Watching the water still boiling, Chen Wen had some thoughts.
Hot water can certainly be drunk, but it doesn't have an entry.
Therefore, after observing the surroundings, Chen Wen went and broke off some pine branches.
After picking off the pine needles, he threw the branches into the campfire without wasting a bit.
The pine needles were placed into the pot by Chen Wen.
He planned to brew a pot of pine needle tea.
Pine needles can be soaked in water for drinking.
Though these things have a very peculiar smell which some people might not be able to accept.
But they are harmless.
On the contrary, they are quite nutritious.
In some ancient Chinese medical texts, pine needles are often depicted as an excellent remedy for treating tumors, wind-cold-dampness syndrome.
Drinking them as tea can prolong life, promote health, and resist aging.
Modern science has also proven that pine needles do have some effects.
