"Straw mushroom?!" Seeing the small off-white mushroom brought back by Xiao Hei and placed at his feet, Bai Xiong was stunned.

Since he came to this world, he has never seen mushrooms. He always thought that there were no mushrooms in this continent, but he didn’t expect that the seasons were wrong before, so the mushrooms didn’t grow. Now, it’s probably the season, so, little Hei came back with the mushrooms in his mouth, did he want to eat mushrooms?

Bai Xiong never doubted that the straw mushroom brought back by Xiao Hei was poisonous. In fact, the straw mushroom looked exactly the same as the one he used to eat in his previous life, probably because it had just grown and the canopy hadn’t been opened yet. It is not big, but this kind of straw mushroom is much more delicious than the one with the umbrella cover fully opened, and it is most suitable for frying with meat.

In the previous life, next to their kindergarten was the famous forest park in this city. Bai Xiong likes to go for a run in the forest park after the rain in summer and autumn, because the air is the freshest at that time, and there will be unexpected rewards: in the forest of the park, you can find your favorite The mushrooms I eat include mountain bracken, mountain celery, thorn sprouts, etc. If you are lucky, you can also pick wild fresh goji berries. You can know so many wild mushrooms and wild vegetables because the forest park often has local The old man went to the mountains to look for this kind of wild vegetables, and he learned a lot, so he got to know many kinds of wild mushrooms and wild vegetables, otherwise he would not dare to pick them and eat them himself.

The one brought back by Xiao Hei is obviously the most common straw mushroom. This kind of straw mushroom likes to grow in damp and rotten straw or rotten leaves. "Rat fungus".

"Are all the mushrooms growing this year? It seems that the rainy season is really coming to an end." Seeing Xiao Hei come back with a straw mushroom in his mouth, Bai Cao found a straw basket with a smile, "Bai Xiong, don't you want to cook it?" Fish soup? Why don't we pick some mushrooms, it's delicious in fish soup, mushrooms are only available in the last few days after the rainy season, so it's hard to get them."

Bai Xiong's eyes lit up, he picked up Xiao Hei and put him in the basket, told Tian Qing that he would cook fish soup for him when he came back, and went to pick mushrooms with Bai Cao and the others.

Baicao seemed to know where the straw mushrooms were, and led them up the mountain from the back of the cave. When they climbed over the top of the mountain, it suddenly became clear to them. Unexpectedly, there was a large pasture on the back of the mountain!

"There are a lot of these mushrooms here. When the harvest season comes, we will come here to collect grass seeds and save them for the snow season."

I see!Only such a large pasture can produce enough wild grass seeds to feed the pheasants and their chicks in the tribe.

Bai Xiong followed the white grass all the way down the mountain, but there was no way, so they pushed aside the half-person tall weeds and walked all the way down the mountain.

"The rainy season is not over yet, and the mushrooms on the top of the mountain haven't grown up yet. We're going to pick them at the bottom of the mountain." Baicao said while pointing at their feet. Sure enough, some small white mushrooms popped up, but they were too small to pick. come to eat.

After walking for another 10 minutes, Baicao pushed aside the nearby weeds and observed, with a satisfied smile on his face: "This is it, let's quickly pick it up and make soup. I haven't eaten such fresh mushrooms for a long time. .”

The whole rainy season belongs to the plants. This pasture has grown from a small seedling to a height of half a person in just over a month. When the long grass is pushed aside, there are large and small straw mushrooms hidden in the grass. There is a rule for finding this kind of straw mushrooms. Usually, if you can pick mushrooms in the first year, you can definitely find them in the second year, and there are a lot of places. Baicao and the others come here every year to pick straw mushrooms. Naturally, they know where to find them. Find the straw mushrooms.

It is very troublesome to poke through the grass to find mushrooms. Baicao and the other pheasants who came together quickly took out the stone knife, swished and swished a few times, and cut off all the wild grass in this piece, revealing the short grass roots and the mushrooms hidden underneath. The straw mushrooms came, Baicao threw the wild grass aside, and did not forget to teach the cubs he brought——

"When you go out to experience and look for food in the wild in the future, you must remember that when you encounter such a large piece of wild grass, first use a stone knife to stir it a few times outside, so that if there is a grass snake hidden in it, it will escape. , if you want to eat the grass seeds on it, it is best to cut off all the grass, take it to the camping place and then slowly pick off the grass seeds, don’t stay here for a long time.”

"These grasses can be used as mats when camping, or used to bind prey. If they are not used up, they can be thrown there. If there is no firewood when they come back, they can be used to start a fire."

Bai Xiong was very glad that he brought Xiao Hei with him. This kind of on-site teaching was obviously more impressive than talking casually around the fire in the tribe. Moreover, these life skills that Bai Cao said were very helpful for the first time. It is really practical for the cubs who go out to practice. At least, he did not expect that a piece of wild grass can be so particular.

