The geological eras include the Permian, Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous.

The Permian is a period of Earth's geological era that occurred approximately 290 million to 251 million years ago. The climate of the Permian was relatively dry and hot. Areas within the continent may experience drought and desertification.

The Triassic is a period in geological history that lasted from approximately 251 million years ago to 201 million years ago. Over time, the climate gradually became drier. This has led to massive drought and desertification, especially on land. However, due to large-scale volcanic eruptions on Earth, large amounts of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases were released, causing the climate to become warmer. Crustal movements are also active, leading to the formation of mountains and the occurrence of earthquakes.

The Jurassic Period lasted approximately 250 million to 145 million years ago. Global warming and wetting have created vast swamps, lakes and rivers. These waters provide abundant food and habitat for many creatures. The land is covered with dense forests, dominated by conifers and ferns. These forests provided shelter and food sources for many dinosaurs and other land animals. At the same time, a large number of ferns also appeared on the land, forming vast grasslands and wetlands.

The Cretaceous period in geological history lasted from approximately 145 million years ago to 65 million years ago. The environments on land are diverse, including forests, rivers, lakes, and deserts. The forest consists mainly of angiosperms, which reached their peak during the Cretaceous period. The vegetation in the forest is very lush and includes a variety of trees, ferns and flowers. These plants provide food and habitat for many animals. Rivers and lakes were also very common during the Cretaceous. The river's water source mainly comes from rainfall and melting glaciers. The river's currents are strong, creating canyons and waterfalls. Lakes are formed at the confluence of rivers, providing rich water resources and ecosystems.

Shao Zheng said: "Which period of plant do you think it is?"

Xu Jingsi said: "Judging from the soil testing results, it is from the Jurassic or Cretaceous period."

Shao Zheng said: "That is quite a long history."

There are some plants that take a long time to grow.

Giant sequoias are one of the tallest trees in the world and can grow for more than 3,000 years.

Cactus is a type of succulent plant, and some varieties can last for decades or even hundreds of years.

Ginkgo biloba can grow for over 1,000 years.

Olive trees are a common tree species in the Mediterranean region, and some olive trees can be more than 2,000 years old.

Dracaena grows in the Comoros and Socotra islands and can be over 500 years old.

Feiyan said: "Let's see if there are any traces left by the Desolate Ones?"

He walked around again and stopped beside a severed branch. Judging from the shape and structure of the chopped branches, they were cut with a special knife. It seemed that they had been here before.

Shao Zheng said: "A small amount of flow elements are found here."

Xu Jingsi said: "When they find some special plants, they will also rush over. Special plants have many connections with those special elements."

They left Qimai Mountain at night.

Xu Jingsi contacted Dai Ru in the evening. Whenever he had some ideas, he would always talk to her.

Xu Jingsi said: "I found an ancient plant here that can grow into the shape of a house."

Deru said: "Really? Then there is no need to build a house."

Xu Jingsi said: "But it grows slowly."

Deru said: "How long will it take?"

Xu Jingsi said: "Many, many years. Just like if a person wants to have a successful career, it also takes many, many years."

It is really difficult for the meritorious officials of the past to be able to achieve great achievements in the world without doubting their masters, and to be able to achieve great positions without being jealous of others. In dealing with people throughout life, "it may not be full if you use it", "defeat its sharpness, resolve its confusion, harmonize its light, and be the same as its dust, it may be as clear as it is".

Deru said: "Are you still asking me to wait for you a little longer?"

Xu Jingsi said: "I just felt it. It doesn't matter if you wait for me a little longer, right?"

Deru said: "You always say that you need to wait a long time to succeed in your career. I think you are just grinding, hesitating, procrastinating, and nagging."

Xu Jingsi said: "Don't be anxious. After I go over these places and check them, I should come to a conclusion soon. I will report to Director Ye as soon as possible."
