Liang Chuan's face has not stopped in the past two days, and later even Brother Zhao followed him to fool around. Well, the third uncle's cow dung is to be saved up and sold, and then Yi Niang went a few more times, Uncle He laughed and said that he wanted to take as much as he wanted, what was in the way, Yi Niang was embarrassed to keep going to take other people's cow dung for nothing, she gave Uncle He some money and subsidized it.

The two were stung by the bees too badly, and the younger brother was okay, he was later put into the beehive and wanted to come over to see the excitement before he was stung by these fierce gods. As for Liang Chuan, in order for these bees to build a nest in the beehive, he stripped off the outer layer of mud shell of the earthen honeycomb. It's okay not to peel it, as soon as I peel it off, there are still some bees that take care of the house, and when I saw that Liang Chuan was going to demolish their home, they immediately flew out to fight for their lives, but poor Liang Chuan didn't dare to throw away the hot potato in his hand, so he could only sting his face exposed to the air next to a few bees.

The day before yesterday, just a stung needle on the eyelid, it was swollen to the shape of a human, and now there are needle eyes everywhere on the face, and after the honeycomb is put into the beehive, the army of earth bees has also arrived.

Liang Chuan put the honeycomb outside the bamboo forest, where the winter is warm and the summer is cool, there is a mountain stream not far away, the water source is sufficient, and the bamboo forest is a sea of flowers, and soon the flowering period of all kinds of trees in the forest is coming, and the nectar source is not a problem. This place Liang Chuan has also observed, and there are no ants. Ants are the sworn enemies of bees, and they are also the most hungry for honey, and when they find out, the honeycomb may become an ant nest. The bamboo forest has natural shade in the middle of the mountainside, and it is very quiet, which is the most suitable for beehives.

Poor Liang Chuan went to find a lot of hay and dead leaves to cover the beehive, if it was too conspicuous, what if it was brought home and burned as firewood. In the chaos of the army, Liang Chuan was carried to death, and was beaten by the army of earth bees, and when he came back, his face was almost disfigured.

After Liang Chuan arrived home, his eyes could barely be opened, and only a glimmer of light could come in through his eyes, and the others were completely blocked by the swollen bag. Liang Chuan also asked Yi Niang: "My face is okay." Angry that Yi Niang didn't know whether to cry or laugh, Liang Chuan's face was full of bags, there was no complete place, and his lips were swollen like sausages, and Yi Niang couldn't wait to beat him.

The two of them lay in the yard, and every half an hour, Yi Niang had to take fresh cow dung to change the 'medicine' for them. This time it's really ruthless, it's okay to recruit a brother, if Liang Chuan wants to rely on his King Kong body, he almost went to see Hades.

Not only the earth bees, Liang Chuan found that even the mosquitoes were very scary last night. Damn, people sitting in the yard to heal their injuries were already attracting mosquitoes, and after smearing cow dung on their brains, these mosquitoes and feces shell mantis were like discovering cakes, and they frantically came to Liangchuan for trouble, this is the spring equinox, what to do when it comes to the summer solstice, and they have not been moved away by mosquitoes.

He Baozheng didn't think much of it was too much to see the excitement, but he didn't expect Liang Chuan to suffer a loss, as soon as he heard that he had been stung by a bee and his face was ruined, he immediately came to visit him diligently, and some didn't say anything to his face, Liang Chuan wiped his face with cow dung and didn't want to make a big deal about it.

Liang Chuan doesn't want his troubles to be used as a joke by the villagers after dinner, if he wants to talk about it, he can only talk about his glorious deeds, and let history bury the blood and tears behind them.

If you don't talk about this, you have to direct He Baozheng's attention in other directions.

"He Baozheng, are there a lot of mosquitoes in our summer?" Liang Chuan had a plan and suddenly had a problem.

He Baozheng replied: "You kid has lived here for many years, don't you sleep here at night, isn't that." We have a lot of grass, a lot of trees, and a lot of dew, so there are naturally more mosquitoes. ”

"Then what should you do when you sleep at night, there are so many mosquitoes, isn't it uncomfortable?"

"What else can I do if I take root in a fan of mosquitoes, there are mosquito nets sold in the township, but the mosquito nets made of silk are really damn expensive, and a few families can afford to use them, and the summer will pass after enduring."

"He Baozheng is now familiar with how women go to the mountains to cut bamboo, and you don't have to worry about following your ass every day, in this way, I have a new job, do you want to do it!" Liang Chuan released a bait to see if he could get the old boy to take the bait.

He Baozheng didn't want to get involved with this group of girls for a long time, every time he talked to a village woman a few more words, looked at it twice, and was seen by his mother-in-law, he would not be at peace when he went home! But Liang Chuan arranged for him to take care of this gang and he had to obey, and now he finally has a chance to be free.

"Do it, I'll do everything you arranged!" As long as you don't deal with those old women, He Baozheng said more in his heart.

"I went into the mountains a few times and found a lot of valuable things that can be used, such as the camphor tree on the mountain, the fragrant nan, and wormwood, kudzu and other things, everyone is regarded as wild grass and wild vegetables that no one wants. We have a lot of mosquitoes this summer, and I have a way to solve the problem of mosquitoes! ”

He Baozheng also knew that there were indeed a lot of things on the mountain, and there were so many that no one picked them, and these things were not valuable, and if they were valuable, they would have been taken out of the sky.

