Chapter 725 Poppy Flower

"Looks like a very shrewd person. If you want to die, you can't blame others."

Seeing that Qin Feng didn't listen to his greeting, Qian Yi cursed, but had no choice but to climb up the mountain by himself, and the nearby dead branches had already been collected.

"Brother, let's go to the mountain to collect some firewood!"

Yao Er also said something worried, he is very familiar with the situation in the mountains, he knows that even if it is not a flower demon, there are often poisonous snakes in the places where flowers and plants bloom, and it is not a good thing to get close.

"Second brother Yao, it's okay!" Qin Feng shook his head with a smile, he had already walked down 30 meters while speaking, and he was about to reach the edge of the sea of ​​flowers.

"The kid who doesn't know how to live or die..."

Qin Feng's actions also attracted the attention of Lu Fenglei and others, but they only paid attention to it for a while, and did not take Qin Feng's life and death seriously.

"This... is this really poppy?" When Qin Feng walked to the edge of the sea of ​​flowers, he took a light with the simple torch burning in his hand, and his eyes suddenly widened.

Before smelling the fragrance of flowers, Qin Feng was just suspicious, but when he came close, Qin Feng recognized it at a glance. This vast sea of ​​flowers is actually full of poppies.

These poppies are about one meter high, and the branches are separated, covered with rough hairs, deeply divided pinnately, the lobes are lanceolate or strip-lanceolate, and there are rough hairs on both sides.

Under the illumination of the torches, the originally pink poppies were rendered even more red, and there were many black round fruits growing on the fallen petals.

Since poppy is an annual herb, after flowering and fruiting, if the fruit is not picked, the poppy will wither, and the fruit will fall to the ground and then grow again.

This piece of poppy field is obviously unpicked. Many poppy stalks have withered at the edge of the sea of ​​flowers, but the poppies that are still blooming occupy the vast majority of the area, so those withered ones seem a bit inconspicuous.

"Damn it, if Mexico or mafia drug dealers know about this place, they will try their best to come!"

Looking at the sea of ​​poppies that can't be seen at a glance, Qin Feng was really shocked. Even in a place like the Golden Triangle, there may not be such a large poppy planting base, right?
"Brother He, are there any dry ones? If not, come back!" Yao Er, who was tens of meters away, feared that something would happen to Qin Feng, and his voice spread far away in this empty mountain.

"Speak softly, you are not afraid of attracting wild animals?",

After hearing Yao Er's words, Young Master Ning, who was sitting by the side of the bonfire, reprimanded him in a low voice, and the servants around him glared at Yao Er angrily.

"Master Ning, don't be afraid!"

Yao Er pointed to the man-eating tree and said, "With this dryad around, no wild animal dares to come over. Let's set up camp here, and we'll be fine..."

Yao Er has lived in the mountains all his life, he knows that the instinct of wild beasts to seek good luck and avoid evil is far stronger than that of human beings, and there are probably more human bones than wild beasts in the skeletons in the dryad forest.

"Second brother Yao, it's okay, there are a lot of withered flowers and plants here, which can be used as firewood!" Qin Feng's heart moved, and he replied loudly, bent down and hugged some withered grass stalks in his arms, and turned to go Go to the campfire.

But when walking on the road, Qin Feng picked off all the poppy seeds and threw them on the ground.

This kind of seed is the fruit of refining drugs. If the drug dealers outside saw Qin Feng treating their treasures like this, they would have been driven mad.

"Well, this is good for firewood!"

Qin Feng walked to the bonfire and threw a large armful of poppies in his arms into it. The bonfire, which had slowed down a bit, burst into flames that were several meters high.

"Well, well done."

Qian Yuandan also nodded. The night in the mountains is a bit cold, and the mountain wind blows a chill in one's bones. The bonfire can not only drive away wild animals, but also drive out the cold.

The dead grass burned, and the smoke emitted was more than that of the dead branches, but under the bitter mountain wind, the smoke was quickly blown away, but the nose could smell some smoke, which was completely tolerable.

Young Master Ning stood up, pointed at Qin Feng, and said, "I see that there are a lot of withered flowers over there, so you can do this all night!"

Although Qin Feng and others were paid, Ning Shao felt uncomfortable.

Because the kid named Zhang Hu didn't do any shit at all, he just received a stone of grain for nothing, and Qin Feng just took the burden, and didn't let him do more work, so Master Ning absolutely couldn't balance his mind.

"Yes, Master Ning, don't worry, you guys, I will definitely not let this fire go out!" Qin Feng nodded seriously, dropped the straw in his hand, and ran back briskly.

This time Qin Feng brought more straws, but he didn't throw them all into the bonfire, but piled them up outside. After running like this for more than ten times, on the ground near the downhill, it was already swaying. A thick layer of hay stalks was formed.

Yao Er wanted to help just now, but was persuaded by Qin Feng. Seeing Qin Feng's sweating profusely, he couldn't help saying, "Okay, Brother He, take a rest, these straws are enough to burn for a while." It's time."

