Chapter 25: Tasting
Can mushroom plants be considered plants?
Scientists define it differently. [Ran^Text^Library] []()
However, today's classification seems to classify all kinds of mushrooms as a type of fungus.
But no matter what kind of fungus it is, the root system is not too developed.
Teacher Chen walked to Wu Yun's side, looking at the messy roots that almost covered the bottom of the mushroom stalk, and his brows couldn't help but lock.
"Well, it's not a mushroom, is it?"
"Both the size and the rhizome."
"I'll have to let Xu Yan take a look later, what should he be able to see?"
Hearing this, Wu Yun pursed his lips slightly.
His eyes moved slightly, he nodded, and stood up from the ground.
"Old Chen."
"Xiao Huo and I will go back first and bring Xu Yan over."
"Nope."
Teacher Chen shook his head and said affirmatively, "It's just the two of you, it's too dangerous." ”
Teacher Chen turned his head to look at Luo Qi, who was standing in front of a giant mushroom not far away.
"If you want to go back, let's go back together."
That mushroom is white all over, the diameter of the crown is nearly two meters, and the height is about two meters seven or eight.
Luo Qi stood under the crown cover, and Li Yuangang stood beside him.
Luo Qi put her hands behind her back and looked up at the white folds on the bottom of the crown, densely arranged together.
He suddenly let out a long sigh, turned his head with a sigh on his face, and looked at the fat man Li beside him.
"How's it taste?"
Fat Li's face was swollen to the limit, and his thick lips were constantly opening and closing.
In his hands, he was holding a large handful of silver-white roots.
He nodded towards Luo Qi, and said intermittently, "Okay...... Good...... Good ......"
Li Yuangang's face was covered with black ash, and Luo Qi couldn't see Li Yuangang's face that began to turn purple, but he could observe the panicked look in Li Fatman's eyes.
Luo Qi was very understanding, stretched out his hand, and gently patted Li Yuangang's back.
"Goo~!"
Li Yuangang's throat kept moving up and down, trying to swallow the chewed roots that filled his mouth cavity and were chewed into his stomach.
"Good...... Good...... It's like a stewed yam. ”
Fat Li gasped heavily, and his eyes showed ecstasy.
He picked up a large handful of silver roots, quickly threw them into his mouth, and chewed them heavily.
Hearing this, the corners of Luo Qi's mouth turned up slightly.
He quickly crouched down, his face full of longing and reaching out his right hand to the tangled roots that covered the end of the mushroom stalk and exposed to the air.
"Stop!"
When Teacher Chen angrily pointed at the two people standing next to the white giant mushroom and reprimanded him loudly, Luo Qi had already pulled a handful from the rhizome like a messy rope.
Brown juice immediately gushed out from the gaps in all the slender rhizomes that Luo Qi had broken.
The sap covers the broken part of the rhizome like a hovering droplet.
A transparent film that precipitates from the surface of the water droplets and encloses the broken part of the rhizome.
Luo Qi stood up, didn't care about the reprimand in his ears, and directly opened his mouth and sent a large handful of silver roots into his mouth.
Teacher Chen quickly rushed to Luo Qi's side at the speed of breaking the Olympic record, and grabbed Luo Qi's right hand and arm that was holding the silver root and was about to send it to his mouth.
"Don't eat yet!"
Hearing this, Luo Qi turned his head and looked at Lecturer Chen with a puzzled expression.
"Want to eat?"
"Here you go."
Luo Qi held a large number of silver roots in his right hand and handed them to Lecturer Chen.
"The fat man tried it, yam-flavored."
Lecturer Chen hurriedly shook his head and persuaded loudly: "Li Yuangang, don't eat it, spit it out quickly!" ”
Hearing this, Fat Li immediately sped up his chewing speed, and swallowed the contents of his mouth into his stomach in a few clicks.
"Spit on!"
"The young master is hungry, his chest is pressed against his back!"
"I finally got something to eat, but you still told me to throw up!?"
"I'm spitting on your sister!"
Li Fatzi didn't care about respecting teachers at this time, he was completely a ruffian hooligan, glaring at Teacher Chen with a pair of round eyes.
Teacher Chen was not angry at all, but just looked at Li Yuangang with concern.
"Li Yuangang, don't be so reckless in what you do."
"Although these plants look like mushrooms, they are very different from the mushrooms we have seen before, both in terms of size and shape!"
"Rash consumption, in case there are any toxicity or side effects, we don't have enough sophisticated medical equipment now!"
"Once poisoned, the gods can't save you!"
Hearing this, Li Yuangang frowned slightly, and his fat face gradually revealed shame and panic.
He was silent for a while, and then said softly, "I've eaten so much that it's too late to vomit." ”
"Teacher Chen, what do you say should I do?"
Hearing this, Teacher Chen was silent for a while.
He shook his head, faced Li Yuangang, and said solemnly: "Don't worry." ”
"The teacher didn't dare to say anything else."
"But if you want to vomit, the teacher has experience."
Teacher Chen walked up to Li Fatzi, opened his mouth in front of Li Yuangang, raised his right hand and pointed at the squirming Adam's apple on his neck with his right index finger.
"Put your finger in your throat and slash at the place."
"Generally speaking, as long as it is not digested by gastric juice, as long as it is still in the stomach, it can be spit out."
Hearing this, Li Fatzi and Luo Qi were silent.
Luo Qi quickly threw all the rhizomes in his hand to the ground like throwing hot potatoes.
Fat Li lowered his head and looked at his right hand, which was covered with black ash.
His frightened face darkened even more, and he swallowed the saliva in his mouth with difficulty.
"Forget it."
"I'd rather die of poison."
That night, all the survivors gathered in the ruins of the campus were taken to the place where the mushrooms were grown.
During the day, Luo Qi and the others wandered around the periphery of the giant mushroom forest, but they did not go deep into the giant mushroom forest.
Zhang Chunjun was very cautious to let everyone stay on the periphery of the giant mushroom forest.
As night approached, everyone cooperated, collected firewood, and began to raise the fire.
Xu Yan, who was lost and depressed, was taken by Lecturer Chen to a giant mushroom, accompanied by Zhang Chunjun and Wu Jin, as well as Luo Qi and Li Fatzi, who were cheeky and acted as followers, who followed behind the four of them.
Xu Yan's eyes widened, his eyes were bloodshot, and his gaze was still numb.
He hadn't recovered from his grief yet, but his sanity had mostly returned to normal.
He sat on the ground, looking down at the silver-white roots that buried the end of the mushroom stalk by the light of the sky, which was fading because of the approaching night.
He was silent for a few moments before he raised his right hand and reached for the messy roots.
He pulled a piece of whisker down, put it under his nose, and sniffed it carefully.
"Hmm...... There is no pungent taste. ”
"But there's a faint, herbal smell."
Xu Yan's eyes flashed slightly, and the wings of his nose moved lightly.
He removed the silver tendrils from under his nose and closed his eyes.
He closed his eyes, was silent for five minutes, and added, "No feeling of blockage, no nausea or dizziness. ”
