"Childe, be careful!"

Seeing the swarm of bees rushing wildly, Xue Niang fluttered her wings and surrounded Li Xiaobai like lightning, setting off a wind belt that enveloped him, and thousands of jade-veined bees were blown away by the wind before they could get closer.

After turning into a demon, the Snowy Condor became more and more adept at controlling the wind, gently flapping its wings, not only its body was like electricity, but it could also control the air flow as it pleased.

"Let's go!"

Li Xiaobai held the enchantment ball that captured the jade-patterned bee, and flew away with sword light.

The speed of the jade bee is not fast, and it is completely impossible to catch up with the flight of the sword, and after only two or three breaths, it was thrown away by Li Xiaobai and Xue Niang without a trace.

Skimming over the three mountains, the Snowy Condor soared into the sky and then fell again.

"Childe, those jade-veined bees are still chasing after you. ”

Eagle eyes are keen, and you can still easily find these small things like soybeans in the sky.

"And so it was!"

Li Xiaobai nodded, looked at the jade-patterned bee that was bound by the enchantment ball, took out a glass bottle, put it in with the bee and the enchantment ball, and then tightened the wooden stopper.

Although it is airtight, the air enclosed in it is enough to ensure the survival of the jade-veined bee for two or three hours.

"Xue Niang, you are staring at the sky, report at any time!"

After speaking, Li Xiaobai raised his sword light and rushed into a winding river below, becoming soaked in the blink of an eye.

However, he still firmly stepped on the flying sword, and it flew out like a torpedo below the surface of the water before he showed his head to breathe.

The reason why he made himself a soup chicken was because he planned to confirm whether the contact between the jade bees was based on sound, smell or hormones, after all, the hundred miles of pursuit mentioned in that questionnaire was really a bit unbelievable.

It was not easy to find a species that met the most requirements, which made Li Xiaobai curious and wanted to identify and verify it in detail.

The river water is flushed, no matter what kind of smell or hormones should be washed clean, but ......

"They're still chasing, and there's nothing wrong with the direction!"

Rushing out of the river for more than ten miles, the waterway is meandering, and the news brought by the snowy Condor is still a swarm of bees.

Li Xiaobai was overjoyed.

This means that the way the bees communicate with each other is not a material medium such as smell or hormones, or perhaps not even sound.

Because the glass bottle containing the jade bee is wrapped in thick cotton wool, put it in a wooden box, add a layer of quilt, and then pack it into a box, with three layers inside and three layers outside, even if the big movement will be intercepted.

Flying the sword at full speed and escaping thousands of miles away, Li Xiaobai sat on the box, and a soundproof barrier was shrouded around him.

Half an hour later, the figure of the Snow Maiden fell from the sky.

"How?"

Li Xiaobai waved the soundproof barrier.

"Nearly half of them went back the way they came, and half of them still flew here. ”

The Snowy Condor couldn't understand why these straightforward little insects chased so closely, one person and one eagle went around several circles, changed directions countless times, but the bee colony was always able to grasp the correct direction.

"I think that's right!"

Li Xiaobai slowly stood up, opened the box, peeled off the seals layer by layer, and finally revealed the glass bottle.

It was a little depressed because the oxygen was thinning, but the jade-veined bee was still alive.

He uncorked the bottle and lifted the enchantment orb, and the spirit of the jade-veined bee that came into contact with the fresh air immediately perked up, flapping its wings and buzzing and flying.

It circled around Li Xiaobai several times, and it seemed that it couldn't understand that this guy neither killed nor tortured himself, but was just locked up and released now.

The limited brain of the jade-veined bee naturally couldn't figure it out, and finally hurriedly flew in the direction of the hive, just like the bee colony that came to retaliate, even if it was thousands of miles away, it could still know the location of the hive.

Li Xiaobai and Xue Niang glanced at each other, as a small bee, it is difficult to say whether they can fly back to the distant hive smoothly, but the ability to confirm each other's positions is an incomparably magical talent.

"Is Childe ready to subdue these jade-veined bees?"

The Snowy Condor Snow Lady is happy for these ignorant little insects.

It was originally also a flat-haired eagle that acted entirely on instinct, but since it was ignited by the essence and blood of the child, it washed away the dirt in the heart, and the mind became clear, and understood many truths that were not known before, and the fate has changed dramatically since then.

"That's right! A thousand miles away, that's enough!"

