Chapter 8 Don't beep if you can do it (ask for recommendation and collection)

Shi Lei's life is plain and fulfilling, he gets up early every day to practice martial arts, sorts out his memory, and after accumulating energy, he transforms into an ant queen and a scorpion. You don't need a lot of spiders, just put one in the house where you usually stay.

The number of scorpions is larger, not only to meet the needs of guarding the various nests, but also to put some in their own houses. Their tasks are not quite the same as those of spiders, and Shi Lei needs their help to eliminate those arrogant rats.

These rats are on the verge of disaster. After the farmers came, they almost dispersed the animals here, and these nasty house thieves, without the opponents who suppressed them, lived unscrupulously.

This may be why people in Shuzhong have the habit of raising domestic snakes. This non-venomous snake is a good rat catcher, and it is not harmful to people, so it naturally replaces the position of domestic cats.

However, Shi Lei and them do not have this condition yet. Housekeeping snakes are generally raised by the Shu people themselves, and they are closer to people, not just to be found.

Everywhere in this valley can be seen, there are venomous snakes with triangular heads, many of which are deadly enough to be taken home and raised.

The struggle and compromise between man and nature is especially evident in the process of opening up new land.

It's Shi Lei here, and now there are finally no annoying rats to disturb his tranquility. These little guys that Shi Lei copied were like iron buckets guarded around Shi Lei.

Any rat that dared to appear in this range was stung by a spider or a scorpion. Either it became food for these two poisons, or it was eaten by ants.

Except for the first time when Shi Lei went to arrange some ants to enter the house to clean the battlefield, every time Shi Lei woke up after that, he couldn't even see a little bit of mouse residue, let alone a complete corpse.

Those greedy copper peas, even the blood-stained ground, will be shoveled up and taken away, to ensure that the ground is cleaner than Shi Lei's own hands-on cleaning.

In general, Shi Lei's life during this period was very regular, and it was also tranquil and comfortable for him. In my previous life, I was always busy, and it was even more common to get up early and go to bed late, and I had no time and energy at all to breathe fresh air freely.

Now for Shi Lei, these are not luxuries, but things that are readily available, but Shi Lei cherishes such a time even more.

It's just that there is one bad thing, and that is the problem of eating. Now Shi Lei mostly cooks by himself, and after several uncles tried Shi Lei's skills, they also decisively chose to come to him to solve their three meals a day.

After all, he was cultivated by the great foodie country in later generations, and he was a fairly qualified cook. Compared to today's somewhat monotonous diet, it is naturally much more attractive.

However, Shi Lei was still in the period of filial piety, so he had to give up all kinds of meat he loved, especially his favorite braised pork.

When the three uncles came over for dinner, they would bring some hunted game and the like, but they never let Shi Lei handle it, and they were all prepared in advance by the hunter uncle, who was also good at handling these game.

Whether it is roasted or waxed, the hunter uncle is a good hand, so Shi Lei doesn't even have a chance to steal his mouth. I could only watch the three uncles eating there, and I secretly kept drooling.

Since the abstinence from meat has been implemented thoroughly, Shi Lei has no choice but to think of other ways. Fortunately, everyone didn't seem to put all kinds of insects into the category of fasting, and Shi Lei's demand for animal protein had to be met from this aspect.

In such a humid and primitive environment as Yazhou, there is naturally no shortage of all kinds of insects. Whether it is the gold-eating ants who have tasted the taste before, or the scorpions that occasionally become the objects of Shi Lei's transformation, they have become frequent guests on Shi Lei's table, and the three uncles have also felt their deliciousness.

As for the fried spider I felt when I traveled in my previous life, it didn't quite fit Shi Lei's taste, so I just made it for a few uncles to taste, and later this dish was unanimously excluded from the menu.

However, fried bean worms, and some cocoon seeds, that is, silkworm pupae that have already formed cocoons, have achieved unanimous praise. If it weren't for the conditions, Shi Lei would have wanted to try the "three squeaks" and "dragon and tiger fights" developed by the Fujian people who dared to eat the most, these two resources are also extremely rich in the valley. It's a pity that this is all meat, and I still haven't had a chance to taste it.

In order to satisfy his appetite, Shi Lei did not hesitate to waste part of the energy of the transformation system, and transformed several bee colonies of considerable size around him, of course, only the queen bee of the transformation. The harvest was naturally filled with several large vats of honey, and at first a portion of the pupae.

The spring-like weather here ensures that there are seasonal flowers at all times, and the resources of honey are naturally very rich. So the seemingly remote place is really rich in natural resources.

These honey Shi Lei did not leave all of them, except for those left for himself and the three uncles, the others were the same as the ants before, and were distributed to all the farmers by the housekeeper uncle.

The modification of bees is not carried out in the direction of increasing their attack power. Of course, there are also "killer bees" in this regard, and this kind of hybrid crazy killer can be referred to, but Shi Lei's purpose is relatively pure, just to increase their ability to produce honey.

