Chapter 307: Hornet's Housekeeping
The mole, also known as a vole, burrows at a very fast speed, and if it is in soft ground, its burrowing speed can almost keep up with the speed of running. Run all the way through, and the hole will be dug out, and there will be no need to stop.
Xu Mo recognized this creature, and was overjoyed, thinking: This kind of mouse, if it is used to dig treasures, must be much faster than domestic mice.
He walked over and asked the man, "Friend, where did you get this vole?" or not?"
The man was a man in his thirties, and he glanced at Xu Mo before he said, "This is the garden dug up in front of me." Selling, why don't you sell, I deliberately caught it, and I planned to take it out and sell it. Nowadays, there are many people who have pets, and there are people who raise all pets, such as scorpions, crocodiles, pythons, and even cockroaches. This kind of ground rat is very rare in the city, and there must be people who are willing to raise it. ”
Xu Mo directly ignored a large part of his words, "Since you want to sell it, then sell it to me." ”
The man looked at him again, lifted the cage in his hand, and said, "If you are willing to ask for it, take two hundred yuan and give it to you along with the cage." This is a litter, with six big and small ones. ”
Xu Mo didn't say a word, paid directly, and the man gave him the cage together. Xu Mo carried the cage and asked, "Friend, where is the garden?"
The man shook his head and said with a smile: "You still want to look for it, it's useless, how can there be so many field mice in this kind of place?" or told Xu Mo the place.
Xu Mo thanked him and said to Zhou Yu's second daughter, "Let's go over and have a look." ”
Zhou Yanyan hurriedly said, "Uncle Xu, let me take a look." It turns out that this is a vole, it looks so strange. How could its claws be like this? It's not like a house mouse at all. ”
Xu Mo gave her the cage, "This is a vole, also known as a mole, of course it is different from a house mouse." ”
Zhou Yanyan took the cage, and the two women looked around the cage. Six moles of different sizes also looked up from their cages and stared at the two of them. The two women pointed to the mole's paws and began to talk.
Xu Mo led the second daughter and walked in the direction pointed out by the man. After walking for a while, we reached the edge of the rainforest valley, where construction was going on on a large flat area. An excavator excavates loose soil underground. The man said he was digging a garden, and he was obviously digging a garden and planting flowers. Xu Mo looked left and right. There were many trees planted in this place, which were also dug up and set aside.
Xu Mo looked at the excavated place for a while, but there were no other voles. The man was right. This is not the place where moles should be. It was already a coincidence to be able to find a litter. Where will there be so many?
Xu Mo was a little disappointed and walked towards the dug down tree, and one of the construction team hurriedly stopped him. "Hey, don't go over there, there's a hornet's nest in the tree over there, I haven't dealt with it yet, beware of stinging you." ”
Hornet's nest?
Xu Mo's heart moved, and he continued to walk forward. The man reminded again, "Hey, go forward again, don't blame me for not reminding me if I stung." ”
Xu Mo smiled and said, "Thank you, I'll just take a look." ”
Yu Qiuwen hurriedly reminded, "Uncle Xu, don't go over." "A worried look on his face.
Zhou Yanyan said with a smile: "With Uncle Xu's ability, how could he be stung by a wasp? Wenwen, you are blindly worried." ”
Yu Qiuwen let out an 'oh', suddenly remembered something, and didn't say anything.
The two women held hands and followed.
Xu Mo walked to the edge of the dug down tree, took a few casual glances, and sure enough, he found a huge oval hornet's nest with a diameter of twenty or thirty centimeters near the treetop of a tree. A swarm of golden wasps, three centimeters long, flew around the nest and refused to leave.
Xu Mo didn't delay, and directly transmitted a stream of consciousness to the past, affecting the hornet's mind. There is a flaw in his wisdom transmission, it is no better than using the Whip of the Mind to attack, one sweep is a large area, and it can only affect the mind of one animal at a time.
Fortunately, this group of hornets is huge, and there are not many of them, and Xu Mo is fine, so he is not afraid of delaying such a little time. This consciousness was directed at one of the large wasps, and the hornet's mind was affected, and it was immediately subdued. Xu Mo teleported a wave of consciousness out again to affect the second hornet.
