Chapter 83 Did you find that person?

After resting yesterday afternoon, Ye Jinmo got up early.

Today is the first day of the camping activity, and she wants to get off to a good start.

Stepping on the morning dew, she put on her outdoor gear and went into the woods.

When she was picking mushrooms yesterday, she discovered that there were many Chinese herbal plants nearby.

She had already made a list of herbs before coming to camp, and now she just needed to collect the ingredients and prepare them into sachets.

Coincidentally, she discovered that there was basil nearby!

This is good stuff. Perilla leaves can relieve exterior symptoms and dispel cold, promote qi and soothe the stomach. Not only can they be used to cook porridge, but they can also be used as edible spices!

She picked a handful of leaves and boiled them in hot water. Eating some basil leaves early in the morning can warm the body!

Tan Qinghuan was not idle either. He got up early in the morning to deal with the scorpions.

She brought cooking oil from home and was frying it on low heat.

The fragrance spread for two miles!

Ye Jinmo smelled the fragrance as soon as she stepped into the camp.

It's still early and most of the students are not awake yet.

She washed the perilla leaves, chopped them up and stewed them in the pot.

An aroma mixed with a slight spicy taste emanates from the air.

Drain the water and sprinkle it on the fried scorpions.

As soon as a few students got up, they smelled the fragrance and became extremely greedy.

“Wow, it smells so good!”

"What delicious food are you making? Can I have a taste?"

Several people had already come over, but when they saw the food frying in the pot, their faces changed immediately and they took three steps back.

"I'm so scared. How can anyone dare to eat fried scorpions?"

"I don't dare to eat it, but it smells so good..."

Ye Jinmo smiled and reached out to pick up a golden scorpion in the bowl, which was stained with a few perilla leaves. She took a bite and the fresh fragrance filled the air immediately.

At this time, a classmate from Shandong Province came over. He was fat and tall like a hill, with a shaved head, a round, rosy face, bright eyes, and he rubbed his hands, eager to try.

"This is a specialty of our Lu Province. I didn't expect you guys could actually make it!"

As he spoke, the man grabbed a few and stuffed them into his mouth. In an instant, he squinted his eyes because of the delicious taste.

"How does it taste?" Tan Qinghuan was also happy.

"Not bad, not bad! Where does this spicy taste come from? It's very strange, and it's different from the usual chili peppers!"

Ye Jinmo explained: "The spicy taste of perilla leaves is fragrant and a little spicy. Eating it can warm the body."

The student from Shandong nodded, gave a thumbs up, and chewed it with a slurp: "After I go home during the winter vacation this year, I will ask my family to try it too."

As he spoke, he glanced at the people around him and wondered, "Don't you guys want to eat them? They're very expensive in our place, eight dollars a piece. Wild scorpions are not enough to eat. There are many big scorpion farmers in our area who make a lot of money and buy houses and cars."

After he said that, the others also showed an expression of wanting to try it.

The brave ones picked one up directly and put it carefully into their mouths. Their eyes lit up instantly and they nodded wildly!

Ye Jinmo smiled: "Everyone, don't worry about eating it. Sister Qinghuan removed the tip of the tail early in the morning. This scorpion is not poisonous."

She glanced at the crowd and saw a person outside the crowd whose face changed slightly and he turned and left.

She smiled meaningfully. It seemed that the culprit behind this murder would be found soon!

She has always been reluctant to make enemies with others. As long as it is not too excessive, she will not care. But what happened last night was really too much!

When she woke up in the middle of the night, she heard Sister Qinghuan talking in her sleep, muttering about scorpions.

She thought about it carefully and realized that the only people she had a grudge against were those few people.

When the last pot of fried scorpions came out of the pot, she kept some on purpose, and the rest had already been divided up by other students.

Tan Qinghuan cleaned up the stove and turned around to see Ye Jinmo finding four small plates and dividing the scorpions into four portions.

"Jinmo, have you found that person?"

Ye Jinmo smiled mysteriously: "I just saw a strange man in the crowd. I asked my classmates from Lu Province and found out which tent he lives in. There are only four people who haven't eaten the scorpion yet. I'll deliver it to them one by one."

Tan Qinghuan was about to ask which four people they were, but then he thought again and realized the matter was clear.

Meng Shanshan, Ye Shuran, Zhou Yue, and that boy.

"I'll go first." Ye Jinmo went out with the lunch box.

She planned to go to Zhou Yue first.

She didn't think Zhou Yue was involved in this matter. After all, he was scared to death by the snake yesterday.

Sure enough, as soon as she reached the door of the tent, Zhou Yue, who was putting on makeup, screamed.

"Get out!"

Ye Jinmo raised the scorpion in her hand, put one down for her, and said with a smile, "I saw that you didn't come to eat just now, so I brought this to you specially."

Zhou Yue jumped three feet away, pointing at the plate with shaking fingers: "Ye Jinmo, I apologize to you. It was wrong of me to rob your tent yesterday, but you can't be so vicious. Why did you scare me with a scorpion? I won't eat it, take it away quickly!"

This reaction was expected.

Without waiting for her to take it away, Zhou Yue picked up the flashlight on the table, swung it, turned it into a long stick, and poked the plate.

With a clang, the scorpion fell to the ground.

Zhou Yue screamed: "Ye Jinmo, you are sincere, if you dare to scare me, I will not let you go!"

Ye Jinmo pursed her lips and stepped back to go out.

"Stop and take these things away! Otherwise..."

She looked at Zhou Yue, still with an arrogant look on her face, but now she was a little embarrassed by the fear.

Seeing that she didn't move, Zhou Yue burst into tears and choked, "I'll never go against you again, okay? Please, take this thing away... wuwuwu..."

Ye Jinmo confirmed his guess, picked up the scorpion on the ground, turned around and left.

She then went directly to the boy's tent.

Coincidentally, this person happened to live with his classmates from Shandong Province.

Seeing her coming, the students from Shandong Province warmly welcomed her: "Come in! I didn't expect you would leave some special things for me!"

He was about to reach out to take it, but Ye Jinmo dodged and smiled, raising her eyebrows: "This is not for you. I saw that this classmate didn't get to eat it just now, so I sent it here specially!"

As she said this, she put the plate on the table.

A boy was reading a book. His blue shirt had turned pale from being washed, and the collar was torn. If she hadn't seen the cold sweat on his forehead, she would have thought he was really concentrating on reading.

The student from Shandong province was generous and put his hand on the boy's shoulder: "Zhang Wo, you and I are from the same hometown. I believe you also like to eat fried scorpions, right? Classmate Ye Jinmo has sent it over. Try it. It's delicious!"

"No!" Zhang Wo refused almost immediately, then felt that he had lost his composure and pulled out an extremely ugly smile, "Student Qian Tengyue, my throat is uncomfortable today, so I won't eat these."

Qian Tengyue puffed his cheeks and said, "Your throat hurts? You got up early in the morning and ate spicy noodles!"

Ye Jinmo naturally saw the clue: "Student Zhang is afraid and dare not eat?"

"What am I afraid of!" Zhang Wo's face suddenly turned red. He stood up suddenly, his eyes were a little evasive, and he said with a reproachful tone: "You girls are really weird. You are not afraid of this thing, but you want to eat it instead!"

The hand holding the pen couldn't stop shaking, and he didn't dare look at the disc.

Qian Tengyue was puzzled by this, and his chubby face was full of confusion: "Zhang Wo, didn't you go out and catch a lot of scorpions last night? I thought you were going to fry them and eat them! Come to think of it, where did you go with all those scorpions? You're not going to hide them secretly and eat them all by yourself, are you?"
