Chapter 1943 Poison
This is the most ferocious species among monkeys. The emeishan master who became famous in later generations was actually the Emei Tibetan Chief Monkey. Many people thought it was a macaque, which unfortunately gave the macaque a bad reputation.
However, the criticism is not in vain, because the Tibetan chieftain and the macaque are both in the genus Macaca, and they are actually the largest species of macaque in the genus.
“What are they eating?” Mai Xiaomiao asked looking at the monkeys in the distance.
Zhou Zhi used the telephoto lens to zoom in on the monkey, and then took a photo. At this time, the digital camera did not have an external display, so he had to put his eyes close to the lens to see.
Let Mai Xiaomiao look at the photo of the monkey, and Zhou Zhi said: "That's a kiwi vine. It's the time when wild kiwi fruits are bearing fruit, and the monkeys are putting on autumn fat."
"They look like They are all fat enough." Mai Xiaomiao wrinkled her nose.
Zhou Zhi smiled and said: "Due to the difference in species, the Tibetan emirate is originally larger than the macaque. Coupled with the relationship between hair and body shape, it looks very majestic. In terms of visual effects, it is smaller than the macaque. The macaques are almost twice as strong as they are naturally. It’s not because they are fat.”
Mai Xiaomiao pointed to a monkey in the distance. Zi said: "There is one who is very fat and bullies the little monkeys."
"That's the monkey king." Zhou Zhi also saw it and said to Mai Xiaomiao: "He is the one who maintains the entire population. Those little monkeys In fact, they are all its offspring, and other male monkeys have no status in the monkey group until the monkey king grows old and is replaced by a new monkey king.”
"Ouch, what are they doing?" As he said this, the monkey group opposite seemed to be in turmoil. Several red-faced monkeys screamed and fought in the tree vines, and they were extremely fierce.
This time, the horses under the tree were really shocked. Zhou Zhi slapped his thigh and stood up: "Forgot that it is the estrus now, they will fight at any time!"
After saying that, he suddenly shouted: "Hey! Get out of here!" After saying that, he took the belt from his waist, folded it in half, grabbed both ends, brought his hands close together, and then suddenly straightened the belt.
The upper and lower belts suddenly touched together, making a clear "snap" sound that even echoed in the valley.
The Tibetan chief monkeys who were fighting in a group just now were all startled by the sudden sound. The monkey king was not afraid of the horses nearby, but was afraid of the two people who suddenly "appeared" on the other side. Really, this is the most terrifying creature in the world, so he took the lead and jumped and swayed away in the direction he came from.
The monkey kings all left, and the remaining monkeys also dispersed. The big green horse shook his head twice, turned his head again, walked on the lawn to the tree, and started to eat while the monkeys were moving. The kiwi fruit fell to the ground.
“What kind of fruit is kiwi fruit? It seems that monkeys and horses like to eat it.”
“Kiwi fruit is called kiwi fruit in English.”
“ It turns out to be kiwi. Isn’t kiwi from New Zealand? ”
“ Well, kiwi is actually a native species in China. It was later brought back to New Zealand by New Zealanders and cultivated into an agricultural variety with higher sugar content and larger fruits. Because the shape resembles the unique kiwi bird of New Zealand, it is called kiwi. Vigo, and the name spread throughout the world."
"So that's it. Then is this place like the cherry and pomegranate, the authentic... kiwi fruit you said?" Mai Xiaomiao said: "If this is the case, we can also introduce New Zealand kiwi fruit in the countryside. !”
“Uh... That’s true in theory, but it doesn’t seem to be the case yet. I heard that some agricultural science institute imported seedlings from New Zealand,” Zhou Zhi said with a smile, “That’s one thing, and the other thing is that I can’t bite off more than I can chew. I don’t have any expectations for the market prospects and expansion of kiwi fruit in New Zealand.” It’s as clear as pomegranate, even if you want to introduce it, you have to wait until the National Agricultural Science Institute introduces the seedlings and cultivates them to maturity. It’s just like we are now.”
