Chapter 758: Eating Leaf Meat!

"Don't worry, this is not poisonous, I'm very sure."

As Zhang Qian said, he distributed the aloe leaves he cut with a dagger to Ding Yi, Wang Zhijun, and Wang Xiaoming.

Wang Zhijun took the aloe vera leaves, held it in his hand and looked carefully, then looked up at Zhang Qian, and asked Zhang Qian: "Qian, I have never heard of aloe vera that can be eaten. He will not say whether it is poisonous or not. Is this really something that can be eaten? How to eat it? Isn't it necessary to stir-fry it like cooking?"

Zhang Qian responded: "It's not that hard. Take a dagger to peel off the skin outside and eat the flesh inside directly. In fact, now our four bodies are seriously dehydrated. My aloe vera has very sufficient moisture, which is just used to replenish the moisture needed by our body."

As Zhang Qian said, he had already started to peel off the skin of an aloe vera leaf with a dagger.

Wang Xiaoming was very straightforward. After Zhang Qian explained the method, he cut it with a knife.

Qian Yi and Wang Zhijun looked at each other, and then Ding Yi said, "Okay, let's believe him first."

Zhang Qian's movements were very fast, but someone forced him to speed up, that was Wang Xiaoming.

Wang Xiaoming took half of the aloe vera liquid area, then took a dagger and cut it across it. I felt that I could cut off a piece of crystal clear aloe vera flesh like jelly with the dagger, and directly put it into my mouth.

Although Ding Yi and Wang Zhijun were cutting the skin of aloe vera leaves on the surface, they were both staring at Wang Xiaoming who had already started eating.

They wanted to determine whether this aloe vera leaf meat could really be eaten from Wang Xiaoming's expression.

However, Wang Xiaoming's expression was very dull. He did not have any extra expressions from the aloe vera and leaves until he chewed them. This made Ding Yi and Wang Zhijun unable to find anything from his micro-expression.

Before Ding Yi and Wang Zhijun asked Wang Xiaoming about the taste of aloe vera leaf meat, Zhang Qian had almost cut it. They saw Zhang Qian bite directly at the pulp of the aloe vera leaf, and his eating habits were very indecent.

Looking at Zhang Qian's invisible eating look, Ding Yi whispered to Wang Zhijun: "Looking at Zhang Qian's appearance, it seems that the aloe vera leaves are quite delicious. And the coconut meat is often lifted thoroughly, just like jelly. I guess he may be similar to jelly. I said it is very sweet, at least it will have some sweetness."

"No, it's not what you think. The meat of this aloe vera leaf actually has no taste and is not very delicious."

After Wang Xiaoming responded on the side, he cut a piece of leaf with a dagger and sent it to his mouth.

"It's not delicious, can you still eat?" Ding Yi asked Wang Xiaoming.

While stirring the meat of the aloe vera leaves, Wang Xiaoming responded: "Although the taste is indeed not very good, the moisture is really sufficient. Zhang Qian is right. We do need to replenish water now, so even if the taste is not very good, we still have to eat it."

Since Wang Xiaoming said so, and Wang Xiaoming and Zhang Qian have already demonstrated for them, Ding Yi and Wang Zhijun are not suspicious. Moreover, they are indeed very good now. The flesh of the aloe leaves in Xi'an can replenish them with moisture, so even if the taste is a little worse, it is not unacceptable.

So, like Zhang Qian, they opened their mouths and bite the aloe vera leaf meat that had been peeled out.

After taking a bite, the two of them found that the meat of the aloe vera leaves was indeed as Wang Xiaoming said. It tasted really not very good, but it was not that it was unacceptable.

At that time, each of them ate two leaf meats of aloe vera leaves, and there were three smaller aloe leaves left. Because there were not enough quantities, they did not continue to share this time, but chose to stay.

"Ding Yi is for you. If you have any injuries on your hands, just wipe it with aloe vera liquid first!" Zhang Qian handed one of the very small aloe vera leaves to Ding Yi.

Ding Yi was not too pretentious and directly reached out to take it. He did not remove the aloe vera leaves, but directly wiped it on his wound with the incision of the aloe vera leaves.

The advantage of doing this is that it is very free of aloe vera leaves. Ding Yi also thought that now they are in the mountains, and some bumps will inevitably occur. His aloe vera liquid has a great effect. If it is injured again, it can still be left to apply to the wound.

Although they all ate two aloe leaves, to be honest, the lack of water in their bodies was not replenished. They still felt very thirsty, but it was much better than before.

"Now, we can continue on the road and search for freshwater resources around us."

Wang Xiaoming stood up and said, "They have been resting for a while now and can't continue to stay here. After all, the remaining road is still long, and they do need to find water and food."

Ding Yi, Zhang Qian, and Wang Zhijun also stood up. Ding Yi identified the lower direction and pointed to them in the side and said, "Like that direction, we can't deviate from the main direction again this time. I will leave marks along the way to prevent us from deviating or losing our direction."

With Ding Yi determining the direction, Wang Xiaoming took the lead and walked in the front. This time, he wanted to lead.

The two aloe leaves that Zhang Qian had not used were collected. After thinking about it, they would have to be kept for emergency response on the road. After all, no one of them can be sure of what will happen in the future.

The four of them continued to set off, and Ding Yi was still holding a dagger and making marks from time to time along the way.

This is when they came out. There was too little big equipment, only such a dagger. If they had a compass on their hands, they wouldn't have to always mark it all the way.

Currently, he is observing the surrounding environment from time to time, especially various obvious markers. In comparison, Zhang Qian is the person who can best remember the environment in the mountains. He will not make mistakes in determining the location because of some similar environments.

Of course, in addition to paying attention to the surrounding environment, Zhang Qian also needs to pay attention to the various plants around him, because he is also responsible for finding food.

Although Ding Yi, Wang Zhijun and Wang Xiaoming would also pay attention to finding foods that can be used around them, they were not Zhang Qian after all, and they did not grow up in the mountains. They did not know and familiar with the three kinds of edible foods, and their understanding was not as good as Zhang Qian.
