Chapter 667: Mountain View

At the beginning of August, Gao Mingcheng returned to the village to pick up Gao Zhuang's family, and then in order to prepare for the opening of kindergarten enrollment, he has been very busy, and he has not returned to Gaojia Village for more than a month.

In the past month, Chen Dasong went to the county every once in a while to deliver to him, and Chen Dasong also picked all the watermelons and melons in the field and sent them to the kindergarten.

After a month, Gao Mingcheng returned to Gaojia Village again, and there was a feeling of being in a different world, he played with the black tiger elves and other dogs for a while, and he couldn't wait to enter the mountain.

However, he still has some preparations to do before entering the mountain.

Gao Mingcheng took out a javelin from the utility room, then fetched a basin of water and brought it to the whetstone in front of the door.

There is a whetstone under the osmanthus tree in front of the door, and if you need to sharpen the knife, you can move a stool and sit here to sharpen the knife.

Wet both the whetstone and the javelin tip with water, and then you can sharpen it.

This javelin has not been used for a while, and the head of the gun is dusty and a little dull to look at, but it only needs to be sharpened for a while, and the edge of the head will become bright white again and return to sharpness.

Many Mei knew that Gao Mingcheng was going to enter the mountain, but she didn't understand why Gao Mingcheng was keen to enter the mountain, because for her, entering the mountain was a very tiring thing.

Many beauties have to go into the mountains to collect firewood since childhood, and will also go into the mountains to pick wild fruits to eat, and every time they go down the mountain, they often get tired and can't straighten their waists.

Later, when she married Gao Mingcheng, Gao Mingcheng didn't let her go into the mountains much, whether it was digging herbs or collecting firewood, Gao Mingcheng did it all, she only needed to do housework and manage the vegetable patch in front of the door.

As soon as Da Mei returned to the village, she talked to her second sister Duo Yu, so when Gao Mingcheng sharpened his javelin and was about to leave, Da Mei found Gao Mingcheng and said, "At noon, we will go to the second sister's house for dinner, and after you go down the mountain, remember to go over there." ”

Gao Mingcheng nodded and said, "Okay, the stove at home must be dusty, and it's troublesome to get clean." ”

Many beauties pursed their lips and smiled, and said, "Then don't expect the second sister's stove to be clean!" ”

Gao Mingcheng was stunned for a moment, and then smiled.

The countryside is firewood, the firewood is dusty, and the smoke is also big when stir-frying, even if it is a diligent person, the kitchen is inevitably full of dust, and you have to wait until the New Year to remove the dust.

Gao Mingcheng has never been a person who is obsessed with cleanliness, in his opinion, as long as the pots and pans are clean and the dishes are clean, then it will be fine!

Gao Mingcheng threw the spear up, and then caught it naturally, he smiled: "I'm leaving, wait until I bring you prey back to eat!" ”

In addition to bringing a javelin, Gao Mingcheng also brought a plastic bag and stuffed it into his pocket, just in case he found any wild fruits in the mountains, he had a bag to put it in.

As before, he led the black tiger and the elf to the mountain, and his vigorous figure walked on the mountain road, as dexterous as an ape.

Big Yellow still took Da Hei and Xiao Hei to send each other, all the way to the halfway up the mountain before stopping, and at this time, Gao Mingcheng had already sped up, running wildly in the mountains and forests at a speed that was difficult for black tigers and elves to catch up.

As he ran wildly, he roared, and his voice traveled far, far away, and there were echoes.

The birds frightened the beasts, but the subtle movements they made set off the extraordinary silence in the mountains.

People walk in the mountains, and as far as the eye can see, there is a piece of greenery.

And this greenery is not static, there are green, dark green, light green, and some trees have red leaves, and the color changes are varied.

Some trees have red leaves, which seems to be a common thing for children in the mountains, but if you ask him why the leaves are red, he will not be able to answer nine times out of ten.

Gao Mingcheng's education is low, so he naturally doesn't know, but thanks to the explosion of Internet information and the development of self-media in his previous life, when he was bored with scrolling through the web page, strange knowledge points entered his brain with a sudden attitude.

Only then did he know that the reason why the young leaves were red was because of the increase in anthocyanins, and it was also because the plants were trying to prevent the invasion of pests and diseases, because herbivorous insects were sensitive to blue light, but lacked red receptors, which was equivalent to the red young leaves being able to shield off pests and diseases.

Strange knowledge points flashed in Gao Mingcheng's mind, he didn't care, his eyes swept over the layers of trees, and he recognized the familiar vegetation.

