Chapter 80: Is Honey Sweet?

The screams in his ears became smaller and smaller, and Xu Yi's heart became more and more steady.

Smoke is the best way for humans to deal with bees.

Even in parallel time and space, it is also powerful.

As the smoke became thicker and thicker, the bees in the hive could not bear it anymore and flew away from the hive.

Xu Yi took a bush, tied his machete to it, and then put the bucket underneath.

Find the right angle, Xu Yi slashed hard.

The hive, which was cut off by two-thirds.

It fell into the bucket accurately, which made Xu Yi laugh happily.

He ran in the direction of the camp with a bucket of water, but did not extinguish the fire.

Because he's going to come back and cut the grass and use it to make the bed.

"Dad. ”

Su Keke had already run out, and when she saw that Xu Yi was back in the barrage, she ran to greet her.

Xu Yi ran across the single-plank bridge and met Su Keke.

"There are probably some bee pupae in this hive, you can see if there are any, and if there are any, we will fry them at noon. ”

What fell into the bucket was not only honey, but also beehives.

"Daddy, is honey sweet?"

Su Keke asked, then reached over and picked a little bit and put it in his mouth.

"How's it going, sweet?"

Xu Yi hadn't tasted it yet, he just picked it up and ran away.

Thankfully, no bees caught up with him.

Otherwise, Xu Yi would not dare to return to the camp with honey.

"Sweet, very sweet, Dad, haven't you eaten it?" Su Keke listened to Xu Yi's tone and knew that he should not have tasted it.

"Well, I'll eat it again. Xu Yi touched Su Keke's head, and then led the bucket back to the camp.

These honeys are almost a bucket, and all of them are still very heavy, estimated to be more than a dozen catties.

These honeys still need to be treated, and the beeswax or some impurities in it must be filtered out.

After bringing Miti to the camp, Xu Yicai broke off a small piece and put it in his mouth.

"Well, it's very sweet, and there is no bitter taste, indicating that the source of the nectar is not poisonous. ”

[No. 1, it's not true, can honey still be poisonous?]

[Whether honey is poisonous or not depends on the source of honey. There are a lot of flowers, all of them are poisonous, you will find out for yourselves. 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 turns out that there is really a lot of honey that can kill you......]

After Xu Yi saw the barrage, he couldn't help but smile and said.

"The honey that causes poisoning can basically taste bitterness, such as bitterness, numbness, astringency and other peculiar smells, it is likely to contain toxic alkaloids, such honey should not be eaten raw, even if it is heated and eaten, it cannot be detoxified. ”

As for those nectar sources are toxic, this really requires professional knowledge, where can Xu Yi understand so much.

It would be nice to know that bitter honey is poisonous.

For example, Begonia, Marsan, Drunken Fish Grass, Tripterygium wilfordii, Purple Stem Zeland, White Rhododendron, Mandala, Boluohui, Sheep's Heel and so on are all known poisonous nectar source plants.

If you eat this honey, it will be cool.

So, in the wilderness, not all honey can be eaten.

"Daddy go 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 that Xu Yi cut back, so generally speaking, those bees will not attack Su Keke when they come.

"Mm-hmm, don't worry, Dad, Coco knows. ”

Xu Yi nodded, knowing that she knew no less than herself in this regard.

So, he returned to the hive with confidence.

The smoke was still smoking the hive, so the queen bee must have fled with the swarm.

When Xu Yi went back, he was not attacked.

So, he was relieved to harvest the weeds nearby.

When he had enough tidal sheaves, he tied them up with vines and cut them on.

Xu Yi cut for more than an hour before finishing work.

A total of five bundles were carried back to the camp by Xu Yi one after another.

When he returned, Sucoco was tearing up the last of the beehives.

She had a small pot at her hand, full of bee pupa.

"So many pupae?"

Xu Yi was a little surprised, but he didn't expect that there were quite a few bee pupae collected.

This stuff is fried in oil, and it's deliciously tight, and it's more fragrant than any snack.

"Mm-hmm, two more bowls. Su Keke said as if offering a treasure.

Actually, she didn't expect so much.

"That's great, dad is here to fry. ”

Xu Yi happily took off the leopard oil and prepared to 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 and 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 freeze to death.

"Okay, listen to our cocoa. As he spoke, Xu Yi touched Su Keke's little head, then took a small basket and poured all the contents of the pot and the bowl into the basket.

Xu Yi didn't do it immediately, but took a piece of bamboo, and then used a machete to get some thin bamboo threads.

Then, Xu Yi began to weave.

If you want to fry something, you need to have at least something to fish, right?

You can't always use a clip to clip slowly, that's a lot of trouble.

Therefore, Xu Yi simply used bamboo to weave a bamboo net.

It doesn't need to be big, let alone beautiful, just be usable.

Xu Yi's dozen are simple, and they are very small, and they are a circle the size of a palm.

So, it only took half an hour to weave.

Sucoco had collected all the chrysalis, and all that was left in the bucket was honey.

However, this honey is to be filtered.

"Dad, do you still want to make it up?"

Su Keke saw that there was still some bamboo left, so he asked casually.

"Well, it's a dense basket to filter out impurities in the honey. ”

Su Keke nodded and said happily: "Then Coco will make it, the bottom is thinner, and the top is wider, is it okay?"

"Of course you can, funnel shapes are better. ”

Xu Yi didn't expect Su Keke to make up something like this, it couldn't be better.

It just so happens that he can also learn how to weave things out of bamboo.

After all, what Su Keke learned was the method of weaving things with bamboo, and he used to use tree vines, which was the only 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 silk, you come to heat the oil, and Dad will fry the bee chrysalis in a while." ”

As he spoke, Xu Yi took a piece of bamboo and began to make bamboo silk.

Su Keke put the small pot on top of the stove and put most of the leopard oil in it.

Although leopard meat is sour, leopard oil does not.

Xu Yi was originally going to use these oils to make oil lamps, so it was okay to use them to fry bee chrysalis and then use them to make oil lamps.

After the oil boiled, Xu Yi asked Su Keke to step aside, so as not to be splashed.
