Chapter 273 271. Green Plants
Yun Qi also knew that he was careless just now, but thinking that the two of them had shoveled so many green plants before, it was fine, so he felt that the problem was not big.

"After digging for so long, I haven't found a source of water, and I don't know why this land is so wet. Could it be because of this kind of green plants?"

"Since we didn't find anything after digging like this, let's just go around this green plant and see if we find anything." Si Cheng stood up and looked around the area of ​​this green plant, thinking of walking a little further to see if there was anything else. discovery.

"There are no snakes here. Could it be that this plant is the nemesis of snakes?" Yun Qi picked up the dead plants in front of him as he walked, the two of them did not walk through the green plants, but walked around their edges .

"When we go back, dig some and bring them home for Uncle Nanyao and the others to study. Maybe some people in the village know this plant, but we haven't seen it."

"Brother Cheng, are there some white dots in front?" Yun Qi asked him, pointing in a direction ahead.

"Go, go over and have a look." Si Cheng didn't see clearly either, not sure if it was the fruit of a plant or what.

For the sake of safety, the two of them still used wooden sticks to explore the way ahead, not daring to run over easily, but went forward step by step.

"It looks like an egg." The closer the target Sicheng was, the clearer he could see it.

"What kind of egg? Could it be a snake egg?" Yun Qi was also a little uncertain, after all, no animals were found in this area.

"Looking at the size, it shouldn't be. It might be a pheasant or a wild duck egg."

When the two walked in, they were both stunned by the number of eggs in front of them.

It was relatively far away before, but I could see some white spots vaguely. When I got closer, I found that under the cover of these green plants, there were densely packed duck eggs underneath.

"That's too much, and it looks relatively fresh." Yun Qi picked up a duck egg and looked at it, then shook it left and right, she really didn't know how to check if the egg was new or not.

"Take out a bowl and knock it a couple of times, don't you know?" Si Cheng would not judge whether a duck egg is fresh or not based on its appearance, so he suggested.

Yun Qi really took out a big bowl from the space, picked out a few duck eggs and cracked them open, the yolks of each duck egg were still intact.

"This is really a treasure hunt. There are so many duck eggs here that can make a lot of salted duck eggs." Yun Qi couldn't help but salivate when he thought of the oily salted duck eggs.

Although Pinghe Village raises a lot of poultry, most of them raise chickens, and very few raise ducks. Yunqi's family doesn't raise ducks, so they usually rely on the stock in the space if they want to eat duck meat.

"It just so happened that you were complaining that the duck eggs in the space were almost finished, so take some of them in now." Si Cheng looked at the large piece of duck eggs and reminded her.

"It's not good, our life is much better than the people in the village now, there is no need to take advantage of this." Yun Qi looked at so many duck eggs, although her hands were itchy, and she wanted to put them into the space, but she still I think it is better to leave it to the village.

"It's okay, I only charge a small portion, not to mention that we can't take all of them back with so many duck eggs, and we don't know when we will go into the mountain next time." It is too far away, and it will take a few days to go back and forth.

"Then let's go a little further and see if there are any more in front, and then we'll collect them from the other end." Yun Qi won't hesitate after hearing what he said, if he doesn't take all the duck eggs away this time, Then next time you come here, these duck eggs may not be good.

"No, why do you only see duck eggs but not wild ducks?" Yun Qi walked forward for a while before thinking of this question.

"You forgot that this place is not far from the place where we just had a duel with the tiger. The animals nearby have avoided it long ago." Si Cheng didn't think it was very strange. The instinct of animals would make them cry when they heard the tiger's roar. Dodge far away first.

"I don't know if these wild ducks will fly back, or it would be a pity if the duck eggs we can't transport are left here and spoiled." A deeper understanding, this time even if the people who came over filled their backpacks, they would not be able to carry them all.

"That's it." Seeing that he had gone far enough, Si Cheng asked Yun Qi to find out the empty bamboo baskets that had been stored in the space before, and began to pick up duck eggs into the bamboo baskets.

The two of them stopped after picking up six big bamboo baskets full, Yun Qi rubbed his waist, he didn't expect to be so tired picking up duck eggs.

"It's almost there, save some duck eggs, and if these wild ducks come back, they can hatch at that time." Yun Qi thought that if he had a chance in the future, he could still go to this place to hunt some wild ducks back, even if he couldn't, he would be able to hatch by then. You can also pick up some duck eggs.

"Let's go, we've been out for long enough, they should be worried if we don't go back." Si Cheng looked at the watch on his wrist, and the two of them had been delayed here for nearly two hours without knowing it.

"Then shall we go forward to explore tomorrow or go back after picking up the duck eggs." Yun Qi put a few baskets of duck eggs into the space, and did not forget to ask curiously.

"My idea is to take advantage of the prestige of the tiger in this land now, let's check the surrounding area, and since the tiger makes its home here, there must be enough water nearby." Si Cheng still felt that the water source must be nearby. , because he could feel the humidity in the air here.

"Actually, it's the big lake at the entrance of our village. We don't need to look for water sources at all." Yun Qi couldn't understand why Si Cheng was so obsessed with finding water sources? "And even if we find a water source, it's so far away from our village, we can't use it."

"Although we can't use it, other people can use it." Sicheng also thought of finding the water source on the spur of the moment, and he really didn't think about it before.

Seeing his wife looking at him with puzzled eyes, he patted her head and said, "Look, Captain Liu and the others are all opening up wasteland in Xinshan Village and preparing to settle down, and there will be more refugees going there soon." This side is flooding, because we have abundant water resources here, and it will definitely be overcrowded, and then it will become a problem for these people to settle down."

"But it's too dangerous to be in this deep mountain, and no one will think of coming here." Yun Qi is really not optimistic about this place. It's really hard to compete with these animals in the deep mountain for territory in this kind of place. Not a simple matter.

"Sometimes you have to believe in people's potential, maybe a new city will appear here in the future."

After hearing this, Yun Qi couldn't deny it, "Then let's stay here for a few more days, maybe there will be other surprises. Let's go, let's go to the front to pick up some duck eggs and go back. Let's add to the big guys today." meal."

After speaking, they took out a woven bag from the space and continued their egg picking business.