"How to deal with mosquitoes? Is it just a few things? He Baozheng knows these things, but he doesn't know what Liang Chuan wants to do, is it possible to cut these back and put them at home to repel mosquitoes, this is too naïve, the villagers don't know that these can repel mosquitoes, but the smell is too big when burned, the mosquitoes are running away, and people don't want to sleep.

The next day, Liang Chuan led He Baozheng to the mountain, and when Yi Niang saw that Liang Chuan was going to the mountain again, she pinched his ear and scolded, if you mess with those earth bees again today, you will die of pain! Liang Chuan screamed in pain, shouting that he was going to the mountains to collect medicine, not to dig up soil bees again.

Pueraria lobata is a traditional Chinese medicine, but in a year of flood and drought, when the grain harvest is out of harvest, or when there is no food, this traditional Chinese medicine becomes a life-saving food and vegetable for everyone. The wild kudzu root is tender and nutritious, but because it is not a daily dish, it is more like a wild vegetable.

Liang Chuan looked a little distressed, people are cheap, the wild vegetables and shrimp that I used to eat to vomit were used to feed the pigs, and now I have to go to the supermarket to grab a hundred yuan. It's the same with this kudzu, people don't eat it now, but people in later generations use it as a health care product, and the taste is a bit similar to ginseng.

Liang Chuan remembered that in the days when he was in bed, Yi Niang seemed to add kudzu to the millet porridge she cooked, which had the nickname of thousand-year-old ginseng. Thank you for this little thing for surviving me through the most difficult time.

Kudzu grows on hillsides, in roadside grass, and in some of the more shady and humid areas. The wild kudzu root that is shoeed out is like a radish, but the surface is brown, with some wrinkles distributed, and some wild kudzu is large, which can reach hundreds of catties. Liang Chuan and He Baozheng didn't get so much, so they dug up a dozen catties, and they were tired of digging too much and carrying them back, and they didn't know if the test would be successful.

After digging the kudzu root is to find the fragrant nan and camphor trees, these two kinds of trees are also a lot in the forest, the people who cut the trees in the deep mountains and old forests generally cut some branches and leaves to go back to burn firewood, the big trees to cut are still not much, it is not easy to cut and not easy to carry back.

Xiang Zhangliang Chuan didn't dare to fight the idea of the old tree at the entrance of the ancestral hall, and He Baozheng would not agree with Liang Chuan to start, that tree has become a feng shui tree, and its significance is greater than its tree value.

And this kind of tree is more interesting, Nanmu wood and branches and leaves contain aromatic oil, distillation can obtain Nanmu oil, is a high-grade spice, the taste can also be refreshing. Nanmu is a precious wood since ancient times, there is a kind of golden silk Nanmu, which is the favorite of the emperor's family when he is an adult, and the common people also like this kind of wood to make longevity materials. The coffin of golden silk nanmu can be claimed to be incorruptible for thousands of years, and the wood grain is like golden silk water waves, which is quite gorgeous and highly respected by dignitaries.

Xiangnan is the value of medicine is relatively large, its texture is not as good as Jinsi Nan, some points are purple and black, the taste is fragrant, refreshing and refreshing, and has a certain turbidity effect.

These two kinds of powder are also the main raw materials of mosquito coils, and with a taste of wormwood, mosquitoes can basically be eliminated.

Finally, I have to cut some more pine resin, which contains rosin, Liang Chuan can't refine rosin, but it's easier to get it. The mountains are full of old pine trees, cut a few openings with a firewood knife, hang a few small bowls on them, Liang Chuan and He Baozheng can pick up many bowls after half a day's work of cutting Xiangnan and camphor.

There is also a medicine in the mountains, Atractylodes. In later generations, there are not many atractylodes in their own place, because of excessive logging, most of them need to be artificially reproduced, but this era is different, even if it is a traditional Chinese medicine picker, they also know the truth of an eleventh tax, they will not exhaust the fish, they will leave a little to save the lives of others, and there are many herbs on the mountain.

After these things have been picked enough, two people go down the mountain to pick wormwood, wormwood is the same as kudzu, in fact, it is a good thing, but people generally do not realize the value of these herbs, and they can be picked at random on the roadside, and they are not very rare herbs.

After getting enough raw materials, the next thing is the process of making mosquito coils, He Baozheng didn't know what Liang Chuan was going to do, but he knew that Liang Chuan came prepared, and his eyes kept watching, for fear that Liang Chuan would miss something, so he turned around and learned half a bucket of water by himself.

In spring, the mountains are full of life, and wild sparrows and turtledoves begin to haunt everywhere. Wild peach tree snake pickled lychee fruit hung all over the branches, there are some wild strawberries, the tree head is faintly hung with some bayberry, the season has not yet arrived, and in a few days it will slowly be dyed with a layer of flame, soak some salt and eat it until the mouth is sour and sweet.

Liang Chuan couldn't walk when he saw the wild peach legs, he liked a few things, one was a hard peach, the other was a clam, pick some peaches and go back to soak in some salt water, remove the hair, and eat it until it is crisp and sweet in the mouth. Yang Xiu Li Erhua girls love to eat this kind of small snack the most, bring some back to them.

He also stopped by to see the beehive that had been put yesterday, and the bees flew in and out, so busy that he seemed to have made this place his home.
