Previous page Return to Catalog Next page
- Hey, Uncle Liu, what do you think this is? Is it a mushroom? It's very bright. As I walked, I paid attention to the grass poles around me. From time to time, I could find traces of cicada shells on them.
She was picking a cicada shell off a pole grass leaf when she suddenly discovered a dark green thing like a small straw hat growing on the ground, with a lot of net-like snakeskin on its neck.
"What's wrong?" Liu Junhao thought he had discovered something good. Who knew that he came over to take a look and said with a smile, "This is called a little snake flower. It's nothing interesting."
This thing is not very rare in Liujiagou. It can be seen in some humid places almost every year, and it only appears in a small area.
According to the older generation in the village, snakes lay their eggs in the soil. After a while, the eggs will hatch and then slowly grow small snakes. This kind of dark green straw hat has small snakes. The snake crawled out.
Liu Junhao also felt very scared after hearing this when he was a child. He vaguely felt that there was a small snake crawling around this thing. In order to prevent the little snake flower from growing into snakes, he would strike first every time he saw one. Use a small wooden stick to dig out the little snake flowers from the soil and crush them to pieces.
But it seems like this thing can¡¯t be dug no matter how hard it is dug. Every time it digs out everything on the ground, it grows back in two days.
Later, he got angry and dug all the way down the root of the thing. He saw many snake eggs that looked like small eggs. They were soft to the touch. After using a wooden stick to open the snake eggs, they found that they were all crystal clear inside. The gelatin has no small snakes at all.
It was only then that he realized that the story was a lie. But later I got used to it, and when I saw the little snake flower, I couldn't help but dig it out with a stick.
¡°It¡¯s so beautiful, I¡¯ll pick two.¡± Tongtong was very interested in this thing and carefully squatted on the ground and pulled out two plants and held them in her hands.
Although the sun has become fierce at this time. But the woods are full of green trees. Therefore, the three of them did not feel hot.
Walk all the way. The chickens and ducks kept squawking and surrounding them. They were all beaten away by Liu Junhao with bamboo poles.
But Xiao Haoyu was in high spirits. From time to time he would take out cicadas and tease them. Hang them far back.
It is said that this forest has almost become a breeding ground for him and Professor Zhao. Those chickens and ducks usually jump here when they have nothing to do. Catch a grasshopper. Catch a cicada somewhere.
There are only a few steps. The little rabbits also jumped out. Running around a few people like they were having fun. Even Tongtong reached out to hug them and didn't avoid them.
It took an hour to wander around this forest. Fifty or sixty cicadas were also caught in the iron bucket. This is not to mention the place where chickens and ducks were fed just now.
"Grandpa, look at how many cicadas Uncle Liu has caught for us!" From afar, Xiao Haoyu ran forward with an iron bucket to claim credit.
"You guys are just messing around. Uncle Liu still has business to do." Although Professor Zhao scolded him, he still had a kind face.
"What nonsense," Tongtong said angrily, "We caught cicadas and fed them to the chicks to make them grow faster and lay lots and lots of eggs."
"Okay, what you said makes sense" Professor Zhao saw what she was holding and couldn't help but asked, "Tongtong, where did you find this thing? Let grandpa take a look."
"I just saw it in the woods. There are a lot of them there. Uncle Liu said they are called small snake flowers." He handed them over like a treasure.
"A lot?" He looked at it carefully, as if he had seen some rare treasure.
"Don't taste it, this thing is not a mushroom, it's poisonous." Liu Junhao saw him reaching out and tearing off a small piece and about to put it in his mouth to taste, he was startled and hurriedly stopped him.
"This thing is really poisonous, shouldn't it?" Professor Zhao looked at it again and looked at him very confused.
"WellI also heard from the villagers that no one has tasted this stuff at all" Liu Junhao explained.
¡°Have you ever heard of anyone who was poisoned by food?¡± Professor Zhao asked.
"There is no such thing"
Khan, what are you talking about? Who would pick a few and taste them even though they know they are poisonous? Isn¡¯t that a mental illness?
"Do you know its scientific name?" Professor Zhao spread the thing out in his hand again.
¡°I don¡¯t know, I only know that the local name is Little Snake Flower,¡± he really didn¡¯t know this.
"Let me tell you, this thing is called bamboo, which is known as the 'Flower of Mountain Treasures' and the 'Queen of Fungi'. It is very nutritious and delicious. It has been listed as one of the "Eight Treasures of Grass" since ancient times and is a royal treasure. Tributes are indispensable treasures even in today's state banquets. You know the price of wild embroidery, it is equivalent to gold. "
After listening to Professor Zhao¡¯s words, Liu Junhao was almost stunned.
Is this thing so valuable? Equal to gold!
"Take me to see it quickly, and I will identify it carefully." Professor Zhao has eaten artificially cultivated bamboo several times, and it was all given to him by his students.
At that time, he didn¡¯t know what it was. After listening to the student¡¯s explanation, he checked a lot of information to figure out the origin of the bamboo field. This is the first time I have seen this wild one. According to the book, it is a cryptofungus that lives on the roots of dead bamboos and usually grows in bamboo forests.
