After entering the bird tribe, I want to farm
Chapter 44 Lipstick
That night, Bai Wu went to find Nan Yao with boiled fish.
"Fish fillets marinated with pepper. I don't know if you like this taste. If you don't like it, eat more fried bean sprouts with bird eggs."
"The taste is very special and fragrant."
"That's all I have left, the last dish made with pepper. Before the pepper grows, if you want to eat it again, you have to find the fish orcs first."
"I'll take you there if they get better."
"No hurry, I want to ask you another thing." Bai Wu turned his head to look at the nest where the two orcs were, leaned forward, looked at Nan Yao with bright eyes, lowered his voice slightly, "Have you seen Bees?"
"what is that?"
Bai Wu sat across from Nanyao, and described the appearance of the bees.
"The bees in the vicinity may be different from what I know, but they must all gather flowers and produce honey."
Nan Yao frowned.
After thinking for a long time, he said to Bai Wu, "I should have seen the kind of bees you mentioned at the border between our bird orcs and beast orcs."
Bai Wu's eyes lighted up, "It's not very far away from us, why is there no one in the tribe to bring honey back?"
"Beastmen have collected honey before. Some people accidentally got stung in the nose while fetching honey, and when they returned home, it became red, swollen and festered, and finally the whole nose rotted."
"Then the bee is so poisonous? Could it be that the nose got rotten after being stung by accidental infection?"
"Not sure. After that time, many people mentioned that bees were afraid, and no one tried to get honey again."
Bai Wu frowned.
No matter how useful lip balm is, it's not worth the risk of serious injury.
Nan Yao asked, "What do you want honey for?"
"I saw that everyone's lips are chapped today, and I want to get some beeswax to make lip balm. The bees where I used to live were easy to deal with, and if I got stung, it would be red and swollen for two days."
Bai Wu was thinking about how to deal with the bees, but she didn't notice that her mind was distracted at all, and she had already replaced the dream with the previous one.
Nan Yao didn't remind him, "We bird orcs have an advantage over beast orcs, fly a little higher, and bee swarms won't be able to sting us."
"You mean we can consider it?"
"I'll take you there tomorrow."
"Tomorrow? Don't worry about the two wounded?"
"If they don't move around, nothing will happen."
"Then let's go and see the situation first. I know the way to smoke the bees, but I don't know if it's useful to deal with the bees here. Anyway, smoke it if you can. If you can't, go back early and don't take risks."
Bai Wu and Nan Yao made an agreement. After returning home, he told his family that he would go to a farther place to collect the next day, and he would come back later at night.
Chuan asked him where he was going and who he was going with.
Bai Wu explained truthfully.
Kishi muttered beside him, "You went so far with the priest again?"
"I've searched all over the neighborhood, and there's nothing new. Besides, the major tribes allow me to go hunting and gathering in their territories. If I don't go, I won't go."
Kishi was melancholy, "I also want to go hunting and gathering in the territories of other tribes."
"If you find orcs from other tribes as your partner, then it will be fine. I won't tell you, I will go out early tomorrow, and I will have an early rest. By the way, take care of the vegetables and livestock at home."
The place where they were going to collect beeswax was relatively far away. Before dawn the next day, Baiwu got up, put on a thick animal skin coat, and simply got two portions of food, and then filled it with goat milk to find Nanyao.
When he transformed into a beast, his body was covered with thick feathers and fluff, so he didn't feel cold at all.
The doll wouldn't be cold even in thick clothes, but during the short transformation, when putting on and taking off the animal skin clothes, it was so cold that he shivered.
"It's too cold today, you can see that white air comes out of my breath."
Bai Wu raised her head as she spoke, and let out a breath of hot air to show Nan Yao.
"It will snow these few days." Nan Yao poured him a bowl of hot water, "It won't be cold after flying."
"I hope my wings don't get frozen. I haven't cooked much today. Let's eat whatever we want and get ready to go."
"I'm going to talk to the two orcs."
The two of them got ready and flapped their wings and flew in the direction of the orc tribe before the sun came out.
The place we are going to go today is at the junction of the Cui tribe and the orc territory.
The place is far away, farther than where they were looking for beans last time.Nanyao confiscated his speed and led Bai Wu forward at full speed.
The first time Bai Wu knew that Nan Yao spared no effort, he could fly so fast.
He didn't even need to flap his wings, he was carried forward by the wind from Nanyao all the way.
In the middle, he almost fell asleep because he got up too early, and he didn't feel much after walking for a long time.
They arrived at the place before the sun reached the middle.
The territory of the Cui tribe and the territory of the orcs are bounded by mountains, and the Cui tribe's side is a grassland.
The grassland here is not entirely grass, and there are low trees growing on it.
Nan Yao flew to the place with Bai Wu.
Bai Wu found the bee he was looking for almost immediately.
the reason is simple.
That bee is so big and scary!
