The island finally cleared after the heavy rain, and there was no trace of white clouds in the sky.

The bright sunlight shines on the pond and water droplets, shining with a translucent, crystal glow.

Chen Zhe walked to the window of the tree house, stretched his waist gently, looked at the clear weather outside, and smiled and said, "Let's go out for a walk while the sun is shining today. There are many places nearby that have not been to. I don't know if there are any interesting plants waiting for us."

After hearing Chen Zhe’s proposal, Da Qiao agreed very much.

When she was picking chicken mushrooms, Da Qiao did not go out, but stayed in the camp to watch the house. In addition, the rainy days in the past few days really made her feel uncomfortable, so she had long wanted to go out and let go and breathe.

However, Xiao Qiao and Yan'er were still suffering from hangovers, and neither of them had the energy to go out.

"Brother Chen, I...I can't do it anymore, I still have a headache..." Yan'er pinched her forehead and said, "You guys go out, I'll stay in the camp to guard the house."

Xiao Qiao also echoed: "I'll stay with Yan'er at home too. I'm dizzy now and it's not suitable to go out."

When Chen Zhe heard the refusal of the two girls, he didn't force himself.

After all, two people go out and two people stay behind, which is a very suitable combination.

"Then you two stay in the tree house to rest, Mengyun and I will go out for a walk," Chen Zhe said.

"Okay, please be careful." Yan'er reminded.

After bringing all the equipment, Chen Zhe and Da Qiao left the camp and set out. Chen Zhe had already explored the direction of the hot spring and the direction of the chicken mushroom. This time he and Da Qiao walked in another brand new direction.

After the heavy rain, the hillsides were muddy everywhere, so the road under your feet was naturally difficult to walk. The two of them were not fast and would support each other when they encountered particularly difficult roads.

After sobering up, Da Qiao returned to her shy and shy look. Even if Chen Zhe held her hand gently, her face turned red and her heart beat.

Seeing this scene, Chen Zhe couldn't help but feel funny, as if the woman who got drunk yesterday was not Da Qiao.

The two of them walked forward and entered another forest about one or two miles away from the camp. The forest in this area is completely different from the banyan forest where Chen Zhe and others live. The tall trees in front of them are a brand new species.

The trunks of these trees are very straight, and the branches grow diagonally above. Their leaves are oval in shape, and the leaves are green and lush and make people feel vibrant.

When Da Qiao saw this kind of tree, she couldn't help but be attracted by its tall appearance. She asked curiously: "Chen Zhe, what kind of tree is this? Do you know it?"

She actually just asked casually because she didn't think Chen Zhe could know all the types of trees. After all, the types of plants on this tropical island are too rich, and there are only thousands of them without tens of thousands. Can Chen Zhe know every plant?

Unexpectedly, Chen Zhe really recognized him, and this tree could not bring him down.

His eyes only stayed on the trunk for a short time, and the system automatically recognized the name of the tree.

[Item detected: a mature and tall tung tree.]

"This is a tung tree." Chen Zhe said with a smile, "it can be judged by its gray bark and shiny leaves."

"I see."

Da Qiao nodded without doubt, and she believed what Chen Zhe said 100%.

However, this also made her admire Chen Zhe even more and said sincerely: "Chen Zhe, you are so amazing. You know so many plants."

"Haha..." Chen Zhe scratched the back of his head in shame. After all, this was an achievement achieved through the system.

"I just pay more attention to plants," he explained with a smile.

And at the same time.

In the live broadcast room of the wilderness survival.

Today's host He Chen was also shocked by Chen Zhe's understanding of plants.

He tilted his head and asked a botany expert next to him, Mr. Kong, "Hello Teacher Kong, is Chen Zhe's judgment correct? Is the plant in front of them really a tung tree?"

Teacher Kong smiled and nodded and said, "Chen Zhe is right. This tall tree is the tree of the Euphorbaceae family - the tung tree.

This kind of tree likes moist and hot weather, so it is very common in the tropics. It has some prominent characteristics, such as the trunks are thick, the overall height is straight, and straight.

In addition, its leaves are oval and have a ray of oil, so it is very easy to identify."

"I see."

He Chen nodded slightly, then said,

"But what surprised me was that Chen Zhe seemed to know all kinds of plants. It has been more than two months since he came to the island. During these two months, Chen Zhe saw a large number of plants... It seems that he knew every plant."

This is actually not difficult for Chen Zhe, because every time he encounters a plant system upgrade system, it will automatically recognize it. However, in the eyes of others, this is already a very remarkable achievement.

I know every plant I encounter. What kind of knowledge do I need to have?

Even the botany expert, Mr. Kong, couldn't help but say admiringly: "Yes, I've actually been watching since the first episode of the show. Chen Zhe has a very profound knowledge. Sometimes I have to check the information to call some plants, but I didn't expect that Chen Zhe can actually say it accurately...

Chen Zhe’s knowledge reserves are compelling.”

