Chapter 43: The Giant Rock Bee
……
The farm area is vast, and more than 150 acres of land are arranged in an orderly manner, because there is nothing planted, and the bare land looks a dark brown. ```
And between this dark brown, the small Yingyue Lake, the water surface is as smooth as a mirror, reflecting the sunlight, which is particularly dazzling.
The Luo family's house with blue tiles and white walls, the square and square pattern is rigorous, and the grass and trees are covered, although it is simple, it looks like there is a sense of elegance, and it reveals a bit of homely warmth.
Between his home and Yingyue Lake, there is a small stream, like a jade belt, flowing down from the mountain, entering Yingyue Lake, and then meandering out of the gap by the lake, far away, flowing in front of his house.
Several other farms surround the mountain, most of them about the same size as his family's farm, and some smaller than theirs, such as Uncle Cao's Blue Cherry Farm next door, which is only six square kilometers.
Rayong looked to the south, and farther away, a high ridge of roof could be faintly visible. It was a large farm dozens of kilometers away, called Donglin Farm, which was much larger than their family, covering an area of more than 100 square kilometers.
That's a real big farm. I heard that they have also set up a research institute to improve crops, and new varieties are coming out every few years. Just by providing seeds to the outside world, there is a lot of profit.
Rayong retracted his gaze and secretly encouraged himself in his heart. With his efforts, there will come a time when his family's farm will be bigger and stronger than Donglin Farm. And, this day, for sure, won't be too far away.
"Buzz~"
A loud buzz interrupted his thoughts.
He turned around and saw that on the other side of the mountain, a swarm of wild bees had appeared at some point.
The coverage of the spiritual sense is only fifteen meters, which is already far beyond the coverage of the spiritual sense.
Wild bees are very common on farms, and he has stabbed many wild bee nests when he was a child. However, these wild bees look a little unusual.
Although the distance is relatively long, after Rayong reaches the qi storage period, his body organs are strengthened, and things that are tens of meters away can still be seen clearly.
Those wild bees have conspicuous black and red stripes on their bodies, and each one is at least the size of a fist!
You know, this is a green starfish, the green starfish of the earth's civilization, unlike some advanced civilizations in the stars, it is not surprising what kind of creatures appear.
Although the average wild bee on the green starfish is much larger than the bee, it is only the thickness of a finger at most. After all, wild bees also make a living by collecting honey, and they are too big, so how can they stand firm on the petals?
But these wild bees in front of him subverted his cognition. With such a large size, can you collect nectar? Is there such a big flower on a green starfish?
Remembering that there seemed to be a set of biological illustrated books in the electronic butler, Luo Yong hurriedly opened it and checked it.
After this investigation, I learned that this wild bee is called a giant rock bee. As he thought, it is true that these bees do not make a living by collecting honey.
The giant rock wasp is a scavenging bee. Interestingly, in a bee colony, only the worker bees are scavenging bees, and the rest of the queens, drones, females, etc., feed on nectar.
But the worker bees are too big and there are too few flowers for them to collect nectar, so what should we do?
Quite simply, they collect some saprophytic seeds and plant them in their nests. The queen, the drone and the female, feed on the nectar of these flowers.
The nests of giant rock bees are often built inside a large rock with a fist-sized hole in the side for the worker bees to enter and exit. Because there are not many flowers in the nest, there will only be one queen, a female and a male bee in the nest of a giant rock bee, and sometimes only the queen.
These habits have been studied by some biologists, but in fact, Rayong only cares about their combat effectiveness.
He looked at it for a while, and finally found what he wanted in the dense text.
Giant rock bees are highly venomous.
When the giant rock wasp hunts, it uses its knife-like forelimbs to cut a gap in the animal's frontal skin and inject toxins. When the animal dies, the small prey is brought back to the nest and used as food rations and flower fertilizer. For larger animals, they are cut into small pieces and brought back little by little.
Sometimes, however, they find it too much trouble to hunt and will snatch food directly from the mouths of other animals. Or when cutting large prey, the speed is slow, and it will be snatched by other animals.
After reading it, Rayong felt a lot more relieved. If it's just highly toxic, don't worry too much. Although the poison is terrifying, the speed of the giant rock bee is limited, and it is basically impossible to catch up with him.
However, this nest of giant rock bees is a threat to the surrounding farms.
After all, for giant rock bees, humans are not much different from other large animals except for their appearance, and even if they attack humans, it is normal.
However, no one has found them on the surrounding farms, indicating that the nest of giant rock bees should not have been here for long.
Since he found this group of giant rock bees today, of course, it is impossible to keep them any longer, and he is bound to find the nest and kill them with one blow.
