Everyone Survives In The Fog

Chapter 22 Beehive



Seeing the familiar shelter, Qi Yuan felt much more at ease, and the panic of being in the wild was relieved.

Now that the shelter has been relocated, you need to check what resources are nearby that you can use.

Qi Yuan returned to the shelter and took out three hunting traps and took them with him.

The forest around the shelter was much more lively than the original wasteland. Just walking along the way, I saw many animals.

This is because winter has passed, many organisms have begun to hibernate, and their numbers have decreased.

If it weren't for the cold current environment, there might be more kinds of wild beasts.

Qi Yuan was not particularly familiar with setting up traps, so he could only arrange them according to his own ideas.

There are many traces of wild animal activities left in the forest grassland.

For example, pine nuts that have been chewed by squirrels; berries that have been eaten by wild birds; footprints of certain animals; fresh feces left in the grass.

These activity traces were left in the messy grass, showing the animals' usual movement routes.

These wild animals often travel along fixed routes.

Therefore, as long as traps are placed along these routes, there will be a higher probability of successful capture.

There are many red berries dotted in a withered grass, most of which have been eaten by birds, leaving only a small number of malnourished berries.

It can be seen that the peck marks on the surface of some berries are fresh. It shows that the birds here still come to eat.

So Qi Yuan placed a trap here.

As for the other two traps, they were placed next to a mouse hole and under a pine tree.

The most convenient thing about traps is that after setting them up, you can do other things.

In the next time, Qi Yuan still plans to collect wood to prepare for making charcoal.

I don't know how long the cold wave will last, and sufficient charcoal is also a strategic commodity.

Continuing back to the white cedar forest, it is still a mist area, with light clouds and mist floating in it.

This time, Qi Yuan started cutting down trees from the other end of the forest, closer to the shelter.

"Bang bang bang."

It’s still unpretentious tree-cutting time, and white cedar trees are being collected very efficiently. Soon there were several piles of wood piled on the ground.

But not long after, something unexpected happened.

"Buzz buzz buzz,"

A bee the size of a thumb wanders around in the forest, making a sad sound.

Qi Yuan frowned and looked up, and found that there were many bees flying in the woods not far away.

Is there a beehive here?

Qi Yuan looked over curiously, but did not dare to get too close because he was afraid of being stung by bees.

From a distance, you can see that most of the bees are surrounding a locust tree. There is a tree hole the size of a washbasin three meters up the tree.

Bees swarmed in and out of this tree hole, making a thin, low buzzing sound.

It's a bee!

There must be honey!

Qi Yuan felt happy and began to wonder, maybe he could even eat honey today!

In the wild, it is still very dangerous to encounter a large number of bees. If you do not use the right method, you can easily be stung all over your body.

A better method is to use smoke.

Putting down the ax in his hand, Qi Yuan quickly rushed back to the shelter and used wood to bring fire.

However, if you want to have a lot of smoke, fire alone is not enough. The generation of smoke requires incomplete combustion of objects.

Qi Yuan collected wet leaves, soaked the sawdust with water, and burned it on a flame.

Crackling!

Along with some popping sounds, thick black smoke rose into the sky and soon enveloped the entire forest.

The fire was built under the tree, and the rising black smoke passed through the hole of the tree, just enough to be touched by the bees.

In fact, it is better to put the burning material directly into the tree hole, which can lock all the black smoke in the tree hole.

But the disadvantages are also obvious, that is, it is too dangerous.

Once the swarm is frightened, it will swarm out and fly around, possibly injuring itself.

So to be on the safe side, it's better to take it slow.

Qi Yuan did not stare all the time, letting the fire continue to smoke, adding some burning materials from time to time.

And he continued to collect wood.

Nearly an hour later, Qi Yuan cut down a white cedar tree and collected 98 units of good-grade wood.

When I came to the hive again, I found that the effect was very good.

Many bees fell to the ground and lost their ability to move. The remaining bees that could still fly seemed weak.

Obviously, the smoke's killing effect is very good.

At this time, Qi Yuan suddenly thought that bees can be regarded as ordinary beasts certified by the system. So if you kill a bee, can you get a wooden resource box?

Although it is unlikely, it is definitely necessary to try.

Directly approaching the beehive, the bees' desire to attack is now greatly reduced, and Qi Yuan is wearing heavy clothing, but he is not very scared.

He raised his right foot and crushed the unconscious bee on the ground to death.

Three seconds later, no resource box appeared.

"It doesn't seem to work. I'm too fanciful, so there might be such a bug."

Qi Yuan sighed helplessly.

However, he did not stop, but trampled the bees on the ground to death one after another.

After all, being close to the shelter and the white fir forest still posed a considerable threat to him.

As more bees were cleared, a light suddenly flashed on the ground, and a wooden resource box appeared.

Huh?

Qi Yuan's eyes lit up and he was overjoyed: "It doesn't seem like there are no resource boxes, it's just that there are relatively few."

After clearing all the bees on the ground, a bronze resource box exploded, which was quite unexpected.

This puts Qi Yuan into a conflict. Should he completely eliminate the hive?

With this easy method, you can get a wooden resource box and a bronze resource box for free.

I missed this good thing, I don’t know when the next time will be.

After struggling with his thoughts, Qi Yuan finally showed mercy. Only the bees on the ground were removed, and the inside of the tree cavity was not damaged.

After all, a stable source of resource boxes sounds so tempting.

For the next time, Qi Yuan continued to chop down trees, and when there was half an hour left, he began to return to the shelter.

It took a lot of time to move the wood, but the white cedar forest in the shelter was much closer, making it much more convenient.

After hurriedly returning to the shelter, Qi Yuan immediately went to check the animal trap.

If prey can be caught, it means that the resources here are rich, and maybe there will be a long-term stable source of meat in the future.

Although Qin Zhenjun can hunt wild animals and provide himself with steaks. But for living resources, it is best to have your own channels

No one can guarantee that the two of them can maintain a close relationship forever, and if there is a conflict one day, they will not fall into the embarrassment of not having meat.

Come to the first trap, the rope

There was no movement at all, and it didn't look like it was triggered.

Qi Yuan was a little disappointed, but he still cheered up and headed to the next place.

The second trap has been triggered.

Qi Yuan was overjoyed and hurried closer to check, but was disappointed.

The trap was empty except for a small poke of gray-white fuzz that looked like rabbit fur.

It seems that there was indeed an animal passing by, but I was just unlucky and didn't catch it.

Qi Yuan felt better. This at least showed that there were rabbits living nearby. And there is no problem with the placement of his trap.

If a rabbit may pass by once, it may pass by a second time.

Continue to the third animal trap.

This time, Qi Yuan heard a shrill scream from a long distance away.

"It's rewarding!"
