Riding the wind of rebirth

Chapter 1933 A man remains young until death

He simply took off his trousers and shoes and threw them on the top of the firewood pole and crossed the Lengshui Creek. Zhou Zhi was shivering with cold. He threw the firewood aside and shouted, "I have to go in the water for a while..." He went into the tent, changed into swimming trunks, rushed out and shouted, dived into the pond, and swam towards the hot spring.

"Wait for me!" Everyone went into the water. Wu Renzhong no longer had the heart to work. He followed suit, changed into swimming trunks, jumped out and swam towards Zhou Zhi: "Why did you pick a bunch of mushrooms too?"

"There are too many mushrooms here. You can find a lot of them even when you collect firewood. Why do they need to run so far?" Zhou Zhi smiled and waited for Wu Renzhong to swim up. Then he changed into a standard freestyle posture, and in a few strokes he shot out a long distance. Then he changed into a leisurely backstroke posture: "Wow! Cool! It's getting hot here!"

"Let's go soak in the water nearby. I heard that swimming in warm water is not good because it can easily cause hemangiomas." Wu Renzhong swam over in the "unsinkable frog" posture: "Wow, it's a bit hot here!"

"You are probably lazy, right?" Zhou Zhi sneered, "Why haven't I heard of such a saying?"

"Really? We have the national team's winter training base here. You know, culture and sports go hand in hand. My sister took me there before. The national team's doctor said that the water temperature should not be too hot for winter swimming."

"Is that so?" Zhou Zhizhu listened to the advice and stopped about seven or eight meters away from the hot spring entrance. "No wonder Ah Zi said that eggs can be boiled in the upper reaches of the hot spring. It flows from the mountain to here, and the temperature is still so high."

"Dare you go in a little further?" Wu Renzhong swam to where he sat down opposite Zhou Zhi. After soaking in the warm water for a while, the two felt a little bored, so Zhou Zhi suddenly suggested.

"If you dare, I dare too." Wu Renzhong certainly did not admit defeat.

Zhou Zhi moved his butt one step closer to the water outlet.

Wu Renzhong remained silent, staring at Zhou Zhi and took a step towards the water outlet provocatively.

Then Zhou Zhi also fought back silently and took another step forward.

"Oh?" Wu Renzhong took a look and moved his butt another step forward.

After they soaked for a while, Zhou Zhi felt recovered: "This hot water bath can loosen up the tendons and remove some adhesions." As he said this, he moved his butt towards the water outlet.

"Yes," Wu Renzhong also moved his butt towards the water outlet: "The state receives some old cadres who come for recuperation every year, but I heard that sulfur-containing hot springs are better for the human body."

Zhou Zhi's forehead was already sweating slightly at this time. Seeing Wu Renzhong follow suit, he gritted his teeth and moved closer: "That's not necessarily true. Sulfur springs are mainly better for the skin, as they disinfect and kill bacteria. In fact, calcium springs should be the cleanest spring water, and the filtering effect of carbonate is also very strong."

"As for the health benefits, the health benefits of radon springs and fluoride springs may be less obvious."

Wu Renzhong's forehead was also sweating. After thinking for a while, he gritted his teeth and took a step closer to the water outlet: "Actually, it's nonsense to say that you can cure diseases by taking a bath. Even internal medication may not be so effective, let alone external application."

Zhou Zhi kept splashing hot water on his face and head to relieve the discomfort caused by the large temperature difference between his upper and lower body. "Who said it wasn't? I didn't dare to get water from here just now. The cold spring and hot spring water all flow out from underground lava caves and contain too many impurities. Although the calcium spring is clean, there may be other impurities. It's safer to drink surface water."

Wu Renzhong followed suit and poured hot water on his head: "I don't know where the girls have gone. What are we having for dinner tonight?"

"What? Can't stand it anymore? Want to use cooking as an excuse to end the fight?" Zhou Zhi asked with a sneer. "Tsk! Am I afraid of you? Do you like us to waste time like this?" Wu Renzhong was timid and didn't say that he dared to continue approaching the stream mouth.

"What are you two doing here?! We came back and were shocked to see no one there!" The girl in the swimsuit revealed her beautiful figure: "Brother Renzhong, Brother Elbow, you are so close to the stream, aren't you afraid that the water is too hot?"

Wu Renzhong suddenly jumped out of the hot water, the skin below his neck already red, "This is all Elbow's rotten idea, I'm not playing anymore!"

"You lose!" Zhou Zhi also jumped up, his neck also burning red, like a big shrimp, but he was still excited: "Hehe, you were the first one who couldn't bear it, right?"

"What are they doing?" Mai Xiaomiao, holding a basket in her hand, poked her head out from behind Jike Azi and said to Zhou Zhi and Wu Renzhong who were already swimming towards the "living base".

"It's just a boring game for boys." Shama Ricong said with a smile: "They are still children even when they grow old!"

It's strange to say, but since breaking up with Jiang Shuyi, Zhou Zhi has never been in that state again. When he was with Wei Fei and Yan Xiao before, even though Zhou Zhi was a second-generation human, he was often led by them to do some second-generation behaviors.

In fact, it is a manifestation of a relaxed and youthful mentality, but this kind of mentality has hardly appeared in Zhou Zhi during this period, and it suddenly came back today.

By the time a few girls went into the water to drive away the cold and swam over again, Zhou Zhi had already lit a bonfire, put the burnt charcoal into the barbecue grill, and started preparing to cook.

"Elbow, look at the big mushrooms we picked up!" Mai Xiaomiao was very excited: "There is a kind of mushroom that is very interesting. It turns blue when you touch it with your hand!"

"That's called Jianshouqing." Zhou Zhi knew what kind of mushroom Mai Xiaomiao was talking about. Jianshouqing is actually a kind of boletus. It is delicious, but if it is not cooked well, it will also bring bad luck.

The people of Jiachuan are just as fond of wild mushrooms as those in central Yunnan. My grandmother usually has three tricks to cook this kind of mushrooms. The first is to use enough oil, preferably animal oil, and braise it with pork belly, or stew it with lard.

The second trick is to have enough time. When braising or stewing, it is best to add the mushrooms after stir-frying the meat. For frying or stir-frying, ensure sufficient cooking time.

The third trick is to add enough garlic.

Zhou Zhi believes that the key lies in the temperature. If there is enough oil, the temperature will be higher than boiling in water. Sufficient cooking time is actually to maintain a long-term high temperature to dissolve the toxic substances in the mushrooms.

As for garlic, apart from adjusting the flavor, there is actually not much scientific reason for it. However, there is another point to pay attention to, which is "cross-infection". For example, using the knife and cutting board used to cut mushrooms, cutting green onions without washing them thoroughly, and then sprinkling the green onions on the dish after it is cooked. Many people have fallen into this trap.

The mushrooms picked up were mainly yellow mushrooms, red mushrooms, chanterelles, as well as some tiger paw mushrooms and matsutake mushrooms.

Because of the search area, the above-mentioned mushrooms are more common in the broad-leaved native forest. Of course, there are definitely many Cyclobalanopsis fasciatus, but I guess Gillette Zi didn't even look down on them, so we didn't pick them.

The chicken mushroom is a good mushroom, but it likes cold and needs termites to coexist, so it usually grows in pine forests. It is impossible for A Zi and her friends to run so far in the cold in their swimsuits.
