Chapter 77 Prickly Tree

Many water-loving plants died, leaving only dead branches and leaves among the trees.

No one withered, and the leaves also adapted to the environment and began to change. Some leaves became thinner and smaller, some became thinner and longer, some thickened, and some were like cactus. Out of the thorn.

This kind of cactus is also called thorny tree in the animal world. They are not like the ones on the earth, and there are small varieties.

All thorny trees are transformed from some trees in the rainy season to adapt to the dry season environment.

Moreover, the thorny trees that have undergone transformation do not have the saying that they can survive without cuttings. When they want to reproduce and expand their scale, the seeds are scattered on the ground, and then germinate and pull out, growing wildly during the dry season.

It is affected by the tree species at the time of transformation and whether there is any mutation after transformation.

Some of these thorny trees can be eaten, and some can't be eaten. The specific identification method depends on the species of thorny tree.

It looks like a cactus, but it is a thorny tree leaf that grows on the branches of the tree. Carefully avoid its thorns and break it off from the bottom. After breaking it off, carefully pick it up one by one and put it into the car.

At present, the non-toxic and edible thorn tree species known to females include red heart thorn tree, agate thorn tree, topaz thorn tree, green palm thorn tree, orange ball thorn tree, and azure ball thorn tree And white jade thorny tree.

Others, such as the blackberry thorny tree is poisonous, and the waxy thorny tree is transformed from the wax tree, which can be used to make candles and so on.

Forget about the rainy season, windy season and snowy season, the overall environment outside is cooler, and it is no problem to use torches for lighting at home.

But if it is a dry season, such a hot day, and you are still warming up at home, if there are some combustion-supporting substances, it is really no different from self-immolation, purely courting death.

At this time, the waxy thorny tree can come in handy.

It does not take up space, and it can reduce the fire, so that the room is not so hot in the dry season.

Today, Mukui and the others mainly collect the spines from these thorny trees.

Although this thing is full of thorns, if it is cleaned up, it is also a rare delicacy.

For example, the topaz thorny tree has no extra fleshy stems in its spines. After removing the thorns and skin, it looks as smooth and delicate as topaz. It can be eaten raw, and its taste is similar to carambola. It is also a fruit. Not too much.

The spiny palm of the Red Heart Prickly Tree looks like little pink hearts with thorns.

However, after steaming it, its taste is sweet and soft, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a natural snack.

The thorns of the agate thorny tree are mashed into mud, and spread on barbecue or stir-fried vegetables, which can not only enhance the freshness of food, but also have a special fragrance, which is endless aftertaste.

Green palm thorny tree is crisp and refreshing, and it is also very delicious when used cold or stir-fried.

Chenghuang ball thorn tree is very good for stewing soup, or it can be roasted and eaten directly.

The function of the sky blue ball thorn tree is similar to that of the orange ball thorn tree, and Mu Kui has not discovered its new characteristics for the time being.

The taste of white jade thorny tree is delicate and smooth, and it can be eaten directly by roasting.

Mu Kui can now show her strength as a beast warrior.

The wind ability is dispatched, and it takes a lot of effort to break off the thaliana, and then put it in the carriage. Mukui uses the wind ability to accurately control it, and can quickly cut off its thaliana and the root, and roll it up and put it directly into the carriage. .

You don't even need to move your hands during the whole process, and you can collect efficiently and quickly, which makes the females very envious.

"It's good to have the ability of wind, if only I can become a beast warrior."

Ordinary females are very eager to see, and their hearts are full of endless yearning for becoming a beast warrior.

"Aoi, how did you do this! Why can't I do it?"

Ping asked with a puzzled look.

"Maybe it's because I often groom others, so my mental power is relatively high!"

Mu Kui explained casually.

What she was talking about was the time when she first moved out of Guzai Cave, during that time, in order to contribute points, Mu Kui groomed people very frequently.

"Oh, that's it! Then I will practice more, and strive to be like you as soon as possible, and you can collect things without using your hands."

The rest of the females who had awakened as beast-patterned warriors also came over and exchanged their experience in using abilities with Mu Kui.

"This way... do this again..."

Mu Kui didn't hide her secrets much, and told them what she knew about picking up some tricks for using abilities suitable for females.

Of course, can they learn it?That's two words, after all, not everyone is like Mu Kui, who is an official witch priest in itself, and the one who has laid the most solid foundation.

In addition, she also picked some thorny tree species that the females did not find poisonous, and she also picked them and put them in the carriage.

After seeing it, a female asked suspiciously.

"Just want to try." Mu Kui replied.

Hearing that, those females didn't ask any more questions.

It has not been a day or two for Mukui to do this, and the females have long been accustomed to it.

In the morning, Mukui filled the two-and-a-half-car carriages with thorns from thorny trees.

For the remaining half of the carriage, Mu Kui was going to use it to hold other miscellaneous collected resources.

In the afternoon, the collection team finished work early.

Mu Kui dragged three carriages full of supplies and returned with a full load.

When I got home, I first removed the big thorns on the thorny palm, and then peeled off the small thorns with the bark of the thorny tree until all the small thorns were peeled off.

Then, these palms can be eaten raw and taste good, so they are kept as fruits.

Most of the rest are dried in the sun, and a small part is used for cold dressing or stewing soup.

In terms of mosquito repellent, Mukui found Qilixiang when collecting, picked a lot of Qilixiang flowers, and also broke a few branches, and prepared to plant them in the breeding room.

The scientific name of this kind of Qilixiang is also called single-petal Baimuxiang, which is the original wild variety of Muxianghua. It is also called Shanmuhua, Xiangqili, Xiangqiangwei, etc. in some places. They all look similar, except that the petals are white and single, with a strong fragrance that can be smelled from a long distance.

It is essentially different from a plant whose scientific name is Qilixiang, but when Mukui lived on the earth, people in their area called it Qilixiang, and Mavericks also called it Qilixiang, so let’s call it that up.

It can be said that Qilixiang is full of treasures. The flowers, leaves and fruits contain essential oils. After extraction, it can be used as perfume and also has the effect of repelling mosquitoes.

Even, it can be used for cooking and snacks, and the fragrance of flowers can play a role in increasing fragrance and seasoning.

Both the roots, stems and leaves can be used as medicine. In addition, if you smoke bacon, you can use its branches to smoke. It can be said that except for the roots, the rest of the parts are useful.

This thing only needs one or two cuttings to survive, and it can absorb nutrients and grow by itself. Even if it is free-range, it can also thrive, and it doesn't need to take too much care of it.

The branch is first inserted in a wooden vase, and water and a little soil are added, and it can be transplanted after it grows fibrous roots by itself.

The seven lixiang flower is steam distilled to make essential oil.

Mukui replaced the red grass at home, hugged three little ones, and smoked their fur with Qili essential oil, making them fragrant all over.

At the same time, this strong fragrance also makes the mosquitoes stay far away and dare not approach the cubs.

After doing this, Mukui smoked the living room, kitchen and bedroom at home, so as not to give mosquitoes a chance to thrive.

 I fell asleep while writing, emmm
