The world of beasts breeds mountains and rivers [farming]
Work related (62)
Go to the tree, don't you worry about me. "
While talking, Ren Heyin slid off Yunming's body and walked aside with the basket on his back, "Boss, you go, I'm climbing a tree."
Yun Ming looked at him, "You go first."
"Wait." Ren Heyin flicked out his nails, hugged the tree, and quickly climbed up.
His skills are better now than last year. He climbed up the tree very nimbly, but in the blink of an eye, he climbed to a height of more than ten meters.
He sat on a safe tree branch and gave Yunming an OK gesture, "Boss, I'm fine, you can go."
Yun Ming nodded and accelerated to run.
His figure was so huge that the flock had no time to react, and they didn't start commotion until he got close to him.
Ren Heyin sat on a tree branch and looked into the distance, and it was the first time he found that the description of tigers entering the flock was so intuitive.
Yun Ming jumped into the flock, and the flock didn't dare to run away at all. Yun Ming slapped the ewes he was looking for one by one, and within a few breaths, he knocked down 38 ewes, most of them It is a ewe that has just given birth to a lamb or is pregnant.
After the filming, Yun Ming glanced around the shivering sheep, and only growled softly when he saw that there was no target he wanted.
Most of the remaining sheep in the flock came to their senses and ran away in a hurry.
In such a humid spring weather, these sheep ran in a daze, bringing up billows of smoke and dust, and more grass blades were in the dust.
Ren Heyin saw the sheep fleeing, and shouted from a distance: "Boss, can I come down?"
"Come down."
Ren Heyin slid down the tree with the basket on his back, and quickly ran towards Yunming.
Wang Shan ran a dead horse, he seemed to be very close, and Ren Heyin ran at almost full speed for more than ten minutes before reaching Yun Ming.
As soon as he ran over, he put his hands on his knees and panted, and there were traces of sweat on his black temples.
Yun Ming came over to help him unload the basket on his back, "You don't need to run so fast."
"It's okay, just exercise." Ren Heyin looked at the sheep lying on the ground, and asked, "These are all ewes that have passed out."
"Mostly, there is also a ram, which is used as the leader."
Sheep are easier to control, just like horses, as long as the leading sheep or horse is restrained, the flock behind will follow, even if some of them fall behind, just chase them away.
Ren Heyin wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked, "How far is it from the tribe? How long will it take at our normal walking speed?"
"Walk for two days."
"Two days is fine, Boss, or we can drive these sheep back slowly? There are so many sheep, it's hard to carry them all back. If I hurry back, I can see if I can find any special plants on the road."
They have explored every corner near the tribe this year, and haven't found any plants or minerals that can be eaten or used for a long time.
It's so far away from the tribe here, and it's spring again, maybe we can find something.
Yun Ming didn't object, "If you like it, we'll take it slowly."
Ren Heyin went to see the sheep, "How long will it take for these sheep to wake up? Let's tie them up with vines first, so that they won't run around after waking up."
Ren Heyin took a look, "I don't knock too hard, I can wake up in about an hour."
"Then you look at these sheep, and I'll cut the vines."
"I'll go, you take a break."
Ren Heyin quickly shook his head, seeking truth from facts, "If the sheep suddenly wakes up, I can't control it."
"No," Yun Ming rubbed his head and said, "They won't wake up before I come back."
So Ren Heyin stayed where he was and rested, while Yunming went to chop the vines.
He was really tired from running, and when Yun Ming left, he sat down and gasped for breath.
The batch of sheep caught this year is larger than the one they caught last year. It is rare that after a long winter, this flock of sheep is still fat and strong. I don't know if there is a subtle difference between the populations.
It may also be that these wool hairs are fluffy, and they look extra large.
Ren Heyin went to observe the wool, and it happened to be spring again, and they could shave the wool again when they went back. After the wool was washed with alkali, it would be good for weaving some rope. Fur socks are much more breathable and won't stinky feet.
Ren Heyin was still staring at the flock of sheep and playing tricks on them, Yun Ming soon came back after cutting down the vines.
The two worked together to tie the sheep to the tree.
"Let's take a rest first, and prepare to leave in the afternoon."
Ren Heyin took out the taro and sausages prepared in advance, and they ate the food they brought with them at noon, and then grilled in the evening.
After the two finished eating, Yunming asked, "Will you take a nap?"
"I feel all right, I haven't done anything all morning."
"Sleep, I'll call you later." Yun Ming took him to the side to wash his hands, "The sheep haven't woken up so soon."
Yunming changed back to the animal form, Ren Heyin lay on him, with the blue sky and white clouds above his head, and Yunming's huge animal form under him, he wanted to talk to Yunming, but he fell asleep almost as soon as he lay down, and he slept extraordinarily sweet.
This time Ren Heyin didn't know how long he had slept, he was woken up by the bleating of sheep.
"Boss, is the sheep awake?"
"Wake up. Have you had enough sleep?" Yun Ming turned his head, as if if Ren Heyin hadn't had enough sleep, he would knock the sheep unconscious again.
Ren Heyin nodded, sat up from him, and yawned, "I haven't slept so comfortably for a long time."
Yun Ming flicked his tail and patted the ground lightly.
The two went to look at the flock, and the flock was terrified. After sensing Yunming's breath, they didn't even dare to run, and were so frightened that they lay on the ground trembling.
Ren Heyin turned to look at Yunming, "Boss, why don't you restrain your breath?"
"Ok?"
Yun Ming restrained himself, but the sheep were still trembling.
Ren Heyin was helpless, "These sheep are too timid, wait a while."
He waited for a while, then asked again: "Would it be better to feed them some grass?"
"you try?"
Ren Heyin cut some fodder nearby and fed the sheep one by one.
The sheep were terrified at first, but gradually got better after eating the grass from his hands.
Ren Heyin looked at Yunming, "Shall I untie it directly?"
"Untie it directly. With me in control, this flock of sheep dare not run around."
The two untied the rope, and the flock of sheep were really well-behaved. They only followed the direction they were chasing, and did not dare to run away.
Ren He calmed down a bit.
They drove the sheep to the direction of the tribe, caught several birds and picked up many eggs along the way.
The two also saw a lot of wild vegetables on the road.
Most wild vegetables don't taste very good, either sour, astringent, bitter, and some have a strange smell.
The fiber of wild vegetables is relatively thick, and it will absorb a lot of water when it is decomposed. If you accidentally eat too much, it is easy to cause constipation.
This is why there are so many wild vegetables in the wild. If they are willing to work hard to collect them, they will not be short of food all year round. They are also willing to spend a lot of time and energy on planting.
After satisfying the basic need of food, the two are willing to work harder and live a better life.
"There are a lot of bird's claw dishes here!"
On the way, Ren Heyin saw a large piece of bird's claw vegetables.
Bird's claw vegetable, as the name suggests, looks a bit like a bird's claw. It usually grows in clumps in the grass. It tastes tender and sweet, and it tastes basically dregs-free. It is a delicious vegetable.
The sheep walking in front couldn't help it, and lowered their heads to chew a bite or two.
Yun Ming said: "Pick more, let's carry some back."
"I'll cut it with a hatchet, it's faster."
Their hatchets had just been sharpened before they set off, and the blades were sharp and sharp, and they cut a large piece.
Ren Heyin specially staggered the cuttings, trying to keep some of the roots of the bird's claw vegetables. After three to five days, these bird's claw vegetables can grow again.
The two picked half of the baskets one after another.
Ren Heyin said: "This kind of bird's claw vegetable is half-dried in the sun, together with the radish, marinated with salt and spices and chili powder, it is very good to eat as a small pickle."
The radishes they planted are growing well, and within a month, those radishes will begin to produce radishes. After two months, when the radishes are harvested, some of them must be made into dried radishes, and the other part must be made into pickles.
