Chapter 1027: The Truffle

Gu Ye looked at the gradually thinning raindrops, took a deep breath of the moist and fresh mountain air, and became a little interested: "Oh? Are there any wild mushrooms in the mountains?"

Luna said a few terms that Gu Ye had never heard before. After the little girl's description, Gu Ye could barely recognize matsutake, boletus, and chicken fir fungus... the names of these wild mushrooms are different from those of ethnic minorities.

When Gu Ye was in Qingshan Village, he often went up the mountain to pick mushrooms. Since entering Fanjing and meeting her biological parents, she has never had the chance to experience the fun of a little girl picking mushrooms.

Looking at the wet mountain road, it is inevitable for people to wrestle when walking on it, let alone a horse. For his own safety, Gu Ye decided to stay for another day or two. It's not too late to go back after the sun comes out—it's not urgent to go back anyway.

Seeing that the little genius doctor was successfully retained, Luna had a sweet smile on her face. She smiled and said: "Little genius doctor, the ham cured by the patriarch's wife is famous in our villages. Just now, the patriarch's uncle sent a piece over. You can try it by frying it with garlic sprouts at noon."

Lunch is very rich. The leftover venison, marinated with salt, can be preserved for three to five days. The hard dishes at noon are braised venison, as well as the fried ham with garlic sprouts mentioned by Luna, cold water bracken (a kind of wild vegetable), fried wild eggs with stinky vegetables...

The marinated venison has a taste that Gu Ye doesn't like very much. The ham sent by the patriarch's family is full of color, flavor and taste. Chewing carefully, there is a unique aroma between the lips and teeth. The picky Gu Ye ate a lot. There are also wild vegetables unique to the mountains. Aunt Luna was worried that the guests would not like them. I didn't expect my benefactor to eat quite happily.

However, there is something that Gu Ye doesn't like—Zheergen, also called Houttuynia cordata, has a faint fishy smell. However, Gu Ye's sense of taste is more sensitive than ordinary people, and this fishy smell is infinitely magnified. After taking the first bite, she retched. Aunt Luna once wondered if she had a body!

Pregnant? Not currently planned. She has been drinking her contraceptive medicine as fruit juice, pregnant with wool?

The rain stopped in the evening. Early the next morning, she changed into Luna's short dress, exposing half of her arms and calves, and went into the mountains to pick mushrooms under the morning dew. However, in order to prevent being bitten by snakes, ants and poisonous insects, she applied insect repellent lotion on her wrists and ankles.

Princess Linlang also came over to join in the fun. Looking at Gu Ye's calf as white as snow, she couldn't help but said: "Aren't you women in Yan Kingdom very conservative? If you see your feet, you will marry each other. Are you like this... Aren't you afraid that King Ning will be angry? "

"I'm doing as Romans do! Also, I'm not from Yan Country, I'm just a daughter-in-law of Yan Country!" Gu Ye has long missed the small vest and big pants of his previous life. Here, no matter how hot it is in summer, you have to cover it tightly, it's depressing to death!

Princess Linlang has never been to Dongling Country, she asked curiously: "Could it be that Dongling's atmosphere is more open than our Sen Country?"

"It's okay! I don't think women should be bound by these red tape and rules. It's impure to see their arms and legs? Fart! That's just to satisfy men's desire for exclusivity and machismo!" Gu Ye kept complaining. .

Princess Linlang glanced back at King Ning who was following behind, and asked in a low voice: "Your prince has been staring at your calf for a long time, and he is probably not happy. If he gets angry, will he do anything to you?"

"Honey, do I look good in this outfit?" Gu Ye stopped, turned around in front of Ling Juechen, and asked.

"It's okay! It fits well. But, it's just rained, aren't your legs cold?" The reason why Ling Juechen stared at Gu Ye's calf was that her legs were wet with dew, and he was afraid that she would catch cold.

"Don't worry, go back and soak it with herbs, and the cold will be gone!" Gu Ye flicked his feet, almost throwing the straw sandals off his feet. Ling Juechen squatted down, untied her loose shoelaces, and tied them again.

Princess Linlang felt sour in her heart—can you stop throwing dog food anytime and anywhere, and take into account the feelings of single dogs, okay? What she asked just now was too stupid, King Ning loved his wife so much, how could he be willing to move a finger of her.

Luna, who was leading the way, pointed to the pine forest not far away: "In the forest ahead, there are matsutakes that the little genius doctor likes. This forest is close to the old forest, and no one in the village dares to come here. Father brought me to hunt It's time to find out!"

In the climate here, in addition to matsutake, truffles should also be dug in the pine forest, right? She remembered that black truffles seemed to be distributed in southwest China. However, truffles are stalks that grow on the roots of pine trees and are rarely found.

In her previous life, she seems to have read texts about collecting truffles, saying that some people in foreign countries train dogs and even pigs to find truffles. She has neither dogs nor pigs, but a mutant leopard with a special nose.

