Chapter 434
Fan Ming followed Zhang Taiping's finger and looked overhead, the sunlight formed a ghost on the tree, and he didn't see what it was for a while, so he asked strangely, "What is it?" ”
"You can't see it?" Zhang Taiping asked. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Quan// Ben// Small // Say // Net //
She shifted her position to miss the ghosting of the sun's rays on the trees, and closed her hand to her brow to see what was on it. Between the trees were gourd vine-like vines, with egg-sized fruits hanging from them.
"Is this also a wild fruit?" Fan Ming asked with a wink.
Before Zhang Taiping could answer, a little doll shouted: "This is Bali Bomb!" ”
Fan Ming naturally hadn't heard of this title, nor had she seen this thing, so she asked Zhang Taiping, "Big brother, what kind of fruit is Bali fried?" ”
The name of the mountain people, as for its scientific name Zhang Taiping is not very clear, spread his hands and said: "The mountain people call it like this, as for what it looks like, you will know when you take it off in a while." With that, he placed a large pile of things on his shoulders on the ground, and then took a long pole with a hook to hook down the tall vines.
After the vines fell to the ground, Fan Ming and the children gathered around to check, Fan Ming picked one off and asked, "Big brother, why did it all explode?" ”
Zhang Taiping replied with a smile: "Eight miles of explosion, it means that it is mature." ”
"Oh." Fan Ming looked at the little dolls beside her, and followed their example to break open the shell that had exploded, and the flesh inside was sent into her mouth. Both the texture and taste are a bit similar to bananas.
Zhang Taiping pulled down a few more rattans and stopped, saying: "This thing is not resistant to preservation, especially after it is ripe, the vines will break down in a day or two, so just pick a little less and taste it." ”
Just when a group of people, even Zhang Taiping, were picking up the vines and blowing them up, the three big dogs suddenly barked in one direction.
Zhang Taiping immediately became vigilant, this time he entered the mountain with so many children, if something happened, it would be bad, and the knife appeared between the palms of his hands as soon as he turned over the knife. His mind had turned a few times between the lightning and the fire, and he had already made a decision, if it was really a wolf pack, he would inevitably use the guns in the space.
Xiao Zi and the big tail squirrel climbed the tree neatly after hearing the roar of the big dog, and watched vigilantly on the tree. Xiaoxi flew out of Zhang Taiping's pocket and flew in the direction of the grimace and their roar to check the situation.
Without waiting for Xiaoxi to fly back, Ah Huang and the lion rushed over, only the grimace was still guarding Zhang Taiping's side.
Zhang Taiping was afraid that something would happen to the two big dogs, so he also followed, but he didn't let a group of little dolls here, so he let them follow the lion and Ah Huang with him. At this time, the little dolls also knew that something was wrong, and followed Zhang Taiping closely and stopped running around.
Not far away, the roars of Ah Huang and the lion rang out, and when they heard their not very nervous roars, they knew that they were not in danger, at least it meant that they had not met the wolves, so Zhang Taiping's heart was half relieved.
After that, he shook his head with a wry smile and said to himself: "It's really a mess if you really care, it's not how wolves suddenly appear in the deep mountains." "The main thing is that he leads a large group of powerless little dolls, and the burden of responsibility on his body is heavy, and when he encounters a problem, he first thinks of the worst-case scenario.
Xiaoxi flew over and landed on Zhang Taiping's shoulder, lightly flapped his wings a few times, and then combed his feathers. From its reaction, Zhang Taiping knew that there should be no danger ahead, so his heart relaxed, but he still maintained the vigilance he should have when walking in the mountains.
Turning around a few large trees, I came to a slightly empty place. Seeing the scene in the field, Zhang Taiping was completely relieved.
Speaking of which, Zhang Taiping and the big guy in the field have already had several encounters, and they are old acquaintances. But this time there's a little one.
The big black blind man with white hair in the shape of a crescent moon on his chest was followed by a small black blind man, who also had a crescent mark on his chest. The little black blind man hid behind the big black blind man amid the roar of the lion and Ah Huang, and did not dare to show his face.
The lion and Ah Huang circled around the black blind man to find the best offensive position, and the big black blind man inside also opened his mouth and showed his fierceness.
