Happy Farm Ranch

Chapter 79 The Treasure of Peach Blossom Mountain
"Stop here for a while, I'll pick something good for you to take back!" Walking, Liang Dayong suddenly stopped.

Su Mu looked forward for a while, but he didn't see any dead trees within his vision, let alone any rare plants. Naturally, he didn't know what he wanted to pick.

Handing the wooden stick in his hand to Su Mu, Liang Dayong burrowed into the nearby bushes.After a few seconds, only rustling in the bushes could be heard, and no one could see him.

"Brother Su Mu, what did Uncle Dayong do? Is there something interesting to do?" Xia Jin became familiar with the docile little donkey, and was pulling weeds on the ground to feed it.

"I don't know, maybe I found something good." Su Mu shook his head, and used his consciousness to "scan" the place where he drilled, but found nothing suspicious.Since discovering the new ability, he has practiced it subconsciously, striving to be able to make perfect with practice, just like retracting and placing things in space, and gradually enhance his control ability.

Now the detailed "scanning" range is limited to within two meters, and the time can't be too long, otherwise it will cause a splitting headache.

But Su Mu believes that as long as he strengthens his practice, not only the range can be expanded, but also the duration can be gradually extended.

"I said that this time I went into the mountain with good luck. Look, I picked up so many mountain peppers." After a while, Liang Dayong came out from the lush bushes and showed Su Mu the bright red spherical berries in the bag. The stuff can be eaten raw or soaked in wine after drying, and it can also be brewed and juiced, try it.”

"No wonder it's called Shanhuajiao, it really smells like peppercorns." Su Mu frowned slightly, apparently not liking the smell.

Xia Jin's mother said happily: "There are so many wild Schisandra! They grow really well. Muzi is a traditional medicinal material. Wild Schisandra is very effective, especially when it grows in such a pure natural environment. Schisandra is good for eyesight, Hearing can be strengthened and improved. If you eat it regularly, you may be able to reduce the prescription of your glasses.

Take it back and dry the soaked wine, which has a good regulating effect on the heart, liver and blood pressure. "

"See, you don't know what to buy, but you know what to buy!" Liang Dayong handed a bag full of fresh schisandra to Xia Jin's mother, "Take a few and try something new, and dry the rest for you to take home. "

"Auntie, is this really a medicinal material? Is it worth cultivating artificially?" Su Mu knew her ability, so he hurriedly asked.If it is really useful, then take the opportunity to move a few in the space, and it won't be long before I can have many seedlings that can be transplanted.

Xia Jin's mother tasted two and nodded, "This is Schisandra chinensis. It tastes very good. If such a good fruit can be cultivated artificially, the value should be very high. Schisandra can be sold fresh, and can also be dried and stored for further processing. Just now Brother Dayong also said that it can make wine and fruit juice. Whether it is the market of Chinese herbal medicines, pharmaceuticals, or wine making, the market demand is very large, but it needs a large area of ​​planting to become a climate."

"It turns out that small berries are still a treasure!" Su Mu immediately became interested when he heard it, and while he was catching fresh berries to taste, he had already concentrated his energy and moved two ungrown schisandra seedlings into the space.

Another harvest, he was obviously in a good mood, he asked Hei Hu and Da Hui to follow him, continued to explore the way ahead, and was going to find some treasures in the mountains to bring back!

During the whole morning, the four of them shuttled through the big forest unhurriedly.

They saw the trees, mountains and all kinds of small animals all day yesterday, but they didn't feel bored at all.I have to say that nature is so wonderful. In the seemingly ordinary forest, there is a scene in three steps, a poem in five steps, a painting in ten steps, and a hundred steps in the world.The mother and daughter Su Mu and Xia Jin, who entered the mountain for the first time, often made them linger. Fortunately, they had made sufficient preparations before they came, and they brought enough batteries and memory cards for the camera, otherwise the camera would have been useless in the past two days.

When the scorching sun hit the earth at noon in midsummer, Liang Dayong had already brought them to the rest area for lunch.

This is a small valley that is easily overlooked in the vast mountains. A silver-white waterfall hangs down from a high mountain in the distance. The cool river flows through rocks covered with various colors, forming a deep and quiet lake in a low-lying place beside the forest. .Even with the scorching sun, the wild lotus in the depths of the lake is still luxuriant, and even a few buds have protruded from the water, occasionally swaying with the breeze.

"These pebbles are so beautiful! Mom, you see there are so many colors, I have to pick some beautiful stones to take back!" Xia Jin tried it by the shallow river, and it was very comfortable to step on the round pebbles washed by the flowing water. He took off his shoes and stepped barefoot on the slightly hot rocky beach, and began to look for good-looking stones.

"It turns out that there is water under the stone. I said, why are you not afraid of being scalded?" Xia Jin's mother also tried it, only to find that her feet stepped on the stone heated by the sun, but the cool river water in the crevice of the stone could overflow , the feet will not be burned by the stone.

Liang Dayong placed the donkeys and supplies at the edge of the woods closest to the river beach. Seeing them playing on the rocks with their shoes off, he reminded them loudly: "Don't run around, be careful there are scorpions under the rocks!"

