Chapter 119: Finding Ingredients
The primeval forest of Laojun Mountain in Lishui, although it is not as large as the primeval forest of Boiling Chong, is the most well-preserved green treasure house on the border in Huaxia. Its unique climate and geographical environment make it rich in forest resources. The lush foliage and shading trees cover the entire Laojun Mountain and the area in a lush greenery.
With such abundant forest resources, they provide a good habitat for wildlife. Such as bison, wild elephant, Yunnan golden snub-nosed monkey, red panda, pangolin, musk deer and other precious nationally protected species.
Since the Mesozoic Era, the geological movement in the western Hengduan Mountains has been relatively stable, and there is basically no large area of glacier cover, which has become a "refuge" for many animals, so that some ancient primitive species and relict species can be preserved, and has become a rare "gene pool of wild animal species", known as the "animal kingdom".
The variety of its species is such that in addition, there are a large number of small and rare species.
Except, of course, for these rare species that can be seen. Legend has it that in this huge primeval forest, there are still ancient tribal clans.
This ancient tribe is said to be a branch of the ancient Miao Jiang. From ancient times to the present, they still retain the ancient culture left by their ancestors, such as the Gu art of the Miaojiang civilization or something......
"Quick, the people in the back follow the people in front of you, don't get lost." Lao Zhao, who was wearing a raincoat and driving the road in front, shouted at the top of his voice.
It was already half past seven o'clock in the evening, and who would have expected that this storm had been going on for so long, and the signs that the village guides usually made were staggered under the heavy rain. Several people have been lost in the primeval forest for more than 5 hours, not to mention exhausting their physical strength, the fat man has already begun to collapse, if it weren't for Wang Chen supporting him, he might have fallen to the ground.
In addition to being drenched in the rain, some people also had several scratches on their hands. At this time, he was wearing a waterproof flashlight, and with the faint light, he cautiously followed behind the guide.
Although it doesn't rain anymore, the rain on the branches of the trees and the muddy water from the vines fall from time to time. They could only continue to wear raincoats that affected their movements, and find a suitable clearing for camping as soon as possible in the frighteningly dark primeval forest.
"How?" Seeing Chen Tao looking at his mobile phone again, Wang Chen asked a little expectantly.
Looking at the prompt showing no service on the screen, Chen Tao shook his head: "There is still no signal." ”
In order to avoid the tragedy of everyone's mobile phone running out of battery, now except for Chen Tao's mobile phone is still on, several others have turned off their phones.
Due to the lush vegetation in the primeval forest, the ponchos hanging on their bodies have been scratched and torn by branches, spikes, little by little, and the raincoats have drooped like grass skirts. Wang Chen thought that it would be impossible to have the opportunity to see the other party wearing a grass skirt in this life, but when he saw it here and now, it had a different flavor.
Of course, this is not the time to think about this, seeing Xu Furong who followed the guide, holding a compass and constantly identifying the direction, Wang Chen was a little worried. Although Xu Furong has always been very strong in his eyes, no matter how strong she is, she is also a girl, if she doesn't find a suitable place to camp soon, I am afraid that she will be tired.
"Hungry ......"
The fat man under Wang Chen's support was already so weak that he began to get a little hot, but fortunately he didn't fall down directly, otherwise, he really didn't know what to do with these more than 200 catties of meat.
"Come, drink some water first, wait until we find a suitable open space for camping, regenerate the fire and cook, you wait." In fact, they don't have anything else to eat now except for a few packets of instant noodles.
After the fat man drank some water, he felt a lot better. He also knew about his weight, so he held on to it to keep himself from falling. Leaning on Wang Chen, under his drive, he followed forward.
Xu Furong held a flashlight and walked beside the guide, in the primeval forest after the heavy rain, in addition to a stream of water vapor, there was also the smell of rotten leaves and rotten wood. It doesn't smell bad, and it tastes pretty chic.
The wooden stick in her hand gently picked up the vines in front of her, and listened to the sound of the nearby stream after the heavy rain, the soaring water made her brow furrow.
However, it seems that they are lucky, and after half an hour, a few people who are too tired to use the weak light of the flashlight to find a suitable place to set up a tent.
Wang Chen first put down the fat man who was too weak to work, took out the prepared tent, and began to set it up. The four of them brought a total of two tents, but fortunately, the guide uncle himself also had a quasi-book, three tents for five people, otherwise he really didn't know how to distribute the problem of sleeping.
After the tent is set up, spread a moisture-proof mat, and help the fat man who is tired to collapse into rest. When I came to the lit bonfire, I took out the food of a few people, and looked at a few packets of instant noodles, and several people looked not very good.
"I'll see if I can find something to eat." Put some firewood that is not too wet in front of the bonfire, and Lao Zhao's swarthy face is slightly yellow by the firelight.
In order not to eat dark food and avoid collective diarrhea tomorrow and not being able to walk, Chen Tao took the initiative to take on the task of washing simple pots and pans. Even, even a simple task as just boiling water was not allowed to come. It is conceivable that he was quite impressed by the last diarrhea.
