Zhao Lan almost didn't fall out after hearing it, "What are you talking about? Eat a snake? Can this snake be eaten? Isn't this a poisonous snake?"
Bai Zhi smiled and pulled Zhao Lan back to the shade of the tree: "This is a poisonous snake, but its meat is not poisonous at all. On the contrary, it is delicious and delicious. If you don't believe it, you will know it after a taste."
Zhao Lan was dubious. Although she was scared, she could see that her daughter was so sure that she couldn't pour cold water anymore, so she obediently cleaned up the snake with her dagger and took out a bamboo tube from the basket like a trick. Water, let her take a sip first, and then rinse the snake meat with the remaining water.
Bai Zhi hung the cleaned up snakes on the branches, then picked up some hay branches nearby, set a fire, cut the snakes into four sections, and skewered them on the branches for roasting.
Snake meat, like fish meat, is a meat that is easy to cook. After a while, there will be a tempting fragrance wafting out, causing both Huber and Hu Feng to stop their work and move forward to take a look.
"This is snake meat?" Hu Feng asked in surprise, pointing to the snake meat that was still roasting on the fire.
Bai Zhi nodded: "Well, this snake meat is tender and nutritious. It is delicious and healthy. You can taste it." She took out the largest of the four snake meat and handed it to Bo Huber.
The closer this roasted snake meat gets closer, the more enticing scent becomes stronger. Uncle Hub is already hungry. With this smell, no one can say anything to refuse.
He put down the farm tools in his hand, patted the dust in the palm of his hand, and happily accepted the snake meat from Bai Zhi, and couldn't wait to take a bite. Although he didn't add any seasonings, he didn't even put salt in it, but the taste, It's really indescribable.
"How is it?" Bai Zhi asked Uncle Huber.
Huber's mouth was not free, and he took another bite of snake meat into his mouth, only extended his thumb, and said something vaguely delicious.
Bai Zhi took two more skewers of grilled snake meat and handed them to Hu Feng and Zhao Lan respectively, leaving herself the smallest string of snake tails.
Zhao Lan saw that her daughter’s string was too small, but wanted to change it with her. Bai Zhi refused to say anything and smiled: "Mother, I am not hungry at all. This string is enough. Besides, Hu Feng and I ate at the foot of the mountain. Two snowdrops, I'm not hungry yet."
Zhao Lan didn't believe it: "What nonsense are you talking about? Where can there be snowdrops in places like ours? Isn't that kind of thing only found in the snowy areas of the Tianshan Mountains?"
Bai Zhi said: "This Yacon is not the other Saussurea. You can eat roasted snake first. You will know what Yacon is in a while."
Seeing her daughter's persistence like this, Zhao Lan felt warm and her daughter seemed to be more considerate and sensible than before.
A large string of snake meat was eaten by Uncle Huber. Obviously he was still inexplicable. He sighed: "I knew that snake meat was edible and it was so delicious. I have killed a lot of snakes in the fields over the years. It's a pity, I just threw it away afterwards."
Bai Zhi smiled and said: "If you like to eat, let Hu Feng catch it for you, he is amazing. This snake is like a flies and mosquitoes in front of him. It is vulnerable to a blow."
Hearing her exaggerated words, Bo Hu and Zhao Lan laughed from ear to ear, and even Hu Feng, who had always been unsmiling, couldn't help but put a rather obvious smile on the corner of his mouth.
After Bai Zhi finished eating the snake tail in her hand, she took out two bamboo tubes from the basket, both of which were filled with cool stream water.
"We brought this from the foot of Luoying Mountain, you two drink a can, my mother and I drink a can."
