Chapter 67 Meat mushrooms
The reason why this vast savannah is inaccessible is not only because of the Great Black Mountain. For more up-to-date chapters, visit: ะจะฉะฉ.(7)(9)XS.ัะะ. The area is hilly for hundreds of miles, and when the snow melts and seeps into the soil in spring, the soil becomes very soft, and puddles accumulate in some low-lying areas. On the surface, it's a green pasture, but in the summer it's a hell of eating people and not spitting out bones. Walking out of the Great Black Mountain, in the direction of Lake Noor, more than two hundred miles of land were covered with mud and swamps, except for those poisonous worms under the wet soil, there was nothing to breathe.
It is the beginning of spring, and although the snow on the surface of the soil is gradually melting, the ground below is all frozen soil, and horses can still run on the pastures, and if it were another month, I am afraid that these twenty or so people will have been swallowed up by the quagmire and swamp by now.
Known as the "Eye of Eternal Heaven" in the prairie, Noer Lake is a gathering place for cattle and sheep on the prairie with a wide surface and a gentle and clear water flow.
In the vast prairie, the sea and sky are full of green 'colored' grass shoots, everyone escaped death, and their hearts were stunned, until more than one o'clock in the afternoon, and the people were tired and the horses were tired.
"Cheng Feng, we don't have anything to eat, what should we do?" Liu Mazi said.
In fact, it is not that Liu Mazi is not fully prepared, according to the original route, they have to pass through several pastures on the prairie, and they can buy some 'milk' cheese and beef and sheep 'meat' from the villagers. But I changed my route halfway through, and I had already eaten up all the dry food I had brought. There is no shortage of water on the prairie in 'spring', but you have to talk about what to eat, unless it is the green 'color' grass under your feet.
"Let the brothers bear with me, you can enter Lake Knoll at about five o'clock in the evening, and eat with an open stomach when the time comes. Let the horses eat first, hurry up and hurry! Ma Chengfeng commanded.
Everyone was tired of running in the morning, and they had been bumping on horseback for half a day, and their stomachs were grunting with hunger. One by one, they sat on the green grass with their stomachs covered and looked at the white clouds floating overhead, in a daze.
I don't know who shouted, and everyone immediately rushed forward with two eyes flashing brightly.
"Big cabinet, Master Liu, take a look, there are mushrooms in this piece! It's 'quite' fragrant! โ
Ma Chengfeng and the others ran over to take a look, and in front of a moist depression, sure enough, there were many white mushrooms growing in the soil, and the white mushrooms were one by one, big and 'fat'.
"It smells so good!! Big cabinet, we can't go on an empty stomach, why don't you bake something to eat? One by one, the brothers lowered their heads and busily picked fragrant mushrooms.
"Uni, you are a steppe person, you should recognize these mushrooms, you can show everyone, are they poisonous?" Ma Chengfeng asked Uni.
There are countless species growing on the vast steppe, there are tens of thousands of species, don't look at Uni is a native of Chahar, but can't you recognize them all? Besides, there are many types of mushrooms, and there are many exquisite, some mushrooms are obviously non-toxic, but they can be eaten with certain ingredients, and they become deadly poisons; There are also some that are obviously poisonous, but they are rich in nutritional value when cooked.
"Big cabinet, this mushroom is actually very easy to identify, those 'flowers' and bells are poisonous, otherwise they can be eaten." Uni couldn't tell why, and it was the first time he had seen this kind of fungus growing in the depression in the 'spring' day.
There are no markings on the surface of these white mushrooms, the crown is wide and 'fat', and the aroma is tangy, and the worms in the stomach of the hooked person crawl straight out.
Its fragrance is very special, not the fragrance of ordinary mushrooms, but similar to the fragrance of some kind of 'meat'. The smell is the same as ...... It's like stewed elbows in someone's pot.
Ma Chengfeng lowered his head and took off a piece and stuffed it into his mouth. Na Xiu quickly snatched it and fell to the ground. "Don't eat yet! Don't you think there's something special about the smell of this mushroom? โ
"It should be all right, right? You see, there are no markings on it, and there is no 'bright' or 'color', which is similar to the white mushrooms we usually eat? Ma Chengfeng said. He was holding the mushroom in his hand, and the fragrance became more and more intense.
The scent was almost indescribable, like a poppy 'flower', and when I smelled it, everyone's horns were already dripping. Na Xiu also wanted to eat, but he couldn't help it, but when he looked back, his little black cat was hiding far away, and he didn't want to get close to the white mushroom at all.
A cat's sense of smell is more sensitive than that of a human, and if it is really a delicacy in the world, it will definitely be the first to rush to eat. Not only did the sunspots not eat, but even the horses were reluctant to approach. This made Na Xiu suspicious.
"Don't eat yet, everyone! Don't eat it! Potentially toxic! "That shouted.
"That brother, you are too worried, how fragrant are you to smell? This is the delicacy of the world! Do you know? Mushrooms are also known as vegetarian 'meat' and have high nutritional value. These are pure natural delicacy, no pesticide 'medicine' and 'fertilizer', eat it! "Ma Chengfeng is usually not greedy, but this time, I don't know why, I just can't resist the 'temptation' and 'confusion' of the fragrance of white mushrooms.
Over there, the brothers had already set up an iron pot and boiled a large pot full of white mushrooms. As soon as the water boiled, it bubbled inside, and the smell of 'meat' came to my nose, even more fragrant than just now, and the smell was simply fragrant. These iron-clad men couldn't hold back any longer, rushed up and lay around the iron pot, eager to reach in and eat it directly.
"Hey, hey? How many of you are like talking? I haven't eaten with the big cabinet yet! Get out of the way! Liu Mazi took a small bowl and spoon and pushed away the crowd and walked over.
"Master Liu, it's not right for you to say that, what's wrong? You and the big cabinet are people, so we are not people, are we? Why are you here if there is something delicious? Who knows, the subordinates who have always sworn allegiance to him actually pushed him out.
"Made! Little bunny, I think you're trying to rebel, aren't you? Liu Mazi was furious.
"Brethren, we're not doing it! What's more, it's enough to pin your head to the belt of your 'trousers', you can't even eat steadily, he Liu Mazi is the landlord's old wealth! "I don't know who was the first to shout. This voice immediately aroused the response of other people, and everyone actually picked up their shotguns and aimed them at Liu Mazi.
"You ...... You guys? Are you doing the opposite? โ
"Master Liu, we don't dare, but you and the big cabinet won't be able to eat this pot of mushroom soup."
Ma Chengfeng watched all the brothers fight just for this pot of mushroom soup, and he was a little surprised in his heart. These guys are all old people who have followed Liu Mazi from birth to death for decades, how can they suddenly turn back? If it's because of the food, you don't have to! I just ate dry food in the morning, even if I was hungry, it would be fine, and Liu Mazi has always been good to them, usually follow him to eat and drink spicy food, how can he treat him like this now?
"Uncle Mazi? Forget it, forget it, let them go, don't be angry because of the food. Although he said so, Ma Chengfeng still couldn't stop the mushroom soup from flowing out, the pot of mushroom soup was too fragrant.