Each of these bees is almost as big as a small sparrow, with a big waist and big buttocks, a black body, and a long tail needle.
If it wasn't for the fact that the shape was similar to the bee in Bai Wu's memory, and he had seen a beehive with obvious characteristics from a long distance, he really wouldn't dare to recognize it.
These bees appear to be very busy in and out of the hive.
Bai Wu looked at the big bees, swallowed, and said to Nan Yao beside him, "We have to find a way."
"Have you thought of it?"
"I only know to use smoke, and I have no idea about the others."
"Then smoke it."
"How can it be that simple?"
Bai Wu shook his head, and pointed at the grass in front of him casually, "Look, the grass is all withered and yellow. If we use smoke, we must at least clear out an isolation zone to avoid fire, right? We need to clear the isolation zone, and bees will be caught if we get close to it." Zhe, we are far away, and the workload is really too much."
"You stand here and I'll clean it up."
"No, no, that's not what I mean. I'll go with you. I said I would come before. I'm just saying it's a little difficult."
"I have thick feathers, and the bees can't sting me. As long as you don't get too close to the hive, there won't be too much danger. I will go alone, and the bee swarm will fly away directly after a large-scale attack. It is not so convenient to take you with you. "
Bai Wu stared at Nan Yao.
Nan Yao looked back.
Bai Wu made sure that he wasn't lying, and nodded, "Then you go over there, I'm rolling grass here, and I'm going to prepare the materials for smoking later."
The two discussed it and acted separately.
Bai Wu took out the stone knife from the basket on her back and went down to mow the grass.
In autumn, the grass on the grassland is almost dry.
Bai Wu wants to make grass rolls for smoking, but the inside cannot be full of hay.
The dry grass is burnt out at once, and it has no effect, and it needs to be mixed with green grass.
Bai Wu searched around a lot, but only found half of the basket. Feeling that he didn't find enough, he could only stroke the leaves and cut the branches, and finally tied three huge smoked balls with grass.
Nanyao's actions were quick, and the fire belt was cleared out in a short while.
Downwind he doubled the width of the firebreak and piled in sand.
Bai Wu looked at it from a distance, and felt in his heart that he was meticulous and reliable, and he was more careful when making the straw rolls.
At least it can't be compared to Nan Yao.
"My side is fine!" Bai Wu shouted towards Nanyao.
"Ready to smoke?"
"Okay. I'll light the scroll first, and you can just grab it and fly to the top of the tree and throw it down, okay? It's too dangerous to start the fire under the tree."
"You order."
Seeing that he agreed, Bai Wu took out the torch and slowly lit the three straw scrolls.
The grass rolls are wrapped with grass and leaves, and when they are burned, thick smoke billows out.
"Okay, cough, cough, be careful not to get smoked."
"I know, you stand farther away, change back to the animal shape first, and after I throw the grass roll down, you will fly into the sky. Fly higher."
"Okay, be careful."
After Bai Wu agreed, she immediately changed back to the animal shape, and flapped her wings to fly high into the sky.
Nanyao also changed back into a beast shape, grabbing two rolls of grass at the same time with its huge claws, flew to the top of the tree where the beehive was, and threw the rolls down.
He threw it extremely accurately, and the grass rolls were piled up under the tree, and the smoke floated up, directly covering half of the beehive inside.
The bees were stimulated and buzzed out to check on the situation.
Nan Yao returned and grabbed the last straw, and threw it accurately to the vacant corner under the tree.
The three grass rolls formed a triangle, and the thick smoke from the burning completely enveloped the honeycomb inside.
Until then, the bees finally found out that Nanyao was attacking them, and were enraged, "Weng" suddenly flew out of a black cloud from the hive, and rushed towards Nanyao.
Bai Wu was flying high in the sky, seeing this scene, he let out a shriek, reminding Nan Yao to fly up quickly.
Nan Yao's movements were extremely fast, and he flew to Bai Wu's side within a few breaths, and even took Bai Wu to a higher place.
The two were chased by bees together.
Bai Wu felt that he had never flown so fast in his life!
He was afraid that if he flew a little slower, the bees behind would rush up, and his butt would definitely suffer first.
Nan Yao flew very fast.
Bai Wu was swept by the wind and flew higher and higher.
He looked down and saw that the huge trees had turned into black spots, and the sound of the wind and moist white clouds were all around his ears.
He couldn't help being full of pride, whistled lightly, and uttered a distant cry.
The bees couldn't keep up with their speed, and they couldn't fly to this height. After chasing and chasing, more and more bees fell behind.
Gradually, there was nothing behind the two of them, and there were no traces of bees.
The two of them flapped their wings and stayed high in the air for a while, and Nan Yao brought Bai Wu down.
"Hahahaha! Nanyao, your face is blackened."
"You are different?"
"Really?" Bai Wu wiped his face with the back of his hand, wiping the ashes, "It's true."
