Portable space

Fan Ming followed Zhang Taiping's fingers and looked up at the top of his head. The sunlight formed a double shadow on the tree. He couldn't see what it was for a while, so he asked strangely: "What is it?"

"Can't you see?" Zhang Taiping asked.

She changed her position to miss the double shadow formed by the sun on the tree, and she covered her brow with her hand to see what was above it.Some gourd-like vines are twined between the trees, with eggs the size of eggs hanging from them.

"Is this also a kind of wild fruit?" Fan Ming asked, blinking.

Before Zhang Taiping could answer, the little baby shouted out: "This is Bali bomb!"

Naturally, Fan Ming had never heard of this name, nor had he seen this thing before, so he asked Zhang Taiping, "Brother, what kind of fruit is Bali fried?"

As for the name of the people in the mountains, Zhang Taiping is not very clear about its scientific name, so he spread his hands and said, "That's what the people in the mountains call it. As for what it looks like, you'll know what it looks like after you pick it off." Put a lot of things on the ground, and then take a long pole with a hook to hook down the tall vines.

After the vines fell to the ground, Fan Ming and the children gathered around to check. Fan Ming picked one off and asked, "Brother, why did it all explode?"

Zhang Taiping replied with a smile: "Bali fried, it means it's ripe when it explodes."

"Oh." Fan Ming looked at the little dolls around him, followed their example and broke off the shell that had exploded, and put the pulp inside into his mouth.Both taste and taste are a bit like bananas.

Zhang Taiping pulled down a few more vines, then stopped and said: "This thing is not durable to storage, especially after it is ripe, it will be broken after a day or two of vines, so just pick less and try it."

Just when a group of people, including Zhang Taiping, gathered around the vines to pick up Balibo, the three big dogs suddenly barked in one direction.

Zhang Taiping immediately became vigilant, this time he went into the mountain with so many children, it would be bad if something happened, the knife appeared in the palm of his hand.My mind has turned a few times in the blink of an eye, and I have made a decision. If it is really a pack of wolves, I will definitely use the gun in the space.

After hearing the roar of the big dog, Xiao Zi and the big-tailed squirrel quickly climbed up the tree and stood vigilant on the tree.But Xiaoxi flew out of Zhang Taiping's pocket and flew towards the direction where the ghost faces and the others were roaring to check the situation.

Before Xiao Xifei came back, Ah Huang and the lion rushed over, only the grimace was still guarding Zhang Taiping's side.

Zhang Taiping was afraid that something would happen to the two big dogs, so he also followed, but he didn't let a group of little dolls here, so he let them follow the lion and Ah Huang by his side.At this moment, the little dolls also knew that something had happened, they followed closely beside Zhang Taiping and stopped running around.

Not far away, Ah Huang and the lion roared. Hearing their not-so-tense roars, one knew that they were not in danger. At least it meant that they had not met wolves, so Zhang Taiping's heart was half relieved.

Then he shook his head with a wry smile and said to himself: "If you really care about it, you will be in chaos. Isn't this why a pack of wolves suddenly appeared in the deep mountains." The main reason is that he led a large group of helpless little dolls, With a heavy burden of responsibility on his body, when encountering a problem, he first thinks of the worst situation.

Xiaoxi flew over and landed on Zhang Taiping's shoulder, flapped her wings lightly a few times, and then combed her feathers.From its reaction, Zhang Taiping knew that there should be no danger ahead, so he was relieved, but he still maintained the vigilance he should have when walking in the mountains.

Turn around a few big trees and come to a slightly open place.Seeing the scene in the field, Zhang Taiping was completely relieved.

Speaking of which, Zhang Taiping has met this big guy in the field several times, so he is considered an old acquaintance.But this time there is an extra kid.

The big black blind man with crescent-shaped white hair on his chest was followed by a small black blind man, who also had a crescent moon mark on his chest.The little black blind man hid behind the big black blind man and dared not show his face amid the roar of the lion and Ah Huang.

Lion and Ah Huang walked around the blind man looking for the best attack position, and the big blind man inside also opened his mouth fiercely.

"Lion! Ah Huang!" After Zhang Taiping came over, he stopped them from attacking.

