Chapter 870: Swallowed Alone (3 updates

Old friends go back to do business first. The young men of Roberto Ferrari’s family went to the farm and ranch to dig truffles. Milo and Le’s classmates stopped going to the farm and ranch. Instead, head to the wild forest.

Travelers do not need to pay to dig truffles in the forest. Anyway, truffles grow in the soil. Without dogs and pigs looking for truffles, humans would not be able to find them. , tourists who want to experience truffle digging must rent or buy a truffle hunting dog, which also increases the income of local people.

Like the local truffle hunters, Miró drove outside the forest and parked his car. In the wilderness, go into the forest with your children.

During the season when truffles are ripe, many local residents and tourists flock to the forest to find them. The usually silent forest becomes more popular in autumn and early winter. I heard It is not strange to hear voices, cheers or barking dogs here and there in the forest.

Le Yun and Milo set out not very early or too late, the forest was already Someone took a dog to look for truffles, and the two walked further into the forest. They smelled truffles nearby and dug them out.

Truffles need truffle spores, so there are certain rules for where they grow, somewhere. The growth of truffles proves that there are truffle strains nearby, and truffles will also grow in the nearby area in the future. If a truffle hunter finds truffles somewhere in the previous year, searching for them again the next year will generally not be in vain.

Because there are certain patterns in the growth spots of truffles, any place where truffles have been found is basically remembered by people, so you can see excavated places everywhere in the forest.

Digging truffles every year is equivalent to giving land Loosening the soil has certain benefits for forests, farms and pastures to a certain extent, but it also has certain disadvantages. If the backfilling is not timely, it will easily cause soil erosion in places with slopes. Truffle hunters make money by digging truffles, which is very important for resources. Cherish it and dig out the truffles yourself and backfill them, otherwise the forest will be riddled with holes and it will be terrible

In order not to rob the local indigenous people of their financial resources and be hated by the locals, Le Yun is very sensible and follows the rules. Following the smell, he tried his best to dig into the more remote places where truffles grow. He found a place that few people set foot on and started digging happily.

Milo followed the children and hid in the forest for a long time. He once again I looked up to the sky completely speechless. Didn’t I say we were digging for truffles? Why does Xiao Lele always dig other plants?

Every time when he dug out the truffles she found, he saw her squatting somewhere She waved her hoe happily and ran over to help. She was often seen digging the roots of certain trees or vines, as well as the roots of herbaceous plants. What about truffles, or are they actually digging for medicinal materials?

During the lunch break to eat dry food, Milo looked at the harvest and sighed silently. He had dug a lot, but Xiao Lele only dug a few pieces of truffles and bags. insideStuffed with some plant stems, he was embarrassed to ask why.

Fortunately, after the afternoon, Xiao Lele probably realized that her harvest was a bit small. She was more serious. Although she also dug grass roots and plants, the frequency was less. She spent more time digging for truffles until the afternoon. At six o'clock, the light in the forest was not very good, so the two of them retreated, digging while retreating.

When the two of them withdrew from the forest and found a parking place, it was dark, and the cars parked everywhere in the forest were nowhere to be seen. Their car was parked alone in the wilderness, which was extremely pitiful.

The big one and the small one climbed into the car smoothly and returned to the castle in a hurry, while Roberto and Amedeo went out for the day, finishing work at 6:30 in the evening and waiting eagerly. They waited until eight o'clock to see the two of them rushing back in the dark. Roberto was worried about the little girl's safety and couldn't talk to the little guy. He grabbed his godson Milo and lectured him for a while.

The old gentleman was giving an ideological education class to the handsome boy Milo. It was like the scene where he was caught by the professor and lectured. Little classmate Le was so happy that he was laughing beside him.

Roberto lectured for a while, but was left speechless by Milo’s smiling face, and the ideological education came to nothing. Looking at their harvest, it was shocking to find that their harvest from digging truffles in the wild was better than that from farming and animal husbandry. There are still many digs in the field, and the expressions of Amedeo and the owner's big dog who are obsessed with oriental girls are very frustrated.