There are a lot of straw mushrooms in this area. They picked the big straw mushrooms with the canopy closed, or only half opened. They picked several baskets, and tied a few bundles of long grass on their backs, ready to take them back and dry them. In order to teach the cubs how to weave straw mats for camping by themselves, these life skills must be learned as much as possible before the cubs leave the tribe.

Seeing this scene, Bai Xiong suffered another anxiety attack as a teacher.

The preschool education plan of Baishang Tribe is really hard to describe!Just like those inexperienced parents, when they spoil their children, they want to spoil their children, but when they go to school, they dislike their children who can't do this or that, and don't ask themselves why their children can't do anything?Didn't they pet them themselves?

If he and Xiao Hei were in the time and space he lived in, he could have made a more realistic early education plan for Xiao Hei based on his life experience. However, everything here is unfamiliar to him. Bring him here, he doesn't even know what dangers lie beneath this pasture, let alone how to teach Xiao Hei.

"Bai Xiong, what's wrong with you? You look so bad?" Bai Cao saw that there was something wrong with his face, and patted him on the shoulder.

"It's nothing, Brother Baicao, the rainy season is coming to an end now, when you go out to collect food, can you bring me and Xiao Hei with you?" Bai Xiong wiped his face, since nothing can be changed, then he also I can only do as the Romans do, and try to make up for my lack of experience with practice.

"I was going to bring you together. From today until Xiao Hei and the others leave the tribe for the first time to experience, not only we want to teach them how to find edible food in the wild, but Bai Ying and the others will also bring the cubs Go to the wild and try to hunt." As if thinking of something, Baicao gave him a funny look, "I remember that before your first experience, you refused to leave the tribe with us, and I threw you into the animal skin In the bag, you almost scratched my bag. Later, Bai Ying and the others wanted to take you to hunt, but you refused to go. If you weren’t so good-looking, do you think there would be hens in our tribe rushing to get you? ?”

"Rushing for it" or something, Bai Xiong's scalp tingles when he thinks of the scene when he just came here, but he can vaguely remember that the original body of this body is probably because he was scared when he went hunting with his parents. It’s broken, so he refuses to leave the tribe to practice life and death, so that the little rooster of his age can at least catch a few grass snakes. He is still eating collective households in the tribe. No wonder the patriarch and the others disliked him so much at first. Who would like to support someone who eats rice and doesn't work?He is not the patriarch's own son.

Thinking of this, Bai Xiong forced a smile: "At that time, I was really terrified. After I had Xiao Hei, I realized that I should hunt and cook well to raise the cubs."

"That's right! We, the pheasant family, will understand many things only when we really have our own eggs." Bai Cao sighed. If Bai Ying proposed to extend the training time of the cubs, he would definitely agree. Vote for it, but, looking at the little chick curled up in the straw basket sleeping soundly, Baicao's heart is soft.

Starting today, they will learn to let go and let the children conquer this continent by themselves.

The straw mushrooms they just picked are very fresh, and Baicao and the others know that Baixiong cooks deliciously, so they all surround him with straw baskets, wanting to see how he makes straw mushrooms.

Bai Xiong also wanted to teach Xiao Hei how to cook straw mushrooms, so he took Xiao Hei out and asked him to squat on the corner of the chopping board with the other chicks. He poured the cleaned straw mushrooms on the chopping board and started Teacher Bai's scene teaching--

"The roots of the straw mushrooms are inedible. There are many things that make people sick, so they must be cut off." Cut off the roots with a stone knife, and then cut the straw mushrooms into slices one by one.

"In the wild, if you can't catch prey, you can make a pot of broth with straw mushrooms and my diced meat. You see." Spoon the diced meat with meat oil and put it in another stone pot. When the solidified meat oil melts, throw the sliced ​​straw mushrooms in and stir fry for a few times, then pour in clean water and cover with the lid.

"Cover it like this and cook until the mushroom slices inside become soft, then add salt, if you don't have salt, you can pick some leaves of gray vegetables, chop them and sprinkle them in, a pot of fresh mushroom broth is ready .”

"Of course, if you catch the prey, you can cut the meat of the prey into pieces, stir fry it in the pot first, then add water, cook until bubbling, and pour in the sliced ​​mushrooms. This is better than the stewed one just now. It takes a little longer, look at this firewood, you have to burn such a long firewood, or the soup inside has turned white, and the meat has been stewed, before you can eat it. After the stew, add salt or gray vegetables, remember Are you staying?"

"Baixiong, this is too complicated. Is there a simple way?" Baicao was dazzled by the sight, and then looked at their chick Fang, who couldn't bear to fight and play with other chicks. Among the hatched chicks, Xiao Hei from Baixiong's family was the most patient, watching Baixiong's movements to learn.

I'm so tired!