It took him about an hour to subdue this nest of wasps, during which there was only one accident, a hornet flew out of the honeycomb and flew in the direction of Zhou Yanyan. When hornets are not attacked, they do not attack people. But when Zhou Yanyan saw it flying towards him, he immediately panicked, and hurriedly wanted to dodge, this action alarmed the hornet, changed direction, and pounced on her face, but fortunately was killed by Xu Mo with a whip of the soul in time.
After this twist and turn, the two women took the initiative to retreat for a distance. Xu Mo subdued the peaks and plucked the hornet's nest from the tree, and he planned to bring the hornets back to the newly bought yard to help him take care of the house. It is expected that as long as a certain amount of consciousness is entered, this group of hornets can take care of their home. lest when he was not there, Fang Bing would come to make trouble again.
The three of them played in the rainforest valley for a while, and then they thought that the rats had eaten enough, and then walked back. Back in the yard, the rats were well fed and began to burrow in the ground again.
Xu Mo found a rope and tied the hornet's nest to the old peach tree, and was not in a hurry to teach the hornets to look after the house, so he came down first to deal with the six voles. He also uses the ability of wisdom transmission to influence the minds of six voles, injecting the appearance of copper chests into their minds, and then driving them to dig holes.
These six voles are similar to house mice, how can they resist in the face of wisdom transmission? They quickly obeyed Xu Mo's wishes and dug holes in the ground. The vole was worthy of being a vole, and the speed of burrowing was not comparable to that of a house mouse, and it was not long before a hole was dug out and dug all the way down, and the ground was covered with dirt dug out of the ground.
Xu Mo looked at it for a while, was quite satisfied, nodded, and went back to deal with the matter of the nest of wasps. Teaching hornets to watch their homes is much more difficult than driving rats to hunt for treasure. What Xu Mo wants to teach them is not only to recognize their own people, but also to distinguish which outsiders are hostile and what kind of methods to use to deal with different situations.
If you see an outsider coming in, let the hornets pounce on them and sting them. It's simple. But if you do that, you will not only add a lot of unnecessary trouble to yourself, but also cause many innocent people to suffer.
The first thing Xu Mo taught them was to recognize people. The time must take a long time, Xu Mo took out a folding stool from the trunk of the car, sat on the stool and took his time.
He chose a hornet, let it land on the back of his hand, and then channeled a wave of consciousness through it. There are not many of his family members, just Han Ying, Zhou Yanyan, Yu Qiuwen and Zhou Yanyan's mother Wang Ting, Xu Mo injected the images of the four people into the hearts of the hornets one by one. If it's these four people coming in. The hornets will not make any moves.
Next are the outsiders, including people and animals, and the hornets themselves will not take the initiative to attack, so Xu Mo taught them. It's how to take the initiative. He thought about it. Animals don't care. Feed a person's shape into the hornet's mind and tell it exactly what to do.
If the person is not his family, the hornets will fly over. Fly around this person and follow. If this person stops moving, the hornet will not take the initiative to attack, and if this person attacks first, the hornet will not hesitate to use its poisonous needle.
In this case, if the outsider is alone, if he is with his family, the hornet will not do anything.
If the man never stops, keep walking into the courtyard. Xu Mo set the warning distance at half of the yard, and once the cordon was crossed, the hornets would send out warnings in a way that flew around the person's head and face. In this case, if the outsider does not have ulterior motives, he will most likely stop when he sees a swarm of hornets flying around his head and face. Continuing to walk inward, Xu Mo set a dangerous line, once more than two-thirds of the yard, the hornets will identify this behavior as an invasion and launch an attack.
The second is the defense of the hornets themselves. At this point, it would be fatal for the hornet not to attack actively, so much so that people often took advantage of this by tying a torch to a long pole and burning the hornet's nest.
Xu Mo made some responses to this. Mainly for outsiders, the family is close to the hornet's nest, and the hornets will not make any moves.
