Han Li's exclamation startled Zhang Yaozu and attracted everyone's attention at the same time.

"The official name of the plant in your hand is Quinoa, but it should be called Mao (vein) spike quinoa or Xing'an quinoa locally, Guling quinoa on your side, and Mao Ye quinoa on Qi Xiaomei's side.

This thing has a certain difference in different places, so their usage is also different, but here its function is to induce vomiting and insecticide, just eat a little to make you vomit in the dark, but throwing some into the toilet can effectively prevent the breeding of maggots. ”

Zhang Yaozu threw away the quinoa in his hand halfway when he heard it, and then said with a depressed face.

"The goose has grown up in the city since he was a child, and he doesn't recognize this Guling quinoa at all, just now he just looked at its thick dun dun leaves, and thought that this dish could produce a little more, but fortunately the goose asked."

"Therefore, wild vegetables should not be picked indiscriminately, and those you don't know or have heard of should not touch them."

With this little episode, the old intellectuals became the guides of Hou Yuhua and the new intellectuals, and those who couldn't make up their minds came to ask.

It's a pity that Hao Hongmin, the so-called old intellectuals, know very little, because they haven't come here at this time last year, so Han Li's side has become the place where the most questions are asked.

Everyone was talking and laughing while looking for wild vegetables, and before they knew it, it was almost noon, and everyone had their own harvest in their baskets, which was enough for them to solve their hunger for not eating green vegetables in winter.

But now everyone should be prepared to find an open, comfortable place with easy access to water to prepare for a picnic.

The matter of choosing a place and building a temporary stove was left to the female comrades, and Zhang Xiangjun and Zhang Yaozu went to find firewood to burn.

Since Yun Yingying and the others were a little tired from bending over to find wild vegetables all morning, Han Li went to the jungle alone to see if he could get any wild food.

There is a dense forest not far ahead, but finding prey in this kind of place close to the village is like a dream.

Therefore, Han Li didn't expect to find anything at all, but it was still necessary to come out and take a turn to make a show, and in the end, he really couldn't take out two small animals from the decomposition space to make up the numbers.

Han Li hadn't expected to hit the prey in the first place, but he really couldn't help but ram into the muzzle of the gun without opening his eyes.

He was walking in the jungle when he noticed that the shaking in the grass in front of him was obviously abnormal.

Han Li stretched out his spiritual power and found that it was a colorful pheasant inside, it was domineeringly twisting the head of a hen with dull feathers at this time, and it was also going to ride on the back of the hen, and at a glance he knew what he wanted.

In broad daylight, of course, Han Li couldn't condone such a thing, and the short javelin in his hand was thrown out directly.

Burst. Ji..

Originally, I wanted to rescue the hen, but I didn't expect it to be skewered into a sugar gourd.

But this is fine, at least Han Li has completed his goal of coming out to hunt.

Han Li didn't plan to continue wandering around, but he didn't plan to go back so early, he found a fallen big tree and lay down, looking at the blue sky through the leaves.

It's a pity that it didn't take long to hear the exclamation from the girl's side, and then there was a chattering discussion.

Han Li had no choice but to carry the two pheasants over to see what was going on, and followed the sound to the place where the girl was.

They chose a relatively wide place by the stream, with many small stones on the bank, and the surrounding environment was beautiful, the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant, and the sound of the stream was pleasant.

I have to say that they used to be every day. I went to work in the fields at dawn, and when I came back, it was already sunset.

I don't have the time or energy to pay attention to these beautiful scenery in front of me.

But when they temporarily let go of the shackles of labor, it is still more reliable for girls to love beauty after their minds return, at least this place is really good.

But they were sitting on the rocks by the stream, busily taking off their shoes and socks, as if they were about to go into the water.

"What are you going to do here?"

Yun Yingying saw that it was Han Li and immediately said in surprise.

"Brother Li, did you hit the prey so quickly?"

"I'm lucky, but I heard your shouts and came back, but what's the situation?"

Hearing that Han Li had only returned because of this, Hao Hongmin said a little embarrassed beside him.

"When I was washing my hands by the stream just now, I noticed that something seemed to be crawling in the water, and I thought it was a snake screaming in fright, but when I looked closely, it turned out to be a crayfish.

But Sister Yun said that this is a cricket, not a crayfish, and it is countless times better than crayfish, but no matter what they are, they can give us food, so everyone plans to go into the water and catch some. ”

Speaking of this, Han Li had a spirit, in his previous life, he didn't eat crayfish less, spicy, stewed, and garlic had their own flavors, but he still liked to eat spicy food the most, not to mention how refreshing it was to eat it with a bottle of cold beer when eating.

But Han Li had only heard of the cricket, and had never seen the real thing, let alone eaten it, he recalled the difference and said.

"Crayfish is an invasive species that was released into our country in 1927, and it was bred near Jinling at that time, and because of its characteristics, it did not take long to cause great losses to local agriculture.

At first, they were killed directly after being caught, and then they began to catch it in difficult times, and used it as a part of the food, which brought the crayfish into everyone's sight.

And the cricket is our native 'crayfish', which should be regarded as a kind of river shrimp.

However, if you insist on comparing them, it can only be described as the difference between cloud and mud.

The crayfish is dark red, the cricket is blue-brown, the crayfish shell is thick, not to mention the hard spines, the head of the cricket is relatively large, the appearance is smoother, and there are no obvious bumps and nail spines.