He looked at his hands, then at Nan Yao's forehead, and laughed again.
Nan Yao also had a smile in his eyes.
Bai Wu asked: "It turns out that bees are so scary. No wonder everyone is willing to collect insect honey. Speaking of which, what are honey insects like? Don't they bite?"
"It doesn't bite, but the ants with honey worms will. It's no big deal if it bites, it's much easier to deal with than bees. I'll take you to see it next time."
"Then we have agreed, you still have to take me to the fish orcs, and then look for the honey bugs."
"I owe you two things."
"It's easy to talk about, you pay it back slowly."
They returned to human form and observed from hundreds of meters away from the hive.
The bee colony gradually discovered that what attacked them was black smoke.
Many bees rushed towards the grass rolls below, stinging the grass rolls desperately, but only lost their lives.
The attack of the swarm was ineffective and began to fly around the huge hive.
After a while, an extraordinarily huge bee flew out of it, and flew away with the swarm.
Bai Wu waited until he could no longer see the swarm of bees, so he probed carefully and observed, "Can we go over to check now? Look at this posture, the queen bee has flown away, right?"
"Wait a little longer."
The two of them stood in the grass for a while, seeing that the swarm of bees had no intention of flying back, they walked under the tree.
When he got closer, Bai Wu realized that the tree was taller than he imagined.
He originally thought the tree was only two or three meters high, but when he got closer, he found that the tree was four or five meters high.
The huge beehive covered most of the branches and leaves inside, and it was dark and frightening.
This hive is less like a hive and more like a tree house.
For the first time in Bai Wu's two lives, he saw such a large beehive.
He widened his eyes, "This hive is too big!"
Nan Yao picked up the stone knife, lightly cut a strip of honey, and handed it to Bai Wu, "Try it?"
"It looks delicious." Bai Wu said, looking at the honeycomb dripping yellow-brown honey, swallowing, took the small piece of honey, and stuffed it into his mouth.
When he pressed the tip of his tongue, all the honey inside gushed out.
This honey is super sweet!
Throat!
Bai Wu's eyes widened.
After the honey in the mouth is sweet, the bottom taste is slightly sour.
At the same time, the scent of flowers melts in the mouth and is slightly bitter.
All kinds of flavors are intertwined, making Baiwu endless aftertaste.
He directly reached out and broke off a small piece from the huge hive, put it in his mouth, and then closed his eyes.
Really delicious.
The previous jam and insect honey are also delicious.
The jam is sweet and sour.
Insect honey is only slightly sweet, not so sweet.
Only honey is the ultimate sweetness, sweet to the throat, too sweet, but just enough to satisfy the longing for sugar.
happy!
Bai Wu took a deep breath, turned his head and looked at the back basket he brought, and said angrily, "I knew I would have brought a small bucket here, and I used the back basket to store honey, I don't know how much it would leak."
"It doesn't matter, go pick a few big leaves and put them underneath, it's almost like a small bucket."
"Then let's go now! Go early and return early, lest the bees fly back later."
"No, they were frightened and didn't fly back so quickly."
"There is an idiom in my dream called Night Long Dreams..."
Bai Wu Youyou and Nan Yao looked at each other.
Nan Yao didn't understand what he said, but unexpectedly understood what he meant, paused, "Then let's go now."
The two searched for a while on the grassland and found a tree with big leaves.
Bai Wu picked up the leaves of half a tree, put the picked leaves layer by layer into the back basket, and made a simple small bucket.
The two went back to cut the hive.
Baiwu specially broke off a small piece of honeycomb to taste.
The honeycomb was very soft to chew, and had no special taste. After chewing the honey inside, there was a residue left, which was indeed the beeswax in his memory.
The purpose of going out this time was achieved, perfect.
The hive is so big, it is not full of honey, there is a big piece of bee pupae.
Bee pupae are also edible!
They took it back, carefully picked out the bee pupa, fried it in oil until it was crispy, sprinkled some salt, and ate it while it was hot, the taste...
Bai Wu swallowed her saliva.
He and Nan Yao slowly cut the hive by themselves.
There are bees in the hive that have hatched but have not yet emerged from the hive.
These bees have a certain ability to attack, and people will be injured if they are accidentally stung.
Bai Wu filled most of the two back baskets, and looked at Nanyao on the other side, "How much have you cut? Otherwise, let's cut here. Let's save some for the bees?"
These bees just flew away in fright, and will come back later.
Honey is not only the product of bees, but also their rations. Leave some honey for them, so that they will have the strength to collect honey and survive this winter safely.
Whatever you pick, you have to stay on the line. This is the code of conduct of the bird orc people.
The rules were still set by Nanyao, although Bai Wu used a question, it was in an affirmative tone.
Nan Yao nodded, "Have you collected enough beeswax?"
"That's enough. You need to add other ingredients to make a lipstick. That's enough."
