After the bamboo fungus can be cultivated artificially, you can easily buy dried bamboo fungus in the market. Unfortunately, Wen Zheng has not studied the breeding technology. He only knows that the black mushroom cap on the head of the bamboo fungus and the small white ring at the bottom are inedible. Remove them These two parts are then placed in the sun for vigorous exposure.

Fresh bamboo fungus will rot quickly if it is not handled after picking. In modern times, drying is usually used, and the color of dried bamboo fungus varies with the degree of drying.Mild drying can keep the white color, and the stronger the drying intensity, the darker the color of the dried bamboo fungus will be, from white to yellow.

Wen Zheng grabbed the dried bamboo fungus and put them in the water to soak their hair. The sunlight on the island was just right, which not only dried the bamboo fungus, but also kept them white and beautiful in appearance.

In the process of soaking the bamboo fungus, Wen Zheng took down the bird meat hanging on the stone wall.

During the period of making farm tools, Wen Zheng went to check the traps next to the mud pit every three days.The trap didn't trigger the first time he went, so he made two more around by the way.As a result, when we passed yesterday, we did not see the wild boar in the trap, but picked up an injured seabird on the road.

Wen Zheng used to eat stewed chicken with bamboo fungus, but now that he doesn’t have any chicken, he uses bird meat instead.This seabird was very small, and after removing its feathers and viscera, it didn't have much meat, and Wen Zheng chopped it into small pieces.

The lard had already been eaten, there was no oil for stir-frying, and bird meat was more difficult to cook than chicken, so Wen Zheng could only think of a special cooking method.

Take out the last big coconut in the cave, split the small cover with an ax against the upper layer of the coconut shell, scrape out the coconut meat inside with a bamboo knife, cut it into strips and put it in a bamboo tube with coconut milk.

The fresh water in the shell was boiled, Wen Zheng put some sea salt into it, then added the chopped bird meat to blanch, then put the blanched chicken directly into the coconut shell, poured it into the coconut shell, soaked it and kneaded it again Dried bamboo fungus, coconut milk and coconut meat strips, as well as the right amount of sea salt and sour juice.

Wen Zheng used the method of making beggar chicken, covered the small piece of coconut that was cut off, with almost no gaps, wrapped the processed coconut tightly with banana leaves and rope, and buried it under the bacon rack outside the cave .

It is often used to stew things there, and the stones inside have not been moved. After fixing the position of the coconut shell, cover the soil and burn the fire, and slowly stew the stewed bird soup with coconut milk and bamboo fungus below.

After nearly ten days of busy work, Wen Zheng was finally able to rest well.While waiting for the food to be ready, Wen Zheng took out a bamboo tube from the cave with the word snacks engraved on it.

Shaking the bamboo tube, there was a rattling sound inside, and I poured the contents into the palm of my hand, it was yellow plantain slices.Wen Zheng cut the ripe plantains into slices and put them in the sun to dry. The dried plantain slices were sweet and sour, with a crispy taste. Wen Zheng and Tuantuan both liked to eat them.

Speaking of Tuantuan, Wen Zheng glanced into the cave twice. It was broad daylight, the sun outside was just right, and Tuantuan was still sleeping in the bird's nest.

On the day he went to cut the iron tree, Wen Zheng noticed that Tuantuan's body was larger than the two apparently similar birds. At first he thought it was because he raised it well, but in the past ten days, Tuantuan's size has grown a circle again.

Wen Zheng began to suspect that the two birds he met last time might be young birds that hadn't grown up yet, so that could explain Tuantuan's growth.And in the past few days, the time spent sleeping has increased, which should be caused by Tuantuan's continued growth.

After taking a few sips of mint tea, Wen Zheng looked at the scenery in the distance. The sea and the sky meet, the sky and water are the same color, the breeze comes slowly, and the water waves are calm, which makes people feel refreshed.

The fire burned for two hours, and a pot of sea salt was boiled out. Wen Zheng was not in a hurry, took out some dried wild yams, put them in shells and steamed them over water, and waited until the dried wild yams were steamed before extinguishing the fire , Pull out the coconut buried below.

After untying the rope, peel off the dried leaves, gently lift the coconut shell on the top with a bamboo knife, and a light but overbearing aroma appears in the air in an instant, even tempting to wake up the sleeping ball in the cave .

In the light yellow clear soup, white bamboo fungus and coconut meat accompany the bird meat.Coconut juice itself has a natural sweetness, and the bamboo fungus absorbs the delicious soup like a sponge. The coconut meat is boiled soft, and the bird meat is stewed until the flesh and bones are separated.

Pick up a piece of bamboo fungus with chopsticks, the soup drips back into the coconut shell due to gravity, quickly put it in your mouth, and the soup overflows after a bite.The bird meat is tender and smooth, and it tastes salty, fragrant and sweet when it is stewed for too long.The coconut meat is very soft and glutinous, and has a slight sweetness.Take another sip of hot soup, sweet and rich, leaving a fragrance on your lips and teeth.

Wen Zheng picked out a few chopsticks from all the ingredients inside, and then used a bamboo spoon to pour out some soup, and moved it to Tuantuan who was waiting beside him.

One person and one bird began to enjoy the food at the same time. Wen Zheng's chopsticks never stopped. Every ingredient in it was extraordinarily delicious. With these dishes, even the mashed wild taro was extraordinarily sweet, and in the end even the soup was completely drank.

After eating, Wen Zheng sat contentedly at the entrance of the cave, while Tuantuan ran to lie down on the black box on the shelf, although he didn't sleep.

