Lu Lu practiced until his eyes were blurred before he stopped.
He tried hard to control the muzzle of the gun and aimed at the target that was swinging like a pendulum. If he hadn't tried hard to concentrate, he would have been hypnotized into a drowsy state.
It’s too mentally draining and exhausting!
But I feel that I have finally found something, especially when the bullseye swings smaller and smaller and moves faster and faster. It takes a lot of time to adapt.
During his break, Lu Lu went around the bee farm to watch the bees rise and fall.
Half of the black bees that returned to the nest came back after consuming nectar. This made Lu Lu feel itchy and had the urge to get honey again.
Autumn is the time when many plants are blooming vigorously, but when he thinks that this short autumn will soon be followed by several months of wind and snow, he still forcibly suppresses the greed in his heart.
If this is taken away, the bees will have nothing to eat, and the cold weather in winter will kill the bees.
Looking past the boxes of bees, Lu Lu saw a dark swarm of bees at the door of the beehive.
Just in front of the nest door, a low buzzing sound was heard.
Hearing this voice, Lu Lu's scalp tightened.
Good guy, that is clearly another mine bee, the largest mine bee as big as a thumb.
It keeps flying at the entrance of the nest. Every time it approaches, the black bees crowding the entrance of the nest will inevitably become very nervous and vibrate their wings in unison to make a buzzing sound, in order to deter the mine bee that is trying to kill.
But such a deterrent has no effect at all in the face of such a behemoth.
It's too big, has a hard shell, and is quite strong. It can't be stopped without dozens of bees hanging around it. The key is that it's useless to wrap around it.
Lu Lu had seen with his own eyes in someone else's apiary before. The swarming bees seemed to have trapped the mine bees, but they couldn't bite them. When they stung them with their poisonous needles, the poisonous needles slipped on the mine bees and couldn't sting them at all.
.
To deal with the black wasp, the mine bee only needs to open its jaws, click it, and easily cut it into two pieces.
If the bees want to kill the mine bee, they have only one way, which is to wrap the mine bee in layers, constantly vibrate its wings to heat up, and suffocate the mine bee to death.
This is a trick of bees.
But even with this method, it is difficult to trap this killing machine-like thing.
In a hive, it is very common to break into as many as three or five bees and strangle a swarm of bees in just one night.
The bee pupae and honey in the hive are much more attractive to mine bees than hunting bees.
When he saw this mine bee, Lu Lu immediately broke off a branch from the nearby tree and wanted to kill it.
If you don't kill them, if you find a bee hive and bring back food, they will also gather the mine bees in their hive, come to hunt the bees, and then invade. Just like bees after discovering the source of honey powder, they will come back to invite their companions to go with them.
Collection is the same.
It's all for food.
Lu Lu raised the branch in his hand and followed the big thunder bee with his eyes. Just as he was about to swat it down, he saw it parked directly next to the entrance of the beehive and tentatively approached the entrance of the nest.
This cannot be beaten. If you go down all at once, more bees will be killed.
Lu Lu hesitated for a moment and wanted to stab it to death with a stick, but at this moment, there was another buzzing sound in his ears, and another mine bee had arrived.
Seeing Lu Lu standing next to the beehive, the mine bee made a circle, flew farther, and ran to another group of beehives to circle around.
All the companions have arrived. It is definitely not the first time that this mine bee has come to hunt bees.
Maybe there are more Mine Bees that already know this place.
Just beating these two mine bees to death will not remove the roots.
This swarm of mine bees must be found and completely eradicated.
To eradicate them, you need to know where their nest is.
Just like bees, when they have collected enough pollen or sucked enough honey in their bellies, they usually go straight back to their nests, and the same goes for mine bees.
Lu Lu waited quietly.
The mine bee that crawled to the door of the nest kept getting closer, and the black bees clustered together vibrated their wings one after another, making bursts of buzzing sounds.
It seemed that he realized that this approach could not deter the mine bee. Seeing the mine bee getting closer and closer, one of the Xiaomi swooped up.