Rayong took a closer look at the rocks around him and soon noticed an anomaly.
Less than fifty meters away from him, several rocks were stacked on top of each other, and it was from within them that the giant rock bees flew out.
The distance of fifty meters is not long, but it is not short. Although he is not afraid of giant rock bees, he also does not want to be discovered by them before destroying their nests.
Rayong took a few steps to the side, and with the help of a few rocks that were not too big or small, blocking the view of the rock bee swarm, the figure flickered, and he reached the back of the nearest rock.
Five minutes later, he was standing less than three meters from the giant rock hive.
This place can basically be said to be at the door of the giant rock bee. With a sweep of spiritual sense, the situation inside the giant rock beehive can be clearly perceived.
As he had expected, the nest had not been here for long, and there were still many larvae in the nest that had just hatched, and there was not much carrion in the store, and even the saprophytic flowers that were supposed to have grown had not yet grown.
Giant rock bees are heat and cold tolerant, and noon is the time when they are most active. Those giant rock bees should have just come back from predation, because in his spiritual sense, he found a lot of fresh meat in the nest.
Fortunately, I found it in time, otherwise, after this group of giant rock bees grows and grows, it will not be easy to deal with them, even if it is yourself. After all, the numerical superiority of the giant rock bee cannot be ignored.
Now, though, with only a few dozen giant rock bees in total, it's much easier to deal with.
Moreover, now that the giant rock bees are in the nest, wouldn't he be too sorry for himself if he didn't do it?
Thinking like this, he immediately took out a pepper from his belt and threw it into the crack of the rock.
The bright red pepper pierced through the cracks in the rocks and landed right on the queen bee in the center.
Chaotian Pepper was shaken, and it exploded in an instant, and the red and bright fragments flew in all directions.
"Boom!"
The earth-shattering sound erupted from the crack in the stone, and his ears tingled for a moment.
"Boom~"
The shock wave spread out to the surrounding area, oscillating rapidly back and forth in the narrow crevices of the rock. The stones, which were originally piled up in pieces, suddenly could not bear it anymore, collapsed to both sides, and fell to the ground. There is a relatively thin one, and it is even directly broken into two.
A foul smell came to his face, drilling straight into his nose, Rayong almost spit it out, and quickly wrinkled his nose and hid away a little.
The giant rock bee is a scavenging creature, and those carrion have been piled up in the rock crevices for I don't know how long, and it was okay when the gaps were small before, but this collapse, the smell is simply disgusting and indescribable, and he blew a cold wind for a while before it can be regarded as relieving.
"Buzz~"
A giant rock bee survived, flying around the nest non-stop.
Rayong swept his spiritual sense and found that the explosion had completely ended. One rock fell unfortunately, and it happened to be crushed against the queen bee.
The queen bee was almost the length of a man's arm, and at this time it had been blown beyond recognition, the red and black head and body had almost completely separated, and the milky white oocyst had been completely cracked, and it was completely impossible to see the original appearance.
The nest was in shambles, red pepper shards were everywhere, the young wasps were all crushed under the rocks, and dozens of other giant rock bees were almost all dead.
There is another one.
He picked up a stone casually, flipped it in the palm of his hand, and bounced it out with a "snap" of his middle finger.
The giant rock bee was so angry that it fell to the ground and could no longer fly.
This hand, this can be regarded as learning from Lu Caomei.
The so-called will not be difficult, but the difficult will not. With his current strength, this kind of method can be regarded as easy to come by, and the power is also quite good. However, after all, it has not been specially practiced, so it is naturally no problem to deal with giant rock bees with large fists, and the pheasant is barely able to do it, and the larger prey is a little less powerful.
Now, all the giant rock bees have been caught, and none of them have survived, which can be regarded as a hidden danger for the surrounding farms.
By this time, the smell in the nest had dissipated quite a bit. Feeling that he could barely bear it, he approached it.
Although the queen bee is only the size of an arm, because she is a queen bee, there is a lot of vitality concentrated in the egg, which cannot be seen by common sense.
Rayong removed the rock that was pressed on it, looked at the corpse of the queen bee for a long time, and then found a clean place and pressed his hand on it.
The corpse quickly dried up.
As he expected, although the queen bee is not large, she has absorbed a lot of vitality. The light of life in his sea was completely condensed, and then it condensed for a small point before stopping. This queen bee has almost a little light of life.
On this trip to the top of the mountain, although no large prey was found, it finally completed the predetermined goal and made up enough six points of life light. Moreover, he also saw a good scenery and tested the power of Chaotian pepper, which was finally worth the trip.
