Chapter 119: Cut off the head first

The rest are small and shriveled beings who, from the outside, do not appear to be healthy.

However, after all, it is a gift from nature. What is there to dislike about pure natural and pollution-free products?

Si Ningning did not refuse anyone who came, and gently picked off the dead branches and soil at the bottom of the bamboo fungus, and then put the bamboo fungus into a bamboo basket.

Within half an hour, the small basket was filled with more than a dozen bamboo fungus flowers, and the bottom layer was completely occupied by bamboo fungus. Si Ningning shook the basket, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and half-crouched forward to search for them.

As expected, Si Ningning once again found the small bulge that held up the dead bamboo leaves. Si Ningning came closer and was about to fiddle with the branch in his hand when the bulge suddenly trembled slightly twice.

This movement was so startling that Si Ningning sat back on the ground and stopped breathing for a moment. Was it a snake? then what?

 All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind. Before fear could arise in his heart, Si Ningning had already clearly seen what was poking out from the bamboo leaves.

“Huo, Huo Lang!”

It was too late, but it was soon. Si Ningning quickly reached out with the tree branch in his hand and held down the thing. He turned around and shouted Huo Lang's name with both joy and nervousness.

She made quite a movement, and she was sitting on the ground. Huo Lang thought something had happened to her, so he immediately let go of the half-cut bamboo and walked towards Si Ningning with a hatchet in hand.

When he reached Si Ningning, Huo Lang was stunned, "That's it?"

“Hedgehog!” Si Ningning’s face turned red and she couldn’t hide her excitement. She turned back to look at the little thorny ball that she was pressing with a branch.

Because he was frightened, the hedgehog had balled up into an oval ball. If you look a little closer, you can see two little pink paws holding its head from the outside. It's so cute.

When I was a child, I could occasionally see weasels in the manor, and I once saw wild snakes and egrets at my grandma’s house.

This is the first time she has seen a wild hedgehog.

Si Ningning was surprised to see it, and unconsciously grinned extremely happily. Huo Lang looked down at the girl who was focusing on the hedgehog. He didn't quite understand what was so funny about just a hedgehog.

Still smiling so brightly?

Are you hungry for meat?

Hourang squatted on one knee beside Si Ningning and turned the hedgehog upside down with a hatchet. He tilted his head back slightly and looked sideways at Si Ningning. "If you want, I can help you handle it and keep it confidential."

"Hmm..." Si Ningning shook her head and looked at Huo Lang in confusion. When he looked at him, her eyes were bright and her smile had not faded, "What?"

"From here." Huo Lang raised his chin and pointed Si Ningning to look at the hedgehog. He made random gestures on the hedgehog with the hatchet in his hand, "Cut off the head, make a small incision here, and peel off the skin."

Si Ningning:! …?

What the hell! A hedgehog is not a rabbit, so why cut off its head and peel off its skin? Want to eat?

“It’s better not to use it yet.”

Si Ningning’s face turned green, and she shook her hands to fly the hedgehog away.

The hedgehog rolled forward along the ground for a while, as if it sensed the danger. After being freed from restraints, the hedgehog quickly stretched out its four small claws, played with them quickly, and soon disappeared into the bamboo leaves.

Seeing this scene, Si Ningning felt slightly relieved. Suddenly, Huo Lang asked: "Don't you want to eat it? Why did you let it go?"

His voice was deep and strong, and his serious look made Si Ningning not know whether to be angry or laughing. Finally, he puffed up his cheeks and said angrily:

“I, when did I say I wanted to eat it! It, it looks round and fleshy, but it’s only a little bigger than the palm of my hand. What’s left after the skin is removed?”