"Then let's go back early. I'll transform into a beast first, and you tie the basket on my back."
"I can carry it."
"I recite fast, we try our best to get back before dark."
Bai Wu couldn't argue with the words.
He can carry it, and if he can fly with a heavy load, his stamina is really not good enough.
Now is not the time to be brave.
He nodded to Nanyao, "Thank you for your hard work, I'll cook something delicious for you when I go back."
The two hurried and hurried, and returned to the tribe after dark.
All four baskets of honey were sent to Bai Wu's house. He would filter the honey out with a cloth tomorrow, keep the beeswax for use, and divide more than half of the honey to Nan Yao.
Bai Wu's family left food for him, and he sat by the firepit, chatting with his father and brother casually while eating.
Kishi took a small piece of honey and slowly tasted it, "Honey is so delicious, I didn't even know there was such a thing before."
Mo Dao: "I saw it when I was young, but no one dared to provoke this kind of bee."
"I just said, if everyone is not afraid of such a delicious thing, they must have been brought back long ago. It is still the priest who is the most powerful."
Bai Wu was eating, his ears went in and out of his right ear, listening to his brother blowing rainbow farts to Nan Yao enthusiastically.
"Wu, how did you bump into bees today? Are there many bees in that place? Do you have any special honey-gathering skills?"
"Not many, no special skills, thanks to the high skills of the priest. Ordinary people should stop thinking about them, and eat insect honey honestly."
Bai Wu finished answering lazily, and then said: "I didn't bump into it, but I went to find the bees. I want to use beeswax to make lip balm. Here, it's the thing you leftover, it's called beeswax."
"Lip balm? Let me tell you why you suddenly asked me if my lips are dry!" Kishi rolled the beeswax in his hands, "This beeswax doesn't look like it can be applied to the lips, it will fall off."
"Put some other things in, and it will stick. Yafu, do we have autumn fruit oil at home?"
"There's still half a jar. If you want it, I'll get it for you."
"Apart from autumn fruit oil and animal oil, is there any other oil?"
"No more, what oil do you want, I'll get it."
"Forget it, let's use autumn fruit oil. Let's deal with it and use it this year."
Kishi aroused curiosity, "Do you want to mix autumn fruit oil and beeswax together?"
"Almost. I'll show you tomorrow. It's too late today. Go to bed first."
Bai Wu had been busy all day, and had a very exciting noon, so now he was very sleepy.
He waved his brother to go to bed, went to the kitchen to fetch hot water, and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
The weather was already cold, and he didn't take a bath as delicately as in summer, he just rinsed it off.
But despite this, he is still the sub-orc man with the most refined life in the entire tribe.It is precisely because of this that some people always whisper behind his back, saying that he is strange.
This kind of saying is not necessarily malicious. There are too few new things in the tribe, and anything special is just talk.
Bai Wu could understand this kind of thing, but was just upset.
He did not share a common language with most people in the tribe, even if the wind reached his ears, he didn't bother to explain.
In the whole tribe, only Nan Yao can understand him, because this guy is also a freak who has to take a bath every day.
Bai Wu yawned, dried her body with a bath towel, wrapped her lower body, and went to sleep wearing animal skin shoes.
Fortunately, the cloth was woven this year, otherwise it would be inconvenient to take a bath.
An was really curious about lip balm, so he watched Bai Wu in the yard early the next morning, and Baba said, "I've watered the vegetables and cooked breakfast, Yafu went to pull the fish cage, and Father went to feed the livestock. There's nothing for you to do."
"Then?"
"Would you hurry up and get the lip balm out?"
"Wait for me to brush my teeth first. Brother, do you still have the tubes for making Huozhe at home?"
"I don't know about it. I'll look for it in the past. Do you want to use it?"
"Yes, I'll pack lip balm later. If you don't have a Huozhe tube, you can find me a few small wooden boxes, the ones the size of a palm."
"Okay, I'll find it for you."
Shore entered the room, searched for it, ran out again, asked Bai Wu who was brushing his teeth, and said, "Nothing."
"Nothing?"
"You don't like to dress up, you don't even have a jewelry box, where can I find a small box for you? I have a few shells here, do you want them?"
Shore shells are traded at the Zhibuning Grassland Market.
Orcs and sub-orcs who love beauty have no resistance to this sparkling and delicate thing.
Kishi changed half of the box in one breath.
He originally wanted to give half of it to Bai Wu, but Bai Wu was not interested, so he piled it in the box to collect ashes.
"This is fine, you find it out, wash it, scald it with hot water, and let it dry."
"Okay, what else do you want?"
"Where is the cloth we usually use to filter? You can also find it, wash it, and iron it."
Kishi made a no-problem gesture.
After brushing her teeth, Bai Wu ate something and came over to help.
Whether filtering honey or making lip balm, there is actually no technical content.
It only took half the morning, and Bai Wu had to pour out a bucket of beeswax.
