Chapter 21: Encounter (II)
The mist slowly dissipated as the sun rose, and the tall peaks revealed the greenery of the mountains, and as the path slowly moved up the mountain, there were fewer and fewer people.
Zhang Xiaojie saw that there were a lot fewer people, and began to look for fungi under trees or in places with more fallen leaves and soft soil.
Suddenly, a clump of green mixed with white on the ground attracted Zhang Xiaojie's attention, squatted down and carefully picked up the grass growing around, and found a large piece of fungus holding a small flat umbrella cover, and looked carefully and found that this was a relatively rare wild blue-headed mushroom in the previous life.
Cyancephalic mushrooms can relieve the fire of the liver meridian, dissipate heat and relieve qi, and have a good therapeutic effect on depression and depression, which is very suitable for stewed soup or stir-fried to eat.
Zhang Xiaojie put down the back basket from the back and stood next to it, put two handfuls of grass in the back basket and put it on the pad, stretched out her hand and carefully picked the mature green head fungus, and kept the remaining small mycelium, made a mark on the side, and kept it for next time.
This is the habit of farmers who rely on the mountains to eat mountains, the spring hunter will release the female beast when he hits it, and the female beast with a baby will also be released at any time, picking wild vegetables will never break the roots, keep them to sprout again in the next year, picking fungi will not destroy the mycelium, maybe they don't understand the principle of ecological balance, but they naturally follow the growth rules of the mountains and forests and the earth.
Because there are a lot of blue-headed mushrooms here, there are probably seven or eight flowers that can be picked, and Zhang Xiaojie continues to walk forward with a basket on her back, ready to pick more, anyway, these mushrooms can be dried and eaten, but I am not afraid that they will be bad.
The more you go inside, the more dense the plants become, Zhang Xiaojie is afraid of getting lost, so she recorded some star-shaped marks along the way, and looked at the grass in several places without harvesting, but also, although there are many fungi in this season, there are many people who pick them.
Because there are so few fungi and Zhang Xiaojie has not found them a few times in her memory, she only collected medicine in her previous life, and wild mushrooms are as rare as wild and precious Chinese medicine, so Zhang Xiaojie only knows a few in her memory.
Zhang Xiaojie began to collect some common medicinal herbs along the way, such as common epimedium and herbs, without a knife at hand, and could only collect some goat weed leaves, rhizomes are not to be considered. Epimedium leaves with medicinal value have the effect of tonifying kidney yang, strengthening muscles and bones, and dispelling rheumatism.
Huoxiang can be used as a seasoning, see a small plant on the hand to pull a plant, as for the precious medicinal materials of the last year, in a mountain has been concentrated on the induction, but nothing found, after all, this is still a mountain, even if there is also a collection of almost.
A fragrant smell came, Zhang Xiaojie walked forward, and found that there was a tender yellow in the depths of the dense forest, smelling this fragrance Zhang Xiaojie felt very similar to the chanterelles he had eaten before, also called goldenrod mushrooms, this kind of fungus is rare, and it is one of the world's four famous fungi in the previous life.
Zhang Xiaojie looked around, found no danger, looked at the path and walked forward, pushed aside the dense forest and cautiously probed in, and found that it was indeed a large piece of chanterelles, which grew just right, and the large patches of bright tender yellow called the surrounding verdant trees even more mouthwatering.
Zhang Xiaojie excitedly ran over to pick it up, separated the greenhead mushrooms and chanterelles with grass, and looked at the slowly full back basket Zhang Xiaojie felt satisfied.
When the mature chanterelles have been collected, only some small ones have not yet grown, Zhang Xiaojie is ready to find a clean place without dew to take a break, and most of the fungi in the back basket are enough to eat a few times, and no matter how much they can't carry.
Looking around and finding a few dead trees in the distance, Zhang Xiaojie went to the place of dead wood with a basket on her back, found a clean and unwet place and prepared to sit down, and when she turned around and sat down, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a few white fungi on the dead wood in the distance.
Zhang Xiaojie got up and took a closer look, there were clumps growing on the dead wood, the color was white and tender, there was no pungent taste, and the shape was very similar to the oyster mushrooms eaten in the previous life.
This oyster mushroom is a good thing, it is also known as the North Wind Mushroom, which is warm and sweet, and has a good inhibitory effect on cancer cells. Thinking of these, Zhang Xiaojie happily prepared to reach out and pick it.
"Don't move" suddenly came a soft shout, Zhang Xiaojie subconsciously stopped the hand stretched forward, turned his head to see a man wearing green clothes, with a bow and arrow hanging from his waist, his complexion was bronze, his facial features were clearly defined and deep, and his black hair was firmly held by a wooden hairpin.
Zhang Xiaojie withdrew her hand, stood up, looked at the man in front of her, and maybe said that the young man was better, "Are you?" ”
The young man in Tsing Yi looked at the flexible and slender figure in front of him, his face still had the flush after climbing, a pair of dark eyes with questions, and he looked at himself with a slight vigilance, so he couldn't help but pull the corners of his mouth and smile: "The one you just picked is called white fungus, it is similar to ginkgo biloba, fragile and fragile, and it will turn flesh-colored soon after picking, but it is highly toxic and can cause sudden death, during which there will be edema and bleeding."
After Zhang Xiaojie heard this, she couldn't help but be a little afraid and blamed herself for being too reckless, obviously she had been an adult for so long in her previous life and still didn't know the severity, but fortunately she was reminded that there were no consequences.
Looking at the young man in front of him who reminded him, Zhang Xiaojie opened his mouth and thanked him: "Thank you for reminding me, but now I'm going down the mountain", as she spoke, Zhang Xiaojie picked out some chanterelles from the back basket, wrapped them in big leaves, and handed them to the young man in Tsing Yi opposite, "I'll give you these, thank you." ”
"Just a reminder, I don't need it", seeing that Zhang Xiaojie insisted, the young man in Tsing Yi was a little embarrassed to stretch out his slightly thick hand to take the leaf bag handed by Zhang Xiaojie and said: "Since this is the case, then this is for you." The young man in Tsing Yi took it and put it in the big back basket behind him, and immediately took out a pheasant with bright feathers from it to Zhang Xiaojie.
Zhang Xiaojie hurriedly excused himself and said: "Don't, I'm just thanking you, I didn't spend much effort looking for this, but it's not easy for you to hunt at such a young age, if your father knows that there is no chicken, he will definitely teach you a lesson." Zhang Xiaojie knows that there are not many hunters in the village now, and it is difficult to catch things.
"It's okay, I made it myself, you just take it, otherwise I can't ask for this" The young man in Tsing Yi said persistently with a pheasant.
Zhang Xiaojie didn't expect this young man to be so powerful, looking at the young man in Tsing Yi in front of him, he was not as powerful and cold as he saw at the beginning, and the pheasant in his hand completely destroyed the image, "It's okay, your pheasant is worth more than mushrooms, I really can't ask for it." ”
The young man in Tsing Yi didn't speak while holding the pheasant, but looked at Zhang Xiaojie with persistent and serious eyes, and the corners of his mouth tightened.
"Okay, so you tell me what your name is, and I'll pick some wild vegetables for you when I have a chance in the future?" Zhang Xiaojie saw that she really couldn't refuse, so she could only compromise.