When he was a child, he often ate a kind of food called Babaocai, which is roughly pickled radish, beans, carob, kelp, etc. It is delicious to drink porridge.There is no kelp and beans here, and local specialties such as bamboo shoots and bird's claws are also good.
The two walked all afternoon, and when it was dusk, they found a place that was more suitable for camping, poured out the vegetables and mushrooms they picked today, and counted the inventory.
They picked a lot of wild vegetables, besides bird's claw vegetables, there were several kinds of wild vegetables with young leaves, and even wild onions were dug into two large clumps.
Yun Ming asked: "How?"
"Let's be a beggar. After washing these wild vegetables, mix them with seasonings and stuff them into the beggar's belly. You can also borrow the meaty taste of the beggar and add a delicious taste to the beggar."
The taste of wild birds is actually not that good. Most species are not as plump as the white flowers and birds raised by Ren Heyin and the others. Many wild birds are very meaty. It doesn't take a lot of effort. It feels like it can only fill the stomach, not a delicacy.
Ren Heyin put the big non-toxic leaves he picked on the ground, cut onion, ginger and garlic on it, and mixed spices, chili powder and salt with oil.
Yunming brought back the bird that had been slaughtered and its head and tail viscera removed. Ren Heyin rubbed the seasoning all over the inside and outside of the bird, and finally stuffed the washed vegetables and the remaining seasoning into the bird's stomach.
Beggars are easier to roast. Today, more birds were caught, and the birds were bigger. Each weighed at least five or six catties. With such a weight, it was difficult to put the bird in the fire.
Ren Heyin looked at the sky, and since he didn't have to do anything tonight, he simply built a kiln with Yunming, intending to follow the practice of kiln chickens and make a kiln bird.
The steps in front of the kiln bird are similar to those of the beggar chicken. The bird is wrapped in big leaves and covered with a layer of mud.
The following steps are different. They have to build a kiln and keep burning the kiln, then put the bird wrapped in mud into the kiln, and then put firewood on it to continue burning. The kiln is sealed.
In this way, the heat will be lost as little as possible, the bird in the mud ball will be heated more evenly, the gravy will retain more juice, and it will maintain a fresh and tender taste.
It is spring now, and the night is still very cold. When night falls, the cold wind blows, making people's foreheads feel cold.
Ren Heyin had no choice but to build another fire, and it would be better to warm up.
"There's a lot of dead grass here. Let's make a grass nest at night. It's more comfortable to make a grass nest."
Yun Ming said: "No need, my animal shape is too big."
"Let's lay it out. Spring is too humid. I feel that after sitting for a while, there will be water under my buttocks." Ren Heyin yawned, "Toast the floor first, and then spread it later."
Both of them have strong hands-on skills, and there are a lot of firewood and hay nearby. After a while, the two of them collected enough firewood and hay.
Ren Heyin lit a huge fire and roasted the soil underneath.
After baking, the soil will be much drier and the bugs underneath will be burned to death.
Yunming's fur is thick, and he doesn't care about those bugs, but without bugs, he must sleep more comfortably.
The kiln bird was almost cold soon, Ren Heyin dug up the soil and pulled out several mud balls with a hatchet.
The surface of the mud ball is completely dry, and there are cracks one by one on it.
Ren Heyin knocked the dirt open, "I'll open one first to see, if it doesn't work, we'll burn it for a while."
"It should be fine, I can smell the fragrance."
"No way, you can smell it when it's so tight?" Ren Heyin knocked the mud ball open neatly, and the big leaf wrapped in bird meat inside had been roasted and turned yellow. "It seems to be about the same, the color is so even."
Ren Heyin was tearing off the big leaves with ten fingers. The leaves were very hot, so he had to stop for a while.
Yun Ming said, "I'll come."
Yun Ming stretched out his hand and pulled the big leaf away neatly.
The bird meat inside was steaming instantly, and a strong fragrance wafted out, and the golden skin was very oily.
Ren Heyin has made so many calls to call flowers and birds, and it is rare for him to be so successful.
He took a deep breath and said, "I can already see the white gas on it, it smells so good!"
The two of them also took apart the second mud ball, eating two tonight is almost enough, and there are two more that can be eaten tomorrow morning.
The water source was nearby, the two of them washed their hands, came back and waited for a while, Yun Ming went straight to dismantle the bird meat into pieces.
The gravy inside the bird meat was very juicy and the meat was very tender. Ren Heyin took one of the wings, grabbed and bit a piece, and gave Yunming a thumbs up, "Sweet."
Yunming left two wings for him and ate a piece of meat.
The bird meat was really delicious, and the two of them sat by the fire and ate it. Ren Heyin broke off a tree branch and used it as chopsticks to eat the bird's claw and wild vegetables in the bird's stomach.
Bird's claw vegetables and other wild vegetables are sealed in the bird's belly, and the top is covered with fat and meat aroma, which is very delicious.
The greasyness of the bird meat before was blended with wild vegetables, which is perfect.
Ren Heyin ate half a bird and wild vegetables mixed with flour, and couldn't hold on.
Yun Ming ate the other bird and a half and the remaining wild vegetables, slowly and gracefully, so much food seemed to fill his stomach slightly.
Ren Heyin hugged his stomach, humming when he was about to sleep, "I feel like I've eaten too much, why don't we go for a walk?"
"Let's go take a shower." Yunming pulled him up.
"Is it all right to keep these sheep here?"
"It doesn't matter, they dare not run, and other beasts dare not come." Yunming pulled him up, "Which hot spring do you want to go to? Just go to the hot spring in the grassland we are familiar with?"
"That's it, we haven't gone there to look at the stars for a long time."
It was rare that the weather was so clear and the starry sky was bright, so they could go to watch the stars and eat.
The two of them went to take a good bath, and when they came back, they covered the ground with hay and had a good night's sleep.
The next day, Ren Heyin woke up early in the morning. He didn't know if he woke up too early. When he opened his eyes, he felt as if he was blind. There was thick fog everywhere in front of him, and the visibility was no more than five meters.
"Boss, it's foggy!" Ren Heyin rubbed his eyes, "Why is it so foggy today?"
"It's good when the sun comes out." Yun Ming opened his eyes lazily, "Would you like to sleep for a while?"
Ren Heyin lay on Yun Ming's body, feeling drowsy for a while, but he was full of sleep and refreshed, so he couldn't fall asleep.
He shook his head, "Forget it, let's not sleep anymore, let's get up."
The fire has not been extinguished, and the food was prepared last night, and it can be eaten after a little heat.
After the two washed up, it didn't take long before they finished their breakfast.
The two put out the fire and continued to set off, driving the sheep to the tribe.
Ren Heyin was a little disappointed, "I originally expected to get up earlier and return to the tribe earlier, but now there is a heavy fog, and I can't even see the trees in front of me, so I don't know if I can return to the tribe today?"
"It doesn't matter, if it's too late, I'll let the sheep run back ahead without you in the afternoon."
Ren Heyin had to give up after hearing his comfort.
The thick fog made people really uncomfortable, and Ren Heyin felt as if someone was blindfolded.
Seeing the front was awkward, Ren Heyin could only lower his head and look down.
The sun gradually came out, and the golden sunlight could be seen through the fog, but it didn't have much effect on the fog, and the fog was still very thick.
Ren Heyin pulled out the search box and looked at the time. It was only after seven o'clock in the morning, at least after nine o'clock, and the sun rose a little before the fog would dissipate, and there was still time to wait.
The two slowly drove the sheep forward, Ren Heyin paid special attention to the ground, found a lot of wild vegetables and mushrooms on the road, and also found a very delicious wild fruit.
