Xia Qing is not an olfactory evolutionary, but with the use of mobile phones and sight and hearing, he can still track the red squirrel.

Although she can't keep up with the speed of the red squirrel, the red squirrel runs back and forth between the chestnut tree and the nest. All she had to do was follow the squirrel's route, use her phone to locate the specific location of the chestnut tree, and find it little by little.

Although the vegetation in the No. 1 valley is dense, and only the gravel by the stream can be walked, but it also needs to block the attacks of leeches and other aquatic creatures.

After Xia Qing advanced for four minutes, he found that the red dot on the mobile app stopped more than 2,800 meters to the northeast. At this time, Xia Qing was completely relieved. Because 2,800 meters has not yet left the third district, chestnut trees grow in her territory!

Eight minutes later, the phone showed that the red squirrel had run back, and Xia Qing hid in the woods.

Soon, the red squirrel rushed over like a red light and landed on a maple tree not far from Xia Qing. The droplets of water hanging from the maple leaves were shaken off by the squirrels and rained down on the dense grass.

On the branches, the red squirrel was holding big chestnuts in its mouth and in its small paws, and Xia Qing's eyes lit up.

After the red squirrel passed, she walked less than two hundred meters along the stream, and found a large field of wild chrysanthemums in extremely beautiful bloom in front of her.

Xia Qing raised his arm to look at the air toxin detector and found that there was C-class poisonous gas filled here. Closer to the wild chrysanthemums, the concentration of poison gas will be higher, and the bees buzzing on the daisies are also a nuisance.

You can only take a detour.

Xia Qing jumped to the other side of the creek and walked forward for more than ten meters, and found that in front of him was a large piece of low herbaceous evolutionary plants with long needle-like leaves, and its leaf needles were covered with many insect corpses, which was not easy to mess with at first glance.

Wild chrysanthemums and coniferous grasses are not allowed to walk, and the risk factor of entering the dense forest on both sides is too high. If Xia Qing continued on this route, he would either be able to jump over the tree like a squirrel, or he would have to wade through the water.

After avoiding the red squirrel again, Xia Qing decided not to go to the valley and instead walked around the hillside. She had roughly locked on the location of the chestnut tree, and when she arrived at the place, with her ninth-level visual evolution ability, as long as the chestnut did not grow in the soil, she would definitely be able to find it.

Xia Qing climbed up the hill by slashing and killing the insects on the grass and shrubs, but before she could climb the hillside, she found that the red squirrel had run back with the chestnut in her arms.

Xia Qing, who is in all kinds of dangers, really wants to withdraw to raid the house, copy the squirrel's house!

When she finally climbed the hill, she found that the valley was not easy to walk, and although the hillside was better, it was not all the way. After dodging the attacks of the three evolutionary tree vines and a large exploding evolutionary tribulus terrestris, Xia Qing went around to the top of the slope where the red squirrels were collecting chestnuts.

At this time, the red squirrels that had carried chestnuts more than a dozen times had already laid down in a comfortable and safe nest to rest.

Although it took so long, Xia Qing was very happy. Because along the way, she discovered that her "ability" to sense that something was wrong with plants was not only for sunflowers.

Within two hours, Xia Qing noticed that something was wrong with two saplings, a piece of grass and a shrub, and Xia Qing marked all four places, and came back to check when he had time in the future.

Xia Qing stood at the top of the slope and looked down, and found that the chestnut tree could not be seen from this position, so he had to go down.

The drop from her position to the bottom of the valley is two hundred meters, and there are large and small pine trees growing on the steep slope, and the shrubs and grasses under the pine trees are not dense, but because of the large slope and the wet ground, it is easy to slip and lose the center of gravity.

There is also a strange point: there are very few insects here. After the rain is the time when insects are at their most aggressive, there is likely to be something nearby that can kill or repel insects.

This means that she is going down, there may be other gains, and it also means that she will be at greater risk.

"It would be nice if there was a scout bird." Xia Qing muttered and began to look for a way downhill.

Soon, she found a path that the beast had stepped out of. When he descended halfway down the mountain, Xia Qing found the footprints of wild boars and wolves, as well as the traces of wild boars struggling and being dragged along.

The wild boar of more than 40 catties that the head wolf took into the No. 3 territory should have been caught from here. With a wild boar in his mouth, the head wolf can also cross dangerous valleys, and his ability is really not blown, Xia Qing admires.

Walking down the beast path again, Xia Qing found the hoof prints of the big wild boar again. However, she came to pick chestnuts this time, and there was no time to follow the footprints to chase wild boars.

After reaching the bottom of the valley, Xia Qing soon found chestnut trees, not just one, but more than twenty large and small!

Most chestnut trees are hung with thorn balls wrapped in chestnuts!

Rich, rich!

After seeing the chestnut trees, Xia Qing also understood the reason why there were few insects in this area.

If it weren't for the fist-sized thorn balls growing on the trees on the other side of the stream, which had cracked to reveal chestnut fruits, Xia Qing couldn't believe that it was a chestnut tree.

The leaves and thorn balls of these evolved chestnut trees are covered with insects of all sizes. Xia Qing could see the sticky mosquitoes, lacewings, caterpillars, flies, grasshoppers, mulberry beetles, etc., unable to get out, and the gnawed limbs were mutilated, and they were still struggling in despair.

Unlike the peanuts in her territory, it's not chestnut trees that eat the evolutionary insects that stick to the leaves, but evolutionary hornets that buzz around the trees and are longer than human fingers.

The Evolved Hornet's venomous needles are sharp, poisonous, and emit a smell that is difficult to remove when attacking. Once the intruder is contaminated with this scent, other evolutionary hornets will chase after the intruder until they tear and devour the intruder.

"Weak" humans are also the targets of their attacks.

Because hornets don't produce honey, it's useless to catch them, so when the team encounters a large swarm of wasps on a mission, they always walk around from a distance.

It's not that you can't beat it, it's that there's no need to provoke this group of crazy people.

But today, Xia Qing can't go around. Although the third-level protective suit she wears in the field is very strong, she is surrounded by hundreds of wasps with poisonous needles to practice bayonets frantically, who dares to guarantee that the protective suit will not be punctured?

Therefore, it is not advisable to rely on protective clothing to resist wasps to pick chestnuts.

So how did the red squirrel pick the chestnuts?

After staring at it for a while, Xia Qing understood. The chestnuts that the red squirrels brought back were picked up under the trees. As soon as the chestnuts fell, several small squirrels rushed up and ran when they caught the example.

Squirrels are fast, so they can escape hornets.

She is not as fast as a squirrel, not to pick up leaks, but to wrap up, not only this year, but next year.

In order to have chestnuts to eat next year, Xia Qing can't eliminate this group of wasps. Because it is clear that the chestnut tree and the bee colony have formed a symbiotic relationship, and the chestnut tree will not live long without the hornets gnawing away the insects stuck to the leaves.

The method of smoking is also not good, because the chestnut forest is very large, and it will be troublesome in case the tree is burned while smoking.

If you don't want to go home empty-handed today, you can only try the potion she just exchanged with Zhang San yesterday to avoid being attacked by evolved insects.
