Chapter 291: Spotting the Dragon's Eye?

Chang Zhaowen didn't know how long he had been running, he felt that he had rushed out a long way, and he felt that his throat was smoking, dry and painful.

But reason told him that all this must be an illusion, and that the radius he could explore in the Forest of Words was only a little more than 16 meters, and unless he kept traveling sideways, he would have run out of the exploration range long ago.

But that eerie cry for help was gone......

Is that person now suffering some misfortune and no longer able to cry out for help?

Still is......

This is a trap from beginning to end?

Chang Zhaowen stopped, his heart was at a loss, now the cry for help was gone, and he didn't know what direction to go after following the sound. However, one thing is certain, the edge of this forest of words is definitely not as peaceful and stable as the dwarfs say.

His right hand was holding the wooden staff tightly, and his strength was so great that even his joints began to turn faintly white, and his palms had already begun to sweat, and the alarm bell in his heart was loud, he must be careful, not rash, and at the same time must ensure a high degree of mental concentration.

The cries for help never sounded again, and the forest was quiet again, as if the cries for help were just a false dream. Chang Zhaowen took a deep breath, he couldn't let these emotions interfere with him, he had to cheer himself up again.

Since he had entered the forest with a purpose, even if something happened in the middle, his mission had to be done.

Chang Zhaowen held a flashlight in one hand to illuminate it, and with the other hand he used a wooden stick to constantly push away the weeds on the ground, but each time he found nothing, although there were also some ingredients such as artichoke, mushrooms, shallots, perilla, coriander, etc., but there was no fruit he was looking for now.

Even under a dead leaf, a scorpion dragging a dark red sharp poisonous needle and shaking two pincers at him demonstratively, Chang Zhaowen did not continue to disturb it, and the scorpion calmly retreated and disappeared into the weeds.

After walking for more than ten minutes, he still found nothing, except for his feet, Chang Zhaowen also looked up on the big trees looking for fruits.

Because in addition to the bushes, it is the fruit trees that are more likely to grow fruit. But it was so dark that he couldn't see what was in the tree, even though he held up his flashlight. A damp wind with cold vapor blew on him, making him shiver a little.

The air was getting more and more humid, and there were many tangled roots on the ground.

Chang Zhaowen tilted his head, even his neck was sore, and he still didn't find anything.

Suddenly, there was a sound of Xixisuo under his feet, and before Chang Zhaowen could bow his head, the goosebumps on his body suddenly rose. Something seemed to have climbed onto his shoes, and although the weight was not very heavy, it felt strange to the touch, a bit like ...... Spider!

He wouldn't be that unlucky, would he? Chang Zhaowen's mind immediately came to mind the huge poisonous spider he had seen on TV, and he was a little glad that he was wearing a pair of sneakers without open toes today, but even through the shoes, he didn't want to have too close contact with spiders.

His eyes went down little by little, and when he saw what was standing on his shoes, he couldn't help but laugh dumbly, he was too grassy and woody!

On his right foot was a crab the size of a dollar coin, and seeing Chang Zhaowen shining the beam of the flashlight, the crab hurriedly got off Chang Zhaowen's shoe and climbed onto a damp tree root coiled on the ground.

The flashlight swept around the ground indiscriminately, and there are many dense small holes on the ground in this area, which may be the burrows of crabs, right? He shrugged his shoulders, but these holes are not big, the largest is only 4 or 5 centimeters wide, and it is conceivable that the crabs in the crab hole will not be too big.

Not to mention that he didn't plan to catch some live creatures back this time, even if he wanted to catch crabs, he couldn't look down on such a small one.

Of course, it does not mean that the small crab is useless, the small crab can be made into sauce crab or drunk crab, the small crab is washed and added with high liquor, minced garlic, ginger slices, soy sauce, and sugar pickled for a few days before eating.

The marinated crab meat is fresh and smooth, melts in the mouth, and is accompanied by a strong aroma of wine and the saltiness of the sauce, which will definitely make those who like to eat it want to stop. But for those who can't accept raw food, it's an absolutely horrible hellish dish.

If you love someone, remember to give him sauce crab, and if you hate someone, you can also give him sauce crab.

Sauce crab has a long history in China, and the earliest written record about it can be traced back to the "Zhou Li", as early as the ancient people of the Zhou Dynasty have mastered the method of making sauce crab.

Impetuous modern people will inevitably feel that it is too childish to use this small crab to make sauce crab, and some people will use big crabs to make it, thinking that it will be more refreshing to eat more meat. In fact, although there is not much meat in the small crab, it is better because the meat is tender, the shell is thin and easy to taste, and only the small crab can make the most perfect flavor of the sauce crab.

Because there is more shell and less meat, you need to bring a little bit of leisure and elegance when tasting the sauce crab, but you can't be in a hurry. It's a bit like eating melon seeds, although the meat is scarce and troublesome, and it's impossible to count on eating this to fill your stomach, but the process of peeling the shell and tasting is still fascinating.

Chang Zhaowen didn't have this kind of leisure now, and he was anxious to find the fruit that would allow him to complete his task.

What is that?!

His gaze stretched along a crab hole in the ground, and finally, a few small yellow balls were scattered on the ground three steps away.

There is nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get them!

Chang Zhaowen strode forward, bending down to pick up a small fruit with a shell from the ground. This is...... Longan?

Slowly raising his head, he raised the flashlight in his hand high and shone it on the tree, where the layers of slender leaves were covered with yellow shelled fruits.

It's really a dragon's eye!

Chang Zhao Wen was overjoyed, jumped up on the spot, and grabbed a branch with fruit hanging on it. Under the action of his external force, the branches were bent, Chang Zhaowen opened his mouth to bite the flashlight, freed one hand, and plucked a lot of longan from the bent branches.

Letting go of the hand holding the branch, the bent branch was reset with a "boom". Chang Zhaowen's face was excited, most of today's task was completed at once, he stretched out the index finger and thumb of his right hand and twisted one, and looked at the fruit in his hand with satisfaction.

Wrong!

Chang Zhaowen's eyes dimmed instantly, and he stepped forward against the damp wind, and a clear stream appeared in front of him. When he came to the side of the stream, he suddenly peeled off the "dragon's eye" in his hand, held the peels tightly in his hand, squatted on the edge of the stream and put his hand into the stream.

It didn't take long for him to pull his wet hand out of the water, and let go of his palm, which was covered with white foam.

"Huh!" He sighed and threw the "longan" he had just picked at his feet, which was not a longan at all, but another fruit that was extremely similar in appearance to longan, but completely different in substance - soapberry.

Soapberry is commonly known as false longan, also known as hand washing fruit, its peel contains a large amount of saponin, and soap horn can replace soap like soap, is a natural detergent.

But soapberry is slightly toxic and can be used to kill insects, but it is not an edible fruit!

Chang Zhaowen rubbed his swollen and sore temples with his hands, and he had a headache! In the end, it's all in vain!

At this time, he noticed that the flashlight in his hand began to flicker rhythmically......
