Please collect, click, and recommend There were more native people watching from a distance, but they did not go up to help.  They even kept cheering like they were watching a show.  With just one glance, Heavenly Master Wen could tell that this must be related to indigenous customs and even sacrifices.  However, he naturally had concerns in his heart. The clouds dispersed, revealing his true body, and shouted softly: "Thunder is coming!" Hearing several loud crackling sounds, a few dazzling sparks flashed, and there was a burning smell.  When they came out, several crocodiles were killed by lightning.  By the time Master Wen landed on the ground, the natives were already screaming and fell to their knees one by one in fear.  This was exactly the effect that Heavenly Master Wen Da wanted, so naturally he let the indigenous people carry it back with a sedan made like a sliding pole made of branches.  This tribe is located on a high hill near a waterhole. The waterhole leads to a certain river, but this tribe took advantage of the terrain and built something similar to a sluice.  Therefore, it can be guaranteed that even if the rainy season arrives, large areas of farmland will be opened up near the small lake, where corn, potatoes, and a strange kind of tree will be planted.  Celestial Master Wen Da was filled with emotion. He had always heard that corn and potatoes were originally from America.  But maybe Fuyuan City is too far away from the civilization circle of America. This is the first time he has seen these things.  "Compared to later varieties, the corn cobs at this time were not as big as later generations.  In Fuyuan City, there are a large number of sweet potatoes planted that even Heavenly Master Wen Da has never seen before.  Probably this breed was eliminated in later generations.  Neither the output nor the taste can compare with those of later generations.  It is also the staple food of people in Fuyuan City and can provide a large amount of starch.  When he was with the White Demon Clan, Wen Fei didn't even have time to notice what they were planting.  And now.  Master Wen finally saw these legendary and highly productive artifacts.  Seeing this god coming with thunder and lightning seems to be interesting to these things.  The clan leader began to introduce various things to Master Wen in a stammering manner.  Especially in the forest not far away, there are layers of red and green, overlapping each other.  The red ones are young leaves, and the green ones are old leaves. It seems to be the flowering season now, with small white flowers still blooming.  Although he could not understand the language of this tribe, Master Wen quickly figured it out.  This tree is the sacred tree of the tribe, and their tribe originally wanted to steal the seeds of this tree.  They were forced to move to this rainforest.  These trees were planted by their ancestors for two to three hundred years.  With the blessing of these trees, their tribe was able to overcome various diseases in the hot and humid environment of the rainforest and continue to thrive.  The patriarch said that every time the rainy season comes, people will be sent to cut down the trees and peel off the bark.  The bark is sun-dried or kiln-dried and pressed into flat sheets. When the bark is dry, it is rolled into tubes and preserved.  "If someone is sick and suddenly has chills and chills, and then has a high fever, talks nonsense, and becomes confused, it is a disease of ghost possession.  They would feed the patients water boiled with the bark of this tree, and they would recover quickly.  If Master Wen guessed correctly, this is the cinchona tree.  Although his old man is not industrious.  I don't know the difference between grains and I can't recognize a few types of plants, but Master Wen also happens to know this kind of plant.  I noticed it before when I was sorting out information on the Americas.  ¡°And I¡¯m afraid the people in these tribes have probably never realized that this disease is not a treatment for ghost possession at all, but a treatment for malaria.  The rain forest is humid and hot, and there are many mosquitoes, which often spreads this disease.  It is probably the most harmful disease in the rainforest.  The bark and root bark of the cinchona tree are important raw materials for extracting quinine and quinidine.  This kind of thing is also a treasure. You must know why those ministers were demoted in the Northern Song Dynasty.  They regard the south as a miasmatic place. Once they go there, they often die of illness and it is difficult to return to the central land.  In addition to the fact that northerners are not suitable for the southern climate, malaria is also a huge problem.  The development of Lingnan and other places is so slow.  This is also a huge problem.  With this kind of special medicine, we can accelerate the development power of the south.  Even in Dali, Siam, and Jiaozhi and other countries, Master Wen's interest is not small.  Although after World War II, the concept of living space has been abandoned.  But Heavenly Master Wen Da has always believed in it!  Heavenly Master Wen Da was carried to the clan leader¡¯s house. All kinds of colorful fruits and drinks were presented, and the room was quickly filled.  outsidePeople are still grilling and cooking various meats, and the whole tribe is singing and dancing, as happy as a festival.  When Master Wen was in modern America, he heard complaints more than once that the local people were too lazy.  Even if they are very poor, they are not willing to work hard to make money. Instead, as long as they have money, they want to spend it happily.  In later generations, almost all people living in tropical places have this muddle-through attitude.  