"Okay, Brother Yao, take a look, is this food edible?"

Qin Feng nodded, sat down on the thick straw, and took out a finger-long, white and tender thing from his pocket, which looked a bit like a plant root.

"What is this? Why haven't I seen it before?" Yao Er frowned after taking the plant root that Qin Feng handed over.

There are many things in the mountains, such as Huang Lingzhi, which can prolong life if eaten, but there are also some plants that are highly poisonous, and one will be poisoned and die if one is not careful.

"Huzi, have you seen it?" Qin Feng asked loudly.

"Uncle, I haven't seen this thing before!" Zhang Hu ran to hold it in his hand for a long time, shook his head, and said, "It doesn't look like poisonous thing, why don't you try it?"

"Bring me to see?"

Master Ning walked to Qin Feng's side, snatched the root, smelled the faint fragrance from the root, and couldn't help swallowing.

"Master Lu, you are well-informed, let's see if this thing is edible?"

Although he had the desire to eat this thing in one mouthful, Master Ning still took it to Lu Fenglei's side first. As the young master of the mayor, his life is worth more than Qin Feng and others.

"I don't know, it's better not to eat!"

Lu Fenglei looked at the stem carefully for a while, then shook his head and said: "Some things smell very good, but they can eat dead people, just like the mushrooms under this tree, the more beautiful they grow, the more poisonous they are..."

"What Master Lu said was that he was almost deceived by this kid..." After hearing Lu Fenglei's words, Young Master Ning was furious, snatched the root of the plant, and threw it into the bonfire.

"Hey, Master Ning, don't throw it away if you don't eat it!" Qin Feng yelled: "We didn't eat enough at night, and we still want to use this thing to fill our stomachs..."

"Eat, eat you to death!" Young Master Ning glanced at Qin Feng with contempt, and said, "Eat if you are not afraid of death, and if you die, I will throw you to the tree spirit..."

"Our lives are cheap, and Lord Yan will not take them..."

Qin Feng curled his lips and said, "No, I'm going to be very hungry. Brother Yao, I don't think this thing is poisonous. I'll eat one first..."

While Qin Feng was talking, he took out a root from nowhere, wiped it casually with his hand, stuffed it into his mouth, and started chewing with a "click".

"You kid is really not afraid of death?"

Seeing Qin Feng's actions, Young Master Ning couldn't help being stunned for a moment, then looked at Qin Feng with a look like a dead man, and said, "See how long you can last?"

"Stop cursing my cousin..." Zhang Hu glared at Young Master Ning, and said, "There are so many things to eat in the mountains, only you who are afraid of death don't dare to eat them, but I dare to eat them..."

As if to prove his bravery, Zhang Hu reached out and snatched the root of the plant that Qin Feng hadn't finished eating, stuffed it into his mouth and started chewing. Through the firelight, he could clearly see the white juice flowing from the corner of his mouth.

"Huh? How can you eat indiscriminately?"

Lu Fenglei could ignore Qin Feng's life or death, but he was very nervous about Zhang Hu. Seeing that Zhang Hu ate the root, he couldn't help but walk to Zhang Hu's side, and grabbed Zhang Hu's wrist.

"It seems to be all right?" After giving Zhang Hu the pulse, Lu Fenglei's face eased a lot, because Zhang Hu's pulse was beating strongly, and he didn't seem to be poisoned.

"Stop eating these things!"

Seeing that Zhang Hu was fine, Lu Fenglei walked back to where he was sitting, but kept his eyes on Zhang Hu, for fear of finding signs of poisoning in him.

"What are you afraid of? I still have this, do you want to eat it?"

Qin Feng reached out his hand and took out another five or six white roots from his pocket. While stuffing it into his mouth, he said: "This food is a bit bitter, but it can fill your stomach. Young Master Qian, do you want some?"

"Don't eat!" Qian Yuandan shook his head. As the saying goes, soldiers don't stand under dangerous walls. Qian Yuandan grew up with rich clothes and fine food. How could he eat these weed-like things?

Hearing Qian Yuandan's words, Qian Yi and the others, who were a little moved at first, also refrained from asking Qin Feng for the root of the plant. Although they are servants of the Qian family, they also feel that they are more valuable than Qin Feng.

"Forget it if you don't eat, Brother Yao, do you want to eat?" Qin Feng asked Yao Er beside him.

"just forget it!"

Although Yao Er was also a little moved, he still held back. He once saw a mountain deer eat a brightly colored flower and plant. After eating it, he fell to the ground and died violently after walking only two meters. It can be seen that the plants in this mountain are extremely poisonous. up.

"You will have the strength to work when you are full!" Qin Feng didn't force Yao Er, after eating the few roots in his hand, he staggered and went to hug the withered grass again.

However, the withered poppy brought by Qin Feng this time did not pick off the fruit that formed after the flower faded. Almost every poppy stalk had a poppy fruit the size of a strawberry.

They were also withered poppy stalks, let alone at night, even in broad daylight, Lu Fenglei and others sitting on the other side of the bonfire could not distinguish the subtle difference.
