"Gulu, gurgle,"
While shouting, the little foodie pointed at the bushes not far away.
"Something?"
Jiang Ye was a little surprised and glanced at the little foodie.
It must have discovered something, so it's calling out like that.
But Jiang Ye was a little curious, why didn’t his system give any prompts?
Is it that my system is slacking off, or is it that my little foodie’s feeling is wrong?
In order to verify this, Jiang Ye walked towards the place where the little foodie was pointing.
After approaching a bush, Jiang Ye looked around carefully.
"It looks like there's a bird's nest inside, and it's quite large."
As he spoke, Jiang Ye parted the bushes and saw the bird's nest.
"Unfortunately, there's nothing."
The little foodie also saw the bird's nest, and then he covered his eyes with his hands.
[Oh my god, it's so cute! It actually covers its eyes with its hands?]
[Are you embarrassed, little foodie? This is too cute, right?]
[Oh my god, this is so cute that it makes my face bleed. ]
How could he still be like this? He's so smart! I really want a little foodie too. I'd be happy to pay a few million for one!
[I'm so angry. Why don't we have such cute little animals in our world? ]
[How could there be none? Isn't a four-legged gold-eating beast cuter than a little foodie? And it can even talk! ! ! ]
[That's right, how can a human cub be better than a little foodie?]
"You're being maliciously cute, that's too much, little foodie!!" Gu Ning, who had been following Jiang Ye's live broadcast, naturally saw it as well. They didn't go out, so they had plenty of time.
So, she and Ling Wei now take turns using two mobile phones to check the live broadcast rooms in the two worlds to see if they can get any results.
For example, discovering some edible plants that others have found, or some practical survival skills.
Gu Ning didn’t care much about it before, but now that he can’t work and can’t go out, he always needs to find something meaningful to do.
If there is any discovery, it will not only help himself and Ling Wei, but also help Jiang Ye.
"Okay, don't be embarrassed. It's raining now. It's normal to make wrong judgments." Jiang Ye held the little foodie in his arms to comfort him, and then continued to move forward with the little foodie.
There must have been a bird in that nest before, and the smell was left behind.
The heavy rain must have had a significant impact on the little foodie's sense of smell, which led to its misjudgment.
After comforting the little foodie, he took his hand away.
"Okay, let's put it back on the backpack first." Seeing that the little foodie was no longer covering his eyes, Jiang Ye put it back on his shoulder.
The little foodie was very cooperative and got directly into the backpack.
So Jiang Ye continued to walk forward with the little foodie.
After more than ten minutes, Jiang Ye heard a system prompt sound in his mind.
Jiang Ye felt ecstatic, thinking that he might be able to get food.
[Hint: Perilla frutescens is growing 12 meters away from you at 1 o'clock. This plant is an annual herb in the Lamiaceae family. The stem is 0.3-2 meters tall, green or purple, obtusely quadrangular with four grooves, densely covered with long hairs, and has broadly ovate or rounded leaves.]
Perilla can be used as both a medicine and a spice. Its main medicinal components are the stems, leaves, and seeds. The leaves are a diaphoretic, antitussive, aromatic stomachic and diuretic, with analgesic, sedative, and detoxifying properties, useful for treating colds. The stems calm qi and promote pregnancy. The seeds can relieve coughs, expectorants, asthma, and relieve mental dullness. The leaves are also edible, enhancing the flavor of meat when cooked with it. The oil extracted from the seeds, known as perilla oil, is both edible and a preservative, useful for industrial applications.
Good job!
It’s perilla?
If there are a lot of them, they can indeed be eaten!
Moreover, Jiang Ye used to often eat a kind of potato shredded soup cooked by his mother, in which perilla was added. It not only tasted good but also had a special fragrance.
When cooking fish, his mother also liked to add perilla leaves to enhance the flavor and remove the fishy smell.
Therefore, Jiang Ye still likes the fragrance of perilla leaves.
Jiang Ye approached the target directly, chopping the bushes to mark himself.
The smell of perilla is quite strong and very unique.
Maybe the little foodie also smelled it after it got closer, and it came out of the backpack again.
It stretched its head and sniffed hard.
【Have you, the little foodie, discovered something new? 】
"That should be it, seeing as its nose keeps moving. However, it's much more cautious this time, not getting too excited, but checking first."
[This isn't a pet, it's a walking cheat. Carrying it doesn't mean you have a radar that can detect all kinds of prey.]
[Indeed, with a little foodie, finding prey is so much easier. Moreover, it will go back to hunt and bring back its prey.]
"Hey, look what I found!"
Jiang Ye shouted happily and then quickened his pace.
"Perilla, I found perilla! More than a dozen perilla plants."
"Very good!"
"I'm going to pull them all back and plant them near the camp." Jiang Ye used to have a perilla plant on the balcony of his home. It's a very easy plant to grow.
So, there is no problem at all transplanting them back.
"Yes, it's perilla. I'm very familiar with this smell." Jiang Ye picked a leaf, rubbed it in the palm of his hand, and the fragrance spread in the air.
So Jiang Ye started digging these perilla leaves using his spear.
Because his spear has a broad blade, and the widest part is nearly four fingers wide, it can still be used to dig things.
Jiang Ye had also considered this at the beginning.
Maybe because of the rain, the soil was very soft, and Jiang Ye dug them all out in just over ten minutes.
After digging, Jiang Ye tied them up with cloth strips.
Because there are too many of them, it is not convenient to put them in the backpack.
"Perilla leaves can be cooked and eaten directly, although their main function is to serve as a spice. There are so many leaves, probably two or three pounds, that they can be used as a meal when there's no food."
"Keep looking, maybe there will be other discoveries."
The discovery of Perilla gave Jiang Ye some confidence.
He hung the perilla upside down on the outside of the backpack so that it would not affect his movements or the little foodie in the basket.
Jiang Ye continued to move forward with his spear, hoping that he could hear the system's prompt again and hope to get some good food.
For example, if you find some staple foods like cassava or taro and have dozens of kilograms in your hands, you don’t have to worry about food problems.
Continuing to explore the surroundings, Jiang Ye discovered that the little foodie had picked some perilla leaves and was eating them happily.
However, the smell of perilla leaves is quite strong, and eating them may affect the little foodie's sense of smell.
Sometimes, its sense of smell is quite useful.
After exploring for half an hour, a prompt finally sounded in Jiang Ye's mind again.
