Chapter 188 Fresh and tender wild vegetables
Jiujiu flew in front, and Jian Mo and the others followed behind.
Jiujiu had a very clear goal, and it never landed on the ground. It seemed that it must have remembered the place with the throat eyeballs.
Jian Mo watched them go farther and farther, and his mood gradually became excited.
Judging from Jiujiu's performance, there must be a bunch of throat eyeballs ahead.
Not long after walking, Jiujiu brought them to the shady side of a mountain, and then called to them twice: "Jiujiu."
Jian Mo's eyes widened: "Are there throat eyeballs here?"
Jiujiu called again, and without waiting for their further instructions, it dragged its chubby body into the bushes.
After drilling into the bushes, it turned around with dead leaves on its head and called out twice: "Chirp."
Jian Mo immediately slid down from the giant wolf: "Wait, I'll be right up."
Jiujiu had already drilled through the bushes. Jian Mo bent down and drilled directly into the path it had opened: "Where is it?"
"Chirp!" Jiujiu pointed with its claws and drilled forward again, with a hint of anxiety in its voice, "Chirp."
Jian Mo stared for a long time but couldn't find it.
Jiujiu was anxious, and it looked like she wanted to push him forward: "Jiujiu!"
Wu Jiong changed back to human form, bent over and walked over: "It's in the front left."
Jian Mo followed his words and looked over, and then he saw a pile of dry leaves in the front left: "So it's there, this color is really hard to find."
Jiujiu called out twice weakly: "Jiujiu."
Jian Mo listened to Jiujiu's complaints and felt embarrassed: "My eyesight is indeed not as good as yours."
Wu Jiong whispered: "Be careful of the thorns under your feet."
Jian Mo then saw that the small bushes under their feet were densely covered with thorns. If they accidentally bumped into them, they would definitely have a zipper-like scar on their skin.
The two of them squeezed through the bushes and soon walked to the throat eyeball.
The plant of the throat eyeball looks like grass, because in autumn, the plant has withered, and you have to break open the leaves to see the fruits deep in the leaves.
No wonder it is called the throat eyeball, as if it is an eyeball growing deep in the throat.
Jian Mo picked the mature throat eyeballs himself: "One, two, three, four, five, exactly five."
Wu Jiong: "To have such a harvest from the first plant, you have good luck today."
Jian Mo turned his head and glanced at Jiujiu: "We didn't rely on luck today, it's all Jiujiu's strength."
Jiujiu cooperated by raising its head and chest, but unfortunately its head hit the bushes above as soon as it raised its head, making it cry "嘤" and mosquito coils almost appeared in its eyes.
Jian Mo quickly went over and touched its head: "Let's go, let's go out first, this bush is too annoying."
The two of them backed away and went out from where they came.
When they reached an open place, Jian Mo stretched his back hard: "Finally I got out. It was really uncomfortable to be hunched over in the bushes just now."
Wu Jiong patted his shoulder: "Let's continue to look for it separately. Chirp, call us when you find it."
Chirp took two steps forward and flew up with the wind: "Chirp."
Jian Mo pulled Wu Jiong around.
The throat eyeball is a plant. Logically, its seeds will not spread very far, and it should be found nearby.
However, the two of them tried their best and still couldn't find the throat eyeball.
I don't know if it's bad luck or lack of strength.
It was Jiujiu who called them with a "Jiujiu" voice not long after.
They ran over to meet Jiujiu, and this time they picked seven throat eyeballs, all of which were quite big and of good quality.
After picking, the two sides separated again.
Not long after, good news came from Jiujiu again.
After a day of picking, Jian Mo and his friends picked up half a basket of throat eyeballs, a total of fifty-three.
Except Jiujiu, the others and Jiujiu did not gain anything.
When it was time to go back in the evening, Jian Mo flapped Jiujiu's wings and said with great emotion: "Jiujiu is really powerful."
Jiujiu puffed out his chest: "Jiu."
Ying Ao, who had been searching for a whole day and still couldn't find any throat eyeballs, squatted behind him without saying a word.
Jian Mo patted Ying Ao on the shoulder and said, "Ying Ao has worked hard, and the mushrooms you found are delicious."
Ying Ao cried out softly, looking a little unconvinced and a little tired - this was the first time Ying Ao lost to Jiu Jiu.
Jian Mo understood his feelings and patted him again to comfort him.
When they returned to the Nongliu tribe, everyone came to see the supplies they had collected, and when they saw half a basket of throat eyeballs, everyone was surprised.
"Doctor Jian Mo, where did you find the throat eyeballs?"
"I thought we had picked them all before. It seems that there are more throat eyeballs on the mountain than I thought."
"The quality of these throat eyeballs is also very good, and they are bigger than the ones we picked ourselves."
Yisen, the chief of the Nongliu tribe, asked: "Doctor Jianmo, you want to make scar-removing plasters with these throat eyeballs?"
Jianmo: "Part of it will be used as plaster, and part of it will be kept for pickling meat. I promised that if I can collect throat eyeballs, I will make delicious food for them."
Another person from the Nongliu tribe interrupted: "There are so few throat eyeballs, why don't you bring some meat pickled with throat eyeballs back from our tribe, Doctor Jianmo. They are all pickled meat, the same."
Jianmo smiled and declined: "No, that won't do. If it breaks its promise this time, Jiujiu won't listen to orders next time."
Jiujiu took the opportunity to flap its wings and shouted, "Jiu——"
Wu Jiong patted Jiujiu, "It looks like you can't fool it anymore."
