The boss traveled through time in the end times: The prince was beaten by the princess again

Although Ji Qianchen didn't know what it was, from Lin Qingwan's actions, she should have guessed what it was. So he quickly asked, "Master, tell me, what is that?"

Lin Qingwan suddenly realized that this was obviously salt, how could they not know it? Only then did she understand that in this dynasty, salt was basically coarse salt, and it was rare to see salt as white and fine as sand, so they did not recognize it.

Lin Qingwan smiled and said to Ji Qianchen: "You will know if you try it yourself!"

Ji Qianchen was stunned. He didn't expect that his master would let him taste it himself. But when he thought about it, it made sense. His master was fine after eating it, so what was he afraid of? So he quickly put his hand into the water, and then took it out to dry. After a while, there was a little bit of white stuff on his hand. He was skeptical and used the finger of his other hand to dip it, then put it to his mouth and licked it gently with his tongue.

Ji Qianchen's eyes widened and his expression froze: "It's actually salt! It's salty!"

Ji Qianchen took a little more and licked it. It was indeed salty. Only then did he believe his previous judgment. He subconsciously looked into the water and found a clue. The water was clear and there was something white like sand at the bottom, but the water was clean and there was nothing inside.

There are no fish, no living creatures, not even any aquatic plants!

Ji Qianchen now understood that the salt content in this lake was too high and it was not suitable for the growth of plants, so there was nothing in it. However, this lake that looked so beautiful could be called a "dead lake!"

"Master, just as you expected, there is nothing in this lake. The salinity is horrible. We can't move this lake!"

Ji Qianchen expressed his judgment, and Lin Qingwan nodded to show her agreement. This Moon Lake is a dead lake.

At this time, Zhong Hanyan had already washed her eyes. Apart from a little redness, there was nothing serious. She and Lin Yiyang came over and heard the two people's judgment. They were also very surprised. Was this an accidental discovery of a salt production area? This concentration was something that no other production area had ever had before.

Salt is an important material for the army to maintain its combat effectiveness. If there is enough salt, the soldiers will have the strength to fight. If they eat less salt, they will have no strength. However, with such a large lake and so much salt, they can't transport it away. They can only regretfully note the address, and if the court needs it in the future, they can send people to mine it.

"Since it's a dead lake, there's no way we can find any plants here, right?" Xuan Ye said at the right time. In his opinion, such a harsh environment would definitely not allow any plants to grow. It was just as he thought. The area around the Moon Lake was indeed bare, with no plants growing. Only in places far away did trees grow, but they were sparse.

However, he got a different answer.

"On the contrary! This proves that we are on the right track!" Ji Qianchen has already waved his folding fan, looking like a master. Then he continued, "The eight-petal fairy orchid is not an ordinary plant. It grows in saline-alkali land. Only when the concentration is high enough can it grow eight petals! Therefore, it is recorded in books that where the eight-petal fairy orchid grows, there must be salt mines. This is also an important means of finding salt mines. Of course, if there are no eight-petal ones, there are four-petal or six-petal ones. It's just a matter of salt production!"

"So, according to what you said, the higher the salinity of the water, the higher the chance of encountering the eight-petal fairy orchid?" Xuan Ye finally gained some knowledge, and based on Ji Qianchen's judgment, he could draw inferences about other situations.

Ji Qianchen closed his folding fan and pretended to tap Xuan Ye on the head, looking like a teachable boy: "You got it right!"

With Ji Qianchen's explanation, Lin Qingwan was too lazy to explain anything. Their goal now was to find the eight-petal fairy orchid.

"Then according to what you said, it's very easy to find eight-petal fairy orchids now. Other plants can't survive, so the one that can survive must be the fairy orchid. As for how many petals it has, I don't know. It depends on luck."

Xuan Ye once again drew inferences from one example.

"Yes! Let's search separately. Remember not to run too far." Ji Qianchen said to Xuan Ye again.

"Then we'll split up and search. Whoever finds it will shout and we'll come over. The lake isn't very big anyway, so we can split into two teams, start from the left and right, and meet up at the other end!" Lin Yiyang made the arrangements, and everyone agreed.

Lin Qingwan was in one group with Zhong Hanyan, Hu Sanniang, and Da Qingniu, and the rest were in another group. Ji Qianchen had a big peng bird, so it was convenient for them to come over, and Lin Qingwan was also able to take people flying, which was naturally much faster than walking.

So the two groups searched in opposite directions. Lin Qingwan's group went to the right, and Lin Yiyang's group went to the left. From then on, the two groups searched separately. The road was indeed empty. They were far away at the top of the mountain and did not observe carefully. Only then did they realize that a large circle of empty area had formed around the Moon Lake.

Lin Qingwan's group walked for a while before they saw a patch of pale yellow flowers in front of them. When they got closer, they saw that the flowers here looked like the legendary eight-petal fairy orchids, but the petals were not eight, but mostly four or six. Lin Qingwan explained: "It's not that all eight-petal fairy orchids have eight petals, but at most they have eight petals. The more petals, the more precious they are!"

"So that's it!" Hu Sanniang nodded thoughtfully. This time, she learned a lot of pharmacological knowledge from Lin Qingwan. It was something she didn't know before, and she gained a lot.

"It seems that there are no eight-petal ones here!" Zhong Hanyan took a quick look and did not find any trace of the eight-petal fairy, which made him a little disappointed.

Lin Qingwan was not discouraged. She picked these six-petal orchids and transplanted them to the space. With time, they could grow into eight-petal fairy orchids. However, she had to find a way to clean up this saline lake...

So, she acted calmly and said, "The six-petal ones are good too, let's pick some!"

Of course, they didn't know that Lin Qingwan actually had her eyes on the Moon Lake.

"Well, okay!" Zhong Hanyan followed Lin Qingwan's decision and started picking carefully. This six-petal fairy orchid is hard to find on the market. But there is a large area here. Fortunately, she brought enough jade boxes, otherwise she would regret it. Lin Qingwan was different. She took advantage of everyone's inattention and blocked the herbs in front of her with her body, silently saying in her heart: "Collect!"

She transplanted the orchids that she liked directly into the space medicine field. Then, she continued to collect them as if nothing had happened. After a busy period, everyone stopped because they saw that they had picked almost all the orchids. The big blue ox lay down and slept soundly. When it saw that everyone had stood up, it slowly stood up and shook its strong body. It followed behind everyone, panting.

"Let's keep moving forward and meet up with them over there!" Lin Qingwan gave the order and took the lead forward. She was in a good mood because she got the fairy orchid!
