Chapter 80

Mountain cross-country is like a routine for Shu Yingtong.

Encountering a few small animals on the road is an extra gain.

Wild herbs are not left behind either.

Cutting, digging, pulling, prying, different techniques correspond to different medicinal materials.

One afternoon, the weight of the backpack was already a little painful on the shoulders.

Shu Yingtong was going back to the village to make up for lunch.

When passing through a forest, her eyes lit up. On the small soil slope surrounded by messy weeds and bushes, there was a crooked and bare mulberry tree that caught her sight.

It's not because of its ugliness, but because of this mulberry tree of unknown age, there is a black and irregular shallow tree hole at the bottom of the gray-white bark, and a few khaki-colored fungi grow on it.

The big one was bigger than her face, and the small one was the size of a palm.

It was one of the medicinal materials in the list of medicinal materials that Jing Yunyan gave her: Phellinus huang over 30 years old.

Pure wild precious medicinal materials are hard to come by.

After taking two steps forward, Shu Yingtong stopped, the hatchet retreated to the space, and replaced with the hand crossbow.

The weeds are withered and yellow, the autumn wind blows and the fallen leaves flutter and fall on the low bushes, and a large clump of wormwood sways in the wind.

There are circular grass holes drilled by animals in the grass. The weeds under the grass holes are pressed flat, and there is a pile of excrement mixed with chicken feathers not far from the messy grass.

Obviously, this is a pheasant nest used for winter.

There was some movement in the clump of weeds earlier, but Shu Yingtong held his breath and walked forward slowly with the hand crossbow in hand.

I was overjoyed when I saw a big brown striped snake coiled under the bushes, full of food and drink, basking in the sun.

Here comes the food delivery.

The mouth of the bowl is thick and can stew a large pot.

Aiming at the python's heart and lungs, three consecutive arrows flew out quickly.

One of the arrows is at the spine.

After the blunt sound of the sharp weapon piercing the flesh, the boa constrictor twisted a few times and stopped moving, without having time to fight back.

Shu Yingtong explored the grass for a while, and when there was no danger, he put away the crossbow and the arrows on the snake, and went forward with a hatchet to pry the Phellinus off the mulberry tree.

The front is as rough as dry bark, with concentric and scattered vertical stripes, and the moss attached to it looks dirty when it dries.

The ventral surface is dark yellow, uneven.

Sang Huang was put into the space warehouse, and Shu Yingtong picked up the middle part of the snake and dragged it to test the weight. It was three meters long and at least sixty catties as a base.

The basket and the snake were placed on the open space, and Shu Yingtong went down the mountain with only a hatchet.

I didn't take out the things until I got to the foot of the mountain. After all, I didn't want to be too mythical about myself, and I still had to do what I should do.

The villagers who opened up wasteland saw her dragging something back from a distance, and at first thought it was some vines.

"Hey! Girl, where did you hit such a big snake!"

"Hey, this snake weighs dozens of catties!"

"Take it to the county and sell it for a lot of money."

A group of people put down their farm tools and came up to see the strange things. Even the little girl and daughter-in-law who are afraid of snakes gathered around and hid behind others to bravely join in the fun.

Shu Yingtong couldn't understand that these people are not afraid of fighting with others with a hatchet, but are afraid of a dead snake...

"Yeah. Xiumeishan called, I'll go back first."

There were too many people watching, and there were many villagers from Beiying. Shu Yingtong didn't say anything about the stewed snake meat, and he didn't plan to meet anyone to participate.

The snake was beaten by her alone, and she owes no favors, and unconditional sharing will only increase the appetite of others.

"It's too scary, I can't..."

Huiru squatted beside the earthen stove with a bitter face, holding a kitchen knife in front of her, feeling like crying.

I didn't see the girl when I was having lunch, and I heard from others that she went into the mountains.

Thinking about using a small fire to warm the food in the pot, there was a rustle and then a muffled bang, and when she turned her head, she saw the boa constrictor with a bowl-sized mouth on the ground looking at her.