"Ah! It's the black blind man!" Fan Ming's expression was a little joyful, "It's a pity that I didn't bring a camera this time."

The other children were not like this, Yaya approached and pulled the corner of Zhang Taiping's clothes.

"It's a black blind man." The voices of the little dolls began to tremble, because they had heard many terrible legends about black blind men at home. If they let them lick their faces and noses, they would be gone.

Zhang Taiping patted Yaya's hand and said: "Dad is here, don't be afraid." Then he let Yaya let go of the hem of her clothes, although he knew that this black blind man would not do anything after seeing him .The biggest possibility is to turn around and run away, but it can't let it rush over suddenly, so I didn't let Yaya pull me to avoid inconvenience.

When the big black blind man saw Zhang Taiping, he stood up with his forelegs off the ground and leaned on his hind legs. He yelled at Zhang Taiping, then turned around and ran into the woods, followed closely by the little black blind man.

Shi Shi and Ah Huang wanted to pursue, but Zhang Taiping stopped them.Zhang Taiping meant to embarrass the two blind men, one big and one small, and he didn't explore why they came to Shanbianzi at this time.

After the blind man left, the little dolls became active again, chirping and discussing what they had just seen.Now I will have the capital to show off after I go back, he is black and blind, and I have met two, and I will be envious of my friends who have not come when I go back and talk about it.

"The lion and Ah Huang are so powerful!" A little doll exclaimed, "Even the blind men are scared, so they scared them away!"

Listening to the children's discussion, Zhang Taiping smiled and said to them: "From now on, you will follow me and don't run around, you know? Otherwise, I will drag you into the mountains and eat you blind."

The little dolls were still very scared when they heard Zhang Taiping's words, they all nodded and surrounded Zhang Taiping, only Fan Ming was casually looking at the situation in this small space.

Picking up a round object from the ground, he asked Zhang Taiping, "Brother, what is this?"

Zhang Taiping looked at the tree where the big and small blind men were just now, and said, "This is hickory." There were still some scattered on the ground, which must have been knocked down by the blind man rubbing or beating on the tree just now.

"Walnuts are not like this." Fan Ming asked strangely, "Aren't the walnuts I've seen all covered with pockmarked faces?"

Zhang Taiping said: "Those are walnuts that have been peeled after ripening, but these are unpeeled."

"Is there a layer of skin on the outside?"

Zhang Taiping nodded.

Fan Ming stuck out her tongue and said, "I thought walnuts looked like bumps on the tree." Then he looked around to find a stone to break open to have a look.

"If the green water from the green skin stains your hands, the whole hand will turn black and ugly, and it won't wash off for a long time. Be careful when you smash the green skin, and it's best not to let it splash on your face. .” Zhang Taiping said with a smile.

"That's it." Fan Ming took a look at the walnut in his hand, weighed it and said, "Forget it."

Fan Ming didn't dare, but it doesn't mean that a group of little dolls didn't dare either. They found a stone from the side and squatted on the ground and smashed the green skin off.For Fan Ming who was watching, the little hands that were stained with green water turned black in the wind.

A little doll peeled it open, took out the white walnut kernels inside, and handed a piece to Fan Ming, and then handed a piece to Yaya and Zhang Taiping.

Fan Ming put it directly in his mouth, chewed it a few times, then frowned and said, "Why is it bitter?"

Zhang Taiping replied: "The top layer of skin will become tasteless after drying, but it is really bitter when it is newly planted, so it should be peeled off when eating."

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Zhang Taiping spread his hands and said, "I thought you knew."

Two more children broke open the walnuts and handed them to Zhang Taiping, saying: "Uncle handsome, the wild walnuts are ripe too, let's break some more walnuts."

Zhang Taiping said: "Okay!" He went straight over and kicked hard on the thick and peach trees, and some mature ones fell down one after another.

There are many aliases for hickory nuts. The production area calls hickory nuts "mountain crabs" because "nuclei" and "crabs" are similar in dialect.People in Changhua also call hickory nuts "Daming Fruit", and there is a story about Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Bowen in it.

