Riding the wind of rebirth

Chapter 106 Mountain Stream
The next morning, just after dawn, a roar suddenly sounded in the valley: "Damn!"

It took Zhou Zhi and Yan Xiao a lot of effort to move last night. Zhou Zhi directly cut the plastic sheeting and moisture-proof padding under the pad from the main body. Yang He and Mu Ruyun disassembled the tarpaulin above, and everyone cooperated with each other tacitly.

Afterwards, the mosquito-proof smoke piles must be rearranged.

Although the girls pushed me and pushed you when making a statement, they did it very hard.

When everyone lay down again, they couldn't laugh anymore.

Then everyone began to predict how Wei Fei would react when he woke up the next morning, and he was excited for a while before falling asleep, and he still hasn't woken up yet.

Wei Fei fell into a drowsy sleep in the morning, opened his eyes for a while, then closed them again, ready to stare for a while longer.

But after closing his eyes, the logical subconscious of the engineering dog kept reminding him that something was wrong...something was wrong...something was wrong...

I suddenly realized that what I saw just now was the sky when I opened my eyes. Where is the tarpaulin above?

Yijiling woke up completely with fright, and sat up only to realize that he was sleeping on the grass alone!

He scrambled and stood up, shit, why is the camp more than ten meters upstream of him? !

Running to the new camp, grabbing Yan Xiao's collar: "Why did you come here?"

Yan Xiao didn't forget to talk nonsense in a daze: "We've been sleeping here all this time...don't tell me to sleep for a while..."

"Impossible, then why am I sleeping underneath alone?"

"I don't know... You woke up in the middle of the night and said you were going to sleep, you couldn't even pull your elbows..."

Wei Fei threw Yan Xiao away, and pulled his elbow up again: "Elbow! What's going on?"

Zhou Zhi was also in a daze: "You must be sleepwalking, a long dream..."

"Impossible! They were lying together last night!"

Yang and the honest boy were still lying down, murmuring: "That was also a dream, did you still dream that the salt mouse told a ghost story and was beaten..."

Everyone had already woken up when Wei Fei ran over to pull Yan Xiao, and now they couldn't pretend anymore after breaking their skills, and laughed together.

"You guys!" Wei Fei felt very sad and angry: "It's not too troublesome!"

Yan Xiao laughed and rolled on the mat: "You snore so loudly yourself! It's so loud that everyone can't fall asleep, and it's not easy to wake you up. We're the only ones who moved."

"Did I snore last night?"

"Normal, Ren Xiaopu snores a lot, you were too tired yesterday."

Mu Ruyun smiled and said, "Plane, you should be happy."

"What?"

"Because you slept until dawn and didn't wake up in the middle of the night..."

"I rely on..."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

……

……

After washing up, it's breakfast, and luncheon meat and fried eggs are served with potatoes and corn.

Then we continued our journey and moved upstream along the mountain stream.

The mountain flowers are romantic along the way, and the flowing water is gurgling. As long as you stop and squat down for a while, you can find many animals in the stream, such as small crabs, shrimps, and various stream fishes that you have never seen before.

Those fish are very small, and many of them are very beautiful, such as sand loach, rainbow loach, small stone crawler, squid, peach blossom... There is also a beautiful small fish like squid but with black stripes on its body, Zhou Zhi can't call it When he named it, Lao Mu called it "Wudao Pomfret".

In the bamboo forests in many places, there are some egrets inhabiting.

On the high rocks, pay attention, there are often cliff eagles standing, watching everyone with haughty eyes.

Wei Fei also found a squirrel's head on the road. The incision under the head was still fresh. After watching it for a while, everyone agreed that it was leftover from the Yaying.

There are also many mountain fruits, sheep excrement rice, Artemisia seedlings, wild sweet potatoes...

Several wild lilies were in bloom, and Yan Xiao picked them off and gave them to some girls. Zhou Zhi said that the lilies were edible, but the students didn't believe it.

So Zhou Zhi used all his strength to dig out the lily's roots from the rock crevice, but it turned out to be really inedible, too small.

There were too many ferns, and under the cedar forest, near the road, ferns grew very thickly.

Jiachuan is the kingdom of ferns, and there are several kinds of ferns that can be eaten. One is fat and tender, which is originally a specialty of this place.

There are also vetches, the beans of which are peeled off to make a sort of little whistle that blows.

Gradually, a crown of flowers appeared on the girls' heads, which Zhou Zhi wove for them out of young eucalyptus strips, rhododendrons, amaryllis, and the like.

The boys also had a crown of eucalyptus leaves on their heads, and each of them had an extra bamboo stick in their hands, so they had to hit each other a few times if they had nothing to do.

The extra bamboo sticks came out after the discovery of two snakes, one is a cauliflower snake and the other is a black-headed snake.

The appearance of the first black-tailed snake frightened Feng Xueshan's face, but by the time the boys rushed over, the snake had already walked away.

The second one was quite fat, and Mu Ruyun said it was edible, but Zhou Zhi said that there were too many reptile parasites, and they didn't have the leisure to slowly stew the soup, so they let it go amidst the screams of the girls.

When camping that afternoon, Mu Ruyun found a hill, away from the big stream below the mountain, climbed along a small stream that flowed into it, and came to an old open dam next to an old mud-walled house foundation in the middle of the mountain. .

The households here moved away in unknown year and month, leaving only a few mud walls in the house, but there are a few very old fruit trees around the open dam and behind the mud walls.

