Su Yuanyuan was listening on the side. The family's character was quite good and they didn't have any bad intentions.
"Okay, don't worry, I will definitely ask you. In fact, every household here has them, but they are all reserved for their own families."
After breakfast, Lin Gensheng took Wei Guangxiang and Zeng Yixin to buy guns. Zhan Yunzhao didn't know how to do that, so he and Zeng Hongling were ready to buy hatchets from others.
The three of them prepared it at home. Most mountaineers would bring dry food with them when they go up the mountain. Su Yuanyuan has already given them fifty pounds of corn flour and fifty pounds of white flour, so that the five of them can eat here for a while. If not, just give them money.
Mainly, I can't carry so many people. I still have to change my back with several people along the way.
What the Lin family prepared for them was steamed buns and pickles. They all had their own kettles.
Everything was ready, and the two of them came back with guns, which were self-made shotguns with very strong recoil.
"Uncle, if we don't come back at night, you don't have to look for us. There will be no danger for the five of us together."
"I know this. It usually takes us ten days and a half to go up the mountain."
They brought some noodles, cornmeal, and a small pot. Lin Gensheng also told them where there was water.
The five people set off. Su Yuanyuan and Zeng Hongling also brought coats, but there was nothing they could do because it was cold at night.
In fact, Su Yuanyuan thought that it would be much more convenient if she did it herself.
All you see along the way are big trees, but there are also paths taken by mountain people.
"Did we bring too little food?" Zeng Hongling asked Su Yuanyuan.
"No, we can also hunt prey, don't worry. We won't starve."
"Barbecue? Yuanyuan, have you brought any seasonings?"
"I have it in my backpack, don't worry, you won't be hungry."
The two girls were walking in the middle. Su Yuanyuan's consciousness had already been released. She had seen some pictures of medicinal materials in Taoist temples, but they were all medicinal materials from the south.
However, Zhan Yunzhao and the other three should have seen the introduction of medicinal materials from the north in their study, and I hope they can find them.
Su Yuanyuan now knows what ginseng leaves look like.
She thought that if she was too young, she would take some into her own space. In fact, she didn’t need too much, as long as she had enough.
Wei Guangxiang is leading the way. He is a very cautious person.
"We are walking on the road that others have walked. I think the possibility of finding ginseng is very small." said Zeng Hongling and Wei Guangxiang in front.
"Let's go to the top of the mountain first and then look for it slowly."
Anyway, Su Yuanyuan didn't find any ginseng until they reached the top of the mountain. It was already noon.
"You guys rest, I'll go see if there are any wild animals. It's time for us to eat."
"I'm with you."
It felt better for the two men to go out. Zhan Yunzhao began to collect firewood, and the two girls sat aside to rest. They were indeed quite tired.
"Yuanyuan, it must be dangerous if we spend the night outside, right?"
Su Yuanyuan also remembered the time they met a wolf in Shushan.
"There is definitely danger. Lin Gensheng told us about the cave. Let's try our best to go there at night. It will be safer that way."
Zeng Hongling is actually still afraid of wild animals on the mountain. Last time two people were injured, she was almost seriously injured.
The two rested for a while, then went to a pond to have a look. There should be animals here often coming to drink water.
"I wonder if the water here is drinkable? I came here to drink it." Zeng Hongling was a little disgusted.
"There's nothing we can do about it, but once it's boiled it should be fine."
"It's best like this. In these deep mountains and old forests, who knows what dangers there may be. If you eat too much, you'll be in trouble."
"I'm bringing medicine and a compass. Why don't you come with me next time? I actually want to go up the mountain by myself."
"That's definitely not possible. What are you thinking? The mountain is so dangerous. How can I trust you to go up the mountain alone?"
Su Yuanyuan knew it would be like this, so she never said it.
The two brought back the water in a small pot, and Zhan Yunzhao was already lighting a fire.
It seems that this Taoist Master Zhan also has experience in living in the wild. He built a simple stove with three stones, lit a fire, put a pot on it and boiled water.
Hearing the sound of the gun, they knew that the two of them had caught prey. This way they didn't have to eat dry steamed buns.
Ten minutes later, the water in the pot had boiled. At this time, Wei Guangxiang and the others came back.
"Good guy, what is this? A wild goat? You actually hit a wild goat on the top of the mountain?" Zeng Hongling rushed over excitedly.
"Yeah, there's a group of them. Let's go and clean them up."
Each of the five of them has a dagger in his hand, which is used for self-defense. Of course, it is also suitable for hunting down prey.
"First get a leg and let's braise it." Zeng Hongling called from behind.
"No, the leg of lamb should be roasted."
Now they are not in a hurry to pick ginseng, they should satisfy their craving first.
About a quarter of an hour later, Wei Guangxiang delivered half a fan of mutton. At this time, Su Yuanyuan had already found a relatively flat stone so that it could be used as a cutting board.
The front legs and hind legs are used to roast, and the ribs are used to stew.
The pot is not big, it is a whole pot. Zhan Yunzhao also picked some peppercorns and put them in it to remove the fishy smell.
Wei Guangxiang had already lit the fire again and was roasting the leg of lamb. In fact, they couldn't eat this lamb at all. But they were ready to roast it so that they could take it with them so that they wouldn't have to hunt at night.
More than an hour later, the five of them had their meal. They brought their own chopsticks and everyone had their lunch boxes. This was the real mutton stew. The fishy smell was still very strong, but only Su Yuanyuan couldn't adapt to it, and the rest
All four of us ate very deliciously.
This roasted leg of lamb still tastes very good because of the thirteen spices. Su Yuanyuan thought it was just missing the chili powder and cumin powder, otherwise it would taste even better.
The other half of the fan is also separated in this way and grilled on the fire. This is prepared to be taken on the road to eat at night.
Su Yuanyuan looked at Zeng Hongling's delicious food and was still thinking that after three days, she would never eat so deliciously.
Today the five of us spent three hours just resting and eating.
Su Yuanyuan smiled and told the four of them, "Don't force anything. Let's just look for it leisurely on the mountain. It's our luck to find it. It's normal if we can't find it."
"Yuanyuan, you are so thoughtful."
"Then what can we do? We already said it on the road when we came here. If we can't get it, we just buy it. How big of a deal can it be?"
Zhan Yunzhao also nodded: "Xiao Su is right, everything is destined by God, let's not force it."
