Chapter 10 Going up the mountain to find food

Chang Ning walked along the trampled path to the bottom of the mountain. There was a large field of overgrown weeds next to the road. It seemed that someone had tried to plant something before, and he could vaguely see the vegetable beds from the grass.

But later, it may have given up, and the wasteland was reclaimed halfway.

Chang Ning broke a branch on the side of the road and poked the soil. The surface was very tight. If you want to grow vegetables, you have to loosen the soil well, and it takes some effort.

This place is not far from her thatched hut, but it is very suitable for her. Chang Ning decided to go back and ask Cao Nianshun. If no one else likes this place, she decided to open up the land.

Then Chang Ning continued to walk up the mountain.

The vegetation in the mountains and forests is dense, and sunlight can only throw mottled spots on the path through the cracks of leaves. In addition, the morning wind is still chilling. Chang Ning is not only not hot when walking on the road, but also a little chilly.

She walked two miles, not to mention living things such as pheasants, hares, and rabbits, she didn't even see a single mushroom and wild vegetables.

It is probably because it is too close to the village and has been looted by the villagers.

Chang Ning didn't want to go back so early and stared at Han Mingyuan with big eyes, nor did he want to return without success, so he walked two miles into the mountains and forests again.

Originally, there were paths that were specially stepped on by people on the periphery. As we went deeper, the more difficult the road surface became, and the paths were even harder to see in many places.

Chang Ning is not afraid of any ferocious birds and beasts in the mountains. Although she does not know the so-called martial arts, it is completely fine to protect her from the things in the space chip.

But after she traveled through time and rebirth, she didn't want to bring future technology into this world, so she did not want to use those things as much as possible.

So Chang Ning stopped in disappointment, did not intend to go deeper, and prepared to rest and return.

There was a mountain spring flowing down from the mountain beside the shade of the tree. Chang Ning was thirsty, so he walked to the spring and took a drink with his hands.

The uncontaminated mountain spring fruit is really sweet and delicious. If you can take a bottle and take it back for auction, it can be sold for at least hundreds of thousands of dollars.

It's better in ancient times! Gold is everywhere.

She was satisfied with drinking, and as soon as she stood up, she found a dark thing on the slope opposite the mountain spring. The sunlight was reflected on it, and there was still a little green light.

Thinking of the rural life I experienced in the smart simulator, the word "pickle" instantly jumped into my heart.

Today's main course has been settled!

Chang Ning ran towards the land cabbage with joy and excitement.

Greeds, also known as earth fungus, grow on wet soil or stone surfaces and usually grows in flakes after rain.

The whole body is brown and yellow, looks like a fungus, rich in protein, amino acids, polysaccharides and a variety of vitamins, and stir-fry with some oil and a little spicy millet, which has a great taste.

The only disadvantage is the same as that of black fungus - hidden sand, which requires washing back and forth many times before cleaning up the impurities inside.

Chang Ning gently peeled them off the ground, and the cool and tender touch was very similar to jelly. He put them in water to rinse them, and they were as bright as jade.

She evenly put the peeled chard into the basket, sprinkled some water on it, and then covered it with a layer of leaves so that the temperature would rise at noon and bake them dry.

Greeds are much more fragile than fungus. The temperature exceeds twenty degrees and will gradually wither and shrivel. If you miss the picking time, it will soon melt into the soil.

Chang Ning was glad that he was lucky today and met the land of the croquette growing by the mountain spring.

Twenty minutes later, seeing the basket full of layers, enough for them to add a meal to the afternoon and evening, Chang Ning stopped satisfied, then stuck out his butt and returned to the edge of the spring water to wash away the mud and sand.

Just then, a rustling sound came from the small earth slope not far from the spring. Chang Ning didn't feel the wind, but the grass on the earth slope was automatically windless.

Rabbits in the wild are used to making holes and nests on the slopes beside the water, especially weeds at the door to cover them. They are like rabbits who can move into a well-decorated room with their luggage.

She rolled up her sleeves and tiptoed towards the grass. When she got closer, she could vaguely see the dark things moving slowly from the gaps in the grass.

Chang Ning stared with breath, then rushed forward.

The thing was frightened and struggled violently, rolled up the drafting clips and scattered.

It was not until he felt the bare and smooth touch in his hand that Chang Ning could see clearly the whole picture of this thing. There was no rabbit, but it was clearly a black-skinned snake.

Speaking of which, mid-March is the time when snakes begin to wake up. The snake must have just hibernated and came out to find food, but it happened to hit Chang Ning's hand.

Chang Ning pinched the snake's head with one hand and grabbed its seven inches with the other. The black-skinned snake no longer struggled, but circled it along Chang Ning's arm several times, trying to use force to squeeze her slender hand.

Chang Ning felt a little uncomfortable because of being entangled. As soon as his subordinate tried his best, he directly pinched his heart.

It's really bad luck, and if you sleep in more, you won't lose your life.

Although the rabbit was not caught, this black-skinned snake is also very useful. It can be used to nourish the soup and nourish it as a medicine.

However, Han Mingyuan's body is weak and he is not nourished, so he definitely cannot drink snake soup.

Now that he has meat and vegetables in hand, Chang Ning has no need to spend it on the mountain, so he carried a basket and went down the mountain.

When she returned to the village, she went straight to Cao Nianshun's house.

Cao Nianshun was sitting on the threshold and rolled up tobacco. He pulled a piece of yellow-brown tobacco off the size of half a palm, then rubbed the tobacco with his hands and sprinkled it on it, then rolled the tobacco in one direction, folded it in half and stuffed it into the cigarette pole.

He approached the cigarette pole near the small stove that was burning in front of him. When he saw the tobacco being lit, he raised his hand and shook his hands, threw out the open flame, and then put it in his mouth and took a deep breath.

The tobacco Mars Cheng Liang on the cigarette pole quickly burned. Cao Nianshun vomited a puff of cigarette and frowned a little dissatisfied.

"Tsk, it's too soft."

As soon as he looked up, he saw Chang Ning walking towards him through the ridge of the field.

Cao Nianshun quickly got up, walked to the edge of the yard and shouted to Chang Ning: "Girl, has your brother's wound been repeated?"

Chang Ning smiled and said, "No, he's fine."

After hearing this, Cao Nianshun calmed down and whispered another cigarette, "Then do you need any help?"

Chang Ning had already walked up to him now, and Cao Nianshun noticed that Chang Ning was holding a dead snake in his hand.

"Village Chief, you can take this snake to drink!"

Chang Ning handed the snake in his hand over, and Cao Nianshun's eyes lit up, and he was obviously happy, "You girl are so brave, you dare to catch the Black Mountain sickle!"

Cao Nian scolded Chang Ning with his mouth, but took it honestly.

The black-skinned snake has a non-toxic personality and a gentle personality. It doesn’t matter if it is bitten. It’s just that what Cao Nianshun didn’t expect was that Chang Ning actually had such great courage.

Not to mention that she looks like a delicate daughter, even women who have lived in the village since childhood are afraid of snakes.

This was beyond Cao Nianshun's surprise.
