Chapter 8 Backyard Renovation and Expansion Plan
Li Xiang thought about it, now that there is no shortage of meat, he would still go to the bar.
This kind of potential beast is definitely better when soaked in wine.
Red Chain Snake Medicinal Wine has the effects of dispelling wind and cold, warming menstruation and relieving pain. The main ingredient in it is snake bones. Of course, snake meat and snake gall also have certain medicinal value.
Li Xiang carried the red chain snake weighing three to four kilograms to the creek, disembowelled it, bled it, and removed excess internal organs. The gallbladder was left naturally, and the scales were cleaned. He washed it with clear stream water and propped it up with a small bamboo stick. Hanging under the eaves.
After it dries, buy high-strength soju to soak it.
Some people soaked live snakes in wine and soaked them for several years. As a result, the snakes did not die, but were bitten when they were opened. Li Xiang would definitely not do such a thing.
If a live snake is thrown into wine, is it medicinal wine? It must be corpse water.
Originally, Li Xiang wanted to film the process of handling the red chain snake and edit it into a short video, which might gain a wave of traffic, but then he thought that this little thing was most likely a nationally protected animal, so it was better not to commit suicide.
When making dinner, Li Xiang took out one of the first-level rare herb Purple Golden Matsutake, cut it into small slices, and mixed it with the small mushrooms, bigfoot mushrooms, and black truffles. The half basket of mushrooms he picked before was not finished yet, so he could How many meals have I had?
I have to say that after adding the purple golden matsutake, the chicken soup becomes more fragrant.
The system determined that the beasts killed were alien beasts. In fact, because the system arrived early, these alien beasts had not yet mutated, but the rewards distributed to the system warehouse were genuine exotic herbs.
Because he didn't know how effective it would be, Li Xiang only put one in. He was afraid that if he put too much, it would not replenish his grandma's strength, but would be harmful.
As night fell, after serving his grandma to sleep, Li Xiang came to the front yard, stretched out his body, and performed physical skills, supplemented by unique breathing techniques. This time, he suddenly felt different, with heat rising in his body. After the breathing techniques guided him, It slowly turned into a stream of warmth.
I have found the feeling of the extraordinary state in my previous life.
In his previous life, even though extraordinary particles emerged on the earth, it still took him a long time, a full year and a half, to reach the extraordinary level.
But in this life, the breathing method had just begun, and in less than two minutes, extraordinary energy was born in the body.
I have to say it is a gratifying thing.
When Li Xiang got up the next morning and brought breakfast to his grandma, he found that her face was rosy and her energy was much better than before. It seems that the medicinal power of Purple Golden Matsutake is working.
"Grandma, I want to clean up the weeds in the backyard today." Li Xiang said.
My grandma is old. She used to mainly do her activities in the front yard, which has a flat surface and a large vegetable garden. However, the backyard is close to the back mountain, is rocky, and has many weeds and trees. If it is not taken care of, it has become like a virgin forest. Likewise, the Red Chain Snake invaded yesterday because there were too many weeds in the backyard.
Li Xiang decided to renovate and expand the backyard, and then enclose it with a wall, which would make it much safer. Moreover, the backyard is backed by a mountain, which makes it more quiet and suitable for landscaping.
He chose a place with a good viewing angle and used a stand to prop up his mobile phone. He planned to record the entire backyard renovation process.
Then take out the whetstone and start sharpening the knife under the camera.
About ten minutes later, a hatchet and a sickle were both sharply polished, and the edges shone with a cold light.
Li Xiang took the knife and stick and started working quickly. First, use a stick to drive away the snakes, insects, rats, and ants hiding inside. Then use a sickle to harvest the weeds. After the weeds are cleared, use a hatchet to chop down the trees and pile them aside. When they dry up, they can be used as firewood. .
When you encounter large or beautiful stones, collect them. These stones will be useful in the future.
Two big yellow dogs also joined in, running around and making things even busier than Li Xiang.
The pregnant old cat lay lazily on the roof. There was a persimmon tree in the backyard, full of fruits. The sun shone through the branches and leaves, making the light and shadow mottled. The old cat lay in the light and shadow, enjoying the breeze.
When Li Xiang got tired, he climbed up a tree, found a red persimmon within reach, picked it off, and tasted it. It was still too hard and astringent, and it was not yet ripe.
The lifespan of a persimmon tree is very long, up to more than 300 years. The persimmon tree in Li Xiang's family has been several meters tall since he can remember. It is estimated that it has been growing for more than 30 years. At that time, the frost leaves are dyed red, and in the winter months, after the leaves fall, the persimmons become bright red, but they still do not fall, and the tree is covered with red fruits.
If it snows again, the scenery will be amazing.
When Li Xiang cleans and remodels the backyard, other trees will be cut down, but this persimmon tree will never be touched.
When the persimmons are ripe in winter, they are picked and dried in the sun to make persimmons. A layer of sweet white frost will precipitate on them, which is the sugar alcohol secreted by the fruit itself. The more white frost, the higher the quality of the persimmons.
When Li Xiang was working in a big city, he didn't dare to buy persimmons because unscrupulous vendors were in a hurry to sell the persimmons and couldn't wait for the white frost to separate. In order to make them look good, they would sprinkle talcum powder to create a "white frost, high quality" feeling. "Illusion.
Eating too many persimmons can easily lead to stomach stones, and with the addition of talcum powder, it becomes even more serious.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Some people still advocate that talcum powder is not harmful to the body due to profit issues, but has certain medicinal value, and that moderate intake is good for the body. That is simply nonsense.
Persimmons are sprinkled with talcum powder, day lilies are sprinkled with sulfur... Food safety is worrying, which is another reason why Li Xiang wants to return to his hometown to farm.
At home, he at least eats healthily.
Since Li Xiang was busy, his grandma cooked for lunch, so Li Xiang did not put the purple matsutake mushrooms into the dish. When it was dinner time, Li Xiang came to cook again, so he fried a plate of shredded mushrooms and pork, and cut the purple golden matsutake mushrooms into slices. , mixed with small mushrooms, bigfoot mushrooms, and black matsutake, grandma just thought they were ordinary mushrooms.
Since grandma was older and ate less, most of the food went into Li Xiang's stomach.
Although the Purple Golden Matsutake is a first-class exotic herb, it is actually extremely powerful. Li Xiang does not dare to let his grandma eat too much. Anyway, with the system in place, there will be many opportunities to eat such good things in the future.
For someone with an old constitution like grandma, it is best to do it in small amounts and often.
After dinner, Li Xiang also tried to teach grandma some breathing techniques. Through breathing techniques, the medicinal power in the body can be refined.
But my grandma tried it and found it too difficult, so she smiled and waved her hands and said that she would stop learning when she was old. Li Xiang would naturally not force it.
Because many things are about talent and basic skills, it is really not easy to get started and it is unlikely to be effective for someone who is over 70 years old and practices this kind of thing. If you make a mistake during practice, it may have negative consequences.
That night, under the moonlight, Li Xiang practiced the breathing method again.
The air in the countryside was particularly fresh at night. He breathed at a specific mysterious frequency, and his abdomen, lungs, and muscles all moved with a unique rhythm. Coupled with physical training, about half an hour later, his body surface suddenly bloomed with radiance.
