Chapter 479 Purple Sweet Potato Papaya Dragon Fruit

Chapter 480 Purple Sweet Potato Papaya Dragon Fruit

When we came to the water outlet, the cassava baskets were also washed away.

The two continued on, leaving the creek halfway to check the sumac.

On the way, Li Junge found some hoof prints on the muddy ground after the rain.

Li Junge pointed to the hoof marks and said, "Ayin, look, these are the marks of wild boars. We have stepped on the way these days, and they are also lazy and follow our way."

A Yin said: "Hahaha, I have never heard of people walking in Lijiagou and Miao Village, and wild boars dare to walk."

Li Junge smiled and said: "The pigs here have never seen a human being, so they don't know how scary people are. Come on, let's make a call, I have better eyesight than yours to see this thing."

Throwing the wooden spear to Ayin, Li Junge drew out his long knife and walked ahead.

Going forward for a while, the wild boar's hoof prints diverged and went to a forest.

Li Junge said to A Yin: "Come on, let's go and have a look, maybe we can find something."

After passing through a forest, Li Junge found that the area outside the forest was obviously overtaken by wild boars.

Li Junge pointed at the machete and said, "There must be something there."

When he came to this land, Li Junge found some vine-like plants, which grow on the ground like sweet potato vines, but the leaves are much smaller than the sweet potatoes at home. I don't know if it is due to insufficient light or just like that.

There are still some roots that have been turned over in the field.

Li Junge picked up a bunch of vine roots, and laughed at A Yin: "Oh, God, this is a slap for a sweet date!"

The roots are not big, the big ones are only as big as the index finger and middle finger of the thumb, and the small ones are the size of a thumb, and the fractured surface is purple.

A Yin asked in surprise: "This is... purple potato?"

Li Junge smiled and said, "I don't know what kind of potato it is, but it must be a kind of sweet potato. The size of the root is not important. Now I don't have to worry about running out of food!"

A Yin said: "That's right! Then let's dig some back quickly?"

Li Junge said: "Put it here first, anyway, I can't run away, and dig it when I go back!"

But I was secretly vigilant in my heart. The island is so rich in products, and the size of the wild boar does not know how big it is. When I go back, I have to quickly transform the loom and tie Ayin to the weaving. It is too dangerous as before. .

Throwing Fujiko on the ground, the two went back the same way and checked the sumac tree.

The big paint canister is still there, and although the hat flew off, Li Junge is well sealed, not much air can get in, let alone water, so it is not a big problem.

But those small bamboo tubes that were painted on the edge of the knife are useless, many of them are gone, and the rest are all filled with water.

Li Junge didn't rush to get the lacquer, so he might get more water than the lacquer.

After weaving a hat for the paint canister and hanging it back up, the two continued to head towards the beach.

It was only when we came to the beach that we realized how terrible the heavy rain was. Outside the valley, many bamboos were blown off.

On the beach that was searched by the two last time, a lot of fresh coconuts fell again.

Ayin looked worried: "It's a pity that so many coconuts are thrown here, but we can't eat so many..."

Li Junge smiled and said: "Let's save it for the strange crabs. Last time we ransacked them, they were hungry for several days. Everyone is happy now."

The two of them knew how to recognize coconuts now. Li Junge picked two juicy ones and peeled them off with a machete. He took out the core inside, drilled a hole with a drill, inserted a bamboo tube into it, and drank while heading to the dragon kiln.

Looking at the scene of the beach being destroyed, A Yin said with lingering fear: "Erpi, fortunately we chose to camp in the valley, so the camp of the two beards is still soaked in water. If we camp on the beach, we will not be able to survive this day." pass……"

The two beards who were filming behind nodded repeatedly. They contacted the big team last night. Their group is considered the best. At least they have a dry place to sleep at night. The other teams are miserable.

Li Junge smiled and said: "People, if you don't learn the lessons, you don't know the depth. We went to the mountains because I was only familiar with the mountains. You don't know, we regretted the two days when we boiled oil and salt on the beach to eat strange crabs." Die! The beach is so comfortable, the sea breeze is blowing, the sun is basking in the sun, drinking coconut juice, eating enough seafood, you don’t have to do anything! It’s such a beautiful day, I’m just afraid you won’t dare to complain.”

A Yin laughed loudly: "Actually, I thought so too, I'm afraid you didn't say anything too much."

The two looked at each other and both laughed. Li Junge said: "Fortunately, no one spoke. If anyone speaks, the rain yesterday will suffer!"

Ayin said: "So God is fair. The easier it is to get something, the easier it is to lose it. It is more secure to rely on your own efforts."

When you come to the salt field, you can't even see it here.

The salt field is located where the stream flows into the sea, and right at the mouth of the wind, half of the sandy soil and grass leaves on the roof facing the sea were blown away. Although the herringbone shed was as low as possible, it was still blown down.

The kiln is still intact, but the inside is now half full of water and half full of sand.

The insulation ditch on both sides was also full of water, and more than half of the leaves were blown away.

Li Junge checked around, looked at the rocks on the other side of the stream being beaten by the waves, and murmured, "I know why those shells are so strong. It's because I'm worried that the navy will be blown into an air force..."

The two dug up the remaining sand, took down half of the shed, and checked the equipment.

