Li Xiang thought about it, now there is no shortage of meat, it is better to soak in a bar.
This potential exotic beast will definitely be more effective when soaked in wine.
Red-chained snake medicinal wine has the effect of dispelling wind and cold, warming the meridians and relieving pain. The main active part should be the snake bones. Of course, snake meat and snake gall also have certain medicinal value.
Li Xiang took the three or four catties of red-chained snake to the stream, opened it, bled it, removed the excess internal organs, and naturally kept the snake gall. The scales were cleaned, and then washed with clear stream water, propped up with a small bamboo stick, and hung it under the eaves.
After it is dried, buy strong liquor to soak it.
Some people use live snakes to soak in wine for several years, but the snakes did not die. Instead, they were bitten by the snake when they opened the wine. Li Xiang will definitely not do such a thing.
Throwing a live snake into the wine, is it medicinal wine? It should be corpse water.
Li Xiang originally wanted to film the process of handling the red-banded snake and edit it into a short video, which might even bring in some traffic, but then he thought that this little thing is very likely to be a national protected animal, so he should not commit suicide.
While making dinner, Li Xiang took out a first-level exotic grass, the purple-gold giant matsutake, cut it into small pieces, and mixed it with the small mushrooms, big-foot mushrooms, and black truffles he had picked before. He had not finished eating the half basket of mushrooms he had picked before, which could be eaten for several meals.
It must be said that after adding the purple-gold giant matsutake, the chicken soup became more fragrant.
The system determined that the beasts were killed. In fact, because the system arrived early, these beasts had not yet mutated, but the rewards issued to the system warehouse were genuine exotic herbs.
Because he did not know the efficacy, Li Xiang only put one flower, fearing that if he put too much, his grandmother would not be able to take the tonic and would be harmful instead.
As night fell, after helping grandma to sleep, Li Xiang came to the front yard, stretched his feet and moved his body, performing physical skills, supplemented by a unique breathing method. This time he suddenly felt different, waves of heat surging in his body, and after being guided by the breathing method, it slowly turned into a stream of warm currents.
He found the feeling of the extraordinary realm in his previous life.
In his previous life, even though extraordinary particles emerged on the earth, it still took him a long time to step into the extraordinary realm, a full year and a half.
In this life, the breathing method had just begun, and in less than two minutes, extraordinary energy was born in his body.
It has to be said that it is a gratifying thing.
When Li Xiang got up the next morning and brought breakfast to grandma, he found that grandma's face was ruddy and her spirit was much better than before. It seems that the medicinal power of purple gold matsutake has taken effect.
"Grandma, I want to clean up the weeds in the backyard today." Li Xiang said.
Grandma is old, and she used to mainly move around in the front yard, which has a flat ground and a large vegetable garden. However, the backyard is close to the back mountain, with many rocks, weeds and trees, and has become like a primeval forest due to lack of care. The red-banded snake invaded yesterday because there were too many weeds in the backyard.
Li Xiang decided to renovate and expand the backyard, and then build a wall around it, which would be much safer. Moreover, the backyard is backed by a mountain, so it is more quiet and suitable for landscaping.
He chose a place with a good viewing angle and propped up his phone with a bracket. He planned to record the entire renovation process of the backyard.
Then he took out the whetstone and started sharpening the knife under the camera.
About ten minutes later, a hatchet and a sickle were sharpened to a bright shine, and the blades were shining coldly.
Li Xiang took the knife and stick and started working quickly. First, they used sticks to drive away the snakes, insects, rats and ants hiding inside, and then used sickles to harvest weeds. After the weeds were cleared, they began to chop trees with hatchets and piled them aside. When they dried, they could be used as firewood.
When they came across large or beautiful stones, they were collected. These stones would be useful in the future.
Two big yellow dogs also joined in, running around, making them busier than Li Xiang.
The pregnant old cat lay lazily on the roof. There was a persimmon tree in the backyard, which was full of fruits. The sun shone through the branches and leaves, and the light and shadows were mottled. The old cat lay in the light and shadows, enjoying the breeze.
Li Xiang was tired, so he climbed up the tree, found a slightly red persimmon that was within reach, picked it, tasted it, and found that it was still too hard and astringent, not yet ripe.
The life span of persimmon trees is very long, reaching more than 300 years. The persimmon tree in Li Xiang's home has been several meters high since he can remember. It is estimated that it has grown for more than 30 years. The leaves are large and the shade is thick. Every late autumn and early winter, the frosted leaves turn red. In the winter, after the leaves fall, the persimmons become deep red, but they still do not fall. The tree is full of red fruits.
If it snows again, the scenery is simply amazing.
When Li Xiang cleaned up and renovated the backyard, other trees would be cut down, but this persimmon tree would never be moved.
When the persimmons are ripe in winter, they are picked and dried to make persimmon cakes. A layer of sweet white frost will precipitate on them. It is a sugar alcohol substance secreted by the fruit itself. The more white frost, the higher the quality of the persimmon cake.
When Li Xiang worked in a big city, he did not dare to buy persimmon cakes, because when the unscrupulous vendors made persimmon cakes, they were in a hurry to go on the market and could not wait for the white frost to precipitate. In order to make them look good, they would sprinkle talcum powder to create a false impression of "more white frost, higher quality".
Eating too many persimmons can easily cause gastric stones, and adding talcum powder will make it even more serious.
Some people, for profit reasons, also advocate that talcum powder is not harmful to the body, but has certain medicinal value, and that moderate intake is good for the body. That is simply nonsense.
Talcum powder is sprinkled on persimmon cakes, sulfur is sprinkled on day lilies... Food safety is worrying, which is another reason why Li Xiang wants to go back to his hometown to farm.
At home, he at least eats healthily.
Because Li Xiang was busy, grandma cooked at noon, so Li Xiang did not put purple gold matsutake in the dishes. When it was time for dinner, Li Xiang came to cook again, so he fried a plate of mushrooms and shredded pork, cut the purple gold matsutake into slices, and mixed it with small mushrooms, big-foot mushrooms, and black matsutake. Grandma thought it was just ordinary mushrooms.
Because grandma is old and eats less, most of the dishes still went into Li Xiang's stomach.
Although the purple gold matsutake is a first-level exotic herb, it is actually very powerful. Li Xiang did not dare to let grandma eat too much. Anyway, with the system, there will be many opportunities to eat such good things in the future.
For an old person like grandma, it is best to do it in small amounts and multiple times.
After dinner, Li Xiang also tried to teach grandma some breathing techniques. Through breathing techniques, the medicinal power in the body can be refined.
But grandma tried it and felt it was too difficult, so she smiled and waved her hand and said that she was too old and didn't want to learn it. Li Xiang would naturally not force it.
Because many things are about talent and bones, it is really not easy to get started and unlikely to be effective for a person in his seventies. If you make a mistake in practice, it may cause bad consequences.
That night, under the moonlight, Li Xiang practiced breathing techniques again.
The air in the countryside at night was particularly fresh. He breathed at a specific mysterious frequency. His abdomen, lungs, and muscles all moved in a unique rhythm. Combined with physical training, after about half an hour, his body surface suddenly glowed.
