Chapter 85 (1/2)

”What's on it? There will be neither animals nor wild vegetables. I suggest not to go up except for a few trees, that is, silt. ” The sea monster said disapprovingly.

Shack thought so deeply and said with a smile, ”when I was a child, these islands were still larger. We often came up to play and explore. We called these islands in the lake 'pirate nests', but every time we got nothing but mud.”

”Maybe you can find the buried treasure on it.” Qin Shiou said that he supported the fishing ground to the shore, tried it, the ground had dried up, no problem, so he jumped off the boat and went to the island.

Shaq and the sea monster looked at each other and felt a little excited. Yes, what if they could find the ”treasure” buried on it in their childhood?

Most of the trees that can survive on this island are Metasequoia, Cishan and willows. These trees are rooted in the soil. Their trunks are tilted, tall and straight, or graceful and low. They are graceful and have a bit of abstract beauty.

To Qin Shiou's surprise, these trees have survived in the water for a long time, and many places have changed. For example, their roots have become bright water red!

Shaq and the sea monster said that there was nothing here. At least there were many small fish, shrimp and freshwater crabs hiding along the coast. The long-term fallen leaves and rotten roots provided rich nutrition for these small aquatic creatures and attracted them to come and inhabit.

In addition, the island has become a resting place for birds. They fish in the lake and stay here when they are tired. There are more than 100 trees on the shore, and almost every tree has more than one bird's nest.

In this way, birds defecate around the island. Bird droppings are also nutritious food for fish, which makes more fish around the island.

Qin Shiou opened some rotten leaves on the bank and found that several North American pikes, inland herring and small lying fish fled in panic.

It's pathetic to say that these fish were once the owners of Chenbao lake. Now they are forced by Asian carp and can only run to the shore to find living space.

”Alas, there is a lot less water and grass in the lake. Asian carp can eat too much. If you eat like this, sooner or later there will be no grass in the lake, and there will be no fish at that time.” Shaq said dejectedly after watching it on the shore for a while.

Qin Shiou shrugged and said, ”otherwise, let's make a donation in the town, buy water and grass seeds and plant them in Chenbao lake, just like I plant seaweed in the fishing ground.”

Last time, he bought a lot of grass seeds and seaweed species, but they were all aimed at the ocean and could not grow in fresh water.

In North America, greening and environmental protection have always been hot topics, and it is quite expensive to do this. Chenbao lake covers an area of 890 square kilometers. If aquatic plants are planted in a large area, it needs at least 50000 yuan of seeds.

The economic situation of the people who bid farewell to the town is not very good. 50000 yuan, even part of it, is a great pressure. This idea is doomed to fail, because Canadians will find the government for something, especially Chenbao lake is still a public place.

After walking around the island, it is estimated that no one has ever been here. The birds that inhabit build their nests very casually. Qin Shiou walks to a crooked neck willow tree. There is a nest just a little higher than his head.

As soon as Qin Shiou approached, a large bird fluttered in the nest. Its feathers were gray and black. It was a common North American river black in Canada.

The big bird ran away, and there were four eggs smaller than the eggs in the nest. Qin Shiou looked at them in his hand and found that the eggs were still warm.

Seeing that his child was moved, the North American river black hovered and screamed over the island. It is estimated that Qin Shiou is not a thing.

Qin Shiou really wanted to make a bird egg fried with leek. It was delicious and strong Yang, but it was just an idea. He looked and put the bird egg back.

This trip to the island was not without harvest, because it was wet, especially at night, and there would be fog on Chenbao lake, so many fungi grew on the dead branches of the trees on the island. Qin Shiou recognized a fungus with gray umbrella cover and brown handle, which is very famous in his hometown, called Shanxiang mushroom.

Qin Shiou was very emotional about this fungus. When he was a child, the conditions in his family were not very good. He usually had no meat to eat. Generally, his mother will look among the old wood in the yard after the rain. She can find this kind of mountain mushroom. After frying it in oil, it is particularly fragrant and delicious than fat meat.

There are other mushrooms in the forest. Qin Shiou doesn't know them. Shaq and the sea monster know each other. They constantly introduce him: ”this is Brazilian mushroom, which can be eaten. This is Newfoundland straw mushroom, which tastes good; Oh, I've found Ontario red mushroom here before, which tastes more beautiful... ”

Qin Shiou took off his clothes and carefully picked some mushrooms and mushrooms that were sure to eat, especially mountain mushrooms. He found more, adding up to three or four kilograms.

”We can't eat so much, can we?” Shaq asked, what Canadians pick in the wild, whether fungi or berries, is enough, because that's the education they received since childhood.

Qin Shiou said, ”fry the fresh, and then dry the rest after I've oiled it. It tastes better.”

Fungi don't care about protection. As long as they leave hyphae, they leave seeds. If the humidity, temperature and light are appropriate, they will grow again. These things decay quickly. If Qin Shiou doesn't pick them, they will rot in a few days.

Shack and the sea monster admire Qin Shiou's cooking. They heard that it can make delicious food. They are more energetic than Qin Shiou. They divided into two ways to encircle the island and picked all the mushrooms they can find.
