Quick Wear: Crazy Fox Calm Tree

Although the strong boy also helped them pick fruits, he was quite picky. They had finally found the wild fruits, but he was very picky, complaining that the fruits were too rotten, too sour, or had spots on them.

Just because they thought the fruit might be poisonous, they threw away half of the wild fruits they had found with great difficulty, so it took them half a day to find just this little bit.

"Honey, those wild fruits look pretty good." The lively girl said helplessly.

"But they are really not good. What if you get sick after eating them?" The sturdy boy looked at the girl innocently.

"Oh, no! Doesn't the third brother recognize that fruit? That fruit is not poisonous at all." The lively girl tried to convince the other party.

The boy with glasses standing nearby also nodded. Although some wild fruits were inedible, those they had just encountered were edible.

Moreover, there were signs that the fruits had been eaten by birds, which further proved that the fruits were non-toxic.

"We can't take that risk, and besides, haven't we found so many good fruits?" The boy insisted, pointing to the fruits in the two girls' arms.

The girl with the ponytail was a little speechless. These fruits were good, but they were carefully selected by them. And if the boys were not so picky, they would have returned long ago, and might have had dinner by now.

"Okay..." The lively girl was a little frustrated, but she nodded and didn't mention the fruit anymore.

Who can blame him for having never eaten rotten fruit? The fruit he usually eats at home is carefully selected. Not to mention the worm holes, there might not even be a rotten apple on the apple.

Apples are not sold by pound, but by the piece. The nutritional composition table is clearly stated in various instruction manuals. No wonder the other party cannot accept fruit that has been pecked by birds.

After regaining their spirits, they returned to the gathering point with food. Mu Qing had already lit a fire at the gathering point, and there were some leaves and wild fruits roasted next to it, which smelled very sweet.

"It smells so good, what are these? Are they delicious?" The lively girl asked curiously, smelling the fragrance in the air.

“Well, this fruit can replace the staple food, but the portion is a bit small and it has no taste.

I looked around and only found these. You can try them and find more if you like them." Mu Qing nodded and handed the fruit to them.

Several people took the fruit, opened the shell, and tasted it carefully. The taste in their mouths was a bit like bread and a bit like sugarcane, but it was not that sweet. Instead, it was very chewy.

"Delicious! This will satisfy your hunger!" said the most handsome boy with his eyes lighting up.

"Indeed, this fruit is usually eaten in emergencies in the mountains. If you don't bring any food and get lost in the mountains, you can survive for a while by eating the fruit." Mu Qing said with his head down, adding some leaves to the fire as he spoke.

"What are these? They look like herbs that repel insects." The boy with glasses was a little confused and picked up a branch to identify it carefully.

"Yes, it's for repelling insects. There are many insects now. Light this herb and the insects won't dare to come over." Mu Qing nodded. As the leaves burned, a faint fragrance filled the air. Under the cover of this fragrance, it seemed that the insects were indeed gone.

"This is quite useful. Is it some special herb?" the sturdy boy asked curiously. Holding the herb in his hand, he had already thought about how to develop and produce it in the future.

"This is not some special herb. It's usually found in insect repellents. It's just that its efficacy is stronger, and most of the time it's used in pesticides." The most handsome boy explained.

"That's right. This ingredient is usually added to toilet water, mosquito coils, and pesticides. It's just a matter of amount. It's okay to just light it like this, and the efficacy won't be very great outdoors. But if it's extracted directly, it can kill insects and people." The boy with glasses nodded, put down the herbs in his hand, and dispelled his friend's dream of developing new products.

"So that's how it is!" The sturdy boy immediately lost interest and threw the herbs in his hand into the fire. "Then eat something. I'm a little hungry!"

"Yeah, it's almost done." The girl with a ponytail nodded as she turned the food over.

Mu Qing sat aside and watched them chatting quietly. It was getting darker and darker.

Listening to the faint howling of wolves in the air, everyone was either afraid or excited, but just in case, they all returned to the wooden house.

Although the cabin doesn't look big, it's spacious enough inside for the six of them to sleep.

Everyone stayed in the wooden house, talking about the outside world, life in the village, and what they had seen and heard in the past few days. They soon fell asleep while chatting.

Mu Qing rested in the corner with his eyes closed. When it was late at night and everyone was asleep, Mu Qing opened his eyes and quietly walked outside.

Standing in the mountain temple, Mu Qing lit the candles on both sides. Suddenly, the originally dim mountain temple became much brighter.

Mu Qing did not kneel down to worship the mountain god. Instead, he sat at the gate of the mountain god temple looking at the stars in the sky, wondering what he was thinking.

Just as he was in a daze, he suddenly noticed someone around him. He turned around and saw a young man walking out from behind a tree. It was the most handsome boy who should have fallen asleep.

"Can't sleep?" Mu Qing was a little surprised to see the other person appear, but also a little understood. He stretched out his hand and asked the other person to sit down.

"I'm not very sleepy yet. Why don't you sleep? Are you here to worship the mountain god?" The most handsome boy sat aside and asked puzzledly.

The reason why he was not sleepy was that he had stayed up too late before and his biological clock had not yet come. But Mu Qing was a villager, and according to the village's work and rest schedule, he should have been asleep by now.

"I'm not sleepy. I just came out for a while because I didn't feel like sleeping." Mu Qing shook his head. As for the other party's second question, Mu Qing did not answer.

"The villagers must both respect and fear the mountain god!" the most handsome boy suddenly asked.

Mu Qing was really surprised at this moment.

Facing Mu Qing's surprised look, the other party smiled and confidently stated his reasoning.

"The mountain temple looks well-maintained, with a large space inside and the wood used is of the best quality. It cannot be built in one or two years, especially at such a high place.

The villagers' intentions were obvious. As for why they were afraid, it was because there was only one statue of the god enshrined in the entire mountain temple. Normally, there would be some small statues or tablets enshrined next to such a place, but there were none here.

If the villagers really like the mountain god, they should be willing to offer their ancestors' tablets here. Although this distance is a bit far for us, it should not be far for the villagers, and they only need to come a few times a year during festivals, so it won't be too much trouble. "

Mu Qing couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
