Chapter 062: Wild Vegetables and Wild Fruits, Childhood Memories
Lu Qing didn't wonder for too long, and after a while, he saw the bees flying out of the hive one by one in a row.
This posture ......
The first bee flew in front of her, turning left and right as if looking for the location of the lower mouth, Lu Qingqing suddenly picked a palm-sized leaf, put it on his hand, and stretched it out in front of the bee.
The bee flew down as if to judge, so he lowered his head and spit out the honey from the honey sac, and then this one flew away, and then the second flew up and spit out the honey in the same place.
Lu was overjoyed.
"It's so good, it's hard!" Lu was happy not only about the harvest of honey, but because the bees could understand what she meant, and they could cooperate like this, which shows that these bees are really friendly and grateful bees.
Lu Qing was glad that he didn't directly take their hives and destroy their homes.
After a long time, the leaves finally gathered a lot of amber honey, although it was not enough for Lu to take a big mouthful, but it should be able to eat a meal for Xiao Chongming Bird, and it was not easy for Lu Qingqing to say: "Okay, okay, these are enough." ”
The queen bee flew out again at this time, stopping at Lu Qingqing's hand, Lu lightly touched its head, not daring to use force, for fear of accidentally pinching it to death, and transfusing a trace of life force into its body: "Thank you for your honey!"
The queen bee was in good spirits, flapping her wings vigorously, Lu gently climbed down the tree, jumped to the ground, and sent the leaves containing honey to the little heavy bird: "Eat." ”
The little bird called twice, lowered his head to peck at the honey, took two bites and called twice happily, obviously very satisfied with the honey.
However, it didn't continue to eat, but stared at the honey little head and turned, raised its head and gently "chirped" at Lu, as if requesting, its black pupils flashed.
The eyes are very weird and scary, and people don't dare to look at them directly when they put them in the big bird, but the little bird is immature and cute, soft and harmless, but the eyes are weird, and Lu Qingqing also thinks it's very good-looking.
Her heart softened a little when she was looked at by the bird like this, but she didn't understand what it meant, so she was busy using her life force to comprehend it.
"Take it back...... Eggs eat ......"
The immature voice was not able to fully express his meaning, but Lu Qing understood it, and exclaimed: "You still take care of your cousin or cousin, okay, bring it back for you." ”
Lu gently picked up the leaves, pulled out a grass with a relatively tough stem, tied the leaves up, like a soup packet, and then tied it to the bird's paws: "Can you fly back like this?"
The bird flew, unaffected by the weight on its paws, and chirped twice and flew away.
Lu lightly felt better, and his fighting spirit was high: "Ershi, let's continue to look for it, let me tell you, the thing I'm looking for looks like this......"
So this afternoon, Lu Qingqing and Ershi walked so much that their legs were about to break and they didn't find hemp, but they explored the rift valley deeper and found a lot of edible wild vegetables and wild fruits.
Bracken, gray cabbage, found a small piece of bitter herbs on the cliff, the most surprising thing for Lu was to find a few wild garlic plants, in addition to two bushes of amla, a fully ripe purple and black sheep feces fruit.
Lu lightly took out a wooden pot from the same place, picked vegetables with Ershi and the two of them, picked the fruits of the fruits, filled a large pot, and then went back satisfied.
On the road, Lu gently followed Ershi to popularize science.
"This bracken should be picked with the most tender part, then soaked in water for a day or two to remove the astringency, and then fried with shredded meat...... Gray cabbage is also picking seedlings and young stems, and we have limited seasoning, so we eat it cold with this wild garlic...... The bitter herbs are delicious to make soup, with a slight bitter taste, but they are not unpalatable at all, and the bitter herbs are good for our body...... You can taste this sheep fruit, sweet and sour, I didn't expect to find it here, but if you eat too much, your mouth will turn purple......"
"They should arrive in the city at the latest, just let them taste this...... By the way, we'll go back and soak some soybeans in a while, and let's taste the soybeans here......"
The two of them rushed back overnight, so when they went to treat the bird's eggs the next day, Lu Qingqing's spirit was obviously a little weak.
Mother Bird couldn't help but ask her, "Haven't you slept enough?"
Lu was even more nervous after gently treating, drowsy, and shook his head: "Well, it's cold at night, I didn't sleep well." ”
Mother Bird looked at her and nodded thoughtfully: "Yes, you don't have feathers, your body is slippery, it will be cold, it doesn't matter, I'll give you my feathers when I change my moults." ”
What does it mean to be naked, is it good for people to wear clothes? Although this dress is really hard to describe.
Moulting, though?
"You're going to moult?"
"That's right, you can change it if you want to, it's better to change, by the way, you found honey for Mimi yesterday and ate it, it's delicious." ”
Lu was stunned for a moment, and then he realized who "Mimi" was, needless to say, this must also be a temporary name that changes every day.
She said, "It's a good job, but I said, do you have a fixed name, and what should I call you?"
"Ah, no, we didn't have a name until we grew up. ”
Lu was stunned, he was so big, did he still say that he hadn't grown up?
How big does the Chongming Bird really "grow"?
"But we have ranks," said Mother Bird, "and I was the last one born in a litter of siblings, and you can call me seventeen, but you can also call me big, and I think that's better." ”
No...... I don't think it sounds silly.
"Then I'll call you seventeen, then ......" Lu gently glanced at the bird father who was lying there incubating eggs, closing his eyes for a long time and not moving.
"He's fifth, you call him the fifth, that's what my sister calls him. ”
"Old Five, how disrespectful...... I'll call him Mr. Five. Lu lightly had an idea, President Feng, then call it the fifth president, "My name is Qinglu, you can call me Lu or lightly." You also ate the honey?"
Seventeen said embarrassedly: "I ate a little bit, it's so fragrant." ”
Seventeen couldn't help but pour bitter water as he spoke.
Chongming bird likes vegetarian food, and likes to eat sweet things, especially nectar, honey and other things, but unfortunately this place is poor, and it is winter, they can't find enough honey, there is such a honeycomb in this crack, that bit of honey source is not enough to feed the bees themselves, can Chongming bird grab something to eat with so many bees? The family had to give up honey and go to eat old, hard and fishy meat, fortunately, there are many green melons in the rift, which can relieve their hunger.
