Chapter 772: Look at what you're used to
Three hours later, Ying Fang said goodbye to the curator and called it a day.
She put on a straw hat and a white shirt to cover the sun, and as soon as she stepped out of the cliff road, she saw a man lazily leaning on the trunk of a large tree towering into the sky waiting for her.
Seeing her come out, he straightened up, smiled in his eyes, and walked towards her.
"Nothing happened, did you?"
Ying Fang saw that he had changed his clothes, and guessed that he had gone to the other exit of the cave to check.
Xiang Gang took the kettle from her hand, led her to the cave, and said as he walked: "I went to see it with my father, do you guess what is at the end of the cave?"
"It won't be another dragon vein, right?" Ying Fang raised her eyebrows slightly and guessed casually.
Xiang Gang smiled: "How can there be so many dragon vein treasures." But quite unexpectedly, it feels like it belongs to the same geological group as the ancient ruins you are developing, but the preservation is even better than the above. ”
Ying Fang blinked: "You mean, the other side of the waterhole is on the ground...... Underneath the ancient ruins?"
"Almost. As I stood there, I could faintly hear the digging sound coming from above you. ”
Ying Fang was stunned.
I couldn't help but turn in my mind: Could it be that when the earth dragon turned over, the entire underground palace actually did not completely collapse, but collapsed one part and covered the other part. So the bottom is intact, but the top is a ruined wall?
Is that really the case?
She followed Xiang Gang to the cave with a suspicious stomach.
As soon as I entered, I was a little speechless.
Her father sat on the mat with the old man and played poker.
Her mother is telling stories to Nuan Nuan and Yan Yan.
Sister-in-law Fu sat on a flat stalactite in the corner and made a fire to roast sweet potatoes.
Where is she? What is she doing!
It feels like you're not in a cave in the wilderness, but on a scenic hillside, with a cool breeze, snacks, and a little poker to listen to stories......
Speaking of the cool breeze, Yingfang wiped her forehead, and as soon as she came in, she felt that the pores of her whole body were shrinking, and the sweat stains were automatically put away.
"It's so shady, the old man won't be cold when he sits on the floor, right?"
"No, there's hay under the mat. The temperature in the cave is about 234 degrees, and it won't be cold in long sleeves and long pants. ”
Ying Fang couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth when she heard this. Thankfully, everyone was wise enough to bring not only long sleeves and trousers, but also socks. Otherwise, if you stay for half a day, you will catch a cold. What are you talking about summer vacation?
"Hello is you back, are you hungry? Sister-in-law Fu roasted sweet potatoes, we have all eaten them, and that one is reserved for the two of you. ”
Xiao Sanye was sitting opposite the entrance of the cave, and when he saw the two of them coming back, he pointed to a relatively flat jade-colored stone on the side, and there were two long strips of sweet potatoes lying on it, which were specially reserved for his daughter and son-in-law.
"Not to mention, the wild sweet potatoes dug in the mountains taste really good. The powder is glutinous, and the baby eggs can't stop eating. If it weren't for the fear that they would accumulate food, each person would be able to eat another one, right, Nuan Nuan, Yan Yan?"
"Mmmm, mother, this sweet potato is delicious. These two best shapes are the ones we picked out for you and your dad, and you can eat them while they're hot, and they'll be hard when it's cold. Nuan Nuan said.
Yingfang walked over and rubbed the children's heads: "Thank you, babies." ”
Then I walked around the cave.
I found that except for the open space where the family sat was relatively dry and flat, the drier the land, the less there were, and almost all of them flowed with cool groundwater, which was nothing more than different depths. The deepest is the pool of turquoise water.
If you look closely, the color of the pool is not actually green, but because of the stone stalactites hanging upside down on the top wall of the cave.
The stone stalactites are like turquoise jade, and like the tips of green shell bamboo shoots, and the pool below is blue.
There are water droplets on the head of the stone from time to time, ticking and falling on the surface of the pool, rippling and remembering the echo.
"It's beautiful. Yingfang sighed sincerely.
"Let's eat first, talk as we eat. ”
Xiang Gang handed her a roasted sweet potato.
The two of them ate slowly while chatting about the ancient ruins at the other end of the cave.
Everyone is very interested in this, and they all want to go over and have a look.
It's a pity that the water in the pool is cold, and Xiang Gang doesn't approve of them going into the water.
"The water is so cold, it's not good for the body to flow in and out. If it is really connected to the site, it is not too late to go down and visit it after it is opened. ”
"Gangzi is right, it's not a secret treasure, isn't it just some building beams and living relics left in ancient times, what's so strange. I can't afford to freeze for this. Xiao Sanye agreed with his son-in-law's point of view.
