Chapter 265: Sleeping in the forest
Zhou Tiantian's shouting attracted Zhen An Zhenhong and others.
When everyone saw that the two trees with small coral beads and small seeds on their heads were less than thirty meters apart, what was the ginseng they had always dreamed of?
"Oh, brother, look, they are all sixth-grade leaves." Zhenhui exclaimed.
This made Zhen An Zhenhong and the others very excited. "I just said, Tiantian cousin can always gain something when entering the mountain, right? Look, there are two ginseng trees so big."
The group of young men were all grinning, and they were so stupid that they were simply blind.
"No, don't you smirk there? Where is the red rope? Tie it."
Zhou Tiantian slapped her forehead. She really didn't want to admit that these people were her brothers, so she was so stupid.
"Oh, yes, yes, you see, I forgot."
When Han Zhenhong heard this, he hurriedly took out the red rope tied with copper coins and tied up the two ginseng trees.
Then, holding the deer bone tag, carefully plucking the soil bit by bit, for fear that it would destroy the integrity if it touched ginseng.
"It's time, someone has to go back and report a letter, otherwise grandpa and the others will not worry if we don't go back?"
Zhou Tiantian looked up at the sky, then looked at the watch on her wrist.
That was Chang Yanzhe's. Just now, Chang Yanzhe took it off and put it on Zhou Tiantian's wrist in order to make it easier to dig ginseng.
"It's three o'clock, it's still far back, grandpa must be anxious.
Second sister, otherwise you and Cousin Zhenhui, you can go back and deliver the letter and let A Tai accompany you back."
Zhou Yanyan couldn't help digging ginseng here, so she might as well go back and report the message and rest in the yard. Zhenhui had nothing to do even though she was young.
As for Zhou Tiantian herself, she is too young and is very tired today. She walks too slowly, so it is not suitable to go back to deliver letters.
Zhou Tiantian’s arrangement is very reasonable. Although Han Zhenhui really wanted to stay and see his brothers dig ginseng, he also knew the priorities.
So Han Zhenhui and Zhou Yanyan led the tiger Atae back.
The reason why Atai followed was to prevent any wild beasts on the way back.
After all, they were all very far away this time, and no one could guarantee that it would be fine on the road. It was somewhat guaranteed to lead Atai and take a hunting rifle.
Another, Atai is a wild animal and has a natural sensitivity to memory routes.
Zhou Tiantian was afraid that Zhou Yanyan and Han Zhenhui would not remember how they would go back. There would be no problem with Atae leading the way, and she would definitely be able to go back.
Zhou Yanyan and the others left. Here, Chang Yanzhe, Han Zhen'an and Han Zhenhong took the deer bone tags, carefully fiddled with the soil, and carried the ginseng out bit by bit.
Zhou Tiantian and Han Zhenyuan walked back and forth among the three of them, looking at this place and then on the other end.
On Chang Yanzhe's side, the ginseng has already exposed its entire shoulders, which is very thick. It looks very long underneath, and the weight is definitely not light.
Han Zhen'an and Han Zhenhong, after a long time, I finally saw the shoulders of ginseng, which looked quite small.
The children were extremely happy. No one expected that they would have such luck and met three trees at once, and each one was not small.
Carrying the mountain ginseng out is not an easy job, it is time-consuming and laborious.
As time goes by, the light in the forest becomes darker and darker.
When Han Zhenyuan saw this situation, he knew that he would definitely not be able to dig it out today, so he hurriedly cut a few pieces of wood elsewhere and tied them together, forming a triangle.
Then put the plastic cloth they brought from their home on it and spread the other part on the ground to make a simple tent.
Afterwards, Han Zhenyuan picked up a lot of dry firewood and gathered a fire near the tent.
The fire is not to keep warm, one is to protect against wild animals and the other is to repel mosquitoes.
Zhou Tiantian and Chang Yanzhe have been together for a long time, and they have known some herbs, thrown in the fire, and mosquitoes and other mosquitoes have been fumigated.
Han Zhenyuan wandered around again, found a place to fetch water, hung the kettle on the fire and boiled it.
"Tiantian, come and have some water. There are pancakes and pickles. Just eat a bite and don't be hungry."
Before entering the mountain, they prepared very well, and everyone carried a lot of things. They didn't use it two days ago, and it really came in handy today.
It was past six o'clock, and I spent a day in the woods during the day, and my physical strength was exhausted.
Zhou Tiantian was already hungry and put her chest on her back, and she didn't care about it, and grabbed the pancake and nibbled it.
I ate pancakes and pickles, and then took a sip of water. After eating four or five pancakes, I finally felt less hungry.
"Brother Yanzhe, fourth brother, fifth brother, come here to have something to eat, and work after you finish eating."
They brought enough dry food, and the ginseng had already been dug a lot, so they would definitely not be able to escape. They would eat first before they could have the energy to work.
Chang Yanzhe and others half squatted and half knelt on the ground for an afternoon. They were really tired. After thinking about it, they threw down the deer bone tag and went to eat together.
Everyone ate some pancakes, but they weren't hungry anyway, and then they continued to work with flashlights.
"Brother Yanzhe, how long does it take to lift this ginseng?"
Zhou Tiantian squatted beside Chang Yanzhe and asked while looking at the ginseng in the soil.
"There is no way to predict at the moment. You see, a piece has been unearthed now, but the main body has not yet been fully released.
I feel that it is quite long underneath, and with the ginseng beard, it is considered fast to lift this ginseng one day."
Digging ginseng is not an easy task. You must be careful and careful. You cannot break a little skin or tear apart a ginseng. This is a very time-consuming job.
As the sky gradually darkened, the battery in the flashlight gradually consumed all its power.
At this time, they were in the deep mountains and forests and did not dare to exhaust all their power, so they could only stop and rest in the end.
"Let's just do this tonight, let's get up and work tomorrow morning."
Zhou Yanyan and Han Zhenhui left, and there were five people left. The tent was not big, so three people slept.
Furthermore, someone has to watch the night at night, otherwise the fire will burn out. What if another beast comes?
Everyone discussed it and found that the remaining five people were vigil in shifts besides Zhou Tiantian.
The vigilant sat outside the tent, responsible for watching the fire, and the others were sleeping in the tent.
Zhou Tiantian was so tired that she didn't care whether to bury her or not. Anyway, she was covered with a layer of plastic cloth and she just lay down with her clothes.
In my ears, there was the rustling sound of the wind blowing through the woods, and the crackling sound of sparks bursting. Occasionally, there seemed to be a howl of a beast in the distance. I don’t know how long it took for Zhou Tiantian to fall asleep.
When he slept until midnight, Zhou Tiantian felt something soft and furry around her.
She didn't wake up, so she hugged her directly, warm and comfortable, so she slept even sweeter.
It was not until the next morning that I realized that she was sleeping with Atae in her arms. "Atai, when did you come back?"
Atae couldn't speak, he just used his head to urge Zhou Tiantian. Zhou Tiantian got up and came out of the tent, but found that Old Master Han, Zhou An and both were outside.
"Grandpa, dad, why are you all here?"