The truffle-hunting dog is very sad. He has worked hard all day and gained too little, so the human girl does not need him to work and has no chance to be friends with the human girl!

Xuanzao arrived in Tuscany town on the afternoon of the 9th. Little Loli’s mobile phone was turned off and could not be contacted. They stayed at the booked B&B, visited the town’s truffle museum, and visited the truffle trading street. Taste truffle delicacies and occasionally interact with diners from around the world.

Because of the exchange, Mr. Xuan got acquainted with a wealthy Chinese-American foodie businessman who lived in the country M. The wealthy businessman was originally from Jiangnan, and his surname was Xu. He was middle-aged and had a big belly. Xu Fu lived there. From New York in country M, I flew halfway across the world to Europe to dig and taste truffles.

Listening to Fu Shang Xu complaining that truffles are difficult to dig and the harvest is meager, Mr. The truffle man’s harvest is about the same.

Because I met my close friend in a foreign country, we had dinner together in the evening and went for a walk before returning to our respective homes. Mr. Xuan returned to his host’s house and received a message from Le Xiaololi at around nine o’clock. Asked where he was, he quickly replied that he had arrived in Tuscany Town. After chatting for a few words, the little Loli promised to take him to dig truffles tomorrow. Master Xuan was so happy that he made an appointment and excitedly informed the young man of the family. , sleeping with mobile phone in hand.

The next day, the Xuanjia youths got up early and ran to have breakfast. After that, Mr. Xuan took five of his entourage and drove to the place designated by Little Lolita.

They rushed to the outside of the town and waited at the intersection leading to a certain castle. When it was about seven o'clock, little girl Le came over in the car of a handsome foreign man. The little girl in the passenger seat was affected by her smile and her mood became better.

Milo drove the car to the car of the young people from China and parked it. He got out of the car and greeted the young people: "Hello, friends of Xiao Lele, welcome to Tuscany. "

"Huh?" The young man from Xuanjia looked at the handsome foreigner who spoke fluent Chinese in surprise, and replied unanimously "Hello, please take care of me." Mr. Xuan shook hands with the handsome foreigner: "Friend, you "I speak Chinese so well that I almost thought I was a foreigner."

"I have a godfather who loves Chinese culture and a lovely Chinese child. No matter how bad I speak Chinese, I can I jumped into the Yellow River in shame." Milo happily shook hands with Xiao Lele's friend and introduced himself.

The young man from the Xuan family was amused by the handsome boy. Mr. Xuan also introduced himself and smiled at the handsome boy and the little loli: "Little beauty, your local friend is Huaxia Tong. Now you don't have to worry about finding truffles. We have reached the end of the field, please ask handsome Milo to lead the way and take us to dig for truffles."

"When it comes to digging for truffles, I am the worker, and Xiao Lele is the one who leads the way. Friends, let's go "Let's dig truffles. Let's go to the mountains and talk about truffles. If we go late, we will miss one or two truffles, which is a big loss." After Xiao Lele's friend is a noble, he doesn't stick to trivial details, and Milo doesn't have to be afraid. Hui, urge people to get on the bus.

Xuan Shao wanted to go to the forest to dig truffles immediately. He readily agreed and hurriedly climbed into the car and let the handsome foreign man lead the way. They followed closely.

Handsome Milo and Mr. Xuan got to know each other in just a few words. They were more familiar with each other than they were with each other. It was easier for Le Yun. There was no need to introduce them to each other, but it was a bit strange. The world of men seemed like men. It is easy for them to find common topics and become friends more easily than women.

In order to dig truffles properly, Milo did not take the same route into the forest yesterday, but entered the forest at a different place. He still left the car in the wilderness outside the forest. A group of people were carrying their own backpacks and bags containing tools. , rushed into the forest with extraordinary momentum, and had friendly exchanges while walking.

