It was still the same as last time. Song Yun and Gu Laotou focused on collecting herbs, while Song Ziyi specialized in collecting wild vegetables and looking for rabbit holes and pheasant nests.
Not only do plants grow rapidly in spring, but pheasants and rabbits also lay the most eggs during this time of year.
Song Ziyi was lucky today. When the bamboo basket was half filled with wild vegetables, he found a rabbit hole. Song Yun and the old man came to help block the hole and smoked it. The rabbits started to run to the various hole entrances. With the help of Song Ziyi and Song Yun's stone-throwing skills, they easily caught a bunch of rabbits, eight fat rabbits, but the little rabbit didn't want them.
We also found two pheasant nests and got two nests of pheasant eggs, thirteen in total, and caught two pheasants lying in the nests.
Song Ziyi had a lot of fun and did not miss picking wild vegetables. From time to time, he could also help Song Yun and Gu Laotou dig herbs.
They had a great catch today, and their backpacks and sacks were full, so they didn't go to the mountain stream to fish, as it would be difficult to carry too much.
On the way back, Song Yun glanced at the pheasants hanging on Song Ziyi's bamboo basket and thought of a delicious dish. "How about we have coconut chicken tonight?"
"What's coconut chicken? Chicken cooked in coconut?"
"Yes, we cook chicken with coconut milk and coconut pulp. I see these two pheasants aren't very big, so they're probably not very old. Their meat must be tender, perfect for making coconut chicken."
Ziyi loves drinking coconut juice the most. When he heard that you can use it to cook chicken, his mouth started watering. He nodded frantically, "Okay, okay, let's have coconut chicken tonight."
When they walked out of the deep forest and reached the outskirts, they met some people picking wild vegetables. Some of them stretched their necks to see what Song Yun and the others had harvested.
Song Yun didn't hide it either, and let them see it openly. Anyway, the rabbits and pheasants had been hidden under the backpacks and sacks, so they could only see wild vegetables and herbs.
Most of the people picking wild vegetables in these mountains are nearby villagers. If they only pick wild vegetables and herbs, they won't say anything, as they are everywhere. But if they catch prey, that's a different story. They'll claim that the mountains belong to their village and that the prey must be handed over for distribution. Outsiders like them probably won't get a single bite of meat, a lesson learned from Qinghe Village.
The three of them followed the gazes of the people around them and came to the foot of the mountain.
From a distance, I saw three young boys squatting on the roadside not far ahead. One of them was very tall even when he was squatting, and the other two were shorter and very thin.
Song Yun recognized these three people almost at a glance, even though they had their faces covered when they met last time.
When they saw Song Yun and the others, the three people who were originally squatting lazily on the roadside immediately stood up, standing very still like primary school students being punished.
The old man rolled his eyes and said, "Why aren't these guys covering their faces anymore? What are they doing?"
Song Ziyi blinked and whispered, "You're not planning to rob me again, are you?"
The old man said, "Do you think we are stupid? What's the difference between robbing us and seeking death? It's definitely not."
With girl Yun around, no one can rob them. Even if a bandit comes, he will be defeated by girl Yun.
Song Yun walked in front, and when she got closer, she took the initiative to greet the three young men, "Are you waiting for us?"
