Chapter 368: Bee Chrysalis
Smelling the fragrance, Chu Jiaqiang couldn't help but reach over, threw it into his mouth with his eyes closed, and chewed it a few times, it was really good. When you taste the sweetness, you naturally keep your hands. That is, although Liang Yu and other women think it is very fragrant, they are still determined not to come down.
"I didn't expect this thing to taste good!" Chu Jiaqiang took a sip of wine.
"Hey! Don't eat so fast, people haven't caught much yet? Jackton and the others are also like Chu Jiaqiang, they began to scruple and taste the taste, and they didn't stop with their hands, and Wan Lao had to remind these ruthless guys.
When eating, Professor Wen also explained to everyone: grasshoppers also use their wings to make sounds. They use their wings to make "music" to attract mates and tell other grasshoppers to roll away. Different species of grasshoppers use different methods of "music" to make sounds, either by scraping the edges of their front wings with the sharp forks on their hind legs, or by having their wings rub against each other.
In flight, some grasshoppers make sounds by striking their hind legs with their wings, while others simply crackle and flapping their wings to make sounds. To hear this "music", some grasshoppers have eardrums under their wings, while others have eardrums on their forelimbs. Listening to this "music" can help the female grasshopper correctly determine whether the "musician" is a good match for her. Because each species of grasshopper only sings its own unique song.
"In addition, it is well known that grasshoppers are the best in the long jump in the animal kingdom......" Professor Wen said, and some people immediately questioned it.
"Isn't the long jump champion a jumper?".
"No, I heard that it was an African antelope, the last time I watched CCTV, those experts said it." A tourist's vigorous appearance seems to be a sure victory.
Professor Wen smiled and waved his hand: "I'm just talking about the top master, not the champion." Jumping is the champion of the high jump, the height it can jump is more than 100 times its own height, and the length it can jump is 150 times its own length. As for the African antelope, it would not be wrong to say that it is a champion, and people can jump from 30 to 36 meters. In addition, the kangaroo is also very capable. This involves the size of the animal, relatively speaking, small animals such as jumping sao are many times more intelligent than the African antelope. ”
As for grasshoppers, they can jump distances equal to 15-20 times their own length, and they don't need to run! But then again, the body of a grasshopper is designed for jumping. Its two hind legs are particularly long and strong, with thick, hard-working muscles bulging in the upper part of the hind legs, which store a lot of energy and can release it quickly.
In fact, the hind legs of grasshoppers are only suitable for jumping, so these two legs appear clumsy when walking. When the grasshopper prepares to jump, its four lower legs prop up the front half of its body, bend its hind legs, and then suddenly straighten and shoot itself into the air. In this way, jumping forward is 10 times faster than most bugs that run and travel.
Yang Lao didn't know much about these characteristics, he only knew that grasshopper is also a traditional Chinese medicine, which has the effect of dispelling wind and spasmodic, relieving cough and asthma, invigorating blood and treating sores, and is mainly used to treat children's convulsions, tetanus, whooping cough and asthma.
Grasshopper eaters, in addition to these people, there are also wrens and little squirrels. They also eat insects, and they are fried so deliciously that they can't help but stretch out their claws.
"Actually, farmers didn't know that it was edible and nutritious. Otherwise, if there is a plague of locusts, so many locusts will not starve to death so many people. Fu Shenglin said. Grasshoppers don't have to be fried, they can be eaten by burning them over a fire.
The others smiled, this thing can only be used as a snack at most, making people a staple food, where can I stand it?
On the beach, those swans were still walking leisurely, running into the water from time to time to swim around, but they were soon driven ashore by the golden turtles, and even the two giant carp did not welcome this group of swans.
"I found out yesterday that these swans are laying eggs here." Li Quan said suddenly.
Professor Wen and Fu Shenglin were stunned for a moment, and then asked happily, "Where is it?" We didn't find out. ”
Li Quan pointed to some of the spear fields by the river, which were one meter tall and were very popular forage for cows.
"No wonder!" The two old men smiled, and since they knew, they didn't bother to check. Swans are very alert, and when there are swans hatching eggs, there is a male who will watch the wind from the sidelines. There's no need to bother people and make the swan want to move Dan away.
A swan, Shi Shiran, walked over, approached Professor Wen's side, stretched his neck and looked curiously at what everyone was eating. It's unbelievable that these guys are so close to people, and such a group hasn't been wiped out. It can also be seen that where they live in the north, the locals also cherish these guys.
Professor Wen had no choice but to take out a small fish from the bucket that was ready to be used for barbecue and give it to the swan. The swan held the small fish in its mouth, and then Shi Shiran walked away.
"This little thing!" Fu Shenglin said with a smile.
"Old village, bee pupae are also very delicious, how about getting some?" A tourist said suddenly.
Hearing this, everyone subconsciously stood on end. Bee pupae can eat, everyone knows this, the problem is, those wild bees are crazy, who dares to mess with them?
"Ahem! You like to do it yourself. Chu Jiaqiang said.
The man's head shrank: "Forget it, I don't want to become a pig's head." "The fate of those thieves that night is still vividly remembered. According to the diagnosis of the doctors at the health center, those people almost died, and it is a miracle that they survived.
"Actually, there are some small bee colonies in the mountains, so you don't have to poke the nest of wild bees." Chu Jiaxiong said. He knew that there were several colonies there, but not bees, but ordinary mountain bees. There are only a few hundred of these mountain bees in a nest, and they are not as vindictive as bees.
"Then let's go see tomorrow, as long as it's not the group in the valley, I'm not afraid." It can be seen that the man was also the one who had stabbed the hornet before, and he was not small.
Although the mountain bee is different from the bee, it is also a honey collector and is a wild economic insect that is smaller than the domestic bee. Because of the collection of flowers in nature, the honey produced is the best among honey and can be used as a high-grade nutritional supplement. Mountain honey is also a good medicine for disease prevention, which has the effects of tonifying the spleen and stomach, moistening the lungs, nourishing the liver and detoxifying.
"Just stay safe." Chu Jiaqiang reminded. I don't stop it, I haven't done much about this before. In the spring, many mountain flowers bloom, and these mountain bees often produce honey, and a group of children at that time are not less harmful.
