as a mountain, as gentle as flowing water, and as lush as spring flowers.

At this moment, a large group of people were filled with cheering shouts.

And the sound of whistling.

"Cang, you're so agile! You picked him up in one go!"

"Cang, you are so charming! Please teach me someday!"

"Oh my, I'm going to fall! Come and pick me up~"

Sang Tian's face turned red in an instant.

At this time, the tip of Cang's ear was like a red apple, so beautiful and tempting.

Seeing that Sang Tian was fine, Cang slowly put Sang Tian down.

Sang Tian stopped and kicked the "tree root" that had just tripped her.

Damn it.

It makes me so embarrassed!

Sang Tian caught sight of this "tree root" out of the corner of his eye.

But with just this one glance, Sang Tian froze in place, as if he had been struck by lightning and turned into a vegetable.

Cang softly asked, "Sang, what's wrong?"

Sang Tian's head was buzzing with a roar, and her ears were almost as bad. Cang's concerned question didn't even register with her.

It was obvious that Sang must have discovered some extraordinary food.

No one disturbed her anymore, but stayed quietly by the side.

Sang Tian carefully looked at the protruding "root" on the ground and the stems and leaves growing next to the root.

Looking around, this 45-degree slope is densely covered with these plants!

Its stem stands upright, between four and six meters tall. It is thick and fleshy, and its colors range from green, reddish-brown, to purple-brown.

Its leaves are deeply palmately lobed, lanceolate to oblong-lanceolate, bright green on the surface and slightly lighter on the underside, without hairs, and with purple-red or green markings.

Even though Sang Tian already had the answer in her heart.

But her nerves were so agitated that she wondered if she was dazzled or had made a mistake.

After all, finding food that was filling and nutritious today was enough to make her ecstatic.

If this is really what Sang Tian thought.

I'm afraid that even if he's not crazy, he's not far away.

Sang Tian slowly placed his palm on the leaf.

Communicated with the system through mind control for testing.

A cold, mechanical voice was heard.

"[Ding, ancient cassava detected.

The leaves and roots of cassava can be used as medicine, which has the effect of detoxification and swelling. It is mainly used to treat symptoms such as sores, swelling, scabies, etc.

Ancient cassava is sweet and delicious, tender and fluffy, rich in starch, cellulose, vitamins, and minerals such as calcium and phosphorus. It can be eaten fresh or made into cassava syrup, vegetable soup, or pudding with coconut and banana. Cassava leaves can also be used as feed for silkworms, fish, and other creatures.

Ancient cassava can reach lengths of 40 to 55 centimeters, with some even longer. The tuber's skin, a thin, smooth surface, ranges from light yellow to dark yellow, pale red, and purple-red. The flesh inside is white or light yellow, dense, and rich in starch.

?It’s cassava after all!

Sang Tian clenched his fists tightly, his chest heaving violently, and the surging blood in his heart could no longer be suppressed.

The tribesmen were excited to see Sang Tian come to his senses.

Food must have been discovered again.

Lei asked solemnly, "Sang, what did you find?"

Sang Tian's mind was clear at this moment.

The voice could not help but rise several degrees, the tone was full of excitement and excitement,

“This is called cassava!

You can put it together with taro!

In fact, the starch content of cassava is higher than that of taro, and it gives you a stronger sense of fullness than taro.

It is a food that can fill your stomach and is nutritionally balanced.

And it’s big and produces a lot of fruit!”

As soon as these words came out.

The Tianlang people were all furious again.

"What! Even more filling than taro?"

"Wow, this is incredible! It's huge, so plentiful, and it fills up your stomach!"

"That's great! With these foods, we won't be afraid even if the number of people increases to over a thousand. We have plenty of confidence."

"It's really the blessing of the Sirius God! He gave Sang to our Sirius tribe! He's simply Sirius' lucky star!"

But the Black Soil people were confused.

They didn't know what the taro Tianlang was talking about was or what it tasted like.

It is impossible to imagine how great cassava is.

But no matter what, you can tell that this must be an important and filling food!

This female is simply shocking.

His knowledge was so broad that it really shocked them.

What a mysterious and admirable existence!

"All right!

Cassava, like taro, is buried underground and it is not yet the season for it to mature.

Let’s note the location and dig it out when autumn comes!

But I can warn everyone: never eat cassava without proper preparation! It's poisonous and can cause vomiting and diarrhea at best, or even death at worst!

When they heard that cassava was poisonous, many people's faces suddenly became heavy!

Is it poisonous? Can I still eat it?

Sang Tian comforted him, "Don't worry, as long as it goes through those steps carefully and is clean, there will be absolutely no problem!

I promise you all!"

Sang Tian's words were like a magic needle that stabilized the sea.

Since Sang said that there would be no problem if it was handled rigorously, they were willing to believe it!

So everyone started walking again.
