Ye Fu wasn't ready to sleep anymore, so she went back to the wooden house to get two bamboo baskets and threw one to Jiang Run.
"You have been too energetic during this period." Jiang Run took the bamboo basket and said quietly.
Ye Fu chuckled, "Do you want to see me half dead? Stop talking nonsense and dig mushrooms for me. These are delicious food."
Hearing the word "delicious food", Jiang Run finally became energetic.
"Do you want to tell everyone?"
"Okay, tomorrow, let's dig some tonight." Ye Fu felt happy, as if there were many mushrooms waving to her. As the first person to discover mushrooms, she had to dig more.
Jiang Run looked at her excited back, smiled helplessly, and squatted down to dig with her.
Mushrooms that grow in the sand are different from those that grow in the mountains. They look like a pile of foam boards, without moisture and covered with sand. The mushrooms with open umbrellas are a bit old, but Ye Fu did not throw them away.
Collected.
In the yard alone, the two of them dug two bamboo baskets. The more Ye Fu dug, the happier he became, and he lay down in the soil.
Mushrooms can be dried and preserved and can be eaten in two or three years, or they can be boiled in oil and made into meals.
Many recipes have automatically appeared in Ye Fu's mind, and yes, you can also make soup.
From digging in the yard to the road outside, in the grass and woods, it was almost dawn, and all the bamboo baskets and baskets in the house were full. Although Ye Fu didn't want to go back yet, he was forcefully dragged back by Jiang Run.
"It should be easy to clean, Jiang Rong. At noon, we can stir-fry pork slices with mushrooms, stew chicken soup, and stir-fry mushrooms with bamboo shoots. How about that?"
What else? Under the food guide, Jiang Run went to clean the mushrooms obediently.
This kind of desert mushroom tastes no worse than the mushrooms in the mountains. On the contrary, it is quite delicious, and the stewed soup is even more delicious. Jiang Run has been completely convinced by this time, both for Ye Fu and delicious food.
In the afternoon, Ye Fu fried all the cleaned mushrooms and sliced meat. After frying, he put it in a basin, sealed it with plastic wrap, and finally put it into the space.
In the evening, Ye Fu slept for a few hours and asked Jiang Run to tell Qi Yuan and the others about the mushrooms. When it got dark at ten o'clock, she went out again with a bamboo basket and a small hoe. Jiang Run could only follow and listened without complaint.
She directs.
However, there were a lot of people digging for mushrooms tonight. Lin Siran and An An trotted up to Ye Fu, and were so excited that they almost knocked Ye Fu down.
"Aunt Xiaoye."
Ye Fu touched An An's round head and asked, "Did An An miss me?"
"think."
"He, he talks about you in my ears every day, Ye Fu, you are so amazing, you can actually find mushrooms from the sand, is it really edible?"
"Okay, it's not poisonous. Jiang Run and I ate it today, and it's delicious. It can be fried, boiled, or fried."
Lin Siran's face was full of excitement, "Then let's dig quickly. After Jiang Run told us, we came over without washing the dishes, but Wan Tao and others also told us that there will be more people later."
Ye Fu smiled and said, "It's okay. Everyone will know it sooner or later anyway, and you can dig the outside. The mushrooms will grow again after you dig them. Let's go and work."
Even An An took a small cloth bag, dug out the mushrooms and put them in the bag.
There is a little moonlight tonight, and you can slightly see the mushrooms in the sand without wearing night vision glasses. Ye Fu and Lin Siran talked about the techniques of digging mushrooms, and Qi Yuan and Fang Wei also came.
"Ye Fu, what does a mushroom look like?"
Ye Fu took out a bunch of mushrooms from the bamboo basket and handed it to him. There was sand on it, and a bit of white could be seen vaguely.
"Why does it look so much like Ma Bu Pao?" Ma Bu Pao's scientific name is puffball.
"No, this is called a desert mushroom. When you step on it, it will explode into brown powder. This mushroom is cut the same as the king oyster mushroom."
Qi Yuan picked it up and smelled it, "It really smells like mushrooms."
Others also gathered around. Ye Fu showed everyone the mushrooms and taught them how to find mushrooms and how to dig them. Everyone was very excited and held sticks and shovels eager to dig.
Ye Fu looked around and saw that Wan Tao, Liu Zhang and Secretary Huang were all here. It seemed that everyone attached great importance to the food that finally appeared.
Ye Fu also squatted down and searched carefully, and soon found another flower.
The fastest was Jiang Run. His eyes were unaffected in the dark, and he had a good nose. He didn’t need to search carefully at all. Soon his bamboo basket was full. With the envious eyes of others, he picked up another diabolo.
The basket continues to dig.
Because there were too many people, everyone except Jiang Run only dug five or six kilograms, but this harvest was quite a lot.
After Ye Fu's bamboo basket was full, she and Jiang Run went back. After being busy for several days, Ye Fu was also a little tired.
"Sometimes I feel that God wants everyone to die, but sometimes I feel that God always gives us another way to survive when we are desperate and have no way out. Do you think this is strange?"
Officer Song always said that there is no perfect path for everyone, Ye Fu thought, this is what he meant.
When the land is blown by sand, plants wither, and animals die from heat, edible mushrooms actually emerge from the soil.
——
Residents began to leave the safe zone to dig mushrooms outside. The temperature was still high during the day, and there were only a few hours of darkness at night when they could leave their homes and search for food.
The water diversion bamboo poles need to be cleaned of sand and soil that has fallen inside them every week. Residents digging for mushrooms are sometimes lucky enough to pick up small animals that bump into them.
Ye Fu also went out several times. Food is never too much for a person.
For the residents of the safe zone, the time at night is especially precious and no minute can be wasted. Everyone, whether they are the elderly or children, must go out to dig mushrooms.
It’s worth saving up a little bit, and everyone has personally experienced the feeling of being hungry.
Fortunately, there are still no signs of drying up in the ponds in the mountains. Ye Fu and Jiang Run went to check it out once and found that the ponds were still full. However, when they went there, there happened to be a snake bathing in the water. The two of them suddenly appeared.
The snake was so frightened that it instinctively attacked Ye Fu, but Jiang Chun pinched him seven inches and killed him with one move.
Ye Fu looked at the snake, which was as thick as two fists, and wondered whether it was poisonous and whether it could be eaten.
The trees and bamboos around the pond are growing well because there is no shortage of water. Ye Fu walked around the mountain. Although grass has grown, the wind and sand are too strong, so the defense is not very successful, but it is better than nothing.
On the way back, Ye Fu kept staring at Jiang Run's hand and the snake in his hand.
This snake looks very bright and mottled. After thinking about it for a long time, I still can't think of a name for this snake.
Ye held a bamboo basket and a small hoe in his armrest. When he saw mushrooms, he dug them up. Originally he just came out to look at the ponds in the mountains, but he didn't expect to get a lot of harvest.
As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the safe area, Ye Fu saw several people scratching around in the grass under the moonlight.
Seeing the mushrooms in Ye Fu's bamboo basket, several people boldly left the safe area and went to the sandy land outside to continue digging for mushrooms.