The yellow gardenia has already hung fruit, but the fruit is green and has not yet turned yellow, which has to wait until the end of September or early October to be able to pick and concoct dried medicine.

In the same way, the seeds of the cypress tree are not yet ripe, and the cypress tree is full of cypress seeds, which look like small green stars. Cypress seeds are a medicinal herb that can also be used to make incense.

In addition to these things that cannot be eaten, Gao Mingcheng's eyes also stayed on trees such as twisted trees, hairy chestnut trees, and wild persimmons.

In the vines of the ravines in the mountains, there are a few wild grapes that spread everywhere, the wild grapes ripen late, and at this time there are still hanging fruits, most of the fruits are very small, in a bunch of fruits, most of them are green, only a few have turned red.

You can eat it when it turns red, but the taste is quite average, Gao Mingcheng only went into the mountains to pick wild grapes to eat when he was a child, and then he didn't have this thought.

But since he met it, he also reached out and picked a few wild grapes to eat, and the entrance was sweet and sour, with less meat and more seeds, so he only ate one taste.

As for the hairy chestnut and wild persimmon, they are not ripe yet, and when Gao Mingcheng passed under the tree, he didn't give him a second look.

He ran to the top of a mountain, and when he reached the top of a mountain, he looked around, and saw the low mountains like a mountain bag, and the high mountains in the distance like ten thousand people.

Running all the way here, Gao Mingcheng finally felt a sense of relaxation, he howled twice at the distant mountain, and the depression accumulated in his heart disappeared in an instant.

Stopping to enjoy the scenery for a while, there was movement in the bushes, it turned out that the black tiger and the elf finally caught up, and the two dogs ran wildly in the woods, and their tired tongues were spit out.

Gao Mingcheng couldn't help laughing when he saw the stupid appearance of the two dogs, reached out and touched the dog's head, teasing them.

After resting for a while, seeing that the state of the two dogs had recovered, Gao Mingcheng said, "Let's go, find the prey!" ”

He brought a javelin today, naturally hoping to make a gain, not to mention hitting an adult wild boar, at least a yellow muntjac!

There are two dogs leading the way, Gao Mingcheng carried a javelin, began to trace the traces of wild boars all over the mountains, now the large beasts in the mountains, are the most wild boars, it is now September, it is the time when wild boars begin to eat crazy autumn fat.

There are a large number of kudzu roots in the mountains, and the leaves on the kudzu vine and the rhizomes in the ground are the favorite food of wild boars.

Along the way, Gao Mingcheng saw many traces left by wild boars gnawing on kudzu, as well as traces of soil being arched and gnawing on kudzu.

However, now is not the best time to eat kudzu, because the starch content of kudzu at this time is not high, not only the taste is not so good, but the nutritional value is also average.

In addition to the gnawed kudzu vines, Gao Mingcheng also saw some wild yams, the leaves of the yam are very recognizable, like hearts, and there are many small yam beans on the vines.

There are two kinds of propagation of yams, one is rhizome propagation, if it is planted, it is best to choose rhizome propagation to be able to harvest that year.

Another kind of reproduction is to sow yam beans, and the many yam beans on this vine are actually yam seeds, which can take root and sprout when they land.

Of course, you can also take it off and cook it, and the taste is very glutinous.

When Gao Mingcheng entered the mountain before, he didn't see much wild yam, but he didn't expect so many pieces to grow here, and looking at the thickness of the vines, he knew that this yam was not short.

If it weren't for the fact that the yam would have to wait until October to be harvested, Gao Mingcheng would have wanted to dig some now, yam stewed pork ribs, yam stewed chicken, it is delicious and nutritious!

Gao Mingcheng silently wrote down this place, planning to wait for October to be free, and then come here to dig some yams and go back.

Thinking so in his mind, suddenly Gao Mingcheng seemed to hear something, and then looked at the black tiger and elf who led the way in front of him, they also seemed to be aware of it, and their expressions became vigilant.

Gao Mingcheng knew that there was a high probability that there was prey in front of him.

Gao Mingcheng couldn't help but hold the wooden pole of the javelin, and a gleam jumped in his eyes.

The footsteps seemed to become lighter at this moment, and Gao Mingcheng followed the sound and finally saw a group of wild boars at the bottom of the hillside.

There are a total of six wild boars in the wild boar family, four of which are larger, only two wild boars are smaller, at this time they are looking down to eat food, the leading wild boar is particularly vigilant, as soon as there is a wind and grass, it will look up vigilantly, and after the warning is lifted, it will continue to bow its head and eat.
