Chapter 45: The Guidance of the Honey Bird

"Ah~!"

This black shadow that suddenly appeared and attacked Wu Yicai startled him.

Wu Yi could feel that its body should not be large, and it did not deliberately attack itself, but only touched him slightly.

But even so, it still scared Wu Yicai, and its sudden appearance made Wu Yicai's heartbeat, which had been very calm all this time, suddenly accelerate and beat violently.

Wu Yicai immediately turned his head to look, and there was a palm-sized bird on the branch behind him.

It looks a bit like a sparrow, but its neck is much longer than that of a sparrow, and it looks more flexible overall, not as bloated as a sparrow.

Wu Yicai was a little depressed, the little broken bird dared to sneak attack him, this bird had been calling when he was building the ladder just now, and he was chirping endlessly, and now he actually made a sneak attack.

What's even more hateful is that this hateful bird landed on a very high branch after a sneak attack, but when Wu Yicai turned around and was about to saw bamboo, he flew over again to sneak attack, and then flew away.

This bird repeatedly attacked and teased Wu Yicai, which made Wu Yicai angry, and now he really wants to use a slingshot to kill it.

However, its next move reminded Wu Yicai of a very intelligent bird.

Yes!

The bird's behavior was not quite right, when Wu Yicai turned back to chase it, it flew to a branch not far away, and then jumped and screamed at Wu Yicai, and when it caught up, it flew not far away again to continue to attract Wu Yicai.

It's leading me!

Is this the kind of bird in the animal world that cooperates with people?

Although Wu Yicai was not sure if this was the kind of bird, judging by the fact that it had been attracting his attention and then leading him, it seemed that he wanted to share good things with Wu Yicai!

......

Following this bird, it didn't stay on a stone wall for a long time, but Wu Yi saw a small hole on the side of the stone wall**, where there were a few yellow and white things!

It's a beehive!

And those yellow and white things are honey and the empty nest mouth that has not yet stored honey, it turns out that this bird is really a honey bird!

As the name suggests, the honey bird is the bird that leads humans to share sweet honey with other animals, they cannot eat honey directly, but they know how to cooperate with others.

The honeybird is good at discovering honey and then notifying nearby people or creatures to share it with it, and it loves honey and beeswax, as well as white and tender tasty larvae.

Of course, the white and tender bugs are delicious to the honey bird.

This honeycomb is not very large, there are only five honeycombs inside, the shape is similar to a triangle with arcs, and the length is about half a meter.

They hang from the top of the cave and you can see some honey inside, but it's not easy to get by.

The honeycomb is crawling with bees, some of them crawling on the honeycomb, and some of them are flying near the hive, as if they are scouting.

If Wu Yicai rashly went up to get honey, he would definitely be stung into a big pig's head by this group of bees.

He needed some gear, went to the camp, and collected a lot of palm leaves and the usual giant leaves.

He covers himself with the collected leaves, then ties them with the bark of the tree, and finally completely envelops himself in the layers of leaves.

Wu Yicai now only shows two eyes and two hands, so as to prevent being stung by bees.

To obtain honey, he also brought a knife, a burning twig and an iron pot.

Branches can ignite flames to smoke bees so that they don't attack themselves, and knives and buckets are used to hold honey.

When Wu Yicai was walking in the direction of the hive, the honey bird was still leading him, and finally came to the stone wall where the hive was located.

Wu Yicai found some dry grass and tried to light it, but it turned out that the grass was very damp, and it took a long time to slowly burn, but this was exactly what I wanted, and the damp grass was smoking billowing smoke.

Insects are generally afraid of the smell of smoke, and the smoke rising from under the hive is sure to stun these bees.

Wu Yicai piled up the smoking fire under the hive, and it didn't take long for the bees to leave the nest, and he knew that now the opportunity had come, and he had to collect the honey quickly!

There is a large layer of honey on top of the honeycomb with a lot of black and yellow honey, and a layer of white stuff on the outside, as if this is beeswax.

Wu Yicai collected a total of four huge honeycombs, and left one behind, because there was a very large and long bee lying on top of that honeycomb, which may be the master of the colony, the queen bee.

There are also beekeepers in the mountains of Wu Yicai's hometown, and the beekeepers used to chat with Wu Yicai and them when they went up to the mountains to play.

He once said, "If the queen bee lives, the bees will live, and if the queen bee dies, the bees will eventually all perish!"

Wu Yicai left the last piece of beehive for their future development, hoping to provide himself with a steady stream of honey!

As a reward, Wu Yicai learned from the Africans in the animal world and left a small piece of beehive for the honeybird.

The hive was the size of a walnut, with honey and beeswax in it, and a few bee larvae.

The honeybird saw the beehive on the ground and flew down to eat the delicacies.

……

When he came to the camp, Wu Yicai was very fortunate that he was not stung by a bee, and it seemed that his honey collection techniques and equipment were very effective.

The honey in the bucket began to seep out slowly, and only a small part of it came out of the hive.

Wu Yicai wiped a little with his fingers, and after dyeing, he put it in his mouth and tasted it, this taste is awesome!

It's so sweet!

Tender!

Thick!

Mellow!

It's so delicious!

For this delicious honey, Wu Yicai has reached the level of obsession, and the wild honey is extra sweet than the one he bought.

"Huh? I just spoke?"

"Hahaha, I can talk......"

Yes, Wu Yicai regained his language ability, and eating those poisonous fruits made Wu Yicai lose his voice, and later because of the guidance of those macaws, he knew that eating mud could detoxify.

Now that I've been eating mud for two days, I can finally speak, and now even if I kill Wu Yicai, I won't eat those fruits!

……

Now Wu Yi has to deal with this honey, he doesn't have the kind of honey throwing tool that can be turned, and he can't make it, so he can only use the most primitive method to obtain honey.

Wu Yicai grabbed the hive with his hand, and some honey flowed out from between Wu Yicai's fingers, but there was still some honey stuck to the broken hive.

The honey that remains in the hive needs to be taken again, and then it will need to be boiled in water in the hope that the honey can be boiled out.

Wu Yicai poured the honey he had first picked up into a bottle with leaves as a funnel, and boiled the rest of the hives with water.

The honeycomb that has been boiled in boiling water is completely separated from the honey, and the broken honeycomb is taken out, and after the water in the pot is slowly dried, only the viscous honey remains.

About half an hour later, Wu Yi got two full bottles of honey, which is about 1 liter, which is really a big gain!

The honey treatment may not be so pure, and there are some bee stumps and hive fragments in it.

But the color of the honey is really beautiful, with a dull yellow color, like amber.

Wangcai seems to be attracted by the remaining honey in the pot, and it is desperately licking the pot, basically getting its body into it.

After finishing the honey, Wu Yi continued to work, and it took Wu Yi about an afternoon to build the beams of the house, and now he only needs to cover them with some reeds and weeds.

And when Wu Yi came to the reeds, Wu Yi found that there was an unexpected harvest in the small puddle made of captive bearded catfish that day!
