"Old Wang, I'll take Xiao Lu to see those two swarms of Thunder Bees!"
"Go for it!"
After Bai Goucheng said hello to Wang Dalong, he led Lu Lu and Chen Xiuyu onto the road next to Caodianzi, and pointed out to him the location of the first group of Tianleifeng, which was on a birch tree by the roadside.
The hive is only about the size of a human head, but it is located on the top of a birch tree, hidden among the branches and leaves. It is not easy to see if you don't look carefully or at the wrong angle. It is more than ten meters above the ground.
The corner of Lu Lu's mouth twitched when he saw it. This tree is difficult to climb. The key is that as soon as the tree shakes, the poisonous bees in the hive will come out immediately. Moreover, it is difficult to reach from below with objects at such a high position.
"What should we do?" Chen Xiuyu felt confused for a while.
"The only option is to cut down the trees!"
There was no anti-bee suit, so Lu Lu had no choice but to bring a chain saw over at night, cut down the small birch tree, and then wait for a fire to burn the bees.
.
The second swarm of Thunder Bees was in the woods a little further from Zhao Tuanqing's meadow.
Wang Dalong and his colleagues were building houses on this meadow, including Unakan and two children. It was convenient to hide in the forest to avoid this swarm of bees. Wang Dalong was the one who encountered this swarm of bees. He discovered it in time and ran fast.
He didn't get stung.
The beehive is hidden in a bush. It is quite large and has a yellow outer shell. The branches wrapped by the beehive are already a little withered, which is very conspicuous.
There was Thunder Bee brewing wine, and Lu Lu didn't want the wine to be too mixed, so he didn't plan to have Thunder Bee these days.
Looking at the poisonous bees that were coming in and out of the hive, which was much busier than the group of mine bees that were exterminated, Lu Lu didn't know how many bees were harmed in a day. In addition to those in the beehive, there were also many who went outside to collect honey and became them.
rations.
After Bai Gou Sheng left, Lu Lu immediately picked up a lot of pine needles from the feet of a red pine tree, lit them, threw them directly onto the bushes, and burned them with the honeycomb covered.
The fire was so powerful that even the bushes were burned.
The two of them stepped aside from a distance and watched as the Tianlei Feng that came out of the hive had their wings burned off and fell off one by one.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, Lu Lu carefully leaned over and took a look. Most of the entire hive shell was burned, and bee corpses fell on the ground.
Apart from a few Thunder Bees flying around, there was no threat.
Lu Lu broke off a branch and knocked down the thunder bees. He saw that there were many bee pupae in the hive, so he packed them in bags and carried them in his hunting bag. Then he led Chen Xiuyu and continued to search for the group of thunder bees.
After struggling for more than two hours, I still couldn't find the swarm of mine bees.
Lu Lu had to let Chen Xiuyu go up a tree to see the flight path of the Thunder Bee. After locking in a rough area further away, he was about to find it, but it started to rain unexpectedly.
The couple had to return to Caodianzi.
After returning home, he picked out the bee pupae and fried them for preservation. When Chen Xiuyu was busy making lunch in the kitchen, Lu Lu heard Chen Xiuqing's cry outside and hurried out to open the door.
Outside the fence, Chen Xiuqing was holding the horse and waiting dripping wet.
"Hurry inside and take shelter from the rain!"
Lu Lu opened the door and welcomed Chen Xiuqing in.
"Brother Lu, look what I brought to you?"
After Chen Xiuqing got in, she was not in a hurry to enter the house. She took off the bag tied to the saddle and placed it on the ground with excitement.
There's something kicking around inside the bag, it's a living thing!
"What is it?"
As Lu Lu said this, he reached out to untie the tightly tied bag. When he opened it, he found that what was inside was a deer, or a female.
This is good stuff!
He immediately laughed: "How did you get this?"
"Didn't we continue chasing wild animals on the mountain this morning? A lot of nooses, iron traps and hunting nets fell on the mountain. This little thing was caught in the hunting net and was almost killed by them.
