Today, we're going to talk about the different types of mushrooms.
Qi Xili smiled and said, "Actually, it's about teaching you how to distinguish between poisonous and non-poisonous animals in the wild, so that you won't be at a loss when faced with a food shortage."
As Qi Xili spoke, he displayed the presentation slides he had prepared. They included not only photos of various edible wild mushrooms, but also photos of similar, poisonous mushrooms.
Qi Xili carefully explained the differences between similar mushrooms, and then told everyone what to do if they accidentally ate a poisonous mushroom, and which nearby plants could temporarily detoxify them.
Everyone here knows how valuable today's lesson is, because they often face this dilemma when they go to the mountains to pick wild mushrooms in the spring.
Ultimately, due to my limited knowledge, I could only pick the most common mushrooms that I could be sure were edible, leaving many wild mushrooms of uncertain toxicity to rot in the ground.
Although they weren't sure if the ones they hadn't picked were poisonous, not picking them was a loss, and the thought of it pained them.
Qi Xili was speaking energetically, but the people in the audience had limited abilities; although they listened attentively, they could not remember much.
They were all sweating profusely with anxiety.
Qi Xili noticed everyone's embarrassment, stopped lecturing, and said, "Don't worry if you didn't remember it. After class, I will send the course materials to your email addresses. You can take a look at them when you have time, and you will be able to remember them."
When he first encountered these things, he was just as flustered as they were. It took him a lot of private effort to learn how to identify these more than one hundred kinds of wild mushrooms.
Although Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan also felt overwhelmed, they still tried their best to remember. They didn't aim to remember everything; they just wanted to remember as much as they could.
After quickly recounting the thirty types of wild mushrooms, Qi Xili gestured for the young soldier to bring him the "teaching aids" he had prepared.
In fact, it's dried mushrooms from these thirty kinds of wild mushrooms.
Moreover, there are not just thirty kinds in the box; if you count carefully, there should be one hundred and thirty-five kinds.
Besides the edible ones, the rest are the poisonous mushrooms that we talked about in class, which are similar to edible mushrooms.
Faced with this pile of dried mushrooms that looked almost identical, everyone was stunned and didn't understand what Qi Xili meant.
He smiled and said, "Although everyone knows what fresh mushrooms look like and how they grow, I think we should extend that knowledge to learn about how they dry. That way, if you find a bag of dried mushrooms, you can quickly tell whether they are edible."
Of course, this is supplementary content; whether you can master it or not is not required.
He knew that dried mushrooms were really hard to distinguish, but learning how to do it would definitely be beneficial.
Qi Xili first presented the dried mushrooms to Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan, letting them identify them.
After correcting the mistakes and explaining the correct identification method, he took the dried mushrooms to the guards in the back row and had everyone gather around to identify them again. He also explained it again.
He did this not only to reassure everyone, but also to specifically take care of Bi Qiaoan.
Otherwise, if a bunch of people gather around, it's hard to say whether they might accidentally pop one of the boils and spill pus on her.
Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan were grateful, but since they were in class, they could only smile and nod to express their thanks.
The class ended quickly. Neither the couple regretted coming to the class today, because they had gained so much.
Although the mushroom bags in the space were all edible fungi purchased from Nanshi, when asked to identify them, the two of them actually couldn't name them very well.
Not to mention the common and uncommon mushrooms in the wild.
Moreover, Qi Xili's thoughtfulness reassured Shen Yanming about Qiao An's safety during class, which was a key factor in his decision not to object to her coming to join in the fun.
After class, although Qi Xili called for the get out of class to end, no one was in a hurry to leave. From a distance, they asked Shen Yanming, "You two came to listen to the class, aren't you afraid that the child will wake up and cry?"
The couple exchanged a glance, thinking to themselves, "Sure enough, everyone here is a gossip."
So, she showed everyone the video she had prepared beforehand: "We installed surveillance cameras at home, and Joanne will come home as soon as the baby wakes up. That's why we're sitting in the front row."
After hearing this, everyone just said "Oh~~~".
However, everyone was completely charmed by the two little babies' adorable appearance.
Some of them couldn't control their claws and tried to snatch Shen Yanming's phone.
Old Shen, ever quick-witted, changed the subject: "Let's go, it's time to report to the playground. My wife and I need to go home and check on things before we feel at ease."
Seeing this, everyone could only express their regret, then smile and leave.
As he left, he casually reminded Shen Yanming, "Hurry up, or Old Li will lose his temper."
Shen Yanming nodded, indicating that he understood.
After everyone left, Qi Xili said to the couple, "How was it? Could you keep up?"
Although he was speaking to the couple, his eyes were fixed on Bi Qiaoan.
Bi Qiaoan smiled and said, "Sure, but you shared a lot of valuable information, so I'll probably need to take notes of it in private and then put it into practice."
Qi Xili nodded: "You must remember it accurately, you can't be half-baked. When we have time, I'll take you to the mountains for practice."
After saying that, he realized it wasn't appropriate. He gave an awkward laugh before saying, "Let's wait until impetigo is curable before we talk about it."
Bi Qiaoan smiled and nodded: "That day will come, I look forward to it!"
Qi Xili waved his hand: "Alright, you two should go now. By the way, if possible, Qiao An should also practice her skills."
“Yes, I know!” Bi Qiaoan said.
Shen Yanming nodded in agreement: "She's going to report to Captain Li today."
Qi Xili was somewhat surprised, yet felt it made sense. He nodded: "Yes, that's good. But don't be too aggressive, just proceed step by step."
The couple thanked Qi Xili and then left.
On the way, Bi Qiaoan followed Shen Yanming toward the dormitory and asked in a low voice, "Are you really going home? I thought you were just saying that."
Shen Yanming smiled and squeezed her hand: "Of course, if you say you'll do it, you have to do it. Besides, I won't feel at ease if I don't check on the two darlings."
Bi Qiaoan whispered in his ear, "It's okay, they're both fine and sleeping soundly."
Although Shen Yanming knew that what his wife said was true, he still shook his head: "Let's go back and take a look. Just pretend it's for others to see."
Seeing this, Bi Qiaoan didn't stop her. However, she still complained, "How about we let one of our bicycles or electric scooters out sometime? That way we can save some time."
Although it's only a few minutes' walk, it would take at least fifteen minutes to go back and forth twice.
They were given half an hour to rest and adjust, which was plenty of time. But for the couple, it was incredibly stressful.
But if you have a means of transportation, it's a different story. That's a short distance; you should be able to get there and back in five minutes!
