Chapter 12: The Rainy Season (1)

The rain of the rainy season came as usual, it was not big at the beginning, it was fine and dense, and the tribe was permeated in the misty drizzle, except that it was not a good feeling to make the whole world damp, Gu Xi was still full of joy, because it meant that after the rainy season, there would be more food in the mountains and forests.

At this time, the husband Huo Bai and Gu Xi were walking up the mountain, accompanied by the husband of the Tong family, Song Xuan also wanted to see what the mushrooms Gu Xi said were, because some people had picked similar things before, and some people had died because of it, he was a little uneasy, although Gu Xi repeatedly assured that what he knew was not poisonous, he still had to see it for himself.

It rained for three days, today is finally cloudy, the fresh vegetables at home are almost finished, although there is no shortage of food, but listening to Huo Bai said, the size of this rain does not affect the mountain, Gu Xi is still moved, and they all say that mushrooms have sprung up after the rain, at this time the spring shoots in the bamboo forest should have emerged a lot, the spring bamboo shoots at this time must be more fresh, you have to drool when you think about it, more importantly, after the rain-irrigated forest, there must be a lot of mushrooms coming out, before, it has not rained, and there are no mushrooms in the mountains and forests. It had rained for three days this time, and Gu Xi wanted to go and see it, so he finally decided to go up the mountain.

After three days of rain baptism, the forest exudes a strong smell of earth, and the air is humid, Gu Xi paid attention to the land under his feet, looked at all kinds of small mushrooms, and was excited, sure enough, he did not disappoint, there was no large-scale mining, this is the most primitive mountain forest, and the number of mushrooms is very considerable.

"Haha, shiitake mushrooms, I found shiitake mushrooms" Gu Xi squatted on the ground, scooped up a mushroom, and smelled the smell, it was exactly the same as the shiitake mushroom, one was indeed half the size of a palm.

After confirming that it was a shiitake mushroom, Gu Xi simply began to pick it, there were large patches of mushrooms here, and he didn't dare to pick them indiscriminately, he only heard that the brightly colored ones were poisonous, and he couldn't guarantee the others, he had also seen on the Internet before that there were not brightly colored mushrooms that could also be poisoned, and he could only be sure that shiitake mushrooms, oyster mushrooms and fungus were often seen at the moment.

"This tastes a little peculiar" Song Xuan frowned, not quite sure that this strange-tasting mushroom could be eaten.

"This mushroom is like this, some people like to eat, some people don't like it, it's the same as the white-haired beast, but it's a different taste, and after this thing is dried, it can be stored until the cold winter, and when it's cold winter, take it out and soak it in water, and you can eat it" Gu Xi didn't like to eat shiitake mushrooms originally, and when he was a child, he couldn't stand the smell of shiitake mushrooms, and then he didn't know how the taste changed, and he felt that shiitake mushrooms were also delicious, especially when eating hot pot.

"Then pick more, I'll ponder when I go back" As soon as Song Xuan heard that it could be stored for a long time, he didn't mean that it was strange or not, people in the orc world have a bit of a storage habit, it is best to have as many as possible, and Gu Xi has also developed this habit.

Soon they picked a big bag of shiitake mushrooms, and the shiitake mushrooms were not heavy in the animal skin bag, because there were many more, one here, one there, and they decided to pick more, anyway, they could go back and dry them. Gu Xi also found fungus on a fallen tree, because the tree is very large, there are enough fungus, it is really refreshing to pick, it is not easy to buy this wild mushroom on the earth, the nutritional value must be very good, there is no pollution at all.

"This fungus is also a good thing, go back and fry it with the clucking bird eggs, it's delicious" Gu Xihuan was overjoyed, his subordinates didn't stop, this feeling of digging casually and not wanting money was honest, he enjoyed it very much.

Because it is not far from the bamboo forest, Huo Bai and Tong Bo went to the bamboo forest to dig bamboo shoots first, and sure enough, as Gu Xi said, a lot of bamboo shoots were originally picked by the clansmen, and a lot of them popped up, they picked a bag and came back, bamboo shoots are still the most delicious to eat while they are fresh, Huo Bai and Tong Bo joined the mushroom picking team together, their speed is a lot faster, when they returned to the tribe, the big tiger carried several bags of mushrooms on his back, and there were so many mushrooms when he returned home, Gu Xiguang used straw rope to string them one by one and hang them in the storeroom to dry, and it took a lot of time.

Dinner in the evening as usual, and we ate together at Tong's house, Gu Xi made a clucking bird stewed mushroom, full of a large pot of clucking bird meat and shiitake mushrooms, enough for a few tigers to eat, no need to fight for food, the clear fungus fried clucking bird eggs are also very popular, these are not too testing cooking skills, stew together, fry together, the main thing is that the ingredients are good enough, just do it, it is also better than usual, and everyone is very satisfied.

"Qi Qi, you can take some shiitake mushrooms and send them to Uncle Li's house later" Song Xuan took out a bag of shiitake mushrooms and handed them to Tong Qi, Uncle Li is Yan Yan's mother and father, "It's raining, and their food is definitely not enough." Song Xuan also wanted to take some meat, but Uncle Li was unwilling to accept help from others in vain, and only this kind of thing that could be picked casually in the mountains and forests could still be sent.

