Ginseng is a perennial herbaceous plant, which mostly grows in coniferous and broad-leaved mixed forests or mixed forests in gentle slopes or slopes of mountains at an altitude of 500~1100 meters. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Because the roots are hypertrophied, shaped like a spindle, often bifurcated, and the whole appearance is quite similar to the head, hands, feet and limbs of a human being, so it is called ginseng.

In ancient times, ginseng was known as yellow essence, goblin, and divine grass, and ginseng was known as the "king of herbs", and it is one of the well-known "three treasures of the Northeast" (ginseng, mink, deer antler), and it is a well-known precious medicinal material at home and abroad, both old and young.

Zhang Wolf sent a red rope to the ginseng reed stem, lay on the ground and began to carefully dig the surrounding soil, because there was no special tool to carry ginseng, Zhang Wolf had to dig little by little by hand.

Although it was not dug up, intuitively, this ginseng was definitely no smaller than the ginseng that the eighth grandfather gave him.

Tie a red rope on the ginseng, which is the ancient rule of the Northeast ginseng pickers, ginseng is a rare medicinal material, in China since ancient times as a spirit, so the ginseng collection has its own set of mysterious and special mountain rules, customs.

In the past, it was usually tightly organized.

When picking ginseng, each person holds a rope stick, commonly known as "Solo stick", crosses the grass and presses the grass to find ginseng, according to the mountain rules do not say a word, as soon as the ginseng is found, immediately shout loudly: "Bang mallet!" It is said that when a "stick mallet" is called, the ginseng will be "fixed" and no longer run away.

Then he covered the ginseng with a straw hat so that he could tie it to his hands, and tied the ginseng to the branch with a red rope, so that the ginseng was caught.

The language of the ginseng pickers is also exquisite, and digging ginseng is called "lifting ginseng", which is full of respect.

There is also a saying that the red rope is to mark that the ginseng has been discovered, sometimes only the young ginseng or the ginseng that is not old enough, tie the red rope, that is, recognize the ginseng, others can not dig it, and after a few years, the ginseng grows up, and the ginseng owner can go to dig.

The ginseng that is tied to the red rope means that it is the owner, and it can no longer be touched, and if it is touched, it will be punished by the mountain god, which is the rule of the mountain.

These are all statements handed down from the older generation, and no one can say which one is true, and everyone has always done it.

Zhang Wolf is still more willing to believe the latter statement, which is more reliable.

Because he was afraid of hurting the fibrous roots of ginseng, Zhang Wolf dug very slowly, digging for more than an hour before digging it out completely.

This ginseng is 1.5 meters long with fibrous roots, second only to the ginseng treasure given by the eighth grandfather last time, and it was carefully wrapped in the red cloth that he carried with him and put it in the satchel.

Digging up the treasure, Zhang Wolf didn't have the heart to continue patrolling, with such a treasure patrolling the mountain, in case he bumped the loss, there would be no place to cry when the time came.

Smirking all the way back to the cabin, Zhang Wolf couldn't help but take out the ginseng and take a closer look.

Although I have seen a bigger ginseng than this, but it is different, although this ginseng treasure is not as big as the eighth grandfather, but this is dug by himself, the mood is different, before there was only emotion and gratitude, but now it is excited, and the whole body is trembling with excitement.

Zhang Wolf didn't do anything else in the morning, and just smirked at the ginseng treasure on the kang.

It wasn't until his stomach growled in protest that Zhang Wolf came back to his senses.

In the morning, I was going to go around the neighborhood and eat again, but when I dug up the ginseng treasure, I was so happy that I forgot to eat.

Looking at the time, it will already be past two o'clock in the afternoon.

The sky and the earth are big, the five Tibetan gods are the largest, and it is important to eat, so carefully put away the ginseng treasure and hide it in the wooden house.

began to prepare lunch, because Huzi was taken away by the two stunned people, and Zhang Wolf had to do it himself.

