The Age of Rebirth: Winning since the educated youth went to the countryside
Chapter 240 Ginseng
After the lunch break, Zhou Ziwen took an ax and tied a sack around his waist, and set out for the mountain with Tayun.
This time he was traveling lightly, only hunting prey and not caring about anything else.
Perhaps feeling his master's emotions, Taiyun also looked very energetic, with his four legs moving regularly, like a general about to go on an expedition.
Seeing Tayun's appearance, Zhou Ziwen's eyes flashed with admiration. This dog's eyes were good and he looked more and more like a hunting dog.
Along the way up the mountain, Tayun didn't behave as usual. He didn't move around when following Zhou Ziwen. His ears moved from time to time and he always paid attention to what was going on around him.
Arriving at the foot of Niutou Mountain, Zhou Ziwen did not delay and took Tayun all the way up the mountain, then over the top of the mountain and continued down the mountain.
In all the time he has been here, he has never passed Niutou Mountain or jumped to the next mountain.
Today he planned to go a little further to see if he could encounter any bigger beasts.
His requirements are not high, just like last time, just bring back a roe deer.
There was only one person this time, and the goal was clear. Zhou Ziwen was very fast, and he passed halfway up the mountain in a while and continued downward.
This area was a place he had never been before, and as he went deeper, the surrounding weeds became denser.
Sometimes some grass and vines block the way, and you have to go around it before you can continue forward.
From time to time, Zhou Ziwen would hold an ax and cut a path, firstly to scare away snakes, and secondly to make walking easier.
Tayun followed him step by step without any noise or fuss.
But Zhou Ziwen noticed that this little guy was always paying attention to what was going on around him.
Once it finds something, it will sound a warning.
"Hey, what is this?"
At this moment, Zhou Ziwen's eyes lit up and he stared at a patch of grass. He discovered that there was something a little different about an inconspicuous weed among them.
"This seems to be ginseng!"
After Zhou Ziwen came closer, he looked at it carefully for a while.
Through the medical books he had read during this period, and the knowledge that the hanging panel had subtly integrated into his mind through the hanging, he finally confirmed that this was ginseng.
"Good guy, I didn't expect that I would get something unexpected when I went out."
At this time, Zhou Ziwen didn't say he was going hunting. He just wanted to take out the ginseng plant to see how big it was.
Judging from his limited knowledge, this ginseng plant should be quite old, but the exact size cannot be known until it is dug out and examined.
Zhou Ziwen didn't have any tools for digging, so he simply found a branch.
This thing is a good thing and needs to be dug slowly. If the roots are accidentally broken, the loss will be huge.
Fortunately, Zhou Ziwen had enough control and moved his hands quickly. After a while, the head of the ginseng was exposed.
Judging from the size, it should be a little bigger than a carrot.
"Come on, such a big ginseng can definitely be used as a family heirloom." At this moment, even though Zhou Ziwen was calm, he couldn't help but be ecstatic.
At this moment, he was like winning a lottery, pie in the sky, he couldn't believe it was true.
But touching the rough soil, he was sure that this was true.
"dig!"
After a moment of joy, Zhou Ziwen continued to use branches to carefully dig the soil around the ginseng.
This time, Zhou Ziwen's movements were more careful, and he peeled away a little bit of soil, as if he was scraping.
However, although his movements were light, his speed was very fast. With his control over his body, it would be difficult to hurt Ginseng.
When you are busy, time always passes quickly. In the blink of an eye, two hours pass.
After two hours of hard work, he had dug out the main part of the ginseng, leaving only the roots, which were the most troublesome part.
The roots of this ginseng plant are very long and take root very deeply, and you have to be careful when handling it for fear of breaking the roots.
However, Zhou Ziwen didn't mind it at all, and even wished he had more roots.
He has decided that even if he doesn't go home tonight, he will stay here until the ginseng is dug out.
Soon, three hours passed and the sun was about to set.
Most of this ginseng was dug out by Zhou Ziwen.
In fact, there are rules for digging ginseng, such as tying the roots with red strings, and there seems to be traditions such as rituals.
But Zhou Ziwen is not a mountaineer and doesn't understand this at all.
As the saying goes, if you believe it, you will be spiritual, if you don't believe it, you will lose it. Because Zhou Ziwen didn't understand the method, he chose not to believe it.
Soon, as time passed, the sky outside became darker and darker.
Fortunately, Zhou Ziwen's eyesight was good. Although it was a little dark, he could still look down upon it.
Until the last bit of light in the sky disappeared, Zhou Ziwen finally dug out the complete ginseng.
"Let's go, Tayun, go home."
Seeing that it was getting dark, and fearing that the Chen sisters at home would worry, Zhou Ziwen took off his shirt, carefully wrapped the ginseng inside, then tied a knot with his sleeves, and then called Tayun home.
"Wang Wang."
After staying here all afternoon, Tayun couldn't stand any longer. When he heard Zhou Ziwen's greeting, he immediately became active.
On the way back, Zhou Ziwen was in the dark.
Although it was already dark outside, there was still some light. Zhou Ziwen did not have night blindness and could still barely see his surroundings clearly at a close distance.
After traveling quickly, it took less than half an hour for Zhou Ziwen to return home.
As soon as he arrived at the door of his house, Zhou Ziwen saw that the door of the Chen sisters' house was still open. Outside the door, the two sisters were squatting on the left and right at the door.
The moment they saw Zhou Ziwen, the two girls couldn't wait to stand up, and one of them couldn't help but pounce towards him.
Zhou Ziwen didn't even know how they were sure that this person was them when it was so dark outside.
"Brother Ziwen, you are finally back. You worried me to death."
As soon as this thought flashed through his mind, Zhou Ziwen felt a soft body hugging him tightly.
"I'm fine, I'm just delayed by something." Zhou Ziwen held the ginseng wrapped in clothes in one hand and patted the girl's back to comfort her with the other.
He felt a little guilty at this moment. If he had known that these two girls would be so worried about his comfort, he would not have dug out the ginseng.
Anyway, ginseng won’t escape, so we can just dig it out tomorrow.
"It's great that you're fine, Ziwen. Don't come back so late next time. Yiyi will have to worry for a long time."
Chen Shiying also walked over, rarely scolding her sister for her lack of restraint.
"I'm not the only one who's worried. Sister, you're not very worried yet." Chen Qiaoyi, who was lying in Zhou Ziwen's arms, retorted and left his arms.
But even though she left Zhou Ziwen's arms, she held on to his hand tightly, for fear that he would disappear.
"What am I worried about?" Chen Shiying rarely refuted.
"Thank you sister for your concern, and thank you Yiyi for your concern."
Seeing the two girls caring about him so much, Zhou Ziwen felt warm in his heart.