The sun rose higher and higher, and the fog gradually thinned.
He and Yun Ming continued to walk forward, and when they came near a stream, Ren Heyin suddenly found a plant in front of him that looked familiar.
"Boss, come and have a look, I seem to have found a new wild vegetable."
"what?"
"I don't know what it is. It should be edible. It looks familiar." Ren Heyin squatted on the ground and watched, "You have a photographic memory, see if you recognize it."
Yun Ming came over to look carefully, looked at it for a while, and said, "I don't know."
"It shouldn't be, look at this leaf, this seedling, it looks like an edible vegetable." Ren Heyin squatted on the ground, lowered his head and looked hard, "I think it looks familiar."
Yunming asked: "Could it be a common plant on earth?"
"This is really possible!" Ren Heyin cheered up, "Let me see, maybe my grandma planted it when I was young, so I think it looks familiar!"
"Can you guess what dish it is?"
"Wait, this vegetable doesn't look like it eats leaves."
Green leafy vegetables mainly eat leaves, the leaves will be very large, and basically no long stems can be seen, so green leafy vegetables are excluded.
Either it is a melon or fruit, like winter melon, pumpkin, loofah, watermelon, beans, chayote... Ren Heyin thinks it should be a melon or fruit, but he can't recognize it for a while.
"Bring up the search box and search the same thing."
"That's all it takes now."
Ren Heyin called up the search box, and the two compared items one by one, starting with winter melon.
Winter squash is not.
Neither is the pumpkin, both of which look similar, but the pumpkin seedlings are much stronger.
Not even watermelon, watermelon is easy to recognize.
Not like a loofah.
Nor are beans, which have more obvious characteristics.
The two ignored the sheep and squatted on the ground facing each other for a long time, but they still had no idea.
Ren Heyin felt that his mind was stuck, and he couldn't remember what it was.
Yunming pulled him up, "It should be melons and fruits. If we really can't think of it, we won't think about it. Let's dig it back first, and we will know when we grow up and see what it produces."
"That's all it takes now."
The two started to dig up the seedlings and soil that could be found nearby, put them in the basket, and prepared to take them back and think about it slowly.
After digging, when the last plant was dug, Ren Heyin had a flash of inspiration and suddenly remembered, "Cucumber! Boss, come here to see if it is a cucumber?!"

☆、Iron making
Cucumber leaves are easy to identify, especially the two completely different leaves at the bottom near the root.
After careful comparison, Yun Ming nodded and said, "It is indeed a cucumber."
"I just said yes, the characteristics are so obvious that there should be no mistake." Ren Heyin couldn't help being excited, "I really didn't expect it to be cucumber, why is cucumber here?"
"I don't know, take Miao back first."
"It's already in the basket." Ren Heyin stared at the green melon seedlings in his hand, "It would be great if we could also find all kinds of pumpkins, winter melons, watermelons, and loofahs."
"It's not that easy, I'll look for it slowly in the future. Go, go back first."
Having found new vegetables, Ren Heyin was overjoyed, and when he went back, his steps were extraordinarily brisk.
As soon as he speeded up, the whole team moved faster. Just after noon, they reached the range of the tribe.
They were driving such a large flock of sheep, and there was too much movement.
The hunting team originally thought there were prey, but they didn't expect to come and see them.
Quan raised his voice and shouted all the way: "Where did you catch the sheep? I've never seen it before."
"I caught it a long way away." Ren Heyin wiped off his sweat, "How is the result of your hunting today?"
"Not bad, everyone has something to gain."
The conversation between the two parties was far away, and the hunting team continued hunting, while Ren Heyin and Yun Ming drove the sheep to the tribe.
Their sheepfolds have been repaired a long time ago, and now it is enough to drive the sheep in and settle them down.
The flock of sheep walked all the way back and grazed all the way, and they were already full, so there was no need to feed them.
The two didn't care about going back to the tribe, so they hurriedly carried the baskets on their backs to plant the cucumber seedlings in the vegetable field, watered them thoroughly, and then looked up at the sky, ready to go back to the tribe.
It was late, the sun had set on the other side of the mountain, and there was a brilliant sunset glow in the sky. The two returned to the tribe side by side.
"I don't know how the cucumbers grow here, how will they taste? If the cucumbers on our side are not grown properly, they will actually taste a bit bitter, especially the end near the stem of the melons will taste very bitter."
"It should be good."
Ren Heyin stretched his waist, "It doesn't matter, let's plant it first. There are more vegetables in the vegetable field. I don't know when we will find eggplants and beans."
"The previous Mingdou don't count?"
"Never mind, beans are another species." Ren Heyin made a great wish, "If we can't find them, we can spend money on the search box and buy a batch."
The two caught the sheep back, and went to catch white flowers and birds the next day.
There are many white flowers and birds nearby, so you don't have to run so far.
This time, the white flower bird is also specially catching the female bird, and after catching it, it is specially used to lay eggs.
They didn't calculate the time well last year, and they couldn't use the batch of white-flowered birds that had been raised for a long time to hatch the chicks. This year, they need to make preparations, try to hatch the chicks before the snowy day, and raise the offspring of the current batch of birds next year.
This way of domestication continues, maybe they will gradually get white flowers and birds like chickens.
With more things to do, they got busy again.
On this day, Qing approached Ren Heyin and asked, "Yin, the rice seedlings have grown so tall, when shall we plant rice?"
Ren Heyin would go to the farmland every day to inspect the growth conditions of various crops. He also knew what the rice looks like. In his opinion, the current rice seedlings can barely be transplanted, but in fact it is not the best time yet. .
"Wait a little longer. The rice seedlings should be ready for transplanting in about five or six days or ten days. The current rice seedlings are not high enough." Ren Heyin stretched out his hand and gestured, "At least we can't prepare for transplanting until the height of our calf."
"What about the fertilizer, do you want to put fertilizer into the field now?"
"Not yet. Usually wait for the rice seedlings to grow in the field before preparing to fertilize. What's more, we have so many rice fields and there is not enough fertilizer. Let's wait for a while and save enough fertilizer."
If you want to grow crops well, both water and fertilizer are the top priority. If there is no fertilizer, the yield will not be high.
Ren Heyin's rice grew so well last year, and the manure they piled up in the field is indispensable. The ecological planting method makes the fertility of their field much higher than that of other places. The fish in the rice field eat grass and insects. The rice brought a lot of help.
Qing breathed a sigh of relief after asking clearly, "That's good, I'll tell them. We've never grown rice before, so we're always a little worried because we're not sure about the planting time."
"Don't worry, I'm in the tribe, it's almost as if I'm watching our rice."
"Then I'll tell them." Qing smiled, "You guys are so busy these days, what are you busy doing?"
"It's mainly hunting and gathering. After we finished hunting during this period, we have to work on the farm again. We found a piece of plums on the mountain. Is the tribe interested? If so, we will go and pick them together."
According to the time calculation, the plums on the mountain should not be ripe yet, but most of them have grown green plums.
Ren Heyin wanted to take some time to look at such a large piece of plums, but he didn't know how many plums they could pick at that time. After they picked some plums and stored them, they would be very good for cooking or drinking.
Qing and the others have lived here for so long, Ren Heyin knew which piece it was when he mentioned it, he quickly waved his hand, "No, no, no, that plum is very sour, we don't want it anymore."
Ren Heyin thought for a while, "It's okay. If it turns yellow, the plums won't be too sour. Sometimes they are picked for cooking, or pickled into salty plums and sweet plums. It's good as a snack."
Qing showed a sore tooth expression, "You can bear this sour taste, but we can't. Some people in the tribe have picked it up and eaten it before, and it can even make your teeth sour after eating it."
Ren Heyin said: "Then we will not be polite."
