Chapter 927 This water is poisonous
Chapter 927 This water is poisonous
Looking at the far side of the river bed from left to right, Wang Yu walked down the river bed while chatting with everyone. There is the downstream, and maybe the source of water can be found there.

"It is almost impossible for me to find the upstream source of this riverbed. Go down the river as much as possible, and maybe you can find a pond, or even the river's mouth!"

Walking on the dry river channel, Wang Yu walked along the downstream direction of the river bed. There are lush plants on both sides, and some shrubs are waist-high. It is obvious that although the river bed here is dry, the groundwater is still rich. Dig some distance, and you'll be able to find ample groundwater sources.

However, Wang Yu didn't have the right tools at this time, so he didn't think about digging groundwater first.

"Go on and look for it, maybe there will be a water source ahead!"

Walking forward for about 200 meters, suddenly, Wang Yu, who was talking to the camera, was shocked, and then shouted with joy: "Look! There is a small pond in front of you!"

Everyone was a little shocked when they heard the words, and the camera turned in a timely manner. As Wang Yu said, about 50 meters in front of them, there is a small clear pond surrounded by tall green trees on three sides. plant.

As he said that, Wang Yu ran forward excitedly. Although the small pond was just a pool of stagnant water that hadn't evaporated completely, it was enough to make him excited.

All of a sudden, the whole person was leaping on the rocks, like a nimble goat jumping among the rocks, within a few breaths, Wang Yu came to the side of this small pond.

The area of ​​the pond is not large, about as deep as the ankle. The pond is so clear that it gives people a feeling of cleanliness. It seems that there is no problem in drinking directly, but this is not the case for Wang Yu. The pond lacks flow , is likely to have been contaminated.

"At a time like this, you'd better not drink the water immediately, and observe whether there is any possibility of pollution around. This kind of pond may attract some animals to come to drink. If there are feces left by them around, the water in the pond Most likely undrinkable.

Because animal feces contains bacteria, even parasites and eggs, which can cause you to suffer from various diseases, and getting sick in the desert is a very fatal thing!"

Wang Yu said seriously to the camera. After speaking, he looked along the edge of the pond.

Fortunately, he didn't smell the smell of animal feces and urine. The pond didn't seem to be polluted, so he couldn't help but feel a little relaxed and his face was full of joy.

The only thing that made him doubtful was that there was a strange yellow-white powder around the crystal-clear pond, but he didn't pay attention to it at first, subconsciously thinking it was minerals.

"Wait! Yellow-white powder?"

The joy on Wang Yu's face suddenly disappeared, replaced by a sense of solemnity, and he murmured, but no one listened.

Everyone was about to ask what was going on, when Wang Yu squatted by the stagnant pond, picked up a handful of yellow-white dry powder by the pond with his fingers, kneaded it carefully in the palm of his hand a few times, and Wang Yu looked up again. After looking around for a while, he said solemnly: "The water is poisonous!"

"Is there poison in the water?"

Everyone was stunned when they heard it, and their faces were full of blank expressions. How could this water be poisonous? It looks so clear that even if there are germs, it should be no problem to drink it after boiling it. For a while, everyone put their minds on the yellow-white powder, but almost no one could tell why.

"Master Yu is just kidding, this water looks pretty good, why can't you drink it?"

"In the wilderness, how can there be poison in the water, I only heard that the water is not clean, there are bacteria and so on..."

"Could it be that someone wants to plot against Master Yu?"

"Hey! Hearing what you said, it seems to make sense."

"No way, you came here to poison a small pond in the Sahara Desert?"

"Have you read too many conspiracy theories?"

In the face of everyone's speculation, Wang Yu also couldn't help laughing, and quickly shook his head to explain: "No, no, it's not human-made factors, but the uncanny craftsmanship of nature..."

Seeing that Wang Yu was playing tricks, everyone urged them one after another, and then Wang Yu explained leisurely: "It is the real poisoner!"

As he spoke, Wang Yu suddenly turned around and pointed to a green vegetation on the bank.

"Oleander!
In the live broadcast room, the sharp-eyed viewers recognized it immediately. For a while, the three words "oleander" were all over the public screen.

Taking advantage of everyone's interest being aroused, Wang Yu continued: "Oleander likes warmth and fears cold. It can be cultivated in the open air in the south of the Yangtze River Basin in my country. They can be seen in many park areas. I believe Most Southern audiences have seen them, they just don't recognize them."

After hearing Wang Yu's explanation, some southern viewers who had seen oleander suddenly realized that they had seen it before, while most of the northern viewers were dumbfounded.

As a plant with ornamental and medicinal value, many people don’t know that its beautiful appearance hides a murderous intent. While explaining to everyone, Wang Yu chose a flower and explained:
"Look, these are their petals, like peach blossoms, there are five petals in total, exuding a faint fragrance..."

"Their leaves are long and narrow like willow leaves, but the color is darker, the color of the leaves is more emerald green, and the texture is not as smooth as willow leaves. The plants can grow to a height of more than five meters. As an ornamental plant, they It's really a good choice, but…”

Speaking of this, Wang Yu paused, his tone changed, and continued: "They are poisonous from top to bottom, whether it is leaves, flowers, bark, rhizomes, sap or even seeds, and they are extremely toxic. It is strong, and direct skin contact will not have much impact. Once humans or animals eat it by mistake, it can cause death!"

Can it actually cause death?
"The yellow-white powder on the edge of the pond should be the oleander liquid mixed into the pond after being exposed to the sun and then dried into a powder, which is highly toxic."

When Wang Yu said this, everyone felt that the pink oleander flower in his hand was a little more alluring, revealing an inexplicable sense of threat, which made people tremble.

Everyone was shocked. This kind of plant, which can be said to be relatively common in the south, turned out to be a poison. It is a plant that can be encountered when commuting to get off work or walking downstairs. It seems to be very ornamental, but they did not expect that the whole body would be poisonous. It contains toxicity both above and below.

Wang Yu patted the powder off his hand, threw the oleander flower casually, and explained: "Talking about toxicity regardless of the dose is a hooligan. If you drink too much water, you will get water poisoning, just by touching it, or smelling the fragrance for too long. If you do, you may experience mild discomfort such as dizziness and vomiting."