I was born afraid of this kind of snake that has no legs and can run fast, but I didn't know that the girl asked her to open the snake.

"I'm not afraid of killing people, but I'm afraid of killing snakes? It's already dead, just deal with it."

"That's different..."

"Why is it different?"

"Why are we discussing murder...Girl, why don't you come?" Huiru looked at Shu Yingtong with an ugly smile.

Normally, she would not have the guts to ask the girl to work, and even if she was killed today, she would not dare to peel the snake.

"I won't." Shu Yingtong confessed very simply.

The kitchen is a difficult problem for her to overcome. She only washes the ingredients and throws them together to cook.

It can only guarantee that there will be no wrong seasoning, and there will be no strange taste of sweet or salty, and whether it is delicious or not is not in her consideration.

In my previous life, I mostly ate semi-finished fast food, basically had no cooking skills, and had no high-quality pursuit of food.

It was only when rebirth came here that life was freed from the state of constant high tension. Compared with the meals made by Zhu Yu and Huiru, she felt that what she cooked when she was fleeing famine was simply pig food.

Huiru didn't expect that the seemingly omnipotent girl would not know how to do anything. Thinking about it carefully, it seems that she has never seen a girl cook.

"I'll call Aunt Yao and my mother!" Huiru leaned against the wall and slowly moved out of the kitchen, rushing out, "Mother~"

Now that Yao Shi is here to deal with it, Shu Yingtong has nothing to worry about, just throw the other prey on the ground and forget about it.

She has more important things to do than eat.

Go to the space to cultivate Camellia oleifera seedlings with Camellia oleifera seeds.

Huanshan Village is very lively, and Yuanxian County is also very lively.

"It's a good thing I brought so many pancakes! Just now I asked the vegetarian steamed stuffed bun seller, ten yuan and two, I'm afraid they are not eating money."

Zhu Yu sat under the wall outside the inn, stuffed his mouth full, choked on the cold and hard pancakes, took out the big bamboo tube he was carrying on his body, took off the lid and took a big gulp.

He turned his head and looked around, "What did Populus euphratica do? Put the cart here and leave."

Nie Kaicheng took a bite of the pancake and smiled inexplicably, "What else can we do? We'll know when he comes back."

As soon as the words fell, Populus euphratica came from a distance.

Dressed in a simple and elegant robe, with clear eyebrows, red lips and white teeth, his good looks attracted many young girls and daughter-in-laws to turn their heads.

"Here you are, it's still hot."

A big steaming bowl with oily flowers and green onion flowers floating in it was handed to Zhu Yu.

Zhu Yu took the soup bowl and sniffed it vigorously, surprise burst out on his face, "Broth soup!"

Hu Yang Lian Pao sat next to her, opened the dried lotus leaf bag in his hand, and handed the buns one by one to Zhu Yu's mouth.

Without even thinking about it, Zhu Yu opened his mouth wide and took a bite, "Uuuuuuuuuuuuu, meat bun!"

"I knew it... I'm really willing to burn money." Nie Kaicheng shook his head with a smile, and suddenly felt that the pancakes in his hand were not fragrant.

Meat buns cost ten renminbi, and that bowl of broth costs at least [-] renminbi.

"Eat slowly, I bought you four."

Hu Yang sat on the side and watched tenderly as Zhu Yu ate a meat bun in two bites, and drank half a bowl of broth.

Immediately afterwards, she saw her smacking her lips, putting aside half a bowl of broth with a heartbroken face, quickly took out the old money bag from her bosom, counted twenty coins, and grabbed his hand and put it in the palm of her hand.

"I only drank half a bowl of that broth... Let it be half the price, hehe..."

"I just bought it for you. What do you do with the money?" Hu Yang couldn't laugh or cry.

"Are you looking down on me, I have money!" Zhu Yu shook the old jingling purse vigorously.