In this kind of place where materials are abundant and it is difficult for people to starve to death, you can find wild fruits of your own to satisfy your hunger when you go out for a walk. It is difficult to develop the national character of striving for self-improvement.  Look at this tribe, they are all the same. As long as they can find an excuse to have a party, they will not hesitate. They can't wait to take out everything and squander it all at once.  This kind of national character seems to be deep in the bones. Even before Heavenly Master Wen Da got the jade pendant, he had a lazy temperament. Now his desire for material things is even lower, but with this kind of satisfaction, there is no need to knock rice buckets.  His temperament is also somewhat disapproving.  It seemed that Master Wen was particularly concerned about those places, so the roasted corn and potatoes were quickly presented.  There are also cinchona tree flowers, which are all over the body and surroundings of Heavenly Master Wen Da.  He remembered that he had seen that the flowers of the cinchona tree in America were originally used to worship gods.  Then the patriarch respectfully presented a thick and heavy gold necklace with precious stones to Master Wen Da.  This made Master Wen feel a little more confident, and he began to ask about the history of this tribe, especially the history before the migration.  What disappoints Master Wen Da is that the people of this tribe only have a few short legends about sacred trees like the Cinchona tree, and there are no more other historical stories.  Celestial Master Wen Da was quite disappointed.  Fortunately, the clan leader of this tribe was very discerning. Knowing that Master Wen was concerned about this, he told him that among the sacred trees in the tribe, there was a miraculous sacred tree, which was the ancestor of these sacred trees.  If Master Wen wants to know something, he can go to the Ancestral Tree.  This surprised Master Wen. Although he had not been in contact with this tribe for a long time, he could already tell that this tribe was different from other American tribes. This was probably because there were cinchona trees and the surrounding areas were not too powerful to be hostile.  The power exists, so it is quite secular.  Although gods are also worshiped, there are also religious-like rituals in which humans and crocodiles fight.  But this tribe is not like the Fuyuan City, the Ban people, the White Demon people, or even the Indy people, where everything is centered on religion and gods.  At this time, they actually said that they had an ancestral tree, which made Master Wen quite curious.  When he set foot here, although he didn't feel the existence of many natural spirits nearby, he also didn't feel the existence of the more powerful protective spirits and ancestral spirits.  The tribe¡¯s carnival lasted until almost dawn, and the crocodile meat at the end was a must-have.  Based on Master Wen's current cultivation level, he can go without eating for several months, and he can also eat more food than an elephant can hold in one meal.  Fortunately, he only had a taste. As for the wine, he didn't touch it at all.  Master Wen still remembered how these tribes made wine. They simply chewed the fruit with their teeth and spit it into a jar, waiting for natural fermentation.  If beautiful beauties who are pleasing to the eye do this kind of thing, it would be like the cigars rubbed on the white thighs of women in Havana, Cuba, or the tea leaves bitten off by those girls with their lips by the Dongting Lake But those big men who pick their feet, or those skinny people  , the saliva of an old woman who has never brushed her teeth in her life is very polite!  After a night of carnival, the tribe began to regain its vitality at noon the next day.  The patriarch then asked people to carry the sedan chair and sent Master Wen into the cinchona tree forest.  Heavenly Master Wen Da walked all the way, silently observing the trend of Qi in the rain forest.  Different from this Middle-earth, Middle-earth is mainly about the intersection of mountains, dragons and water dragons, with more emphasis on mountains.  The flow of energy in the rain forest is where the river and its tributaries flow. The terrain of both basins and plains runs throughout.  The trend of Qi pulse depends on the water dragon.  The energy nodes he checked along the way, the so-called geomantic treasures, were almost always near large rivers or tributaries.  Since ancient times, wherever a city is located or where a population is concentrated, it must be a place with excellent Feng Shui.  Regardless of whether you understand Feng Shui theory or not, you will still make spontaneous choices.  Of course, the West also has Feng Shui techniques.  It's just that their Feng Shui techniques are the same as those of the Middle Earth Tonic, and they focus more on Tianxing Feng Shui.  Probably due to the indiscriminate mysticism passed down from ancient Egypt, architecture pays more attention to the mysterious connection with the constellations.  Being included in the mysterious architecture, there are also secret gatherings.It organizes inheritance and is famous, thousands of times more powerful than the Magic Stone Society.  For these things, Heavenly Master Wen didn¡¯t know much about them.  I only found out after listening to Mr. Abel¡¯s story.  But the location of the tribe in front of them did not follow such a principle.  Let Heavenly Master Wen Da know that human beings' mysterious intuition does not work every time.  Just like here, although it looks quite conducive to living, from the perspective of Feng Shui, it is quite average. At least it does not gather wind and hide water, and the earth's energy does not form holes here.
