Yin You didn't argue with them and put the fishhook into the water again. Bai Shan and Man Bao couldn't help but turn their heads and look. They couldn't help it, the movement was really a bit loud.
I saw that the originally quiet water surface became lively with a lot of fish flapping around where the hooks were placed. Wouldn't it be fun to use driftwood at all?
As a result, Yin Ore remained motionless. After waiting for a long time, the fish had enough joy and the water surface gradually became calm. You can still see many fish swimming around under the lake surface.
Yin Huo was still talking to the two of them, "Are you going to fish here soon?"
Seeing that he had no intention of lifting the hook, Bai Shan and Man Bao didn't ask any more questions. They shook their heads and said, "We are going to the Gobi to take a look. Do you want to go?"
Yin You turned his head and glanced at the bright sunshine outside the woods, shook his head, "You go ahead."
Riding a horse in such a strong sun makes me feel hot just thinking about it, so forget it.
Yin You slowly raised the fishing rod, and sure enough, the bait was gone again, so he continued to feed Changshou.
Changshou sighed and took the bait without complaint. In fact, he wanted to tell the young master that he could throw the remaining bait into the lake to feed the fish, which would save a lot of effort.
But what Yin Or wants to enjoy is obviously the process of feeding the fish, rather than simply the results.
Beside the mat, the guards were watching the fire. There was a jar hanging on the fire. The guards explained: "Our young master didn't want to eat snacks and cakes, so he asked the younger one to cut fish fillets and make porridge."
Man Bao asked curiously, "Can he catch fish?"
The guard said: "Mr. Zhuang left it before he left."
Man Bao couldn't help but sigh at Mr.'s thoughtfulness.
The guards' skills were average. They would only fillet the fish and marinate it, then cook the porridge until it was half-cooked before adding the fish. To avoid the fishy smell, they also added several pieces of dried ginger.
Now that the porridge and fish had been simmering for a while, the aroma wafted out. The guards opened it and took a look. They thought it was ready to eat, so they took out the salt and put some in it after careful consideration.
Man Bao looked at it and said, "Not enough?"
The guard took some more with a spoon and put it in, then looked at her.
Man Bao was not sure, "It should be enough."
So the guard stirred it up and took out bowls to serve them the porridge.
Man Bao took a bite, and the fish meat had already fallen apart, and it didn't have the smooth and tender feeling that my sister-in-law made.
Bai Shan and Yin You didn't say anything after taking a bite. The taste was indeed average, but it was still edible.
So the three of them finished the can of porridge.
Bai Shandao: "We are going to the Gobi."
Yin or lazily said, "Why don't you take a break?"
Bai Shan took a look at the sky outside and shook his head, "No, we want to go out for a walk."
He turned back to Yin You and said, "I'll leave this to you. We may not go back here in the afternoon and go directly back to the town."
Yin You nodded nonchalantly, "I'll go back by myself when I've had enough fun."
Man Bao put on a curtain hat and left the lake with Bai Shan. This time Daji did not follow them by himself, but also brought two other guards. The remaining guards stayed behind to protect Yin or.
The two of them ran for about half an hour before reaching the desert that looked very close.
In the middle of the journey, Manbao stopped his horse and went to dig up two kinds of plants with a hoe.
When they arrived at the Gobi Desert, Koko started ringing jingle bells, and after finishing the ringing, he said, "Ring it again to prevent the host from forgetting."
Man Bao didn't really listen to what it said, and just looked at the things on the Gobi with a "wow" sound.
There was a kind of tree that was taller than her, but it was covered with thorns, but it was green all over. Man Bao was amazed, "I've never seen it before."
Bai Shan hadn't seen it either. He rode his horse forward, but didn't dare to get too close. He thought it would be very painful if he was pricked by the thorns on it.
The two dismounted and handed Chi Ji and Robber Li to the guards. They went closer to take a look. They carefully reached out and touched them. Then they looked at the shiny thorns on them and said, "If you get stuck, it will definitely hurt."
Manbao had already learned some information about this plant from Keke and said: "Not only will it hurt, it may also cause death."
Bai Shan tilted his head, "Death?"
"He will die if the wound worsens." Manbao took two steps back, looked down at his surroundings, and became worried, "It's too big." It's hard to dig.
Daji on the side was very frightened, "Miss Man, do you want to dig this?"
It's not difficult to dig them out, but the hard part is how to bring them back.
Keke: "... Just cut off a piece. This thing is easy to survive. In fact, there are cultivated species in our world, but now its genes are very old, so it needs to be included."
Manbao coughed lightly and said to Daji: "Just check everything and check the situation. Let's take a look around. You don't need to follow closely."
Daji did not leave, however. He felt that this place was no better than the lake. Not far away was the desert. There were also many unseen bugs under the Gobi, especially scorpions. Who knew if he would encounter poisonous ones?
Man Bao's attitude was not tough. He took out his dagger and looked at it but didn't want to part with it. The main reason was that this knife was used to cut things for food. Now that she had cut these messy things, she felt that she would not be able to use it to cut meat next time.
So I borrowed a knife from a guard.
She walked around it with the knife, and then carefully cut it twice with the knife. It did not fall. Man Bao wrapped his hand with linen, then carefully lifted it up, and then cut it with the knife.
For the final connection, put it in the medicine basket, then stand on tiptoes to see the cut surface.
Bai Shan looked at it and said, "It's moist, so if you're very thirsty in the desert, can you eat this?"
Manbao was not sure, so he asked Keke, who searched for information in the encyclopedia and said: "According to the information, the existing prickly pear is edible. It has high potassium, high calcium, low sodium, and no oxalic acid.
Sugar, flavonoids, polysaccharides and other substances. The nutrients contained in it are not only higher than common plants and fruits, but also higher than some meat, eggs and fish. It is a very healthy food."
Man Bao said: "But?"
"But the cactus scanned so far are all primitive species. Some contain toxic flavonoids in their bodies, and some contain harmful ingredients such as mescaline and anchaline, which have a hallucinogenic and narcotic effect on human nerves."
Manbao's eyes lit up, "Is it anesthetic?"
Her eyes were fixed on these things with long thorns. She reached out and touched them gently and said regretfully: "It's a pity that there is no usage and dosage. Is this thing easy to preserve? Can it be saved for future research?"
Keke said: "We still need research in the research laboratory. We should be able to find something when we wait for the included entries to appear."
But it also depends on luck. Some research laboratories will put it on the entry if they study this aspect. If the laboratory does not study this aspect, then there is nothing you can do.
Man Bao said in his heart: "Then I will give some to Teacher Mo and Dr. D. Maybe they will be interested? And since the toxins they contain are different, obviously many cactus species that look almost the same are also different.
That’s considered another type, right? Will they be distinguished when collecting them?”