The young men were chatting, and Leyun turned on her sense of smell to focus on her career. Not long after walking into the forest, she found a truffle that could be dug, and let the handsome young men start work.

Mr. Xuan was so excited that he snatched away his job as a hard laborer. He swung the hoe and dug vigorously until he dug about twenty centimeters before he dug slowly. He dug a lump twenty-five centimeters into the soil. , as big as a goose egg, dug it out, and happily offered the treasure: "Little beauty, I dug it, I dug a truffle."

"Hmm, it's pretty awesome, a good start. I give this to you as a gift." Le Yun praised Young Master Xuan seriously, smiling like a fox: "It's agreed, you dig up five truffles and share one truffle, four are mine, and handsome guy Milo also shares the same proportion."

"No problem." The Xuanjia youths were excited. Rub your palms, you get one out of five, right? The more you dig, the more you share. This is fair.

Xiao Lele treated everyone equally, while Milo smiled brightly beside him.

Mr. Xuan harvested his first white truffle. He felt so beautiful that he wanted to fly. He took a photo, removed the soil, put it in a bag and put it in his backpack. This is his own, and he must be alone. collect.

A group of eight people set off again, walking more than ten meters away, the little loli found another one, and it was dug by the handsome guy Milo. They walked again, found it and let the Xuanjia youth dig it, found it again and let the handsome guy Milo dig it. Digging, one for you and one for him, very fair.

Walking all the way deep into the forest, searching and searching, I stopped and walked for more than two hours and stayed away from places frequented by truffle hunters to start a formal search.

Milo is only one person, so he can’t always keep Lele waiting. He doesn’t mind letting the Xuanjia youth share his interests, so that little Lele doesn’t have to be fair and can call whoever is free. Digging, therefore, the handsome young men of Xuanjia also have a lot of work. Of course, they are not unreasonable people. When the handsome guy Milo has a truffle, they go to pick up the work. After the handsome guy Milo has dug a truffle, he is free. Xiao Luo The truffles Li found were dug by handsome Milo first, and they waited for the next opportunity.

The handsome guys are courteous to each other and get along extremely happily. No one competes for opportunities to dig more truffles. They work hard and actively, and their friendship is warming up.

The seven handsome guys followed the little Lolita in the woods with oaks, pine trees and miscellaneous trees. They worked hard for a long time and got a rich harvest. Just as the saying goes, "There is strength in numbers." Loli basically doesn't have to sit idle, so the results are many times more powerful than Milo's alone as a hard worker.

Following the little Lolita to dig truffles, the Xuanjia youths were in great spirits. They led the truffle-hunting dogs all over the country in F. After working hard for several days, they might as well have followed the Little Lolita. Li gained a lot after running for a long time. If other people saw this, they would probably collectively want to snatch the little Loli as a guide to find truffles.

Mr. Xuan was so excited by the joy of the victory that he was more excited than taking a chicken blood shot. Even eating some dry food at noon felt like a waste of time.

After eating solid food, she continued to work. After working for an hour or so, Le Yun seemed to be floating when she walked, with a smile on her face that looked like a peony. Milo noticed something strange and touched her little head. , asked curiously: "Xiao Lele, have you made a new discovery, or were you accidentally stimulated by a plant?"

"Oh, Milo noticed it," Le Yun squinted. He smiled so hard that he couldn't see his teeth: "The place I told you yesterday is almost here. I have a hunch that if nothing happens, we will make a lot of money."

"You said yesterday that there was a strong smell of truffles in a certain direction. The specific location is not far away, right?" Milo understood instantly. Tomorrow, Xiao Lele said that the smell of truffles was very strong in a certain direction, so today he Just cut the road and go in a certain direction that Xiao Lele said yesterday.

"Are there many, many truffles somewhere?" When Mr. Xuan heard the good news, he swooped over to the little Loli, his eyes brighter than a hundred-watt light bulb.

