Chapter 145 Queen Bee "Hurry up and get the honey out." Brother Nan pointed at the bowl placed at the crack. Half a bowl of honey has already flowed into the bowl. "it is good." Li Mu went into the house and took out a few glass jars. He put on disposable gloves, tore open the honeycomb bit by bit, and squeezed the honey inside. The mother bear and her two little black bears squatted beside the table, watching eagerly. Li Mu didn't squeeze out the honey too cleanly, so there was a little left. He then tore off a piece of honeycomb and handed it to Mother Bear. The mother bear immediately held the food and started licking it happily. The two bear cubs drooled at their mother. "Don't worry, this piece is for you." Li Mu tore off another piece and squeezed it against the bottle mouth. Soon, the two little bear cubs were licking each other, making loud smacking sounds.
The kittens, cubs, and the watching monkeys all got a small piece of the honeycomb. Fortunately, the beehive is big enough to be divided. "Do you want to try a piece?" Li Mu saw Brother Nan staring at the honey, so he tore off a small piece and handed it to her. As expected, Brother Nan disliked him. Then Brother Nan went back to the house, got a small spoon, scooped some squeezed honey from the bottle and put it into his mouth. "Bashi!" Brother Nan narrowed his eyes, "It's sweet but not greasy, just like the hundred-flower honey you collected last time." Li Mu glanced at Xiao Shuai on the rooftop and said nothing. The animals were all licking the remaining honey on the hive, except for the stung wolf cub who did not eat it. Lying on the ground pitifully, its two little paws held an ice pack, its mouth that looked like a steamed bun sticking out of it, a string of saliva flowing out. "Next time you go to collect honey, don't be curious and just follow me when you see me running." Brother Nan looked at the pitiful appearance of the little wolf cub and shook his head. He got up and went back to the house. When he came out, he was holding a syringe without a needle in his hand. He walked to the table, scooped a spoonful of honey, sucked it in with the syringe, then walked to the wolf cub and squatted down. "Where did the syringe come from?" Li Mu asked curiously. "You gave it to me." Brother Nan put the syringe next to the wolf cub's mouth and slowly pushed a little honey into it. "Last time when she was poisoned by yogurt mushrooms, you gave her the injection. Didn't I handle the syringe?" "You stayed." "I've dealt with the needle, but I kept the syringe in case it came in handy for sucking something out in the future. Now it's being used." Brother Nan grinned, as if I had foresight. "That's it." "I washed it clean, several times." Li Mu nodded and continued to squeeze the honey.
After feeding the wolf cub honey, Brother Nan 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 honeycomb, 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, "Mr. Yogurt will keep secrets for Brother Nan now." "What is keeping a secret?" "When you were leaving, I asked you what you were doing, and you said you would tell me when you got back." Li Mu paused, "Did Brother Nan not let you tell me?" "correct." "But how do you know Brother Nan won't let you say it?" "Yes." The kitten tilted its head, and its big eyes suddenly became confused, flashing with a thoughtful light. After a while, it raised its head and said, "That's how Master Yogurt knew it." "What about being more specific?" "Please be more specific~" "You probably don't understand what Brother Nan said." “I don’t understand.” "Then what did Brother Nan tell you to do? Did he let you know that you were going to collect honey instead of telling me?" Li Mu guided the kitten step by step. "Brother Lan showed me the jars of honey." The kitten spoke softly and slowly, as if she was recalling the scene where Brother Nan was plotting with her in the house. "Brother Lan pointed in the direction of the forest and said a lot. He also showed me the film of you and Mama Bear." ".Is it a photo?" "photo." "This needs to be said accurately." "?" "It's alright, Master Yogurt, please continue." "Well." The kitten thought for a moment and said, "No more." "Just like this, Master Yogurt, do you know that Brother Nan is going to take you to collect honey?" "Mr. Yogurt didn't know at first, but he found out later." "Is that so?" Li Mu vaguely understood something and looked at the cubs licking the honey. "Did you know that Brother Nan was going to collect honey before you left?" A group of cubs turned their heads to look at him, their eyes clear and ignorant. "It's okay, keep eating."
"Oh." The cubs continued to baaaaaaaaaaa. In fact, the cubs didn't know they were going to collect honey before they went out. They often play with Sister Nan and have become accustomed to following her. All the communication between animals depends on yogurt. Yogurt is smart, and by talking to him every day, he can already understand some common and simple short sentences in human language. With the help of Brother Nan's rich body language and the photos he showed her, the kitten could roughly guess part of what Brother Nan meant. The successful implementation of this project is inseparable from the contribution of the kitten. "What are you guys whispering about?" Brother Nan finished cleaning the syringe and walked back, shaking off the water droplets. "I said that yogurt played a big role in this honey harvest." "That's right!" Brother Nan bent down and picked up the kitten, then sat on the chair and stroked her gently, "I decided to promote Suanyou to be the deputy head of my independent regiment." After saying that, Brother Nan glanced at Li Mu and said, "What did you feed Yogurt? I found that she is very smart, much smarter than my winter melon." "Lord Yogurt is gifted and naturally smart." "Yes!" Brother Nan looked at Li Mu and Xiaomao who were talking to each other, his eyes flickering. This beehive is bigger than the one Xiao Shuai brought back last time. Li Mu has already filled six jars of honey, and there is still a small piece of honeycomb left. Li Mu took a new glass jar and tore open the last piece of honeycomb. At this moment, some buzzing sounds suddenly came from inside. Li Mu was stunned. Are there any bees in there? Just as I was wondering, a bee crawled out of the hive. This bee is completely different from ordinary bees. It is larger and has an elongated body, especially the abdomen, where its wings only cover half of its belly. "What is this? Why is there a bee?" Brother Nan also leaned over. "This should be the mother bee." Li Mu recognized the identity of the bee that came out. "Mother bee?" "It's what beekeepers call 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 beehive. All members of the colony can be said to be its children. The worker bees and drones all serve it. It is only responsible for laying eggs and reproduction." The mother bear who was chewing the honeycomb saw there was still a bee, so she came over and was about to kill it. The queen bee was so scared 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 mother bear. The mother bear looked at him in confusion, then squatted back on the ground to lick the hive. "Do you want to keep it?" Brother Nan asked. "Try it. If it grows successfully, you won't have to take risks to pick beehives anymore." Li Mu carefully picked up the queen bee and placed it in his palm.
