Chapter 14 Fire-roasted sweet potatoes
Jiang Luo stared at Chen Xianyue vigilantly, she had a bad premonition, and when she saw Chen Xianyue's eyes with tears, that feeling was even stronger.
"Little lady."
Chen Xianyue squatted down and reluctantly pulled a little face, "Xiao Niang knows that Luo'er has the ability, but ......" She looked around and said in a low voice, "Now that so many eyes are staring, if Luo'er takes out food out of thin air, she will definitely be calculated by the bad guys." ”
Jiang Luo nodded obediently.
"Good guys." She stretched out her hand to smooth Jiang Luo's knotted hair, "Little Niang has a way to keep Luo'er and her brothers and sisters from starving." ”
Jiang Luo's afterglow fell on the dry vines on the opposite side of the riverbank, seeming to ...... It's some kind of potato.
It was really not easy for her to go all the way, although the things in this place were highly similar to the earth, but there was also a thousandth, one percent difference, if it weren't for the honeysuckle's ability to recognize things, to help her identify, she would have been confused.
"Honeysuckle identifies vines on the other side of the river." She manipulates the honeysuckle system with consciousness.
Honeysuckle scanned it, the data was uploaded to the processing center, and a moment later, Honeysuckle's voice sounded in her head, and a hologram of the void appeared in front of her eyes.
The image is a comparison of two pictures.
"Master, the vines on the other side of the river belong to annual herbaceous plants."
"That's right, there is fruit in the ground, it's non-toxic and edible."
It seems that there is no end to the sky.
Jiang Luo's eyes lit up, and he blinked and said to Chen Xianyue, "Little lady, did you also find that those dead grasses on the other side of the river have borne fruit?" ”
Chen Xianyue was confused, "What fruit?" ”
Jiang Luo led her to the other side of the river, kicked the rhizome of the vine with his foot, and sure enough, the fruit with dark red skin was buried in the soil.
Chen Xianyue was overjoyed and hurriedly reached out to dig. The soil on the riverbank was still soft, and she quickly dug up four or five palm-sized fruits.
Their actions were noticed by Jiang Zhuangci, "Madam, go and see what Luo'er is doing?" ”
Old Madam Jiang walked quickly to the other side with Jiang Liu, and Jiang Cheng also followed.
Seeing that Chen Xianyue had dug out so many things from under the soil, Jiang Liu's couldn't help but dig together.
Mrs. Jiang is old and quite knowledgeable, "Isn't this a red pimple, this thing can't be eaten." ”
"Grandmother, why can't you eat this thing?" Jiang Luo asked innocently.
Old Madam Jiang pulled her over and helped her wipe the dust on her face, "This thing is poisonous and can't be eaten." ”
When Chen Xianyue heard the old lady's words, the movements in her hands stagnated, and Jiang Liushi spat at the foam and threw the fruit that had just been dug out in her hand far away.
"This bad thing, you can't eat it!"
"But...... Grandmother ......" Jiang Luo's heart drifted by ten thousand languages, but he could only look at those fruits innocently, "I'm so hungry." ”
"I can't eat when I'm hungry, I heard that some people were so hungry that they ate this and died." Old Madam Jiang patiently comforted her.
Since almost dying of thirst this time, Mrs. Jiang's temperament has changed a lot.
"Brother!" Jiang Luo looked at Jiang Cheng pitifully.
"Sister."
"I want to eat this." She kicked the sweet potato.
"I can't eat it."
Old Madam Jiang spoke bitterly.
Jiang Cheng listened to her wishes, took out the fire fold and lit a pile of firewood, and threw all the sweet potatoes in the fire.
Zhou Yan and the others also followed to the other side of the river, and a group of people discussed endlessly around the sweet potatoes in the fire.
Xu An was the most radical, "What is poisonous and not poisonous, the northwest wind is not poisonous, can people survive by drinking the wind?" ”
"So you'll try this thing first?" Zhou Yan retorted to him.
"Taste it! But you are cowardly and afraid of death! ”
Xu An raised his not very dexterous arm and pulled a sweet potato out of the fire with a wooden stick.
After being burned by the fire, the sweet potato turns black and has a faint sweet smell.
He changed his hot left hand to his right hand, and couldn't wait to peel off the burned blackened surface and bite it hard.
Jiang Luo couldn't help but laugh, isn't it just eating a roasted sweet potato, but he has a sad expression that the strong man is gone and will never return.
The entrance was sweet and soft, Xu An took another big bite, it was really delicious, I was hungry for three days, and I could be regarded as having food in my stomach.
Vomit! His expression suddenly became hideous, and everyone was startled.
He patted his chest and jumped twice on the spot, tears falling out.
Old Madam Jiang clasped her hands together, "God, sins and sins." ”
Fortunately, she insisted on not letting Luo'er eat, otherwise Luo'er would have died.
"Water...... Water ......" Xu An pointed to the water in the deep pit.
Zhou Yan hurriedly went to fetch a bowl of water and handed it to him, he raised his head and drank it all, his hideous expression slowly calming down.
It took a long time for his rapid breathing to calm down, and everyone was waiting for him to kick his legs and close his eyes, only Jiang Luo was picking up the sweet potato in the fire.
She was looking for a sweet potato that looked good.
"Delicious!" Xu An gave a thumbs up, and couldn't wait to pick a sweet potato.
Seeing that he was safe and sound, the hearts of the onlookers were moved.
"Are you really okay?" Old Madam Jiang asked him.
He was too lazy to take care of it, and only thought about eating another big one.
Jiang Luo had already picked it out and let it cool for a while. She picked up the black sweet potato, which seemed to have been burned a little too much, but it didn't affect much.
She peeled off the skin and took a bite, it was soft and glutinous, and there was a sweet and greasy taste in the mouth, no different from roasted sweet potatoes.
"Sister!" When Jiang Cheng turned around and saw that she had already eaten two bites, he was so frightened that his soul was scattered.
"Don't eat it!"
Jiang Luo reluctantly handed the peeled sweet potato in his hand to Jiang Cheng, "Brother, taste it, it's delicious." ”
Jiang Cheng's eyes were filled with tears, his sister had eaten poisonous food, he didn't want to live anymore, he wanted to die with his sister.
He bit his lip and took a bite of the sweet potato that Jiang had fallen into his hand, which was unexpectedly sweet and made him a little lost.
Jiang Luo tasted it again, and took a large sip of water, so as not to choke to death.
"It's OK to eat!" I don't know who shouted, and the sweet potatoes in the fire were all divided.
Chen Xianyue was even squeezed out directly, and she didn't taste a bite of the burned sweet potato. She could only continue to take Jiang Ran to dig sweet potatoes, and everyone had a tacit understanding of the division of labor, taking water, finding firewood, and digging sweet potatoes.
As the sun set, everyone in the Jiang family ate and drank to their heart's content, lying on the bank of the river to rest.
It feels so good to be alive.
Jiang Luo pillowed his arm, watching the sunset set, a large red sunset reflecting the earth, a strange feeling welled up in his heart.
She likes the dark so she can see the direction of her ship. But I didn't expect the view at dusk to be so stunning.
"Look! Divine Bird! Zhou Yan took out the sweet potatoes baked in the fire and packed them in a package, ready to be used as dry food when he was on his way.
As soon as he looked up, he saw a bird with long feathers and bright red fur perched on the dead tree. It's huge, and it seems to glow brightly in the sunset!
"It's really a divine bird!"
