After eating something, everyone got ready to go again. In the air, the snow sculpture leads the way.

"There is not much dew today, so it's convenient to travel." The fifth uncle said, if the dew is usually heavy, you may be soaked before you go far.

"The weather is good, and it shouldn't rain for the next two days." Old man Li also spoke.

"It's all autumn now, the so-called: autumn is high and cool! The weather will certainly be good. Liu Yang interjected.

The weather in autumn is relatively dry, and the weather is dry, which means autumn and winter. At this time, there is very little rain, and the wind is quite strong, so fires are more likely to break out during these two seasons.

"Not necessarily, the weather on our southern coast is a bit unpredictable, and it is not surprising that there will be a rain." Chu Jiaqiang said.

Without dwelling on this issue for a long time, the little squirrel suddenly jumped away from Chu Jiaqiang's shoulder, and a few ups and downs disappeared.

What are the six little squirrels going to do? Ye Xiaoshuang asked curiously. It's a question that no one can answer, and who knows but the little squirrel himself?

Everyone deliberately slowed down, of course, they were not afraid that the little squirrel would get lost, in the mountains. No one knows the mountains better than them, not even the fifth uncle.

Soon, the little squirrel returned, carrying a sprig of wild fruit on his shoulder, and his appearance was very funny, and everyone immediately laughed. It came to Chu Jiaqiang and handed it to Chu Jiaqiang as hard as a treasure.

Chu Jiaqiang couldn't cry or laugh a little, this little guy really worked hard to please himself and strive for aura! He was not stingy, took the fruit, touched the little guy's head, and gave it an aura by the way. The little squirrel squeaked and danced with his hands.

Ye Xiaoshuang saw that the fruit was oblong, about a meter in diameter, densely covered with yellow-brown branched pubescence. The section of vine that the little squirrel folded back had more than a dozen fruits hanging on it.

"This is a kiwi? The little squirrel is amazing. Ye Xiaoshuang praised.

Old man Li shook his head with a smile and said, "It's not a kiwi, it's a wild fruit in the mountains, called a fox peach." ”

"Fox Peach? I haven't heard of it, but that's what I used to eat with kiwi. "Ye Xiaoshuang found it very interesting, one is a kiwi and the other is a fox peach, both of which are named after animals.

Professor Wen also nodded, "Yes, this is indeed not a kiwi. In fact, kiwi and fox peach are full of appearances, and they can't be distinguished without careful observation. Kiwi is a little smaller, because macaques like this fruit, so it is also called kiwi. Fox peach is a wild fruit in the mountains, and the taste is sour, but the nutritional value is actually similar to that of kiwifruit, and it is a good thing. ”

Although Professor Wen does not specialize in plants, some common mountain fruits are still familiar.

The whole body of kiwifruit is a treasure, the root is medicinal, clearing heat and detoxifying, invigorating blood and reducing swelling, diuretic and drenching: soil pesticides, can kill camellia caterpillars, rice borers, aphids, etc. The stem contains a viscous gum, which can be used as a raw material for construction and papermaking. The leaves can be used as fodder. Flowers can extract essences. Fruit contains sugar, organic acids, especially vitamin C, which can be eaten raw and made into jam.

Chu Jiaqiang didn't speak, these fox peaches were already very ripe. Originally, this kind of fruit is basically inedible when it is just picked, just like taro, it will numb the throat. The children in the village often pick it up and leave it for a few days before they can eat it. But the little squirrel broke back this branch is different, the vine has withered, and it seems that it was broken a few days ago.

"Can you eat it?" Ye Xiaoshuang asked.

Old man Li nodded: "No one knows how to eat fruits better than them, and they must choose the best." You can see that the peel is a little wrinkled, which means that it is ready to eat, and it is quite good to remove the skin and eat one or two. But eating too much is the same as eating plums, and your teeth may not be able to eat at that time. ”

Chu Jiaxiong stretched out his hand and picked one, just about to peel and eat one. At this time, the little squirrel snatched the fox peach and put it back into Chu Jiaqiang's hands.

Everyone laughed again, this little guy really holds a grudge!

"If you don't eat, you won't eat, who is rare?" Chu Jiaxiong felt that this little squirrel always swept his face.

Chu Jiaqiang smiled helplessly, calmed the little squirrel for a while, and then divided the fruit into two for each person.

The hills in front are a bit steep, with few tall trees on them, all bushes, and a lot of wild fruit. Most of them are ripe, and some of them are not ripe until winter, which is relatively late, but it is very hot, after all, there is less fruit at that time, and some small birds and other animals are not so picky to eat.

Early autumn is the time when the fruits are ripe. The fruit is green and yellow, yellow and red, red and purple. The fruit is abundant, like a miniature version of the wine glass, there is a core in the fruit, very much like a worm, the core is multi-seeded, and the taste is unusually sweet. It is best eaten when it is ripe for purple, it quenches thirst and has a sweet aftertaste, and the tongue and teeth will also be dyed purple and black.

Mountain twist is commonly known, the real scientific name is myrtle, the most common wild fruit in the south. Unlike other fruit trees, they generally bloom, bear fruit, and ripen at the same time. When opening huā, it is also very impressive, their huā color is not fixed, there are various colors, gorgeous and colorful, graceful and colorful!

Everyone ate a lot along the way, and their lips were a little purple-black.

"Can you eat that fruit in front of you?" Ye Xiaoshuang pointed to a tree in front of him, which was full of blood-red fruits that resembled bayberry.

"Hmmm! If you can eat it, if you can eat it, I'll pick some for you. Chu Jiaxiong hurriedly said. Chu Jiaqiang, Old Man Li and others all swallowed their saliva.

These words spewed out of Chu Jiaxiong's mouth, and Ye Xiaoshuang became vigilant, this guy has never had good intentions towards himself, he said that he could eat it, but it was basically impossible to eat it. And there is nothing to be done, and it is either a traitor or a thief! It certainly won't be a good thing.

"Ahem! You kid! Chu Jiaqiang scolded with a smile, then turned to Ye Xiaoshuang, shook his head and said, "If you say that it can be eaten, it can indeed be eaten, but it is not delicious." That's Wild Plum, you should have heard of it, right? It's very sour, it's not clear how sour it is, only those who have actually tasted it will know how good they are. Otherwise, there will be no allusion to "Wangmei stop drinking". ”

Even the fifth uncle felt a little soft in his teeth, which showed how powerful that thing was.

"Is it that powerful?" Miao Huo has not tasted it and does not believe it, curiosity will always kill people. He tiptoed one and put it in his mouth to bite it. Everyone saw his mouth twitch violently,

Then he spit out, and a mouthful of sour saliva came up: "Bah, bah! Damn! How could there be such a sour thing? ”

With the experience of Miao Huo, no one dared to touch the wild plum again.

didn't go far, Ye Xiaoshuang exclaimed again: "What a small persimmon, it should be able to be eaten, right?" ”

Old man Li found that those wild persimmons, which were only the size of his thumb, had turned yellow, so he knew that they were ripe, nodded and said, "It's okay, although the taste is very good, half of it is the kernel, and the flesh is very small, so it is troublesome to eat." ”

Ye Xiaoshuang doesn't care about the back, as long as she can eat it, let her brother climb the tree, press down the branches, and she will stand on the ground to pick them. Her bag now contained a lot of wild fruits, at least six varieties.
