There are many tree species in the mangrove forest, and Li Duoyu only knows the wood olive, autumn eggplant, mouse egg, white bone soil, and sea olive.

Li Duoyu remembers that in his previous life, Dandan Island built an aerial plank road here in the mangrove forest, and many tourists came here.

The most asked question is: why is it called a mangrove forest, which is obviously green and lush, and a large area.

Li Duoyu once explained to others that the reason why it is called mangrove forest has nothing to do with leaves.

As long as it is related to one of the trees called the olive, fishermen have long found that the bark and wood of the olive, and if you cut it with a knife, even the blade will be stained red.

It is precisely because of this that in the early days, people would peel off the bark of the olive tree and use it as a dyeing material.

Later, it was discovered that not only the wood olive, but also many trees in the mangrove forest were red after the bark was peeled off.

This is also where the mangrove forest gets its name.

But everyone doesn't know why it turned red, so some folklore appeared.

For example, the mangrove forest sucks the blood of "good brothers", so it turns red, and there are all kinds of rumors.

In addition, the mangrove forest is already very dangerous, and children on the island are forbidden to come to the mangrove forest.

It wasn't until an ecologist came to the island to conduct research that everyone learned that most of the mangrove plants contained tannic acid in their bark, and when the bark was exposed to the air, it would oxidize, resulting in a red color.

However, in the mangrove forest, the most memorable thing for Li Duoyu is a poisonous tree called sea lacquer.

The milk of this tree is poisonous, causing redness, swelling and inflammation of the skin, and in severe cases, blindness in the eyes.

Li Duoyu found that any tree name with a lacquer word is easy to cause dermatitis.

In the previous life, there was a ruthless man in the village, in order to avoid the examination of women four times a year, every time he went to the examination, he applied the milk of sea paint to the base of his thighs.

As a result, every time it was her turn to check, seeing her red and swollen appearance, she thought it was some kind of disease, and no one dared to examine her at all.

She was fooled like this for many years, and finally let her secretly give birth to a child.

When Li Duoyu was in the mangrove forest, he hated what he hated the most, and he really came to something, and a half-lukewarm and slightly sticky thing fell on his head.

Li Duoyu now can't wait to have a shotgun in his hand to knock down all these seabirds who are chattering and pooping casually.

Li Duoyu didn't touch it with his hands, but went directly to the nearby seawater and washed his entire head.

It is very annoying for bird poop to be pulled on the head, but even more annoying is a small insect in the mangrove forest, the midge.

This insect is so small that if you don't look closely, you won't be able to spot it at all, and you won't feel it at all when it bites you.

It's more disgusting than a mosquito, at least when you bite, you can still feel a little pain, this thing really doesn't feel at all, and after the bite, the swollen bag will not be smaller than a mosquito at all.

In the summer, there were few clothes to wear, and it was less than twenty minutes to the mangrove forest, and Li Duoyu had already bitten more than a dozen bags.

It's itching to death.

Even as a fisherman, Li Duoyu hates this kind of place, not only because there are many mosquitoes, but it is also difficult to walk.

It is no exaggeration to say that the tidal flats on this side of the mangrove forest are a little softer than those outside.

If you step into it, you will sink deeply, and it will take a lot of effort to take every step.

There is also a kind of tree called Haimulberry, which grows a kind of breathing root that is very similar to a bamboo shoot nearby, and the locals generally call it bamboo shoot thorn.

If you come across this kind of tree, if you don't want to get your foot pierced, you can only walk around obediently.

It took more than half an hour for Li Duoyu to arrange ten ground cages on the edge of the mangrove forest, and stuffed some minced pork livers into the ground cages.

At this time, the stone carried more than 20 ground cages over, and when he saw Li Duoyu, he immediately waved his hand and said, "Brother Yu, I'm here." ”

The stone was carrying the ground cage on his back, but he kept sticking to Li Duoyu, asking east and west:

"Brother Yu, I went back and thought about it just now, and I always felt that the opportunity was not very big, Shanshan was bullied by Xiao Weidong like that, do you think she will be disappointed in men."

"And her family asked her to marry Xiao Weidong at the beginning, because Xiao Weidong has an overseas Chinese in his family, if Shanshan knows that my grandfather is also in an overseas province, will he think that I am the same as Xiao Weidong?"

Li Duoyu's brows were tightly twisted together, his head was really a little big, and he was really a little annoyed by this stone.

"You have this kind of relationship problem, can you not ask me, I slept in the same bed with Teacher Zhou when I was a child, the two of us are childhood sweethearts, and we have never been in love at all, do you think I will understand women, will I understand this kind of love and love things?"

The stone had a bitter face.

"The main thing is that you and Teacher Zhou are very familiar with Sister Shanshan, she seems to listen to you very much, can you do me a favor."

Li Duoyu rolled his eyes and said: "Impossible, the ghost knows, are you the next Xiao Weidong." ”

The stone widened his eyes and said:

"Brother Yu, what you say is a bit excessive, we have known each other for so many years, who am I, don't you know?"

"Annoying."

Shi was stunned, and then said: "Otherwise, if I get Shanshan's son first and treat him as my own son, Shanshan probably won't be able to escape." ”

Li Duoyu was so annoyed by him that he wanted to smoke: "I won't give you advice, hurry up and put the ground cage, if you carry so many ground cages to talk, you are not afraid of mosquitoes and little black insects biting you to death." ”

"Don't be afraid, mosquitoes and little black worms never bite me."

The corners of Li Duoyu's mouth twitched, and he also found out just now that midges and mosquitoes didn't seem to bite Zhao Erniu.

No, the three of them are afraid of him.

And at this very time.

Zhao Erniu also carried the ground cage to the mangrove forest.

