Chapter 0283 - Natural Adhesive Glue (2nd Update)
The species of poisonous bee is unknown, and no one cares what kind of poisonous bee it is. When the sun is about to set, the poisonous bees are almost dead.
Even the poisonous honeycomb was split open, and the queen bee hidden inside was found and strangled to death.
Only a small number of venomous bees fly away, and according to the habits of bees, they will linger here for about a few days until they are sure that the hive is no longer there.
"Teacher Marcus, remember to warn all serfs that this area is not allowed to come. ”
"Yes, sir. ”
At this time, Lasse suddenly shouted: "My lord, it's honey, there is honey in this hive!"
"Is there really honey?" Liszt lifted his mask and looked down the section of the hive that Lasse had broken, and sure enough, he saw golden honey, exuding a faint alluring sweetness.
He broke it deeper with his own hands, and found that there were white larvae in many beehives.
This is a bee pupae.
It is about the thickness of an index finger, the length of a thumb, and a full size.
Seeing these white bee pupae, Liszt almost drooled, he had eaten fried bee pupa, which were delicious, crispy and delicious. Moreover, bee pupae contain high protein, low fat, a variety of vitamins and trace elements, which is a very supplemental ingredient. Now this person's half-height poisonous honeycomb can take out at least ten catties of bee pupa.
Some ate it!
"Lasse, Griffin, lift the chrysalis and carry them back! the honey and chrysalis are good, I want them. ”
"Yes, sir!"
As the two spoke, they were about to carry the hive, but they couldn't lift the hive at all, and their faces were flushed.
"Didn't you eat?" asked Marcus speechlessly.
According to the strength of the Earth Knight, although it cannot be said that the strength is infinite, at least it is several times that of ordinary adults. It shouldn't take so much effort to carry a poisonous honeycomb of less than 500 catties.
When Lasse heard this, his face turned even redder.
The milk is used vigorously, and the fighting spirit runs wildly, which is why the poisonous honeycomb is shaken.
Griffin, who was carrying it with him, suddenly noticed a problem: "Captain Marcus, the hive and the tree trunk here seem to be stuck to something, no wonder we can't move it." ”
"Sticky?" Liszt also walked over and inspected the part where the poisonous honeycomb was connected to the trunk, and found that as Griffin said, there was some white substance, which stuck the two tightly together, and he couldn't pull it, "It should be the sap secreted by the tree, so sticky?"
Looking up along the white substance, it happened to be the fracture of the branch that had been cut off by Lasse, leaving a lot of sap that flowed all the way here, and then dried up and solidified.
Seems to be stickier than 502 glue.
"Glue...... "Liszt felt that this kind ......of thing was very unusual, and if it was used, it should have a very wide range of uses.
At this time, Marcus had already drawn his steel longsword and aimed it at the bonding part, that is, he swung his sword and slashed.
While!
While!
While!
Three swords in a row, the white substance only cracked a small opening, and there was no sign of separating at all.
"A few more swords, Mr. Marcus, with a fighting spirit. Liszt motioned to Marcus not to stop and continued to slash to test the strength of the juice bonding.
Marcus complied.
The sword finally split the white substance, and the poisonous honeycomb was completely separated from the trunk: "What is so hard, I used all my strength to blow it before I cut it off." ”
"The sap that came down from the tree, Mr. Marcus, Lasse, Griffin, we might have found something better. Liszt pointed to the tree in front of him and smiled.
The big tree is a very common miscellaneous tree, which Liszt studied as early as his second landing on Dark Horse Island in search of the keel. The trunk is very straight, the branches are high, not luxuriant, flowerless and fruitless, and it does not grow tall. When the New Year came, the leaves were slightly yellow, but now the leaves are completely yellow.
At the beginning, it was concluded that this is a deciduous tree, which is ordinary and can probably be used as wood.
He also plans to cut down all the miscellaneous trees near the pasture when there is enough manpower to expand the area under cultivation for pasture. Now it seems that the trees that fortunately have not been cut down, and the trees that can flow such a powerful glue are clearly treasures given by nature.
The sun sets.
Liszt is not in a hurry to go back, anyway, there are no magical beasts on the island, and there is no danger: "Griffin, you cut a sword at the trunk of the tree." ”
"Yes, sir!"
A sword went down, and the bark cracked.
After about a minute, white juice began to ooze from the cracked area. Liszt took a little sap with a stick, and then stuck it to the trunk of the tree, shaking it from time to time to judge the speed of the sap bonding. After about five minutes of exposure to the air, the juice begins to condense.
After condensation, it is almost unbreakable.
"The effect is very strong, do you see what it does?" he asked triumphantly, with the intention of showing off - the sap of this tree is undoubtedly a natural binder, and judging from the degree of solidity after its solidification, it is definitely comparable to the existence of rubber, equal to the mixture of rubber and 502 rubber.
The importance of rubber, there is no doubt, the usefulness of 502 glue, is also very huge.
The advantages of the two are combined, and it is undoubtedly a more valuable natural glue.
However, the three of Marcus didn't realize this quickly, so they seemed a little confused.
Griffin even replied solemnly, "Maybe you can glue two things together?" It looks a bit troublesome, my lord, when the serfs cut down the tree, they might stick the axe to the trunk too." ”
"Cutting down trees?"
"Now, my lord, aren't you planning to cut down all the trees on the island and use them to expand the meadows? ”
"That was the old plan, but now it has changed, the pasture needs it, and this tree needs it even more!" said Liszt without question, "you may not understand what I just said, the sap of this tree is a good thing, a very good thing, and in my opinion, it is worth more than gold." ”
"Worth more than gold?"
"The juice can be used directly as a glue to glue items. For example, with glue, as long as the two planks are gently glued together, it is a perfect bond, which will not loosen or leak. It seems wasteful to use hoop kegs, and it may be suitable for gluing weapons. ”
Liszt calmed his excitement and continued: "Of course, the first thing to do is to determine its properties, how durable it is, how resistant it is to fire or water, how it can be harvested and stored, and so ......on."
Speaking of which.
He suddenly remembered that the smoke mission had been completed, and his elven worm should also arrive. Asked the three of Marcus to study the properties of the natural glue, he silently summoned the smoke mission.
However, it was found that the content of the task had not changed, and the task of cleaning up the poisonous honeycomb had not yet been completed.
"It seems that you need to wait for all the poisonous bees to fly away and the danger is completely removed before the task can be completed, but this tree is ...... with this task" Looking at the trunk and thinking about the task, he felt that the two seemed to be related: "Could it be that my tenth elf worm has something to do with this kind of tree?"
He quickly cast his magic eye and began to observe the large tree in front of him. When his gaze moved to the canopy at the top of the trunk, a magical light flashed in his vision.