"Theoretically yes, but because the smell is mixed with the smell of a certain plant, I am not sure whether the quality of the truffles grown in that place has been affected. If the truffles are affected by a certain The influence of some plants can only be used to make certain intoxicants and cannot be used as food."

"Well, whether it is used for medicine or food, it is a joy to dig truffles. "Xuan Shaocai, whether it is for food or medicine, as long as it can be used, it will not be wasted.

Milo also agreed with Master Xuan’s words, whether it is for making medicinal materials or seasonings, as long as it can be used.

The handsome guys are so excited, Leyun is even happier, moving towards the goal, moving forward..., while moving forward, sweeping up the truffles.

Thinking that there may be huge gains ahead, the seven handsome guys are in high spirits. They are more excited than winning a million-dollar jackpot. They work harder to dig truffles, and they look forward to arriving early.

As she got closer and closer to her target, Le Yun became more and more confused. Based on the smell, there were people near that place, and there were quite a few of them. What should I do if they wanted to steal her business?

The truffles in Yi country are produced in the Yanin Mountains. The town of Tuscany is a section of the Yanin Mountains. Due to the topography and geography, it produces the most abundant truffles. There are often accidents in the mountains and forests. Where truffles are found, many places have been dug up or have traces of humans.

A flat area between the mountains is covered with coniferous and broad-leaved plants such as pine and oak trees, mixed with some thorns, shrubs, herbs and other plants. There are few dwarf vines or wild flowers and weeds under the trees. The dwarf vegetation also has the appearance of truffles, but no one has ever dug truffles. Strangely enough, no matter whether the truffle-hunting dogs or pigs are excited when they come nearby, they can't find truffles after searching for them. Left frustrated.

No one was disturbing, and it was quite peaceful in the small forest. However, it did not mean that it would always be peaceful. When a truffle hunter with a truffle pig came nearby, his truffle pig rushed excitedly. Entering the woods, sniffing here and there, shaking your head excitedly, jumping up and down, as excited as dancing.

The pig did not move away and did not dig up the ground. The truffle hunter did not care about anything at all. He tried to urge the pig to move away, but he ignored it and even howled and cheered like an out-of-control wild horse.

The howling sound also attracted nearby truffle diggers and truffle hunting dogs to come and watch, and soon three or four groups of people gathered.When they got there, they saw a big black sow dancing excitedly, and the dogs they brought were also very excited. They put their noses to the ground, turned around and around, and barked, but they didn't show any signs. Truffles.

　“What’s going on?”

　“What the hell.”

　“Man, what happened?”

> The truffle pigs are jumping around and the truffle dogs are barking excitedly. You ask me and I ask you about the truffle hunters, but no one can explain the reason.

Just when everyone was confused, another pig came nearby with a truffle hunt. The pig howled happily and rushed into the woods. It was a white pig with snow-white hair.

Just as the white pig rushed into the woods, the black pig, who was having fun, roared, raised its ears at the white pig, and grinned fiercely.

When the white pig saw it, it also howled and bared its teeth, and the two pigs faced each other.

When the owner saw this, he wanted to take the truffle-seeking pig away, but the pig roared and ignored him. The black pig even screamed angrily and rushed towards the white pig.

When the owners of the two pigs saw this, they quickly jumped away. The owners of the truffle-hunting dogs were afraid that the dogs would fight, so they forcibly pulled the dogs back to them.

The black pig rushed towards the white pig, and the white pig also scratched its hooves and rushed towards the black pig. The two sows showed their fierceness like a bullfight. They each ran for more than ten steps. When they collided, you bit me and I bit you. Tear and beat.

When cows fight, they use their horns to butt and hit each other, and they kick with their hind hooves. Pigs fight with their mouths and brute force. They bump into each other with their shoulders and bite each other. The two pigs look like enemies. Biting and colliding, each of them soon lost their fortune.

The owner of the pigs was anxious and had no way to stop the fight. He could only call their names and try to get them to separate. However, it was of no use at all. They should be beaten anyway.

The dogs barked more and more excitedly, barking together, and the two pigs fought more and more fiercely.

