【Quick Wear】My Years as a Mother-in-law

Chapter 324: Primitive Tribe Chieftain Mother-in-law 44

"Mom, look at this tree, it seems to be able to produce milk?" Ying was amazed. She, who was always calm, couldn't help but exclaimed.

Yun Xi leaned over to take a look. It was a towering tree with white sap constantly flowing out from the broken trunk.

System: "This is an advanced version of the Beast World Milk Tree, called the Deylo Milk Tree. When you cut the bark with a knife, a white, milky gum will ooze out. The cut will quickly disappear. Its color, taste, and nutritional content are similar to milk. You can consume this "tree milk" just like drinking milk. Boil the milk with water, and the unpleasant smell of the original juice will disappear. The milk tree also has many benefits and uses. It can be used as medicine to treat colds, fevers, bronchitis, and indigestion."

Yun Xi was amazed. She took a bucket and an axe, chopped off the bark, collected half a bucket of milk, added half a bucket of water and boiled it. Sure enough, there was a milky aroma.

"Mom, it's amazing."

Xing murmured.

Yun Xi laughed heartily, "It really is our ancestral land, a blessed place! Do you see that tree? It's a sago palm tree, which can produce rice."

"rice?"

Tao's eyes lit up like light bulbs. She couldn't forget the delicious rice she had eaten at her grandma's house once, but unfortunately she never ate it again.

The sago palm, also known as the "rice tree," is found primarily in Southeast Asia, including the Malay Archipelago and Indonesia. Despite its name, the tree doesn't actually produce coconuts, but instead produces sago, a starchy product similar to rice.

The starch content of the sago palm is very high. A mature sago palm can provide about 100 kilograms (200 pounds) of dry starch, enough for a family of four to eat for a year.

In addition, the bark, shoots and petioles of the sago palm tree have multiple uses: the bark can be used as raw material for textiles, the shoots can be eaten as a delicious vegetable, and the petioles are used to make building materials.

She knew this because she liked eating sago in milk tea and was afraid it was made of plastic, so she looked up information and found out it was actually made of tree bark. There are so many sago palm trees here, so wouldn't that mean...

And most importantly, the plants in the animal world are taller and the yield is naturally higher. The taste is not yet known, but the yield alone is enough to excite everyone.

"And there are baobab trees and breadfruit trees over there! Wow! This is really a paradise." Yun Xi was shocked by the rich resources here.

Cai quickly asked, "What is that?"

The baobab tree (scientific name: Baobab), a large deciduous tree in the family Bombacaceae, Malvaceae, is a family of trees. Its fruit is rich in starch, sweet and sour, and rich in calcium and vitamins, making it a staple food. Furthermore, the tree's trunk can store large amounts of water, making it a "natural reservoir" that provides drinking water during the dry season.

The fruit of the breadfruit tree is also rich in starch and tastes sweet and juicy. It is often used as a staple food by locals. The fruit of the breadfruit tree can be eaten directly or processed into flour, cakes and other foods. In times of food shortage, the fruit of the breadfruit tree can provide a large amount of energy and nutrition.

"In addition to baobabs and breadfruit trees, there are other plants that are rich in starch, such as palm trees and acorns. The inside of the palm tree trunk contains starch, which can be extracted through specific processing methods and used to make food or industrial raw materials."

Acorns are edible, but they should be consumed in moderation. "Acorns, also known as oak chestnuts and acorn nuts, are rich in starch, vitamins, oils, fiber, and minerals. Eating them in moderation can help increase satiety, replenish energy, and promote intestinal motility, helping to prevent and improve constipation."

“I wonder if I can find them all?”

Yue's eyes moved slightly, and she tried hard to memorize these effects. The medical knowledge in the inherited memory didn't seem as detailed as what the patriarch said?

"Let's go to the ancestral land first. There's no rush to pick these things."

Yun Xi waved his hand and walked southeast along the route he had seen for a day, and came to an unremarkable forest, which Cai called Tianhe Forest.

"Xing, the entire ancestral land is hidden by the totem spirit. It's up to you now."

Xing nodded and began to chant the sacrificial words. She moved her feet lightly and danced the sacrificial dance, which was light, graceful and elegant.

As the light flashed by, the ordinary forest in front of them revealed its true appearance. In front of them was a large sago palm grove. After passing through the sago palm grove, they saw a fruit forest, and in the innermost part was a Deiro milk tree forest. Half a day later, after passing through three layers of forest, everyone saw a mysterious city.

The golden city is covered with moss and bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun, briefly revealing its beauty, and a heavy sense of vicissitudes of history comes to the face.

Seeing a mottled stone tablet, brushing off the traces of time, Yue whispered softly: "Yellow! Gold! City!"

After crossing the moat, everyone cautiously walked into this mysterious city.

The stone streets seem to have been polished as smooth as a mirror by the years. The ancient buildings stand in an orderly manner, and the flying eaves and corners reveal a vicissitudes and mysterious atmosphere. The narrow alleys paved with bluestone slabs are filled with an antique charm, as if time has stopped here, making people intoxicated.

"Wow! No wonder our ancestors always wanted to come here." Cai's face turned a little redder.

Yun Xi's tiredness disappeared completely, and she flew high into the sky to overlook the entire city. The Golden City was divided into the inner city and the outer city, both of which were square and in the shape of a Chinese character "回". The entire city was surrounded by three layers of trees with distinct layers.

The inner city is only half the size of the outer city. There is also a moat between the inner and outer cities. In the middle is a huge green lake. There are two palaces on the left and right of the lake. I flew over to take a look. There is a dragon palace on the west and a golden palace on the east. They are connected by a long bridge in the middle. It faces north and south. It should be the palace where the priests live and the palace where the patriarch lives.

When we flew back to the team, they were still walking in the outer city, which showed how large the Golden City was.

"The houses in the entire city all face south. We're on the west side now. Aside from the dragon beastmen, everyone else should find a house in the outer city to live in." Yun Xi said, "The houses in the inner city are very tall and spacious, probably to accommodate beast forms. Your beast forms aren't big enough, so you wouldn't be able to get used to them."

Cai was the first to step forward. "We live in the area in front where the inner and outer cities meet."

Lian said, "Hana and I live in the second floor building across from you."

Xue Qing said, "Let's live in order." Bing Yu agreed naively.

Falcon Tiger decided to bring his tribesmen to live nearby for care.

"Okay, you can choose. Basically, they are two-story buildings with yards. Couples will live in one, and singles will have another. If two people fall in love and live together, one of the buildings will be taken back, so you should think it over carefully." Yun Xi made some arrangements and took Xingyue and others into the inner city.
