Chapter 120: Finding Good Things

How dangerous it is to pick fruit like this.

The most important thing is that they don't know what kind of fruit it is.

However, their captain is well-informed, and he knows much more types of fruit trees than them, so he may not know, so he should wait for the captain to recognize him.

Although wild fruits that people don't know are mostly inedible.

But this orchard is the largest orchard they have seen since the establishment of their hunting team, and everyone naturally does not expect it.

The hunting team was divided into two teams before, with Yi Xueqing leading the team in front and Xue Langjing in the back.

They have to wait for Xue Langjing to come over, and it will take a while.

The young team members became curious, and when they saw some fruits falling on the ground, they wanted to pick them up and study them, but they were immediately stopped by Yi Xueqing.

Not all fruits are non-toxic, especially in this deep mountain and wild forest, there are really a lot of poisonous fruits, some of which are so toxic that they can't even be touched.

However, this team member also has a flexible brain, so he immediately thought that although her hands can't be touched, she has tools, and it's okay to touch them with tools a few times!

Thinking so, she untied the machete on her body, squatted down with the knife in both hands, and found a fruit and poked it with the tip of the knife.

After a few pokes, the outer layer of pu was cut, and it was found that the fruit inside was extremely hard.

When she peeled off all the layers of pu, she found that it was a longan-sized kernel.

After that, he continued to chop with his machete at the core.

Wang Ya'er, who had been watching her toss the fruit from the side, felt a little familiar when she saw the exposed core, and when she saw the appearance of the fruit core being split, she let out an exclamation.

"Na, this, this is a pecan, this thing is so expensive, let's send it, send it", although the harvest belongs to the captain, but the harvest is big, and the reward for them will not be.

"yes, this is really a hickory? Let me see. ”

"Really, looking at it this way, this round and slippery one really looks like it."

As soon as they heard that it was a hickory, the team members who knew its value gathered around and squatted down to observe.

"Really, really, I've eaten it, and it looks like this, have you ever eaten walnuts? It's a miniature walnut..."

Wang Ya'er, who was excited, nodded and assured, this is a pecan.

Her family once came to a wealthy relative in a county town and sent a bun of pecans to their family, and she secretly took one and peeled it and ate it, and the shape of it was almost the same as that in this round core.

Hearing her assurance, the other team members also studied it carefully, although they had never eaten pecans, walnuts were much cheaper than it, and they still knew what they looked like.

Of course, compare it to walnuts.

It turned out that it really was.

No matter what they thought, Wang Ya'er decided that it was a hickory, and even went to pick up another one and peeled it off with a machete.

The action was so fast that Yi Xueqing, who was also studying 'hickory', had no time to stop it.

Fortunately, the fruit really doesn't seem to be poisonous.

In this way, everyone will also peel the fruit together.

Others still only dig out the kernels and take them in their hands to see, but Wang Ya'er even puts them in his mouth and chews them after peeling out the kernels.

After chewing two bites, I saw everyone looking at me with expectant eyes.

Wang Ya'er enjoyed being the center of attention like this, which made her feel more face, so she continued to chew a few more times to taste the taste.

It's just that after eating, he frowned again, "The taste seems to be a little similar, but why is it so astringent, I remember that the taste is obviously very good, is it because the green pecans are so astringent, it's really strange, why don't you taste it?" ”

Just as everyone was discussing, Xue Langjing also came over with the team.

As soon as I came over, I saw everyone squatting on the ground, chewing something in their mouths, and discussing something with a serious face.

Liu Shanfu, who came with Xue Langjing, couldn't help but ask them, "What are you doing?" ”

"Oh, we're debating if it's a hickory, it's a hickory, but it tastes a little wrong."

Some of the team members explained to them.

After explaining, he thought that the captain must know more about these fruits than they did, so he naturally asked her.

"Captain, captain, do you know what a pecan looks like?"

"Pecans?"

"Yes."

"I haven't seen it in reality, I only know it's expensive, but I seem to have seen it on the plant encyclopedia, but I can't remember it clearly, I want to think about it."

I saw Xue Langjing walking towards them while thinking.

After that, I also squatted down to observe their 'hickory'.

After looking at it for a while, he patted his head.

"Ah, I remember, the hickory tree is quite tall."

She looked up at the woods in front of her, and it seemed to be.

Then, he lowered his head and picked up a fruit and examined it carefully.

After looking at it a few times, he looked carefully at the fruit that had been split.

"It looks like it's a hickory."

After confirming this good thing, she looked up at the fruit grove in front of her, her heart was a little surging, and she couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "Tsk, there are so many hickory trees, if we get all the fruits back, it will be worth some of our hunting results!" ”

"But, captain, this taste seems to be a little different, it's very different from what we've eaten, although it's mixed with a lot of seasonings, but it's too astringent", Wang Ya'er couldn't help but remind her.

"Really?"

"Yes, Captain, you can eat."

Wang Ya'er handed her the peeled kernel in her hand.

Xue Langjing took it and put it in his mouth and chewed it.

The astringency was really strong.

When she was also puzzled, she happened to see that Wang Ya'er's hands were a little black, which seemed to be dyed black by something.

This reminded her of something again, so she asked Wang Ya'er, "Ya'er, why are your hands so black, are they dyed by this fruit?" ”

Hearing her ask, Wang Ya'er also realized that her hands were indeed a little black, "It seems that yes, that's it after peeling the fruit." ”

"That's right, in the book, the walnut flesh itself is not so astringent, but the layer on the outside of it is somewhat toxic, the taste is particularly astringent, and its juice will also dye your hands black, maybe when you peel it, you will dye this juice on the kernels, or let's peel it again."

In this way, it will be eight or nine and ten.

Then everyone peeled the fruit one after another, and this time they were naturally very careful, trying not to stain the juice on the outer layer of the fruit.

After peeling it, they were all handed to Wang Ya'er to eat.

After eating several in a row, the astringency was a lot lighter, which also made her think that this was a pecan.

I really found something good, and everyone was naturally happy.

But after the joy, everyone made trouble again.

The fruit is good, but how do they pick it back?

If it really looks like a chestnut, if you take a bamboo pole and beat it, it will inevitably attract wild beasts.

If there are few wild beasts, they can indeed use them as prey, and they can gain a lot more.

But when the prey is killed, it will bleed, and the smell of blood will attract other beasts.

Therefore, hunters will never stay in one place all the time after hitting their prey.

Because the smell of blood is the best attractant to attract prey.

And to pick these pecans, they not only have to stay here for a long time, but also make a lot of noise for a long time, which will inevitably attract prey to come over.

The two factors are superimposed, and when the time comes, it will not be them hunting, but besieged by wild beasts.
