Sheng Zhiyi slowly approached with tools...
He walked to the place where the mugwort was placed, picked up a small handful of mugwort, lit it, and placed it on the flat top of the rock to slowly smoke it to prevent the little bees that had flown away from suddenly turning back.
Sheng Zhiyi slowly moved a stone from the crevice and made sure that there were almost no bees inside.
Then he signaled Shen Qinghuan to work together to clear the stones outside the hive.
The two of them were quick and efficient, and in just three or two minutes they had cleared away the weeds and debris outside the hive.
: "Wow~~~ What a big beehive!"
Seeing the situation inside the cave nest, Shen Qinghuan couldn't help but exclaimed.
There were three honeycombs with a diameter of about 50 centimeters hanging in the cracks of the rocks. The size and shape of the honeycombs were similar, with basically no difference.
The distance between each beehive is about six or seven centimeters.
The beehive is a beautiful light yellow color, and the area where the honey is stored is sealed with beeswax.
The beeswax secreted from the hive almost covers the entire hive.
Even before they are harvested, you can smell their rich, sweet fragrance.
Sheng Zhiyi looked at the three honeycomb spleens inside, which were bigger than washbasins, and his eyebrows unconsciously curved.
This wild honey looks sweet and has a floral scent. If you give it to your partner while mixing it with kudzu powder, she will definitely like it.
Besides...
There are three beehives in this cave, and each of them is filled with honey.
Once he has filtered the honey from these honeycombs, his wife can eat it for a long time.
Thinking of this, Sheng Zhiyi's expression became even gentler.
He paused for two seconds, looked at Shen Qinghuan and spoke slowly,
"The honeycomb in the cave is quite large, so we can't take out the entire honeycomb. I'll come and harvest the honey later. Can you hold the bucket and help me collect it?"
Sheng Zhiyi's gaze was fixed on Shen Qinghuan's face, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
Shen Qinghuan nodded without hesitation.
:" OK."
Seeing that he agreed, Sheng Zhiyi unscrewed the kettle and washed the dirt off his hands.
He picked up the knife from the barrel and carefully began to harvest the honeycomb.
Each small beehive is filled with honey. When a cut is made, the thick honey inside begins to flow down along the cut.
Shen Qinghuan, who was watching from the side, hurriedly moved the wooden barrel in his hand closer to the cave entrance.
Looking at the honey falling down, the two grown men felt a little distressed tacitly.
What a good honey, so fragrant and sweet, it’s such a pity to let it fall to the ground!
Sheng Zhiyi immediately quickened his movements and quickly put the cut honeycombs into the wooden barrel.
Sheng Zhiyi took out a beehive by cutting it twice.
All three beehives were harvested in less than a minute.
Chen Qinghuan looked at the small amount of honeycomb still left in the cave, raised his eyebrows, and asked uncertainly,
: "Are you going to leave some food for the little bees...?"
Sheng Zhiyi:........
Sheng Zhiyi glanced at him sideways, his tone calm and no emotion could be heard.
"Leave some of the hives behind so you can come back and harvest honey next year."
The faint smile on Shen Qinghuan's face froze for a moment, but soon returned to normal.
He nodded calmly and praised me,
: "You still think long-term."
Shen Qinghuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately... fortunately, he didn't laugh too obviously just now.
Otherwise it would be embarrassing now...
Sheng Zhiyi didn't answer him immediately. He glanced at the burnt mugwort on the top of the rock, then turned his gaze to Shen Qinghuan.
"Carry the bucket away from me while I stuff the stone back into the beehive."
This way the bees can continue to develop their sweet careers in the hive!