When I saw it was a deer, Brother Lu, you also had one here, so I bought it, thinking that I could send it to you so that I could get a pair together."
Chen Xiuqing smiled honestly: "I spent forty yuan, is it expensive?"
"Forty dollars..."
Lu Lu laughed: "Having both males and females means there will be more deer deer. They are not expensive, not expensive at all. Qingzi, you have done a great thing for me."
He put the deer out of his bag, and the little thing ran into the woods on the slope in a few frightened movements.
"Quick, come into the house with me!"
Lu Lu called Chen Xiuqing and walked into the house: "You came at the right time. You are about to eat."
Chen Xiuqing followed behind, and seeing Lu Lu limping, he couldn't help but ask: "Brother Lu, are you feeling better from your injury?"
"It's okay. It won't take long. It won't take long. Yesterday and today, Xiuyu and I went to the mountains to look for mine bees."
Lu Lu entered the house and said to Chen Xiuyu who was busy cooking in the kitchen: "Daughter-in-law, find a set of clothes for Qingzi to change into. He is soaked all over!"
Chen Xiuyu poked her head out to take a look, put the fried dishes on the kang table, went to the bedroom, found a set of Lu Lu's clothes for Chen Xiuqing, and brought a towel along the way.
Chen Xiuqing wiped her dripping hair with a towel, carried her clothes to another unused bedroom, and came back a short time later with a change of clothes.
Lu Lu was taller than Chen Xiuqing, and his clothes were a bit empty.
"Brother Lu, what are you doing with MineBee?"
Climbing onto the big bed and sitting cross-legged, Chen Xiuqing asked aloud.
"Those mine bees are causing harm to the bee farm, so they have to find the root. Even if it rains, it won't have any effect on them. They will still come out and cause harm, which is a big trouble."
It took a lot of time to find the swarm of mine bees, and Lu Lu also had a headache.
"We'll see if the rain stops. If it does, I'll help you find it!"
"Aren't you going to protect Qiu?"
"We have spent the whole morning hunting again today, and we have connected with those at the Xiangshui Creek Forest Farm. Brother Feng said that we don't need to worry about the Songling area for the time being. We can just organize the autumn protection team to patrol in the evening. If the weather is good, we will prepare to chase the village tomorrow.
This area of the back mountain will be resting this afternoon."
Lu Lu nodded.
Originally, he wanted to suggest that Zhang Shaofeng stop there. There were three artillerymen from Huilong Tun and several others who often went to the mountains to set traps. Now with the people from Xiushan Tun, the wild beasts in the mountains behind the village were simply not enough to fight.
.
Then I thought about it, these wild animals are no problem for a few hunters, but when ordinary people enter the mountains and forests, they will be in danger after encountering them. If they are not chased away, it is not easy to get those wild animals that many people in the mountains use to make a living.
So Lu Lu gave up the idea.
The food was quickly delivered to the table. Lu Lu specially poured some Laolongkou for Chen Xiuqing, and paired it with the freshly fried Tianlei bee pupae. Chen Xiuqing ate happily.
In fact, in Lu Lu's opinion, the smaller these bee pupae are, the more delicious they are when fried.
These thunder bee pupae are much smaller than the mine bees, and the taste is sweeter and crisper.
The three of them were eating and chatting.
The rain stopped at noon, the clouds dispersed a little, and the sun could still be seen from time to time.
Lu Lu went to the apiary to see the bees. After the rain stopped, the bees began to leave the hives and go out to collect. There were also several thunder bees that were arrogant. He broke off their branches and leaves and beat them to death one by one.
He called Chen Xiuyu and Chen Xiuqing again, and together they went to the forest they had targeted in the morning.
This forest is still quite far away from Zhao Tuanqing's meadow. When passing by their meadow, Zhao Yongke, who was looking around in his room, saw the three of them and immediately came towards them.
Hearing that Lu Lu was going to find the MineBee, Zhao Yongke, who had nothing to do, immediately took out his semi-automatic and followed him.
