Super Zoo

Tai Sui's 'intelligence' didn't seem to have changed, but his ability to control his body had obviously improved. On his soft and limp body, a small 'meat bag' actually bulged up on its own initiative. Su Ming didn't need to do anything at all. The small piece of meat separated from the body and floated in the water to Su Ming's side.

Su Ming grabbed it in his hand, and the feeling was simply indescribable. The tender meat that was difficult to grasp with one hand flowed out from between his five fingers, full of elasticity. I was a little impulsive in the water at that time...

"Calm down!" Su Ming quickly slapped himself in the water. Since those few days in Hong Kong with Nangong, he has become more and more beastly after returning.

Back to the topic, it seems that Tai Sui's intelligence develops very slowly, just like a person with a lifespan of 10,000 years, who lives for a hundred years, and his intelligence growth is probably about the same as a person who lives for a year. After a year, there is basically no big change.

But physical strength and size are different. Tai Sui's size is getting bigger day by day, and its control over the body is constantly improving. If this continues, maybe one day, Tai Sui will grow into a giant, and one pounce can overwhelm a building... Coupled with its special physique that can regenerate infinitely and has no fatal weaknesses, it is almost invincible in the animal world.

Great white sharks and rhinos are nothing. When Tai Sui's size is huge enough, it doesn't need to do anything. It just pounces on the opponent and directly crushes the opponent to death with its fat!

"It turns out that the brainless fat man is the ultimate killer to destroy the world!" Holding a strange fantasy about the future that is unknown how long it will take, Su Ming resurfaced and returned to the shore.

He called Nangong Huang and asked them how things were going over there.

"Wow, brother-in-law, I'm flying, it's so exciting!" Nangong Huang's voice on the other end of the phone rose seven degrees, and he shouted excitedly. Su Ming was worried that there was not enough time, so he asked Su Meng to carry the boy in the mountains...

The two sides met again at the foot of the mountain, and the morels, Tai Sui meat and monkey wine were all ready.

Nangong Huang curiously poked and poked at the yellowish fat with his fingers. There was an introduction to Tai Sui in the cooking school, but this thing was rarer than gold. No matter how high-end the cooking school was, it was impossible to use Tai Sui meat as a teaching material for students to practice. Nangong Huang had only heard of it, and it was the first time he saw the real thing.

He asked curiously: "Brother-in-law, where did you get it? This thing is a legendary divine object!"

"I picked it up on the road." Su Ming told the truth.

Nangong Huang: "..."

There are two ingredients left. Don't consider shad for the time being. Su Ming doesn't expect to find wild shad. After returning to Huayin County, buy artificially cultivated ones, which only cost a few thousand yuan.

There are also 100-year-old ginseng left.

First, go to the First People's Hospital in Yangchuan City and ask a nurse who is guiding the patients in the lobby about the market. The nurse shook her head in confusion, "Sir, have you read too many fantasy novels? How can there be so many hundred-year-old ginsengs..."

"Brother-in-law, I think we are in the wrong place!" Nangong Huang interrupted and said, "How can there be old mountain ginseng in the hospital? American ginseng is almost the same. We should go to a Chinese medicine store like Tongrentang."

"Let's go!" Su Ming turned around and took them out.

Seeing Nangong Huang, the nurse who was at most in her early twenties obviously brightened her eyes. She chased after him from behind, pulled Nangong Huang, and her eyes were full of peach blossoms: "Handsome guy, let's add each other on WeChat. If there is ginseng in the hospital in the future, I can notify you..."

Nangong Huang glared, "I don't have time to fool around with you, I'm busy with business!"

After giving the nurse 10,000 points of critical damage, the three rushed to the largest Chinese medicine store in Yangchuan City, the famous century-old Tongrentang.

Tong Ren Tang is decorated in an antique style. The hall is several meters high, and three walls are filled with medicine cabinets. Several workers are leaning on ladders to get medicine from the medicine cabinets several meters high.

After taking a number, they went to line up. The doctor sitting in the hall was an old Chinese doctor with a goatee. He put two fingers on the wrist of a young girl in front of Su Ming and his friends, then retracted them, wrote a prescription quickly, and handed it to the girl.

The young girl looked down at the prescription and said in confusion: "Doctor, what does this hawthorn and bayberry mean?"

"Who said you are pregnant? It's just bloating. Eat something sour and refreshing to stimulate your appetite. When you fart loudly, you will be fine." The old Chinese doctor said confidently.

The young girl ran away, covering her face. Su Ming sat down with a smile and asked, "Doctor, do you have any wild old mountain ginseng?"

"I see that you have a ruddy complexion and are full of energy. If you eat ginseng at such a young age, be careful not to get burned to death." The old Chinese doctor probably saw that Su Ming was not coming to see a doctor, but to buy ginseng. After warning him, he asked, "There are three, ten, and twenty years old. Which one do you want?"

"Are there any over a hundred years old?" Su Ming asked.

The old Chinese doctor rolled his eyelids and glanced at Su Ming: "Is someone in your family dying? Are you waiting for a chance to survive?"

Su Ming also rolled his eyes, thinking that someone in your family is dying.