The owner of the pig and the owner of the dog were shouting and asking each other what was going on. The dog just barked at first, and after a while it seemed to mean that it would rush out and fight. The dog owners used milk to feed them. They tried to drag the dog away with force, but the dog refused to go, so they could only hold the dog back to prevent them from fighting.

The small forest instantly became lively.

The squealing of pigs and the barking of dogs came one by one. Leyun was stunned. Don't tell her that those guys were fighting in that place!

"Is there a wild boar?" Hearing the roar of pigs, the Xuanjia young man was extremely curious. If he encountered a wild boar, could he kill it and carry it back to make a delicious meal?

　“I have never seen wild boars outside the forests near villages and towns, but there are wild boars in the depths of the forest.” Milo took advantage of the local people and replied to the Eastern guests

“Little beauty, it seems to be very lively, should we go and take a look?” Mr.

"Well, go ahead, let's join in the fun." The handsome guys wanted to find out, but Le Yun didn't object and ran away.

The little guy ran away, what are you waiting for? The seven handsome guys greased the soles of their feet in unison and ran along.

The eight people burrowed through the woods, bypassing some dense trees and thorns, climbed over a small slope, then went down another slope, ran for about half a mile, and bypassed some trees. Find where the pigs bark and the dogs bark.

The war is raging, the two pigs are biting with blood, the dogs have become uncontrollable, the owner is crazy, and has no idea what the hell is going on. When he sees a group of oriental faces There are so many people coming here, so there is no time to care about their existence.

Milo asked in pure Italian with local colloquialism: "Oh, my God, why are they fighting? What happened?"

　“Ah, what the hell, we don’t know why, they start fighting as soon as they meet.”

　“What the hell, it’s like this for no apparent reason.”

"Our dogs don't obey orders either."

The owners of five dogs, the owners of two pigs, and the people digging truffles together, a total of twelve men and women, you say something to me, The chatter was accompanied by words to comfort the dog and shouts to tell the dog to hurry up and stop fighting.

The Xuanjia youths looked at the little Loli with question marks on their faces. She crossed her chest with one hand and touched her chin with the other. Her little brows were furrowed together, obviously deep in thought.

Milo couldn't figure out the reason, so he asked his children: "Xiao Lele, why do they fight?"

"It has something to do with the plants nearby," Le Yun He explained with a grimace: "There is wild hyoscyamus in this forest. There is a certain poisonous plant in the Solanaceae family here. Animals have received hyoscyamus and then smelled the smell of Solanaceae plants here, and their brains have been affected. , produce a strong sense of excitement and hallucinations. The nature of animals prompts them to regard the same sex as love rivals, and fighting is out of animal instinct."

"Oh, God, how could this happen? What's going on?"

"Now we're in trouble."

"God, what now?"

The truffle-hunting pig and the dog The masters understood what the girl said and were at a loss what to do.

Milo spread his hands, expressing that he was helpless.

The Xuanjia youths didn’t understand Italian and didn’t know what the little beauty said. They could guess that it must have something to do with plants. They kept their faces high.Deep shape.

Le Yun looked at the person who was holding the dog in a panic, squeaking at the corner of her mouth, took off her backpack, dug out the sealed small backpack containing her belongings, and took out a bag of only four pills. Take out one, cut it into half pieces, put the rest in it, crush the pieces, put it in the palm of your hand and let the aroma spread.

The aroma of the pills is rich and elegant, and the irritability that makes people feel dissipated after smelling it. The frantic dogs are also much quieter, and the two fighting pigs are not as fierce as they were at the beginning.

"My kind of fragrance can only temporarily wake up the animals. Gentlemen and ladies, please take your pinehounds and stay away, at least three kilometers away. The nightshade plants here are not good for animals, and humans will stay away." After a long time, the brain will also produce a sense of excitement, and dizziness and vomiting will occur later. Stay away from here, and the animals will be depressed and tired after their brains wake up, and they may not have the energy to look for truffles again."

