Chapter 205 - Old Cao the Show-off
“Oh my god, I envy you!” Cao Mingyuan's eyes flashed with envy.
In this dense mountain, Su Ming was only wearing shorts.
The others wore long pants to prevent mosquitoes from biting them. On the other hand, there were too many branches in the forest.
However, there were no scratches on Su Ming's legs, and he was not bitten by mosquitoes.
How could there be a person with such a physique like Su Ming?
Cao Mingyuan was very envious.
Su Ming was a welder, and overtime was a common thing for him.
Especially at night, when the light of welding lit up, the mosquitoes would gather.
If the welder wore too much, he would be so hot that he would sweat, which would affect his work efficiency.
If they wore too little, their arms would be bitten by mosquitoes.
If he had Su Ming's physique, he wouldn't have been bitten so badly.
Those who had gone to university were different.
They could talk to poisonous snakes and chase away mosquitoes.
Could it be that universities now taught these things?
This was too magical!
They walked for nearly 40 minutes before reaching the foot of the mountain.
At this time, there were already many people at the foot of the mountain.
These people were in groups of two or three, eating, resting, drinking, and replenishing their energy.
The reason why there were so many people was that the wild mushrooms here were very popular and delicious.
A catty of freshly picked mushrooms could be sold for more than 30 Yuan.
The better quality mushrooms could be sold for more than 50 yuan.
The dried mushrooms could even be sold for a few hundred yuan.
The harvesting period of these mushrooms was very short.
The best time to taste them was within these few days.
These mushroom pickers only needed to work hard on the mountain for a few days to earn a few thousand yuan.
This was also quite a high income.
Cao Mingyuan was very tired.
He sat on a big rock and panted.
Su Ming found it funny.
Cao Mingyuan was so tired that he probably couldn't show off anymore.
Su Ming did not give Cao Mingyuan the Body-stretching Pill to replenish his strength. It wasn't because Su Ming was stingy, but because he had forgotten.
He had really forgotten.
After all, Cao Mingyuan's appearance in the morning was too scary.
Su Ming had gotten up too early, and when he walked to the door, he was shocked by Cao Mingyuan's appearance.
With great difficulty, he resisted the urge to dig a hole in the courtyard, bury some soil, and plant Cao Mingyuan like a vegetable.
Su Ming thought for a moment and decided to give him the Body-stretching Pill when he returned.
Cao Mingyuan was his childhood friend, a good brother who grew up with him.
When Su Ming borrowed money to get married, Cao Mingyuan sold his motorcycle and borrowed money from several friends. In the end, he pooled fifty thousand yuan for him.
The two of them often quarreled, but they were very serious about their relationship.
After resting for a long time, Cao Mingyuan finally recovered his strength.
“Are you hungry? Try the mushroom noodles I made.” With that, Cao Mingyuan took the backpack from Su Ming.
He opened the backpack and found a small alcohol stove inside.
They were in a resting square at the foot of the mountain. There was no wind here. Since it had just rained last night, the air was very humid, so they could use the alcohol stove without worries.
Cao Mingyuan took out a small pot, a mini chopping board, and a knife.
He lit the alcohol stove and poured some water into the pot.
After the water boiled, he put the cleaned mushrooms in to boil.
Then he poured the water away and started to cook the noodles.
At first, Su Mingyuan didn't pay attention to Cao Mingyuan's movements. Instead, he looked at the mountain and thought about something.
Ever since he came here, he had a special feeling, but he couldn't explain it clearly.
What was going on?
Su Ming was thinking when he suddenly saw something out of the corner of his eye.
He saw Cao Mingyuan cut a mushroom into pieces and proficiently put it into the noodles.
Su Ming frowned slightly.
Something was wrong!
Why did this mushroom look so familiar?
Oh my god!
This mushroom was poisonous!
He had scanned it on the mountain before!
“You just put a poisonous mushroom in the noodles.” Su Ming hurriedly reminded him.
“What did you say?”
Cao Mingyuan was stunned, then smiled: “That's impossible, you can't recognize the poisonous mushroom. I'm a professional, I can't make a mistake.”
“Let me tell you, I won't eat these noodles. That really is a poisonous mushroom, don't regret it.”
Cao Mingyuan curled his lips. “It's fine if you don't want to eat them, but if you're hungry later, you won't have anything to eat.”
Su Ming blinked.
He scanned the mushrooms.
Poison Mushroom, Poison: Small
After seeing the results of the scan, Su Ming heaved a sigh of relief.
If these mushrooms were too poisonous, he couldn't let Cao Mingyuan eat them no matter what.
Since these mushrooms were not poisonous, Cao Mingyuan could eat them. After he ate them, he would at most have some hallucinations.
Su Ming planned to let Cao Mingyuan suffer a little and let him know how unreliable he was!
The noodles were cooked very quickly. Cao Mingyuan opened the seasoning bag and poured the sauce in.
“Are you sure you don't want to eat?”
“I don't want to eat!”
Su Ming was very firm.
“Then I won't be polite!”
Cao Mingyuan was really hungry.
He lowered his head and started to eat.
Not long after, he finished the bowl of soup and noodles.
“Old Su, have a taste.”
Su Ming shook his head.
“You should believe me. I can recognize poisonous mushrooms.”
Cao Mingyuan was very confident.
Su Ming insisted on not eating, so Cao Mingyuan had no choice.
He stood up and packed his things.
He prepared to take a nap on a rock nearby. Half an hour was enough for him to recover his strength.
Cao Mingyuan laid on the rock.
The breeze blew and the sun shone on his body. At this moment, he felt very comfortable.
“Darling!”
At this moment, Cao Mingyuan heard a particularly pleasant voice.
Cao Mingyuan opened his eyes and saw an especially beautiful girl.
“Miss, who are you?”
“How did you forget me? I'm your wife.”
“Is what you said true?”
“Why did you forget me so quickly? Do you not like me anymore?”
“Of course not. I like you the most. Let's kiss.”
Cao Mingyuan didn't think much of it, but the people resting around him looked at him in shock.
They saw Cao Mingyuan lying on the rock, hugging the air with his hands, and pouting.
“Darling, there are too many people here. It's not good for us to kiss here. Is this a bedroom?”
“This is not an empty space, but our bedroom.”
“Darling, your clothes don't look good. Go and change into the clothes I like.”
“Darling, come on!”
Everyone was dumbfounded, including Su Ming.
Usually, when Su Ming asked about Cao's girlfriend, Cao would say that he had never thought about having a girlfriend.
However, Cao Mingyuan could actually say such a thing.
It seemed that Cao Mingyuan had been single for a long time, which was why he had such an illusion.
Su Ming checked and found that Cao was fine.
He would be fine after being sent to the hospital for treatment.
Su Ming took out his phone and clicked on the video function.
They were surrounded by people from their village or the neighboring village.
Everyone took out their phones and started recording.
Su Ming thought, “Cao, I'm helping you. This way, you'll be famous. It'll be easier for you to find a wife in the future!”
If Cao Mingyuan knew about this, he would definitely scold Su Ming.
