Chapter 260 Finding New Food
Only then was Shen Nuo satisfied.
"I definitely won."
"Yes, Nuonuo should be rewarded with a kiss."
Qin Yan lowered his head and kissed Shen Nuo's slightly open lips.

The next day.
Early in the morning, some villagers made an appointment to go to the durian forest over there to pick durian.
Because there are durian, bananas and cochinchinensis here.
So they will stay here for a few more days.
Wait until they are ready and then start again.
Shen Nuo and Qin Yan continued walking around the area and went to the durian forest again.
Only this time, they were not going with the villagers, but just the two of them.
“I want to climb a tree, too.”
"No, either you don't want the durian, or you let me go up alone."
Qin Yan's attitude was firm, leaving Shen Nuo no room to persuade him.
"But I also want to go up and take a look at those big durians."
Shen Nuo really wanted to know how durian grows, and he wanted to take a closer look.
Actually, I just wanted to go up and play.
Qin Yan had already seen through the little fox's thoughts and refused to let him go up no matter what.
"If you go up there too, I'll take out everything I put into the space yesterday. I don't want it anymore."
"You...Qin Yan, don't go too far."
Shen Nuo seldom calls Qin Yan by his full name, and now that he does, Qin Yan feels a little flustered.
But he still wouldn't agree, he wouldn't let Shen Nuo take the risk.
A tree that is more than ten meters high is no joke. Even if you have magic power, it won’t work. Shen Nuo doesn’t have much magic power now.
Shen Nuo pouted, so Qin Yan held him in his arms and coaxed him.
"Be good, Nuonuo, I'll go up and pick a lot for you. Look, is there a biggest one up there? I'll go up and pick it for you, okay?"
Shen Nuo looked up and saw that the durian was really big and golden in color. It looked delicious.
Finally he nodded:
"Okay, then you should pick more, the bigger ones."
"Okay, I will definitely pick the biggest and sweetest ones for you."
That’s how I spent the morning. I picked a lot of durians and then went to the banana forest to pick a lot of bananas.
Then I started looking around to see if there were any better plants.
Shen Nuo used up all ten light spots yesterday and marked the locations of several potentially useful plants.
Now two more spots of light were turned on.
The rest should be kept for use on this day. It cannot be used up casually. It must be kept so that he can see it first in case of emergency.
Only then did Shen Nuo turn the light spots back on one by one.
Then he saw something familiar and stood up with excitement.
"Ayan, I seem to have found some food."
His voice trembled a little when he spoke. If there was new food...
"Really? What is it?"
Qin Yan's words did not mean he doubted him, but he did not believe him.
They now have less and less food, and only the people in Yunzhu Village can eat their fill.
There were so many other disaster victims that Qin Yan was sometimes afraid that they would get so hungry that they would start to eat people.
This has happened before. Some women and husbands have started cutting their blood to feed their children.
That's why they were so happy when they found bananas.
But they are not whole grains after all. Sooner or later they will go bad and become inedible.
If there is new food...
Qin Yan got goosebumps just thinking about it.
"It's true. Let's go and take a look. It's over there."
Shen Nuo was a little anxious. He quickened his pace and even wanted to run.
A pair of big hands pinched his waist and lifted him up, and Shen Nuo was hugged by Qin Yan again.
"The road here is uneven, let me hold you."
In fact, it was Qin Yan himself who wanted to hold Shen Nuo all the time. Shen Nuo believed in Qin Yan's words and let him hold her in his arms.
Shen Nuo showed him the way, and they soon arrived in front of a lush vegetation.
These plants have long leaves, and their branches are slightly white and pink.
"That's it. These are cassava. They're edible."
Shen Nuo got down from Qin Yan's arms, took out a hoe from the space, and dug up a cassava plant with one hoe.
Qin Yan just pulled it out and it was surprisingly easy to pull out.
What's more, the cassava underground was still in good condition, without any damage at all.
Shen Nuo squatted down and used his hands to dig up the cassava on the ground.
"It's really cassava. This whole area is full of it, Ayan."
Qin Yan had never seen this thing, but Nuo Nuo said it was food, so it must be.
Moreover, each of these cassava roots is very large, perhaps because the soil here is loose.
Qin Yan was also surprised to see that so many cassava could be pulled out from this one tree. These foods could really sustain them for a long time.
"Well, what is Nono going to do?"
Shen Nuo looked at the plants with the same bright spots. There were really a lot of them, so Shen Nuo didn't need to dig them up and preserve them himself.
"This thing is cheap if sold in space. We definitely can't eat it all by ourselves. I want to go back and tell the disaster victims to dig it themselves."
Hearing his soft voice saying these words, Qin Yan felt extremely fortunate that he had met Nuonuo.
"You are so kind, Nono. They will definitely be grateful to you."
"It's not entirely for them. If they are all hungry, they might steal our things. Although we are not afraid, we'd better avoid trouble as much as possible."
Qin Yan raised his hand to help him put the hair that blew onto his face behind his ears, and said softly:
"you're right."
Neither of them was in a hurry to go back to find those people, but continued to look around and look at other spots of light.
There was a large area of bamboo growing in the forest on one side, and Shen Nuo took a look.
"Look, those are bamboo shoots over there."
I didn’t expect that there were so many treasures in this forest, and Shen Nuo had walked so far without encountering any purple light spots.
This may be the reason why the plants here grow well. There are no animals, and no ferocious beasts will appear here.
Qin Yan walked over and looked at the bamboo forest, and there were indeed many large bamboo shoots in it.
These bamboo shoots are in large quantities, each weighing at least ten pounds. Moreover, this kind of bamboo shoot is the easiest to handle and tastes very good.
"These are all useful. Nono, do you like to eat them? Let's dig some and put them in the space first."
Having said that, Qin Yan started to pick the bamboo shoots.
These bamboo shoots are very big and actually very tender inside. Qin Yan only needs to push hard and the bamboo shoots will break from the roots.
"Okay, this can be used to dry bamboo shoots and also to pickle them."
This kind of bamboo shoots used to be found in Yunzhu Village, which is actually a place where bamboo and bamboo shoots are produced in abundance.
So Qin Yan didn’t have to worry at all about other people not knowing how to handle these bamboo shoots.
There were some small thorns growing on the outer shell of the bamboo shoots, so when Qin Yan saw Shen Nuo trying to break it off, he immediately stopped him.
"It will prick your hands. Just wait, Nuonuo. Let me do it."