If you don't have any tools in your hand, the hornets won't take the initiative to attack, but they will fly around the person and warn him from approaching. If the person insists on going his own way and climbs towards the location of the hornet's nest in the tree and tries to get close to the hornet's nest, at a certain point, the hornet will immediately attack.
When approaching the hornet's nest with tools, when you reach a certain distance, you don't have to wait to start climbing, just go under the tree and the hornet will attack.
Of course, while Xu Mo asked the hornets to watch the house, he would also set up a sign in his yard and write a warning message to let people who entered the yard know to avoid accidental injury.
It took him a short time to teach the hornet, and let the hornet demonstrate, and the hornet buzzed around Zhou Yanyan and Yu Qiuwen, recognized it as his own person, and flew back to the nest.
Xu Mo was happy in his heart, and went to teach the second hornet.
Due to the complexity of the program, it takes a short time to teach a hornet. More than two hours passed, and Xu Mocai only taught a few wasps.
"Squeak!" At this time, a mouse crawled over and barked at Xu Mo a few times.
Xu Mo stopped teaching, looked down, and the mouse opened its mouth and spit out something. Xu Mo picked it up and took a look, the thing was only the size of a grain of rice, shiny, and it was actually a small diamond.
Xu Mo let out an 'ah' sound, and hurriedly asked, "Where did you come from?" and immediately thought that the mouse couldn't understand his words, so he teleported a wave of consciousness and asked where the mouse got it from.
This time, the rat understood, squeaked a few times, and ran in the other direction. Xu Mo followed closely and found that the mouse had actually walked out of the yard, and kept walking forward, and finally stopped in a bush and squeaked at Xu Mo a few times.
"You picked it up here?" asked Xu Mo using his consciousness.
The rat quickly responded, and sure enough, it had been picked up from this place. It turned out that after the rats had eaten their fill, they felt tired, so they stopped to rest. You must know that although Xu Mo's intelligence transmission can teach animals to do things, they cannot completely control animals.
In particular, some animal instincts, such as eating when tired, drinking when thirsty, and sleeping when sleepy, are not affected in the slightest. The rats got tired, so they stopped to rest and ran around. The mouse ran out of the yard and found a diamond in the grass.
What Xu Mo entered into the consciousness of this mouse was the appearance of a gem. But a mouse is a mouse, and it doesn't have much ability to distinguish at all, and some gems are very similar to diamonds, so how can this mouse tell the difference?
Seeing that the mouse looked up at him, looking flattering and offering treasures, Xu Mo couldn't help but laugh. Put the diamond away right now. Thought about it. Take the mouse back, take out a bag of jerky from the car, take out a piece and give it to the mouse to eat, and count it as a reward.
The mouse squeaked a few times. I took a bite of the jerky and ate it. Maybe you think the jerky is delicious. Eating and eating. 'squeaked' at Xu Mo a few more times, and quickly finished eating, staring at Xu Mo and reluctant to leave. Apparently I want to eat again.
Xu Mo smiled and said, "No, this is a reward for you, and it's gone after eating." ”
The rat didn't know if he understood, and when he saw that Xu Mo didn't give it, he squeaked a few times, and went back to dig for treasure.
Zhou Yanyan and Yu Qiuwen watched the mole digging holes in the yard for a while, and felt bored, so they walked over to Xu Mo and asked, "Uncle Xu, what are you doing?"
Xu Mo took out the diamond and shook it in front of the two of them, "A little mouse picked up a diamond just now, which of you wants?"
The two girls were overjoyed when they heard this, and Zhou Yanyan hurriedly said, "Give it to me, Uncle Xu, I want it." ”
Yu Qiuwen also said: "Give it to Yan Yan." After all, she just lived in Xu Mo's house, and she felt that she was an outsider, and she was embarrassed to ask for too valuable things, although Xu Mo was as good to her as she was to Zhou Yanyan.
Xu Mo thought about it for a while, then gave the diamond to Zhou Yanyan, and said, "If you have anything else, give it to Wenwen." ”
Zhou Yanyan took the diamond, looked at it a few times, suddenly thought of something, and asked, "Uncle Xu, did that mouse find the treasure?"