The modified bees also have a significant increase in size. As the key to collecting pollen, their brush-like legs are unusually developed, and their flight ability has also been enhanced to a certain extent.

There is also an obvious change, that is, their hives have become behemoths. When the swarm came out, it buzzed like a swarm of bombers overhead.

There is no need for the housekeeper to order them, and no one will take the initiative to provoke these guys, including the bear children who jump up and down all day long.

It should be said that these bear children are relatively obedient, I don't know if the farmers are used to militarizing the management of their children, or it should be more stick education.

Anyway, since the last time the housekeeper told me not to touch those ant nests, no one has been hurt by those ants.

There is no one who deliberately pees and pours on the ant nest. It's hard to imagine what would happen if a little guy did something like this.

It's not good that because of the backlash of formic acid, the little finches of the bear children will be destroyed. Shi Lei didn't plan to have a few more talents under his hands who could go to the palace to listen to them.

When the renovation was just completed, Shi Lei was very worried for a while. I haven't heard anything like this until now, and Shi Lei is relieved. Shi Lei also found that even if these little guys went to catch scorpions, they would deliberately avoid the range where those ant nests were located.

Led by Shi Lei, the owner who doesn't seem to be in tune, these bear children are not low in enthusiasm for catching scorpions. However, they are not all like Shi Lei, most of them are caught and eaten, but they soaked the scorpions and the ants provided by Shi Lei into high wine, as a good medicine for the prevention and treatment of rheumatism at home.

Scorpion soaking in wine also has an effect on rheumatism, which Shi Lei only remembered later. He immediately got two modified scorpions and stuffed them into the big jar where the blacksmith uncle made ant wine. This method slowly spread among the farmers.

Well, Uncle Blacksmith is actually a big trumpet, and if he knows these things, everyone knows.

Originally, these veterans who came down from the battlefield, not to mention that they were all addicted to alcohol, they all had the habit of drinking, and the more strong they were, the more they liked it.

Now that there is a reason for the medicinal wine, they drink it more justifiably. So the children catch scorpions, which is rare for the parents to agree.

In Shi Lei's opinion, although these bear children seem to be naughty, the children of the poor have long been in charge. They went up to the trees to dig out birds' eggs and went down to the river to fish and shrimp, which seemed to be playing, but to a certain extent, they also subsidized the family.

The light and dark rivers pass by, which naturally brings abundant fish and shrimp resources. Although most of them are from Guanzhong farmers, they are not used to eating fish and shrimp as meat as a main dish, after all, they are also a good source of protein, and the method is simple, so it is good to use it to improve the diet.

There is a farmer with good archery skills, and from time to time he will go into the mountains to get some game like the hunter uncle. They are accustomed to teamwork, and they will always take good care of each other, and the harvest is not bad.

Therefore, such a place is really rich in products. Even if the food is not yet ripe, you can only rely on the little you bring to hold on, and you don't have to worry about starvation.

Even compared to the previous time in Guanzhong, the living conditions have improved a lot. At that time, there was not as much meat on their table as there is now.

And with the land and climate here, as long as you don't deliberately spoil things, you can expect more output than Guanzhong.

As for the occasional sip of wine from the children, the farmers didn't care too much, and didn't they add seasoned honey to the wine. The bear children stole a lot of honey before, and the adults didn't say anything, so they were beaten up.

When they can do it, the veterans generally don't beep with people. This habit works well both when educating the enemy and when educating the child. What's the problem that can't be solved with a single beating? Then just give one more beating.

Shi Lei was just glad that when he crossed over, he had become alone, otherwise he would have to wait for the next meal like these bear children.

Shi Lei extremely suspected that his body was beaten out by the dead ghost father. Now the three uncles, although they occasionally want to smoke Shi Lei, but after all, they are not his sons, and they can't do it casually.

Of course, these emotions can be vented on the martial arts training ground, which is also to urge Shi Lei to maintain the motivation to practice martial arts. It turns out that this method is quite effective, no.

Shi Lei has nothing to say about this, so he can only silently note down the kindness of a few uncles. Working harder to practice kung fu and strive to be able to beat the three uncles down as soon as possible is the best reward for them.

I don't think that the new types of bees have come out, and these unmodified worker bees can't be wasted, right? Shi Lei hurriedly told the three uncles all the eighteen pieces of information he knew about apitherapy.

Shi Lei in later generations has also experienced this kind of therapy, and the sourness is still fresh in his memory. The stinging area will not be swollen for three to five days without pain.

The operation technique is very simple, but for the understanding of acupuncture points, Shi Lei is definitely not as good as the three uncles who are in the martial arts, and they can be regarded as having been immersed in the martial arts for a lifetime. So for the specific sting, let the three uncles play by themselves. At this time, of course, you have to choose to fully believe in the three uncles.