Jiang Xinrou followed: "Yes, then let's wait for the ruins to come out and then visit." And you two went in and looked around, didn't you say that you heard the sound, it seemed to come from above, so what if it was chiseled and chiseled, and the gravel fell down and hit your body?"
"Then I won't go. The old man clapped, "It's also very good here, cool and clean." Not even a single mosquito. ”
Sister-in-law Fu smiled and said: "There are no mosquitoes, that's because the obedient girl gave me a pack of mosquito repellent grass, and I smoked it as soon as I came." Don't you smell it?"
Xiao Sanye said: "The old man's nose is stuffed. ”
"You're just stuffed!" the old man hit him with a cane, and the two of them laughed.
Ying Fang sat down and looked up at the stone stalactites of various shapes in a daze.
"What do you want?" asked Xiang Gang, holding her.
"I remember that the ancestral ancient medical book that the master gave me mentioned that stalactites are a kind of medicinal herbs, warming the lungs, curing Yuanyang, and lowering **. The "Commentary on the Materia Medica" also mentions that stalactites are the main medicinal materials, which can cure fatigue, cough and asthma, and cold paralysis of the waist and feet. "Qianjin Yifang" seems to have a recipe for soaking wine......"
In short, stalactites seem to be a rare medicine, supplemented by adjuvants have miraculous effects.
"Then knock it back and try it?"
"Okay. ”
After a simple lunch, the two of them took a firewood knife and scraped the stalactites as quietly as possible.
The old man and the two little ones took a nap wrapped in a thin blanket from the ranger's house.
Xiao Sanye said that he couldn't sleep, so he went out for a walk with his hands behind his back, and when he came back, he had more than 20 wild eggs in front of his clothes and a few bunches of mountain grapes hanging on his arms.
Sister-in-law Fu boiled boiled eggs.
Jiang Xinrou took the spring water and washed the grapes.
"It's so sweet. She stuffed one for her husband, "Where did you pick it?" The wild fruits on the periphery have been almost eaten by the children in the village, and it is difficult to find them that look so good." ”
Xiao Sanye ate one, it was too sweet, and waved his hand to say no. Leaning on the cave wall with his hands behind his head, he said, "Just behind the cave, no one has been here before, and it grows with thorn bushes, not to mention people, it is difficult for animals to eat." Don't pick it yourself, you like to eat it, I'll pick a few more bunches before I go back. ”
The two whispered for a while.
When the old and young people got up for a nap, they ate a nutritious afternoon tea with a combination of wild eggs and mountain grapes, and played in the cave for a while, cleaned up the garbage, packed up their things, and prepared to go down the mountain.
It was five o'clock in the evening, the scorching sun was slanting in the west, and the gentle mountain breeze was blowing from time to time, even if the sun could still be basking in the sunny place, but it was not as hot as during the day.
Ying Fang remembered that she still owed Xiaojin a barbecue, and after sending her family to the foot of the mountain, she said that she had an appetite recently, and wanted to eat pheasant soup and roast rabbit meat, so she pulled Xiang Gang back to the forest again.
When he came out, he brought enough condiments for barbecue, and Xiang Gang kept matches on his body, so he couldn't make other dishes, but the barbecue was a proper drop.
Ying Fang is responsible for lighting the fire, and Xiang Gang is responsible for catching chickens and rabbits.
When the misty green smoke rises straight into the sky, the aroma of barbecue spreads through.
King Jin and Uncle Meow appeared in front of them one after the other.
"Well, reward you. Ying Fang smiled and put the first roasted pheasant in front of the two little ones.
King Jin was not busy eating, but glanced at Uncle Meow.
The latter withdrew his outstretched paws, turned around and ran away in a huff.
"Tangerine," Ying Fang called.
King Jin hissed and spat out the snake letter twice, as if to say: Ignore it. Will be back.
Sure enough, within a few minutes, Uncle Meow came back again. He had a broken crockpot in his mouth.
Yingfang took the crockpot and saw that it was actually honey.
Could it be that she was brushed with honey and grilled?
What a foodie!
Pumping his mouth, he didn't refuse the request of the two, handed the honey to Xiang Gang, and asked him to brush it on the half-cooked roast rabbit meat. Suddenly, the aroma of the meat condensed a lot.
The two little ones ignored the roasted pheasant in front of them, and stared at the rabbit meat that was still roasted with honey on the pine branches.
Yingfang supports the forehead. It's so habitual!
I think that when she and Xiao King Kong came here, they didn't have so many condiments on hand, and a few grains of salt-roasted pheasant meat were not delicious and satisfying?