But these bamboos
Found it in the woods, so he was a little unsure.
"I'll take you there, I'll take you there" Tongtong immediately took his hand and rushed forward.
Equivalent to gold, equivalent to gold! Liu Junhao still hasn't come to his senses yet.
"If this little snake flower is really embroidered, then I have blind eyes and cannot recognize gold and jade." He had dug this thing a lot when he was a child. According to Professor Zhao, he was just playing with the gold.
¡°I remember clearly where the snake flower was, and led everyone to their destination without any effort.
The grown embroidery has a dark green cap on its head, and the snow-white stipe is covered with a layer of snakeskin-like mesh, which looks very beautiful.
There are many caps on the ground that have cracked out of the soil and turn pink under the sunlight.
"It should be embroidered fish. Good guy, this is wild. Come and pick it quickly. I'll make you a crispy embroidered fish to eat at noon." Professor Zhao checked it over and over again and finally nodded in affirmation.
So a large group of people began to squat on the ground and get busy. There seemed to be a lot of bamboo, but there was not much when it was time to dig it out, especially since Professor Zhao repeatedly asked not to touch the newly unearthed bamboo.
"Weigh how much it weighs." After everyone cleared out the forest, Professor Zhao asked him to weigh it with his hands.
"Six or seven taels" Liu Junhao's hand feeling is getting stronger with practice. When weighing small items, the error is very small.
"I'm afraid it will weigh half a catty after drying. One catty of bamboo is worth one tael of gold. This half a catty is worth more than a thousand dollars. Should we eat it or sell it?" Professor Zhao is a little reluctant to give up now.
"Let's eat it." Liu Junhao became interested and wanted to taste what this legendary royal tribute tasted like. I can brag about it when I see Pang Xu next time. I have eaten royal tribute.
Although Professor Zhao was 90% sure that this was bamboo, after returning home, he immediately called an old classmate of his who studied fungi to inquire, and finally took a few photos and uploaded them online.
The classmate quickly called and confirmed that it was wild bamboo. It turned out that this thing not only grows in the embroidery forest, but may also grow on other plants. It is just that it is relatively rare due to environmental restrictions. The recently developed corn intercropping three-dimensional cultivation technology is to sow corn and corn at the same time, and use corn stalks to shade and moisturize bamboo eggs.
This can be regarded as a dual-use land. Bamboo culture material can improve the soil and thereby increase crop production.
In the end, the old classmate kept yelling not to eat it, and he wanted to pay to buy it back for research.
"You are doing some research, don't think I don't know that you want to buy it back to eat." Professor Zhao knew what his classmate had planned.
Teacher Wang has made dishes with bamboo several times, so he is quite familiar with it. She soaked the embroidery in water, washed it, cut it into small pieces and continued rinsing. Then she put the large grass carp that Liu Junhao had chosen into a pile in half, and chopped the clean fish meat into pieces like dumpling fillings.
Sprinkle salt and seasonings and stir evenly, put the minced fish meat into the bamboo, and dip it in egg liquid, sesame seeds, etc.
When everything is ready, put the bamboo fish into the oil pan and fry until golden brown.
When the crispy bamboo fish was ready, Teacher Wang specially asked Liu Junhao to call Zhang Qian and bring her over to try it.
This dish tastes delicious, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a rich aroma in your mouth.
Liu Junhao chewed slowly while calculating in his mind how many grams of gold he could eat in one bite.
After eating, he went into the house to check what the bamboo was. After checking, he was really a little ignorant. There was information about bamboo everywhere on the Internet.
Khan, for so many years, the villagers have been begging for food from their golden rice bowls. Who is the one who spread the rumor that this little snake flower is poisonous!
After checking the information, he thought about planting some bamboo in his yard.
This thing tastes really delicious and is rich in nutrients. If you can grow some, it will be convenient for you to eat in the future. Thinking of this, he began to look up bamboo planting techniques on the Internet.
It seems that there is no complicated technology, just get some strains of bacteria.
He did what he said and immediately ran outside to talk to her.Discuss with others.
Professor Zhao also wanted to do research, so he naturally nodded in agreement, so the two of them went to the woods with shovels to dig up buds and hyphae.
They didn¡¯t have time to make the culture material according to the steps mentioned on the Internet. Instead, they directly dug up the soil with a shovel and prepared to transplant it back.
According to the saying on the Internet, this embroidery is easier to grow in the embroidery forest. Professor Zhao directly planted them in his own bamboo forest, and then covered the edges with thorns to prevent other livestock from trampling on them.
Liu Junhao buried a lot of embroidered leaves in the plot. Of course, he also secretly put a lot of embroidered leaves into the stone locks, preparing to do a comparative test later.
My spring water may also be effective on fungi. Once the seeds are planted, I will send a pound or two to Zhang Qian¡¯s parents.
Embroidery is as good as gold, and it is absolutely classy to use it as a gift.
It has just been planted, and he is already looking forward to the future.