In the Guanzhong area, it is called wild walnut, and it is widely distributed throughout the Qinling Mountains.When talking about the wild walnuts in the Qinling Mountains, we have to talk about the walnuts in Shangluo.

It is said that Shangluo walnuts were brought back from the Western Regions by Zhang Qian in the Western Han Dynasty and planted in Chang'an, Kyoto. However, the "Land of Dragon and Phoenix" was not suitable for the growth and development of walnuts, so they were dispatched to Shangluo Mountain.Unexpectedly, Walnut got a blessing in disguise, and found a treasure land to settle down, make a fortune and prosper the family, and thus multiplied and became a prosperous family.Its distribution is wide, the number of plants is large, the output is huge, the quality is excellent, and the varieties and strains are rich. It ranks first in the whole province and ranks first in the country.

The climate, rain, and soil in the Shangluo mountain area are most suitable for the growth of walnuts, and they have unique natural conditions.What's more, the mountain people are hardworking and simple, relying on mountains to raise mountains, planting trees for joy, and regard walnuts as treasures, which are extremely precious.Therefore, the distribution of walnuts here is very wide, no matter in the deep mountains, valleys, hills, or plains, walnuts grow everywhere.As the folk song says: "Walnut slope, walnut ditch, walnut piercing, walnut road, walnut trees all over the mountains, and walnuts touch people's heads."

Hickory nuts can not only be used for eating, but also have great cultural value.Small pecans will leave different marks in the eyes of different people.In the eyes of gourmets, hickory is a delicacy; in the eyes of businessmen, hickory can be sold for money; in the eyes of pharmacists, hickory can be used as medicine;

Ai Qing, a famous poet, once wrote: "One by one is like a copper cast / engraved with oracle bone inscriptions / also like boxwood carvings / exquisite and transparent, endless changes / I don’t know if it’s a dialogue between heaven and earth / or wind, rain and thunder. call to arms"

When the poet wrote "Hickory Nut", he did not write about the flesh wrapped in its bones, but rewritten the pattern of the hickory nut, which is naturally formed.Because the poet appreciates this pattern very much, and this pattern arouses the poet's emotions.Moreover, there are still a group of people in the world who regard this as a hobby. In their eyes, the lines on the hickory can change everything and have great value.

And the medicinal value of hickory nut is huge and immeasurable.

According to the "Compendium of Materia Medica", pecans are sweet in taste and flat in nature, can nourish qi and blood, regulate dryness and resolve phlegm, warm and nourish the kidney and lung, and relieve asthma.Eating hickory nuts often can nourish blood vessels, increase appetite, black beard and hair, and can also cure sexual dysfunction, neurasthenia, memory loss and other diseases. Therefore, there is a proverb among the people that "eat walnut oil often, and the white-haired old man plays with yaks".

Hickory nuts have nourishing and health-preserving functions for people of all ages. Pregnant women eating more are beneficial to the bone development of the fetus; children eating regularly are beneficial to growth and development, enhancing memory, and protecting eyesight; young people eating regularly can make their bodies healthy and their skin smooth ; Middle-aged and elderly people often eat it, which can protect the heart, nourish the lungs, improve intelligence and prolong life.

Therefore, compared with home walnuts, hickory nuts are even better in terms of nutrition and value.The domestic walnuts on the market cost more than 20 yuan a catty, but the hickory nuts are sold for 45 yuan a catty.

After kicking the huge walnut tree twice, Zhang Taiping saw that there were no more walnuts falling, so he picked up a pole to reach some down from above. Recalling the huge value of hickory nuts for all ages, he didn't mind hooking down more.

Fan Ming asked while helping to pick up the scattered walnuts on the ground: "Brother, how do you get rid of the green leather belt when you go home? You can't take it off one by one with your hands and finally make your hands black?"

Zhang Taiping shook his head with a smile and said: "If there are too many of them, it will naturally not be like this. I want to bury them in the sand or soil for a period of time after I go back. There is a substance on the green skin that is easy to rot. It takes a few days. It can make the green skin turn black and fade away, and finally you only need to take it out and dry it in the sun."

"Let me just say, there must be an easy way." Fan Ming said with a smile.

