Chapter 31 Durian?!
There are indeed many new foods found in the new environment. After a morning of identification and collection, Lin Shu and her group discovered tomatoes, white radish and wild leeks respectively.
Everyone collected some of these foods and went back. Lin Shu thought that tomatoes and wild leeks were excellent dishes for eggs. When she returned, she walked towards the reed marsh by the river to see if she could find some wild duck eggs.
When everyone was talking and laughing, the bird that had been silent suddenly pulled Lin Shu's clothes: "It's very dangerous ahead, don't go."
Hearing this, Lin Shu became alert and hurriedly booed everyone to keep quiet. She took out the stone knife and looked forward with caution: "What have you seen? Where are the wild beasts?"
The bird whispered, "It's not a wild beast, it's a devil fruit."
"Devil Fruit?" Lin Shu breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that it was not a wild beast, and was also curious about what this Devil Fruit was.
The bird pointed his hand at a thick tree in the woods ahead, with many thorny fruits hanging on it, like countless huge landmines: "Look, that's the devil fruit."
Lin Shu looked in the direction of her finger, and her eyes were stunned: "Durian? Is there durian here?"
Durian is a good thing, and Lin Shu’s favorite fruit is durian.
Thinking of the soft, sweet and soft texture of durian, Lin Shu sucked her saliva and walked towards the durian tree with her eyes radiating.
Feiniao grabbed Lin Shu's neck of clothes again: "Dangerous, don't go."
"That fruit will kill people after falling." Feiniao's face was full of anxiety and fear.
"It's okay, they're just starting to get familiar with each other at this time and won't fall off. I'll just pay attention." Lin Shu touched Feiniao's arm comfortably, reassuring her.
"This is a delicious fruit." Lin Shu was still worried when she saw Fei Bird, so she blinked at her and walked towards the durian tree.
Lin Shu walked carefully under the tree, and avoided the hanging fruits on the side of caution.She moved her limbs and began to climb the durian tree.
Climbing trees is Lin Shu’s little hobby in modern times.
The orphanage she lived in when she was a child was halfway up the mountain, with good greenery and lush trees.When she was fine, she would sneak up on the big tree branch and squat, covering her body with the branches and leaves.Seeing people coming and going under the tree, there is a magical experience of being a god who looks down on all living beings.
Lin Shu carefully stepped on the bulge on the trunk, hugged the trunk and climbed up little by little. When she arrived on the branch safely, she took out the stone knife she carried with her and knocked on the durian closest to her.
By tapping, she could tell whether the durian was mature. She tapped each one carefully, carefully identified the raw and mature ones, and finally picked out two more mature durians.
Using a stone knife, he tried hard to cut off the stems of the durian fruit connecting the trunk. Lin Shu carefully threw the durian to the ground, and then slowly got down the tree.
She picked up the durian fruit that fell on the ground. The tightly wrapped durian fruit that was originally wrapped in the shell was smashed into pieces and a strong and special durian fruit fragrance spread out.
Lin Shu carried a durian fruit in one hand and returned to the place where Feiniao and the others stayed.
As soon as they approached, the people in the team frowned and covered their noses, showing an unbearable look: "Lin Shu, this devil fruit is terrible and smelly, how can it be eaten? You should throw them away."
"This fruit is called durian. I feel a little uncomfortable when I smell it at first. In fact, it doesn't smell, but it's a very strange fruity fragrance."
Lin Shu put down the durian from afar, and used a stone knife to pry open the thick shell of the durian, revealing the golden flesh inside.
The round golden pulp looked much easier to accept than the terrible shell, and everyone began to believe that this thing might indeed be eaten, but the rich and strange fruity aroma was still deterred.
Lin Shu didn't say nonsense, and took out a piece of flesh and started eating it.
After taking a bite, his mouth was filled with sweet and soft flesh. This was the ripe durian on the tree, which tasted very fresh and delicious. Lin Shu's eyes were narrowed happily.
Ye Zi is a very brave girl. Seeing Lin Shu's appearance, she was also very excited.
She slowly walked towards Lin Shu. As Lin Shu said, this strange fruit called durian was a stinky smell when she smelled it for a while, but after she smelled it for a long time, she gradually discovered a strange fragrance.
"Do you want to try it too? It's delicious?" Lin Shu picked up a piece of durian meat and handed it to Ye Zi and encouraged her.
Ye Zi carefully took the strange flesh and started with heavy but very soft.She calmed down, as if she had completed some kind of challenge, and took the first bite with her face firmly.
Others were also watching the situation here at all times. They looked at Ye Zi's expression nervously, trying to use this to judge how this fruit was.
"Um!" Ye Zi's eyes widened.
Lin Shu asked expectantly: "How is it?"
Before Ye Zi could speak, she took a big bite of the flesh and hurriedly said, "It's delicious!"
Lin Shu felt relieved and smiled at the other people watching from a distance, saying, "Do you want to try it too?"
Seeing Ye Zi, he admitted that the fruit was delicious, and the others did not resist as much as they were at the beginning. They began to get closer and stood in a circle around the durian.
Lin Shu broke the remaining several fruit shells, revealing a golden pulp, allowing everyone to choose and taste it at will.
Everyone mustered up the courage to try it, but the durian does vary from person to person. Some people can accept it, while others can't accept it no matter what.
For example, Feiniao is the type of person who cannot accept no matter what. Lin Shu doesn't force it and enjoy the whole durian with other people who can accept it.
Lin Shu put the remaining durian into a basket and planned to take it back for the rest of the tribe to taste it.
Everyone moved towards the original route again and towards the reed marsh on the river bank.
As expected, there were many wild ducks and water birds living here in the reed marsh, and the movements of people approaching shocked countless birds.
"There must be wild duck eggs here, let's find them together." Lin Shu said happily.
She bent down and pushed apart the dense reeds, and soon she found a nest of warm wild duck eggs as she wished.
It seems that the duck mother was still hatching eggs here just now, and they were the ones who disturbed the duck mother.
Lin Shu clasped her hands together and said silently: "I'm sorry."
Then he quickly took out a bunch of duck eggs without changing his face, and there was no hair left.
The mother duck who was hiding from afar and watching here: I believe you, a ghost...
