As he spoke, he patted the fruit with his hands, and heard a muffled sound.

Feng Xinyi reached out and touched it. Both the skin and the flesh felt very hard, and she didn't know if it was ripe.

Seeing that there were many vines on the ground and many fruits, she asked someone to cut one open to see what was going on.

When the flesh is cut in half, the inside is yellow pulp with many seeds in the middle.

Feng Xinyi cut off a small piece of flesh and tasted it. It was very crispy and tasted a little sweet.

So he said, "It should be edible. It tastes a bit sweet. You can try boiling it later. It should be good after boiling and can be used as a dish."

Then she picked some more seeds, put them in her hand and examined them carefully, then peeled one and tasted it.

I found that the outer skin of the seed is very thin, but the kernel inside is very full, and there is no strange smell. It tastes pretty good.

Her eyes lit up: "These seeds should be able to be made into melon seeds, but we still have to save the seeds this time. When we plant more in the future, we can fry them and eat them."

Luo Zheng knew that she liked to eat melon seeds, and he was delighted when he heard that: "That's good, I'll plant more next time."

Continuing forward, they saw tomato vines in the weeds. The vines were full of red tomatoes, which looked very appetizing.

Feng Xinyi picked one, smelled it first, then cut it in half, observed it carefully, and smelled it again.

Finally, I cut a small piece and put it in my mouth to taste.

“It tastes sweet and sour.”

Feng Xinyi made a brief comment and continued, "But for the sake of caution, don't eat any of the fruit yet, in case it's poisonous."

After saying that, she ate the whole fruit.

Luo Zheng looked at her worriedly, but it was difficult to stop her.

Only he and Feng Xinyi understand pharmacology here, but he cannot fall down, otherwise it will easily make people uneasy, so he can only let Feng Xinyi test the poison himself.

He also knew that Feng Xinyi ate the whole fruit to test whether it was poisonous.

Because you eat too little, you may not be able to detect it even if it is poisonous.

However, Luo Zheng really didn't want Feng Xinyi to keep taking risks like this, so he directly ordered a team of Black Qilin Guards to sail back and bring back some farmers who were good at farming and doctors who were familiar with herbal medicine.

Only after these people left did he lead his men to continue searching.

This place is a bit far from the land and it is inconvenient to travel here.

Once these people leave, they may not come back until tomorrow.

As they continued walking, they discovered some red coffee berries and Erjingtiao peppers.

When coffee berries are eaten raw, the pulp is sweet, but there is too little pulp. When the berries are cut open, most of the inside is coffee beans, with only a thin layer of pulp.

Unprocessed green beans have a bland taste, neither bitter nor sweet. After drying and roasting, they become the coffee beans that many people consume.

Feng Xinyi tasted it and although she felt the beans tasted bland, she still vaguely discovered their refreshing effect.

The effect became more pronounced after she ate a few more.

So she said, "This fruit seems to be refreshing. Perhaps it can be processed like tea."

Luo Zheng was a little surprised: "It actually has such a function? After searching this island, I can try to make some. After all, it's fruit grown on the tree. As long as the tree is preserved, it should grow again next year."

Feng Xinyi tasted the chili pepper again, and soon her cheeks turned red from the spiciness.

Luo Zheng's face turned pale with fear: "Are you poisoned?"

Feng Xinyi waved her hand. "It's just that the taste is too spicy. I don't feel any other discomfort at the moment. If it's just spicy, maybe I can use it as a seasoning."

Fortunately, they soon found watermelon vines again, and there were already many big, round watermelons in the field.

Everyone knows watermelon, so when they see these watermelons, everyone gets excited.

"Look! It's a watermelon!"

“There are watermelons here too!”

"What huge watermelons! And there are so many!"

"Come and see if they're ripe! We can't let so many watermelons rot in the fields. That would be such a waste!"
