Transcending Orc Country

Chapter 4 It's not just birdmen who have wings

Bai Hao knew that there was a huge beehive [-] meters away from the tree hole, but he thought it was far away from where he lived, so he told Ou Jing not to go there to play, and then he ignored it.Who knew that the big bee ran into his territory today and stung Xiao Oujing, which made Bai Hao very angry.

He was afraid that Ou Jing would have a fever, so he let him lie down in the shallow water, and used water to cool his wounds, then lit a torch himself, and went to avenge Ou Jing aggressively.

The large beehive was about three meters above the ground, nearly one meter high and half a meter wide. It hung obliquely on the tree. Worker bees the size of walnuts buzzed back and forth.

Bai Hao observed it. Although this kind of bee is a bit bigger, it looks like a bee, so it shouldn't be very poisonous.He measured the direction of the wind, and it was noon now, there was no wind, and the sun was scorching the earth.Bai Hao sneered at the beehive, and then piled a lot of branches and wet moss leaves under the beehive. He lit the branches first, and then covered the wet moss and leaves. In an instant, thick smoke rolled out. Come out, straight to the hive.

There was a pungent smell in the lit branches. Bai Hao didn't know it at first, but when ordinary branches were stuffed into the stove pit, he and Ou Jing were so smoked that they couldn't breathe for a long time. I kept crying.But it was also because of that time that he knew that this plant could be used to smoke bugs, because every time the tree hole was smoked with its burning smoke, there would be no bugs for several days.

How could the worker bees flying outside the hive have been subjected to this kind of abuse? One by one seemed to be drunk, flying in a crooked manner, and then fell into the fire and burned to death. Even the bees in the hive were smoked out. They flew around chaotically, unable to resist the smoke, and fell down one after another.

Bai Hao watched from a distance, and saw that there were no more active bee colonies beside the beehive, so he put on a piece of animal skin, climbed up the tree on tiptoe, and chopped down the beehive from the tree vigorously with his waist knife.

When the hive fell to the ground, a brown liquid flowed out from it.Bai Hao took a closer look and smelled it, then dipped some of it with his finger and put it in his mouth to taste it, his eyes widened in surprise, then he ran back to the tree hole like flying, took a few big bamboo tubes and ran back again.

This is honey, thick and sweet honey! !

After laboriously moving the hive, he put all the honey into the bamboo tube, and the bamboo tube as big as the thermos actually contained two and a half barrels. This unexpected harvest made Bai Hao very excited.

When Bai Hao was young, he would often poke beehives, whether it was wasps or bees.The hornet's was soaked in white wine. It is said that it is very effective in treating rheumatism. If I can't use it myself, I bring it to my uncle.The bees will control the honey, and the bee pupae will be fried and eaten at home. It is very delicious.Because of his greedy mouth, he was often stung by bees, but he also learned a lot of skills in picking beehives. Now that he encountered such a large beehive, he let himself handle it.

After extinguishing the fire, he took the bamboo tube back to the tree hole and put it away, took two empty bamboo tubes, and dragged the beehive to the river.

Ou Jing was still soaking in the water, her little arm looked much better, not as strong as it was at the beginning.

Little Oujing was a little scared when he saw such a big beehive.Bai Hao patted him on the head: "It's alright baby, brother, I'll avenge you, and I'll cook something delicious for you later."

Hearing the three words delicious, little Oujing turned from fear to excitement: "Brother, what do you want to eat? Do you want to eat this honeycomb?"

Bai Hao smiled and nodded: "Yes, yes, I can finally change to something to eat. Eating meat every day will cause constipation sooner or later." After speaking, he sat by the river and peeled bee pupae from the hive with great interest.

Dax had long discovered that there was hunting at the edge of the forest, because this place belonged to their tribe's hunting range, but except for wild beasts, no orc could hunt in other people's hunting range at will.But because the phenomenon of poaching was not very serious, and the orcs of their tribe would rarely go so far to hunt in the forest, he didn't care.But today, I found a thick smoke rising from the edge of the forest from a long distance, and I started to be alert.

Know that if the forest catches fire, it will be a great loss to their tribe.Migration is not possible, but the food will be much less.He began to turn into a half-beast, and suddenly two full-winged wings appeared on his smooth and strong back, each wing was five or six meters long when unfolded.Lightly flapping his wings twice, Dax's body rushed straight into the blue sky.

The wings glide in the sky, and it looks like a huge eagle from a distance.

Dax flew towards the smoking place.

Oh wait, what did he see?Dax couldn't believe his eyes!

He actually saw two females, one big and one small, peeling a large hive by the river!

Dax knows this kind of beehive because his partner Shelley likes to eat cookies baked with honey, but this thing is very difficult to handle, no matter it is animalized or not, it will be stung by bees.Although I have rough skin and thick flesh, it will still hurt for three to five days.

But why did these two females end up with such a large hive?Is the larger female companion around here?But he didn't find any traces of orcs nearby...

Dax hovered in the sky for a while, and decided to go to the place where the smoke was coming out first. If there is an open flame, it must be extinguished as soon as possible to avoid the fire.

