Chapter 685: Variations
The big forest in late autumn is more solemn, and the deciduous tree species are basically only bare branches, so the light in the forest is much brighter, although the coniferous forest is still green, but this green also shows a heavy meaning, which is completely different from the tender green sprouts that have just begun in spring.
The yellow leaves and withered grass everywhere made it easier to walk, and the soles of shoes fell on them, making a rustling sound, and the sound of the members of the expedition shouting and screaming, making the mountains lively all at once.
"Pine Tower-" The fist-sized pine tower was picked up from the ground, but unfortunately, it was slippery and there was not even a single pine nut on it.
Kiki smiled and raised his hand to point to the tree, only to see a gray pine tree scurrying deftly around the branches, busy stockpiling winter food.
"What a capability—" Kiki complimented heartily, and the little squirrel ran even happier.
"Can you get some pine nuts to taste?" In the inspection group, except for Professor Glasses, the rest are basically here to eat and drink in the mountains and waters, and of course they will not let go of this opportunity.
"No problem, but the number can't be too much, in the forest, I don't know how many animals rely on pine nuts to feed, we have been picking too many pine nuts for two years, and as a result, the black bears formed a gang to besiege the village, and almost broke out into a big war. The fat man said with a smile.
Everyone laughed when they heard it, the fat man can speak in the vernacular, and he can listen to people. Even the glasses professor nodded again and again: "You know this truth, it's really rare, pine nuts from the birds on the trees to the animals on the ground, are their main food source for wintering, if this chain is broken, it will cause damage to the entire ecosystem." It's hard to get a little profit, it's hard to get—"
Hearing him say this, the people who were arguing about eating pine nuts just now were embarrassed to squeak, as if they were Japanese devils who went into the mountains to grab food.
"Let's pick less, it's okay to go back and taste it. The fat man saw everyone's concerns.
Everyone looked up at the big red pine dozens of meters high, and shook their heads vigorously: "Even if you want to pick pine nuts, you can't reach it, no one can climb such a tall tree." ”
The fat man grinned again: "If in the past, the big girls and little daughters-in-law in our village all climbed trees and beat pine towers, eighteen monsters in the northeast, and the big girls went up the trees faster than monkeys, but it's a pity that I didn't bring them here today, they are all experts in picking pine towers." ”
After speaking, he glanced at Qiqi, and the little guy understood, and beckoned to the little squirrel who was busy in the tree, and the squirrel swished a few times, then ran down and squatted on Qiqi's shoulder.
Another one came out of the hole in the tree, squeaked twice, and jumped down. A small squirrel was on Kiki's shoulder, and everyone gathered around to see Strange. When I lived in a big city, I saw mice, and squirrels were seen on TV.
Kiki gestured for a long time, and the two squirrels probably understood, climbed the tree again, and began to pour pine nuts out of the tree hole, puffed them in their mouths, and spit on Kiki's small slap.
"If you want to pine the tower, you should keep this for the winter. Kiki held up a large pine tower and shook it vigorously in front of the two little ones.
Everyone watched with a smile, and a warmth swelled up in their hearts, no matter what purpose they had originally come for, now it seemed to have been washed, and those dirty things were washed away, leaving only the truest and most virtuous part of their nature. Now, it no longer matters to them whether they eat pine nuts or not, they have tasted the most wonderful taste of life.
The two squirrels blinked their eyes wide, presumably understanding what Qiqi meant, and ran back to the tree, and began to bite down on the pine tower, crackling like dumplings.
Qiqi waved his hand below: "Enough, enough." ”
picked up the pine towers scattered on the ground and put them in Ye Zi's basket, Ye Zi turned off the DV, and she had already recorded this passage just now.
The female member of the delegation came over: "Sister, I'll copy this passage later, and go back to show my daughter at home, so that she can also know that people and animals can get along like this." ”
The others were also suddenly gossiping, and they wanted to copy it back, and they also asked their family and friends to be baptized.
Seeing that they had forgotten their duties at all, the glasses professor wanted to remind them, but after looking around at the forest, and then at the fat man and Qiqi, he shook his head, nodded again, and already had a score in his heart: "Is there any other place that can be more suitable than here, the mission of this expedition has actually been successfully completed." ”
Letting go of his worries, Professor Glasses indulged in the beautiful forest with all his heart, which was extremely relaxed. The whole expedition has also completely turned into a tour.
"Black pheasant!" someone shouted at the top of his voice, and saw a bird squatting on the tree larger than a pheasant, the feathers of the whole body were almost black and blue, the feathers of the head and neck were dark blue, flashing with a blue metallic luster, the tail was forked and curved outward, and the red coronal sarcoma on the top of the head was very large, and the whole looked very beautiful.
"This is the black grouse, which is relatively rare now, but our poultry farm has this, because the quantity is still small, so I didn't eat it yesterday, but I tasted it a few years ago, the meat is delicious, and it is better than the pheasant." The fat man didn't leave his line in three sentences, and he talked about eating.
Everyone couldn't help but swallow and spit at the mouth, even if the business was done, of course, the focus shifted to eating, drinking and having fun.