He poured a small half of the beeswax into a clay pot to melt, and then poured half a can of autumn fruit oil into it.
After stirring thoroughly to make sure that the two have melted together, Baiwu poured them out, then added the grass juice of cool herbs, and stirred again evenly.
He poured the finished products into small shells one by one.
Now that the weather is cold, the beeswax inside the small shells solidifies quickly.
They became a pale green paste.
Kishi felt very miraculous, "Is this all right? Can it be used directly?"
"Just put it on and you'll know." Bai Wu took two small shells by himself, "It tastes good, and it should be very popular. You can bring me a few for Xi and the others."
"What about you?"
"I'll give some to the priest."
"Fish fillets marinated with pepper. I don't know if you like this taste. If you don't like it, eat more fried bean sprouts with bird eggs."
"The taste is very special and fragrant."
"That's all I have left, the last dish made with pepper. Before the pepper grows, if you want to eat it again, you have to find the fish orcs first."
"I'll take you there if they get better."
"No hurry, I want to ask you another thing." Bai Wu turned his head to look at the nest where the two orcs were, leaned forward, looked at Nan Yao with bright eyes, lowered his voice slightly, "Have you seen Bees?"
"what is that?"
Bai Wu sat across from Nanyao, and described the appearance of the bees.
"The bees in the vicinity may be different from what I know, but they must all gather flowers and produce honey."
Nan Yao frowned.

Bai Wu's eyes lighted up, "It's not very far away from us, why is there no one in the tribe to bring honey back?"
"Beastmen have collected honey before. Some people accidentally got stung in the nose while fetching honey, and when they returned home, it became red, swollen and festered, and finally the whole nose rotted."
"Then the bee is so poisonous? Could it be that the nose got rotten after being stung by accidental infection?"
"Not sure. After that time, many people mentioned that bees were afraid, and no one tried to get honey again."
Bai Wu frowned.
No matter how useful lip balm is, it's not worth the risk of serious injury.
Nan Yao asked, "What do you want honey for?"
"I saw that everyone's lips are chapped today, and I want to get some beeswax to make lip balm. The bees where I used to live were easy to deal with, and if I got stung, it would be red and swollen for two days."

"You mean we can consider it?"
"I'll take you there tomorrow."
"Tomorrow? Don't worry about the two wounded?"
"If they don't move around, nothing will happen."
"Then let's go and see the situation first. I know the way to smoke the bees, but I don't know if it's useful to deal with the bees here. Anyway, smoke it if you can. If you can't, go back early and don't take risks."
Bai Wu and Nan Yao made an agreement. After returning home, he told his family that he would go to a farther place to collect the next day, and he would come back later at night.
Chuan asked him where he was going and who he was going with.
Bai Wu explained truthfully.
Kishi muttered beside him, "You went so far with the priest again?"
"I've searched all over the neighborhood, and there's nothing new. Besides, the major tribes allow me to go hunting and gathering in their territories. If I don't go, I won't go."
Kishi was melancholy, "I also want to go hunting and gathering in the territories of other tribes."
"If you find orcs from other tribes as your partner, then it will be fine. I won't tell you, I will go out early tomorrow, and I will have an early rest. By the way, take care of the vegetables and livestock at home."
The place where they were going to collect beeswax was relatively far away. Before dawn the next day, Baiwu got up, put on a thick animal skin coat, and simply got two portions of food, and then filled it with goat milk to find Nanyao.

Bai Wu raised her head as she spoke, and let out a breath of hot air to show Nan Yao.
"It will snow these few days." Nan Yao poured him a bowl of hot water, "It won't be cold after flying."
"I hope my wings don't get frozen. I haven't cooked much today. Let's eat whatever we want and get ready to go."
"I'm going to talk to the two orcs."
The two of them got ready and flapped their wings and flew in the direction of the orc tribe before the sun came out.
The place we are going to go today is at the junction of the Cui tribe and the orc territory.
The place is far away, farther than where they were looking for beans last time.Nanyao confiscated his speed and led Bai Wu forward at full speed.
The first time Bai Wu knew that Nan Yao spared no effort, he could fly so fast.
He didn't even need to flap his wings, he was carried forward by the wind from Nanyao all the way.
In the middle, he almost fell asleep because he got up too early, and he didn't feel much after walking for a long time.
They arrived at the place before the sun reached the middle.
The territory of the Cui tribe and the territory of the orcs are bounded by mountains, and the Cui tribe's side is a grassland.
The grassland here is not entirely grass, and there are low trees growing on it.
Nan Yao flew to the place with Bai Wu.
Bai Wu found the bee he was looking for almost immediately.
the reason is simple.
That bee is so big and scary!
Each of these bees is almost as big as a small sparrow, with a big waist and big buttocks, a black body, and a long tail needle.
