Day by day in the infinite game

226. Walk in the Desert (Twenty)

Splendens splendens has extensive ecological plasticity. Under complex living environment conditions, it can form grassland types with various companion species. It is an important community building species in salinized meadows. It has a strong root system, is drought-resistant, saline-alkali resistant, and is adaptable to clay soil and

Sandy loam soil is found in all harsh environments from deserts to arid areas. It is like a guardian of the sand and an indispensable plant in people's lives in the northwest.

According to different uses, Achnatherum splendens is also harvested in different periods. Forage grass is harvested from May to July, and for weaving, it is harvested from September to October.

After harvesting, it should be dried in time to prevent insects, fire and rats.

Speaking of rodent prevention, this place is located in the inland area of ​​the west. The protagonist of the "rat problem" we face is not the ordinary voles we often talk about, but the well-known als yellow squirrels, Bush's voles, etc. There are also plateau rats in high altitude areas.

Rabbit is involved.

They eat leaves, stems, seeds and buds, consume forage, and build nests in the roots of Achnatherum splendens, destroying root development until the plant dies.

We all know that there are three treasures in the northeastern region of our country, "ginseng, mink fur, and urala grass", while the northwest region also has three treasures, "Elaeagnus angustifolia, red willow, and splendens splendens."

It can be seen that Achnatherum splendens plays an important role in the minds of local people.

After Tang Qinqin took the dried Achnatherum splendens leaves, he quickly found the feel and knitted a straw hat neatly.

"Oh, it's so beautiful." Aunt Lan saw it and couldn't help but praise it.

"Aunt Lan, please don't praise her. After all, she has learned a little bit." Lan Lan stuck out her tongue at Tang Qinqin, then leaned over and looked longingly at Aunt Lan and the exquisite handicrafts in her hands: "Teach me a lesson."

Well, Aunt Lan, I also want to make such a beautiful piece of art."

"Okay, of course. Come on, let me teach you the basics first..." Aunt Lan smiled softly.

She looked at the young people in front of her who exuded a fresh and youthful atmosphere, and couldn't help but think of her own green years.

Back then, I was accompanied by three or five friends, playing together, shepherding sheep, and looking forward to the future together.

I wonder if they are okay now?

"Here, the delicious roasted lamb leg is on the table!"

“The mutton dumplings are also good here!”

“Freshly cooked mutton soup! Don’t miss it if you pass by!”

"Here comes the sheep bone!"

"..."

Snowflakes were flying outside, the house was steaming, and the lively fireworks made everyone's faces look rosy and happy.

"It's time to eat, it's time to eat! Everyone, come here with your own food!" Peng Lei took a deep breath of the unique aroma of the mutton on the table in front of him, stood up and greeted.

"Let's eat! The mutton rice is ready!" Uncle Li also raised his voice and laughed so hard that he couldn't see his eyes. He hadn't been in such a joyful mood for a long time.

He also invited several other families to join in the fun.

There were not enough tables, and the kang was full of people, so the remaining players sat on the floor, in pairs, holding their own big bowls filled with mutton and cooking.

Uncle Li and a few other old friends were already enjoying their drinks and chatting about all kinds of things. Aunt Lan would get up from time to time to refill the bowls for the players, just like a cafeteria worrying about whether the children would have enough to eat.

The cook aunt.

After eating, everyone left the table. Uncle Li, who was a little drunk, snored again. Several other aboriginals who were also drunk were supported by several male players and sent back to their homes. The others took it upon themselves to help clean up the bones and remains.

And washing dishes and chopsticks, division of labor and cooperation, the efficiency is extremely high.

"Aunt Lan, what should I do with this sheepskin?" Laojiu asked as he squatted aside.

Sheepskin can not only be used as clothing and bedding to keep out the cold and for decoration, but it can also be used as traditional Chinese medicine, which can be taken internally or externally. Its main functions are: removing blood stasis, weakness due to fatigue, deficiency of lung and spleen, swelling and pain due to bruises, and bleeding due to poison.

Laojiu can now be regarded as a fan of traditional Chinese medicine. He is very interested in the medicinal materials recorded in medical books that can be used as medicine.

Good sheepskin is of high value, and processing sheepskin well is an important part of increasing income and improving economic benefits.

Uncle Li and Aunt Lan, who work with sheep all year round and make a living as shepherds, have a lot of experience in how to obtain a beautiful and perfect sheepskin.

At this time, the sheepskin has been completely peeled off, and there is no need for players to watch another "Ga Sheep Live Broadcast".

"The sheepskin in this state needs to be scraped off the remaining meat scraps, fat and other materials with a knife. Be careful not to scratch it. We usually use a blunt knife to scrape it." Aunt Lan said while operating skillfully, "These

We generally don’t want the edge of the sheep’s horns, as it affects the neat shape of the leather and may be cut off.”

When Aunt Lan sees a piece of sheepskin that is even, square, and naturally stretched, players who are self-consciously skilled and bold will be eager to try it.

"Aunt Lan, can you let me try the remaining sheepskins?" After the male player finished speaking, he scratched his head in embarrassment. He knew that these sheepskins were the source of exchange for their daily necessities, so he added: "

Can I buy it?"

"What a sensible and good boy," Aunt Lan smiled and nodded, "Come on, I'll leave it to you, Aunt Lan will give it to you."

There was an air of simplicity in her smile that made people feel close to her.

The male player shook his head repeatedly and insisted on putting the money in Aunt Lan's hand.

"I accept Aunt Lan's wishes. But you have to do whatever you want." He insisted.

"Aunt Lan, look at it for me. I need to ask you to point out what I did wrong."

"Okay." Aunt Lan nodded.

Who could bear to refuse such a humble, studious, well-behaved and polite young man?

"Yes, very nice. Our last step is to pickle it with salt and dry it. When the weather is bad, you can also bake it slowly by the fire, but you must pay attention to the heat and be patient." Aunt Lan

He affirmed the "debut" of the male player's sheepskin treatment and continued to give instructions.

"Hahaha, I succeeded!" The player couldn't help but dance with joy.

Recently, he has participated in herding sheep repeatedly in the game, and he has gradually adapted to and liked his new identity as a shepherd.

For sheep whose whole body is full of treasures, if it weren't for the wrong season, he would really like to try shaving the sheep to see if shaving the sheep is really a great relief.

After two days of heavy snow outside, the sky finally cleared up.

Everyone worked together to clear the snow from the main road and clear the way for Uncle Li, who was about to leave for the town to exchange for daily necessities.

When Uncle Li led the horse over, the players realized that Uncle Li not only raised sheep, but also had horses and several camels in the backyard.

The horses and camels are a bit old, and Uncle Li doesn't use them to do much work anymore. Instead, he takes good care of them and provides them with care in their old age.

When they were young, they accompanied him through hardships, through wind and rain, and silently accompanied him through spring, summer, autumn and winter.

Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect.

He also sincerely respects these old friends who have been with them for many years.

Taking the sheepskins and handicrafts he had accumulated earlier, Uncle Li set out at Aunt Lan's instructions.

The players who had nothing to do were worried about the lack of excitement in winter, so they followed Uncle Li to go shopping in the town.
