Chapter Eighty-Nine: Screams in the Forest of Nature
Twilight is dark. The beauties in the hulls who had worked all day had returned to the hollows of the trees, or dinner, or small gatherings, and some people were already lying in bed and ready to rest. Above the sacred tree, serene lights shine through the hollows of large and small trees.
A figure was walking quickly, and suddenly a voice came from the face: "Lulu, did you come back so late?"
"Ahh β
The Discipline Elder glanced at the frightened Lulu in front of him, his brow furrowed slightly, but in the end he just nodded and left. Lulu let out a long breath and continued her way up.
Heath had no low status in the natural forest, so she lived under the elders. Lulu arrives with ease and knocks on the door of Heath's house.
"Lulu?" Heath said suspiciously, welcoming the man into the house, "is there something wrong?"
"Sister Heath, didn't you tell us to continue to pay attention to Gangu Yu's movements? Today, those strange vegetables in his yard seem to be ripe, so I secretly took some of them. Lulu whispered.
Heath was also slightly startled when she heard this, and quickly looked around inside and outside her tree hole, and then lowered her voice and asked, "You haven't been discovered, have you?"
"No, I secretly watched for a long time before I started. Plus there is twilight concealment, and absolutely no one notices. Lulu said confidently, "When I picked these things, I also chose the location, and if I didn't look closely, I wouldn't have noticed that someone had come to steal them." In addition, they also collected some vegetables themselves today, and the traces of my stealing were mixed in them, even if they saw them, they couldn't tell them at all, and they probably thought they picked them themselves!"
"That's fine. Heath groaned for a while, then nodded, "Where's the thing, take it out and I'll take a look?"
Lulu nodded, took some leaf fruits from the storage ring, and placed them on the table. Heath glanced at it and couldn't help asking, "What are these things, do you know them?"
Lulu shook her head awkwardly: "Except for this one named peppercorn, we already know, but we don't know anything else." When Gan Guyu introduced Miss Yimo, I was so far away that I didn't see it clearly, let alone listen to it. β
Heath pursed her lips, but finally nodded and said, "Well, it's right to be careful." That guy has a bad stomach, and we can't let him grab our handle anymore. β
"Sister Heath, you're right. Lulu hurriedly chimed in.
Heath nodded, picked up a piece of green onion that Lulu pinched, first sniffed it, then pinched a small piece and put it in her mouth and chewed it, and after a while said, "It smells fresh, it's not a big deal to eat, it's not delicious!"
"It's strange that the things that Gan Guyu grows are delicious. Lulu chimed in, temporarily losing her memory of the fact that she had eaten three boiled sweet potatoes in one go.
But when Heath heard this, she was deeply impressed: "It makes sense! Hmm...... This leaf doesn't seem to be the same as the one before?"
When Lulu heard this, she looked up at the garlic sprouts that Heath had just picked up, and then picked up another green onion and compared it, and then exclaimed, "It's different! The leaf in your hand is sheet-shaped, and mine is hollow-column. β
Heath nodded, pulled another piece of garlic sprout and put it in her mouth, chewed it carefully for a while before saying, "The taste of this leaf is a little more rushing, but it seems to be a little more acceptable...... But I bet that cooking soup with this is definitely not as delicious as green vegetables, and I don't know why Gangu Yuzhong is doing this?"
"Who knows, what he grows is not strange, it is too normal for it to be untasty. Lulu said maliciously.
β...... That's right, too. Heath hesitated, still thinking that Lulu's words were more to her taste.
And the next moment, Lulu frowned and spit out the ginger leaves in her mouth: "Phew, bah, what a taste, it's a little spicy! Who eats such a dish?"
If Gangu Rain is present, he will definitely laugh. Who told you that you were eating ginger leaves? Ginger is in the underground soil! But eating more ginger leaves is also good for you, regulating menstruation and blood, and nourishing skin care!
Poor Lulu stole all the stems, leaves, and fruits from the aboveground parts, like old ginger and garlic cloves, all of which she ignored.
"Well, you can try this, it tastes okay. Heath handed Lulu a few leeks.
Lulu took it and her eyes lit up: "Hey, this one tastes pretty good!Well, this one looks like the previous two, if it weren't for the different tastes, it would be really easy to get confused." As she spoke, she pointed to the onions and garlic sprouts.
Heath nodded approvingly. However, because the taste was not bad, the two of them ate a little more leek, and the result was ......
"Hiccupβ"
"Lulu, you're already big enough in your mouth, and you're still hiccups?
"Ah, Sister Heath, sorry, sorry, I-okay, I'll shut up, I'll shut up...... Sister Heath, in fact, your tone is ......."
"What kind of is this abominable Gangu rain!" muttered Heath in exasperation, picking up a sprig of cumin and muttering impatiently to herself, "What is this? Is its fruit these grains of wheat?"
After much hesitation, she simply handed the cumin to Lulu and ordered, "You try this again!"
Lulu was a little timid, but finally took the cumin and carefully sniffed it first: "It still smells good, but I don't know how ...... it tastes."
As she spoke, she tore off a little fennel leaf and ate it, then tasted the fennel seeds, which were still green, and finally said, "This should be eating this silky leaf, which has a fresh fragrance." The seeds are fragrant and slightly sweet, but I think they smell better. β
Seeing that the fennel was not a big problem, Heath ignored it, and instead picked up a two-wattle stick and took a bite. Lulu thought that the green peppers were not yet ripe, so the two wattles she brought back were all red, and they looked very appetizing. It is precisely because of this that Heath is full of expectations for the taste of Erjingtiao.
Half of the two wattles in her stomach, Heath felt that her body began to heat up, and she sweated slightly: "This fruit is a little spicy! I'm not very good at eating spicy, do you want to try it?"
Lulu took the other half of Heath's remaining two wattles and took a bite of it, "Hehe, I prefer spicy food." Sister Heath, why don't you eat this small one? The small one shouldn't be as spicy as this big one, so it probably suits your taste. β
Heath thought about it, and yes, so she picked up a red and tempting Chaotian pepper on the table and ate it directly.
Then, a terrible scream came from the hollow of the tree and resounded throughout the natural forest.