If it wasn't for the fact that the shape was similar to the bee in Bai Wu's memory, and he had seen a beehive with obvious characteristics from a long distance, he really wouldn't dare to recognize it.

If we use smoke, we must at least clear out an isolation zone to avoid fire, right? We need to clear the isolation zone, and bees will be caught if we get close to it." Zhe, we are far away, and the workload is really too much."
"You stand here and I'll clean it up."
"No, no, that's not what I mean. I'll go with you. I said I would come before. I'm just saying it's a little difficult."
"I have thick feathers, and the bees can't sting me. As long as you don't get too close to the hive, there won't be too much danger. I will go alone, and the bee swarm will fly away directly after a large-scale attack. It is not so convenient to take you with you. "
Bai Wu stared at Nan Yao.
Nan Yao looked back.
Bai Wu made sure that he wasn't lying, and nodded, "Then you go over there, I'm rolling grass here, and I'm going to prepare the materials for smoking later."
The two discussed it and acted separately.
Bai Wu took out the stone knife from the basket on her back and went down to mow the grass.
In autumn, the grass on the grassland is almost dry.

The dry grass is burnt out at once, and it has no effect, and it needs to be mixed with green grass.
Bai Wu searched around a lot, but only found half of the basket. Feeling that he didn't find enough, he could only stroke the leaves and cut the branches, and finally tied three huge smoked balls with grass.
Nanyao's actions were quick, and the fire belt was cleared out in a short while.
Downwind he doubled the width of the firebreak and piled in sand.
Bai Wu looked at it from a distance, and felt in his heart that he was meticulous and reliable, and he was more careful when making the straw rolls.
At least it can't be compared to Nan Yao.
"My side is fine!" Bai Wu shouted towards Nanyao.
"Ready to smoke?"
"Okay. I'll light the scroll first, and you can just grab it and fly to the top of the tree and throw it down, okay? It's too dangerous to start the fire under the tree."
"You order."
Seeing that he agreed, Bai Wu took out the torch and slowly lit the three straw scrolls.
The grass rolls are wrapped with grass and leaves, and when they are burned, thick smoke billows out.
"Okay, cough, cough, be careful not to get smoked."
"I know, you stand farther away, change back to the animal shape first, and after I throw the grass roll down, you will fly into the sky. Fly higher."
"Okay, be careful."
After Bai Wu agreed, she immediately changed back to the animal shape, and flapped her wings to fly high into the sky.
Nanyao also changed back into a beast shape, grabbing two rolls of grass at the same time with its huge claws, flew to the top of the tree where the beehive was, and threw the rolls down.
He threw it extremely accurately, and the grass rolls were piled up under the tree, and the smoke floated up, directly covering half of the beehive inside.
The bees were stimulated and buzzed out to check on the situation.
Nan Yao returned and grabbed the last straw, and threw it accurately to the vacant corner under the tree.
The three grass rolls formed a triangle, and the thick smoke from the burning completely enveloped the honeycomb inside.
Until then, the bees finally found out that Nanyao was attacking them, and were enraged, "Weng" suddenly flew out of a black cloud from the hive, and rushed towards Nanyao.
Bai Wu was flying high in the sky, seeing this scene, he let out a shriek, reminding Nan Yao to fly up quickly.
Nan Yao's movements were extremely fast, and he flew to Bai Wu's side within a few breaths, and even took Bai Wu to a higher place.
The two were chased by bees together.
Bai Wu felt that he had never flown so fast in his life!
He was afraid that if he flew a little slower, the bees behind would rush up, and his butt would definitely suffer first.
Nan Yao flew very fast.
Bai Wu was swept by the wind and flew higher and higher.
He looked down and saw that the huge trees had turned into black spots, and the sound of the wind and moist white clouds were all around his ears.
He couldn't help being full of pride, whistled lightly, and uttered a distant cry.
The bees couldn't keep up with their speed, and they couldn't fly to this height. After chasing and chasing, more and more bees fell behind.
Gradually, there was nothing behind the two of them, and there were no traces of bees.
The two of them flapped their wings and stayed high in the air for a while, and Nan Yao brought Bai Wu down.
"Hahahaha! Nanyao, your face is blackened."
"You are different?"
"Really?" Bai Wu wiped his face with the back of his hand, wiping the ashes, "It's true."
He looked at his hands, then at Nan Yao's forehead, and laughed again.
Nan Yao also had a smile in his eyes.
Bai Wu asked: "It turns out that bees are so scary. No wonder everyone is willing to collect insect honey. Speaking of which, what are honey insects like? Don't they bite?"
"It doesn't bite, but the ants with honey worms will. It's no big deal if it bites, it's much easier to deal with than bees. I'll take you to see it next time."
"Then we have agreed, you still have to take me to the fish orcs, and then look for the honey bugs."
"I owe you two things."
"It's easy to talk about, you pay it back slowly."
They returned to human form and observed from hundreds of meters away from the hive.
