Prehistoric Notes

Chapter 214 Tree of Life

The king personally led the people to escort the sun god and left the territory of the Kingdom of Juga and walked out of the forest. Soon they entered a drier desert, and the desert of the Inca Empire was on the edge of the desert Gobi.

What is amazing is that Montanasi, the capital of the Inca Empire, is located on a beautiful oasis in the center of the desert. It feels like the city is isolated by this country. It is hard to imagine that it is the capital of this empire.

Zhong Yueming sighed, "No wonder the king's power is empty. The geographical location of this capital is simply terrible!"

"But this oasis environment is really good!" Xiaopei opened his arms and looked up at the blue sky and said.

The surrounding bread tree is full of towering into the clouds. This kind of bread tree is unique to the Inca Empire. Zhou Xirui remembers as if there was such a tree in Africa in his previous life.

The trunk of the bread tree is about 20 meters high, but the chest diameter can reach more than 15 meters. It often takes more than a dozen adult men to hold hands to hug each other.

The crown looks more than 50 meters in diameter. Because it looks like a big fat man, the people of the Inca country also call it "big fat tree" and "the elephant in the tree".

When entering the desert, the king of Qijia reminded the "god" that if they can't find water in the desert, they can cut open the trunk of the bread tree, and water will flow out of it.

At that time, it was very magical. Zhou Xirui asked the king why there was water in it. The king said, "In order to get through the dry season smoothly, the bread tree desperately absorbs water and store it in the fat trunk during the rainy season.

It has a porous sponge in its wooden body, which contains a lot of water, which becomes an ideal water source during drought. It once provided life-saving water for many people traveling in the desert, so it is also known as the "Tree of Life". As long as there is such a tree, you will not die of thirst in the desert."

After listening to the king's description, the group wanted to see what the real bread tree was like. As soon as they entered the desert, they looked around, but they only saw it in the oasis, but it was very shocking. Standing under the tree, there was a sense of smallness standing under the pillars of the temple.

The bread tree is very large, and the crown is like a root in order to maintain moisture. The whole tree looks strange, as if it has been fallen upside down.

Zhou Xirui and others came in the season of luxuriant and fruitful seasons. Each fruit is a cluster of flowers and fruits formed by an inflorescence, of different sizes, as big as football, small as citrus, and up to 20 kilograms.

Dimo, the monkey, immediately rushed up to the tree, picked one and nibbled it up. Dimo, throw down a few!" Atso drooled and shouted at it.

Dimo looked at everyone, easily climbed onto the branch, threw bread fruit down like a ball, and hit Acuo's head. This guy shouted at Dimo, "Dimo, throw it carefully, it's hit someone." Dimo looked at him and made a proud cry.

A little girl came towards her. The beautiful and light hat woven with bread leaves on her head attracted the attention of Xiaopei and Tana. They gathered around and asked the little girl how she made it.

When the little girl saw that the two sisters liked the hat, she decided to teach them how to make it. Xiaopei quickly waved to Zhou Xirui and asked him to fly to pick a few leaves.

The branches of bread are lush, the leaves are beautiful, and the three colors of a leaf are really beautiful. Zhou Xirui looked at it and cut down a lot of leaves with a knife.

The little girl shouted quickly below, "Enough! Enough! No need to cut it anymore!" Seeing Zhou Xirui jumping down from such a high tree easily, he felt amazing. He jumped over and asked curiously, "Brother, how can you fly?"

"Haha, because I'm the sun god!" Zhou Xirui winked at the little girl and said, "Don't tell anyone! God can't be known."

"Oh, I know." The little girl didn't know that her brother was teasing her. She stared at a pair of big innocent eyes and nodded. She actually didn't know what the sun god did.

It took more than an hour for Xiaopei and Tana to learn to weave more than a dozen hats. As a result, each person had an extra leaf hat on his head, and even Dimo had one on his head.

The little girl tied up the remaining leaves and said she would take them home to cook. Can you also eat leaves?" Xiaopei was a little surprised. The little girl smiled and said, "Of course, sister, will you go to my house?" I have a small bar and a small hotel.

"Do you still have so much business in your family? Then let's go and have a look and stay in your hotel tonight!" Xiaopei laughed.

The group followed the little girl for more than five miles and came to the bar and hotel she said. It turned out that it was made by hollowing out the bread tree. Everyone thought it was very interesting.

Look around and look at the residents here. They have dug a door of hundreds of giant bread trees to live in as houses, so of course, hotels and bars are opened in bread trees.

The little girl's name is Moani. His father warmly received Zhou Xirui and his party. Dinner was actually made of bread and fruit, which was really wonderful. When the fruit of the bread tree matures and becomes dry, they will fall to the ground. The locals dig out the pulp and grind it into powder, which can be made into various staple foods.

Moani's father baked bread with pulp powder. When it is cooked and cut, it shows a light yellow color, emitting a faint fragrance. Her father put some salted beef on the hot pulp and bite down. The pulp is soft, and the texture of powder is like eating potatoes.

Everyone was eating happily, and the enthusiastic hostess brought you a small wooden barrel of homemade bread wine. This wine tastes refreshing and has a strong fruity aroma, which makes people feel comfortable.

Moani's parents are very cheerful and soon got along with everyone. Moani's father said proudly, "Everyone knows that ordinary bread is made of wheat flour.

And our "bread" is picked directly from the tree. The bread tree is our life tree, the fruit is our ration, the trunk can build a house, and the bark can weave... Haha, to put it simply, a man here has completed his mission of supporting his family by planting 10 trees in an hour.

Because the amount of fruit of the bread tree is amazing, a bread tree can harvest fruit three times a year, which is enough for one or two people to rations throughout the year.

"Wow, this is really suitable for a man like me to survive!" As soon as Acuo heard Moani's father's speech, he immediately fascinated that the pressure on the men here could be so small.
