Chapter 27: Honey
I can't see Changsheng, and Xia Yue is not in a hurry.
Because she knows that such a situation cannot be rushed, and it is easy for people to make mistakes and then have accidents when they are in a hurry. Fortunately, she had observed her surroundings before she came, and although she was not very familiar with it, she at least remembered the general route.
On the way, he also found a ginseng in a steep place, which surprised Xia Yue very much.
But now is not a good time to pick, Xia Yue thought about tying the handkerchief in a conspicuous place to mark it, and then sliding down the slope.
In the process of sliding, seeing honey flying around in the cracks of the mountain, Xia Yue's sliding footsteps paused, and he grabbed the grass stalk beside him to fix his body.
Thinking of the expectant eyes of immortality and Xia Yang's forbearance desire, Xia Yue was a little hesitant, looking at the weather at this time, it was really not suitable to drive away the bees to collect honey.
But...... Xia Yue looked up at the sky and saw that the dark clouds were a little thicker than before, and the torrential rain could fall at any time.
Looking at the bees flying around again, he gritted his teeth and decided not to disappoint Changsheng and Xia Yang.
Some grass was randomly pulled and lit, and the smoke suddenly billowed out, and smoked against the cracks in the mountain, until the buzzing of bees could no longer be heard in my ears, and then I found a hard stone and carefully tapped the crack in the mountain.
Generally speaking, most of the mountains with such cracks are relatively thin and brittle, and the inside is hollow, so bees will build nests in them.
Sure enough, after only a few knocks, the weathered stones rolled down the mountain, revealing the beehives inside.
After the two flowering seasons of spring and summer, there are many beehives in the cave, and if all the honey is harvested, there may be dozens of catties.
If it is a greedy person, he may pick all this honey and leave no one, but Xia Yue knows that no matter how he behaves, he must leave room for others.
If all this honey is collected, not to mention whether she can hold it or not, let's just say that these bees, after summer is autumn, the source flowers of honey are almost all in the withering stage, and there is not much honey at all.
Without honey, these bees would have no ration to survive the winter, and all that awaits them is death.
In that case, she may not be able to find honey when she wants to eat honey next year.
Xia Yue found a few banana leaves to put on the ground, and then went to fetch honey, but after taking less than half of it, she stopped taking honey, and then found some dead branches that would be blocked by the cracks in the mountain she had destroyed, leaving the same mark.
So that next year she can come here to get honey.
Wrapping the honey carefully, Xia Yue slid down the hill more carefully, holding the honey in the direction of home.
Chang is angry, and his temper belongs to the kind of person who can't be coaxed well, so when he heard Xia Yue say that he didn't want to eat honey and didn't go to find honey, he was a little angry.
I wanted to get angry and thought that Xia Yue's cooking was so delicious, but I didn't dare to get angry for fear that Xia Yue would be angry, so I didn't give him anything to eat.
So he carried Xia Yang on his back and covered his head and left, until he saw home, he suddenly remembered something, and when he looked back, sure enough, his daughter-in-law was gone.
Changsheng was a little panicked, was his daughter-in-law angry with him?
He stood in place and looked at the door of the house, looked back again, and waited for a while before Xia Yue was gone, so he was in a hurry.
He put Xia Yang down, "You go home first, I, I'll go find my daughter-in-law!" With that, he turned and ran back.
Xia Yang looked at Changsheng, and then looked at the basket on the ground, sighed like a little adult, and moved home little by little with the basket that was almost taller than himself.
Xia Yue took the honey and didn't walk for a while, the raindrops the size of beans fell, and she hurriedly quickened her pace.
The rain fell, the humidity in the mountains was heavy, the fog rose, and the sky was dark, so Xia Yue was a little scared.
In the rain and mist, Xia Yue suddenly heard the voice of immortality.
"Daughter-in-law! Daughter-in-law! Where are you? ”