……

"There!" Jiang Shuyi raised her head under the tree, pointing Zhou Zhi to where the ripe plums are.

The same thing happened under several old fruit trees.

Such a place can only be found by natives like Lao Mu.

In addition to plums, there are also peaches and bayberries.

Zhou Zhi cut a few suitable bamboos, tied the lower part of one end of the bamboo with rattan, cut the upper part, stuffed a branch to let it open, and made a "fruit picking pole".

The boys climbed up the tree, and the girls pointed out under the tree. Then the boy stretched out the pole, clamped the branch where the fruit was, and disturbed it, and the ripe plums rushed down.

There are many varieties of plums, and there are two kinds here, one is green, and those that ripen will turn yellow; the other is red, and the pulp inside is yellow.

Wei Fei didn't go up the tree either. He picked up fruits with the girls under the tree, rubbed them twice with his hand and put them in his mouth.

"You don't pay attention to hygiene on the plane! Don't you even wash it?" Jiang Shuyi and his friends are now familiar with each other, and they are relatively comfortable speaking.

"It's pretty clean. Is there any dust here?" Wei Fei spread a yellow plum in the palm of his hand and handed it to Jiang Shuyi: "It's very ripe, so sweet."

Jiang Shuyi took the plums and put them in the small pot: "Let's eat together later."

Yan Xiao is tall and very flexible. He is like a gibbon on the white peach tree. He stretches out a bamboo pole to clamp a peach handle, and shouts to the following: "Be careful, it's coming—"

"Wait a minute..." Ye Xin, Feng Xueshan, Zhang Xinyi, and He Yongmei held a piece of plastic cloth under the tree to adjust their position: "Okay!"

Yan Xiao was impatient, and the few peaches that fell off the tree just now were broken, and they were still the most mature white-flowered peaches, which made Wei Fei even cry out what a pity.

Now the girls came up with this method to protect the peaches that fell from the tree.

Several peaches fell from that section of the branch one by one onto the plastic cloth, which made the girls cheer.

It was a bumper harvest, and soon on the small plastic sheet in front of the camp, there were more than a dozen peaches, a pile of plums and wild bayberries.

Everyone went to wash in the creek behind the house, while Zhou Zhi and Feng Xueshan started cooking.

In addition to the fruit trees, there are also some scattered vegetables here. Zhou Zhi found a pumpkin. Except for a few small pumpkins, the pumpkin tips and pumpkin flowers can be eaten.

The same is true for loofah. Although loofah is basically old, the tip of the leaf is also a good dish.

There is also the blood-skinned vegetable that must be found in front of the farmhouse in Jiachuan. It grows very lush, and one-third of the buds and leaves are a big pile.

Cooking is more delicate today. When the rice is ready, stir it up with chopsticks to let the water vapor go away. Use canned anchovies, lard, and wild onion knots to make fried rice.

The frying pan was occupied by Zhou Zhi, and Feng Xueshan used the rice cooker to blanch the bloody vegetables and then make cold salad.

When the fried rice was ready, the rice pot was vacated again, and the fried rice was poured into the rice pot to free up the wok. Feng Xueshan made stir-fried pumpkin flowers with melon leaf tip and stir-fried tender pumpkin.

Still invincible with tacit understanding.

When the rice is ready, everyone eats under the shade of the trees.

The meal was full of oil and gas, and everyone ate very happily. They all thought that fried rice was the most suitable for a picnic, and asked Zhou Zhi to come later in the evening.

"Then let's eat fried rice with eggs." Feng Xueshan said with a smile, "Add bracken and sauerkraut soup."

"The sauerkraut soup removes the fishy smell, and you can add mountain crabs."

"After dinner, let's go catch crabs in the stream!"

The creek on the mountain is a bit different from the one down the mountain. Some places look like small waterfalls. The color of the crabs is also a little different. Their backs are iron red and they are much bigger.

But it's also powerful, and being pinched is not an ordinary pain. After Fang Wenyu's finger was bleeding because of his unskilled work, no one among the girls dared to touch the stone except Ye Xin.

In fact, there are not many crabs hidden under the rocks. Those crabs are out for tourism, and the rock crevices on both sides of the creek are their real homes.

But even Yan Xiao didn't dare to mess around, afraid of touching snakes, those places were the hunting grounds of Yang He, Mu Ruyun, Zhou Zhi and Ye Xin.

And Fang Wenyu gave up after being caught, and together with Yan Xiao took the girls to play with small crabs in the middle of the stream.

Jiang Shuyi told everyone that if you hit the rocks in the stream with stones, the fish underneath may be stunned, and when the rocks are lifted, they will flow out and can be caught downstream.

Yan Xiao and Fang Wenyu didn't believe it, but they didn't mind giving it a try. After hitting it twice, a small crucian carp turned out of the water.

"Shu Yi, you still have this hand?" Fang Wenyu felt unbelievable.

Jiang Shuyi just pursed her lips and smiled.

"There's this one here?" Zhou Zhi immediately noticed the species of the fish: "Old Mu, are there fields around?"

These mountain streams are generally full of stream fish, and crucian carp is a semi-domestic fish. Except for rivers and streams, the mid-mountain generally has the most fields and reservoirs, otherwise there will be no spawning grounds.

"No land..." Mu Ruyun was recalling: "It seems to be a half-dried fish pond. The farmers there used to prevent drought..."

"What the hell are we still playing here?" Zhou Zhi immediately said, "Go there!"