After picking up the walnuts, there were two more big bags, but this was not too much weight for Zhang Taiping, it was just a thicker tree trunk to carry it.

In order to protect the safety of these little dolls, Zhang Taiping kept three big dogs around all the time, so there was no such thing as catching rabbits or pheasants.

When leaving the mountain, Fan Ming suddenly remembered something, turned to Zhang Taiping and asked, "Brother, I just saw a knife in your hand, where did you put it?"

Ye Ling was also very curious about the knife that suddenly appeared and disappeared just now, but she didn't ask. Now that Fan Ming asked, she listened carefully.

Zhang Taiping looked at him with a curious and probing gaze and pricked up his ears, smiled and shook his head without speaking.

"Brother, tell me, where did you put the knife?" Fan Ming put his voice sweetly.

Zhang Taiping remained indifferent: "This is a secret."

"Brother is so stingy!" Fan Ming turned his head away a little angrily, and then secretly looked at Zhang Taiping, seeing that he just smiled and ignored him, he couldn't help being a little frustrated.

As for Ye Ling, although she is very curious, it is absolutely impossible for her to take the initiative to ask. She will only rot this curiosity in her stomach.To put it nicely, he is sensible, but to put it bluntly, he is like a gourd.

I finally got out of the mountain before the sun went down. Standing on a hillside, I could see the village below.Zhang Taiping couldn't help but heaved a long sigh of relief, it was really tiring to worry about the safety of so many little dolls, in the future this kind of thing of bringing little dolls into the mountains would not be possible.

Looking at the tired children, he said, "Don't be in a hurry now, just sit down and have a rest."

Everyone except Ye Ling was waiting for Zhang Taiping's words.This time, one is because of carrying things, and the other is because there are too many dolls, Zhang Taiping didn’t do anything special, so all the little girls along the way walked back and forth by themselves, and now they are also tired broken.The rare thing is that the little girl never cried out that she was tired along the way, nor did she say anything for Zhang Taiping to hold or carry.

Zhang Taiping stroked her head and said, "Yaya is so good!"

Although Yaya didn't understand why her father suddenly praised her, she still smiled sweetly.

The sun didn't have a hot ray at the moment, it looked like a big red plate hanging three feet above the top of the mountain.

"The sun is so bright." Sitting beside Zhang Taiping, Yaya said, feeling the warm red light on her face.

Yaya's words attracted the minds of the little dolls to the sun.

"The sun is so short from the top of the mountain." A little girl about the age of Yaya pinched two fingers to measure the distance from the sun to the top of the mountain.

Zhang Taiping was amused by her actions, seeing the happy scene of the little dolls making a mess, he felt relaxed.

Just when Zhang Taiping was immersed in this atmosphere, a voice interrupted him.

"Hey! There is little garlic here!"

Hearing this sound, the children all turned around and began to check the ground.

Only Fan Ming didn't understand what Xiao Suan was, and asked Zhang Taiping, "Brother, what is this?"

"Little Suan." Zhang Taiping said with a smile.

"I know it's Xiao Suan, but what is Xiao Suan?" Fan Ming asked.

"Don't you know how many pieces you dig out in the past?" Zhang Taiping said with a smile.

Fan Ming gave him a blank look when he heard the words, and went to pick up one that the little dolls dug out and looked at it. It looked like an onion that had shrunk several times on the top, and the root underneath was like a shrunken garlic.

"Can I eat this too?" Fan Ming asked.

Zhang Taiping said with a smile: "Little garlic tastes a bit spicy, but it's best to make dumplings with big meat."

"Can you make dumplings?" Fan Ming's eyes lit up, "Then dig out some more, and make dumplings once you get back to taste what it tastes like."

Zhang Taiping said: "It's up to you." Anyway, he didn't go to help.

When the sun was hanging on the top of the mountain, he stood up and said, "Okay, it's time to go back after we've had enough rest, or we'll get beaten up if we go back to play."

Zhang Taiping’s words of scaring actually do not have much effect on the little dolls. Children are stubborn and often forget the time when they play and come home very late. It is common for parents to slap a few times on it. Experience There is nothing to be afraid of.
