Chapter 48 Edible New Things
With others on guard around, Mo Chi and others were obviously relaxed a little.
Mo Chi even patted Chen Yuan and whispered: "When I saw this long insect attacking you just now, I almost scared me to death. You can't play like this in the future!"
As he said that, Mo Chi even kicked the corpse of the python that was lying motionless on the ground.
Chen Yuan was reluctant to have more pythons like this so that he could advance quickly.
Of course, I thought so in my heart, but I didn’t dare to say that, but I just nodded quickly to show that I knew.
Mo Chi nodded with satisfaction.
"These big trees don't attack people?" At this time, Wu Dian had already touched the big tree next to him, looked up at the towering giant tree with almost no can see the crown, and his tone was full of smacking tongue.
"This forest has not mutated and will not attack people. We investigated it the last time we came out!" Ling Yu's calm voice sounded.
"Let's go nearby too!" Chen Yuan suggested that he finally came to the ground, but he didn't want to stand here and look at these people and sigh.
"Yes!" Mo Chi and Ling Yu looked at each other and nodded.
The four of them didn't disperse, but quietly lowered their bodies and walked slowly into the forest.
It is worth mentioning that the python hunted by Chen Yuan was now carried on Wu Dian on his shoulder. In his words, the meat of this big worm is a good thing. What if it stays there and is taken away by other things later?
Several people gradually began to penetrate the jungle. Under their feet, they had gradually transformed from the original green grass into thick leafy fields. They kept making creaking sounds when they stepped on it. Occasionally, they might even simmer a large area of black water when they stepped on it, which made Chen Yuan frown, and he missed the thing called "shoes" even more in his heart.
Unfortunately, thinking about this is a bit unrealistic now, Chen Yuan suppressed his mind and continued to look around.
"Hey, Brother Mo, look at what that is?" Wu Dian's voice suddenly rang.
Several people quickly turned their heads and looked, but found Wu Dian pointing to a large tree trunk not far away that had died and corrupt for some unknown reason.
To be more precise, it refers to the huge mushrooms on the trunk of a big tree that are the size of a millstone, brown-gray, and are as long as human ears!
These mushrooms that look like human ears are densely covered with the roots of this big tree. At a rough look, there are probably no less than a hundred!
The first time he saw these things, Chen Yuan's eyes lit up, and even his eyes were filled with excitement.
Mo Chi and others on the side did not pay attention to this point. Mo Chi even whispered: "I have never seen such things that look like human ears, but they are probably similar to the mushrooms we see in the underground cave. They should not be eaten. Let's look for something else!"
After saying that, the few people were about to continue moving forward, but found that Chen Yuan was standing there and not leaving. The few people looked at Chen Yuan in surprise, and then they found that Chen Yuan was staring at the "can't eat" things with excitement on his face.
Mo Chi frowned slightly and whispered: "Xiao Yuan, these things look good, but they may not be able to eat them. In the past, some people in our tribe were hungry and would eat what grew in the cave, and many people died because of this!"
"Uncle Mo, don't worry, this thing is edible. I have seen this thing in that inheritance! It's so delicious!"
As he was talking, Chen Yuan couldn't wait to walk under the rotten tree and instantly picked one.
After taking it in his hand and looking at it, Chen Yuan confirmed it even more.
That's right, this is fungus!
Thinking of the delicious dishes such as mushroom soup, fungus slices and other delicious foods in my previous life, Chen Yuan's saliva almost couldn't help but flow down.
Just when Chen Yuan was about to pick the second flower, he found someone around him faster than him!
It turned out that Mo Chi, Ling Yu, and Wu Dian had already rushed over when they heard Chen Yuan say that this thing could be eaten and began to pick it up with a groan. The speed was really much faster than Chen Yuan.
"Bah, this thing is not delicious either!" Wu Dian suddenly spoke.
Chen Yuan looked and found that Wu Dian had eaten a large piece of black fungus on his hand raw, and he burst into laughter.
"Uncle Wudian, this thing cannot be eaten raw. It is poisonous to eat raw. You have to go back and cook it before it tastes delicious!"
"Ah?" Wu Dian's expression changed and he was about to vent his head and vomited it out quickly.
"This one cannot kill people. At most, you will have stomachache after waiting!"
After saying this, Chen Yuan ignored Wu Dian and others and started picking it quickly. After all, I don’t know how long it can stay on the ground, so I have to hurry up and pick it all.
On the side, Mo Chi, Ling Yu and others were also clever when they saw Wu Dian's fate. They stopped the movements that were about to stuff into their mouths and began to bury their heads and quickly pick them.
Fortunately, when I went out to hunt, everyone carried a half-human-tall animal skin bag. These bags were sewn with animal skins, and there was no problem with putting these black fungus.
In just one cup of tea, the hundreds of fungus at the roots of the big tree had been picked by four people, and even the size of a fingernail was not spared.
God knows how excited Mo Chi and the others are!
This is a newly discovered edible species!
Over the years, they have been hungry most of the time under the ground except for hunting insects, strange beasts, or occasionally lucky to hunt a small arch dragon. They have never seen anything like this, let alone eating it, and now they have seen it, so they can't pick it.
Mo Chi and his men could even imagine the excitement of the clan leader and tribe tribe members when they returned with these new food.
"Uncle Wu Dian, come down, you can't go up!"
Chen Yuan's scolding sounded suddenly.
Wu Dian, who had climbed up the tree, suddenly stiffened his whole body and was so scared that he quickly slid back to the ground.
Mo Chi, Ling Yu and others who were beside him subconsciously looked up at the big tree and found that there were still many such edible mushrooms growing seven or eight meters away, and there was also a look of temptation in their eyes.
Chen Yuan suddenly smiled bitterly in his heart. Although he wanted to go up, they were not familiar with this forest. They climbed so high rashly. If they caused other things to come, the trouble would be great.
Unfortunately, afterwards, reason began to recover. Several people stopped looking at the things on the trunks, but instead looked around, hoping to see some fungus nearby.
Unfortunately, except for such a big tree that has grown a little rotten, it is surrounded by lush living trees, and there is no sign of growth at all.
"What a pity!" Mo Chi glanced at the trunks again and smashed his mouth.
"Uncle Mo, you won't run away if you put these things here. Now let's find out about the surroundings first. When it's confirmed that there is no danger, it's not too late for us to come back and pick them!" Chen Yuan said with a smile.
"Well, Xiao Yuan is right, I'm worried!" Mo Chi smiled, tied the bag containing the fungus around his waist, picked up the mountain-opening axe with his right hand, and walked forward.
At this moment, a man suddenly ran back on the left hurriedly. When he saw Chen Yuan and others, he rushed over.
"Captain, I discovered that there seems to be an unmutated beast in front of me!"