"Lion! Ah Huang! "After Zhang Taiping came over, he stopped their upcoming attack.
"Yikes! It's the black blind man! Fan Ming's expression was a little excited, "It's a pity that I didn't bring a camera this time." ”
This is not the case with other children, Yaya approached and pulled Zhang Taiping's clothes.
"It's black blind." The little dolls' voices began to tremble, because of the terrible legends they had heard about the black blind man at home, and if they had let him lick his face and nose, it would be gone.
Zhang Taiping patted Yaya's hand and said, "Dad is here, don't be afraid." Then let the girl let go of the corner of her clothes, although she knew that the black blind man would not do anything after seeing her. The biggest possibility is to turn around and run away, but it can't help but let it suddenly rush over with some madness, so I didn't let Yaya pull herself so as not to be inconvenient at that time.
When the big black blind man saw Zhang Taiping, he stood up with his forelimbs off the ground and his hind limbs, yelled at Zhang Taiping, and then turned around and ran towards the woods, followed closely by the little black blind man.
The lion and Ah Huang also wanted to pursue, but were stopped by Zhang Taiping. Zhang Taiping was embarrassed by the meaning of the two black blind people, one big and one small, and did not explore the idea of why they came to the mountain at this time.
After the black blind man was gone, the little dolls came alive again, chattering about what they had just seen. Now that I have the capital to show off after I go back, it's a black blind man, and I saw two, and when I go back and say it, I will be able to envy the little friend who didn't come.
"The lion and Ah Huang are amazing!" A little doll exclaimed, "Even the black blind man was scared, and scared them away at once!" ”
Zhang Taiping listened to the children's discussion, smiled, and said to them: "From now on, follow me, don't run around, you know?" Otherwise, the blind man with you will drag you into the mountains and eat you. ”
Hearing Zhang Taiping's words, the little dolls were still very scared, and they nodded their heads and gathered around Zhang Taiping, only Fan Ming was casually looking at the situation on this small empty space.
Picked up a round grunt thing from the ground and asked Zhang Taiping, "Big brother, what is this?" ”
Zhang Taiping looked at the tree where the big and small black blind man was in the field just now and said, "This is a hickory." "There are still some scattered on the ground, which must have been brought down by the big black blind man who had just rubbed or slapped on the tree.
"That's not the case with walnuts." Fan Ming asked strangely, "Aren't the walnuts I've ever seen all pockmarked faces?" ”
Zhang Taiping said: "That's the walnut that has been peeled after ripening, and this is not peeled yet." ”
"There's still a layer of skin on the outside?"
Zhang Taiping nodded.
Fan Ming stuck out her tongue and said, "I thought walnuts were the same bumpy appearance on the tree." As he spoke, he looked around looking for a stone to smash it open to see.
"If the green water from the green skin is stained on the top of the hand, the whole hand will become black and ugly, and it can't be cleaned for a long time, so be careful when you smash the green skin, it's best not to splash it on your face." Zhang Taiping said with a smile.
"That's it." Fan Ming looked at the walnuts in her hand, checked them and said, "Then forget it." ”
Fan Ming didn't dare, it didn't mean that a group of little dolls didn't dare, they found stones from the side and squatted on the ground and smashed the green skin outside. Fan Ming was watching from the side, and sure enough, the little hands stained with green water turned black in the wind.
After a small doll peeled it off, she took out the white walnut kernels inside, handed a piece to Fan Ming, and then handed a piece to Yaya and Zhang Taiping.
Fan Ming put it directly in her mouth, chewed it twice, frowned and said, "How is it bitter?" ”
Zhang Taiping replied: "The top layer of skin will become tasteless when it is dried, but it is really bitter when it is newly planted on the tree, and it should be peeled off when eating." ”
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Zhang Taiping spread his hands and said, "I thought you knew." ”
Two more children smashed open the walnuts and handed them to Zhang Taiping and said, "Uncle Handsome, the wild walnuts are also ripe, let's fold some more walnuts." ”
Zhang Taiping said: "Okay! "I went straight over and kicked the thick peach tree, and some of the ripe ones fell down one after another.
