Because this side is not too far away from the hillside there. In addition, Li Tao also collected a lot of banana leaves, so we crossed slowly instead. Of course, I also hope that there will be some gains along the way.
Maybe God was kind to me, but I found a large piece of fungus on a huge dead tree. I quickly scraped it off, but unexpectedly, I saw another piece of mushroom near the root of the tree!
"People say you are lucky, and I think it is true!" Li Tao was very happy at this time, because I said these mushrooms are not poisonous and can be eaten as long as they are cooked. Naturally, she was a little greedy!
"Maybe! At least the people who followed me haven't starved to death or those cruel things have happened!" I didn't avoid it, and of course I didn't deliberately exaggerate it, but I still gave her some confidence!
Then in the last section, we had no further harvest. But when we came back, looking at the things we brought, it really caused a sensation here. As for our delay for so long, it was normal to travel through the rainforest, and it was naturally eliminated.
Everyone is confused!
Baolin looked at our harvest and watched Lanfang leading people to sort fungus and mushrooms. He took the initiative to come over and said to us: "It may be troublesome to cook these foods without water, but I also found some clues.
Do you know if we can go get some together?"
Lan Fang looked at me nervously: "Ah Jing, the water consumption here is a little less, so cooking is really troublesome! If it's not far away, you can try it, after all, it's going to be dark soon!"
"If this continues, there are so many people, and something will happen sooner or later!" Looking at Shen Xuewen and Ding Laosan, Bao Lin seemed to be very keen, so his voice was not loud.
Maybe Li Tao didn't come close to me when she saw Bao Lin next to me, but what made me a little strange was that she didn't go to Zhong Qianting and the others, but stayed beside Lan Fang to help clean up.
"You can check it out. If these foods can be made, it will definitely be good for everyone!" I looked at Pauling, but I didn't ponder much, but expressed my interest!
Baolin gave Lan Lan a wink, and Tang Tang wanted to follow me for the first time. Because Baolin said it wasn't far, I took Tang Tang with me. Sure enough, it was less than a hundred or two hundred meters away, and Baolin quickly found two more trees.
Water palm trees.
Because it is indeed not coming from this way, it is really difficult to find the trees growing here and there. There are many other tropical plants on the side. In order to prevent accidents, Pauling carefully chopped open these plants with a knife and looked at the exposed plants.
The palm trees came and we looked at each other and laughed.
This kind of plant, which is not uncommon, can store an astonishing amount of water in its branches. Many indigenous people in this area often rely on drinking the water here in the rain forest.
Pauling started to cut open a leaf stem, and sure enough he saw a lot of water flowing out. Although he drank a few big sips, he obviously also wasted a lot. Of course, we also stepped forward to take a few sips one after another, and we felt that there was a lot of water flowing out.
It smells like a light drink.
Because he was sure there was water, Baolin asked Lan Lan to go back and continue to find our people to get bamboo tubes. At the same time, he also sent a message to use our original water to clean the fungus and mushrooms, and by the way, set up the pot to prepare food!
Here I took out Tangtang's quiver and found a bamboo arrow made by Luo Xiaoshan. Although I knew it was a waste, I cut off the arrow shaft and inserted it into the stem of the palm tree with a small bamboo pole. Sure enough,
The filtered rainwater stored inside flows out like a faucet turned on!
We went over and picked up the water, which was enough for six bamboo tubes. When we came back with the water, we were naturally a little excited! I thought that Paulin would not give it to Ding Li, but I didn't expect that he didn't deliberately give it to Shen Xuewen and Ding Li.
On Lishou's side, one person was given a bamboo tube of water!
In fact, we didn't have much water left, but we each divided into two bamboo tubes. But Pauling's calm behavior made me a little surprised!
These women have been here for more than ten days at least, and they have obviously learned a lot of survival skills! The mushrooms they just prepared weighed more than a kilogram, big and small. After they cleaned them up, they scalded them on hot stones to soften them.
Then they were put into pots and boiled in water.
Obviously, this not only saved time, but also a lot of water. Ou Xiang was even smarter and started washing the fungus and mushrooms with water. Naturally, she didn't waste it. She found someone's underwear, filtered the water directly, and kept it.
Come down and continue cooking!
I didn't make a fuss, but when I looked at that piece of close-fitting clothing, I felt a little familiar. Finally I couldn't help but look at it twice more, and realized it was the one that Li Tao had started to clean! I felt a bit dumbfounded, so I couldn't help but look at it more.
Li Tao glanced at me twice, and she gave me a ruthless look!
They could only pretend not to know. When they smelled the aroma of the food here, Shen Xuewen and Ding Laosan naturally came over unceremoniously. Although they didn't directly ask for food, they watched Xiao Min cut off the bacon.
When the fragrance became stronger, Lao Ge couldn't help but squeak!
"This smells so good. It's great to have a woman in the team!" Lao Ge didn't take any exception at all. He even turned a blind eye to Shen Xuewen's wry smile and smiled at Xiao Min: "Xiao Min, we are all together now. We are eating together.
Prepare one for us too!”
"These foods really need to be eaten by everyone, but now they are obviously not enough!" I saw Xiao Min looking at me and understood what she meant, so I said to Shen Xuewen: "Brother Wen, look at this, now
It’s not completely dark yet, so let everyone look for wild vegetables around and cook them to satisfy their hunger!”
"Let's go and look for it!" Professor Ding Li didn't know whether it was because he was flexible or because he really saw that Shen Xuewen didn't say a word. Seeing that there were really not many ingredients on display here. Even if he wanted to take a bite, he couldn't.
I can only turn around and leave with a sullen face!
Since Aneng and the others have not been seen for the time being, the safety of the camp has become a problem. Of course, it is impossible to go all out to find wild vegetables, leaving the woman named Qingfang and Shen Xuewen here untouched.
"Brother Wen, these mushrooms look fine, but after all, there are some weird things here, and there is still a lack of water here, so I suggest that a few people try them first, and let the rest dry for a while first!" I asked Lan Fang to hold them!
He took some of it and brought it to Shen Xuewen.
"I'm not afraid of death, why don't I try it first?" Qingfang was obviously not embarrassed. She looked at me with a smile and shouted to Ma Lihua: "Lihua, bring some here and let me try it for everyone first."
Try it!”
Her words were indeed speechless. Fortunately, no one cared about it. Pauling and I each arranged people to stand around and patrol. Because there was still some time before dark, I stayed on the stone side first.
, sat down and prepared to take a rest, pretending not to hear what Qingfang said!
Because it was not Ma Lihua's turn to eat, others ignored her. However, Shen Xuewen nodded slightly and saw that there was only a little bit of food, so she just ate it!