The dogs were quiet. Somehow, in order to completely solve the trouble, Le Yun simply persuaded people to leave. She just ordered the medicine, and it was impossible to give one portion to each person. Letting them go was the real way to solve the source of the trouble.

"Ah, okay, let's leave." The person holding the pineapple dog immediately pulled the dog away, even if the dog was unwilling, he dragged and pulled him, coaxed and comforted him, and led him away. Keep your dog away from harmful plants.

The owners of the two pigs were also busy calling their truffle-seeking pigs. The two pigs fought for a while, until they were panting and fell down from exhaustion within a few minutes.

The owner hurried over and put a rope on the pig. He didn’t care about the wounds on the pig’s body. He dragged the pig away, pulled it hard, and spent all his strength to drag the pig by force. and leave.

The Xuanjia youth stared at it, oh my god, the picture is very funny, isn’t it?

The hilarious scene lasted for about ten minutes. Pigs and dogs dragged people out of a forest where the ground had never been disturbed, even if the dogs wanted to look back. Resolutely refusing to let go, he dragged the pig further and further away. The owner of the pig walked very slowly and took a long time to get away from the place where they were fighting. He also dragged the pig away by force.

The truffle hunter walked far away, so far away that he could not hear the sound of voices and footsteps. Mr. Xuan followed the little Lolita like a curious baby: "Little beauty, you just told them What?”

“I told them that their truffle-hunting dogs and truffle-hunting pigs were stimulated by the smell of poisonous plants, and their brains had hallucinations, so they fought.” Le Yun walked towards a solanaceous plant. Plants, she wasn't lying. There were really many nightshade plants growing around. They were a type of datura and were not as toxic as datura.

There is also a plant called Mandala, which is the same word as Mandala. It is a kind of camellia, which is originally an auspicious flower in Buddhism. However, its fragrance is different from that of other plants. Mixing them together can also create hallucinations in humans and animals.The effect of sleep.

　“Oh, will something happen if someone smells it?”

　“Yes, it will also cause poisoning if you smell it for a long time.”

　“ Little beauty, let’s evacuate quickly.” It’s poisonous, so let’s get out of here quickly.

“You don’t want truffles anymore?” Le Yun looked back with a smile: “This is the place I mentioned. There are many truffles buried in the soil.”

"Ah?" Mr. Xuan turned into a question mark in a second: "Is this where you are talking about? That person just now..." Oh, the little beauty has kidnapped everyone, she wants to take it all to herself!

“They don’t know, because the plants here can cause confusion in the brains of pine-hunting dogs and pine-hunting pigs, and confuse their sense of taste, so even if there are truffles under the feet of truffle hunters, they don’t know. "

Le Yun smiled slyly, took out the bag of pills stuffed in her backpack, cut open the pills, and gave half a pill to each of the handsome guys: "This is an antidote pill to prevent the smell of plants here. Eat and get to work quickly."

"Okay." Hearing that there were truffles in the forest, the handsome guys took the pills and ate them, carrying their hoes with bright eyes, ready to Have a blast.

Le Yun took office, took the handsome guys to a place to dig down, and then marked out the area for him. Then he went to another place to determine the location, and marked out the location for each of the seven handsome boys. respective excavation areas.

The areas she designated for the handsome guys were very particular, avoiding places where solanaceous plants grow. In fact, even if there are truffles between the roots of solanaceous plants, there is no big problem at most. Some ingredients are heavier. Considering safety issues, Le Xiao's students still choose to give up those truffles that grow in the root zone of plants. People can't be too greedy. If you give up, you will get something.

Determine a location for the handsome guys to dig truffles. Classmate Le cut a few slits in several trees, installed membranes to collect the sap, and then told them to collect medicinal materials by themselves and carry the tools to other places. place.

Bypassing a solanaceous plant, she ran to a place forty or fifty meters away from the handsome guys. She first cut holes in several trees to collect sap, then dug for truffles and some plants. piece.