Crayfish also survive in sewers and sewage, and if they are not handled well, they will have a very heavy, heavy taste.

The cricket is a kind of little guy with a habit of cleanliness, it has very high requirements for the water quality of life, it can only live in some streams and rivers with clear water quality and no pollution, so many places will take the cricket as one of the standards for water quality testing.

You haven't seen crickets in the small river at the edge of the village, and that's because the villagers often wash clothes, bathe, and wash vegetables there, so they are disgusted by these little guys.

Such a clean little guy basically has no peculiar smell or muddy smell, just need to cook it simply, and its taste is more delicious and delicious than crayfish. ”

Han Li frowned when he said this and looked at the shoes and socks they were taking off, he didn't expect that even Yun Jingjing wanted to join in this activity of catching crickets, but had she forgotten the pain when the previous letter came?

Although the yin and yang are reconciled with herself, this situation rarely occurs, but she can't stand it and feel uncomfortable on the pole by herself, so she glanced at Yun Jingjing and said.

"Don't do anything to catch the crickets, look at the ice and snow on the top of the mountain to know how cold it is in the stream, and jumping into the cold and biting water at this time means that you will hold your stomach and feel uncomfortable on a special day."

Han Li said this and silenced all these girls, after all, no one wanted to lie on the kang with their stomachs in their arms when Yue Xin came.

Yun Jingjing remembered the glance Han Li had just glanced at herself, and the corners of her mouth raised a smile full of tenderness.

After Han Li finished talking about the others, he was about to start taking off his shoes and socks, when Yun Yingying hurriedly came over to stop him.

"Brother Li, if we don't eat this cricket, you will be uncomfortable if you go down with such cold water."

"Don't worry I'm fine, I've wanted to eat this cricket for a long time, and I found out today that I can't miss anything."

At this time, Zhang Xiangjun and Zhang Yaozu came back with firewood, and just three men jumped into the water to catch crickets.

The creek is really clear, and there are some small fish swimming leisurely in it.

But their cosy environment was immediately shattered, and three men jumped in on six legs.

Cool, really cool.

"Brother Han, this water is really cold."

"yes, but it's worth it to be able to eat delicious crickets, but we're going to have to go a little faster."

After Han Li finished speaking, he rolled up his sleeves and reached out to lift a large stone at the bottom of the water. The two crickets hiding below hurriedly tried to escape, but he threw them to the shore one by one.

This cricket is a very fertile creature, as long as the nearby water quality is suitable for their survival, this number is really not said.

The three of them lifted the stones, and one or two crickets could be found underneath almost every one, or even a few crickets hidden.

Han Li and the three men were catching in the water, and a few girls were cleaning the shrimp lines of the crickets on the shore.

Among them, Hao Hongmin and Yang Xiuying have the most nimble hands and feet, while Yun Jingjing is working while thinking about waiting to go back to the village to find Aunt Zhao to learn the long-inherited method of cricket tofu here.

It is said that this dish has a long history, but because the recipe is so complicated, many families are reluctant to waste this time and energy.

Yun Jingjing not only wanted to learn this dish, but she also planned to take out some things and money to ask the children in the village to help catch some back.

Because she saw the hint of yearning in Han Li's eyes when he talked about the crickets just now, that kind of look she had never had when she was eating bear meat, flying dragons, or snow clams, she must satisfy this yearning of her man.

Han Li would definitely be moved if he knew about Yun Jingjing's thoughts, but more often than not, he couldn't laugh or cry, because at that time he was just reminiscing about his life in his previous life.

There were a lot of crickets in this section of the stream, and Han Li and the three of them were also very fast because of the cold water.

One by one, the crickets were thrown to the shore, and it didn't take long to hear Yang Xiuying shouting on the shore.

"There is no way to save this thing, it is almost enough for us to eat now, what a pity it is wasted if we can't finish eating, Han Li, come up quickly."

Han Li and the three of them came out of the water and sat by the fire roasting their cold feet and chatting.

The girls began to get busy around the other fire, some fiddling with pheasants, some picking wild vegetables, and some playing with crickets.

Some wild vegetables are blanched and put aside, and some wild vegetables can be washed with stream water after picking.

Since they only have a limited amount of things to bring with them, most of these wild vegetables will be eaten by dipping sauce.

After asking everyone's opinions, the cricket was stir-fried with the chili pepper and a small piece of lard that he brought when he came, and the small garlic he just dug up, which tasted very good.

Of course, the two pheasants that Han Li caught were stewed soup, and when they stewed soup, they could also take the opportunity to soften the dry food they had brought with them.

When it came out of the pot at the end, Yun Jingjing sprinkled a layer of green vegetable leaves on it, and the faint oil flowers matched the green leaves, which directly raised the pot of soup to a higher level.

However, during the meal, almost everyone immediately stretched out their chopsticks to the green wild vegetables, which made everyone laugh.

It's not that people don't like crickets and chicken soup, but they haven't eaten green dishes for months, and now this is the first reaction psychologically and physically.

While Han Li's group was having a picnic by the stream in the mountains, Leader Liu of the wilderness station also received a call from that Gao Hu.

"Haha. Lao Liu, I'm Gao Hu, you're really not authentic, don't talk about the number of books, forget it, I'll try my best to help you find a little more, but the job over there in Sijiu City, and the clerical work of the government unit is not so easy to do. ”
