Chapter 177: Chapter 177: The Golden Scales in the water, the fragrant fungus in the forest, the rare birds in the sky, and the strange beasts in the mountains
Ning Fei walked outside and found an empty space with no trees around. Then, he started to put up shelves and prepared to cook.
It was almost noon, and the weather was warm.
In the reindeer tribe, many people noticed Ning Fei not far away when they walked out.
Someone asked the hunter, “Who is that person?”
The hunter replied, “He came from the grassland. He seems to be a Taoist priest.”
Regarding this, no one said much. They were just curious. Occasionally, they would walk out of the tribe and look at Ning Fei.
After Ning Fei was done packing, he said to the netizens,
“As the saying goes, the rich scale is in the water, the fragrant fungus is in the forest, the rare birds are in the sky, and the strange beasts are in the mountains.”
“There are too many treasures here.”
“We’ll have mushroom and rabbit meat for lunch. Now, I’ll go and find some mushrooms and wild vegetables.”
Many netizens laughed when they heard Ning Fei’s words.
“It’s time for Abbey Dean Ning’s treasure hunt in the mountains again.”
......
As expected, Ning Fei strolled in the mountains for about half an hour. When he came back, he was already full of mushrooms.
“This is purple painted face mushroom, one of the best mushrooms in the Deep Mountains.”
“This is wood ear mushroom, also known as Black Pine Mushroom. The meat is tender, chewy, and very expensive.”
“This is chicken blood mushroom, which is very helpful in preventing diabetes.”
“This is Porcini, the ‘Big Brother’of wild edible mushrooms. The bigger umbrella has a diameter of 20 centimeters and a thickness of 5 centimeters. It is especially fragrant when stewed with meat.”
Ning Fei set up the shelf and took out the small pot. Then, he poured all the water in the cup into it and began to cook it slowly, preparing to make a pot of mushroom braised rabbit meat.
He took some time to take a look at the live stream bullet screen and found that [ medicine merchant ] had given him five super rockets and attached a message:
“Abbey Dean Ning, can you sell me some wild black pine mushrooms?”
Ning Fei smiled when he saw the comments and bullet comments of [ herb merchant ] . “Why do you want to buy mushrooms from me?”
The netizens were curious and could not help but ask,
“Can anyone tell us how much the things that the herb merchant wants to buy are worth?”
“Black pine nuts are very expensive. Normally, the price would be a few hundred yuan per catty, but in the wild, it would be around 2,000 yuan per catty.”
“How much is it? 2,000 yuan per catty?”
After hearing the price, many netizens could not remain calm.
Just now, Ning Fei had randomly picked some, and it was already more than 2 catty.
Didn’t that mean that Ning Fei could earn 4,000 to 5,000 yuan in half an hour by picking mushrooms?
Could picking mushrooms earn that much money?
“Are you serious? I want to go to the great Xing ‘an mountains to dig mushrooms.”
“It’s deep in the mountains, and the place is special. It’s not easy to find.”
“Wild black pine nuts are indeed very expensive, but they are worth it because the nutritional value is very high.”
“I want to buy one catty of black pine nuts, Abbey Dean Ning!”
“Give me one catty of black pine nuts too!”
Everyone started shouting again.
Ning Fei smiled helplessly after seeing these bullet screens and said,
“I’m sorry, everyone. There aren’t that many black pine nuts left.”
“There’s still a little over a Jin here. It’s first come, first served. I’ll give it to [ herb merchant ] .”
“After I leave, I’ll find a courier to send it to you.”
After hearing Ning Fei’s words, the other netizens were extremely envious, but the herb merchant was exceptionally happy.
He knew that wild black pine nuts were truly a delicacy in the world. When stewed together with meat, the taste was indescribably fragrant.
There was not much water in the pot. When Ning Fei saw that the water was boiling, he first added some seasoning onions, ginger, and garlic to make the taste good.
Then, Ning Fei took out the rabbit meat and skillfully cut it with a small knife before putting it into the small pot.
The conditions in the wild were a little worse, so stir-frying some rabbit meat in advance would have a better effect.
However, Ning Fei was not that particular. He poured in some clean water and put in all the washed mushrooms.
What followed was a long wait.
Halfway through, Ning Fei took a cup of water and made a trip to the reindeer tribe.
When the people in the tribe heard that he was here to get a cup of water, they were very welcoming and helped him fill the cup completely.
At the same time, Ning Fei also briefly observed some of the reindeer tribes.
He thought to himself, “The astrological signs indicate that there are creatures rich in spiritual energy here. They don’t seem to be in the tribe.”
“Could they be nearby?”
After fetching the water, Ning Fei smiled and thanked him. Then, he returned to the side of the fire.
He was in an open space surrounded by a dense forest. The black handsome followed beside him and rested comfortably.
Not long after, the Little Falcon flew back. During this period of time, it was nowhere to be found.
However, the forest was the Little Falcon’s home. It stood at the top of the food chain, so there was no need to worry about any danger.
Ning Fei specially left some raw rabbit meat to feed the little falcon. Seeing that it had returned, he immediately put the rabbit meat aside.
