Chapter 79: Preparing to Fetch Honey

Now, he has enough gourd trees to hold honey.

There is also a basket for defense on the head, just coat it with a thick layer of mud, and then run under the hive to make a fire and smoke the bees away.

Today, Xu Yi felt that there was not enough time, so Xu Yi was ready to go tomorrow.

He used a stone axe to clean up the relatively empty part of the camp, then carried buckets of water for several days, made the dirt there very wet, and then took Su Keke with him for a while.

It is best to use silt for grinding the soil on his body, but Xu Yi could not find silt nearby.

The bottom of the river is rocky and free of silt.

So, I had to get some mud on my own.

Fortunately, the soil here is relatively soft, and after soaking in water, two people trampled on it for an hour, and it turned into mud.

Xu Yi was still not at ease, so he carried several buckets of water and poured it in that position to keep the soil at a relatively high humidity.

After all this work, Xu Yi began to work on the clay.

Xu Yi put a wooden plank on the ground and beat clay on top of it.

Xu Yi added some water from time to time to adjust the softness and hardness of the clay.

After getting what he thought was suitable, Xu Yi began to use clay to make pottery.

Xu Yi first made a clay pot, which is about 20 centimeters in diameter and 10 centimeters in height.

This is considered a large pottery, Xu Yi first made a cube out of clay, and then slowly removed the middle part.

This big pottery, Xu Yi took an hour to get it.

Dinner, it's all handed over to Su Keke to deal with.

Xu Yi asked her to cook the cassava she had cut in the morning in a small pot and divide it into several portions.

The water is boiled first, and then the cassava is put down.

This will not cook into a paste, after all, cassava is relatively high in starch.

When cooking something, Su Keke felt that the pot was too small, and it couldn't cook much at all.

A pot is full, and it is not enough for one person to eat.

"Dad, you eat first, Coco is not hungry. ”

After cooking a serving, Su Keke brought it to Xu Yi's side.

Xu Yi took a look at it and found that Su Keke's cooking was a bit like soup, a little viscous.

The outside of the cassava kernel is covered with starch and has a translucent feeling.

"Looks good, Daddy try it. ”

Xu Yi took a sip, and there were some cassava grains in his mouth.

"Yes, the taste is good, salty and light and suitable, very greasy. ”

Yesterday's venison, today's leopard meat, Xu Yi felt that a 'cassava porridge' was too greasy and delicious.

A stomach, Xu Yi felt very satisfied.

After eating, he continued to make pottery embryos.

Now, he makes clay pots, which can be used to hold water and boil water for cooking.

In pottery, this is relatively easy to fire.

At night, Xu Yi is making pottery.

By 11 p.m., Xu Yi had made 10 clay pots, 6 clay bowls, 4 clay cups, two large clay pots, and a small clay pot with a diameter of 15 cm.

The soil from the termite pile he brought back was also used up.

These clay embryos need to be shaded.

The weather here is relatively hot, and the humidity is not too high, so Xu Yi thinks that it may be about the same if it is left to dry under the wooden house for three or four days.

However, in order to increase the success rate, Xu Yi planned to wait until seven days later to fire these pottery embryos.

The more thoroughly it is dried, the higher the success rate of firing.

At night, Su Keke still slept in his hammock.

Xu Yi carried the plank back to the second floor, and he put snake skin on the plank, which was more comfortable than sleeping directly on the floor.

Early the next morning, Xu Yi and Su Keke woke up before and after.

Today, Xu Yi is going to get rid of those bees and then get honey back.

Therefore, Su Keke is still very excited and looking forward to it.

Although they had some mangoes, they were not yet ripe, so they decided to leave them for a week or two before eating them, so that they would ripen and the astringency might not be gone.

After getting up, Xu Yi and Su Keke finished washing.

Then, a cassava was dug out of the pit.

This was roasted before Xu Yi went to bed last night.

After all, a campfire can't be extinguished.

I cooked breakfast, and I made the most of the campfire.

Half a cassava for one person, and with some venison slices, the two of them still eat very full and nutritious.

After breakfast, Xu Yi took off his clothes and pants, and then stepped on the mud he made yesterday with Su Keke.

Then, let Su Keke wipe it on his body.

After smearing a thick layer, Xu Yi brought a bucket, a fire, and a hooded basket.

Su Keke naturally stayed in the camp, after all, Xu Yi didn't know if those bees were poisonous.

Even if the toxicity is very low, sting Su Coco can cause her to develop allergies.

Allergies can cause laryngeal edema, which can block the trachea and suffocate to death.

Therefore, bee stings are not a trivial matter, as soon as you have allergic symptoms, seek medical attention as soon as possible, and choose to seek medical attention nearby, first use desensitization drugs or injections.

Soon, Xu Yi came to the vicinity of the hive.

His current position was not yet a threat to the swarm, so they did not come to attack Xu Yi.

Xu Yi found some dead trees and put them in the bucket, and then began to collect hay.

He's going to rush straight to the bottom of the hive in one go, so he'll need to make a torch to smoke the bees away.

After lighting the torch, Xu Yi put on the basket, turned on the X-ray vision, and rushed towards the hive.

Approaching the realm of the bee colony, countless bees rushed out of the hive and pounced on Xu Yi.

The dense swarm of bees makes the audience's scalp tingle.

Everyone is worried about Xu Yi.

I thought it was too scary to look at, but there were seven or eight thousand bees, and there were a lot of black ones.

Xu Yi held a torch in one hand and a machete in the other, cutting down a piece of grass on the ground.

Then, place the torch on the ground.

Dead wood in a bucket with a torch on top of it.

After it was burned, Xu Yi put the grass he had cut down on top of the fire.

In this way, thick smoke can be produced.

On the side, it's all a 'buzzing' sound, which makes people feel creepy when they listen to it.

Xu Yi squatted on the ground and tightened his body.

The basket on the head is undoubtedly the safest defense.

Xu Yi felt that if he sewed a piece of clothing with snake skin, he should not be afraid of these bees.

His body was covered in mud, but in some places the mud had slipped away, or had cracked.

Therefore, he still has more than a dozen bites on his body.

Fortunately, it didn't hurt very much, otherwise Xu Yi wouldn't know how to escape.

After the smoke and gas, the swarm began to form a mess.