"You're welcome, pick as much as you want, not in the tribe."
Ren Heyin had already set his sights on Mei Lin, and pulled Yun Ming over the next day.
This plum grove is no longer the previous appearance of plum trees full of plum blossoms and dark fragrance everywhere.
The plum tree is full of leaves, and the branches are full of fruits. A tree of green plums looks heavy. If it is other fruits, this scene can make people feel the joy of a good harvest.The sour greengage hangs here, and the joy has to be discounted.
Ren Heyin was eager to try, "Boss, check if there are any yellowed plums, almost yellowed ones are fine, as long as the kernels inside are hardened, we will pick some and eat them with cold salad."
Yun Ming expressed his objection for the first time, "Can you eat such sour plums?"
"Yes, why can't you? I'll mix some chili later, it'll be cool to dip the chili into the water and eat it. If you don't believe me, you can try it later."
Mixing unripe fruit with dipping water is the way to eat it in Yunnan, but Ren Heyin and the others also have it in their hometown.
When he was young, he was still relatively poor in material things. The children were all greedy and had nothing to eat all day long. Sour fruit was just enough, mixed with salt, salt and chili powder, mainly to make the mouth taste a little bit.
When Ren Heyin was a child, he liked this stuff quite a bit, and his grandma would mix it for him in spring, but he never tasted it when he grew up.
Yun Ming was skeptical about the taste of this food, and at Ren Heyin's request, he found a lot of plums for him.
The fruits in this world are generally relatively large, and even immature greengages look like the size of a ping-pong ball. Ren Heyin picked a few bunches from a relatively low tree, but did not find yellow ones, and said: "Pick that much first, and after a while Time for us to come again."
"Plums are so sour, how will you eat them when you pick them?"
"First sun-dried plums, and then further processing, when the time comes to see what flavor you want to eat, and then process it into what flavor."
The two picked plums and went back. That afternoon, Ren Heyin mixed the plums with chili and dipped them in water to eat.
Yun Ming tasted a piece, and thanked Bu Min, Ren Heyin rarely saw his expression change, and was overjoyed.
Ren Heyin took a big bowl of plums and went down to tease the children.
The children are very curious and fearless. When Ren Heyin said that these foods are delicious, they dared to reach out their paws to take them.
Yun Ming rarely said, "Eat less, sour."
Xi and the others looked at Yunming, then at Ren Heyin, and put the plums into their mouths hesitantly.
"Bah bah bah!"
Almost all the children pouted at the same time, and very few were so sour that tears came out.
Ren Heyin glanced at their wrinkled little faces like steamed stuffed buns, and couldn't help laughing, "Don't rush to spit it out, put it in your mouth and taste it, maybe you will taste it later."
"It's so sour!"
"It's so spicy."
"Tsk, you don't know how to appreciate it." Ren Heyin saw that they didn't follow, he took a bamboo stick and stuck a piece of plum in his mouth to eat, "This thing is like pepper, you have to learn how to eat it, and you can only taste it if you learn how to eat it." their taste."
The children were skeptical, but slowly put the sour plums into their mouths.
Others in the tribe came back and saw that they were eating plums with great relish, so they also came to take a piece to taste.
Most people are choked by this sour and spicy plum at the first bite, and very few people have the courage to try a second bite.
A few people like Qing felt the taste of spicy plums.
Qing was still afraid of the acid, but quickly changed his mind after tasting it.
Ren Heyin expressed full admiration for those who can appreciate their own plums, "You have to eat small pieces of this thing slowly, throw a piece into your mouth when you are free, and half a day will pass before you know it."
Qing looked surprised, "I originally thought that this kind of sour plums would be unpalatable, but I didn't expect it to be okay."
"I like you to pick some by yourself. If there is no pepper, I still have it here. You can take it back and mix it. It is very delicious as a snack."
Ren Heyin has plenty of chili peppers in his hands. The chili peppers in their tea forest have been growing continuously, and they can't finish eating. He has to take some dried chili peppers. He has a lot of chili peppers in his hand, and he uses them generously. He doesn't care about that at all. 01:30 o'clock.
"That's all right, we'll pick some to pickle when we're free."
When Ren Heyin talked about the gourmet classics, he became interested, "This kind of plums can not only be used for pickling, but also for cooking. Usually, one or two plums can be used for meat dishes. The plums can not only suppress the fishy smell inside, but also add A hint of sour flavor, very delicious."
"anything else?"
"It's also delicious to make a drink, especially if you use plums to soak in water, and add a little honey, that's green plum honey water." Ren Heyin said, "This drink is best in summer, and you can have some if you're tired of eating meat. "
"By the way, do you know plum popsicles? If the plums are dried and stored, soak the plums in water in winter, then add honey, take them out at night and freeze them outside, and you can get a piece of plum popsicles the next day Now, if you are roasting by the fire, knocking on pine nuts and shaking popsicles, that day will definitely be more comfortable than you can imagine."
"There is also plum barbecue. Plum barbecue is similar to sour fruit barbecue, but it has a different aroma. If you are tired of eating sour fruit barbecue, you can also try plum barbecue. There is also plum sauce, sour plum and garlic. When eating noodles, put half a spoonful of the sauce, the sour and salty taste is absolutely unforgettable.”
What Ren Heyin said was enticing, the children were the first to be lured. They ate plums with Ren Heyin for a long time, and Qing and other adults also ate a lot.
Ren Heyin was a little complacent at first, but when he was having dinner, he stuffed a taro into his mouth, just touching his teeth, his face contorted and hissed.
Yun Ming instantly looked up at him, "What?"
"Damn it, I ate too many sour plums, and my teeth are sour." Ren Heyin's handsome face twisted, "I can't even bite taro now."
Yun Ming pinched his neck, "What should we do now?"
"There is no good way, I can only wait for the sourness to go away, let me drink a bowl of broth tonight." Ren Heyin muttered, "I didn't eat much, how could it be so sour?"
"Going down with a big bowl, how many calls are there?"
The bowls here are all big, and a bowl of plums weighs at least two or three catties.
Ren Heyin was not convinced, and muttered, "I brought a lot of plums, but I was not the only one who ate them. Everyone ate them, and I actually didn't even eat half a bowl."
"Then why are your teeth still sore?"
Ren Heyin refused to speak.
Seeing his angry appearance, Yun Ming took the boiled taro, pressed the taro into mashed taro with a spoon, poured it into the broth and stirred, "Drink some taro porridge first tonight."
"It can only be this way."
Ren Heyin was not the only one whose teeth were knocked down by sour plum sour that night.
Many people in the tribe felt sick to their teeth, and a few children were crying sourly. The parents of the family were shocked and turned pale, so they came here to ask Ren Heyin what to do. Ren Heyin waved his hand tiredly, "It's okay, just If you eat too many sour plums, you will be fine tomorrow."
Everyone did not expect sour plums to have such a great power. After being soured, most people who originally planned to pick green plums have withdrawn their minds and would rather eat less than touch this thing.
Ren Heyin was very regretful after knowing this.
The rainiest time was over, and the weather was gradually clearing up again. Ren Heyin and Yun Ming took advantage of the good weather and had nothing to do, so they took the time to cut honey.
"There is really a lot of honey this year, much more than last year." Ren Heyin stared at the honey in the bucket, "Let's cut more honey today, otherwise these bees should think about dividing their nests."
"Don't leave a few more honeycombs out?"
"Let's forget it. There are only so many honey sources nearby. Even if they succeed in dividing their nests now, these bees will starve to death in a short time. Why bother?"
Ren Heyin stared at the honey in the barrel, "I seem to smell the fragrance of peach blossoms in the honey. The peach blossoms should be blooming well this year. Let's take a look at the peach forest later, shall we?"