He Chen also nodded and said, "Yes."

As the two were talking, Chen Zhe suddenly walked under a thick tung tree and kicked it at the trunk of the tung tree with a sudden kick.

boom--!

With Chen Zhe's shocking kick, the tung tree began to shake violently.

Da Qiao was stunned for a moment of surprise and asked curiously: "Chen Zhe, why... you... suddenly ravaged this tree?"

Chen Zhe did not rush to answer, but raised his foot and kicked it at the tung tree.

boom--!

The thick tree trunk shook violently under Chen Zhe's attack, and then some spherical objects on the tree fell down.

Da Qiao walked over and saw that it was some spherical, about five or six centimeters in diameter, and was wrapped with a layer of wrinkled skin. These should be the fruits of the tung tree.

Then she suddenly realized that Chen Zhe kicked the tree to pick the fruits.

Because the trunk of the tung tree is too straight and the branches are too far from the ground, it is not cost-effective to climb up to pick it. In comparison, this method of kicking the tree is simple and crude.

She bent down to pick up a fruit, peeled off the outer skin, and asked, "Chen Zhe, can the fruits of the tung tree be eaten? That's why you want to pick them?"

Unexpectedly, Chen Zhe immediately shook his head and said, "Don't eat it. The fruits of the tung tree are poisonous. If you eat it, something will happen."

"Ah..." Da Qiao quickly threw away the fruits in his hand, and then asked in confusion, "Then what's the use of picking these fruits?"

Chen Zhe did not answer her question immediately, but said with a smile: "You will know when you go back, because I can't confirm whether I can succeed now, so I can't answer your question for the time being."

After hearing this, Da Qiao pouted with depression and said dissatisfied: "Hmph, I'll keep you in hiding again."

...

The two of them struggled in the woods for more than two hours, and they stopped until they were sweating all over.

A large basket of tung tree fruits have been accumulated in the bamboo basket. These fruits are wet with rain and emit this strange smell.

It can't be said to be fresh, but it can't be said to be unpleasant. In short, it's the smell of plants, a bit like the smell of freshly peeled bark.

Chen Zhe carried the full vine basket and returned to the camp with Da Qiao.

Seeing this, the host He Chen in the live broadcast room couldn't help but ask curiously: "Teacher Kong, I have the same problem as Da Qiao. Since the fruits of the tung tree are poisonous, why did Chen Zhe pick a large amount of fruits and go back?

What is his purpose in doing this?

Although Chen Zhe deliberately did not tell us, can you answer it for us?"

Teacher Kong smiled and nodded and said, "Of course. In fact, the answer to this question is not difficult. The name of the Tung Tree has answered us.

The reason why the tung tree is called tung tree is because its fruits contain a lot of oil, and the fruits of this tree can be used to squeeze oil."

"Pressing oil?" He Chen said, "Do you squeeze vegetable oil? It seems that Chen Zhe is planning to make some fried and fried dishes?"

“No, no…”

Teacher Kong immediately smiled and shook his head,

"Teacher He, you misunderstood that the oil produced by tung oil fruits is toxic and inedible. It can only be used in industrial oils, so Chen Zhe will definitely not use these oils to stir-fry."

"oh?"

He Chen was a little confused when he heard this.

"Since you can't cook, what is Chen Zhe doing with this oil?"

"I don't know this, but Chen Zhe still has to reveal the answer himself." Teacher Kong said.

In a blink of an eye, Chen Zhe and Da Qiao returned to the camp with a basket of tung trees full of fruits. Xiao Qiao and Yan'er, who were standing on the tree house, saw it from afar and immediately came out.

"Brother Chen, what good things have you found?" Yan'er asked impatiently.

Xiao Qiao looked at the fruits in the bamboo basket and drooled, and said with a smile: "Is it delicious? Wow... these small fruits look delicious at first glance!"

Da Qiao quickly stopped his greedy sister and said seriously: "Silly girl, don't talk nonsense, these fruits are poisonous."

"Ha? Poisonous?" Xiao Qiao was stunned, and then asked, "Since it is poisonous, why should I pick it back? I'm still picking so many of them from afar? Do I have to refine poison?"

Although the little girl has a big idea, Da Qiao thinks what she said makes sense.

"Do you want to use it to refine poison?" Da Qiao asked Chen Zhe nervously.

Chen Zhe shook his head and smiled: "Of course not. If it is poison, the toxins of the poisonous dart frog are more effective. The poisonous effects of these fruits are not enough."

"Okay..." Seeing that Chen Zhe had no intention of answering, Da Qiao stopped asking questions.

Chen Zhe turned around and said to Yan'er: "Yan'er, help me cook some water in a casserole, and then cook the fruits of these tung trees... Remember, don't cook too much. It will be enough to boil it for five or six minutes after the water boils."

"I understand." Yan'er nodded obediently and immediately followed Chen Zhe's instructions.