Fortunately, there is never a shortage of food in the mountains and forests of the Northeast.

I walked around the woods, picked some hazelnut mushrooms, and returned to the cabin with a pheasant.

There are two stoves in the cabin, one for rice and the other for stewed chicken.

Stewed pheasant with hazelnut mushrooms is an authentic Northeast famous dish.

First, peel the pheasant, disembowel, remove the internal organs, wash it, chop it into pieces, scald it with boiling water, and remove it for later use.

Then wash the mushrooms to remove the old roots and wash them.

Heat it too much, add oil, put in the pheasant pieces and stir-fry to change color, add mountain spring water, and then put on the wild onion segments, ginger slices, refined salt, peppercorns, mushrooms, and stew for more than half an hour to get out of the pot.

Although the ingredients are not complete, the authentic pheasant and fresh mushrooms taste delicious.

With the pheasant stewed with hazelnut mushrooms, Zhang Wolf ate half a pot of rice.

After eating, Zhang Wolf patted his stomach to see that the remaining rice and vegetables were enough to eat at night, and he didn't need to brush the pot, so he could continue to eat at night.

After washing the dishes and chopsticks and putting them in the cupboard, Zhang Wolf continued to check the terrain that he hadn't finished reading in the morning, and couldn't help but fantasize about encountering another ginseng treasure.

The facts tell Zhang Wolf that all this is just a fantasy, and it is a great blessing to meet a ginseng treasure.

How many ginseng pickers can't pick a ginseng treasure in their lifetime.

The afternoon trip was uneventful, except for a few small groups of wild boars, all of which were small groups of boars with three or two sows.

Instead, I found a few yew trees with the thickness of a bowl.

In the evening, he returned to the cabin and eliminated the leftover meals from noon, and Zhang Wolf began to do evening classes.

After meditating with the master for more than a month, Zhang Wolf clearly felt that his temper could be controlled slowly.

Although he still swears, it is just a habit, and it is rare to have the idea of wanting to kill someone after a rage.

With such an awareness, Zhang Wolf became more and more serious about doing his homework.

It was nearly a day's walk from Xilongzhuang to Wild Boar Gully, and it was not until the evening of the next day that they returned to the cabin from Xilongzhuang.

This time it was not only the ten of them who came, but also a lot of people from the Qi family and the Liu family, and there were fifty young and strong laborers.

They are all ready to carry their prey.

Zhang Jianjun also came, and as soon as they met, he chased after Zhang Wolf and asked, "Uncle Wolf!

"Hehe!" Zhang Wolf smiled.

"Really, Uncle Wolf, you are so fierce!" Zhang Jianjun saw that Zhang Wolf did not refute, and immediately shouted.

"Uncle Wolf, you don't know, now the village has spread all over the village, you hunted more than 20 wild wolves by yourself, scared away the tigers, and said that you are a star in the sky. Zhang Chenggong was also chattering about the rumors in the village and reporting to Zhang Wolf.

Zhang Wolf smiled and listened to Zhang Chenggong tell the rumors in the village.

When everyone found out that the excitement was almost over, they said with a smile, "Okay, I'm tired of the day, hurry up and wash my face, rest for a while, I'll go get two roe deer and roast them at night." ”

"Uncle Wolf, let's roast wild boar meat and eat it, the roe deer meat is too thin, and it is not fragrant to eat when roasted. Zhang Jianjun suggested.

Zhang Wolf nodded happily: "Okay! There is no shortage of wild boars in this place!"

"Roe deer can be stewed and eaten, and with mountain mushrooms, it is called a fragrant. Zhang Chenggong also made a request.

"There are still a lot of requirements for dog days!Do you want another fish soup?" Zhang Wolf scolded with a smile, turned around and went out, preparing food for the evening.

"This can be there. There was a sound of saliva behind him.

"Dog's day, if you want to eat yourself, go to the river and fish it out. ”
