Chapter 701: Pollination
"Why are you stopping us?"
Storm and Fengbei still have a strong control over their strength and themselves, and when they heard the sound, they forcibly braked the momentum of the forward rush, flipped upside down in the air, and returned to the side of Fengyun and the others, landing on their feet and standing in their original positions.

As soon as their feet landed, they looked at Fengyun and the others, their eyes full of confusion, obviously not knowing why they were stopping them.
"What are you going to do?"
Instead of answering their question, Fengyun asked them a question.
"Chase away the bees. ”
"Why are you driving away bees?"
"Of course, they weren't allowed to go near the rice paddies. ”
"Why stop them from approaching the rice paddies?"
"We are here to keep the yield of rainbow rice from being affected. ”
"When their bees get close to the rice field, how can it affect the yield of rainbow rice?"
"Bees like to eat flowers, they want to get close to the rice fields, in order to eat the flowers of the rainbow rice, once the flowers of the rainbow rice are eaten, they will not be able to produce seeds, and the yield will naturally be affected. ”
"Storm, Bey, you're wrong. ”
Hearing this, Mu Qiuxia finally couldn't hold it back.
"Wrong? Where are we wrong?"
"Bees like to approach flowers, not to eat them, but to eat the pollen in the flowers. ”
"Does it make a difference? Does pollen affect yields if it's eaten differently?"
"Wrong. After the bees eat the pollen, not only does it not affect the yield, but on the contrary, it increases the yield considerably. Sometimes there are no bees to visit, and there may not even be any production. ”
"How could there be such a thing? Qiuxia, what you said is true?"
Storm showed a very surprised expression, and Fengbei's eyes simply widened, and even Fengyun's eyes revealed a hint of surprise.
Unlike Storm and Fengbei's surprise, Fengyun was surprised by Mu Qiuxia's understanding of bee pollination, but he was relieved when he thought about it.
The Hundred Grass Tribe is very different from the Fire Jiao Tribe, and even most of the tribes in Razor, they will grow a variety of herbs for the purpose of medicine and medical research, and at harvest time, a considerable part of them need to collect fruits and seeds.
In the process of flowering and fruiting of herbs, it is not surprising to find that bees play a role in them.
"Of course what I'm saying is true. We've known each other for so many years, when have I ever lied to you. ”
In the face of the storm's suspicion, a trace of displeasure appeared on Mu Qiuxia's face.
"Hey...... Qiuxia, don't get me wrong, I didn't doubt what you meant, I just didn't expect that bees can increase their production in addition to being able to produce honey. ”
However, as soon as he said that he didn't suspect Mu Qiuxia, he turned his head and asked Fengyun, "Yun, why are you stopping me?
"Yes. I once accidentally noticed that fruit trees that were visited by bees produced far more fruit than fruit trees that were not visited by bees. ”
Naturally, Fengyun wouldn't tell Storm that in the world before he crossed over, it was common knowledge that bees could help plants spread flowers and pollinate, but it didn't bother him, and he casually made up a plausible-sounding reason.
"Since you said that, it seems that bees can really help increase the yield of rainbow rice. I'm going to see how they do it. ”
After getting the same answer from Fengyun, Storm finally believed that Mu Qiuxia had not lied to him, but he was still curious about how bees could increase the yield of rainbow rice.
"Oh no. The bees all fell to the ground. ”
Unexpectedly, as soon as the storm turned to look at the rice fields, he immediately shouted again.
His shouting caught the attention of everyone in the scene, and they all cast their eyes on the rice fields, and at this glance, they immediately realized that the storm was not lying.
Tempted by the aroma of the rice flowers, the bees kept flying towards the rice fields, but none of them could actually get close to the rice fields, let alone pollinate the rainbow rice flowers.
As they approached the rice paddies, they became slower and slower, and soon fell from the air and fell to the ground, motionless.
"How so?"
Fengbei blinked his big, dark and bright eyes, and his eyes were full of confusion.
"I know. ”
Fengyun responded, his face a little unsightly.
"Because of what?"
"The bees are frozen. ”
"Frozen?"
"The water in the rice fields comes from the Shuangcold Spring, and the water from the Shuangcold Spring is very cold, and although the rainbow rice absorbs a lot of cold during the growth process, there is still a small part left. We are totemic warriors, strong resistance, and have no effect on us, but the bees can't bear it. ”
"Brother Yun, what should I do? Without bees, wouldn't the yield of rainbow rice be greatly reduced? It's a pity that we have succeeded in planting rainbow rice, but we can't get a bumper harvest. ”
Fengbei's face couldn't help but show a look of regret.
In fact, it wasn't just her, Storm, Mu Qiuxia and Mulan Zhi also showed disappointment.
"It's not impossible to increase the yield of rainbow rice. ”
"What's the solution?"
Fengyun's words obviously made Storm and the others see hope, and hurriedly asked.
"It depends on our luck. If you are lucky, even without bees, the yield of rainbow rice will not decrease much. ”
"Luck, what does that have to do with luck?"
"I'm talking about luck, it's windy. If the wind blows and the wind is just right, the yield of rainbow rice can be guaranteed. ”
"Brother Yun, I don't understand, what does the yield of rainbow rice have to do with the wind?"
This time, not only Fengbei was confused, but Storm and Mu Qiuxia also seemed very confused.
"After I discovered that bees can increase the number of fruit trees in fruits, I once looked into the words of bees and fruit trees. I found out that there are actually two kinds of flowers in fruit trees, and I called them female and male respectively, and as for why I named them so much, it was all because I discovered a big secret about them. ”
"Brother Yun, what's the secret?"
Compared with others, Fengbei's curiosity is extraordinarily heavy, a secret, his eyes immediately glow, and he immediately asks.
"Fruit trees produce fruit, humans and animals are the same, they must be male and female, and bees can increase the number of fruits of fruit trees because they exchange the pollen of male and female flowers in the process of pollen, so that they are combined. ”
Speaking of this, Fengyun paused slightly, as if to give everyone time to understand his words, and then continued: "Since the key to affecting the yield is the combination of male and female flowers, then even if there are no bees, as long as the combination of male and female flowers can still be achieved, then the yield of rainbow rice will not be affected, and Feng is able to do this."
