Li Dazhuang asked: "Qingxiu, how do you pick this fungus?"

After hearing this, Li Qingxiu gently pinched the root of the fungus with her fingers, then gently twisted the fungus and successfully picked it off. "Just pick it like this."

Everyone stepped forward and wanted to imitate Li Qingxiu in picking fungus, but Li Zheng stopped him. After finally finding a tree full of fungus, he was afraid that these rough men would damage the fungus.

Li Zheng asked the more attentive Li Aniu and Li Dazhuang to pick it, and told everyone that the fungus this time would be used as an ingredient in Gongzhong.

No one had any objection, and Li Dazhuang and Li Aniu imitated Li Qingxiu's picking movements and started picking fungus.

Li Zheng turned to Li Qingxiu and asked: "Qingxiu girl, after all the fungus have been picked, can we still cut them back to plant fungus?"

Li Qingxiu nodded. "It should be okay, let's give it a try anyway."

Li Qingxiu said this because she saw many small black spots on the tree trunk, which she estimated to be the fungus species.

After listening to Li Qingxiu's words, Li Zheng smiled on his face. He said to everyone: "In that case, after harvesting the fungus, cut the tree back and try to see if you can grow fungus. If successful, we will have more fungus to eat in the future."

The men were not idle after saying hello. They all remembered the appearance of the fungus and began to look for it on the surrounding tree trunks to see if there was any fungus.

Widow Jia and Li Qingxiu held torches and bent over the ground to look for edible wild vegetables.

The two of them searched around before they saw a piece of snow primordial grass beside the mountain road.

Widow Jia recognized this snow primrose first. Li Qingxiu had never eaten snow primrose, so she didn’t recognize it at all. Just as Li Qingxiu was about to step on it, Widow Jia stopped her.

Widow Jia dug up the snow primrose tree excitedly, shook the snow and soil on it, and said to Li Qingxiu: "This is also a wild vegetable, called snow primrose grass."

Li Qingxiu didn't expect that an ordinary-looking wild vegetable could have such a nice name. "Auntie, are these wild vegetables bitter?"

Widow Jia threw the wild vegetables into Li Qingxiu's basket, then bent down to pick them again. "It's bitter, but this kind of wild vegetable tastes good and it can grow in large sizes in winter. How could I have forgotten this kind of wild vegetable? In the past, not only young and old people ate it."

Li Qingxiu also squatted down and dug along, "Then think carefully about whether there are other wild vegetables that can grow in winter."

Widow Jia thought hard for a while and slapped her thigh, "By the way, there are also bracken. I used to pick bracken often in winter."

Li Qingxiu knew about bracken, but they had just looked around and couldn't see any trace of bracken. It was estimated that there was no bracken in this area.

Widow Jia was also aware of this problem. She comforted Li Qingxiu and said, "It's okay. There are so many mountains. If we don't find them here, we will go to another mountain to find them."

Li Qingxiu nodded: "Auntie is right!"

Widow Jia's hand digging for wild vegetables suddenly stopped. "Qingxiu, how many kinds of wild vegetables do you want to dig?"

Li Qingxiu pretended to be relaxed and said: "Hehe, no more, no more, five more kinds!"

"What? Five more kinds? Oh my God, it's hard to find them in this season and it's snowy and dark everywhere." Widow Jia was shocked by the number Li Qingxiu said.

Widow Jia advised from the bottom of her heart: "Why do you have to look for wild vegetables? Can we not look for them? In this situation, it is not only tiring but also very difficult to find."

Li Qingxiu sighed deeply. How could she not know that wild vegetables are extremely difficult to find now.

But there was nothing she could do. If she didn't find all ten edible wild vegetables, she would lose a box of golden gold.

Li Qingxiu said with a sad face: "Auntie, there's nothing I can do." After saying that, she pointed up.

Widow Jia saw Li Qingxiu's action and was a little confused at first, but after thinking about it for a while, she immediately realized it.

She asked in a low voice: "Then why did the mountain god ask you to find so many kinds of wild vegetables? Is it that the mountain god is short of vegetables?"

The mountain god is short of food? Li Qingxiu couldn't help but twitch her mouth when she heard what Widow Jia said.

"Then I don't know. He gave me a dream last night and asked me to come to the mountain to find ten kinds of edible wild vegetables. He told me a few kinds of wild vegetables, and I had to find the rest myself. Otherwise, how would I know anything? Fungus and yam."

After hearing this, Widow Jia looked at Li Qingxiu with great pity. Before, everyone envied Li Qingxiu for being chosen by the mountain god.

But it's quite frustrating to have an inexplicable errand happen every now and then.

Seeing Li Qingxiu's deep frown, Widow Jia patted Li Qingxiu's shoulder and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, aunt will accompany you to search. There are only five kinds. I don't believe it. I have searched all these mountains and still can't find it." together."

Li Qingxiu smiled sweetly: "Thank you, Auntie!"

After the two of them dug up all the snow and grass on the ground, they got up and walked towards the fungus tree.

At this time, Li Dazhuang and Li Aniu had picked all the fungus that could be picked from the fungus tree, and they were carefully putting all the fungus into the bamboo basket.

When Li Qingxiu saw how gentle and careful their movements were, she smiled and said, "This fungus is not that easy to break. You don't need to be so careful."

When Li Dazhuang heard what Li Qingxiu said, he threw the fungus in his hand directly into the bamboo basket, "You told me earlier, I have never been so gentle to your aunt."

Li Aniu also said: "These fungus are softer than mushrooms. I'm afraid they will be crushed even if I use a little force."

Li Zheng came over at this time and saw Li Dazhuang and Li Aniu picking all the fungus from the fungus tree.

They arranged for Li Ashui and Li Datian to cut down the fungus tree, and told them to be careful not to remove the fungus seeds on the trunk.

Then he said to Li Dazhuang and Li Aniu: "You two come with me. We also found two or three trees with fungus over there. Although they are not as dense as this tree, there are still quite a few."

Upon hearing this, Li Dazhuang and Li Aniu immediately picked up the bamboo basket and followed Li Zheng, but Li Qingxiu stopped Li Zheng.

Li Zheng heard Li Qingxiu calling him, so he asked Li Dazhuang and Li Aniu to pass first, but he stopped and turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"

Li Qingxiu stepped forward and said, "Uncle Li Zheng, you guys are picking fungus here first, while my aunt and I will go somewhere else. You don't need to wait for us after you finish picking. We will go back to Lihua Valley ourselves."

After hearing this, Li Zheng refused without thinking, "No, it's so dark. What if you encounter a wild beast?"

Widow Jia is also worried about this problem, but now that Li Qingxiu has an errand given by the mountain god, she cannot afford to neglect it.

So she also helped persuade Li Zheng: "What are you afraid of? Qingxiu has a lot of strength. She has killed several big insects and wild boars."