"The rain is good this year."
The two moved quickly, and the bee
While talking, Ren Heyin slid off Yunming's body and walked aside with the basket on his back, "Boss, you go, I'm climbing a tree."
Yun Ming looked at him, "You go first."
"Wait." Ren Heyin flicked out his nails, hugged the tree, and quickly climbed up.
His skills are better now than last year. He climbed up the tree very nimbly, but in the blink of an eye, he climbed to a height of more than ten meters.
He sat on a safe tree branch and gave Yunming an OK gesture, "Boss, I'm fine, you can go."
Yun Ming nodded and accelerated to run.
His figure was so huge that the flock had no time to react, and they didn't start commotion until he got close to him.
Ren Heyin sat on a tree branch and looked into the distance, and it was the first time he found that the description of tigers entering the flock was so intuitive.
Yun Ming jumped into the flock, and the flock didn't dare to run away at all. Yun Ming slapped the ewes he was looking for one by one, and within a few breaths, he knocked down 38 ewes, most of them It is a ewe that has just given birth to a lamb or is pregnant.
After the filming, Yun Ming glanced around the shivering sheep, and only growled softly when he saw that there was no target he wanted.
Most of the remaining sheep in the flock came to their senses and ran away in a hurry.
In such a humid spring weather, these sheep ran in a daze, bringing up billows of smoke and dust, and more grass blades were in the dust.
Ren Heyin saw the sheep fleeing, and shouted from a distance: "Boss, can I come down?"
"Come down."
Ren Heyin slid down the tree with the basket on his back, and quickly ran towards Yunming.
Wang Shan ran a dead horse, he seemed to be very close, and Ren Heyin ran at almost full speed for more than ten minutes before reaching Yun Ming.
As soon as he ran over, he put his hands on his knees and panted, and there were traces of sweat on his black temples.
Yun Ming came over to help him unload the basket on his back, "You don't need to run so fast."
"It's okay, just exercise." Ren Heyin looked at the sheep lying on the ground, and asked, "These are all ewes that have passed out."
"Mostly, there is also a ram, which is used as the leader."
Sheep are easier to control, just like horses, as long as the leading sheep or horse is restrained, the flock behind will follow, even if some of them fall behind, just chase them away.
Ren Heyin wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked, "How far is it from the tribe? How long will it take at our normal walking speed?"
"Walk for two days."
"Two days is fine, Boss, or we can drive these sheep back slowly? There are so many sheep, it's hard to carry them all back. If I hurry back, I can see if I can find any special plants on the road."
They have explored every corner near the tribe this year, and haven't found any plants or minerals that can be eaten or used for a long time.
It's so far away from the tribe here, and it's spring again, maybe we can find something.
Yun Ming didn't object, "If you like it, we'll take it slowly."
Ren Heyin went to see the sheep, "How long will it take for these sheep to wake up? Let's tie them up with vines first, so that they won't run around after waking up."
Ren Heyin took a look, "I don't knock too hard, I can wake up in about an hour."
"Then you look at these sheep, and I'll cut the vines."
"I'll go, you take a break."
Ren Heyin quickly shook his head, seeking truth from facts, "If the sheep suddenly wakes up, I can't control it."
"No," Yun Ming rubbed his head and said, "They won't wake up before I come back."
So Ren Heyin stayed where he was and rested, while Yunming went to chop the vines.
He was really tired from running, and when Yun Ming left, he sat down and gasped for breath.
The batch of sheep caught this year is larger than the one they caught last year. It is rare that after a long winter, this flock of sheep is still fat and strong. I don't know if there is a subtle difference between the populations.
It may also be that these wool hairs are fluffy, and they look extra large.
Ren Heyin went to observe the wool, and it happened to be spring again, and they could shave the wool again when they went back. After the wool was washed with alkali, it would be good for weaving some rope. Fur socks are much more breathable and won't stinky feet.
Ren Heyin was still staring at the flock of sheep and playing tricks on them, Yun Ming soon came back after cutting down the vines.
The two worked together to tie the sheep to the tree.
"Let's take a rest first, and prepare to leave in the afternoon."
Ren Heyin took out the taro and sausages prepared in advance, and they ate the food they brought with them at noon, and then grilled in the evening.
After the two finished eating, Yunming asked, "Will you take a nap?"
"I feel all right, I haven't done anything all morning."
"Sleep, I'll call you later." Yun Ming took him to the side to wash his hands, "The sheep haven't woken up so soon."
Yunming changed back to the animal form, Ren Heyin lay on him, with the blue sky and white clouds above his head, and Yunming's huge animal form under him, he wanted to talk to Yunming, but he fell asleep almost as soon as he lay down, and he slept extraordinarily sweet.
This time Ren Heyin didn't know how long he had slept, he was woken up by the bleating of sheep.
"Boss, is the sheep awake?"
"Wake up. Have you had enough sleep?" Yun Ming turned his head, as if if Ren Heyin hadn't had enough sleep, he would knock the sheep unconscious again.
Ren Heyin nodded, sat up from him, and yawned, "I haven't slept so comfortably for a long time."
Yun Ming flicked his tail and patted the ground lightly.
The two went to look at the flock, and the flock was terrified. After sensing Yunming's breath, they didn't even dare to run, and were so frightened that they lay on the ground trembling.
Ren Heyin turned to look at Yunming, "Boss, why don't you restrain your breath?"
"Ok?"
Yun Ming restrained himself, but the sheep were still trembling.
Ren Heyin was helpless, "These sheep are too timid, wait a while."
He waited for a while, then asked again: "Would it be better to feed them some grass?"
"you try?"
Ren Heyin cut some fodder nearby and fed the sheep one by one.
The sheep were terrified at first, but gradually got better after eating the grass from his hands.
Ren Heyin looked at Yunming, "Shall I untie it directly?"
"Untie it directly. With me in control, this flock of sheep dare not run around."
The two untied the rope, and the flock of sheep were really well-behaved. They only followed the direction they were chasing, and did not dare to run away.
Ren He calmed down a bit.
They drove the sheep to the direction of the tribe, caught several birds and picked up many eggs along the way.
The two also saw a lot of wild vegetables on the road.
Most wild vegetables don't taste very good, either sour, astringent, bitter, and some have a strange smell.
The fiber of wild vegetables is relatively thick, and it will absorb a lot of water when it is decomposed. If you accidentally eat too much, it is easy to cause constipation.
This is why there are so many wild vegetables in the wild. If they are willing to work hard to collect them, they will not be short of food all year round. They are also willing to spend a lot of time and energy on planting.
After satisfying the basic need of food, the two are willing to work harder and live a better life.
"There are a lot of bird's claw dishes here!"
On the way, Ren Heyin saw a large piece of bird's claw vegetables.
Bird's claw vegetable, as the name suggests, looks a bit like a bird's claw. It usually grows in clumps in the grass. It tastes tender and sweet, and it tastes basically dregs-free. It is a delicious vegetable.
The sheep walking in front couldn't help it, and lowered their heads to chew a bite or two.
Yun Ming said: "Pick more, let's carry some back."
"I'll cut it with a hatchet, it's faster."
Their hatchets had just been sharpened before they set off, and the blades were sharp and sharp, and they cut a large piece.
Ren Heyin specially staggered the cuttings, trying to keep some of the roots of the bird's claw vegetables. After three to five days, these bird's claw vegetables can grow again.
The two picked half of the baskets one after another.
Ren Heyin said: "This kind of bird's claw vegetable is half-dried in the sun, together with the radish, marinated with salt and spices and chili powder, it is very good to eat as a small pickle."
The radishes they planted are growing well, and within a month, those radishes will begin to produce radishes. After two months, when the radishes are harvested, some of them must be made into dried radishes, and the other part must be made into pickles.