Yisen looked at Jiujiu enviously, "Jiujiu is really smart, smarter than many people."
Jian Mo, "It's only smart when it comes to eating, but not so-so in other things."
Yisen looked at Jiujiu, "It's also possible that it only cares about food and doesn't bother with other things, so it looks so-so."
Jian Mo laughed, "Now that you mention it, Jiujiu seems to be pretty amazing."
But it's unlikely. Jiujiu is a bit cunning, but there aren't as many as 800 of them. It probably won't pretend to be anything.
Jian Mo and his team came here mainly to pick the throat eyeballs. After picking them, they planned to go back.
Jian Mo: "While the throat eyeballs are still fresh, we plan to take them back and make plasters."
Yisen said reluctantly: "Aren't you going to make a medical round here?"
Jian Mo: "We'll come back after a while. In addition to the medical rounds, we'll also promote it to see if we can recruit some students who are interested in witch doctors."
Yisen immediately said: "We still need to promote it. As long as you say it, there will definitely be a lot of people willing to sign up. There are many young people in our tribe who want to be witch doctors."
Before he finished speaking, several young people in the crowd raised their hands in unison: "Doctor Jian Mo, we want to go!"
Jian Mo smiled: "I'll be there as soon as I get ready." I will let everyone know. When the class officially starts, I will have an exam. "
Someone asked: "Are you going to test the characters you teach? We don't know them."
Jian Mo waved his hand: "No, no one has learned them, how can we test whether we can recognize characters? We will test other things. As for what we will test, I will announce it when we officially recruit students."
The person asking the question became nervous: "Will it be very difficult?"
Jian Mo: "It is a little difficult, but not very difficult. You will know when the time comes. There will definitely be someone who can pass the exam."
The people from the Nongliu tribe asked him questions left and right, but they couldn't get any useful information out of him, so they had to let it go for the time being.
Everyone helped to pack up their things, preparing to let Jian Mo and his friends take some supplies back.
Jian Mo was now very familiar with the products of the Nongliu tribe. He was surprised to see that there were many fresh wild vegetables among the things they had packed up: "Why are there still these vegetables in this season?"
It was already autumn, and the grass and trees outside began to wither. There were very few edible wild vegetables. Even if the wild vegetables did not wither, they would become old and tough, bitter and difficult to swallow.
People rarely eat wild vegetables in autumn, and usually eat stems, fruits and the like, which taste better.
Yisen said, "These are the wild vegetables sent by Yuqi. I saw that you like to eat wild vegetables, so I packed them for you."
Jian Mo was surprised when he heard the familiar tribe: "Yuqi tribe? The tribe of Chief Qi Ming?"
Yisen nodded: "That's them. You have dealt with them before, right?"
Jian Mo: "Yes, we are quite familiar with them. The wild vegetables there should have withered, so how come there are still fresh wild vegetables?" Yisen
: "I don't know about that. Anyway, they sent the wild vegetables here and told us to try them. When we want to eat them in the future, we can go to their place to exchange them. We were also quite surprised."
The Nongliu tribe is very close to the Yuqi tribe, separated only by a narrow territory of the Snow Foot tribe.
With the running speed of the beastmen, they ran there in a few hours.
Jian Mo looked at these fresh wild vegetables, and was really curious: "I guess they have something new there. Let's go to their place tomorrow to take a look."
Yisen immediately said: "We will send someone to go with you."
Jian Mo pointed at Jiujiu and Yingao and declined: "We want to ride on flying beasts, I'm afraid we have a different way."
Yisen glanced at the two flying beasts and said regretfully: "If our tribe also raised flying beasts, Winged beasts are fine. When will your flying winged beasts give birth to cubs? If they do, can you give us one in exchange? "
Jian Mo smiled and said, "I'm afraid there's nothing we can do about that. They're both male."
Yisen was very sorry, "It's a pity that such a good flying winged beast has no cubs."
Jian Mo: "Our Jiujiu and Yingao are still young."
Apart from anything else, Jian Mo is not ready to take care of a grandson for the time being, even if the grandson is little Jiujiu.
After chatting for a few words, Jian Mo and his friends said they wanted to rest first.
After a day of wandering in the mountains, even if most of the throat eyeballs were found by Jiujiu, Jian Mo and his friends were exhausted. They had to go to bed and wash up quickly, as they had to travel again tomorrow.
Before washing up, Wu Jiong said, "Go ask Jiujiu and the others if they want to take a bath together?"
Jian Mo laughed, "You even have to ask Jiujiu and the others for their opinions."
Wu Jiong: "After swimming all day, they are all covered in mud."
Jiujiu and Ying Ao can swim. Jiujiu likes swimming very much, but based on the nature of animals, it doesn't like taking a bath very much. Ying Ao doesn't like it very much either, mainly because they don't like to be rubbed by others.
When they were too dirty, Jian Mo took them to take a bath without asking for their opinions.
Now that it's not that dirty, it's better to ask them before taking them to take a bath.
Jian Mo asked Jiujiu and Ying Ao with a smile.
Jiujiu didn't understand after listening for a long time, and looked at Jian Mo blankly with his big eyes.
Ying Ao understood, and followed Jian Mo slowly, seemingly having no objection to taking a bath.
Ying Ao agreed, and Jian Mo simply dragged Jiu Jiu along. This guy had crawled through a lot of bushes today, and his body was covered with grass seeds and dead leaves, so he needed a good wash.