The bee colony gradually discovered that what attacked them was black smoke.
Many bees rushed towards the grass rolls below, stinging the grass rolls desperately, but only lost their lives.
The attack of the swarm was ineffective and began to fly around the huge hive.
After a while, an extraordinarily huge bee flew out of it, and flew away with the swarm.
Bai Wu waited until he could no longer see the swarm of bees, so he probed carefully and observed, "Can we go over to check now? Look at this posture, the queen bee has flown away, right?"
"Wait a little longer."
The two of them stood in the grass for a while, seeing that the swarm of bees had no intention of flying back, they walked under the tree.
When he got closer, Bai Wu realized that the tree was taller than he imagined.
He originally thought the tree was only two or three meters high, but when he got closer, he found that the tree was four or five meters high.
The huge beehive covered most of the branches and leaves inside, and it was dark and frightening.
This hive is less like a hive and more like a tree house.
For the first time in Bai Wu's two lives, he saw such a large beehive.
He widened his eyes, "This hive is too big!"
Nan Yao picked up the stone knife, lightly cut a strip of honey, and handed it to Bai Wu, "Try it?"
"It looks delicious." Bai Wu said, looking at the honeycomb dripping yellow-brown honey, swallowing, took the small piece of honey, and stuffed it into his mouth.
When he pressed the tip of his tongue, all the honey inside gushed out.
This honey is super sweet!
Throat!
Bai Wu's eyes widened.
After the honey in the mouth is sweet, the bottom taste is slightly sour.
At the same time, the scent of flowers melts in the mouth and is slightly bitter.
All kinds of flavors are intertwined, making Baiwu endless aftertaste.
He directly reached out and broke off a small piece from the huge hive, put it in his mouth, and then closed his eyes.
Really delicious.
The previous jam and insect honey are also delicious.
The jam is sweet and sour.
Insect honey is only slightly sweet, not so sweet.
Only honey is the ultimate sweetness, sweet to the throat, too sweet, but just enough to satisfy the longing for sugar.
happy!
Bai Wu took a deep breath, turned his head and looked at the back basket he brought, and said angrily, "I knew I would have brought a small bucket here, and I used the back basket to store honey, I don't know how much it would leak."
"It doesn't matter, go pick a few big leaves and put them underneath, it's almost like a small bucket."
"Then let's go now! Go early and return early, lest the bees fly back later."
"No, they were frightened and didn't fly back so quickly."
"There is an idiom in my dream called Night Long Dreams..."
Bai Wu Youyou and Nan Yao looked at each other.
Nan Yao didn't understand what he said, but unexpectedly understood what he meant, paused, "Then let's go now."
The two searched for a while on the grassland and found a tree with big leaves.
Bai Wu picked up the leaves of half a tree, put the picked leaves layer by layer into the back basket, and made a simple small bucket.
The two went back to cut the hive.
Baiwu specially broke off a small piece of honeycomb to taste.
The honeycomb was very soft to chew, and had no special taste. After chewing the honey inside, there was a residue left, which was indeed the beeswax in his memory.
The purpose of going out this time was achieved, perfect.
The hive is so big, it is not full of honey, there is a big piece of bee pupae.
Bee pupae are also edible!
They took it back, carefully picked out the bee pupa, fried it in oil until it was crispy, sprinkled some salt, and ate it while it was hot, the taste...
Bai Wu swallowed her saliva.
He and Nan Yao slowly cut the hive by themselves.
There are bees in the hive that have hatched but have not yet emerged from the hive.
These bees have a certain ability to attack, and people will be injured if they are accidentally stung.
Bai Wu filled most of the two back baskets, and looked at Nanyao on the other side, "How much have you cut? Otherwise, let's cut here. Let's save some for the bees?"
These bees just flew away in fright, and will come back later.
Honey is not only the product of bees, but also their rations. Leave some honey for them, so that they will have the strength to collect honey and survive this winter safely.
Whatever you pick, you have to stay on the line. This is the code of conduct of the bird orc people.
The rules were still set by Nanyao, although Bai Wu used a question, it was in an affirmative tone.
Nan Yao nodded, "Have you collected enough beeswax?"
"That's enough. You need to add other ingredients to make a lipstick. That's enough."
"Then let's go back early. I'll transform into a beast first, and you tie the basket on my back."
"I can carry it."
"I recite fast, we try our best to get back before dark."
Bai Wu couldn't argue with the words.
He can carry it, and if he can fly with a heavy load, his stamina is really not good enough.
Now is not the time to be brave.
He nodded to Nanyao, "Thank you for your hard work, I'll cook something delicious for you when I go back."
The two hurried and hurried, and returned to the tribe after dark.
All four baskets of honey were sent to Bai Wu's house. He would filter the honey out with a cloth tomorrow, keep the beeswax for use, and divide more than half of the honey to Nan Yao.