There are several aliases for pecans, and the production area calls pecans "mountain crabs", because "pits" and "crabs" speak similarly in dialects. Changhua people also call pecans "Da Ming fruit", and there is a story of Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Bowen in it.
In the Guanzhong area, it is called wild walnut, which is distributed in large quantities throughout the Qinling Mountains. And when it comes to wild walnuts in the Qinling Mountains, we have to talk about Shangluo's walnuts.
Shangluo walnut is said to be brought back from the Western Regions by Zhang Qian of the Western Han Dynasty and planted in Chang'an, Kyoto, but the "land of dragons and phoenixes" is not suitable for the growth and development of walnuts, so it was distributed to Shangluo Mountain. How do you know, walnuts have been blessed by misfortune, and they have found a treasure land to settle down and make a fortune, so as to multiply into a Wang family. Its wide distribution, the number of plants, the huge output, the excellent quality, the abundance of varieties and strains, the first in the province, the crown in the country.
The climate, rain and soil in the Shangluo Mountains are the most suitable for the growth of walnuts, and there are unique natural conditions. Moreover, the mountain people are industrious and simple, rely on the mountains to raise the mountains, plant trees for fun, regard walnuts as treasures, and cherish them incomparably. Therefore, walnuts here are widely distributed, no matter deep mountains, canyons, hills, and plains, there are walnuts growing. As the folk song says: "Walnut slope, walnut ditch, walnut head, walnut road, walnut trees all over the mountain, walnuts touch people's heads."
Pecans can not only be eaten, but also have great cultural value. Small pecans, in the eyes of different people, will leave different marks. In the eyes of gourmets, pecans are a delicacy; In the eyes of merchants, pecans can be sold for money; In the eyes of pharmacists, pecans can be used in medicine...... In the poet's eyes, pecans present a kind of beauty......
The famous poet Ai Qing once wrote: "They all look like they are cast in bronze / Engraved with oracle bones / Also like boxwood carvings / Exquisite and transparent, infinitely changing / I don't know if it is a dialogue between heaven and earth / Or a text of wind, rain, thunder and lightning"
When the poet writes "The Pecan", he does not write about the flesh wrapped in its bones, but focuses on the pattern of the pecan, which is naturally formed. Because the poet admired this pattern, it aroused the poet's feelings. And there are still many people in the world who regard this as a hobby, and the veins on the pecan can change everything in their eyes, and it has a huge collection value.
The medicinal value of pecans is huge and immeasurable.
According to the "Compendium of Materia Medica", pecans have a sweet and flat taste, can replenish qi and blood, regulate dryness and dissolve phlegm, warm and replenish the kidneys and lungs, and fix asthma. Eating pecans often can nourish the blood, increase appetite, black beard, and can also cure sexual dysfunction, neurasthenia, memory loss and other diseases, so there is a proverb that "often eat walnut oil, white-haired old man plays yak".
Pecans have the function of nourishing and maintaining health for people of all ages, and pregnant women eat more to help the bone development of the fetus; Children's frequent eating is conducive to growth and development, enhancing memory, and protecting eyesight; Young people often eat it to make the body fit and the skin smooth; Middle-aged and elderly people often eat it, which can protect the heart and lungs, and prolong life.
Therefore, compared with the home walnut, the pecan is superior in both nutrition and value. The walnuts on the market cost more than 20 yuan a catty, but the pecans are sold for 45 yuan a catty.
Zhang Taiping kicked the huge walnut tree twice and saw that there were no more walnuts falling, so he picked up the pole and reached down from above, recalling the huge value of pecans for all ages, he didn't mind hooking down more.
Fan Ming asked while helping to pick up the walnuts scattered on the ground, "Big brother, how do you get rid of this green belt when you go back?" You can't just use your hands to fade away one by one and end up with black hands, right? ”
Zhang Taiping shook his head with a smile and said: "If there are too many of them, it will naturally not be like this, after going back, I want to bury them in the sand or soil for a period of time, there is a substance on the green skin that is easy to rot, and it can make the green skin black and fade away in a few days, and finally it only needs to be taken out and dried in the sun." ”
"Well, there's got to be an easy way." Fan Ming said with a smile.