Li Xiaobai nodded.

One thousand miles is just a radius, if it is a full distance, it is two thousand miles, not counting the increase after demonization, or even farther.

In fact, the communication distance between the jade bees is not more than a thousand miles, and one person and one eagle only use one thousand miles as a test distance at the moment, but it is enough as a communication tool for the Heavenly Palace.

The Snowy Condor carried Li Xiaobai and returned to the cliff next to the waterfall again.

This time, they didn't catch the jade-veined bee again, the bee colony flew in and out, collecting flowers and making nectar, and didn't pay attention to the contact of one person and one demon.

Although the distance between the two sides is close, the well water does not interfere with the river water.

Li Xiaobai stepped on the flying sword and rose from the ground, rising higher and higher, and soon approached the hive, his eyes carefully patrolling it.

What he is looking for is the queen bee, to be precise, not the old queen bee, but the young queen bee in the hatching process, not every bee pupae will grow into a queen bee, only the pupa fed royal jelly by the bee colony will become the king.

There are countless hexagonal hives in a hive, only the largest ones give birth to the queen bee, if several kings hatch at the same time, they will immediately fight each other to decide who will inherit the whole hive, the winner will kill all the unhatched queen bees, or the queen bees will make peace with each other, and each will lead part of the colony to divide the family.

"Found it!"

After a few zhang distance, Li Xiaobai finally found five or six special hives large enough to hold eggs above the largest hive, which stored milky white, creamy royal jelly, which was the royal platform of the entire bee colony, and would only appear at its peak.

It is clear that this bee colony is at a good time when the landlord's family has surplus food.

Royal jelly is the most precious essence of the entire bee colony, and it is even more rare than honey.

Every bee in the colony is exactly the same egg from the beginning, and there are no king eggs, worker eggs, and soldier eggs, as the saying goes, princes and generals, rather have a kind of bee, but the food they feed determines their future.

The common bee pupae can only get one or two mouthfuls of royal jelly during the whole growth process, and the rest is ordinary honey or pollen for food, while the queen bee larvae can be rationed with royal jelly from birth to death, and the body shape and lifespan of the two are completely different.

The young bees that grow up by soaking in royal jelly from an early age will eventually grow into the ruler of a colony.

When Li Xiaobai was still a foot away from the hive, the bee colony was in a commotion, and they instinctively realized the threat, and more than 100,000 worker bees and tens of thousands of soldier bees pounced on him.

Ordinary worker bees are the size of soybeans, their body hair is white and black, their transparent wings are tough and powerful, and they are very good at long-distance flight.

The full-time soldier bees are much larger, each body is more than an inch long, the tail needle is one centimeter long, and the bee venom is more domineering, not only making people feel itchy, but also gradually becoming paralyzed with the passage of time, even the most greedy bears do not dare to easily provoke the jade-veined bee colony, if they are stabbed too much, the whole body is stiff, unable to move, and it is difficult to escape the fate of being poked alive by countless bee needles.

The Snowy Condor wanted to repeat the old trick and release a strong wind to sweep away these eyeless little insects, but Li Xiaobai stretched out his hand to stop her.

Although the wind can sweep away those jade-veined bees, it will shake the hive, and he did not come to take the hive, after all, he will not brew royal jelly, nor will he hatch the queen bee, and he still needs the help of the bee colony to feed and hatch.

An aura shield protected Li Xiaobai in it, even if the swarm of bees surged, at most it would only interfere with his vision, but it could not prevent him from approaching the hive.

Li Xiaobai's glass heart swept over the hives that gave birth to queen bees, took out a silver needle and tapped it lightly on his fingertips, and then a larger and larger blood bead trembled slightly.

Slightly picking open a gap in the wax cover of the royal platform, with a flick of his fingers, the blood beads were bounced into the selected royal platform, and quickly leaked open, dyeing the slightly beige royal jelly into a faint pink, like a young maggot, the queen bee suddenly twisted as soon as it touched the dissolved blood.

In a way, the bee egg is like a seed, and the queen bee larvae are more like the polymer of the royal jelly, which is quickly absorbed by the incubating queen bee after being soaked in royal jelly with the fingertip essence blood containing the emperor flow pulp.

With just a drop of essence blood, Li Xiaobai immediately left the hive, and with his departure, the angry bee colony quickly calmed down, and everyone returned to each of them and did their own thing.