Bai Wu's family left food for him, and he sat by the firepit, chatting with his father and brother casually while eating.
Kishi took a small piece of honey and slowly tasted it, "Honey is so delicious, I didn't even know there was such a thing before."
Mo Dao: "I saw it when I was young, but no one dared to provoke this kind of bee."
"I just said, if everyone is not afraid of such a delicious thing, they must have been brought back long ago. It is still the priest who is the most powerful."
Bai Wu was eating, his ears went in and out of his right ear, listening to his brother blowing rainbow farts to Nan Yao enthusiastically.
"Wu, how did you bump into bees today? Are there many bees in that place? Do you have any special honey-gathering skills?"
"Not many, no special skills, thanks to the high skills of the priest. Ordinary people should stop thinking about them, and eat insect honey honestly."
Bai Wu finished answering lazily, and then said: "I didn't bump into it, but I went to find the bees. I want to use beeswax to make lip balm. Here, it's the thing you leftover, it's called beeswax."
"Lip balm? Let me tell you why you suddenly asked me if my lips are dry!" Kishi rolled the beeswax in his hands, "This beeswax doesn't look like it can be applied to the lips, it will fall off."
"Put some other things in, and it will stick. Yafu, do we have autumn fruit oil at home?"
"There's still half a jar. If you want it, I'll get it for you."
"Apart from autumn fruit oil and animal oil, is there any other oil?"
"No more, what oil do you want, I'll get it."
"Forget it, let's use autumn fruit oil. Let's deal with it and use it this year."
Kishi aroused curiosity, "Do you want to mix autumn fruit oil and beeswax together?"
"Almost. I'll show you tomorrow. It's too late today. Go to bed first."
Bai Wu had been busy all day, and had a very exciting noon, so now he was very sleepy.
He waved his brother to go to bed, went to the kitchen to fetch hot water, and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
The weather was already cold, and he didn't take a bath as delicately as in summer, he just rinsed it off.
But despite this, he is still the sub-orc man with the most refined life in the entire tribe.It is precisely because of this that some people always whisper behind his back, saying that he is strange.
This kind of saying is not necessarily malicious. There are too few new things in the tribe, and anything special is just talk.
Bai Wu could understand this kind of thing, but was just upset.
He did not share a common language with most people in the tribe, even if the wind reached his ears, he didn't bother to explain.
In the whole tribe, only Nan Yao can understand him, because this guy is also a freak who has to take a bath every day.
Bai Wu yawned, dried her body with a bath towel, wrapped her lower body, and went to sleep wearing animal skin shoes.
Fortunately, the cloth was woven this year, otherwise it would be inconvenient to take a bath.
An was really curious about lip balm, so he watched Bai Wu in the yard early the next morning, and Baba said, "I've watered the vegetables and cooked breakfast, Yafu went to pull the fish cage, and Father went to feed the livestock. There's nothing for you to do."
"Then?"
"Would you hurry up and get the lip balm out?"
"Wait for me to brush my teeth first. Brother, do you still have the tubes for making Huozhe at home?"
"I don't know about it. I'll look for it in the past. Do you want to use it?"
"Yes, I'll pack lip balm later. If you don't have a Huozhe tube, you can find me a few small wooden boxes, the ones the size of a palm."
"Okay, I'll find it for you."
Shore entered the room, searched for it, ran out again, asked Bai Wu who was brushing his teeth, and said, "Nothing."
"Nothing?"
"You don't like to dress up, you don't even have a jewelry box, where can I find a small box for you? I have a few shells here, do you want them?"
Shore shells are traded at the Zhibuning Grassland Market.
Orcs and sub-orcs who love beauty have no resistance to this sparkling and delicate thing.
Kishi changed half of the box in one breath.
He originally wanted to give half of it to Bai Wu, but Bai Wu was not interested, so he piled it in the box to collect ashes.
"This is fine, you find it out, wash it, scald it with hot water, and let it dry."
"Okay, what else do you want?"
"Where is the cloth we usually use to filter? You can also find it, wash it, and iron it."
Kishi made a no-problem gesture.
After brushing her teeth, Bai Wu ate something and came over to help.
Whether filtering honey or making lip balm, there is actually no technical content.
It only took half the morning, and Bai Wu had to pour out a bucket of beeswax.
He poured a small half of the beeswax into a clay pot to melt, and then poured half a can of autumn fruit oil into it.
After stirring thoroughly to make sure that the two have melted together, Baiwu poured them out, then added the grass juice of cool herbs, and stirred again evenly.
He poured the finished products into small shells one by one.
Now that the weather is cold, the beeswax inside the small shells solidifies quickly.
They became a pale green paste.
Kishi felt very miraculous, "Is this all right? Can it be used directly?"
"Just put it on and you'll know." Bai Wu took two small shells by himself, "It tastes good, and it should be very popular. You can bring me a few for Xi and the others."
"What about you?"
"I'll give some to the priest."