After picking up the walnuts, there were two more big bags, but this was not much weight for Zhang Taiping, just a thicker trunk to carry it.
Because of the need to protect the safety of these little dolls, Zhang Taiping has always let three big dogs guard the surroundings, so there is no such thing as catching rabbits and pheasants.
When Fan Ming came out of the mountain, he suddenly remembered something, turned to Zhang Taiping and asked, "Big brother, I just saw you holding a knife in your hand, where did you put it?" ”
Ye Ling was also very curious about what happened to the knife that suddenly appeared and disappeared just now, but she didn't ask it, and now that Fan Ming asked, she also pricked up her ears and listened carefully.
Zhang Taiping looked at a curious and inquiring gaze, a puffed up ear, shook his head with a smile, and did not speak.
"Big brother, tell me, where did you put the knife?" Fan Ming put her voice sweet and glutinous.
Zhang Taiping was indifferent: "It's a secret. ”
"Big brother is so stingy!" Fan Ming turned her head a little angrily, and then secretly looked at Zhang Taiping, seeing that he just smiled and ignored himself, he couldn't help but be a little frustrated.
As for Ye Ling, although she was very curious, it would be impossible for her to take the initiative to ask, she would only rot this curiosity into her stomach. If you say it well, you are sensible, and if you say it badly, you are like a stuffy gourd.
Finally, before the sun set, I got out of the mountain and stood on a hillside to see the village below. Zhang Taiping couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief, it was really tiring to worry about the safety of so many little dolls, and this kind of thing of taking the little dolls into the mountains in the future could not be done.
Looking at the tired children, he said, "Don't be in a hurry now, sit down and rest." ”
Out of Ye Ling, all the people were waiting for Zhang Taiping's words. This time, one is because of carrying things, and the other is because there are too many little dolls, Zhang Taiping did not do anything special, so the little girl who came to Yaya along the way walked by herself but walked back, and she was tired at this time. What is valuable is that the little girl never shouted tired along the way, nor did she say anything for Zhang Taiping to hold or carry.
Zhang Taiping stroked her head and said, "Yaya is so good!" ”
Although Yaya didn't understand why her father suddenly praised herself, she still smiled sweetly.
The sun was not shining brightly, and it looked like a large red plate hanging three feet above the top of the mountain.
"The sun is so big." Yaya sat beside Zhang Taiping, feeling the warm red light sprinkled on her face and said.
Yaya's words attracted the little dolls' hearts to the sun.
"It's been so short for the sun to go up and down the mountaintop." A little girl about the same age as Yaya pinched two fingers and measured the distance from the sun to the top of the mountain.
Zhang Taiping was amused by her actions, and looking at the cheerful scene of the little dolls making a mess, his heart was also relaxed.
Just when Zhang Taiping was immersed in this atmosphere, a voice interrupted.
"Hey! There's a little garlic here! ”
Hearing this, the children all turned around and began to look on the ground.
Only Fan Ming didn't understand what little garlic was, and asked Zhang Taiping, "Big brother, what is this?" ”
"Little garlic." Zhang Taiping said with a smile.
"I know it's garlic, but what is garlic?" Fan Ming asked.
"Won't you know how many you have dug out yourself?" Zhang Taiping said with a smile.
Fan Ming glanced at him when he heard this, and went over to pick up the one that the little dolls had dug out and looked at it, the top looked like a green onion that had shrunk several times, and the root at the bottom looked like a shrunken garlic.
"Can you eat this?" Fan Ming asked.
Zhang Taiping said with a smile: "It's good to eat a little spicy garlic, but it's best to make dumplings with big meat." ”
"Can you make dumplings?" Fan Ming's eyes lit up, "Then shave some more, and make dumplings once when you go back to taste what it tastes like." ”
Zhang Taiping said: "Whatever you want." "He didn't come over to help anyway.
When the sun hung on the top of the mountain, he stood up and said, "Okay, it's time to go back when you've rested enough, or you'll get beaten up on your ass when you've gotten back." ”
Zhang Taiping's scare actually doesn't have much effect on the little dolls, children are honest, often forget the time when they play and go home very late, it is common to be slapped a few times by their parents on the buttocks, and there is nothing to be afraid of after experiencing more.