The salt pan, the salt pan is buried deep, no problem.

The pot, pan, and stove are all there, so the loss is not too big.

Li Junge said: "The situation is not bad. Regardless of whether it is used or not in the future, let's sort it out. Always be prepared for any danger. It would be a pity to let the water soak."

So the two began to organize,
Dragging the salt plate and pot to dry on the beach, Li Junge cleaned the insulation ditch and the stove, wiped off the sand on the back of the dragon kiln, took out the stone slabs, tidied up the flue, and re-paved the stone slabs with thin mud.

After finishing all this, the sun also came out. Li Junge randomly wove two straw hats out of coconut leaves, and the two of them played in the woods around the stream.

In the depths of the forest, there were a dozen or so taro plants that were discovered last time. The two went to see it again, and planned to move it to the vicinity of their camp if they had time.

This thing has a mouth-numbing mouth. It doesn't eat much wild animals, and it's still growing by the stream.

There are many tropical broad-leaved plants and various palms by the stream, many of which the two of them have never seen before, and are full of curiosity about these things.

Walking to an open area, the soil on the slope is sandy, and a strange tree grows on the sunny side.

It is strange that the fruit of this tree does not grow on the branches, and many of them grow directly on the trunk of the tree. For Li Junge, who was born in Lijiagou, it feels amazing.

Li Junge laughed uncontrollably: "Ayin, this is the Nine Pocket Elder of the Beggar Gang in the tree!"

Ayin is very familiar with this: "Hey! Papaya! Many of them are ripe!"

Li Jiagou was surprised and said, "You know all of this?"

A Yin laughed and said, "In the university dormitory, there are girls who often eat this, and they say it's..."

Having said that, I didn't continue talking.

Li Junge sneered, don't think I don't know if you don't say it, China pays attention to the shape to complement the shape, you girls must eat this to make up for there...

Ayin pulled out a short knife and cut two yellowed ones from the tree. The inside was bright orange red, and there was a pack of small round sunspots wrapped in a translucent film.

Take a knife to scrape off the sunspots, use the knife to peel off some of the side peel, cut off a piece, and said, "Erpi, try it..."

Li Junge took it and tasted it, and it tasted good, fragrant and sweet, as soft as eating canned peaches.

He smiled and said, "Good stuff, I'll pick a few every day from now on."

A Yin also ate a piece: "Well, it's much more delicious than what we ate in the dormitory!"

Li Junge said: "This is the advantage of the place of origin. The melons and fruits used for transportation are shipped when they are ripe, but they are rotten on the ground. Therefore, many of them are picked before they are ripe, and they slowly change on the road. Ripe, the taste is definitely incomparable to the ones that are completely ripe in the field and eaten right away."

A Yin looked at the many papayas that fell on the ground and said, "It's a pity, many of them are rotten."

Li Junge picked them on the ground and said, "Some were harvested just yesterday. There is no problem with these. If you like, you can also pick the overripe ones off the tree. Take them back and process them into dried papayas. From now on, you will collect one or two every day." Familiar, hahaha."

Ayin said: "Actually, green papaya can also be used for cooking, and papaya stewed pork knuckle is fine. I think stewed bamboo rat is also fine. The skin of bamboo rat is also glutinous."

Now Li Junge understands better. Pork knuckle stewed with papaya, heh heh heh, it's stylish and tasty, I know where to make it up!He smiled and said, "Isn't this a dumpling made of vinegar? Bamboo rats have such strong teeth. It's not clear whether hemp rope can catch them..."

After searching around for a while, I also found two kinds of fruit, one kind of fruit was very similar to pineapple, and it smelled similar, but when I cut it open, there was no meat inside, so I was very happy.

There is also a kind of fruit that neither of them knows. The bunches of fruit look like grapes, and they look like loquats individually. When the skin is torn off, it looks like lychee inside, and the petals are divided. The taste is sour and sweet, similar to lychee.

There is no need to guess that this fruit can be eaten, and it has a taste of hometown. Both of them were very pleasantly surprised.

There was no need to make lunch anymore, the two picked some more fruits, went back to the beach to bury the salt field, packed up their things, and prepared to return from the same way.

Picked another dozen coconuts on the beach, peeled them out and brought them back, and the two of them went to dig purple potatoes again.

Back at the camp, Li Junge and Ayin dug out the baskets of the dustpan, put away the coconuts, blamed the loquats for eating at night, scraped the skin of the papaya and cut them into thin strips, sprinkled them on the dustpan and baked them.

Li Junge carried a basket to the water's edge to pick up the mud in the reed pond.

When you come to the pond, first put the bundle of hemp on a thick hemp rope, pick it up and wash it at the clean water at the water inlet.

Then come back and pick the black fat mud back to the camp.

A Yin has already packed up her things, and is dragging out the bamboo bed in the shed to dry, and sorting out the shelves and various things.

The shed could no longer be lived in, so Li Junge simply tore it down.

Then add sand and plant ash to the silt.

On the other side of the new shed, Li Junge used hemp rope to pull out a three-divided rectangle, nailed bamboo poles, and began to build a low fence with waste bamboo materials.

Then I picked a basket of nutritious soil, put it upside down in the field, and turned it into a mound.

In this way, one basket after another, five mounds were piled up.
