The cistanche found by Cai Hongming was very large and long, digging a meter deep, and he still hadn't seen the roots.

Liu Chong and Ji Dong also found a bush of cistanche next to him and dug it up, and after a while, the two of them dug out a forty or fifty centimeter long and palm-sized cistanche.

As soon as he dug out the cistanche, Liu Chong happily picked it up and ran around to show off. Cai Hongming didn't know what to say, what is there to show off about this thing?

"Adong, last time I asked you to find a few comrades-in-arms to come over to help, did you find it, why is there no news until now?" While digging, Cai Hongming asked Ji Dong.

The farm is getting bigger and bigger, raising livestock, planting crops, and doing more and more work, and a few of them can't take care of it at all. It's not that he didn't want to find someone in the town, but few young people are willing to endure hardships nowadays, let alone come to this side of the desert. It's still good to be a soldier, can endure hardships, knows discipline and obedience, and has a stupid strength. Not only can you do your job, but you can also act as a security guard by the way, which saves you more trouble with one stone.

Of course, he can only think about this kind of thought in his heart, and if he says it, he will definitely be scolded to death.

Ji Dong glanced at him and said, "You think it's easy to find people!" Now that the wages are high, everyone goes to the big city to work, there is money to earn and play, who rarely comes to our place where birds don't to raise pigs and grow vegetables? ”

"Why are you so stupid, what birds don't. Didn't you tell them about the benefits of our side, not only can you ride an ostrich to run in the desert, but you can also ride a yak to play together, and the scenery is good, in addition to working. You can do whatever you want at other times, the salary is still high, and there are a lot of benefits, what is not uncommon? ”

"I've been here for so long, and I still don't know what benefits we have here?"

"How can there be no benefits? I didn't take you hunting yesterday. Today, I also took you to ride an ostrich to dig Cistanche, isn't this all a benefit? Look at Liu Chong, he was as thin as a monkey when he came, and now he has become so fat, this is not a benefit. Here, the air is good. Beautiful view. The food is delicious, the salary is high, and you can chat and play games online in your free time, what's not to be satisfied with? ”

Ji Dong heard Cai Hongming say this. It really feels like that.

There is food, drink and money to be earned here. It's really better than working in the city and breathing the messy air. Being trained like a grandson, eating miscellaneous poisonous food is much better, it seems that I have to talk to my comrades when I go back. Try to get more people over.

He was a little stupid by Cai Hongming.

What he said did have a point, but he ignored the fact that it takes at least half a day to drive from here to the nearest county seat, and there are no people around, and it is even quieter at night to frighten people to death. Which young person doesn't like to be lively now, and it's so quiet all day here, which one will like it?

After Liu Chong ran around with the dug cistanche, he came back to continue digging. Although the two of them found the cistanche bush, although they were relatively short, there were many of them, about a dozen.

Seeing him come back, Cai Hongming asked, "Brother Chong, didn't you say that a comrade-in-arms was going to come over to treat his leg injury?" Why hasn't there been any news yet? Is it that Chengxian has ascended? ”

"Please, Brother Hong, can you not call me Brother Chong. I'm so fat, I was called out by you. When Liu Chong heard his title, he immediately said dissatisfied. Shi Wan'er giggled beside her.

"Fart you, I'm so lazy to sleep and don't exercise, and it's on me? You're just too lucky, if you're in the army, can you be fat like this bear? If you get up with me in the morning and exercise, I guess you'll lose weight in a few days. ”

"I also have a workout." Liu Chong said arrogantly with his fat chest.

"Getting up in the morning and twisting your butt and waist is also considered exercise? Then I get up every day to box, not exercise lame. I think otherwise, I'll get you up and exercise starting tomorrow morning. ”

"No, no, I'll do it myself." Liu Zhong hurriedly waved his hand and said, he slept well in the morning, who was impatient. He finally got out of the fire pit of the army that was about to train the dead, and he didn't want to jump again.

"It was decided. Look at you, you are all fat like this, how can you do it without exercise, which girl will be willing to marry you in the future? ”

Liu Chong heard him say this, in order to marry a beautiful and lovely wife in the future, he had to follow his advice, and said goodbye to the hot quilt in the morning.

"By the way, you haven't said anything about your comrade-in-arms?"

"People have girlfriends, who wants to come over? But he called me yesterday and said he was coming tomorrow and you were going to pick it up. ”

"Why did you want to come again?"

"Blew it with his girlfriend, now the girl is not stupid, who is the reason to marry him a cripple."

What Liu Chong said is the truth, now girls are very realistic, as long as they are not crazy, it is absolutely impossible to marry a lame person. His comrade-in-arms and his girlfriend were introduced to each other, and at first the woman was not very satisfied, but after being persuaded by others, she wanted to get along for a while, but then she met a man, although he was not as rich as his comrades-in-arms, but at least he was a complete person, so he broke up with him. His comrades-in-arms only wanted to come over to relax when they were sad, and they didn't think about treating their leg injuries at all.

After retiring from the army due to injury, his comrades-in-arms did not know how many doctors he had seen, both Chinese and Western medicine, but unfortunately none of them worked, and he died of that heart.

This time, he just came to relax, and then by the way, to see if there was any hope of healing this leg. He is actually dead, but he wants to try it by luck, maybe there is a miracle? That's what a lot of people think.

The cistanche dug by Cai Hongming is indeed very long, with a diameter of about half a meter, and the length is not known. I don't know how long it is, so he called Liu Chong to come over and dig from the other side, so as not to break it when he digs Cistanche alone.

After digging for a while, I finally dug up the roots, and at this time Cistanche was nearly three meters old.

One-meter cistanche is normal, but it is rare to reach two meters, and three-meter is even more unheard of, which can be said to be a miracle.

"It's huge." Liu Chong looked at the fat cistanche in the pit in front of him and said with emotion.

Cai Hongming was also excited, he didn't expect that he was so lucky that he could dig up such a big Cistanche tree. It's a good thing, so be sure to take it back and put it to good use. He ran to the car and got a blanket spread on the car, wrapped and tied the Cistanche around it, and then called several other people to pull the Cistanche out of the pit with all their might.

It was not obvious in the pit, but when I came out and saw the huge cistanche, everyone was amazed.

I couldn't go back at noon, so they ate here.

The group took the meat and fish from the car, grilled them on the grill, and used the lamb bones to cook the freshly dug cistanche, after cooking, the thick bone broth with the taste of fresh cistanche was delicious.

After eating, they dug for a while before they reluctantly packed up their things and walked back.

When they came, they tied the ostrich blindfolded to the side of the car.

Ostriches will move around and even run around if their eyes are open. But if you put something over your eyes, it will stand there stupidly and not move. When Cai Hongming and the others took off the cover on the ostrich's eyes, the ostrich looked around curiously, and when the rope was untied, they flapped their wings and wanted to run.

Cai Hongming and the others hurriedly rode on the backs of the ostriches, so as not to let them run away.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they rode on, these guys rushed forward in a swarm, as if they knew the path, and the road ran wildly.

The cistanche dug up from the Suosuo forest was all on Liu Chong's muscle car, and he drove the car closely behind.

When I returned, it was as silent as when I came, and I heard only the sound of ostriches running. The running ostrich imprinted footprints on the sand, which were blown by the wind and re-smoothed as if they had never appeared. Only the long yellow sand was left, lying there quietly, telling the ancient feelings. (To be continued......)