“That’s right.” Mai Xiaomiao finally understood and said, “We can’t expect Uncle Tu to do the preliminary research work.”
“Hey——” At this time, Wu Renzhong shouted from the opposite side: “Those who want to leave the house must Come on, the pot opposite is so good——"
This is a common way for people to greet each other in the mountains. Relatives of the two families may live on the hills on both sides, and they can hear each other clearly when they wake up in the morning, but If you really want to visit, you may have to walk more than ten miles down the mountain and more than ten miles up the mountain. By the time you get there, it’s time to have lunch.
"Brother Jiuzi! We just saw a group of monkeys! Did you see it?" Before Zhou Zhi could reply, Azi's voice rang again. Zhou Zhi also shouted: "The group of monkeys just now were on the edge of the lawn opposite where the horses were. We were the ones who chased them away——"
After shouting, he said to Mai Xiaomiao: "Azi's voice is crisp and bright. She probably got it from practicing this way since childhood."
"I'll listen to you singing later." Mai Xiaomiao nodded: "Azi, Sister Shama, and you all sing very well."
Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "I'd better hurry up and do it first Let’s eat, this person who traveled through mountains and rivers will be hungry by the time he gets here.”
Today’s lunch is quite sumptuous in the wild. Deer ear and leek stalks are mixed with folded ear root, deer ear and leek are stir-fried with bacon, deer ear and leek leaves are stir-fried with chili and garlic, and there is also barbecue and blood sausage that Mai Xiaomiao doesn’t like to eat. .
In order to take care of the wheat seedlings, Zhou Zhi also added another dish, which was to stew yesterday's dried mushrooms with the pork belly.
In this dish, the leaves of deer ear and leek are chopped and used as seasoning.
Wu Renzhong floated over with a large snakeskin bag full of stuff. The previous rafts could not bear the weight of the bags, which made Zhou Zhi worried.
Fortunately, the deer-eared leek in the bag had some buoyancy on its own, so it was not abandoned halfway. When the bag was pushed to the water's edge, Wu Renzhong became proud again: "Look how much we have done!"< br>
Went up the mountain to grab it, and then we separated it when we came down. Zhou Zhi helped drag the bag to the shore and rummaged through it. There were at least twenty kilograms of deer-eared leeks, dozens of Wenwang pens, and some that Zhou Zhi didn't even recognize. root.
Zhou Zhi picked it up and looked at it: "What is this..."
"This is Cao Wu."
As soon as Jike Azi's words came out, Zhou Zhi was frightened. The grass roots have to be thrown out.
"What's wrong?" Mai Xiaomiao asked.
"This thing is highly poisonous." Zhou Zhi said: "Aconitine can poison people to death."
"It's not that exaggerated, there are several medicinal materials when it is well prepared!"
< br>"Are these the roots of several plants? They all look similar..." Mai Xiaomiao curiously squatted beside the roots to look at them, but Zhou Zhi threw them aside and she did not dare to reach out and touch them.
Jike Azi picked a few leaves of galangal and spread them on the ground, then put the roots in: "These are all medicinal roots, but you see, there are main roots, attached roots, and non-tapered roots. A single taproot with attached roots. "
"Because this taproot is big and looks like a crow, the medicinal material made from it is called Aconitum. We are the authentic source of Aconitum in Sichuan, and the Aconitum made from it is called Sichuan. Wu.”
"This kind of small root attached to the main root needs to be removed and processed separately, because it is like a child attached to its mother, attached around the main root, so it is called 'Aconite'."
"And this The seeds grow alone without the taproot to which the aconite is attached. The prepared medicinal materials will It’s called ‘Tianxiong’.”
“According to different processing methods, it is divided into Yanfuzi, Heishunpian, Baifupian, Huangfupian, Mingfupian, Danfupian and Paofu. Tablets, etc., there are subtle differences in usage.”
