Although Tong's house is located in the outskirts of Qingshi City, in fact, there is no one in the east of his house.From the house to the east, all the way to the flat land in the middle of the foot of the Daqing Mountain, is the [-]-acre fertile land passed down by the Tong family's ancestors.To the south of the fertile land is the misty Gaodang Lake. As for the large reed marshes by the lake, it is naturally Tong's several hundred acres of depression.

Tong Qingran and Yang Xici led the way, leading a few people along the path between the reeds and fertile fields, all the way to the distant hills.After a meal, they finally arrived at the foot of the mountain.

Tong Qingran looked up at the lush and seemingly hopeless bamboo forest on the mountain, with a look of surprise on his face.He has been listening to the old housekeeper talk about the surrounding hills, and what he reflected in his mind was a place like the hills in the south of the Yangtze River, with an altitude of up to 400 meters, but the one in front of him needs to lift his head up ninety degrees to see the top of the mountain. Is it really the legendary mountain top?Is it a thousand meters above sea level?If this can still be regarded as a mountain top, what does he think of a person who has seen a height of 800 meters and still consider it a mountain?

"Why don't you leave? Could it be that you were frightened?" Long Anle yelled from behind.

You are scared, your whole family is scared!

Tong Qingran didn't want to argue with him, so she gritted her teeth and walked up the mountain along the path.It's just climbing a mountain, but there is no road on the mountain, so what are you afraid of?

Yang Xici watched from behind him as he rushed forward regardless, and hurriedly followed behind in fright: "Qingran, be careful, slow down!"

However, the two guardians of Xiaoyao Wangfu were faster and rushed to the front. Each of them came out with a knife in their hand to help open the way in front.The short section up the foot of the mountain is the most difficult to walk, because it is full of vines and shrubs, and it needs to be cleaned up bit by bit before going up.But after arriving at the boundary of the bamboo forest, it was not as difficult as it was at the beginning.

In the bamboo forest that covers the sky and the sun, when the wind blows, there is a "rustling" sound, and there is a feeling of being in a fairyland.Moreover, there are no other messy vines in the bamboo forest, just some low plants such as moss and grass, and it is not difficult to walk in it.

Tong Qingran happily looked at the thick and thick bamboos. This is a moso bamboo forest, many of which are as thick as the mouth of a bowl. Just by looking at them, it can be seen that they have grown for many years.These are all good ingredients!Moreover, after he stepped into the bamboo forest, he kicked a bamboo shoot before taking a few steps.

"Qingran, what is it?" Yang Xici asked curiously when he saw Tong Qingran squatting down suddenly, holding the small hatchet he was digging for.

The two brothers from the Long family also approached curiously. The two of them have been in the mountains, but they have never been in the bamboo forest, so they really don't know what is in the bamboo forest.This is also because there is no bamboo in the local area, and the bamboo forest of Tong's family does not know how it appeared.

Long Anle saw Tong Qingran digging vigorously, and simply knelt down to help: "What are you digging?"

"Bamboo shoots!" Tong Qingran dug out the bamboo shoots while talking, peeled off the outer coat three times and twice, revealing the white and tender bamboo shoots inside, and immediately smiled.I want to be able to eat delicious fried pork with bamboo shoots today, and the whole person is very happy.

"Huh? I've seen this thing, it's delicious to cook and eat!" Long Anle was proud of his knowledge.

Yang Xici also nodded: "So this bamboo shoot grows like this in the bamboo forest!"

Obviously they are very excited to see the original appearance of bamboo shoots. In fact, for places with bamboo, it is really an ordinary thing that cannot be more ordinary!

Tong Qingran was very sweaty: "Have you never seen what bamboo shoots look like before?"

"Eat it, does it count as seeing it?" Long Anle said shamelessly.

Tong Qingran was speechless, had she really never seen a bamboo shoot?When he didn't ask!

On the other side, Long Anhe was not far away. Like Tong Qingran just now, he pulled out his precious precious dagger, and dug up a bamboo shoot that had just emerged. After a while, the bamboo shoot was unearthed, excited shouted loudly: "I also dug bamboo shoots!"

Long Anle also became excited when he heard it: "Really? I want to find one too!"

Even the two nursing homes that looked very reliable at first joined the ranks of digging bamboo shoots, and they were happier than the other.On their way into the mountain, they were forced to stop when they reached the edge of the bamboo forest.

Tong Qingran was sweating profusely: "This season is the peak season for picking bamboo shoots. Do you need to be so excited? Also, the bamboo forest is so big, there may be other things. Could it be that we just dig bamboo shoots here for a day? Can we still do it? Have something else to pursue?"

Yang Xici came over with the four or five bamboo shoots he had just dug up, and greeted the others: "Yes, you are almost enough, come back quickly, where are you going to go next?"