What kind of eyes did the fat man have, he understood at a glance, and waved his arm: "Hehe, I have already prepared, I didn't bring any luggage or anything, so I brought something to eat, and we will prepare a picnic in a while." ”
"If only I had brought the child—" the lady sighed, resonating with the others.
"Hehe, welcome to come at any time, our villa will be completed in the coming year, and it will be more beautiful than now. The fat man took the sheep by the hand and advertised the future villa.
"Why do you want to bring the child to see and see, Qiqi, when the time comes, I will bring you a little sister, will you lead her into the mountains?"
"Just set up camp here, bury the pot and make food. The fat man chose a sunny hillside, cleared out a piece of grass, and put the cauldron on first. In this month, the trees are withered and yellow, and the grass and leaves are all over the ground, which is most likely to cause mountain fires.
"It doesn't seem like there's anything to eat, right?" said Head Zhu, scratching his head.
The fat man pointed to the forest not far away: "The food is all in it, let's go!"
The group followed, purring and running into the woods. The fat man shouted: "That is a hazelnut forest, pick more, fry it for a while, this thing is dry now, just pick up the wormhole hole on the ground, and pull it in a pocket." ”
Hazelnuts are the size of thumb fingers, and the shell shines with a dark brown sheen, which is easier than pine nuts, and it is loaded into the pocket.
"Is hazelnut mushroom growing right here?" someone asked.
"There are no mushrooms in this month. Someone next to him immediately retorted.
The fat man rolled his eyes: "Yes, this noon, our main dish is this." ”
Seeing that everyone's pockets were full, and a few people in suits were also bulging in their pockets, they led everyone to continue to drill into the old forest, and saw several big wild boars along the way, but no one paid attention to this. Now to say that they came to investigate wild boars, no one would believe them.
"Well, it's our specialty, the yuan mushroom that can only be seen in late autumn and early winter, also called frozen mushroom. The fat man said, pointing to a stump of a tree that had fallen to the ground.
I saw a few palm-sized white mushrooms about the shape of a fan growing there, which stood out in the golden color everywhere. Take a closer look, there is a slight yellow in the white, smooth and delicate.
"What a big mushroom!" everyone admired as they reached out and pulled it out, but the umbrella stalk was on one side, and it was extremely short, and the mushroom could immediately smell a fragrance.
"This is the second largest fungus in the mountain after the monkey's head, and we have a good day today. The glasses professor was holding a mushroom, and he couldn't keep his mouth shut.
Carefully put the mushrooms in the basket, and everyone searched around, and after a while, the basket was full. The fat man carried the basket: "This basket is worth five hundred or six hundred, and the mushrooms you see on the market are generally artificially cultivated, and you can't eat this with money." ”
As soon as the words fell, a roar was heard not far away, and the whole mountain forest was shocked, and the timid people in the team were so frightened that they sat on the ground, and the bold ones trembled, and their faces were like earth.
"It's a tiger, isn't it?" someone asked with a shudder.
The fat man waved his hand with a big grin: "It's okay, just send us something to eat, go over and take a look." ”
Everyone looked at each other, not daring to take a step, only the glasses and the lady, who followed behind Kiki steadfastly.
After a while, they saw a behemoth crawling from the withered grass, and the hairy head looked at this side, and everyone couldn't help but shiver.
"A pinch of hair—" Qiqi and Ye Zi cheered and ran up. It turned out that the tiger had a red head rope tied to its head, which was a handful of Mr. Mao who was in the limelight on TV and was obsessed with by hundreds of millions of people.
Everyone present had also heard of the prestige of a pinch of hair, although they were afraid, but they were more curious, and they all slowly approached it, only to see Qiqi pushing a pinch of hairy brain melon seeds to avoid its big tongue like a steel file.
The fat man took a fancy to the bloody roe deer next to a handful of hair, and went up to cut off two big hind legs. A pinch of hair snorted a few times, a little unhappy: What's the matter with this guy, he exploited my food as soon as they met, it was like this last time, and this time it's back!
After taking a few photos from afar, everyone felt that this time it was really worth the trip, seeing the legendary king of the forest, and being able to grab food, I really didn't dare to think about it.
Turning back to the camp, the fat man first fried a large pot of hazelnuts and pine nuts, then cut the robe meat into several large pieces, threw it into the pot and boiled it first, set up a small pot next to it, beat the yuan mushrooms, and then took out two white chickens: "Hehe, authentic chicken stew mushrooms." ”
A good meal is not afraid of being late, everyone waited for more than two hours, and the picnic began. There was a plastic sheet on the ground, and the yellow and clear chicken mushrooms were brought up, and they all stretched their chopsticks to the mushrooms first. Sure enough, the entrance is smooth and tender, and the fresh fragrance is very fragrant, which is really a delicacy that has never been eaten in my life.
Tear a piece of roe deer meat again, and the more you chew, the more you feel that it is worth the trip. The glasses professor suddenly became proud: "Fatty, take the wine, such a beautiful day, delicious at the moment, how can you make it without wine-"
The fat man scratched the back of his head: "Hehe, I'm afraid that everyone will drink too much and won't be able to go down the mountain." ”
The glasses professor laughed: "Life must be happy, why not get drunk, you should have a good drink today!"
