"You seem to be a very smart person. If you are looking for death, you can't blame others."
Seeing Qin Feng not listening to his greetings, Qian Yi cursed and had no choice but to climb up the mountain by himself. All the dead branches nearby had been collected.
¡°Brother, let¡¯s go to the mountain to collect some firewood!¡±
Yao Er also said a little worriedly. He was very familiar with the situation in the mountains and knew that even if it was not a flower demon, there were often venomous snakes in places where flowers and plants were in full bloom. It would not be a good thing if they were close.
"Brother Yao, it's okay!" Qin Feng smiled and shook his head. As he spoke, he had already walked twenty or thirty meters down and was about to reach the edge of the sea of ??flowers.
"The boy who doesn't know whether to live or die"
Qin Feng¡¯s actions also attracted the attention of Lu Fenglei and others, but they only paid attention and did not care about Qin Feng¡¯s life and death.
"Thisis this really a poppy?" When Qin Feng walked to the edge of the sea of ??flowers, he illuminated it with the simple burning torch in his hand, and his eyes suddenly widened.
When he smelled the floral fragrance before, Qin Feng was just suspicious, but when he came closer, Qin Feng recognized it at a glance. This vast sea of ??flowers was actually filled with poppies.
These poppy flowers are about one meter high, with branches separated and covered with rough hairs, with deeply feathery lobes, lanceolate or strip-lanceolate lobes, and rough hairs on both sides.
Under the illumination of the torch, the originally pink poppy flowers were rendered even more red, and there were many black round fruits growing on the fallen petals.
Since the poppy is an annual herb, after it blooms and bears fruit, if the fruit is not picked, the poppy will wither and fall to the ground, where it will grow again.
This field of poppies is obviously unpicked. Many poppy stalks have withered at the edge of the sea of ??flowers, but the poppies that are still in full bloom occupy the vast majority of the area, so the withered ones look a bit inconspicuous.
¡°Damn it, if Mexican or Mafia drug dealers know about this place, they will risk their lives to come here!¡±
Looking at the dark sea of ??poppy flowers that stretched as far as the eye could see, Qin Feng was really shocked. Even if it is placed in a place like the Golden Triangle, there may not be such a large poppy cultivation base, right?
"Brother He, are there any dry ones? If not, come back!" Yao Er, who was dozens of meters away, was afraid that something might happen to Qin Feng, so his voice spread far in the empty mountain.
"Speak softly, aren't you afraid of attracting wild animals?",
After Master Ning, who was sitting on the side of the campfire, heard Yao Er's words, he lowered his voice and scolded him. Several servants around him glared at Yao Er angrily.
"Master Ning, don't be afraid!"
Yao Er pointed to the man-eating tree and said: "With this tree spirit here, no wild beasts dare to come over. Let's set up camp here, and everything will be fine"
Yao Er has lived in the mountains all his life. He knows that the instinct of wild animals to seek good luck and avoid evil is far stronger than that of humans. There are probably more human bones in the tree spirit forest than wild beasts.
"Brother Yao, it's okay. There are many withered flowers and plants here that can be used as firewood!" Qin Feng's heart moved. He replied loudly, leaned down and hugged some withered grass stalks in his arms, then turned and walked towards the bonfire.
But while walking on the road, Qin Feng picked all the poppy seeds and threw them on the ground.
This kind of seed is the fruit of refining drugs. If the drug dealers from the outside world see Qin Feng treating their treasure like this. I'm afraid I've been driven crazy by anger.
"Well, this is good for firewood!"
Qin Feng walked to the bonfire and threw a large armful of poppy stems in his arms. The bonfire, which had slowed down in burning momentum, suddenly burst into flames several meters high.
"Yeah. Good job."
Qian Yuandan also nodded. The night in the mountains is a bit cold, and the mountain wind makes people feel chilly in their bones. The bonfire can not only drive away wild animals, but also drive away the cold.
When the withered grass burned, the smoke emitted was a bit more than that of the dead branches. However, the smoke was quickly blown away by the biting mountain wind. Only some smoke could be smelled at the tip of the nose, which was completely bearable.
Mr. Ning stood up and pointed at Qin Feng and said, "I see there are a lot of withered flowers over there. You can do this tonight!"
Although he paid Qin Feng and others, Ning Shao felt uncomfortable.
Because the boy named Zhang Hu did not do anything at all, he received a stone of food for free, and Qin Feng only took on the burden and did not let him do more work. Master Ning was absolutely unbalanced.
"Yes, Master Ning, several eldersDon't worry, I won't let this fire go out! "Qin Feng nodded seriously, threw down the straw in his hand, and ran back.
This time Qin Feng brought more straws over, but instead of throwing them into the bonfire, they piled them outside. After running like this for more than ten times, they were already lying on the ground near the downhill. There is a thick layer of dead grass stalks.
Yao Er wanted to help just now, but Qin Feng persuaded him to stop him. Seeing Qin Feng sweating profusely, he couldn't help but said: "Okay, brother He, take a rest. These straws are enough to burn a section." It¡¯s time.¡±
"Okay, Brother Yao, take a look, is this food edible?"