These jade-veined bees are not as grudgeful as outsiders think, but they can't withstand teasing.

"Is that okay?"

The Snowy Condor is dressed as a carved feather of stainless steel, and he doesn't care about the little bee needles of the jade-veined bee at all, not to mention that the demonic aura covers the surface of the feathers, and the bee colony can't even climb on it.

"Come back tomorrow!"

Li Xiaobai also couldn't confirm that a drop of essence blood could demonize the queen bee larvae.

Although bees can turn into demons, their numbers are much rarer than those of birds and beasts.

One person and one sculpture set up camp on the rocky beach more than 100 meters downstream of the waterfall.

A rough patch of flat land was cleared, and a wooden house appeared there, and Snow Maiden took a circle around the neighborhood, and soon returned with a deer, and there seemed to be a lot of prey in the nearby mountains and forests, and she caught a black bear and four or five wild boars.

Wash and peel these prey and put them in Li Xiaobai's storage, so that you don't have to worry about eating.

The bonfire rises and roasts the bear's fat and aroma, and Snow Lady has her own dinner bowl.

Following Li Xiaobai's side, she is completely accustomed to cooked food, whether it is smoked, fried, stewed, or stir-fried, not only tastes more beautiful, but also easier to digest.

The four bear's paws were added with a little honey dripping from under the jade-patterned beehive, and then braised in soy sauce, and soon the appetizing fragrance spread, and the depths of the grass and trees were all searching, attracting some greedy predators.

The snowy eagle standing proudly at the water's edge suddenly let out a sharp carving roar, and the chickens and dogs jumped within a radius of ten miles, and the world was in chaos, and even the bee swarm on the cliff by the waterfall in the distance was also flying wildly.

The momentum of the Tuna Realm Demon Clan was released, and the ordinary beast immediately felt the instinctive fear from the depths of his heart.

The surroundings were quiet again, and there was not even a single mosquito within 100 meters.

On the second day, Li Xiaobai once again stepped on the flying sword to approach the hive of the jade-patterned bee, and after a night, the essence and blood stained with royal jelly were absorbed by the queen bee larvae, and the thick royal jelly returned to its true color.

He dropped another drop of blood as he did, and then left again.

It takes 21 days for ordinary worker bees to hatch, but the queen bee is far more than that, and Li Xiaobai is a month's work.

With the passage of time, Wang Tai was originally able to swallow the essence and blood in one day, and after seven days, it needed two drops a day, four drops after the fourteenth day, and eight drops after the twenty-first day.

The rich imperial syrup changes the physique of the queen bee larvae, allowing it to digest sperm and blood in the same way that it digests royal jelly.

The size of this queen bee larva is getting bigger and bigger, even four or five times larger than the ordinary queen bee larvae, Li Xiaobai specially picked out several other royal platforms, took out the royal jelly inside, and poured it into the royal platform he selected.

The few queen bee larvae that lost enough for royal jelly to nourish quickly withered and died.

The queen bee who ingested a large amount of royal jelly and essence blood quickly squeezed the royal platform to swell, which was four times the size of the original, and the insect body was no longer jade white, but covered with blood, the body became clearer and clearer, and the faintly visible compound pupils gradually became bright red, which was obviously completely different from the ordinary jade-patterned queen bee.

On the 35th, Li Xiaobai came to the hive again, but saw that at some point, the worker bees gnawed off the thick capping wax.

"Demon spirit!"

Behind him, there was the exclamation of the Snow Lady.

Before her words fell, the queen bee's chrysalis shell suddenly made a crackling sound, the thin shell membrane quickly shattered, the jade queen bee was completely formed, and began to twist her body, with the increasing amplitude of the action, the surrounding beehives could not be squeezed down, pieces of beeswax shattered and fell, the honeycomb cover full of honey syrup broke, and the honey with a rich fragrance of flowers quickly fell down.

In just more than ten breaths, the queen bee squeezed out of the royal platform, the two pairs of wings shook a few times, and soon became firm from immature and soft, and the jade-veined bee colony seemed to have received some kind of signal, and flew wildly, quickly forming a thick bee tornado, flying around the newborn queen bee.

From the moment the queen bee came out, the bee colony no longer swooped down on Li Xiaobai, who was protected by the aura shield, as if ignoring him.

The newborn queen bee suddenly flapped her wings and flew up, and a pair of crimson compound pupils looked at Li Xiaobai and flew directly towards him.