"Fellow, let's go, I'm younger, and I have good physical strength." Wang Chen stopped Lao Zhao, who wanted to find food, and took the initiative to take on this task.
Seeing the young man in front of him take the initiative to find food, although he was very grateful, he was still a little worried: "Do you know all the wild ingredients that can be eaten?" ”
"Of course." Wang Chen nodded, and with a call fee of 98, he quickly exchanged the wild life-saving skills to the pit father's system, including the identification of some common wild ingredients.
Xu Furong sat there patting her thighs, carefully threw the dry firewood into the firewood, watched Wang Chen stand up, and took out a signal flare from her backpack casually: "Pay attention to An Qian, if you encounter any danger, remember to pull it." ”
Wang Chen packed up the flares and knives, took a few plastic bags, carried flashlights and wooden sticks, and walked directly towards the lush forest.
I don't know why, looking at Wang Chen's figure walking towards the jungle, Xu Furong suddenly felt a sense of uneasiness in her heart, and just wanted to stop it, but that feeling of uneasiness disappeared again.
By the faint light of a flashlight, he stepped on the dense dead leaves of the forest, carried a wooden stick, and opened the thorny vines. From time to time, my eyes fell on some dead wood, but unfortunately I never found fungus and fungi.
In this dark jungle, it is difficult to discern the direction. Therefore, when entering the jungle to look for ingredients, Wang Chen turned back from time to time to look at the place where there was firelight. This is the only coordinate he can identify the direction on a night like this.
However, after walking around here, I couldn't find anything to eat, thinking that there was only so little instant noodles, and there was no signal on the mobile phone in this vicinity, it was very uncomfortable to find the way, and it was even more ethereal when I waited for rescue or something. After all, it's not certain that no one knows how many of them are missing.
The flashlight shone all around, and under the faint light of the lamp, except for the thick rotting leaves, there was a deep and dense forest. However, he still found the logs that had fallen to the ground, and it seemed that there were many artificial traces here, so it should not be too far from the way out, so he could try to look deeper to see if there was anything to eat.
Because it was a primeval forest, and it had rained heavily, even if there was a road, it was no longer possible. After Wang Chen made a mark on the spot, he held up the flashlight, took the gaze in his hand, and probed in front to see if there was a place to stay.
In fact, due to the rain, the rotten leaves in the forest have become soft, and the original moss in the forest has become wet at the same time, causing some places to be very slippery. Don't look at Wang Chen walking so carefully, he still inevitably fell a few times.
After falling too many times, Wang Chen felt that his buttocks had serious internal injuries. Of course, there are benefits to falling like this, but I have become a lot more agile.
As Wang Chen continued to drill in, the surrounding vines and trees also became denser. Of course, at this time, Wang Chen also had a lot of gains, and now he brought a plastic bag with at least some fungus or something, but just how to order, but it is not enough for a few people to eat.
After looking at the marks he had left along the way, he saw that there was nothing wrong with him, and continued to walk inside.
Soon, under the dim light, I saw a lot of fungi growing nearby. I don't know if I don't see it, I was shocked when I saw it, there are still golden, purple and pink mushrooms in this world, not to mention that they are coiled together, and there are mushrooms on top of the mushrooms, mushrooms the size of bowls and plates, square-headed mushrooms......
Looking at this strange mushroom, Wang Chen's brows furrowed. These mushrooms were too gorgeous, all poisonous, and had nothing to do with the purpose of his trip.
However, since there are mushroom plants at this point, it means that there should be a lot of them nearby, and with the idea of letting everyone eat enough, Wang Chen did not give up the idea of looking for mushrooms. Finally, under a large group of pine forests, he entertained a kilogram of matsutake mushrooms that cost tens of thousands of yuan to buy on the market.
Matsutake mushroom is a kind of pure natural rare and precious edible mushroom, known as the "king of fungi", is a precious edible mushroom.
Fresh matsutake mushrooms, shaped like umbrellas, bright in color, the cap is brown, the stipe is white, there are fibrous hairy cuticles, the mushroom flesh is white and tender and thick, the texture is fine, and there is a strong special aroma.
Fresh matsutake mushrooms are stir-fried with green peppers, which are fragrant and refreshing, and very tasty.
If you cook the soup, it's also delicious. Of course, this usually goes with a little condiment. For example, half of the thick chicken soup is water, after heating, add shredded ginger, garlic slices, and green onions, and then slice the matsutake mushrooms, and after opening for 1 minute, put a little coriander on the table, and it is better to order one or two drops of sesame oil.
Of course, Wang Chen didn't have chicken soup or anything, so they could only boil some soup casually, and then put some oil and salt to make it simply.
During this period, Wang Chen searched carefully, wanting to find root ginseng or something to boil soup with matsutake mushrooms to make up for the fat man who had collapsed. It's a pity that the sticks are there, and the ginseng is not found.
"Buzz ......"
Just as Wang Chen turned around and wanted to follow the mark he left behind, there was a sudden buzzing sound behind him.
I'll go! It wouldn't be so unlucky, would it?
At this time, a gust of wind hit behind him, and before he had time to think about it, Wang Chen rushed out directly.