Qin Feng nodded, sat down on the thick straw, and took out a finger-long, white and tender thing from his pocket, which looked a bit like the rhizome of a plant.
"What is this? Why haven't I seen it before?" Yao Er frowned as he took the plant rhizome handed over by Qin Feng.
There are many things in the mountains, such as the yellow spirit mushroom, which can prolong your life if you eat them. However, there are also some highly poisonous plants that can kill you if you are not careful.
"Huzi, have you seen it?" Qin Feng asked loudly.
"Uncle, I haven't seen this thing before!" Zhang Hu came over, held it in his hand and examined it for a long time. He shook his head and said, "It doesn't look like something poisonous. Why don't you try eating it?"
"Bring it to me to see?"
Master Ning walked up to Qin Feng and snatched the stem. Smelling the faint fragrance from the stem, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
"Master Lu, you are well-informed, can you see if this thing is edible?"
Although there is a desire to eat this thing in one bite. However, Master Ning still got Lu Fenglei's side first. As the mayor of the town, the life of the young master is more valuable than Qin Feng and others.
¡°I don¡¯t know you, so it¡¯s better not to eat it!¡±
Lu Fenglei took the stem and looked at it carefully for a while, shook his head and said: "Some things smell very fragrant, but they can kill people. Just like the mushrooms under the tree, the more beautiful they look, the more poisonous they are"
"What Master Lu said is that he was almost deceived by this boy" After hearing Lu Fenglei's words, Master Ning became furious. After grabbing the plant rhizome, he threw it into the bonfire.
"Hey, Master Ning, don't throw it away if you don't want to eat it!" Qin Feng shouted: "We didn't have enough to eat at night, and we still want to fill our stomachs with this thing"
"Eat. Eat you to death!" Master Ning glanced at Qin Feng with contempt and said, "If you are not afraid of death, just eat it. If you die, I will throw you to the tree spirit"
"Our lives are so cheap that even the Lord of Hell will not accept them"
Qin Feng curled his lips and said, "No, I'm going to be very hungry now. Brother Yao, I don't think this thing is poisonous. I'll eat one first"
While Qin Feng was talking, he took out a rhizome from somewhere. He wiped it casually with his hand, stuffed it directly into his mouth, and started chewing with a "click" sound.
"You kid are really not afraid of death, are you?"
Seeing Qin Feng¡¯s actions, Master Ning couldn¡¯t help but be stunned for a moment, then looked at Qin Feng with a look that looked like a dead person, and said: ¡°Look at me, how long can you last?¡±
"Don't curse my cousin" Zhang Hu glared at Master Ning. He said: "There are a lot of things to eat in the mountains, and only those of you who are afraid of death dare not eat them. I dare to eat them"
As if to prove his bravery, Zhang Hu reached out and grabbed the plant roots that Qin Feng had not eaten, stuffed them into his mouth and started chewing. Through the firelight, you could clearly see the white juice flowing from the corners of his mouth.
"Huh? How can you eat randomly?"
Lu Fenglei could care less about Qin Feng's life or death, but he was very nervous about Zhang Hu. Seeing Zhang Hu actually eating the stem, he couldn't help but sway to Zhang Hu's side and grabbed Zhang Hu's wrist.
"It seems like everything is okay?" After checking Zhang Hu's pulse, Lu Fenglei's expression softened a lot, because Zhang Hu's pulse beat strongly and it didn't look like he was poisoned.
¡°Stop eating these things!¡±
Seeing that Zhang Hu was fine, Lu Fenglei walked back to where he was sitting, but his eyes were still fixed on Zhang Hu, for fear of finding signs of poisoning.
"What are you afraid of? I still have some here. Do you want to eat them?"
Qin Feng reached out and took out five or six more white rhizomes from his pocket. He stuffed it into his mouth and said, "This stuff is a bit bitter, but it can fill your stomach. Young Master Qian, do you want some?"
"Don't eat!" Qian Yuandan shook his head. As the saying goes, a soldier cannot stand under a dangerous wall. Qian Yuandan grew up in fine clothes and fine food. How could he eat it?These weed-like things?
Hearing Qian Yuandan¡¯s words, Qian Yi and others, who were initially a little tempted, resisted asking Qin Feng for the plant roots. Although they were servants of the Qian family, they felt that they were more valuable than Qin Feng.
"Forget it if you don't want to eat, brother Yao, do you want to eat?" Qin Feng asked Yao Er beside him.
"forget it!"
Although Yao Er was a little moved, he still held it back. He once saw a mountain deer eat a brightly colored flower and plant. After eating, it only walked two meters before falling to the ground and dying. This shows how toxic the plants in the mountains are. .
"Only when you are full can you have the strength to work!" Qin Feng did not force Yao Er. After eating the few roots in his hand, he staggered back to hug the dead grass.
However, this time Qin Feng brought withered poppies, but he did not pick off the fruits that formed after the flowers faded. There was a strawberry-sized poppy fruit on almost every poppy stem.
They are all withered poppy stalks. Even in broad daylight, let alone at night, Lu Fenglei and others sitting on the other side of the bonfire cannot distinguish this subtle difference¡ª¡ª
