Zhou Zhou Lang hoeed off the thorn branches with his back to her, then carefully pulled them out and threw them aside before he went to hoe the roots of the thorns.
He didn't pick up the thorns either, so he cut them off and pulled them aside to make it easier for people to get in and out.
Man Bao took the opportunity to stuff the plants in his hand to Ke Ke, then yawned and looked around.
There are many small animals in the mountains. She also saw a beautiful pheasant fluttering its wings and landed not far away. After noticing her gaze, it cooed and flew up the tree with fluttering wings. The pheasant disappeared immediately. shadowed.
Zhou Zhoulang looked back, and also took a look at the disappearing pheasant, and said: "Don't think about it, no one in our village can hunt pheasants except Brother Zhou Hu."
"Didn't the third brother hit him before?"
"That's a blind cat meeting a dead mouse," Zhou Zhou said while working hard, "At that time, the eldest brother was going to catch a pheasant, so he jumped on it. As soon as the pheasant flew, it flew directly over our heads. I gave it a stick, swept its wings, and then it landed in front of the third brother, and the third brother trampled it to death as soon as he lifted his foot."
Man Bao: ...
"Look, apart from that time, when else was our family able to hunt pheasants?"
Man Bao sighed, "It seems that our family has nothing to do with pheasants."
That's not true. When he was younger, he was still very destined, but it was my uncle who was destined.
But Zhou Zhoulang was also a little proud, he said with a smile: "But our family has a predestined relationship with bird eggs."
Zhou Zhoulang is a master at climbing trees to dig out bird nests, and he is well-known as the bird king in the village.
Zhou Zhou Lang came out of the way, clapped his hands and said in relief: "Okay, let's see, where is Poria?"
The three pine trees are not small, so that there is a relatively spacious open space around them, and there is only one pine tree about ten steps apart.
Manbao is small, and he burrows into it as soon as he gets up from the ground.
Zhou Zhoulang followed her behind. As for where the weeds and vines in her hand went, is there anything else to say? It must have been thrown away.
Man Bao went in and began to look for Poria cocos by picking fallen leaves under the pine tree roots.
The fallen leaves here are thicker than other places, maybe because there are thorns blocking it, or it may be because the fallen leaves of those thorns are mixed together.
Because of Keke's scan in front, Man Bao almost found out.
This time the exposed Poria cocos was not too small, Zhou Zhoulang was very happy to see it, squatted down and picked up the fallen leaves, and moved to the side, and found that it had circled half of the pine tree.
Zhou Zhoulang was very happy, he laughed and said: "If the old Jia's family knows that we found so many Poria cocos from the mountains, they will be so angry that their intestines will turn green, and they may die of anger, hahahahaha..."
Man Bao looked around nervously, and whispered: "Fourth brother, keep your voice down, don't invite anyone."
"Now everyone is eating dinner at home, who will come?"
"No, at this time, everyone has already finished their dinner, so everyone should come out to work again, right?"
Only then did Zhou Zhoulang look up at the sky, he came to his senses and said, "It's over, it's getting dark, let's hurry up."
Zhou Zhoulang reached out to grab the hoe not far behind him, but his hand seemed to be pressing on something. He felt that the touch was a bit familiar, and he looked away, and couldn't help being silent for a while.
Man Bao also saw it, and didn't bother to stand up, so he simply crawled over, and the two of them pushed aside the fallen leaves, until they got to another pine tree, and sure enough, they found another piece of Poria cocos there.
Zhou Zhoulang turned his head to look at the last pine tree, and climbed over to find it.
After a while, he pushed aside a fallen leaf and showed Man Bao his results.
Man Bao's eyes sparkled, "Keke, you didn't say there were so many."
Keke: "The host will always find out."
Koko paused and said, "Host, collect more of this piece of soil."
Man Bao said no problem, and then looked at Zhou Zhou Lang.
Zhou Zhou Lang was covering his mouth with his dirty hands, laughing silently, with tears streaming from the corners of his eyes.
Man Bao was silent for a while, then climbed up and wiped his tears with her dirty little hands, and comforted him: "Fourth brother, don't be too happy, we are taking revenge."
Zhou Zhoulang shook his shoulders, having laughed enough, he let out a long breath, wiped his tears from laughing, and said, "It's because I'm taking revenge that I'm so happy."
Seeing this piece of Poria cocos, Zhou Zhoulang rolled up his sleeves ambitiously and said, "I'm going to dig them all up, Man Bao, you go out and wait for fourth brother."
Man Bao said no problem, climbed out, but not far away, just beside a pine tree.
Zhou Zhou Lang felt that his butt and waist didn't hurt anymore, so he spat a couple of times and swung his hoe to dig down. Halfway through the swing, he realized something was wrong, so he took a little bit of strength and started digging down.
Sure enough, this piece of poria cocos was different from the ones they dug before. It grew very shallow. He just dug down and found a piece. After about three feet down, he could see the bottom where it was entangled with the roots of the pine tree. .
Zhou Zhoulang was very happy, and he dug up with a hoe.
Man Bao looked at it and felt that it was a lot of effort, so he simply ordered outside.
Zhou Zhoulang also listened to her, and he dug as she asked, and he dug out a piece in a short while.
Man Bao crawled in, and carefully pulled out the loose poria cocos with his hands, collecting a little soil along the way.
It was almost dark when they dug up everything and put it in the pannier.
Zhou Zhoulang was a little sloppy when filling back the soil, buried all the soil back, and did not cover it with dead leaves or the like.
He looked at the sky and knew that his family members were probably going to be in a hurry, so he didn't care about being tired, so he quickly picked up his back basket, picked up his hoe, took Man Bao and went down the mountain.
Fortunately, they did not walk in depth, but walked sideways, and soon reached the bottom of the mountain.
Just walked back to the intersection where they entered the mountain along the foot of the mountain, and saw Zhou Dalang leading three younger brothers coming over aggressively with hoes on their shoulders, saw the dirty Zhou Zhoulang leading the dirty Man Bao, and the brothers who came running A meal for four.
Zhou Dalang frowned and asked, "Did you meet the Jia brothers?"
This body seems to be made by playing with mud, not like fighting.
Zhou Zhoulang immediately said: "No, I'm not stupid, I brought Man Bao, we're on this side, we didn't go that way."
Zhou Dalang's expressions looked better now, and he asked, "Why is it so late, and you have Manbao with you, what if you scare the child?"
Generally, when it gets dark, the village is not willing to let the children run outside. What if they are scared or bumped into by some ghost
So the children usually go home before dark.
Zhou Zhou Lang motioned for them to look at the basket, and smiled, "Brother, you must not have imagined how many good things we found."
Zhou Yilang had already gone up to look, lifted the top layer of leaves and looked in, his eyes flickered slightly.
He glanced at Zhou Zhou Lang approvingly, "Good job."
