Chapter 119 Konjac!

Pei Yuan gave him a blank look: "You can only think of this after recovering your memory?"

When Liang Jinxi heard what he said, she knew it was not the case, and her eyes dimmed.

"Master, if you haven't recovered your memory, how could you think of supplying the army?" He Yunxi asked.

"I just thought about it." Pei Yuan said.

"oh."

"But if this is supplied to the army, we won't have to worry about not having anything delicious to eat in future wars." Liang Jinxi said, "Eating this pepper will warm your body."

"There are still few peppers at the moment, but if they are mass-produced in the future, they will be fine." He Yunxi nodded.

It's extremely cold in the North, and the army can't drink. If there is such a hot sauce, the soldiers in the North will feel better.

The topic passed quickly, but Liang Jinxi took it to heart.

After lunch, He Yunxi was excited because the journey ahead was something she had never walked before.

After crossing Yandang Mountain, she saw some precious medicinal materials, so she stopped to dig them up, and asked them to come with her. Silver Moon and Lightning went to play on their own.

They didn't climb many mountains in the afternoon.

When it was getting dark, Pei Yuan said: "There is Shandong ahead. Let's go to a cave and spend the night."

When they arrived at the cave, they went to look for water, while He Yunxi and Liang Jinxi stayed behind to set up the stove and sort out the medicinal materials she dug in the afternoon.

In the evening, He Yunxi cooked white porridge for everyone and ate it with the xiaolongbao in the morning.

On the second day, He Yunxi took Liang Jinxi to pick medicinal materials in a non-dangerous place, while Lu Yan and Pei Yuan went to look for prey. It took a lot of effort to get here, but they couldn't go back empty-handed.

However, the two of them were not very lucky and did not encounter a ferocious animal.

He Yunxi was very happy because she found a lot of dry food and medicinal materials in the mountains. When she has time, she can come and move them back.

"There is a valley ahead, but it is full of snake-like plants. I don't know what's going on inside now."

"A plant like a snake?" He Yunxi was curious. Could it be a snake melon?

"Let's go in and take a look."

They turned two mountains and arrived at the valley that Pei Yuan said.

The plants in the valley have withered, and nothing like a snake can be seen, only patches of dead leaves.

"Let's find a place to rest in this valley tonight?" Lu Yan said to He Yunxi, but he saw her eyes shining brightly at the withered plants in the valley.

Liang Jinxi also noticed her appearance and asked, "Sister, did you see anything good?"

He Yunxi smiled: "I saw the baby."

"What baby makes you so excited?" Pei Yuan asked.

"That's it!" He Yunxi pointed to the plants in the valley, "These are all treasures! These things are super delicious when cooked!"

"These konjac?" Lu Yan knew this one, "They are useless, they are poisonous."

"Yes, its scientific name is Konjac." He Yunxi said, "It is indeed poisonous all over its body, especially the stems. But if it is eaten raw, it will be non-toxic if it is processed and made into vegetables."

"Is this thing really edible?"

"Not only is it edible, it's also very delicious! Especially the roasted duck, barbecue, stir-fried sauerkraut, etc., ha, it's really super delicious!" He Yunxi thought about those things and felt like his mouth was about to stay.

"Is this really that good?"

"Yes." He Yunxi nodded, "And this thing is very productive and can produce a larger amount of food!"

"Oh? How many can there be?"

"The konjac in this acre of land, well, I still like to call it konjac. The yield of konjac in one acre of land should be about two thousand kilograms. One kilogram of fresh konjac can make six to eight kilograms of konjac tofu."

He Yunxi's words shocked Lu Yan and Pei Yuan. Liang Jinxi didn't understand what such an output meant, but he knew from their reactions that it was a very high output.

"If it were really edible, the konjac in this valley could feed many people," Pei Yuan said.

If this thing really has a high yield, then this discovery would be extraordinary for the entire Daliang!

Lu Yanze was thinking of this year's cold winter. Many people froze to death in previous lives, and many others died of hunger because of the cold weather and lack of food.

And these konjac are here, but no one knows their uses.

"How are we going to make this? Can it be eaten after roasting?" Pei Yuan asked.

"No." He Yunxi said, "We can't do this here, we can only take it back." He Yunxi said, "It seems that this time our trip can only end here."

"Let's rest today and dig it out tomorrow." Lu Yan suggested.

"Okay, let's cut some poles today and stack them up to make a wall." He Yunxi said, "cut some branches and use them as a shed."

The four people divided into two groups and chose a relatively open place. They used the sickles they brought to cut the withered konjac stems and piled them into two sheds with three walls. The two sheds were not very big, so they put branches on top to cover them.

Can block some cold wind.

He Yunxi cut all the dry grass in front so that he wouldn't be afraid of burning the mountain when setting up a fire at night.

Pei Yuan and Lu Yan hunted pheasants on the road today, and there happened to be a stream in the valley. She cleaned them, marinated them, found a few green leaves and wrapped them, then wrapped them in mud, planning to make a beggar's chicken.

Come and eat.

The beggar's chicken is cooked in one shed, and the soup is cooked in the other shed. When the beggar's chicken and soup are ready, the two sheds are also warm.

"Although it's not as good as a cave, it's warmer at least. The ground is warm. I'll put some hay on it later to keep warm and make it softer." He Yunxi served soup to the three of them and picked up a bowl himself.

Put the soup in front of you, break off the pancakes you baked before and soak them until soft.

Fortunately, the weather is cooler now and the pancakes won't go bad if left unattended. Otherwise, it would not be easy to go into the mountains for so many days.

"This beggar's chicken tastes good. I didn't expect this chicken to be so delicious." Pei Yuan sighed.

With this food in her hands, any kind of cooking is possible.

"I know a lot of things. Master, it will definitely not be a loss for you to accept me as your disciple." He Yunxi said.

"Really? Then I'll be waiting for you to show your respect as my master." Pei Yuan leisurely tore off a chicken wing and chewed it happily, pretending not to see He Yunxi's reluctant eyes.

He Yunxi's favorite thing in the past was chicken feet and chicken wings, and he hadn't eaten them in a long time.

After dinner, He Yunxi sat in front of the shed and looked at the konjac in the entire valley. He felt so beautiful.

How much konjac can be made from this!

"No matter how hard you stare, you can't dig out those konjac immediately." Lu Yan stood behind her and said.

"I'm happy to think that I can dig out a lot of these!" He Yunxi said, "Look at the stems and leaves of those konjac, which shows that their stems are not small. The yield may be higher than I previously expected.

Lu Yan, do you know what this means?"