"For a life-saving ginseng, you don't need a hundred-year-old one. Twenty to thirty years is enough. We still have a few ounces in the store. If you want, go get a receipt. You can't find a hundred-year-old mountain ginseng in the whole Yangchuan City." The old Chinese doctor stroked his goatee and smiled, "If you have a hundred-year-old mountain ginseng and are willing to sell it, our store will buy it at a high price."

"Please get busy..."

It seems that the difficulty of finding a hundred-year-old mountain ginseng is not much lower than that of shad. It is hopeless to search for it in stores one by one.

Su Ming used his mobile phone to go online to check if there is any place that sells it.

You don’t know until you check, and you’ll be shocked when you check.

It’s not that the century-old mountain ginseng is completely extinct, but the price is shocking.

Gold has a price, but ginseng is priceless. Wild mountain ginseng is almost extinct due to the scarcity of resources and unlimited over-exploitation. The annual production of pure wild mountain ginseng in the country is less than 15 kilograms, and even the national reserve is less than 50 kilograms.

Not to mention a hundred years old, even ten or fifteen years old are rare life-saving things. It is normal to sell tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of yuan for one plant, and there is no market for them.

Two years ago, a 30-gram century-old mountain ginseng was unearthed and sold at a sky-high price of three million Chinese yuan. The highest record in China at present is a mountain ginseng less than four hundred years old. It is said that the starting price at that time was more than 10 million.

The ginseng sold on the market is basically artificially cultivated, Korean ginseng, American ginseng, it is difficult to find real pure wild mountain ginseng.

No wonder the old Chinese doctor of Tongrentang always boasted about the 20-year-old mountain ginseng.

Nangong Huang said depressedly: "So, it is impossible to buy it. You can't spend millions to buy it just to pick up girls. Even if you are willing to spend this money, you won't have enough time..."

"I'll tell you again, I'm doing it for my career, not for picking up girls!"

Career is much more important than picking up girls. With a career, you can pick up girls as you like; without a career, you can only watch others pick up girls. If you are not careful, your own girl may be picked up by others. This is the difference!

Su Ming looked at the introduction on the Internet, but the last sentence attracted his attention.

"Due to the scarcity of species, any old mountain ginseng with complete appearance will be immediately sold at a sky-high price after being unearthed, and will be bought back by professionals for collection and monopoly..."

Monopoly, collection... collection...

How could I forget this? ! Speaking of collection, the largest collector in Yangchuan City, and even the whole province, is Zhao Yun. This guy even has a private museum!

Although he mainly collects antiques, Su Ming estimated that Zhao Yun was also interested in ginseng and other strange things, judging from his habit of treating monkey wine as a treasure. Even if Zhao Yun himself did not have it, he might know a friend who collected ginseng.

After calling Zhao Yun and confirming that he was at home, he drove to Zhao Yun's small villa.

It was almost noon, and Zhao Yun looked like he had just woken up. He was wearing pajamas with strange prints that were obviously not suitable for his age. He walked downstairs yawning and opened the door.

"Uncle Zhao, is it really good for you to stay at home all day?"

"I have struggled for half my life just to get the qualification to stay at home with peace of mind." Zhao Yun waved his hand, welcomed Su Ming and the other two into the house, sat on the sofa, and crossed his legs: "What's wrong?"

"I need ginseng!" Su Ming said seriously.

"Don't you have a good life? You have a career, money, a house, a car, and a girlfriend. Why are you being so pretentious in broad daylight?" Zhao Yun was puzzled.

"It's ginseng!" Su Ming dragged out his voice: "Hundred-year-old wild mountain ginseng!"

Hearing these words, Zhao Yun couldn't laugh anymore. His mouth twitched twice, which was rare. He asked with a bitter face: "How do you know I have it?"

"Ah?" Su Ming was overjoyed, "I don't know, I just asked casually!" What a coincidence, after searching everywhere for something, it was easy to get it!

Zhao Yun: "..."

After briefly explaining the whole story, Zhao Yun's face finally improved after hearing that it didn't require a whole ginseng plant, but only a few roots.

"That's you! If someone else comes, there's no way!" Zhao Yun walked upstairs depressedly, "Come up with me."

Coming to Zhao Yun's small study where he stored treasures, Zhao Yun unveiled a curtain on one wall of the room.

There was a square "frame" about one square meter in size on the wall, but it was not a photo, but a hundred-year-old mountain ginseng.

Legend has it that ginseng can grow into a human form... that's just a legend. At least a hundred-year-old ginseng doesn't have this ability. The main part of the old mountain ginseng looks like a tangled radish. Dozens of thin and dense tentacles extend from the main body to all sides. The short ones are four or five centimeters long, and the long ones are even more than half a meter long. They are densely packed in the frame.

At first glance, this ginseng looks like a big spider with many long legs lying on the wall.

Zhao Yun unlocked the 'frame', looked out the window with his hands behind his back, and said without looking back: "Do it yourself. I won't watch it. It hurts my heart..."

"Oh..." Su Ming smiled, carefully cut off six tentacles, wrapped them in red cloth, and kept them like treasures.