Seeing Zhao Erniu, Shi immediately put away the topic: "Brother Yu, I'll go to the ground cage first, and I'll come back to you later." ”

After Zhao Erniu saw the stone, he was a little surprised, he thought that Brother Yu only found him, but he didn't expect the stone to come.

If that's the case, he won't be able to eat Brother Yu's blue crab fry business alone.

He had calculated before that if Brother Yu really wanted 100,000 blue crab seedlings, then he could catch at least 80,000 of them, and in less than two months, he would be able to earn 800 yuan for blue crab seedlings alone.

This money can just be used to build a new house, if Zhao Dahai builds it, then he will also build a new house, so that it will not be compared.

Seeing that the stone had gone to put the ground cage, Zhao Erniu hurriedly followed, he knew that there were a few good places with a lot of blue crab seedlings, and he couldn't occupy them.

With these two people helping to catch blue crab fry, Li Duoyu plans to leave here first.

But just as he was about to leave, he heard a buzzing sound and noticed that there were many bees on the flowers and leaves of the sea olive tree in front of him.

Li Duoyu patiently observed the meeting, and saw that after the bee finished collecting the honey, he followed the direction in which it flew back.

Li Duoyu found a beehive on a big tree, in the impression of Li Duoyu, in order to prevent natural enemies, bees will generally build their nests in cliffs, stone crevices, or mounds, and this kind of open nest rarely occurs.

The hive in front of me is exposed, and the lower part is densely packed with bees.

Before Li Duoyu could get close, the bees in charge of guarding him rushed towards him and circled around him, as if they were driving away.

Li Duoyu has been bitten by midges for more than 20 bags, but he doesn't want to be stung by bees again.

Li Duoyu is not very afraid of this thing when it bites his hands and feet, but if his eyelids and lips are bitten, they will be swollen as big as sausages.

Li Duoyu looked at the huge beehive in front of him, and looked reluctant, but in this era, honey is definitely a good thing.

Although they were at least ten meters apart, Li Duoyu seemed to have smelled the fragrance of honey and couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

Anyway, it's not decent to be bitten by midges, and it's 100% hard to sleep at night, so I just fight hard and take this hive away.

Just do it.

Li Duoyu used the small fish knife he carried with him to cut a small section of the ground cage he had put before, and the mesh of this thing was very thin, and it was just right for the beehive.

But just take a ground cage, Li Duoyu will definitely not dare to go up, he is really not afraid of being stung by a few bees.

It can be bitten by hundreds, thousands of bites, even if it is a black bear with rough skin and thick flesh, it is estimated that it has to run, but fortunately, Li Duoyu has a way to deal with it.

Li Duoyu collected some dry branches and leaves nearby, wrapped them in fresh leaves, and as long as the dead branches and dead leaves were not allowed to burn sufficiently, a large amount of white smoke would be emitted.

A simple smoker was made in this way, and as the white smoke came out, the bees that were still driving away Li Duoyu were all out of order, and they all rushed to the direction of the hive.

Bees are very afraid of smoke, they will enter a state of stress when they encounter smoke, and once they are smoked, they will not attack people very much, but mistakenly think that there is a fire nearby, they will give priority to sucking honey from the hive, ready to move and start anew.

Li Duoyu carefully climbed onto the trunk of the tree and smoked directly at the hive with a smoker.

Under the thick smoke.

Some of the bees were so smoked that they fell on the mudflats, and their wings got wet with mud and they couldn't fly.

Some of the relatively large tidal flat jumping fish, which seem to be very experienced, swallow them directly after seeing a bee fall down.

There are so many bees that they can't eat them.

After smoking almost enough, Li Duoyu directly put the entire beehive in the ground cage, and then used a knife to cut it at the place where the hive and the trunk meet.

At the moment of the partition, amber honey flowed out, and some of it dripped directly onto Li Duoyu's hands.

Li Duoyu licked it, the honey is relatively sweet, there is a faint floral fragrance, the taste is much better than those industrial honey, sweet but not greasy.

And just when Li Duoyu was picking the hive, Zhao Erniu, who was putting the ground cage, saw the white smoke not far away, and his face changed instantly.

Quickly ran in the direction of the white smoke.

may be because he often acts in the mangrove forest, Zhao Erniu can still run in the mangrove forest.

But when he arrived at the location of Bai Yan, the whole person was stunned, because the beehive had been plucked by Li Duoyu.

He guarded this hive for a long time, and originally wanted to wait for the flowering period to pass and let the bees collect more honey, so he planned to collect it, but he didn't expect it to be taken away by Brother Yu so soon.

If someone else took his hive, Zhao Erniu would definitely be anxious, but it was Li Duoyu who collected the hive, and he had no way at all.

Zhao Erniu regrets it very much now, he shouldn't be greedy these days, he should have collected the hive earlier.

Li Duoyu had already guessed when he saw Zhao Erniu's constipated expression, and Zhao Erniu estimated that he had already discovered this hive.

But if you don't accept the things of nature, someone else will naturally collect them, and Li Duoyu will not give it to you just because you found it earlier.

Zhao Erniu gritted his teeth and asked, "Brother Yu, I've been looking at this hive for a long time, I don't want honey, can you give me the queen bee and the bee and the bee chrysalis." ”

Li Duoyu thought about it for a while, and found that it was not impossible, it was quite troublesome to take honey, and he had to shake it out, as for the bee chrysalis, this thing was too small, it was really not as delicious as the wasp chrysalis, and if he ate too much, he might be allergic.

"Okay, then I'll give you the whole hive, and you can take out the honey and give it to me."

Zhao Erniu said gratefully: "Thank you, Brother Yu." ”

For him, honey is only sold for a short period of money, but after the queen bee, the bees and the bee pupae are settled, he can earn more money by keeping bees. (End of chapter)