After sitting for a few minutes, Wen Zheng stood up to pack his things.As usual, after staying on the black box for a few minutes, Tuantuan ran over to rub against Wen Zheng, spread his wings and flew into the sky after saying hello, and soon disappeared, leaving Wen Zheng alone at home.

Wen Zheng drank two sips of water, took a hoe and walked to the farmland area.The grass that had been placed on the ground a few days ago had dried up. Wen Zheng found a time when there was no wind, and carefully ignited the dry grass with fire. During the burning of the dry grass, the insect eggs and grass seeds in the ground were burned to death.

The plant ash produced after the dry grass is burned is alkaline, and the plant ash mixed in the saline-alkali soil will only make the land situation worse, so Wen Zheng collected them and put them in bamboo baskets covered with leaves.

Today's farmland is just without weeds and stones. The soil is not particularly hard, but it is not so easy to turn it over.Wen Zheng rubbed his forehead. He was already tired from making farm tools, so he decided to rest for two days before starting to plow the ground.

However, in the afternoon of the second day, the island ushered in a heavy rain that came and went in a hurry, and the land was irrigated by the rain and became much softer.Wen Zheng only rested for one day in total, and turned over the land with a hoe.

Wen Zheng’s other plans were put on hold again by the work of digging the land. He thoroughly experienced the hardships of the ancient working people, and tried to arrange his daily time reasonably.

It was like this for three days of hoeing every day. The two farmlands were roughly turned over by the hoe. Wen Zheng was so tired that his waist ached and his back ached, and new calluses appeared on his hands.Looking at the hard fields that had recovered after being dried by the sun, Wen Zheng prepared to rest for a day before plowing with a wooden plow.

Digging the ground is more tiring than making farm tools. Wen Zheng hasn't gone to the mud pit to check the traps these days. After all, he hasn't caught them for so long, and he has no confidence in those traps.Wen Zheng didn't even go to check the flowering bamboo forest that was relatively close to the cave. The only thing he did every day was to go fishing on the beach.

Eating dried bacon and taro every day will be boring, and these can be stored for a long time, and they belong to the cave's food reserves, so they cannot be eaten like this.

So Wen Zheng repaired the old fishing nets he picked up in the garbage dump, rowed a little farther on a bamboo raft, and tried to catch fish with the fishing nets.

In the few times when he first started fishing, Wen Zheng didn't succeed. After a few attempts, he mastered the skill. The efficiency of fishing with fishing nets is much higher than that of bamboo forks.In addition to fresh sea fish, you can also catch a lot of sea shrimp and crab.

While eating these seafood, Wen Zheng thought of the delicacy of coconut crabs, but he was so busy every day, how could he have time to set up traps to trap coconut crabs, he could only think about it occasionally.

Wen Zheng didn't even go to the beach during the rest day. The biggest activity was getting up in the morning and doing Tai Chi and Military Boxing a few times, and cooking three delicious meals.

Thinking about not going to the bamboo forest for a long time, and not checking the traps around the mud pit, Wen Zheng didn't rush to start work, and planned to spend another half day to go shopping.

He was wearing a piece of cotton clothes that was cut short, Wen Zheng cleaned the part that was torn off to bandage the wound, and put it in the cave for reuse, although Wen Zheng hoped that it would never come in handy.

With the first ray of sunshine in the morning, Wen Zheng had already set out from the cave, arrived at the gravel mountain and headed northeast.

Looking at the clothes with holes in the sleeves, Wen Zheng sighed. Even if they take turns changing and washing with the straw clothes, this set of excellent quality clothes will inevitably be damaged, and I don't know how long it will last.

He didn't find any clothes in the garbage dump last time, only a piece of canvas was found, but this waterproof canvas has other uses, and he plans to make a set of clothes out of animal skins.

Although no wild boar has been caught recently, even if Wen Zheng is caught, he would like to raise it, but the shark skin has not been tanned last time.Wen Zheng has already prepared fish bones that can be used as needles, and the thread can be removed from the fishing net. After the shark skin is tanned, a suit of clothes can be sewn.

According to the best route he had mastered, it didn't take long for Wen Zheng to see the shadow of the bamboo forest, and Tuantuan took the initiative to fly ahead to lead the way without Wen Zheng checking the marks left behind.

The bamboo fungus in the bamboo forest has been picked clean by Wen Zheng, and the blooming bamboo flowers have turned from white to light green. This time, if you look at it from the trees in the distance, you won’t be able to see the special features of this bamboo forest. Zheng once again lamented his good luck.

Hearing Tuantuan screaming excitedly, Wen Zheng ran over in a hurry, and saw that the bamboo flower next to Tuantuan had withered, and the place where the bamboo flower originally grew had grown small, green bamboo fruits.

"Tuantuan, you are really a great hero." Wen Zheng walked around the bamboo tree several times, muttering excitedly, "Now it is firm, and when I sow rice and barley seeds into the farmland, these bamboo fruits should It will be ripe for picking."

Bamboo and rice wheat are both gramineous plants. The bamboo fruit is similar to rice wheat, and the blue rice grains are wrapped in the shell.Harvesting begins when the husk turns from green to light red.

Leaving the bamboo forest with a happy mood, Wen Zheng continued to walk southeast and entered the range of the mountain forest. In addition to various unknown big trees and unknown wild flowers and weeds, there were many small animals.

Wen Zheng followed the flight path of bees last time and found a huge beehive. He salivated at the thought of sweet honey, but he didn't have the strength to deal with swarms of bees, so he could only look at the "honey" and sigh.

He couldn't even catch the wild boar, and the three traps he set up have remained silent until now.Wen Zheng is going to check the trap now, but he has no hope.
