Chapter 165 Chapter 165: The Woods Search for Cicada Shells
At this time, Wu Zhenzhen suddenly remembered that "One Hundred Thousand Whys" said that this cicada shell is a medicinal herb.
It seems that in Wu Zhen's impression, this type of medicinal herb is very valuable.
It seems that there is something called Cordyceps sinensis that looks similar to this one and is very valuable, so this cicada shell must have some value.
Continuing to think about it, Wu Zhen thought - with money, my mother will come back.
So, Wu Zhenzhen immediately said to Xiao Yong: "Let's go, let's collect this cicada shell." ”
Xiao Yong was also very curious about this cicada shell, so he happily said, "Okay." ”
So, the brothers set out to look for cicada shells in the park.
As the carpet search began, the grove in the eastern part of the park, near the park gate, was immediately searched by the two of them.
As long as the cicada shells can be obtained, they can't escape the hands of the two.
However, there was also a large centipede encountered in the process.
Since they had little experience in dealing with centipedes, the two waited for the centipede to leave before continuing to tiptoe to pick cicada shells.
Then, the two found that the larger cicada shells were in the middle and upper part of the trunk.
This is too difficult for Wu Zhenzhen, who has less than two meters to bounce.
However, the two of them immediately found a wooden stick from the side, and with a wave of the wooden stick, the cicada shell, which was not particularly high, would basically fall.
Since they couldn't get a new cicada shell at once, the two of them counted the cicada shells in their hands.
9 small shells and 3 large shells, such a dismal result made the two very dissatisfied.
After returning to the gate of the park and looking at the entire park, Wu Zhenzhen pointed to the largest forest in the park map and said, "Okay, this grove is just a warm-up, and then go to the big grove in the west of the park." ”
"Okay, look at me. Little Brave said happily.
It seems that this activity has aroused the interest of Little Brave all of a sudden.
So, the two of them walked to the western woods.
This large grove in the western part of the park is rich in trees and shrubs, so the two of them have a sense of Alice in Wonderland as soon as they enter, so the two of them seem very excited.
However, in this place, cobwebs are also everywhere, and the spiders on the cobwebs are also scary.
So, after the two walked into the depths of the woods, they gradually trembled.
However, Wu Zhenzhen has the simple experience of walking in the wild. So, the next thing was Wu Zhenzhen with a wooden stick and waved it a few times in front of him to knock off those invisible cobwebs.
As they went deeper and deeper, the woods became denser and denser, and gradually the sunlight could no longer penetrate, so the scenery in front of the two of them gradually darkened.
Looking at the gradually darkening woods, Xiao Yong became frightened and said, "Don't go, it's so dark." ”
"It's okay, with me, what are you afraid of. If it's true that I can't control the situation anymore, I'll call it a halt. Wu Zhen thought about it and said.
However, the speed of progress gradually slowed down, because there were more and more kinds of spiders, and Wu Zhenzhen gradually became scared when he saw a large spider with obvious venom glands.
Of course, there are a lot of harvests in the woods along the way, and there are more and more cicada shells in my hands, and I can't put down one hand.
"Okay, it's almost done, right?" said Xiao Yong, looking at the more and more cobwebs in front of him, and said visibly trembling.
"Well, it's almost okay, with so much gain, I don't know how Grandma will praise us. Wu Zhenzhen said with a smile.
On the way back, the two noticed a man and a woman talking and laughing and walking deeper into the woods.
"It's amazing, these two people just talked and laughed and walked over to so many places as cobwebs. Little Brave said.
Wu Zhenzhen said: "Indeed, such a big spider, aren't these two people afraid?"
On the way back, because they saw the other side of the woods, the two found a lot of cicada shells.
However, due to the fear of spiders, centipedes and toads, the two of them still dare not take the cicada shells in some places.
Of course, in addition to that, bed bugs are also very troublesome. However, neither of them seems to be very afraid of bed bugs, and almost always squamples them flat with one foot on them. After all, it's still very uncomfortable to wait for bed bugs to secrete that smelly gas.
As they walked to the edge of the woods step by step, the light gradually brightened, and the two looked at the pile of cicada shells in their hands and smiled.
The other people in the park looked at the cicada shells in the hands of the two of them, and they were also very curious.
An old man came over and said, "Little guy, what are you doing with so many cicada shells?"
"Used in exchange for money. Wu Zhenzhen said.
"Haha, haha, although this cicada shell is also a traditional Chinese medicine, it doesn't seem to be worth much. The old man touched his long beard and said with a smile.
"Well, do you know how much effort we put into these cicada shells, and how careful we were in the face of the terrible spiders and centipedes to find these things. Xiao Yong said a little angrily.
"Haha, although you may have spent a lot of effort, I still have to tell you that these things are not very valuable. The old man said again.
The old man was about to say something, but the two of them had already turned around and walked away. After all, the fruits of this morning's labor were suddenly said to be worthless, and no one could stand it.
The two carefully returned home with a small pile of cicada shells, and the grandfather looked at it and smiled and said, "Haha, what a good thing this is." ”
"Cicada shells. Wu Zhenzhen and Xiao Yongyong said in unison.
Grandpa turned on the light in the room, looked at it for a while, and said happily, "Okay, good, good, I didn't expect you to do such a thing." ”
Grandma also came over and was also very happy to look at these cicada shells.
However, Xiao Yong immediately remembered the words of the old man outside before, so he said, "Isn't this cicada shell not very valuable?" ”
When grandma heard this, she thought about it for a while, and then said slowly: "There is a pure natural and non-pure natural in this cicada shell, and now you are making it purely natural, so it is worth some money." ”
"Oh, then my mother can come back, and I don't have to go out to work anymore?" Wu Zhenzhen said happily immediately.
When Grandma heard this, she felt that something was wrong, so she asked, "What do you mean? Does this matter?"
Wu Zhenzhen said: "My mother said that if she didn't go out to work, I wouldn't be able to eat meat, so I wanted to sell these cicada shells and let my mother come back." ”
When Grandma heard this, she couldn't laugh or cry.
However, grandpa immediately stood up at this time and said: "Haha, although this cicada shell can be sold for some money, but your life is always using money, and when the money is not enough, your mother can only send out like this, after all, if they are all at home, even if the cicada shell is sold for a lot of money, it will be empty!"
In this way, Wu Zhen understood that there was no way for his mother to go out to work.
Then, the grandmother looked at Wu Zhenzhen and said, "Okay, it seems that the grandson is missing his mother, haha." This is a very normal thing, as long as you study hard and make progress every day, your mother will be happy. Of course, if you're unhappy, your mom will be unhappy too. ”。
After listening to grandma's words, Wu Zhenzhen gradually put away his unhappy expression.
In the afternoon, Wu Zhenzhen suddenly remembered that the weekly diary assigned by Mr. Guan had not yet been written, so Wu Zhenzhen wrote about finding cicada shells with Xiao Yongyong.
