Chapter 394 Picnic Call

Han Li's exclamation startled Zhang Yaozu and attracted everyone's attention.

"The official name of the plant in your hand is Hellebore, but locally it should be called Hellebore trichophyton or Hellebore vulgaris. It's called Hellebore vulgaris in your place, and it's called Hellebore vulgaris at Qi Xiaomei's house.

This thing has certain differences in different places, so its usage is also different. However, here it is used to induce vomiting and kill insects. You only need to eat a little to make you vomit. However, throwing some into the toilet can effectively prevent it. Breeds maggot flies. "

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

"Gou has been growing up in the city since he was a child. He didn't recognize this Guling hellebore at all. Just now he was looking at its thick and thick leaves and thought that this dish could be more popular. Fortunately, Goose asked."

“So you can’t pick wild vegetables indiscriminately, and don’t touch those you don’t know or have heard of.”

With this little episode, the old educated youths became the guides for Hou Yuhua and the other new educated youths. If they had any doubts, they would come and ask.

Unfortunately, what the so-called old educated youths like Hao Hongmin knew was very limited, because they hadn't come here at this time last year, so Han Li's side became the place where he asked the most questions.

Everyone was talking and laughing while looking for wild vegetables. Before they knew it, it was almost noon, and everyone had something in their baskets, which was enough to satisfy their craving for no green vegetables all winter.

But now everyone needs to prepare to find an open, comfortable place with easy access to water to prepare for the picnic.

Choosing a place and building a temporary stove were left to the lesbians. Zhang Xiangjun and Zhang Yaozu went to look for firewood.

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

There was a dense forest not far ahead, but finding prey so close to the village was like a dream.

So Han Li didn't expect to find anything at all, but it was still necessary to go out and show off. In the end, it was impossible to take out two small animals from the decomposition space to make up the number.

Han Li didn't expect to hit the prey, but he couldn't stand it anymore and hit the muzzle of the gun blindly.

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 mental strength and discovered that there was a colorful pheasant inside. At this time, it was tyrannically twisting the head of a hen with dull feathers, and was trying to ride on the hen's back. Just know what you want.

Of course, Han Li could not allow such a thing to happen in broad daylight, so he threw the short javelin in his hand directly.

Phew. Chie.

I originally wanted to rescue the hen, but unexpectedly it turned into a candied haws.

But this was good, at least it allowed Han Li to accomplish his goal of going out for hunting.

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

Unfortunately, it didn't take long before I heard exclamations from the girls, followed by chattering discussions.

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

They chose a relatively wide place by the creek. There were many small stones on the bank. The surrounding environment was beautiful, the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant. The sound of the creek's water was tinkling and pleasant.

It has to be said that they used to go to the fields to work at dawn every day, and when they came back it was already sunset.

There is no time or energy to pay attention to these beautiful scenery right in front of you.

But after they temporarily let go of the shackles of labor, it will be more reliable for girls to return to beauty. At least the choice of this place is really good.

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

"What are you doing?"

Yun Yingying said in surprise when she saw it was Han Li.

"Brother Li, did you catch the prey and come back so soon?"

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

Hearing that Han Li returned because of this, Hao Hongmin said a little embarrassedly.

“When I was washing my hands by the stream just now, I noticed something crawling in the water. At the time, I thought it was a snake and screamed in fright, but when I took a closer look, it turned out to be crayfish.

But Sister Yun said that these are crickets, not crayfish, and they are countless times more delicious than crayfish, but no matter what they are, they can give us extra meals, so everyone plans to go into the water to catch some. "

Han Li became energetic when talking about this. In his previous life, he ate crayfish a lot. Spicy, braised in oil, and minced garlic all have their own tastes. However, he still likes to eat spicy crayfish the most. Not to mention how refreshing it is to have a bottle of cold beer.

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 was an invasive species introduced to my country in 1927. It was cultivated near Jinling at that time. Due to its characteristics, it did not take long to cause great losses to local agriculture.

At first, they were killed directly after they were caught. Later, they started to be caught during difficult times and used them as part of the food. Only then did crayfish come into everyone's sight.

And the crayfish is a unique ‘lobster’ in our native land, which should be considered a kind of river shrimp.

However, if you compare them, the difference can only be described as heaven and earth.

Crayfish is dark red, while crayfish is blue-brown. Crayfish has a thick shell and hard spines, while crayfish has a larger head and a smoother surface without obvious bumps and spines.

Crayfish can also survive in sewers and sewage. If they are not handled properly, they will have a very strong smell.

