Challenge the wilderness to survive
Chapter 80
The cry in the ear became smaller and smaller, and Xu Yi's heart became more and more assured.
The smoking method is the best way for humans to deal with bees.
Even in parallel time and space, it is also powerful.
As the smoke thickened, the bees in the hive could no longer hold them, and they flew away from the hive.
Xu Yi took a bush, tied his machete to it, and put the bucket under it.
After finding the right angle, Xu Yi gave a hard blow.
The hive was directly cut down by two-thirds.
It fell into the bucket accurately and Xu Yi couldn't help laughing happily.
He carried the bucket and ran towards the camp, without putting out the fire.
Because he has to come back to mow the grass and use them to make the bed.
"father."
Su Keke ran out a long time ago, and when she saw the barrage saying that Xu Yi was back, she ran to meet him.
Xu Yi ran across the single-plank bridge and met Su Keke.
"There are probably some bee pupae in this hive. You will see if there are any. If there are, we will fry them at noon."
What fell into the bucket was not only honey, but also honeycomb.
"Dad, is honey sweet?"
Su Keke asked, and then his little hand stretched out and put it in his mouth.
"How about it, sweet?"
Xu Yi hadn't tasted it yet, he ran away carrying it as soon as he received it.
Fortunately, no bees caught up with him.
Otherwise, Xu Yi didn't dare to bring honey back to the camp.
"Sweet, especially sweet, did you not eat it, father?" Su Keke heard Xu Yi's tone and knew that he hadn't tasted it.
"Well, go back and eat again." Xu Yi touched Su Keke's head, then led the bucket back to the camp.
These honeys are almost a bucket, and all are still very heavy, estimated to be more than ten kilograms.
The honey still needs to be processed, and the beeswax or some impurities in it must be filtered out.
When Mi Tee arrived at the camp, Xu Yi broke a small piece and put it in his mouth.
"Well, it's very sweet, without any bitter taste, indicating that the source of nectar is not poisonous."
[No. 1, isn't it true, can honey be poisonous?
[Whether honey is poisonous depends on the source of honey.There are a lot of flowers, they are poisonous, you will know by checking it yourself.No. 1 is not an expert in this area. Is it difficult for you to check it yourself?
[I don’t know if I don’t check it, it turns out that there are really a lot of honey that can kill...]
After seeing the barrage, Xu Yi couldn't help but smiled and said.
"The honey that causes poisoning can basically taste bitterness, such as bitter, hemp, astringent and other peculiar smells, it is likely to contain toxic alkaloids. Such honey should not be eaten raw, and it will not detoxify even if it is heated."
As for those nectar sources that are poisonous, this really requires professional knowledge. How can Xu Yi know so much?
It would be nice to know that bitter honey is poisonous.
Begonia, Ma sang, Buddleia, Tripterygium wilfordii, Eupatorium adenophorum, White Rhododendron, Datura, Boluohui, Sheep stalk, etc. are all known poisonous nectar plants.
If you eat these honey, it will be cold.
Therefore, in the wilderness, not all honey can be eaten.
"Daddy is going to mow the grass, you get this honey here, don't leave the fire. If a bee comes, don't run, you know?"
The queen bee is not in the hive Xu Yi cut back, so generally speaking, those bees will not attack Su Keke when they come.
"Yeah, don't worry, Dad, Coco knows."
Xu Yi nodded, knowing that she knew nothing less than herself in this respect.
So, he returned to the hive with confidence.
The dense smoke is still smoking the hive, so the queen bee must have escaped with the swarm.
When Xu Yi returned, he was not attacked.
So he was relieved to harvest nearby weeds.
After enough, he tied it up with vines and then cut it.
It took more than an hour for Xu Yi to cut work before finishing.
A total of five bundles were carried back to the camp by Xu Yi one after another.
When he came back, Su Ke Ke was tearing some of the last hives.
There was a small pot beside her, which was full of bee pupae.
"So many bee pupae?"
Xu Yi was a little surprised, but he didn't expect to collect many bee pupae.
This thing is fried with oil, it is delicious and tight, more fragrant than any snack.
"Yeah, there are two more bowls." Su Keke said as if offering a treasure.
In fact, she did not expect so much.
"That's great, Dad will fry it."
Xu Yi happily took the leopard oil and prepared to deep-fry all these bee pupae.
"Dad, let's fry a bowl first, and then fry the rest."
Bee pupae will not die so easily, unless the temperature is relatively low, they will freeze to death.
But in this place where they are, it is a little hot to sleep at night, so naturally they will not be frozen to death.
"Okay, listen to our cocoa." As he said, Xu Yi touched Su Coco's little head, then took a small basket, and poured all the pot and the bowl into the basket.
Xu Yi didn't do it right away, but took a piece of bamboo, and then used a machete to make some thin bamboo threads.
Then Xu Yi began to knit.
If you want to fry something, you need at least something to fish, right?
You can't use a clip to slowly clip it, that's a lot of trouble.
Therefore, Xu Yi simply used bamboo to weave a bamboo slippery net.
It doesn't need to be too big, let alone beautiful, just use it.
Xu Yi compiled more than a dozen simple, and very small, a circle as big as the palm of the hand.
So, it only took half an hour to knit.
Su Ke Ke has collected all the bee pupae, and the rest of the bucket is honey.
However, these honey must be filtered.
"Dad, do you want to make up?"
Su Keke saw that there were some bamboos left, so he asked casually.
"Well, I need a denser basket to filter the impurities in the honey."
Su Keke nodded and said happily: "Then let's make the cocoa. The bottom is thinner and the top is wider, okay?"
"Of course, funnel-shaped ones are better."
Xu Yi didn't expect Su Keke to make up such a thing, and that would be great.
It just so happens that he can also learn how to use bamboo to make things.
After all, what Su Keke learned was the method of weaving things with bamboo. Before using tree and rattan, there was only such a material.
"Then Dad will get some more bamboo, the longer the better, these are too short."
Xu Yi nodded, he could still do this.
"Then dad makes bamboo shreds, you come to heat the oil, and dad will blow up the pupae later."
With that, Xu Yi took a piece of bamboo and began to make bamboo silk.
Su Coco put the small pot on the stove and put most of the leopard oil in it.
Although leopard meat is sour, leopard oil will not.
These oils were originally intended to be used by Xu Yi to make oil lamps, so it is possible to use them to blow up bee pupae and then use them to make oil lamps.
After the oil boiled, Xu Yi told Su Keke to step aside to prevent her from being splashed.