“You’ve had a good time.”
Ning Fei looked at the Little Falcon and smiled.
The Little Falcon landed on the ground and ate all the rabbit meat. It cried out in satisfaction.
Ning Fei looked at the reindeer tribe in the distance. It was surrounded by mountains and ridges. There was a unique style of “Pimp’s”residence. Occasionally, he would see one or two reindeer wandering around the tribe, it was very similar to the style of a nomadic hunting tribe.
“Ewenke, people who live in the mountains and forests.”
“They are the ones who truly love the forest.”
Ning Fei sighed.
Then, Ning Fei said to the netizens:
“The fate of reindeer and Ewenke is closely linked. The people in the tribe will provide the reindeer with the necessary salt to survive, will find suitable herbs for the reindeer who are sick, and will also protect the reindeer from poachers.”
“But now that the traditional Ewenke people are becoming fewer and fewer, the reindeer are inevitably dying out.”
“The Ewenks are a very artistic race.”
“They once wrote in a poem: The Bonfire is still flying, the birch boat is floating towards the museum, there is the silent sound of the Orukua River.”
“I remember there is a documentary about reindeer, and at the end there is a monologue from the EWENKS:”
“If there is a more civilized world of police.”
“Shoot me
“Then, shoot me.”
Ning Fei sighed.
The progress of civilization had determined that more and more people would leave the forest and live on the grasslands or plains. In this way, the tribe with less than a hundred people would not be able to survive for long.
What was connected to it was the fate of the reindeer.
The netizens also felt the change in Ning Fei’s mood.
A Netizen said:
“This is the first time I’ve seen Abbey Dean Ning’s mood like this.”
“He seems to be pitying something.”
“The traditional hunting and nomadic lifestyle is destined to be eliminated. I wonder what will happen to the reindeer tribe in the future.”
“Turn off the bullet screen and just look at the camera lens. The scene now is really artistic.”
With the Netizen saying this, many netizens temporarily chose to turn off the bullet screen.
After the bullet screens disappeared, the scene instantly became clear.
The location of the drone was behind Ning Fei, and it took a picture of Ning Fei’s back together with the reindeer tribe not far away.
This was a wonderful composition. In the distance, there was smoke rising from the tribe. One could vaguely see a few hunters busying themselves in the tribe, and at the same time, one or two reindeer were resting at the side.
Ning Fei looked in that direction from a distance. His back looked somewhat carefree and somewhat lonely.
After that, Ning Fei did not think any further. He returned to the side of the fire, added some firewood, and continued to cook the mushroom rabbit meat.
He opened the lid of the pot to take a look. The steam was rising. The mushrooms in the pot were boiling in the boiling water. The rabbit meat was completely cooked.
This pot of mushroom stewed meat looked beautiful, fragrant, and tasty. It could not help but make people salivate. Their appetite was aroused.
Ning Fei took two more branches and peeled off the bark to use as chopsticks.
He slowly picked up a piece of rabbit meat and tasted it in his mouth. It tasted very good.
“Mmm, the rabbit meat cooked by the mushrooms has indeed become much better. The meat has also become firm and tender. The taste is very good.”
“There’s still something missing.”
When the netizens saw this scene, they couldn’t help but drool.
Because it was too dramatic, one of the netizens couldn’t help but ask, “What’s Missing?”
Ning Fei thought about it for a while and said,
“Some of the pickled vegetables i pickled at Qingfeng temple are missing.”
“I’ve been out for a few days, and I kind of miss the taste of Qingfeng Temple.”
Then, Ning Fei picked up the rabbit meat and mushrooms in the pot with his chopsticks and began to eat at a leisurely pace.
Ning Fei was definitely a suitable person to eat. In other words, the rabbit meat he made was indeed very delicious. Whether it was the overall shape of the meat, the way Ning Fei ate the meat, or the look on Ning Fei’s face, they could not help but be envious.
At the same time, in a certain family, the wife saw her husband looking at his phone and giggling foolishly. From time to time, she even swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, suspecting that her husband was watching some improper female streamer dancing.
She angrily went over to catch the adulterer, intending to vent her anger. However, when she went over, she found that her husband was actually watching a Taoist priest eating mushrooms in the mountain forest.
“What’s wrong? What’s the matter?”The man raised his head and asked in surprise.
The woman instantly changed her smiling face and said, “Ah, nothing. The meal is ready. I’ll call you.”
“Let’s go and eat. Are there mushrooms? Is there meat?”The man asked happily. He seemed to have a good appetite.
“There’s meat, there’s meat.”The woman answered a few words and then shrugged. She did not care about the situation and went over to get the rice.
Ning Fei finished the rabbit meat and drank the mushroom soup. He felt very warm in his stomach and even began to sweat slightly.
Before he could finish drinking, the system’s voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
“Ding! Detected traces of spirit deer activity within a kilometer of the host.”
“Mission activated: Save Spirit Deer.”
“Mission reward: treasure hunting technique.”
“Mission time limit: One Hour.”
Hearing the system’s notification, Ning Fei was slightly stunned.
“This system still has a mission?”