"Ah...... Shall I go? As soon as Tong Qi heard that he was going to Yan Yan's house, he liked his own sub-beast, so he felt so nervous, he was not ready to meet others.

"Stinky boy, just send something, what's so nervous! Out of breath! Song Xuan unceremoniously gave his son a slap, and glared at Tong Bo in a blink of an eye, that look was just to say, have a virtue with you.

"Son, are you scared?" Tong Bo immediately encouraged.

"I'm not afraid, isn't it just to send something, I'll go" Tong Qi assured loudly, and then turned his head and begged Tong Xiu, "Brother, you will accompany me later......"

Tong Qi has never liked anyone when he is so old, and there is no point of view of falling in love in the orc world, usually when he is old, he sees the right eye, and thinks that it is this person, and immediately confesses, and if he agrees, he will take it home to hold a ceremony, and if he disagrees, he will continue to look for a partner, so I just heard that there is a sub-beast that likes him, and the big and small boy Tong Qi is embarrassed, and the other party seems to have silently liked himself for a long time.

So Tong Qi stepped on the fluttering steps and shrank his head and secretly looked at Yan Yan's house, this is the little Asian beast he saved last time, it looks so small, I heard that his health is not good, no wonder he doesn't see it much in the tribe.

"It's not promising, it's my brother because you're wrong" Tong Xiu looked at his stupid brother hiding in the corner and peeking at him, and he felt a little disdainful.

"I'll try it for you," Tong Qi was unconvinced.

"People like you, not me, besides, when I meet someone I like in the future, I will go home directly, and my father will definitely support me"

Tong Bocai, who squatted pitifully in front of the door of the sub-beast's house for three days before he hugged the beauty, would not tell his sons about his sad past, he would not say that he saw that his eldest brother was Huo Bai's father did this, and he did the same, but he was stoned by his daughter-in-law and was full of bags, and he pretended to be pitiful at the door of his daughter-in-law's house for three days before he succeeded.

Tong Qi won't learn from his brother, yesterday his mother and father said, to respect the beast, if you really like it, just get along, hmm...... still likes it a little, so he won't say that he has been deeply stimulated by Huo Bai and Gu Xi's husband-in-law life recently.

"If you don't go, soon it will be dark and you won't be able to see!" Tong Xiu pushed his younger brother out.

"Alas, alas, don't push it, I'm going," Tong Qi said, but his body shrank back.

Over there, Yan Yan was getting things in the yard, and at a glance, he saw Tong Qi pushed out by his brother in the corner of the wall not far away, and he was stunned on the spot.

"People have found out, go quickly" Tong Xiu dropped a sentence and ran away.

Tong Qi had no choice but to bite the bullet, he walked over and handed over a bag of shiitake mushrooms: "Yan Yan, I'm ...... My mother and father asked me to bring some shiitake mushrooms to your house. ”

"Shiitake mushrooms? What is Shiitake mushroom? Yan Yan was also full of nervousness.

"Haha, this is the mushroom, it's delicious, Gu Xi found it, it's delicious to stew with the clucking bird, you can pick it in the mountains and forests" Tong Qi explained, only to feel that his face was slowly reddening, what to do, he felt that Yan Yan was small, good looking, "It's not early!" I...... I still have something to do, I'll go first" and wanted to run.

"Tong Qi!" Yan Yan stopped him.

Tong Qi died of embarrassment, at this moment, he felt that Yan Yan would confess to him face to face, and he didn't dare to move for an instant.

"Ah...... Thank you" When the words came to his mouth, Yan Yan still held it back, he didn't dare to say it.

Tong Qi was inexplicably disappointed, and slowly turned around and left.

Knowing that he couldn't see Tong Qi's figure, Gu Xi, who was hiding on the side, couldn't help but rush out anymore: "Yan Yan, why don't you say it, he likes you too" He was really anxious to die just now, and he thought that he could do it today, but he didn't expect that Yan Yan didn't say anything when he said it.

"Brother Gu, I like Tong Qi, but I want to be the same as you and Huo Bai, the two of them like each other, Tong Qi is not sure if he likes me or not" Yan Yan said in a low voice.

"You are stupid, do you all get along well, Huo Baina and I have been together for a long time before we like each other."

"Well, then I'll get along with him again, he will like me, just like Huo Bai likes you!"

Gu Xi praised Yan Yan's little pride, usually looking at Yan Yan with a shy and shy timid appearance, it turned out that there was no ambiguity in feelings, think about yourself, how could you agree to Huo Bai so quickly, in modern times, it is simply a flash marriage, although the ceremony has not been held yet, they all live together!

When he went home in the evening, Gu Xi lay on the bed and said, "Huo Bai, the two of us are making too fast progress!" ”

Huo Bai was anxious: "Daughter-in-law, it's not fast at all, we've been together for more than two months, I'm just that to you, love at first sight!" Right! The first time I saw you, I decided that I was the best orc, and you promised me that as soon as the harvest season arrived, we would hold a ceremony, and you could regret it! "Accusations from Huo Bai.

Gu Xi gave a roll of his eyes, what did he think was the matter with the big white tiger being so cold, but now he shouldn't be too thick-skinned!.
