Chapter 270 Bamboo Forest and Spring Bamboo Shoots
Tonight, for the newly named Luhe place by Han Cheng, it is destined to be extraordinary.
Not only because the two long-legged egrets were roasted and eaten, but also because the tidal flats that had not been swept by Yuan Ke were now opened up by a group of people.
From the original uninhabited, it has become pyrotechnic.
Under the flickering fire, there was the sound of splashing water, and several fish cages that hadn't been put in the water for a long time were pulled out, and there were a few more jumping fish inside.
The fish cage was brought by Han Cheng and the others with the boat.
It is better to teach him to fish than to teach him to fish. Han Cheng remembered this very philosophical old saying very clearly, so he brought not only a lot of salted fish, but also a few fish cages with him on the boat.
Anyway, they had to walk along the river this way, and with these fish cages, they would not starve to death.
However, the fish here are not as easy to catch as the fish in front of the Qingque tribe. You need to put some food in the fish cage as bait to catch them.
The fish in the fish cage were taken out. Tietou was a kind man who didn't want the fish to suffer. After two sticks were put on each fish's head, the fish no longer struggled to death.
The baited fish cages were put back into the water. When going out, eat as little food as you can, so as not to starve when you can’t catch food.
These fish cages were made more than half a year ago, and they are very different from the fish cages Han Cheng originally made.
This kind of fish cage is woven with rattan. It is a hollow cylinder. One end is sealed, and a conical funnel also woven with rattan is placed on the other end. Just connect the two firmly with rattan. .
This kind of fish cage is not only simple and trouble-free to manufacture, but also stronger and more durable than the kind of fish cage that Han Cheng wove with rope.
So up to now, the fish cages of the Qingque tribe have been updated, and all of them have been replaced with this kind of fish cages.
The flames were beating, the smell of food was wafting far away, and the gradually darkening night sky became deep, studded with stars all over the sky.
The eighteen people who came with them ate relatively simple food.
Two unlucky egrets, as well as the newly caught fish and the soup made from the salted fish brought in, and a jar of food similar to pork rind jelly.
This thing was cooked by Han Cheng's meat before he set off.
Chop up the meat as much as possible, put it in a tank and add water to cook it until it is broken, put it in a jar, and after it cools down, it will condense like jelly.
This kind of food with salt is very resistant to storage, and the taste is not bad.
After dinner, the fire was extinguished, and everyone returned to the boat under Han Cheng's order.
Put the canoe into the water for a certain distance, and fix it on the water surface with two poles at a place about ten meters away from the river bank.
They slept in the canoe tonight.
Although the boats that Han Cheng and the others rode were called canoes, the space in the boats was not small, nearly two meters wide.
This is mostly where they live, with such thick trees.
Including Han Cheng, a total of 19 people sleep in these four small boats. Although it is a bit crowded, they can still sleep.
These were all tested by Han Chengcheng before he set off.
He had no such idea of spending the night on a completely unfamiliar land.
Otherwise, it would be too unfair to be eaten by something in the middle of the night.
Starting tomorrow, we will check the situation on both sides of the river a lot.
The most important thing is to see if there are any plants that the Qingque tribe lacks, and it is best to find some necessary ores.
Although his biggest purpose of this trip is to confirm whether this is a primitive protection area, these things still need to be done.
Whether it is or not, I can't leave it, these things are very important to the Qingque tribe.
Covered with fur, looking at the stars all over the sky, and listening to the occasional sound of the river beating against the ship's side, Han Cheng was thinking about something and fell asleep at some point.
When I woke up the next day, I pulled out the fish cage that had been in the water overnight, and the harvest was full.
Fresh fish, together with a few large birds that were secretly shot by Junior Brother Sha and two other people using bows and arrows, was the breakfast for everyone in the Qingque tribe.
After eating, the fish cage was put back into the water, and everyone armed with weapons and walked towards the river bank farther away from the water.
On the way of walking, from time to time, he beat with a spear or a stick in his hand to make a movement.
Weeding can not only startle snakes, but also startle other things.
On the ground along the way, in the grass more than half a meter high, there are a lot of withered grass and scum left by flooding over the years.
Han Cheng walked all the way, watching while walking, and would record something with charcoal on the bark in his hand after walking for a while.
The field of vision here is much wider than the place where the Qingque tribe lives. The overall terrain is flat, and the mountains on this side are far away from the river bank.
It is very good to cultivate crops.
Thinking of this, Han Cheng couldn't help smiling. He really inherited the good racial talent of the Chinese nation. When he saw the land, he wanted to plant something.
Climbing up to a hill that was not too high near the shore, Han Cheng raised his eyes and looked around. The surrounding area was full of vitality and had a wild atmosphere.
After looking at it for a while, a piece of green about a mile away attracted Han Cheng's attention.
This is……
This is bamboo, right? !
"Go, go over there and have a look."
Han Cheng suppressed the joy in his heart, and said to the elder brother and the others.
After some not-so-easy walking, a bamboo forest appeared in front of my eyes with a clearer gesture.
The slender figure in jasper color, and the same slender leaves, made a 'squeaky' sound in the wind.
There are few weeds and trees in the forest, only a field of withered and yellow bamboo leaves that have been piled up for an unknown number of years, accompanied by a few scattered bamboo shoots that have not yet grown too many.
Looking at the bamboo forest, Han Cheng couldn't help smiling.
This is something that is full of treasures all over the body! With them, the Qingque tribe has another very good material when making things in the future.
For weaving alone, bamboo has many advantages that rattan cannot match.
For example, bamboo can be woven all year round, while rattan has a certain time limit, and its plasticity is much higher than that of rattan.
This is not what excites Han Cheng the most. What excites Han Cheng the most is the bamboo shoots that haven't grown yet, which are absolutely delicious.
During the season of rape blossoms, some impatient bamboo shoots have already drilled out of it, and the underground area has accumulated strength, and there are more bamboo shoots ready to break through the ground.
"dig!"
Han Cheng excitedly said to the elder brother and the others.
Senior brother and the others, they are delicious, but now under the influence of Han Cheng, there are signs of developing into senior foodies. After learning from Han Cheng that the bamboo shoots are delicious, there is no need for Han Cheng to mobilize them, and the few people are full of energy Dig with a shovel.