When he was a child, he often ate a kind of food called Babaocai, which is roughly pickled radish, beans, carob, kelp, etc. It is delicious to drink porridge.There is no kelp and beans here, and local specialties such as bamboo shoots and bird's claws are also good.
The two walked all afternoon, and when it was dusk, they found a place that was more suitable for camping, poured out the vegetables and mushrooms they picked today, and counted the inventory.
They picked a lot of wild vegetables, besides bird's claw vegetables, there were several kinds of wild vegetables with young leaves, and even wild onions were dug into two large clumps.
Yun Ming asked: "How?"
"Let's be a beggar. After washing these wild vegetables, mix them with seasonings and stuff them into the beggar's belly. You can also borrow the meaty taste of the beggar and add a delicious taste to the beggar."
The taste of wild birds is actually not that good. Most species are not as plump as the white flowers and birds raised by Ren Heyin and the others. Many wild birds are very meaty. It doesn't take a lot of effort. It feels like it can only fill the stomach, not a delicacy.
Ren Heyin put the big non-toxic leaves he picked on the ground, cut onion, ginger and garlic on it, and mixed spices, chili powder and salt with oil.
Yunming brought back the bird that had been slaughtered and its head and tail viscera removed. Ren Heyin rubbed the seasoning all over the inside and outside of the bird, and finally stuffed the washed vegetables and the remaining seasoning into the bird's stomach.
Beggars are easier to roast. Today, more birds were caught, and the birds were bigger. Each weighed at least five or six catties. With such a weight, it was difficult to put the bird in the fire.
Ren Heyin looked at the sky, and since he didn't have to do anything tonight, he simply built a kiln with Yunming, intending to follow the practice of kiln chickens and make a kiln bird.
The steps in front of the kiln bird are similar to those of the beggar chicken. The bird is wrapped in big leaves and covered with a layer of mud.
The following steps are different. They have to build a kiln and keep burning the kiln, then put the bird wrapped in mud into the kiln, and then put firewood on it to continue burning. The kiln is sealed.
In this way, the heat will be lost as little as possible, the bird in the mud ball will be heated more evenly, the gravy will retain more juice, and it will maintain a fresh and tender taste.
It is spring now, and the night is still very cold. When night falls, the cold wind blows, making people's foreheads feel cold.
Ren Heyin had no choice but to build another fire, and it would be better to warm up.
"There's a lot of dead grass here. Let's make a grass nest at night. It's more comfortable to make a grass nest."
Yun Ming said: "No need, my animal shape is too big."
"Let's lay it out. Spring is too humid. I feel that after sitting for a while, there will be water under my buttocks." Ren Heyin yawned, "Toast the floor first, and then spread it later."
Both of them have strong hands-on skills, and there are a lot of firewood and hay nearby. After a while, the two of them collected enough firewood and hay.
Ren Heyin lit a huge fire and roasted the soil underneath.
After baking, the soil will be much drier and the bugs underneath will be burned to death.
Yunming's fur is thick, and he doesn't care about those bugs, but without bugs, he must sleep more comfortably.
The kiln bird was almost cold soon, Ren Heyin dug up the soil and pulled out several mud balls with a hatchet.
The surface of the mud ball is completely dry, and there are cracks one by one on it.
Ren Heyin knocked the dirt open, "I'll open one first to see, if it doesn't work, we'll burn it for a while."
"It should be fine, I can smell the fragrance."
"No way, you can smell it when it's so tight?" Ren Heyin knocked the mud ball open neatly, and the big leaf wrapped in bird meat inside had been roasted and turned yellow. "It seems to be about the same, the color is so even."
Ren Heyin was tearing off the big leaves with ten fingers. The leaves were very hot, so he had to stop for a while.
Yun Ming said, "I'll come."
Yun Ming stretched out his hand and pulled the big leaf away neatly.
The bird meat inside was steaming instantly, and a strong fragrance wafted out, and the golden skin was very oily.
Ren Heyin has made so many calls to call flowers and birds, and it is rare for him to be so successful.
He took a deep breath and said, "I can already see the white gas on it, it smells so good!"
The two of them also took apart the second mud ball, eating two tonight is almost enough, and there are two more that can be eaten tomorrow morning.
The water source was nearby, the two of them washed their hands, came back and waited for a while, Yun Ming went straight to dismantle the bird meat into pieces.
The gravy inside the bird meat was very juicy and the meat was very tender. Ren Heyin took one of the wings, grabbed and bit a piece, and gave Yunming a thumbs up, "Sweet."
Yunming left two wings for him and ate a piece of meat.
The bird meat was really delicious, and the two of them sat by the fire and ate it. Ren Heyin broke off a tree branch and used it as chopsticks to eat the bird's claw and wild vegetables in the bird's stomach.
Bird's claw vegetables and other wild vegetables are sealed in the bird's belly, and the top is covered with fat and meat aroma, which is very delicious.
The greasyness of the bird meat before was blended with wild vegetables, which is perfect.
Ren Heyin ate half a bird and wild vegetables mixed with flour, and couldn't hold on.
Yun Ming ate the other bird and a half and the remaining wild vegetables, slowly and gracefully, so much food seemed to fill his stomach slightly.
Ren Heyin hugged his stomach, humming when he was about to sleep, "I feel like I've eaten too much, why don't we go for a walk?"
"Let's go take a shower." Yunming pulled him up.
"Is it all right to keep these sheep here?"
"It doesn't matter, they dare not run, and other beasts dare not come." Yunming pulled him up, "Which hot spring do you want to go to? Just go to the hot spring in the grassland we are familiar with?"
"That's it, we haven't gone there to look at the stars for a long time."
It was rare that the weather was so clear and the starry sky was bright, so they could go to watch the stars and eat.
The two of them went to take a good bath, and when they came back, they covered the ground with hay and had a good night's sleep.
The next day, Ren Heyin woke up early in the morning. He didn't know if he woke up too early. When he opened his eyes, he felt as if he was blind. There was thick fog everywhere in front of him, and the visibility was no more than five meters.
"Boss, it's foggy!" Ren Heyin rubbed his eyes, "Why is it so foggy today?"
"It's good when the sun comes out." Yun Ming opened his eyes lazily, "Would you like to sleep for a while?"
Ren Heyin lay on Yun Ming's body, feeling drowsy for a while, but he was full of sleep and refreshed, so he couldn't fall asleep.
He shook his head, "Forget it, let's not sleep anymore, let's get up."
The fire has not been extinguished, and the food was prepared last night, and it can be eaten after a little heat.
After the two washed up, it didn't take long before they finished their breakfast.
The two put out the fire and continued to set off, driving the sheep to the tribe.
Ren Heyin was a little disappointed, "I originally expected to get up earlier and return to the tribe earlier, but now there is a heavy fog, and I can't even see the trees in front of me, so I don't know if I can return to the tribe today?"
"It doesn't matter, if it's too late, I'll let the sheep run back ahead without you in the afternoon."
Ren Heyin had to give up after hearing his comfort.
The thick fog made people really uncomfortable, and Ren Heyin felt as if someone was blindfolded.
Seeing the front was awkward, Ren Heyin could only lower his head and look down.
The sun gradually came out, and the golden sunlight could be seen through the fog, but it didn't have much effect on the fog, and the fog was still very thick.
Ren Heyin pulled out the search box and looked at the time. It was only after seven o'clock in the morning, at least after nine o'clock, and the sun rose a little before the fog would dissipate, and there was still time to wait.
The two slowly drove the sheep forward, Ren Heyin paid special attention to the ground, found a lot of wild vegetables and mushrooms on the road, and also found a very delicious wild fruit.
The sun rose higher and higher, and the fog gradually thinned.
