Chapter 191 (continued)
They walked on for a while, with Chasing Clouds swirling overhead, and the little creatures made all sorts of noises as they walked deeper into the Linzi.
These calls startled some animals, especially some birds.
Shi Wen this, Shi Wen turned to Yan Kexing and muttered in a low voice, "It seems we'll have to train them again when we get back, so they won't make so much noise when they're out, and won't disturb the wild animals."
Yan Kexing: "As long as they don't bite, it's fine. Wild animals are used to all sorts of disturbances."
Zhu Ji hearing was good, chimed in casually, "Exactly, it's not like they come to bother us every day. What's wrong with them coming over once in a while?"
Shi Wen sighed, "How come you guys spoil them even more than I do?"
Zhu Ji laughed, "If your little one could talk, he'd have to call me uncle according to seniority."
Lin Chengqian chuckled from the side, "So, do the little ones have to call Brother Shi 'Dad'?"
Zhu Ji glanced at Shi Wen and chuckled, "Then it depends on whether he wants it or not."
Just as they were exchanging pleasantries, the Wolf King ahead let out a howl that echoed through the dense forest.
Upon Shi Wen the voice, Shi Wen immediately said, "The Wolf King may have made a gain."
After saying that, Shi Wen shouted ahead, "Wolf King, you guys stay there and don't go near the hornet's nest. Be careful not to get stung. We're coming right away."
Everyone quickened their pace and hurried toward the direction of the Wolf King's howl.
Gong Jiang was struggling to carry the equipment, so Yan Kexing took it from him and continued walking forward with ease.
The three of them then caught up.
Lin Chengqian, panting, said, "I thought Chasing Clouds would be the first to discover the hornet's nest, but I didn't expect the Wolf King to beat me to it."
Shi Wen, "Maybe it got lucky this time."
When they arrived, the Wolf King was under the hornet's nest, and Heiwa, Fu Wa, and several other dogs were also standing there waiting.
Shi Wen at the dogs' positions and suddenly felt that their positions were a bit strange, but he couldn't quite put his Shi Wen on what it was.
Shi Wen was looking at the dogs, pondering further, Lin Chengqian blurted out, "Holy crap! This hornet's nest is huge!"
Shi Wen up, one sees a hornet's nest nestled between the trunk and branches of a Mongolian oak tree, completely encasing the trunk and making it look like a small treehouse.
It was indeed a very large hornet's nest.
The wasps were going in and out.
Compared to bees, wasps are calmer creatures, and people standing a short distance away are unlikely to be stung.
If they stood in front of the beehive at this distance, the bees would definitely come out and give them a piece of their mind.
Ge Yue shielded his forehead with his hand. "This hornet's nest is huge, what should we do? Should we put on protective suits first?"
Shi Wen nodded. "Put on your protective suits first. Those who aren't removing the hornet's nest should retreat several dozen meters to a safe area."
Lin Chengqian: "Shall we make torches?"
Shi Wen, "No, just spray some mist. It's not safe to make torches."
Smoke can also interfere with wasps' pheromones; in the presence of thick smoke, their aggressiveness is greatly reduced.
However, fire prevention is a major problem in the mountains now.
Shi Wen people would rather go through a little trouble than leave any potential problems behind.
If a spark were to be left here, the consequences would be dire.
The first group to remove the wasp nests were Shi Wen and Yan Kexing. Their protective suits were very heavy, with thick fabric and various kinds of barbed wire.
Shi Wen that it weighed at least ten kilograms, and it was so heavy that it made it difficult for me to move around.
Most importantly, it's incredibly stuffy; the moment he puts on the full protective suit, he's drenched in sweat.
If you wear it any longer, your clothes underneath will probably get soaked.
The protective suits were uncomfortable, but the two didn't delay. After putting them on, they immediately climbed the tree and began removing the wasp nest.
They broke off the hornet's nest and stuffed it into the bag they had brought.
The wasp nest was quite large, but it was relatively easy to break apart. Once broken open, you could see plump wasp pupae and wasps that had not yet emerged from the nest.
Shi Wen at the scene before him, Shi Wen felt his mouth watering.
He hadn't eaten bee pupae in a long time; in his mind, they were a top-tier delicacy.
Wasps are a nuisance to them; they don't need to leave any part of the wasp nest for the wasps to develop further, they just need to wipe out the whole nest.
Shi Wen and Yan Kexing quickly crushed the bee pupae and stuffed them into a bag.
Wasps crawled all over them, trying to sting them, but the protective suits were just too effective. Shi Wen and see the glandular fluid in front of their goggles, and suddenly felt a little scared.
Luckily, they came wearing heavy protective suits, otherwise they would have been bitten to death today.
The two worked quickly, and in just over ten minutes, they had broken the huge hornet's nest into pieces and stuffed it all into a bag.
They tied the bag opening with a rope, then took special bee repellent spray and sprayed each other with it.
After I climbed down the tree, the wasps didn't chase after me, possibly because of the bee spray.
They used twigs to swat the wasps off each other, and after a while, they finally managed to get most of the wasps away.
Then they went down to meet up with Zhu Ji and the others.
Upon meeting, Shi Wen immediately opened his helmet, let out a long sigh, and said, "It's so suffocating! It's unbearably hot inside this protective suit."
Zhu Ji took the bag from his hand, gently opened it, glanced inside, and casually said, "Then it's our turn to break off the next hornet nest. Wow, there are so many hornet pupae in this nest! We can have a good drink today."
Shi Wen, "Drink! We still have some good wine that Yan Kexing brought back."
As he spoke, Shi Wen turned to Yan Kexing and asked, "How many years old is our fine wine again?"
Yan Kexing: "More than thirty years."
Zhu Ji shook his head smugly. "Only thirty years old? I have wine that's over eighty years old. I'll bring some over for you to try next time."
