Iron Bull Legend

Chapter 493 Wild Ginseng Garden

Tieniu ate the plump and tender rabbit meat by himself. It felt really sweet. He hadn't eaten roasted rabbit meat for a long time. He had roasted it on the battlefield in southern Xinjiang with Wang Yan and the few nurses back to the rear base. It has been several years since the last time.

Thinking of the past, I also thought of those comrades in the fire. Although many of them did not know their names, we were really like brothers and sisters together, just like Gao Daquan, regardless of personal Life and death, at the critical moment of the artillery attack, he forced himself into the cat's ear hole and blocked the outside with his own body. His ears also bled from the impact of the explosion and the shell.

This is the camaraderie of comrades, the deep feelings, and the brothers who risk their lives to fight in front of you. Tieniu's tears flowed down unconsciously, and the salty feeling flowed into his mouth.

"Hey, brothers, are you okay?" Tieniu murmured to himself and put down the rabbit meat in his hands. Some of those brothers have already slept in the endless mountains, with the brothers guarding Southern Xinjiang. Some were injured and returned to their hometowns. Some were working hard on various fronts, but they were digging and digging here.

"Oh, brothers, you..." The macaw put down the food and suddenly spoke. However, he seemed to have forgotten the next words and could not remember how to say them.

Tieniu could only give a wry smile and continue to work hard. After all, so many wild ginseng cannot be prepared in a short while. It must be done quickly, otherwise, too much time will be wasted here. When I came out, I hadn't asked for leave from Fifth Brother. There were still so many jadeite mines that had not been mined, so we had to speed up.

After eating more than half of the rabbit meat, Tieniu drank some water and started working again without taking a rest. He had to seize the time to finish the things here quickly.

The little guy seemed to be familiar with Tieniu. He bought it after a meal of rabbit meat. He ran to Tieniu and watched Tieniu dig out the wild ginseng one by one, while he kept learning. Birds chirped, and from time to time when Tie Niu talked to him, he imitated Tie Niu's accent and learned a few words from him.

Tieniu spent the whole afternoon chatting in a relaxed and friendly way with the little guy. When the sun completely set and night fell, Tieniu straightened up his aching waist and looked at the macaw lying on the side. Only then did I realize how late it was.

He took out a yellow sheep again and an iron pot, slaughtered the yellow sheep, cut it into small pieces and stewed it in the iron pot. He always ate meat. Although he was not tired of it, he could still eat a few meals occasionally. .

As night fell, the meat in the iron pot was already rotten. He took out a small basin, filled it with a few pieces of meat, and put it aside to dry when it was not so hot. Then he tore it into pieces and threw them to the little guy, the macaw. It’s true that there are no taboos on meat or vegetables. You can eat whatever you are given, and there are no taboos.

Tieniu hurriedly took advantage of the light of the campfire to eat meat and drink soup. Although he couldn't dig wild ginseng at night, he could still have a good rest. It was also very interesting to have the little guy's company here.

The night in the Endless Mountains became quiet. Only the night owls that came out to hunt at night called out occasionally. Even the robins that kept noisy during the day closed their mouths. The occasional breeze blew over, giving this sweltering The valley brings a little relief.

Tieniu was lying in the tent, and the macaw that had been jumping around during the day also calmed down and nestled next to Tieniu's head, using his hair as a nest and lying there honestly.

Tieniu had been tired for a day and his back was sore. He fell asleep as soon as he got off the trip. There were no wild beasts that could threaten him near him, only poisonous snakes. He closed the zipper door of the tent and felt safe.

In the dark night, many small animals have begun to rest. This is a natural reaction. However, many rats that hunt at night have come out. Not far from Tieniu's tent, several rats have slipped out and are in the process of eating. Head towards Iron Bull's tent.

Several mice kept circling around Tieniu's tent. They had already smelled the food that Zhongwu in the tent had brought out. However, because the seal was too tight, they kept spinning around anxiously. Zhongyu, A mouse got into a corner of the tent and started gnawing.

His teeth were sharp and he bit easily. He directly bit out a small hole in the corner of the tent. However, the hole was too small and she couldn't get in. So, he started biting crazily again, but just then, His mouth bit the tent tarpaulin again, expanding the scope of the hole.

A sharp bird's beak had pecked on his eye, and one eyeball was blinded. One side of the mouse suddenly turned into darkness, and the other side was firmly pressed to the ground, and it made a painful squeak from its mouth. The squeaking sound suddenly woke up Tieniu from his sleep.

Tieniu held a flashlight and shone the flashlight on the macaw. He saw that the little guy's beak was still pecking at the hole in the tarpaulin. Tieniu crawled over and saw a big mouse struggling there. , however, he could not escape the control of the macaw.

Tieniu stepped on the entrance of the hole, and the mouse was trampled to death. The sound of running could be heard from all around. At first glance, Tieniu realized that this was a group of extremely vicious rats. It was really a group of vicious rats. We should thank the little guy for his vigilance and his fighting ability.

After finding a heavy object and pressing it on the bitten hole, Tieniu lay down again. The little guy walked back to Tieniu's head with steps that he would never recognize, and combed Tieniu's head a few times with its mouth. The cow's hair found a suitable and comfortable position and closed her eyes.

Tieniu turned off the flashlight, slowly closed his eyes and checked his surroundings. After seeing that there was no danger, he fell asleep again.