He and Yun Ming continued to walk forward, and when they came near a stream, Ren Heyin suddenly found a plant in front of him that looked familiar.
"Boss, come and have a look, I seem to have found a new wild vegetable."
"what?"
"I don't know what it is. It should be edible. It looks familiar." Ren Heyin squatted on the ground and watched, "You have a photographic memory, see if you recognize it."
Yun Ming came over to look carefully, looked at it for a while, and said, "I don't know."
"It shouldn't be, look at this leaf, this seedling, it looks like an edible vegetable." Ren Heyin squatted on the ground, lowered his head and looked hard, "I think it looks familiar."
Yunming asked: "Could it be a common plant on earth?"
"This is really possible!" Ren Heyin cheered up, "Let me see, maybe my grandma planted it when I was young, so I think it looks familiar!"
"Can you guess what dish it is?"
"Wait, this vegetable doesn't look like it eats leaves."
Green leafy vegetables mainly eat leaves, the leaves will be very large, and basically no long stems can be seen, so green leafy vegetables are excluded.
Either it is a melon or fruit, like winter melon, pumpkin, loofah, watermelon, beans, chayote... Ren Heyin thinks it should be a melon or fruit, but he can't recognize it for a while.
"Bring up the search box and search the same thing."
"That's all it takes now."
Ren Heyin called up the search box, and the two compared items one by one, starting with winter melon.
Winter squash is not.
Neither is the pumpkin, both of which look similar, but the pumpkin seedlings are much stronger.
Not even watermelon, watermelon is easy to recognize.
Not like a loofah.
Nor are beans, which have more obvious characteristics.
The two ignored the sheep and squatted on the ground facing each other for a long time, but they still had no idea.
Ren Heyin felt that his mind was stuck, and he couldn't remember what it was.
Yunming pulled him up, "It should be melons and fruits. If we really can't think of it, we won't think about it. Let's dig it back first, and we will know when we grow up and see what it produces."
"That's all it takes now."
The two started to dig up the seedlings and soil that could be found nearby, put them in the basket, and prepared to take them back and think about it slowly.
After digging, when the last plant was dug, Ren Heyin had a flash of inspiration and suddenly remembered, "Cucumber! Boss, come here to see if it is a cucumber?!"

☆、Iron making
Cucumber leaves are easy to identify, especially the two completely different leaves at the bottom near the root.
After careful comparison, Yun Ming nodded and said, "It is indeed a cucumber."
"I just said yes, the characteristics are so obvious that there should be no mistake." Ren Heyin couldn't help being excited, "I really didn't expect it to be cucumber, why is cucumber here?"
"I don't know, take Miao back first."
"It's already in the basket." Ren Heyin stared at the green melon seedlings in his hand, "It would be great if we could also find all kinds of pumpkins, winter melons, watermelons, and loofahs."
"It's not that easy, I'll look for it slowly in the future. Go, go back first."
Having found new vegetables, Ren Heyin was overjoyed, and when he went back, his steps were extraordinarily brisk.
As soon as he speeded up, the whole team moved faster. Just after noon, they reached the range of the tribe.
They were driving such a large flock of sheep, and there was too much movement.
The hunting team originally thought there were prey, but they didn't expect to come and see them.
Quan raised his voice and shouted all the way: "Where did you catch the sheep? I've never seen it before."
"I caught it a long way away." Ren Heyin wiped off his sweat, "How is the result of your hunting today?"
"Not bad, everyone has something to gain."
The conversation between the two parties was far away, and the hunting team continued hunting, while Ren Heyin and Yun Ming drove the sheep to the tribe.
Their sheepfolds have been repaired a long time ago, and now it is enough to drive the sheep in and settle them down.
The flock of sheep walked all the way back and grazed all the way, and they were already full, so there was no need to feed them.
The two didn't care about going back to the tribe, so they hurriedly carried the baskets on their backs to plant the cucumber seedlings in the vegetable field, watered them thoroughly, and then looked up at the sky, ready to go back to the tribe.
It was late, the sun had set on the other side of the mountain, and there was a brilliant sunset glow in the sky. The two returned to the tribe side by side.
"I don't know how the cucumbers grow here, how will they taste? If the cucumbers on our side are not grown properly, they will actually taste a bit bitter, especially the end near the stem of the melons will taste very bitter."
"It should be good."
Ren Heyin stretched his waist, "It doesn't matter, let's plant it first. There are more vegetables in the vegetable field. I don't know when we will find eggplants and beans."
"The previous Mingdou don't count?"
"Never mind, beans are another species." Ren Heyin made a great wish, "If we can't find them, we can spend money on the search box and buy a batch."
The two caught the sheep back, and went to catch white flowers and birds the next day.
There are many white flowers and birds nearby, so you don't have to run so far.
This time, the white flower bird is also specially catching the female bird, and after catching it, it is specially used to lay eggs.
They didn't calculate the time well last year, and they couldn't use the batch of white-flowered birds that had been raised for a long time to hatch the chicks. This year, they need to make preparations, try to hatch the chicks before the snowy day, and raise the offspring of the current batch of birds next year.
This way of domestication continues, maybe they will gradually get white flowers and birds like chickens.
With more things to do, they got busy again.
On this day, Qing approached Ren Heyin and asked, "Yin, the rice seedlings have grown so tall, when shall we plant rice?"
Ren Heyin would go to the farmland every day to inspect the growth conditions of various crops. He also knew what the rice looks like. In his opinion, the current rice seedlings can barely be transplanted, but in fact it is not the best time yet. .
"Wait a little longer. The rice seedlings should be ready for transplanting in about five or six days or ten days. The current rice seedlings are not high enough." Ren Heyin stretched out his hand and gestured, "At least we can't prepare for transplanting until the height of our calf."
"What about the fertilizer, do you want to put fertilizer into the field now?"
"Not yet. Usually wait for the rice seedlings to grow in the field before preparing to fertilize. What's more, we have so many rice fields and there is not enough fertilizer. Let's wait for a while and save enough fertilizer."
If you want to grow crops well, both water and fertilizer are the top priority. If there is no fertilizer, the yield will not be high.
Ren Heyin's rice grew so well last year, and the manure they piled up in the field is indispensable. The ecological planting method makes the fertility of their field much higher than that of other places. The fish in the rice field eat grass and insects. The rice brought a lot of help.
Qing breathed a sigh of relief after asking clearly, "That's good, I'll tell them. We've never grown rice before, so we're always a little worried because we're not sure about the planting time."
"Don't worry, I'm in the tribe, it's almost as if I'm watching our rice."
"Then I'll tell them." Qing smiled, "You guys are so busy these days, what are you busy doing?"
"It's mainly hunting and gathering. After we finished hunting during this period, we have to work on the farm again. We found a piece of plums on the mountain. Is the tribe interested? If so, we will go and pick them together."
According to the time calculation, the plums on the mountain should not be ripe yet, but most of them have grown green plums.
Ren Heyin wanted to take some time to look at such a large piece of plums, but he didn't know how many plums they could pick at that time. After they picked some plums and stored them, they would be very good for cooking or drinking.
Qing and the others have lived here for so long, Ren Heyin knew which piece it was when he mentioned it, he quickly waved his hand, "No, no, no, that plum is very sour, we don't want it anymore."
Ren Heyin thought for a while, "It's okay. If it turns yellow, the plums won't be too sour. Sometimes they are picked for cooking, or pickled into salty plums and sweet plums. It's good as a snack."
Qing showed a sore tooth expression, "You can bear this sour taste, but we can't. Some people in the tribe have picked it up and eaten it before, and it can even make your teeth sour after eating it."
Ren Heyin said: "Then we will not be polite."
"You're welcome, pick as much as you want, not in the tribe."