It's a pity that such a swoop is no different from delivering food.
As soon as it arrived in front of the mine bee, it was immediately bitten by the mine bee and flew to a basil leaf five or six meters away.
Lu Lu quickly followed and watched from the side.
This mine bee was not afraid, and had no intention of flying away immediately. It just cut off the head of the black bee that had been bitten to death by using its powerful jaws on the wormwood leaf, and then cut off the wings of the black bee.
The two front legs hold the bee carcass and decompose it quickly.
In less than half a minute, a black bee was processed into a small black sticky ball and flew directly into its mouth.
Lu Lu concentrated his attention, staring closely at the mine bee, watching it fly high and far away.
With the size of the Mine Bee, as long as you keep a close eye on it and watch it fly more than a hundred meters away, there will be no problem at all.
This mine bee did not circle around to identify the direction, but flew straight up. It was obviously familiar with the road and had come here not once or twice.
It is precisely because of this that the location of its nest can be easily identified.
It wasn't until the mine bee turned into a black dot and disappeared completely that Lu Lu looked back.
It was initially identified that the approximate location of the mine bee's nest was on the top of a hill that reached the end of the meadow, facing a tall birch tree.
It's a pity that I don't have a telescope, otherwise I could see farther and make more accurate judgments.
As for using feathers or films to tie mine bees and place tags on them, and then use drones to track and directly find the location of the hive, Lu Lu thought, but this was in the 1980s, and that day was still far away.
Lu Lu followed closely and walked to the back to a log bee bucket he made when he first arrived, looking at the mine bee hovering at the door of the hive.
Vibrated by the buzzing sound of its wings, the black bees at the door of the beehive nest kept crawling out, some guarding the door of the nest, and some flying around.
But it is precisely this kind of random flying that also gives the Mine Bees an opportunity to take advantage of.
A black bee flying by was caught in the air by the mine bee and fell directly into a small tree aside.
After quickly breaking down the caught black bee, it took off directly with the meat ball in its mouth.
What Lu Lu didn't expect was that this mine bee and the previous mine bee were not in the same direction, but were heading towards the meadow where Zhao Tuanqing and the others were.
Hearing the low buzzing sound coming from his ears again, Lu Lu was a little annoyed.
This situation is not good. If the disaster continues like this, no matter how many bees there are, they will not be able to survive it.
After summer and into autumn, not only bees are at their strongest stage, but also the poisonous bees in the wild are at their strongest. They have been taking care of them for so long, and every bee group here has invested a lot of energy.
The bee colony has grown stronger, and next year will be the beginning of a good harvest... We need to deal with those poisonous bees quickly!
He then looked in front of other beehives. He didn't know what he was doing. He was shocked when he saw that there were more than ten beehives in the beehive with bees on guard at the door. This was a sign of being harassed and attacked.
There were even many killed bees at the mouth of some beehives. Of course, he also saw some killed mine bees.
Chen Xiuyu also checked during this period, but there were a lot of trivial matters at home, so it was impossible to stay by the beehive all the time. The protection was a bit weak, so there was always an opportunity to take advantage of it.
During the three or four days that Lu Lu was protecting Qiu, he had no time to take care of it. In just a few days, he ended up being in such trouble.
In addition to the Thunder Bee, Lu Lu also saw the smaller Thunder Bee.
Thunder bees and thunder bees are both wasps.
However, many people have subdivided it. Those that build nests on the ground are called mine bees, and those that build nests in trees are called thunder bees.
They are all natural enemies of bees!
At the cost of losing a few more chicks, Lu Lu once again determined the approximate location of the hive.
While he was checking the location of the Tianlei Feng nest, Chen Xiuyu rushed back from outside and saw Lu Lu wandering around the bee farm from a distance. After opening the fence gate and entering, he headed directly towards the bee farm that was also enclosed by a fence.
Came running.
"Ms. Duan took the things away and left me chatting and eating at her house for a long time. She even had to cook a stick head on fire for me to bring back to eat..."
As she spoke, she opened the cloth bag she was carrying and brought it to Lu Lu.
