Chapter 145 Queen Bee
“Get the honey out quickly.” Brother Nan pointed to the bowl placed at the crack.
Less than half a bowl of honey has already flowed into the bowl.
"good."
Li Mu went into the house and took a few glass jars, put on disposable gloves, tore open the honeycomb bit by bit, and squeezed the honey inside.
The mother bear and the two little black bears squatted by the table, watching eagerly.
Li Mu didn't squeeze the honey too cleanly. After leaving a little bit, he handed a torn piece of honeycomb to Mother Bear.
The mother bear immediately happily held it and started licking it.
The two little bear cubs looked at their mother and drooled.
"Don't worry, I'll give you this piece." Li Mu tore off another piece and squeezed it against the mouth of the bottle.
Not long after, two little bear cubs were licking each other, making a squeaking sound.
The kittens, babies and the onlookers all got a small piece of the hive.
Fortunately, the hive is big enough and divided enough.
"Do you want to try a piece?" Li Mu saw Brother Nan staring at the honey, and tore off a small piece and handed it to her.
Not surprisingly, he was disliked by Brother Nan.
Then Brother Nan went back to the house and took a small spoon, dug out a little squeezed honey from the bottle and put it into his mouth.
"Bashi!"
Brother Nan's eyes narrowed, "It's sweet but not too greasy, just like the hundred-flower nectar you picked last time."
Li Mu glanced at the handsome man on the roof and said nothing.
All the animals were lowering their heads to lick the remaining honey on the hive, except for the stung wolf cub.
He lay pitifully on the ground, holding the ice pack with his two little paws and pressing it against it. From his mouth, which looked like a steamed bun, a string of saliva flowed out.
"Next time when you go to get honey, stop being curious. If you see me running, just run with me." Brother Nan looked at the pitiful look of the little wolf cub and shook his head.
He got up and went back to the house. When he came out, he had a syringe without a needle in his hand. He walked to the table, dug out a spoonful of honey, sucked it in with the syringe, then walked to the wolf cub and squatted down.
"Where did you get the syringe?" Li Mu asked curiously.
"You gave it to me." Brother Nan put the syringe to the little wolf cub's mouth and slowly pushed in a little honey. "You gave her the injection last time when the yogurt fungus was poisoned. I didn't let me handle the syringe."
"You stayed."
"The needle has been disposed of. I thought I would keep the syringe in case it would be convenient to suck something in the future. I will use it now." Brother Nan grinned, as if I still had the foresight.
"That's it."
"I washed it clean, several times."
Li Mu nodded and continued to squeeze the honey.
After Brother Nan fed the cub honey, he went to the faucet to clean the syringe.
"Ni Mu, can this also be used as a fruit scratcher?" The kitten licked the remaining honey on the hive, licked its mouth, and looked up at Li Mu squeezing the honey.
"OK."
Li Mu looked at the kitten, glanced at Brother Nan, and whispered: "Master Yogurt will keep secrets for Brother Nan now."
"What's the point of keeping a secret?"
"When you went out, I asked you what you were going to do. Tell me when you come back." Li Mu paused, "Did Brother Nan not let you say it?"
"Yes."
"But how do you know Brother Nan won't let you say it?"
"Yes."
The kitten tilted his head, and his big eyes suddenly became confused, flashing with thought. After a while, he raised his head and said, "That's how Lord Yoghurt knows."
"What about being more specific?"
"Be more specific~"
"You probably can't understand what Brother Nan said."
"You don't understand."
"Then what did Brother Nan tell you, to let you know that he was going to collect honey or not to tell me?" Li Mu guided the kitten bit by bit.
"Brother Lan showed me the jars of honey."
The kitten's voice was soft and spoke slowly, as if she was recalling the scene when Brother Nan and she were conspiring in the house, "Brother Lan pointed in the direction of the forest and said a lot, and even showed me a picture of you and Mama Bear. "
".Is it a photo?"
"photo."
"This needs to be accurate." "?"
"It's okay, Mr. Yoghurt, please continue talking."
"Hmm."
The kitten thought for a while, "No more."
"Just like this, Master Yoghurt knows that Brother Nan is going to take you to collect honey?"
"Master Yoghurt didn't know it at first, but he found out later."
"That's it." Li Mu vaguely understood something and looked at the cub licking the honey, "Did you know that Brother Nan went to collect honey before you went out?"
A group of cubs turned to look at him, their eyes clear and confused.
"It's okay, keep eating."
"oh."
The cubs continued to chirp.
In fact, the cubs didn’t even know they were collecting honey before they went out.
They often play with Brother Nan and have become accustomed to following her.
The communication with the animals relies entirely on yogurt.
Yoghurt is already smart, and after talking to him every day, he can already understand some common and simple short sentences in human language.
Coupled with the help of Brother Nan's rich body language and the photos shown to her, Xiaomao can roughly guess part of Brother Nan's meaning.
The smooth implementation of this project is inseparable from the contribution of Mao Mao.
"What are you muttering about?" Brother Nan finished cleaning the syringe and came back shaking the water drops.
"I said that yogurt did a lot of work in collecting honey this time."
"That's right!" Brother Nan bent down and picked up the kitten, sat on a chair and stroked her gently, "I decided to promote Yogurt to be the deputy leader of my independent group."
After saying that, Brother Nan glanced at Li Mu, "What did you give Yogurt? I found that she is smart, much smarter than my winter melon."
"Master Yoghurt is extremely talented and smart."
"Yes!"
Brother Nan looked at Li Mu and Xiaomao who were answering, his eyes flickering.
This hive is larger than the one Xiaoshuai brought back last time. Li Mu has already filled six cans of honey, and there is still a small piece of the hive that has not been completely squeezed.
Li Mu took a new glass jar and tore open the last piece of honeycomb.
At this time, there was suddenly some buzzing noise inside.
Li Mu was stunned.
Are there still bees in there?
Just when he was surprised, a bee crawled out from the hive.
This bee is completely different from ordinary bees.
Its body is larger, its body is slender, especially its abdomen, and its wings can only cover half of its abdomen.
"What is this? Why is there still a bee?" Brother Nan's head came over.
"This should be a female bee." Li Mu recognized the identity of the bee that emerged.
"Mother bee?"
"It's the queen bee among beekeepers, also called the queen bee."
"Oh, so it's the queen of the hive?"
"Well, you could say that."
Li Mu nodded, "There is only one queen bee in a hive, and all members of the bee colony can be said to be her children. The worker bees and drone bees serve her, and she is only responsible for laying eggs and reproducing."
The mother bear who was chewing the honeycomb saw another bee coming over and was about to slap it to death.
The queen was so frightened that she wanted to fly away, but the honey stuck to her wings and she couldn't fly at all.
"Don't hurt it." Li Mu stopped the bear mother.
The mother bear looked at him doubtfully, then squatted back on the ground and licked the honeycomb.
"Do you want to raise it?" Brother Nan asked.
"Try it. If you develop it, you won't have to risk picking beehives anymore."
Li Mu carefully picked up the queen bee and placed it in the palm of her hand.