"Digging bamboo shoots is so interesting... Let's come again next time!" Long Anle said excitedly to himself.

Interested in digging bamboo shoots?What do you think of those who work so hard to dig bamboo shoots and sell them?

Several people reluctantly stopped what they were doing, and each of them came back with several bamboo shoots, adding up to a pile.However, soon a few people were dumbfounded. They didn't even bring extra tools for loading things. How should they take these bamboo shoots away?Throw it away but no one can bear it!

"Why don't you put it here first and take it back when you come back?" Yang Xici suggested.

"No need!" Tong Qingran shook his head, "Whoever of you can help chop a bamboo over here, it doesn't need to be too thick, I'll just make a basket and just put it on!"

Tong Qingran said it very easily, but the others were surprised, and Yang Xici rushed to ask: "Can you weave a basket?"

"It's a little trick!" Tong Qingran ordered them directly: "Chop a bamboo and come here, whoever will get some rattan, get some more! I dare not say anything else, but it's not a matter of minutes to make something up." Get it done!"

"Ah? What can be done in minutes? What do you mean?" Long Anle asked suspiciously.

"Uh..." Tong Qingran was at a loss for words, and when she was excited, she made a slip of the tongue, "This is not the point, the point is that I can really make it up, you all go and prepare what I want and come back!"

Although everyone was skeptical, they still followed Tong Qingran's words.Several people divided the work and quickly packed up the materials.Tong Qingran asked one of the guards to cut the bamboo into several sections of indeterminate length, and then split them to make bones.

Afterwards, the rattan that the two Long family brothers brought over was slowly wrapped around the bamboo bone, one circle at a time.After weaving the bottom, Tong Qingran carefully baked a few bamboo bones on the fire until they were bent, and then used rattan to weave the basket body.It took a little effort to close the mouth, but it didn't take long, and soon a round basket was woven.It doesn't look very pretty, but it's still pretty solid.Finally, a few rattans are twisted together to make a strap, and a back basket is completed.

Tong Qingran's move really stunned several people.Although, they also know that there are some experienced knitters who don't need much effort to weave a basket, but Tong Qingran is definitely not an experienced knitter?

No matter how the Tong family falls, it's impossible for Tong Qingran to learn this weaving skill, right... from the ancestors?It seems even more impossible. The locals all know that the Tong family is a landowner.The only thing that can be explained is that Tong Qingran is probably really talented in this area!

"That's amazing!" Long Anle commented directly, and several others nodded in affirmation at the same time.

"So-so, No. [-] in the world!" Tong Qingran was obviously very satisfied with scaring this ancient man with this move.

Yang Xici was a little confused: "Huh? What is the world?"

What the hell!Accidentally uttered another famous modern saying, Tong Qingran could only use his ability to pretend to be stupid: "Hey, did I just say something?"

Fortunately, the other people didn't intend to ask this question, and just let him get away with it.After several people packed up, they put the bamboo shoots into a basket, carried by a nurse, and continued to go deep into the bamboo forest.

No more digging bamboo shoots, this is obviously a lot faster to walk.But this bamboo forest is obviously very big, they walked all the way until the top of Rishang's head, but they didn't see any other scenery.On the contrary, I saw a lot more various small animals along the way, most of which were small such as pheasants, hares, bamboo rats, monkeys, foxes and various birds, etc. I also ran into several snakes.But I really didn't encounter any big beasts.

Tong Qingran originally wanted to go up the mountain to see what his bamboo forest looked like, but after seeing it, his interest faded a lot.The rest of the time is mainly to look at the surrounding scenery.

But the others seemed to be in high spirits, especially the Long family brothers. Not long after entering the forest, they began to regret not bringing bows and arrows, otherwise they would definitely have to hunt some wild game.However, even without bows and arrows, those people were not without gains.Along the way, several people shot frequently, and finally caught three pheasants and a fat hare.

At noon, several people were going to find a place to eat and take a break by the way.

"My lord, there is the sound of water ahead!" A guard pointed to the position on the left front and reminded.

"Great, let's go there to rest!" Long Anle ran ahead in that direction.The others didn't have any opinion, so they hurried to follow.

Tong Qingran was already tired at this moment, sweating profusely and panting, wishing she could just stop here and rest.However, considering that there is water in front, it is much more convenient to cook and so on. There is no way, let’s move on!

Yang Xici has been walking beside Tong Qingran, seeing his appearance, he wanted to reach out to support him several times, but when he was about to touch him, he retracted silently.But now seeing that Tong Qingran was really tired, Yang Xici was also very distressed, and finally couldn't bear it anymore and reached out to support him.

"Hey?" Tong Qingran turned his head and glanced at Yang Xici, and half of his body was about to be crushed on him, "I'm exhausted, you should exert more strength!"

Yang Xi resigned, he just struggled for a long time whether to support the person, why?