Ren Heyin had already set his sights on Mei Lin, and pulled Yun Ming over the next day.
This plum grove is no longer the previous appearance of plum trees full of plum blossoms and dark fragrance everywhere.
The plum tree is full of leaves, and the branches are full of fruits. A tree of green plums looks heavy. If it is other fruits, this scene can make people feel the joy of a good harvest.The sour greengage hangs here, and the joy has to be discounted.
Ren Heyin was eager to try, "Boss, check if there are any yellowed plums, almost yellowed ones are fine, as long as the kernels inside are hardened, we will pick some and eat them with cold salad."
Yun Ming expressed his objection for the first time, "Can you eat such sour plums?"
"Yes, why can't you? I'll mix some chili later, it'll be cool to dip the chili into the water and eat it. If you don't believe me, you can try it later."
Mixing unripe fruit with dipping water is the way to eat it in Yunnan, but Ren Heyin and the others also have it in their hometown.
When he was young, he was still relatively poor in material things. The children were all greedy and had nothing to eat all day long. Sour fruit was just enough, mixed with salt, salt and chili powder, mainly to make the mouth taste a little bit.
When Ren Heyin was a child, he liked this stuff quite a bit, and his grandma would mix it for him in spring, but he never tasted it when he grew up.
Yun Ming was skeptical about the taste of this food, and at Ren Heyin's request, he found a lot of plums for him.
The fruits in this world are generally relatively large, and even immature greengages look like the size of a ping-pong ball. Ren Heyin picked a few bunches from a relatively low tree, but did not find yellow ones, and said: "Pick that much first, and after a while Time for us to come again."
"Plums are so sour, how will you eat them when you pick them?"
"First sun-dried plums, and then further processing, when the time comes to see what flavor you want to eat, and then process it into what flavor."
The two picked plums and went back. That afternoon, Ren Heyin mixed the plums with chili and dipped them in water to eat.
Yun Ming tasted a piece, and thanked Bu Min, Ren Heyin rarely saw his expression change, and was overjoyed.
Ren Heyin took a big bowl of plums and went down to tease the children.
The children are very curious and fearless. When Ren Heyin said that these foods are delicious, they dared to reach out their paws to take them.
Yun Ming rarely said, "Eat less, sour."
Xi and the others looked at Yunming, then at Ren Heyin, and put the plums into their mouths hesitantly.
"Bah bah bah!"
Almost all the children pouted at the same time, and very few were so sour that tears came out.
Ren Heyin glanced at their wrinkled little faces like steamed stuffed buns, and couldn't help laughing, "Don't rush to spit it out, put it in your mouth and taste it, maybe you will taste it later."
"It's so sour!"
"It's so spicy."
"Tsk, you don't know how to appreciate it." Ren Heyin saw that they didn't follow, he took a bamboo stick and stuck a piece of plum in his mouth to eat, "This thing is like pepper, you have to learn how to eat it, and you can only taste it if you learn how to eat it." their taste."
The children were skeptical, but slowly put the sour plums into their mouths.
Others in the tribe came back and saw that they were eating plums with great relish, so they also came to take a piece to taste.
Most people are choked by this sour and spicy plum at the first bite, and very few people have the courage to try a second bite.
A few people like Qing felt the taste of spicy plums.
Qing was still afraid of the acid, but quickly changed his mind after tasting it.
Ren Heyin expressed full admiration for those who can appreciate their own plums, "You have to eat small pieces of this thing slowly, throw a piece into your mouth when you are free, and half a day will pass before you know it."
Qing looked surprised, "I originally thought that this kind of sour plums would be unpalatable, but I didn't expect it to be okay."
"I like you to pick some by yourself. If there is no pepper, I still have it here. You can take it back and mix it. It is very delicious as a snack."
Ren Heyin has plenty of chili peppers in his hands. The chili peppers in their tea forest have been growing continuously, and they can't finish eating. He has to take some dried chili peppers. He has a lot of chili peppers in his hand, and he uses them generously. He doesn't care about that at all. 01:30 o'clock.
"That's all right, we'll pick some to pickle when we're free."
When Ren Heyin talked about the gourmet classics, he became interested, "This kind of plums can not only be used for pickling, but also for cooking. Usually, one or two plums can be used for meat dishes. The plums can not only suppress the fishy smell inside, but also add A hint of sour flavor, very delicious."
"anything else?"
"It's also delicious to make a drink, especially if you use plums to soak in water, and add a little honey, that's green plum honey water." Ren Heyin said, "This drink is best in summer, and you can have some if you're tired of eating meat. "
"By the way, do you know plum popsicles? If the plums are dried and stored, soak the plums in water in winter, then add honey, take them out at night and freeze them outside, and you can get a piece of plum popsicles the next day Now, if you are roasting by the fire, knocking on pine nuts and shaking popsicles, that day will definitely be more comfortable than you can imagine."
"There is also plum barbecue. Plum barbecue is similar to sour fruit barbecue, but it has a different aroma. If you are tired of eating sour fruit barbecue, you can also try plum barbecue. There is also plum sauce, sour plum and garlic. When eating noodles, put half a spoonful of the sauce, the sour and salty taste is absolutely unforgettable.”
What Ren Heyin said was enticing, the children were the first to be lured. They ate plums with Ren Heyin for a long time, and Qing and other adults also ate a lot.
Ren Heyin was a little complacent at first, but when he was having dinner, he stuffed a taro into his mouth, just touching his teeth, his face contorted and hissed.
Yun Ming instantly looked up at him, "What?"
"Damn it, I ate too many sour plums, and my teeth are sour." Ren Heyin's handsome face twisted, "I can't even bite taro now."
Yun Ming pinched his neck, "What should we do now?"
"There is no good way, I can only wait for the sourness to go away, let me drink a bowl of broth tonight." Ren Heyin muttered, "I didn't eat much, how could it be so sour?"
"Going down with a big bowl, how many calls are there?"
The bowls here are all big, and a bowl of plums weighs at least two or three catties.
Ren Heyin was not convinced, and muttered, "I brought a lot of plums, but I was not the only one who ate them. Everyone ate them, and I actually didn't even eat half a bowl."
"Then why are your teeth still sore?"
Ren Heyin refused to speak.
Seeing his angry appearance, Yun Ming took the boiled taro, pressed the taro into mashed taro with a spoon, poured it into the broth and stirred, "Drink some taro porridge first tonight."
"It can only be this way."
Ren Heyin was not the only one whose teeth were knocked down by sour plum sour that night.
Many people in the tribe felt sick to their teeth, and a few children were crying sourly. The parents of the family were shocked and turned pale, so they came here to ask Ren Heyin what to do. Ren Heyin waved his hand tiredly, "It's okay, just If you eat too many sour plums, you will be fine tomorrow."
Everyone did not expect sour plums to have such a great power. After being soured, most people who originally planned to pick green plums have withdrawn their minds and would rather eat less than touch this thing.
Ren Heyin was very regretful after knowing this.
The rainiest time was over, and the weather was gradually clearing up again. Ren Heyin and Yun Ming took advantage of the good weather and had nothing to do, so they took the time to cut honey.
"There is really a lot of honey this year, much more than last year." Ren Heyin stared at the honey in the bucket, "Let's cut more honey today, otherwise these bees should think about dividing their nests."
"Don't leave a few more honeycombs out?"
"Let's forget it. There are only so many honey sources nearby. Even if they succeed in dividing their nests now, these bees will starve to death in a short time. Why bother?"
Ren Heyin stared at the honey in the barrel, "I seem to smell the fragrance of peach blossoms in the honey. The peach blossoms should be blooming well this year. Let's take a look at the peach forest later, shall we?"
"The rain is good this year."
The two moved quickly, and the bee
