From the time travel, I became extraordinary

Chapter 290 Treasure Land
Everyone has a curiosity.

For people like Expert Dong, it would be fine if they didn't know about the other world, but now that they know about it, they can't resist the temptation of exploring the other world.

Not to mention, this was originally a political task assigned to them by their superiors.

Li Dongfeng walked forward and just had a brief conversation with them, and the group had already made a decision.

Their temporary camp was originally near the jungle in Saigon.

Expert Dong and others naturally already had detailed knowledge of some of the information about this place.

Several experts, their assistants or students and some professional security personnel, a total of 20 to 30 people, walked along the MacLehose Trail straight up the mountain.

"Professor Dong, from where do we enter the forest?"

"Don't worry. This is near Beitanyong Village. We'll go along this mountain road for a while. We'll enter from the area with the most missing people."

"Although there is no Jiang to lead the way for us, as long as we can lock down the general area, with so many of us searching carefully, we will definitely be able to find something."

"We carry satellite phones, compasses, and even individual radios with us, plus sufficient food reserves. The forest in Saigon is only a few dozen square kilometers. There is no danger for us at all!"

……

The group was full of confidence and chatted as they walked.

There are countless jungles in the country that are more rugged and dense than the mountains and forests in Saigon.

When it comes to jungle exploration, most of Professor Dong and his team are very experienced and professional.

When the order came down from above, although they were informed that this trip would involve certain risks, most people were already accustomed to it.

After all, they had received similar instructions before each exploration mission.

There aren't any large ferocious beasts in the jungles of Saigon. No matter how dangerous it is to explore such a place, how dangerous can it be?
As for the other world or something like that, people who have not seen it with their own eyes or experienced it personally will definitely have doubts about its authenticity.

The group walked along the MacLehose Trail for more than an hour. Finally, after several experts reached a consensus, they plunged into the dense jungle beside the mountain trail.

The long dark night in the strange area, where it was difficult to see one's fingers when stretching out one's hand, finally passed.

Although the sun hanging in the sky is not very dazzling, its sunlight penetrates the dense branches and leaves of the jungle and falls between the mountains and forests, ultimately making the world much clearer.

“Is this… ginseng?”

"The dark ginseng body seems to have a slightly wrong color. Apart from this difference, it is no different from normal ginseng in other aspects."

"Judging from the stem and the texture, this ginseng should be around 200 years old."

"We have just started searching and we have already gained such a harvest. It is absolutely not an exaggeration to call this area a treasure land."

……

As soon as the sky began to brighten, Jiang Yao, who had been huddled at the foot of the strange rock, began to move.

With his skill of identifying medicines, he could identify any existing medicinal material at a glance as long as it appeared in his sight.

Of course, although he knew about them, he didn't know how to pick every kind of medicinal herb.

After all, from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, any insect or weed has certain medicinal value and can barely be used as a medicinal material.

For Jiang Yao, only those things that can greatly replenish his qi and blood and benefit his cultivation are worth picking.

He took the medicinal herb he had just dug out and examined it over and over again.

From his point of view, apart from the slightly strange color, this thing is undoubtedly a ginseng.

"The 150-year-old Polygonatum I found earlier also tends to be gray-black in color."

"Perhaps, it is because of the special environment here that the colors of these herbs have changed to this!" "As long as the medicinal properties do not change too much and can improve my efficiency in practicing martial arts, these herbs can be called treasures to me."

Jiang Yao put the ginseng into his storage space and muttered to himself.

Only one or two hours had passed since we left the stone.

The ginseng in front of him was the second precious medicinal herb he had discovered that was over a hundred years old.

If this happened in the real world, he wanted to get the 150-year-old Polygonatum and this 200-year-old ginseng, but even if he was given a year, he probably wouldn't be able to do it.

It’s just a pity that the Polygonatum sibiricum and ginseng he got can only replenish qi and blood for cultivation, but can’t increase his lifespan at all.

Although he has the skill to identify medicines, there are no medicinal herbs in reality. Unless they have a unique smell or look very special, he will take a closer look.

Otherwise, even if such a treasure was placed in front of him, he would not be able to recognize it.

"Being in this strange place, my lifespan is being consumed all the time."

"Although these medicinal herbs such as Polygonatum sibiricum and Ginseng are very helpful to my martial arts practice, if I put all my energy into searching for these things, it will definitely be more trouble than it's worth."

"If possible, let's explore as much territory as possible to see if we can get out of this forest!"

After thinking for a while, Jiang Yao sighed and thought to himself.

If you walk through this strange area without any reference points to guide you, you will probably end up going around in circles.

By leaving a spiritual mark on that gray-brown tree and connecting three spiritual marks in a straight line, Jiang Yao can determine his position and keep moving in one direction.

His spiritual imprint has a sensing distance of fifty to sixty kilometers.

When the tree where he left his mark is beyond this distance limit, the mark will slowly dissipate until it disappears completely.

At this time, Jiang Yao only needs to add another mark at his location, so that the route he takes can always be a straight line.

With this method, unless this piece of forest is really boundless, he will get out sooner or later.

In the following section of the journey, Jiang Yao's speed increased a lot.

Although he did not deliberately search for medicinal herbs such as high-year-old ginseng and Polygonatum, he still had three more in his storage space.

Just a few hours ago, the ginseng he had just put into the storage space was more than four hundred years old.

In this strange area, only weird creatures are rampant, and no living creatures can be seen.

Ginseng or Polygonatum sibiricum are great tonics for qi and blood, and are rare treasures for ordinary people. But in the eyes of those strange creatures, these things are probably not much different from roadside weeds.

In this unique environment, it doesn't seem strange that the medicinal materials found are a little older.

"The sky is slowly getting darker. In a little while, the sun will set and night will fall."

"I walked through the forest for a whole day and harvested five medicinal herbs. Even if the distance I traveled was less than 800 miles, it should be at least 500 miles."

"After dark, it's not suitable to travel at all. Let's find a place to rest first."

……

Jiang Yao slowed down his pace, looked up at the sky, and muttered to himself.

With his speed, if he burst out with full force, he could indeed be compared to a sports car, but rushing all the way at that speed would consume a lot of energy and it would be impossible to sustain it.

In one day, we covered more than 500 miles, with a speed of about 20 to 30 kilometers per hour. Although this speed is not fast, it is already very acceptable.

After all, the environment in the mountains and forests is very complicated. Although he has spiritual marks as a reference that allows him to go straight all the way, he inevitably needs to climb mountains and cross ridges in the middle.