"Scorpion?" Hearing what he said, Xia Jin immediately jumped onto a big rock and dared not move.

But Su Mu had an idea. On the way here just now, he had a good idea. While Liang Dayong was picking fresh fungus and looking for berries, he asked Xia Jin's mother a lot about medicinal materials in the mountains.

The vegetation in Peach Blossom Mountain grows very well, and various herbs are naturally indispensable.He listened and memorized, and when he encountered herbs with high cultivation value, he would transfer some of them to the space.

Now hearing from Liang Dayong that there are wild scorpions on the river beach, he immediately became interested!

Scorpions have high medicinal value. If you can catch some wild scorpions in good condition in Peach Blossom Mountain and go back to breed them, you will definitely earn a lot of extra money!

Of course, with Su Mu's temperament, he would like to try anything as long as he encounters it. As for whether it will develop in a big way in the future, it depends on the specific situation.Anyway, if there are wild scorpions in the small valley now, it is natural to catch some and put them in the space for special breeding.

"It's okay to stay on the river beach. If you run on the rocky beach and get stung by a scorpion, you can't blame me for not telling you." Liang Dayong washed the two large bags of fungus he picked in the river water, and emptied them. Draw a relatively safe area, indicating that they had better not go to places where scorpions are easy to find.

"Aside from scorpions, what else is more dangerous here?" Xia Jin was afraid of being stung by a scorpion, so she put on her shoes after thinking about it.

Su Mu at the side set up an arbor to look into the depths of the lake, and replied casually: "Aside from scorpions, I'm afraid they are water snakes. That thing likes to stay in shallow water the most, so be careful."

"Water snake?" Xia Jin screamed when she heard him say that, and hurried to her mother.

What she is most afraid of is the cold, swishing and soft snake-like animals. Just thinking about it makes goose bumps all over her body, so she is afraid of encountering a water snake, so she quickly stays away from the water.

"What's there to be afraid of? I'll grab two of them for you to taste later. They're delicious!" Liang Dayong didn't know whether he was deliberately scaring her or being serious, so he dried the washed fungus in the dry place. After placing the cooking things on the stone, I really ran to the shallow water for a walk!
"Brother Su Mu, we don't really want to eat snakes, do we?" Xia Jin blinked her big eyes and asked Su Mu in horror.

He looked and saw that Liang Dayong was wandering around the place full of aquatic plants, he shook his head and said, "I don't know how he arranged it, but I found something delicious, you help me get it together."

As he spoke, Su Mu showed her what he had bent down to get from the water just now.

"Snail?" Xia Jin was a little stunned, "Can you eat this sticky thing?"

"Of course I can eat it, and it tastes really good! I didn't expect that there are treasures everywhere in Peach Blossom Mountain. Auntie, when you come back in winter, you will definitely be surprised!"

Su Mu waved at Xia Jin's mother who was taking pictures of herself, and then handed Xia Jin a lotus leaf, "The most famous dish in France is snails. Look, there are so many big ones here, hurry up and pick them up!"

In the shade by the river bank, there are many walnut-sized snails lying on the moss, which are easy to pick up.It didn't take long, and there were dozens of big snails on the lotus leaves of the two of them.

"Oh, scorpion!" While picking up the snail, Xia Jin suddenly screamed!
Su Mu hurriedly rushed to her side, only then did he see clearly the situation in front of him.

While picking up snails, she saw a beautiful pebble and wanted to rinse it off and take it home.Unexpectedly, when Xia Jin was washing the stones, she accidentally stepped on a big rock under her feet, and through the gap, she found several scorpions under the rock!
"Don't provoke me, I'll catch you!" Liang Dayong immediately rushed over when he heard this.

He casually picked up a thick branch by the river and broke it into two pieces, then signaled Su Mu to bring a glass bottle from his luggage, Liang Da used his movements to clamp all the big scorpions under the stone into the bottle, and hurriedly Put the cap on the bottle, "Hey, I just took it home to make wine for drinking, the scorpion's medicinal effect is very good!"

"Scared me to death, scared me to death..." Xia Jin patted her chest, her breathing was somewhat short of breath.

Su Mu felt that there were enough snails, so he asked her to clean up the snails in a safe area, while he stood by the water and started "scanning"!
It didn't matter if he swept it away, he found that there were several big scorpions hidden under the nearby big rocks!Su Mu was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear, he quickly and quietly transferred it to the space.

Because he "repaired the aftermath" quickly, Liang Dayong didn't gain much except for catching these big scorpions.

After a while, he finally gave up searching and continued to think about today's lunch.

Cold and tender lotus leaves, roasted snails with crispy and crispy shells, wild green vegetables grown by the water and soup made with firewood eggs, as well as unique game dishes provided by Liang Dayong - grilled snake meat and grilled meat. frog!

Both of these were caught by him himself, and the rich booty also included a gauze bag of black ants.I heard from him that he wanted to take it back to soak in wine, and Xia Jin's mother confirmed that this kind of black ant has high medicinal value just like scorpions.Su Mu thought for a while, and simply moved almost all the members of the ant clan in the nearby ant nest into the space!