Crayfish is a kind of little guy with mysophobia. It has very high requirements for the water quality of life. It can only live in some streams and rivers with clear water and no pollution. Therefore, many places use crayfish as one of the standards for water quality testing.

You have never seen crayfish in the small river near the village. That is because the villagers often wash clothes, take a bath, and wash vegetables there, so they are disliked by these little guys.

Such a clean little fellow basically has no peculiar smell or muddy smell. It only needs simple cooking, and its taste is more delicious and tastier than crayfish. "

Han Li frowned when he saw them taking off their shoes and socks. He didn't expect that even Yun Jingjing wanted to join in the activity of catching crayfish, but has she forgotten the pain of her menstruation before?

Although the yin and yang have been harmonized since she followed him, this situation rarely occurs, but she can't help but feel uncomfortable when she climbs the pole, so he glanced at Yun Jingjing and said.

"Don't catch crayfish. Just look at the ice and snow on the top of the mountain and you should know how cold the stream is. Jumping into the freezing water at this time means that you will hold your stomach and feel uncomfortable on special days. "

Han Li's words made all the girls silent. After all, no one wanted to roll around on the kang with their bellies when their period came.

Yun Jingjing remembered the glance Han Li had given her just now, and a tender smile rose at the corner of her mouth.

After Han Li finished talking to the others, he was about to take off his shoes and socks. At this time, Yun Yingying hurried over to stop him.

"Brother Li, why don't we not eat this cicada? It will be uncomfortable if you go into such cold water."

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

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

This stream is really clear, and there are some small fish swimming leisurely in it.

But their comfortable environment was immediately broken, and the three men jumped in with six feet.

It's cold, really cold.

"Brother Han, this water is really cold. "

"Yes, but it's worth it to eat delicious cicadas, but we have to be faster. "

Han Li rolled up his sleeves and reached out to lift a large stone under the water. The two crayfish hiding underneath hurriedly tried to escape, but he threw them onto the shore one by one.

This crayfish is a very fertile creature. As long as the water quality nearby is suitable for their survival, the number is really not to be mentioned.

Almost every stone that the three of them lifted up could find one or two crayfish, or even several crayfish hiding.

Han Li and the other three men were catching them in the water, while the girls were cleaning the crayfish's shrimp threads on the shore.

Among them, Hao Hongmin and Yang Xiuying were the most skillful, while Yun Jingjing was working while thinking about going back to the village to find Aunt Zhao to learn the long-standing method of making crayfish tofu.

It is said that this dish has a long history, but because the method is too complicated, many families are unwilling to waste this dish. Time and energy.

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

Because she saw the yearning in Han Li's eyes when he talked about cicadas just now, that look had never appeared when he ate bear meat, flying dragon, or snow clam, and she must satisfy her man's yearning.

Han Li would be moved if he knew Yun Jingjing's idea, but he should be more of a laughing stock, because at that time he was just reminiscing about his life in his previous life.

There were a lot of cicadas in this section of the stream, and Han Li and the other three were very fast because the water was cold.

One by one, the cicadas were thrown to the shore, and soon Yang Xiuying was heard shouting on the shore.

"This thing can't be preserved. Now it's almost enough for us to eat. It's a pity to waste it if we can't finish it. Han Li, come up quickly. "

Han Li and his three companions came out of the water, sat by the fire, toasted their cold feet and chatted.

The girls started to get busy by another fire, some were fiddling with pheasants, some were picking wild vegetables, and some were catching crayfish.

Some wild vegetables were blanched and put aside, and some were just washed with stream water after being picked.

Since they brought limited things when they came, most of these wild vegetables will be eaten with sauce later.

After asking for everyone's opinions, the crayfish were stir-fried with the chili peppers and a small piece of lard they brought with them, plus the small roots of garlic they had just dug up, and the taste was very good.

The two pheasants that Han Li caught were of course stewed in soup, and while stewing the soup, they could also take the opportunity to soften the dry food they brought with them.

When it was finally served, Yun Jingjing sprinkled a layer of green leaves on it. The light oil and green leaves directly raised the level of this pot of soup.

However, when eating, almost everyone immediately reached out their chopsticks for green vegetables, which made everyone laugh.

It's not that everyone doesn't like crayfish and chicken soup, but they haven't eaten green vegetables for several months. Now this is the first psychological and physiological reaction.

When Han Li and his group were having a picnic by the stream in the mountains, Liu, the leader of the wilderness station, also received a call from Gao Hu.

"Haha. Old Liu, I'm Gao Hu. You are really too unkind. It's okay if you don't talk about the number of books. I will try my best to help you find more, but the work in the Fourth Nine City, and it must be a civilian position in the government unit, is not so easy to do."