Zhao Tuanqing just poked his head out of the window, looked at it, said hello, and then got back in.
In the past few days, he had been working hard in the mountains. As he got older and his physical strength could not keep up, he rested at home.
It's always easier to find something when there are more people.
When the three of them arrived at the mountain forest, they spread out and the search area suddenly became much larger.
It didn't take long before I heard Chen Xiuqing's cry: "Brother Lu, I seem to hear the sound of mine bees, over here... Well, there are quite a few of them, they should be nearby."
Hearing his cry, the three of them immediately approached him. Soon, all three of them heard it, and saw more and more MineBees flying around.
Then, everyone's expressions changed.
"Qingzi, run!"
The swarm of mine bees was suddenly not far from Chen Xiuqing's feet. Moreover, they were obviously alarmed, as one by one the mine bees were crawling out of the hive.
After shouting this, Lu Lu turned around and ran away. Chen Xiuyu followed closely. Zhao Yongke also turned around and ran after being startled.
As the person involved, Chen Xiuqing was a little confused. There were more mine bees flying around him. He also realized that something was wrong. After hearing Lu Lu's shout, he reacted and panicked.
As a mountain person, many people have encountered mine bees. There are usually two opinions: stand still and let the mine bees fly around for a while, and then gradually return to calmness.
There is another way, that is, the only way is to run away. The consequence of running is that the alarmed Mine Bees will become very vigilant and chase them until they get rid of the Mine Bees.
As for hitting him directly, just wait to be stung.
Just when Lu and Lu and the others were running away, he saw a Mine Bee chasing them out.
But now, he was staying at the entrance of the hive, surrounded by at least twenty mine bees flying around.
It doesn't matter if he runs, it doesn't matter if he doesn't run.
The feeling in my heart is really no different from stepping on a landmine.
The key is that so many mine bees were surrounding him, and the low buzzing sound was rubbing their ears, and the oppressive feeling made people feel inexplicably frightened.
Chen Xiuqing couldn't stand any longer. When a mine bee landed on his head and crawled on his hair, the fear suddenly reached the extreme and he could no longer hold back.
After slapping the Mine Bee off his head, he screamed and jumped into the forest desperately.
Those Mine Bees that were alerted again immediately rushed forward...
After running more than 20 meters away and getting rid of the Mine Bee Queen who was chasing him, Lu Lu looked back and saw Chen Xiuqing screaming like a ghost, and was shocked.
"You run farther away, don't get closer!"
He confessed to Chen Xiuyu, casually broke off a few branches from the nearby bushes, grabbed them, bypassed the location of the beehive, and chased Chen Xiuqing in the direction in which he was escaping.
I'll count as many as I can help kill.
If Chen Xiuqing was stung too many times, it would be fatal.
At least, the pressure needs to be shared.
Zhao Yongke, who ran to the side, saw Lu Lu chasing Chen Xiuqing, so he broke a few branches, bypassed the chaotic hive from the other side, and followed after him.
The two chased him 50 to 60 meters away and saw Chen Xiuqing hiding in a bush, covering her head with clothes and not daring to move.
Just around the bushes, there were four or five mine bees flying around the bushes.
Lu Lu and Zhao Yongke, who followed closely, waved the branches and leaves in their hands and knocked down the mine bees and trampled them to death.
"Qingzi, it's okay, come out quickly and let me help you take a look!"
Lu Lu reached out to pull Chen Xiuqing to see if the sting was serious. If the problem was serious, he might have to be sent to the hospital immediately.
Chen Xiuqing emerged from the bushes, put down the clothes covering her head, and still looked around in horror.
"Where were you stung?" Lu Lu asked quickly.
"It seemed like I just got a slap on the butt..."
Chen Xiuqing raised her butt: "Brother Lu, help me quickly and take a look and pull out the poisonous needle!"
Lu Lu looked at Chen Xiuqing's raised butt, and his face trembled.