Lu Lu lowered his head and took a look. There were more than a dozen golden-colored noodle cakes in it. A scent of fragrance came out of the bag, and there was still residual warmth. He reached out and took one out and took a bite: "Let's take a bite today."
Let’s eat this tonight!”
Grilled meat, a famous snack in the north.
Yichun's meat roasting uses flour and meat as the main ingredients, the water and oil are mixed together to make the skin, and the diced pork is added with seasonings as the filling. The texture is crispy, fat but not greasy, and the aftertaste is mellow.
Auntie Duan cooks the stick-head braised ones, which are big and round in shape, weighing half a catty each. They are thick on the sides and thin on the inside, with a bulge in the middle. The surface is relatively hard, but after it is cooked, it tastes crispy and becomes more fragrant the more you chew it.
Rarely delicious.
Although the meat used is wild boar, which is not as good as domestic pigs, after one bite, the long-missed sense of satisfaction and arrogance arises spontaneously. This was one of Lu Lu's favorite foods in his previous life. Every time he returns to the district
, he will definitely buy a few at the food stall, so that when the elder sister who cooks meat at the stall he often frequents sees him, she feels like she is seeing a relative.
Seeing that Lu Lu liked to eat, Chen Xiuyu laughed: "When I have time, I will go to Aunt Duan to learn from it, and I will cook it for you in the future!"
"good……"
Lu Lu nodded, held up the branch in his hand, slapped a Thunder Feng on the ground, then stepped on it and rubbed it: "Let's go, follow me into the mountain first!"
"It's time to go to the mountains to do some work. Your legs haven't healed yet!" Chen Xiuyu said worriedly: "Hurry back to the house and take care of yourself."
"What are you raising? If you don't disturb these poisonous bees, we bees will have to fly away if we don't get bitten to death. The loss will be huge, and it's all money!"
Lu Lu said, turned around and walked towards Mukereng: "We won't go far, just wander around the nearby mountains and forests. We are not going hunting. My legs and feet can handle it!"
Chen Xiuyu breathed a sigh of relief. If she just walked around, it wouldn't be a big problem. She immediately followed Lu Lu back to the courtyard.
Lu Lu took the semi-automatic, tied a bullet pouch, and put a hunting bag on his back. Chen Xiuyu also put on a basket. After shutting the three lynx cubs in the house, the two of them walked out of the courtyard. When the dogs saw Lu Lu's appearance, they
Followed immediately.
Originally, Lu Lu wanted to leave Yuanbao to rest. Yesterday, he struggled with the cannon egg. It put out a lot of energy. In addition, he followed him around the mountains and hunted a lot in the past few days. He must be very tired. However, when he thought of the nearby people at this time
When wild animals come out of the mountains, Lu Lu feels that it is still necessary to bring them with them. Anyway, it is just for walking around, and there is no need to ride them when chasing the wind.
Chen Xiuyu was attacked by a blind bear in the nearby mountains just a few days ago.
Be on the safe side!
Lu Lu stepped forward and climbed up the ridge along the fence. He chewed on the pole head and burned it while walking deeper along the ridge. After walking many times, the trail on the ridge seemed to have taken shape and became very solid.
Yuanbao took the lead and walked leisurely. The five puppies marked their territory along the way. This was actually very beneficial to Caodianzi. At least some animals did not dare to break in after smelling the scent of these marks.
Ten minutes later, Lu Lu arrived at the tall birch tree he had spotted on the hill. He roughly estimated the location of his bee farm, and searched in the direction between two points and one line.
His legs and feet were weak, otherwise he would have really wanted to climb up to the birch tree and wait. As long as another mine bee passed by the treetop, he would be able to easily locate the hive.
Now we can only estimate the direction and search forward.
Searching for the location of mine bees in the woods is a test of hearing.
But as long as you look in the right direction and walk near the beehive, the low bomber-like hum of the mine bees can easily reveal the location of their nest.
After telling Chen Xiuyu what to do, the two began to search slowly in the mountains and forests, listening as they walked.
