……

At two or three o'clock in the afternoon, Ling Qing and Chen Yu had already picked six baskets of wild vegetables.

The main plant is buckwheat, of course there is also alfalfa and some other edible wild vegetables… “We’ll take a rest when we get back!”

"These wild vegetables are enough for us to eat for a long time..." Chen Yu said on the way back to the shelter. First of all, the yard of their shelter was already full of wild vegetables!

Secondly, although Ling Qing said that he was fine, he was not feeling well after all, so he couldn't run around anymore...

"Yeah, our harvest today is really good!" Ling Qing nodded and said.

Harvest always makes people feel a sense of accomplishment and joy...

At this moment, Chen Yu suddenly heard a series of crisp sounds coming from under his feet. It was a very crisp sound, like very dry tea leaves being crushed. Chen Yu stopped and squatted down. "What's wrong, Chen Yu?"

Ling Qing saw Chen Yu suddenly squatting down and asked in confusion. "Wait a minute, I think I found something good..." Chen Yu smiled and said. Then he looked at the ground.

It was a bunch of black things, each one was not very big, but they appeared in clumps! "Ah?? What are these things!"

Ling Qing looked at the black thing and asked in confusion. He had never seen this kind of thing in his hometown... "Good stuff, this is called ground skin..."

Chen Yu picked up a piece, looked at it excitedly and spoke.

Lichens are also called ground fungus or ground fungus. They are a combination of fungi and algae, belonging to the family Nostoc, Cyanobacteria, and are known as the most typical and successful example of symbiosis in nature.

The color of "ground vegetable" is dark green, smooth and bright, and it grows in the shade of rotten grass roots. Ground vegetable contains protein, sugar, inorganic salt, crude fiber 1... In addition, it also contains a variety of vitamins and minerals such as phosphorus, zinc, calcium, etc.!

Each 406g of dried product contains 290mg of calcium, the same as hair moss. It contains 2mg of iron, twice as much as fungus, which is extremely beneficial for the body to replenish iron and nourish blood... This kind of ground skin is very refreshing when it is mixed with cold. So it is called a land jellyfish...

"These things far surpass those wild vegetables in terms of nutritional content and taste." "So we have to pick all of these things back now..." Chen Yu said excitedly.

When he was a kid, this kind of food was his favorite when served cold!

I didn't expect to encounter such a thing in such a place. It really surprised Chen Yu...

But think about it, this kind of thing has a very wide range of living environments, and can grow between minus thirty degrees and thirty degrees, so it's not surprising that it's so simple here.

“Is it really delicious?”

"Then let's pick them all up, so we have one more dish to prepare!" Ling Qing started picking them up without saying anything. Since Chen Yu said they were delicious, they must be right...

After seeing the ground fungus, Chen Yu decisively dropped the wild vegetables in his back grate! Because the difference in impact between the two is too big. Of course, I can definitely come again, but I have come so many times today, and I am a little lazy...

The two of them picked up a whole bag of ground vegetables before they stopped. This kind of thing is not easy to pick up because it is very small. It is not so easy to pick up a bag of it!

This time, it took nearly three hours. When we returned, it was already around two o'clock in the afternoon!

After Chen Yu dried a bag of wild vegetables and a bag of ground vegetables, he began to prepare lunch. Chen Yu was already impatient to taste the taste of his childhood... "Let me cook today. You can rest for a day."

After drying all the ground vegetables and wild vegetables, Chen Yu said to Ling Qing.

First of all, Ling Qing probably doesn't know how to cook ground vegetables. Secondly, Ling Qing has been feeling a little uncomfortable these days because he has done so much work. So he can have a good rest! "Yeah." Ling Qing nodded. Although his stomach didn't hurt for the time being, he didn't dare to overwork himself.

……

Chen Yu made wild vegetable egg noodles today.

Then I made a cold dish of ground vegetables!

Although I don't know if Ling Qingxi doesn't like this combination, Chen Yu definitely likes it very much. Because when he was a child, his lunch and dinner were almost all like this. "Let's eat..."

After Chen Yu finished cooking, he opened his mouth and called out.

Ling Qing walked out of the room and looked at the delicious noodles and cold ground vegetables on the table. His appetite instantly increased! "This dish looks so delicious!"

Ling Qing looked at the ground vegetables in front of him with envy. They were mixed with Oxalis, a small amount of chili sauce and lard.

Black, green and a little red are mixed together, and the heated lard is poured on top. It looks very appetizing... "It tastes good, but you have to eat less. You can't eat cold food these days, you should know that, right?" Chen Yu said seriously.

If I eat too much and have a stomachache at night, that would be troublesome... "Oh, I know!"

Ling Qing nodded. Why did she feel that Chen Yu was as nagging as her grandma?

Then Ling Qing picked up a piece of ground vegetable and put it into his mouth. It was sour, spicy, and had the aroma of the boiled lard. It tasted very good. "This... this is too delicious!" Ling Qing's eyes lit up and he looked at Chen Yu and said. Then he picked up another piece and put it into his mouth. "Why do you think I'm so excited?" Chen Yu pouted and said.

In my impression, ground vegetables are not inferior to those expensive seafoods... Chen Yu started to eat. Although there were not many seasonings, it still had the original taste. It was crispy, smooth and very refreshing! "Okay, let's eat quickly!" "We still have some work to do after dinner!"

After the two of them finished dinner, it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon. "You can rest at home for a while, I'll go out for a walk." Chen Yu looked at Ling Qing and said.

She was already tired enough this morning. If she worked harder in the afternoon, she would feel uncomfortable in her stomach again in the evening! "Ah! Are you going somewhere?" Ling Qing looked at Chen Yu and asked.

To be honest, I really don't like staying in the shelter alone. It feels a bit too lonely... "I don't have a target now, so I'll just walk around and see if I can find something useful..." Chen Yu said with a smile.

Originally he was planning to make iron tools, but it was already past three in the afternoon and it would probably be very late by the time he finished smelting the iron.

So it would be better to work on ironmaking all day tomorrow and go out to explore today. After all, it is such a big island, and there are still many places that I have not explored even around the shelter!