The pile of branches had been extinguished, and only the fainter and weaker smoke slowly emerged from it.Dax looked around and was sure that the beehive was taken down from here, because there were still beeswax marks on the tree, and there was also honey spilled under the tree, which attracted a group of black ants to lick it.But Dax was even more puzzled, because he only found a few rows of messy female footprints, judging from the size that it was the same person, but there was no trace of a male orc at all.

Could it be that the female took away the large beehive by herself?Dax was shocked by his thoughts, he quickly shook his head: This is not true!Female, delicate and precious female, how could she pick such a large hive! !

Dax folded his wings, walked lightly to a place not far from the female by the river, and continued to observe. He found a piece of gray-white fur of a bear rabbit drying on the stone beside the hive, and these pieces were scattered by the river. The meat of bear and rabbit.

The bear rabbit runs very fast and jumps very high. Its hind legs are very powerful and its meat is very tender.Although it is easy for orcs to catch bear rabbits, as long as they catch up with it, basically the prey will not run away, but for females, no matter in terms of speed or strength, it is impossible to catch bear rabbits Yes, let alone only two females, one big and one small.

Bai Hao quickly peeled the bee pupae. He threw the fainted bee pods hidden in the hive into the river to feed the fish. The bee pupae were put into the bamboo tube, and he peeled a bucket and a half of bee pupae in a short while.Looking at the white and tender bee pupae in the bamboo tube, Bai Hao felt that his saliva was about to flow out.

The peeled honeycomb is useless. Although Bai Hao knows that the honeycomb is also a good thing, unfortunately, according to his current situation, there is no way to deal with it, so he reluctantly throws the honeycomb to the river, and then throws the bee pupae and rabbit meat together. Transported back to the tree hole.

The wound on Ou Jing's arm was no longer bleeding, Bai Hao put some ointment on him again, this time it didn't hurt as much as before.Ou Jing just wrinkled her little face vigorously, without crying out for pain.

Dax watched the two females, one big and one small, get into the tree hole hidden behind the vines, and stood up from his hiding place.He frowned, and came to the place where Bai Hao had just left, looking at the beehives dropped by the river and a few unobvious bloodstains of bears and rabbits.Handling bloody prey has always been the job of the male orcs.The females in the tribe generally only need to pick some wild fruits to make jam, or bake some pancakes, and marinate the processed meat.No female would kill her prey by herself, and even if she wanted to, the male orc would not be willing to do so.

But the female just now not only slaughtered a bear rabbit, but also picked off such a large beehive without being injured, which really surprised Dax.

He felt that it was necessary for him to tell the leader about this. If the two females did not have a partner, then they had to take them into the tribe. After all, the tribe would be much safer than the forest.

Just as Dax spread his wings and was about to fly away, he looked at the beehive under his feet and turned around twice reluctantly. He estimated that the female would not want this, so he took the beehive in his hand and flew away ...

If you can, then you can have pancakes with honeycomb for dinner... delicious! !

As night fell, all the orcs who went hunting came back, and a bonfire was lit in the square in the middle of the tribe. All the females in the tribe would come out to welcome their partners, or brothers, or children. When the cake was brought up, the male orc divided the slaughtered beast into pieces, left enough to eat a meal and roasted it on the fire, and divided the rest into pieces for the female orc to take home. Marinate it up.

Dax finds the leader Leitri and tells him everything he saw today.

Rachel is the leader of this tribe, and his father, Keruisi, was also the leader of this tribe, but he retired because of his age.The most suitable male orc to be the leader was elected by all the orcs, so Rachel was elected with an overwhelming number of votes.

Rachel was eating the sweet honeycomb pancakes, and she was stunned when she heard Dax's words: "You mean, there are two females, possibly mother and child, who live alone in the Tuya Forest. Edge? No male orcs?"

"Yes, according to my observation, there aren't any male orcs." Dax nodded.

"They will catch bear rabbits themselves, and also get a huge beehive?" Rachel continued.

"Yes, it's the honeycomb cookie you ate. They threw away the honeycomb and didn't want it. I picked it up and made it for Shelley." Dax shrugged.

"Impossible!" Rachel ate a pancake in two bites: "How could there be females living in the Tuya Forest, which is so dangerous for them, even if it is on the edge... Besides, where did they get the strength to catch bears? rabbit?"

Dax spread his hands: "Although I didn't see how they caught the bear rabbits and how to get the honeycomb, I saw them peeling the honeycomb by the river with my own eyes, and there were already cut rabbit meat around. I I don't think any female would do these things."

Rachel frowned and waved her hand: "Go and take a look with me, if they really don't have male protection, bring them to the tribe... Oh, yes, it's best to bring your snow Lai, females communicate better with females, if we were so reckless in the past, if there were females with males, it would cause unnecessary misunderstandings."

Dax nodded, he thought the same way: "Shall we go now?"

"Yes." Rachel stood up, her tall body was strong and powerful: "The forest at night is too dangerous, I can't let the female stay in such a dangerous place!"
