Chapter 617: Discovering a hornet’s nest!



Li Shimin was an emperor and looked at things differently.

The princesses didn't think so and they all thought this thing was pretty good.

After all, it is a wild fruit, the quantity is very limited, and you can't eat it more than twice a year.

After eating, the little princess took out a tissue from Li Lizhi's bag, pointed at her mouth, and wiped her hands.

The little princess's bag contains snacks and money. Princess Yuzhang and Li Lizhi rarely put food in their bags, so tissues are indeed a must.

"Brother, do you have any more of this?" Princess Yuzhang gave hers to the little princess.

"There are two more, raw."

"This is delicious." Princess Gaoyang seemed a little unsatisfied.

"Let's go for a walk, there should be other things." Xiao Ran remembered that there were actually quite a few edible wild fruits in this season.

Li Lizhi and the others definitely had never eaten it.

It’s good to try.

"Hehe~ um um um~" The little princess pulled Xiao Ran.

"I'll go and take a look too." Princess Yuzhang felt that it would be more interesting to follow Xiao Ran.

Xiao Ran went to get a bag, took Li Lizhi and a few others and set off again.

Li Shimin left behind Empress Zhangsun and two old people. Now that they were familiar with each other, they would not feel awkward without the princesses around.

Over the years, the road has been covered by dense branches and weeds, but Xiao Ran still remembers where there were wild fruits.

"Little sac~ whether it's tied or not, there's still sweet melon duck~"

"Mingda, that one is gone, but there are others."

Princess Chengyang pointed and said, "Brother, can we eat that too?"

Xiao Ran and the others looked over and saw several large pine cones on the pine tree.

"This is not ready yet. We have to wait a while before we can eat it." Xiao Ran continued walking with a few princesses.

Pause beneath a very different tree.

The princesses looked up and saw that the trees were densely packed with wild fruits.

"Wow~ It's early May~"

"Is that red thing a strawberry?" Li Lizhi took a closer look. "It doesn't look like it!"

"Sister, can strawberries grow on trees?" Princess Yuzhang smiled.

"This is chicken gizzard, not strawberry." Xiao Ran reached out and picked one. It rained last night, so this thing doesn't need to be washed. It's purely natural.

Xiao Ran took a bite and said, "It's cooked and delicious. Mingda, try it."

Xiao Ran picked a few for the little princess.

"Hehe~" The little princess looked at the chicken's crop. It was red with dots on it. The size, color and shape were a bit like a strawberry.

"This one is a bit special, not bad." Princess Yuzhang reached out and picked it.

Xiao Ran and Princess Yuzhang Li Lizhi could pick them by standing up, but the two little princesses and Princess Gaoyang couldn't.

A few people ate while picking some to take back.

The little princess stood next to Xiao Ran and ate, and after she finished eating, Xiao Ran handed the food to the little princess.

"Brother, the bees here seem to be a little big." Princess Yuzhang listened carefully and heard a buzzing sound.

"Bees are not big. They are all quite small."

Princess Yuzhang pointed to the tree next to her and said, "Hey~ This one is much bigger than the one Zhe Shiqi had before, and it's quite different."

"This isn't a bee, it's a wild wasp. Be careful, the sting will hurt more and cause more swelling."

After hearing Xiao Ran's words, Princess Gao Yang hid behind Xiao Ran and Li Lizhi, feeling a little apprehensive.

"It seems like there are quite a few of them. Why are they all flying here?" Li Lizhi was also afraid, afraid of being stung on the face. Regardless of whether it would hurt or not, it would definitely not look good.

"Hmm?" Li Lizhi's words reminded Xiao Ran, and they all flew here...

That means one thing, the wasp's nest is here.

Xiao Ran was delighted, "Mingda, don't come over here. Wasps usually won't sting you if you don't provoke them."

After Xiao Ran finished speaking, he walked towards the tree with the wasps. The closer he got, the louder and more frequent the buzzing sound became.

Xiao Ran squatted down and gently pulled away the weeds. He saw a small hole under the tree with wasps constantly flying in and out.

Xiao Ran smiled, turned around and left. He didn't expect such a pleasant surprise.

"Brother, what are you laughing at?" Princess Gaoyang hid behind.

"There's a hornet's nest here. We can have some delicious food later. Let's go back first!"

"Seven Hornet Ducks~" The little princess thought of it immediately.

"Big wasps are not tasty, but small wasps are delicious. They have many times more protein than beef..."

Xiao Ran didn't know, but that's what a certain wilderness survival expert said.

Xiao Ran picked up the little princess and took a few people back home.

Seeing the chicken crop, Empress Changsun was stunned for a moment, "What is this?"

"Aniang, this is a system for remembering numbers~"

Empress Changsun didn't hear it clearly, and as an old mother, she couldn't guess what the term meant, so she looked at Li Lizhi.

"Chicken gizzard looks a bit like strawberry, but tastes different. It grows on trees and is quite good..." Li Lizhi explained to Empress Changsun.

Princess Chengyang picked up two chicken gizzards and said, "Grandpa, eat this."

"Fanyin eats it, grandpa doesn't want it." Grandpa gently pushed it to Princess Chengyang.

Li Shimin saw a lot of them, but he didn't mind. He picked one up and took a bite.

“Grandpa, is there a fuse at home?”

This is what was left over from rock blasting many years ago. The gunpowder is long gone, and only a small portion of the fuse remains.

"There should be some in the leftmost drawer. I don't know if it's damp over time, so it might not be usable. Go check it out."

"Okay!" Xiao Ran returned to the house, opened the drawer and rummaged through it, and saw a foot-long fuse tangled together.

Xiao Ran picked it up and looked at it, then cut off a length of seven or eight inches with scissors.

"Did you see a hornet's nest?"

When Grandpa saw Xiao Ran looking for the fuse, he thought of this question.

Apart from this, Xiao Ran can't do anything else with the fuse.

"Well, there's one over there next to the chicken crop tree. I'll add it to the dish later."

Xiao Ran picked up the sickle next to him and prepared to end the battle quickly.

Light the fuse and insert it, releasing a large amount of smoke that can stun the hornet. It doesn't last long, just a few minutes.

This time was enough for Xiao Ran to dig out the hornet's nest.

To be on the safe side, Xiao Ran went to the car and pretended to look for it, but actually he went to Datang to get protective clothing.

Seeing that Xiao Ran was going, several princesses wanted to join in the fun, but Li Lizhi was a little worried.

Xiao Ran doesn't even know how to get honey, so I'm afraid he can't deal with the wasps.

"Little Mr. Nang, I'm going home too~" The little princess pulled the corner of Xiao Ran's clothes.

"Mingda, this is very dangerous. I will be back soon and bring you some delicious food."

The little princess still didn't let go.

"Brother, it should be okay if we stand further away!" Princess Yuzhang was just purely curious.

The fuse can stun the hornets inside the cave, but there is nothing you can do about those outside the cave.

There are quite a lot of hornets, some are going out and some are coming back at any time.

Seeing Xiao Ran digging a nest, he must have been very upset.

Xiao Ran has protective clothing, but others don’t.

Seeing that several people wanted to go, Xiao Ran could only agree and let them stay where they were.

Li Shimin had no intention of going.
