Chapter 351 Conquering a wise woman to farm in Huangxing (10)
The Insect Beast Forest occupies a very large area, and its outer perimeter is full of dangers. Very few people can enter the inner perimeter.
Kaxiu and his party have gone to the deepest place, still three-quarters of the way from the center of the forest.
Hence, he doesn’t know what the central area is like. Because few people go in, and those who go in are never seen coming out.
Xu Yin guessed that there were probably ferocious beasts like tigers.
But she had no intention of going into the deep forest. The outer area alone was enough for her to wander around.
The forest before the cold season is similar to the mountains in autumn. Not only fresh mushrooms and fungus can be seen everywhere, but ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum are also ignored by the people here.
After Cassiu and Simon met, they gave their younger brother some instructions and went hunting.
Xu Yin took Kahn to hunt for treasures in the outer periphery.
In Xu Yin’s opinion, there are treasures everywhere here.
There are pine nuts, hazelnuts, chestnuts, wild dates, wild fruits on the trees...
There are various kinds of fungi on the ground, but they are all larger.
Sometimes you can dig up ginseng that is hundreds or thousands of years old, huge red sesame that looks like fake, and extra-large Hericium mushrooms that look like the furry heads of monkeys.
At this point, I don’t mind the bad start at all.
Bitterness first and then sweetness, bitterness and then sweetness, life is like this with its ups and downs!
“Brother Hero, you can’t eat this, it’s poisonous!” Kahn saw her picking red mushrooms and his face turned pale with fright. “Someone ate this and died on the spot!”
Xu Yin thought for a moment and realized that red mushrooms are indeed similar to some poisonous mushrooms.
But she had learned how to identify red mushrooms from her aunt at the time in the 1980s, not to mention the "Illustrated Book of Chinese Herbal Medicine" to protect her, so she couldn't be wrong.
He taught Kahn step by step how to identify red mushrooms: "If you pick them this way, you won't get poisonous mushrooms."
"Really?"
“Of course. When have I ever lied to you?”
Kahn thought about it and realized that there really wasn't one, so he happily followed Xu Yin to pick up the mushrooms.
Whatever Xu Yin picked up, he would pick up.
“Ouch!”
Kahn was happily picking it up when he suddenly tripped over a rotten wooden pile.
Xu Yin helped him up and pulled out the unexpected wooden stake.
A piece of black coal-like material is brought up from the root.
Take a closer look and feel happy!
Black truffle! This is good stuff!
Known as the black diamond on the dining table.
Seeing Kahn pinching her nose in disgust, Xu Yin laughed and said: "Kahn, you found a treasure! Go back and reward you with delicious food!"
“Is this a baby?”
"right!"
Kahn expressed his incomprehension.
But when he heard there was something delicious to eat, he went to look for the rotten wooden piles.
Xu Yin laughed when she saw it.
Black truffles are hard to come by. Wherever there are wooden stakes, there are bound to be black truffles. It’s not that good.
Unexpectedly, Kahn actually found clumps of black truffles based on rotten tree stumps.
Xu Yin: “…”
This result was something I didn’t expect.
In addition to black truffles, Kahn also accidentally dug up a bush of wild Gastrodia elata that was thicker than an adult’s arm.
“Kahn, have you activated the treasure hunter’s skills?” Xu Yin happily wanted to hug the child and give him a kiss.
Kahn looked confused: "What is a treasure hunter rat?"
“…” Forget it, Dangjie didn’t say anything.
Kahn, however, was not sensitive to the yam: "This is poisonous. It's really poisonous. My brother brought it back once. Before I even ate it, my whole body was covered in red rashes. It was itchy and painful. I felt uncomfortable for several days." Xu Yin gave him a popular science : "Yams are like this. They are prone to allergies when peeled, but they are no longer poisonous after being cooked. This tastes very good. Do you really not want to eat it?"
Kahn swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "Eat!"
Xu Yin held back her laughter and put away the yams.
At this time, Card Xiu, Simon and others who had gone in for a day's wandering also came back.
They got off to a good start today and hunted a horned insect that looked like a cow, which was even bigger than the one they hunted last time.
“If I could hunt a big guy like this every day, I would be able to go home early and it wouldn’t take as long as last time.” Simon said.
Every time he goes out, he misses his wife at home. He wishes he could hunt enough meat for a cold season in three days and go home to live by his wife.
Several others, like Card Xiu, are single.
The majority of men commit the ultimate crime, so women are quite popular on the Exile Planet. Xu Yin was glad that she made the decision to disguise herself as a man.
When bachelors get together, they inevitably talk about women. Xu Yin couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when she heard them laughing and talking about naughty things.
Should we avoid it?
At this time, a shrill cry for help came from the forest.
It seemed like some giant beast had run out, and the ground was shaken with a thud.
Simon and others immediately grasped the sharp weapons cut from mangroves and stood ready.
Kahn was carried to a tree by Kaxiu.
"Is it Clovis?" Simon recognized the man who stumbled out and it was Monkey's father.
When Clovis saw them, he shouted in panic: "Run! There is a giant beast!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a furious giant beast rushing from the direction of the deep forest. It is so big and fast that it is impossible to fight against it.
The companions who had been hunting with Clovis had been knocked to the ground by it with its horns.
“Quick! Hide behind the big tree!”
Simon waved his hand.
Several people quickly ran behind the towering tree on the opposite side, which was large enough for five or six people to surround it.
However, the giant beast seemed to hear their voices and ran straight behind the tree.
Kahn was frightened when he looked at the tree, and subconsciously shouted: "Brother!"
The giant beast turned around and crashed into the tree where Kahn was.
"Oops!"
Cha Xiu saw that the situation was wrong and wanted to rush over and fight the giant beast desperately.
Xu Yin grabbed him, then quickly stepped forward, looked at the belly of the giant beast, used all her strength, rushed forward and punched out.
With a "bang" sound, the giant beast was thrown away by her fist and hit a towering tree. The trunk of the tree was rattled by the impact.
“No! The tree is going to fall! Run!”
Kaxiu asked Kahn to jump down, caught him, and ran out of the Insect Beast Forest with the others.
‖
The sound of the big tree falling caused the ground to tremble three times.
Xu Yin and the others ran for a while and stopped when they were sure the danger was over, breathing heavily.
“Hero, thank you!”
Kaxiu took a breath and walked over to thank Xu Yin.
Kahn sobbed and threw himself into Xu Yin's arms: "Brother Hero, thank you so much! Otherwise, Kahn and my brother might have died!"
Xu Yin touched his head: "It's okay, it's all over!"
Simon and the others were very surprised:
“Brother hero, I didn’t expect your skills to be so powerful!”
“I saw the hero looking thin and weak before, but I didn’t expect him to be so explosive.”
Xu Yin blushed when she was praised: "I don't dare to take it seriously! It's just that she has great strength, but everything else is just average."
"Hey! You're so humble!" Ka Xiu patted her on the shoulder, "You can stand up to a few of us."