"No, this diamond was picked up by the little mouse. Xu Mo explained to her, and then told his guess.
Zhou Yanyan smiled, "Which little mouse is it? It is not easy to even pick up diamonds." ”
Xu Mo said: "That's also a coincidence. "If someone hadn't thrown a diamond in the grass, the little mouse wouldn't have picked it up.
Zhou Yanyan said: "That's also amazing, I'm so big, I haven't even picked up money a few times." This little mouse picked up a diamond in one fell swoop, and he was much better than me. ”
As he was talking, another little mouse ran over, squeaked at Xu Mo a few times, and spit out something.
It was covered in mud and looked like a coin.
The faces of the two women showed a look of surprise, and Yu Qiuwen said, "Uncle Xu, take a look, what did this little mouse find?"
Xu Mo reached out to pick it up, stretched out his hand to wipe the mud on it, and the whole picture of the object was revealed, it was actually a one-yuan coin.
Zhou Yanyan said regretfully: "Alas, it's a pity, how can it be the money we use? Didn't that Grandpa Fang say that the treasure was left by his ancestors? How could there be coins that are used now?"
Xu Mo picked up the coin, threw it a few times in his palm, and said with a smile: "Eighty percent of this coin, who threw it in the yard, was buried in the soil and dug out by that little mouse." ”
"Squeak!" After the little mouse offered the treasure, he thought that he had merit, but he didn't leave, and squeaked at Xu Mo, looking flattering.
Xu Mo also took out a piece of jerky and threw it to it, the little mouse sniffed it, and then took a big bite of it, and quickly finished eating, and squeaked at Xu Mo.
Xu Mo smiled: "No, this is a reward, every time you dig up a treasure, there will be a piece, go back and dig it, there will be a reward when you dig it." ”
"Squeak!" the little mouse squeaked again, and didn't know what it meant, and after a while, seeing that Xu Mo had no jerky for it, he went back to continue digging holes.
Zhou Yanyan said with a smile: "Uncle Xu, you are really a capitalist, let the little mouse work, and you are not even willing to give more of a piece of jerky." The little mouse dug up a dollar for you, and you can buy several pieces of jerky. ”
Xu Mo feigned anger and said: "Little girl dares to say this about your uncle, come here, uncle will beat your ass to you." ”
"Come, come, you can't bear it. Zhou Yanyan said, twisted his body over, and pointed his little butt at Xu Mo, really letting him hit.
Xu Mo patted her buttocks lightly, and Zhou Yanyan did not dodge or dodge. Yu Qiuwen saw it, and also took the opportunity to reach out and pat her buttocks, and then ran away.
"Ahh Zhou Yanyan chased Yu Qiuwen and wanted to fight back. Seeing that she had caught up, Yu Qiuwen turned around, and the two girls frolicked.
Next, Xu Mo taught the hornets to look after the house, and the rats continued to dig treasures, and the two girls looked here and there, walking around, and were very busy.
The afternoon passed quickly, and the rats dug up the treasure, and although the treasure was not dug up, a lot of other things were dug up. The original owner of the yard accidentally lost it when digging a pit and buried it underneath.
Among these things, there are books, pictures, toothbrushes, chopsticks, pens, coins, banknotes, and even a watch.
The watch was a lady's, looking at the logo, it was still a Chanel quartz mechanical watch, and the price was obviously not cheap. I don't know how long it has been buried in the ground, but it hasn't been damaged.
Xu Mo guessed that eighty percent of this watch was lost by Fang Bing. In addition, there are many other things, but none of them are as expensive as this watch.
Xu Mo thought about it for a while, so he called Mr. Fang and asked him to come and retrieve it. Mr. Fang said that he knew, and asked him to help keep it temporarily, and when he found a time, he came over to pick it up, and repeatedly expressed his gratitude.
Xu Mo didn't care, he greeted him, and by the way, he mentioned that Fang Bing came to him again at noon, and Mr. Fang apologized repeatedly.
Nothing else happened that day, and when it was nearly evening, Xu Mo took the two daughters back. (To be continued......)
