Chapter 1513: Chapter 1513-wood sorrel

Humans were social animals, and the more people there were, the more secure they felt. Zhang Zian had camped in the desert before, but at that time, he had a large group of people, excellent equipment, and powerful vehicles with him. Now, he was alone, and his equipment was only the average level of a wild camping person. He walked on foot. More importantly, there were no large beasts in the dense desert. As long as he set up a tent, he could ignore poisonous snakes and scorpions, but in the primitive forest

In the evening, the fog was thicker, and it was difficult to light a fire with wet dead branches. Zhang Zian had to use solid alcohol to help ignite the fire.

After that, he boiled water and cooked again. There was no difference from lunch, except that the taste of the canned food had changed, and a pot of light tea was boiled to warm his body.

The spotted owl that he had picked up during the day was perched on a tree branch above the tent. It was afraid of the bonfire a few meters away. Its eyes were unusually bright at night, like two searchlights reflecting the light.

Squeak

Zhang Zian heard Pis strange cry and saw that its two fists were clenched. He walked over and opened its hands to see that its palms had blisters.

Pi had a lot of fun playing in the tree today, and it even got carried away. It forgot that its hands were more suitable for the touch of the keyboard than the rough bark. It ignored the fact that it was actually an otaku monkey, and its palms did not have calluses that other monkeys had over the years. It did not realize that something was wrong until its palms were hot and burning, but it did not dare to tell everyone because it was its fault.

Zhang Zian didnt blame it. It was like a child who stayed at home all day to study. It would be strange if it didnt go crazy after suddenly coming to the wild.

He burst the blisters, disinfected it, and applied medicine. Finally, he wrapped it up with bandages. His bandaging skills were bad. After all, he was not a professional nurse. It was enough as long as it was practical. But tomorrow, Pi definitely couldnt swing around on the branches. It could either walk obediently, which was not what monkeys with long arms and short legs were good at, or go back to the phone.

The other Elfins were also tired after a day of walking. They even missed the days of riding in the desert. Their memories always beautified the past, and they selectively forgot the fact that the temperature in the car in the desert was no less than that of a steamer.

Youre giving me nuts again? Where are the fresh vegetables? Where are the fresh fruits? You idiot, are you trying to make me malnourished? Richard was not satisfied. He used his bird claws to poke around in the stainless steel plate, which was filled with mixed nuts.

Theres freeze-dried fruit, but I didnt bring much. You have to eat it sparingly. Zhang Zian opened a small bag of freeze-dried fruits and put them on its plate, including blueberries, strawberries, mangoes, pineapples, and so on. Although the freeze-dried fruits were light and portable, they took up too much s.p.a.ce, so he couldnt bring a lot.

Normally, Richard would only grumble a little before burying his head in the food, but he felt that he had lost face during the day and wanted to regain his dignity, so he pushed the fruit aside in disdain and yelled,Dont try to fool me with these freeze-dried food! The fruits must be fresh to be delicious!

Zhang Zian didnt know what it was up to.If you dont want to eat it, then forget it. If you dont want to eat it, then Ill eat it.

Richard was anxious when he saw Zian put the freeze-dried strawberry Mango into his mouth, but he had to pay the price to get back at Zian. So, he flapped his wings and flew to a nearby plant with beautiful heart-shaped leaves, poked his head out to peck at the fruit, and even said with great relish,Kaka! Its so sweet and delicious!

Have you seen master beis survival in the wilderness? In the wilderness, the most authentic way of survival is to use local materials. I despise people like you who bring big and small bags into the wilderness! It called out proudly.

Most of the other Elfins were carnivores and had no interest in fruits, so its clamoring did not cause anyone to be envious, jealous, and hate, so it made even more noise.

There are only a few edible plants in the forest, Zhang Zian kindly reminded her.And even less of them can be eaten raw. Dont cut yourself off from the party and the people just to show off!

Kaka! While you were trying to make a living, I was learning and charging myself. I know what I can eat and what I can t, so you dont have to worry about me.

Richard was very confident. Hed noticed this patch of plants before dark and saw a gold flower rat hurriedly escape from the gra.s.s with a reddish-brown fruit in its mouth. Since gold flower rats could eat, Richard could probably eat as well.

Zhang Zian was too lazy to care about it, but he thought that it would be disgusting if it ate something bad and p.o.o.ped all the way. So he walked over curiously to see what it was eating.

When he saw the plant clearly, he picked up Richard by the feathers on the back of his head.Dont eat it. You cant eat this.

Gah?

Caught off guard, Richard flapped his wings and tried to break free.Dont stop me. Are you jealous? Honestly, admit that youre jealous, and Ill share some with you!

You ate it just because you knew what it was? This is an Oregonian sorrel, a plant that is native to the redwood forest. This plant is indeed edible, and whether its its flower, fruit, leaf, or root, its edible for humans. As for parrots This plant contains too much hydrochloric acid. If you dont want to get a bone fracture due to calcium deficiency or have to undergo surgery due to kidney stones, youd better spit out the half-fruit in your birds beak as soon as possible. He said.

Gah?

Richard was shocked when he heard that, and the remaining half of the fruit in his mouth fell to the ground.

Thats right, parrots cant eat food that contains too much silicate. Dont you know that? When have I ever fed you spinach? Zhang Zian sighed helplessly.

P-paralysis? Kidney stones? Arent you the only one who has kidney stones? He has stones because he has not used his kidney for a long time Richard was so shocked that he spoke incoherently.

Whether it was human or animal, the consequences of calcium deficiency were very serious. The Gra.s.se in spinach would combine with calcium to form calcium chloride. Not only would it severely reduce the absorption of calcium, but it would also acc.u.mulate in the urinary system and form stones. The smaller the animal, the more troublesome it was to get gallstones, and the operation would take half of the animals life.

When people ate spinach, they would not eat it raw. Instead, they would first put it in boiling water and melt it with high temperature. Even so, only a large part of it could be removed, not all of it. However, considering the nutritional value of spinach, it was still worth it.

For parrots, spinach and any other vegetables with high oathless acid content could not be eaten, let alone eaten raw. It was just that other vegetables were not as common as spinach, so it often took it as a typical example.