Luna found a bush of matsutake, and Princess Linlang was also attracted to it. Gu Ye quickly pulled out the mutated leopard from the space: "Xiao Mo, it's time to test your ability! Go, let me find truffles under the tree roots!"

Shi Tian, ​​who suddenly left the space, looked a little dazed. Hearing the order from the hostess, it had an unlovable face: This beast is a leopard, not a dog, okay? Don't always use it as a hound!

He wanted to passively sabotage his work, but when he met the cold and threatening eyes of his master, Shi Tian had to compromise. It resignedly jumped off the hand of the hostess, and walked slowly to the pine tree, sniffing here and there.

"Huh? A little black panther that hasn't been weaned yet!" After picking the matsutake, Luna looked around in surprise when she saw Shi Tian. Not finding the mother leopard, she boldly approached Shitian step by step.

Shi Tian lazily rolled his eyelids, ignored her, and continued to smell her tree by tree. However, at the moment Luna rushed towards it, it dodged sensitively, still ignored her, and resolutely carried out the hostess' instructions.

Luna pounced several times in a row, but was dodged by the little black panther—what a clever little milk leopard! Luna's competitive spirit was also aroused, and she got into a fight with the little black panther.

Shi Tian was so annoyed by her, and he couldn't make people fly - who told this annoying little girl to be with the masters? It turned around and yelled at Gu Ye impatiently: Stop her quickly, and let people not find truffles?

Gu Ye smiled and ignored him. She found a few fat matsutake plants and picked them carefully. Shi Tian was very upset and decided to go on strike! It came to Gu Ye's side, squatted on her straw sandals, and couldn't get up.

Luna chased after her. Seeing this scene, she was stunned for a moment, and asked cautiously, "Little genius doctor, is this little black panther raised by you?"

"Yes! If you like, I will lend you to play for a while!" Shi Tian was sold out by the unscrupulous master. It rushed out suddenly, jumped a few times, and disappeared into the woods.

Luna saw it, and was a little worried: "Little genius doctor, your little leopard has run away. Hurry up and chase it back, don't be ruined by wild beasts in the forest!"

"Don't worry, it'll be fine!" It's the beasts in the woods that should be worried!

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Shi Tian to regain his giant panther's posture, holding an adult wild boar in his mouth, and walked over with arrogant steps step by step.

This frightened Luna and Princess Linlang. Mom! They had never seen such a huge leopard!

Especially Luna, who was closest to the place where Shi Tian appeared, could smell the blood coming out of the wild boar. The little girl trembled all over and did not dare to move. The basket in her hand was also thrown on the ground, and the mushrooms inside were scattered all over the ground.

Princess Linlang had already drawn out her sword. If Gu Ye remained silent, she would probably stab her with this sword.

Gu Ye held her hand, and walked over with the giant black panther: "Nice job! I will add chicken legs to you tonight! But don't think that you can not find truffles by bribing me with a wild boar. Hurry up, don't ink!" !"

Shi Tian threw the wild boar in front of Gu Ye, then turned back angrily. Where they couldn't see, it turned back to the size of a small milk cat, and continued to lower its head and sniff under the roots of the tree unhappily.

Luna swallowed hard, and asked with a trembling voice: "Is that just now... the little black panther's mother? Isn't it too big? The little black panther grows up and won't be like its mother." Same, so big, right?"

Shi Tiantian has no face to love: Are you blind? This beast is male! male! !

Shi Tian sniffed here and there in this pine forest, feeling a little passive and sabotage. Gu Ye saw it and threatened: "Xiaomo, if you can't find the truffle today, you will be fined to eat fish for three days! You will not be allowed to enter the space!"

When Shi Tian heard it, is it okay? Fish is the most hated food in its life, bar none! Space is a good thing to help it evolve - if the owner can show mercy to eat the little red lotus inside, it will definitely be able to advance to two levels!

Unfortunately, its owner is too stingy, and he is not willing to give it a little lotus! And threatened it all day long, let it eat the most disgusting fish!

Huh? Is there a situation? In order not to be fined to eat fish, Shi Tian started to work hard. It used its sharp claws to plan and plan, until it found a piece of plant root, and held it in front of Gu Ye.

Gu Ye took a look at it, touched its small head, and said, "This is a wild Panax notoginseng, not a truffle. However, such a big Panax notoginseng is hard to come by. Keep working hard!"

Shi Tian resigned to his fate and pressed his nose to the ground, and kept complaining in his heart: What is a truffle? What are truffles? What does it taste like? You don't say anything, just let this beast look for it, and don't bring such bullying beasts.

It raised its eyes and glanced at the male master, wanting him to help to speak a word of justice. But seeing the former master's appearance as a wife and slave, he rested his mind again - this man, if he doesn't help his wife bully him, he is already considered good!

Shi Tian dug up another piece of thick rhizome—this should be it, right?

Gu Ye picked it up, put it into her small basket, and stroked the little black panther's head appreciatively: "This is Gastrodia elata, truffles...it's black. It seems that there are white ones too...what does it look like and taste like? I saw it in the book. Come on, I am optimistic about you!"
