It is reported that the old man’s surname is Li and he is a retired forestry worker. He usually likes to pick some wild vegetables and herbs in the mountains. On December 15, he came to a nearby mountain as usual, ready to look for some winter wild vegetables. When he walked to a dense forest, he found a thick tree root with a small section exposed. He thought it was an old tree, so he tried to dig it with a shovel. Unexpectedly, the root of the tree remained motionless, as if it was nailed to the ground. He felt very strange, so he dug a few times and discovered that the root turned out to be a huge Asian ginseng, about two meters long, one foot thick, and weighing nearly a hundred kilograms.