Before dawn the next day, Tieniu had already gotten up and made a soup using the cooked mutton left over from yesterday. He put a pound of noodles into it and the pot of mutton noodles was cooked quickly. Tieniu stirred up Put a few noodles on the leaves next to it, and the little guy pecked at one of the noodles and swallowed it bit by bit.

Tieniu couldn't help but smile. This little guy has a really good appetite. He can eat anything he is given and has no dietary restrictions. He should eat and drink just like humans. He is really a very easy bird to raise.

After dinner, the sky became a little brighter, and Tieniu once again devoted himself to the excavation work. The little guy ran to Tieniu like yesterday. Whenever he saw a small insect in the soil, he opened his mouth and the little bug turned into a Everyone gets something from his delicious meal.

With the experience of Tieniu and the expansion of the working surface, wild ginseng can be dug faster than yesterday. At such a speed, even an old ginseng picker can't give in. He has become a skilled veteran. This is also The main reason why Tieniu learns things quickly.

As he became more proficient, his skills also reached a new level. He could already tell from the leaves of wild ginseng, those that were old and could be harvested, and those that needed to be left and dug out after planting and regeneration. in the soil.

When it was almost noon, Tieniu had dug almost half of the way. He had not expected such a speed, so he became more motivated. However, the little guy on one side had already eaten and was lying on the ground with his legs spread out. He rested comfortably in a pit that he had tailed out.

Tieniu could only get half a hare again, prepare it, bury it in the fire and roast it. At this time, he speeded up the digging work.

When the hare was roasted and the banana leaves were just opened, the little guy smelled the smell and flew over, landed on Tieniu's shoulder, and rubbed against Tieniu's face, sticking and rubbing, like a The coquettish little cat looks extremely cute.

"Okay, I'll give you a piece of thigh." Tieniu said, tearing off a piece of thigh meat and throwing it to the macaw, because Tieniu already knew that this little guy could use his claws and mouth to cooperate, tear apart the meat, and eat the whole piece by himself. A piece of meat can be torn apart faster than he can.

I threw a piece of meat to the little guy, and I also speeded up my eating. The days of being exposed to the sun in the valley were really uncomfortable. Although I made a hat with banana leaves to block the sun, the harsh sunlight was still there. , turned the valley into a big stuffy jar, and it was difficult for people to breathe due to the heat. They had to seize the time to harvest the wild ginseng in the valley.

After lunch, Tieniu is confident that he will work harder. When night falls today, he will be able to harvest the remaining large field of wild ginseng. With motivation and goals, the only thing left is to take practical actions and speed up. Work hard and fast, this is the way to go and now I have the motivation and courage to fight in the hot weather.

The well-fed macaw no longer wanted to move at this time, and crawled into the pit where it came from, closed its eyes, and leisurely enjoyed the sunbath. Only the iron cow was waving hard in the scorching sun. Holding the shovel, he wrapped up the wild ginseng plants and put them into the ring space.

He was so busy that he didn't stand up until the sky got dark. However, the pain in his back made him sit down in the pit and slowly lay down. It took him a long time to feel the pain. He felt much better and more comfortable. The hard work was finally completed. There were still more than a dozen plants left in the surrounding area. He planned to take a break and directly dig violently.

After more than ten minutes, he slowly sat up and felt much better. He took a shovel and came to a wild ginseng on the outside. He knew that this wild ginseng was seventy or eighty years old, but his shovel dug When he went down, he regretted it. After all, this was seventy or eighty years old wild ginseng, and it was considered a rare item.

He carefully re-examined the roots of this wild ginseng. Under the digging of the shovel, a small part of the roots had been cut off, but fortunately not most of them.

After Tieniu dug out all the remaining wild ginseng, there was already a little bit of light. He quickly raised the bonfire, poured water into the iron pot, and just waited for the fire to boil the water before adding some noodles and serving it. Let's make a meal with chili sauce. After all, it's too late and it's too dark to do anything.

The little guy had been sitting in the pit leisurely basking in the sun all afternoon, and he had been hungry for a long time. Now when he saw his friends, he started to get food again, walking around and around the fire, barking from time to time. Several calls were made, but it was not clear whether it was his mother tongue or the call of their parrot.

The water was boiling. Tieniu put the noodles into the water. A piece of dried noodles fell to the ground next to it. The little guy picked it up at once. He grabbed the noodles with his little paws and put them directly into his mouth and started chewing. Get up, this little guy is really cold and carefree, not what a little bird should look like.

Tieniu watched dumbfounded as the little guy finished eating all the raw noodles, and finally remembered that birds are animals that eat raw food, and cooked food is only a small part of their supplement.

One-tenth of a pound of dried noodles was eaten by the little guy. The little guy flew to the tent by himself. When Tieniu returned to the tent, the little guy flew over and landed on his head, hoping to let Tieniu. Fall down and let him use his hair as a bird's nest again.

After a night of silence, Tieniu got up before dawn the next day, packed up all the belongings, and took away the tent. He wanted to take advantage of the cool weather in the morning to hurry up and have something to eat at noon. As long as the food is fine, it doesn’t matter that the little guy hasn’t eaten either.

He took a look at the valley and was really grateful that harvesting so many wild ginseng could be regarded as a gift from nature to him. He had already flown out and quickly ran away with the little guy.

The direction of his movement was the direction of the helicopter. He regretted leaving the helicopter there, but looking back, he couldn't explain to David and his brothers how he came here so quickly if he didn't leave the helicopter behind. The reason is that there are advantages and disadvantages. I just want to travel more roads.
