Heavy Armoured Truck In Post-apocalyptic World

Chapter 179: Domesticating Honeybees

Shen Cong, who came to Mibao's hive for the second time, received a warm welcome. The entire hive, except for the flightless larvae, rushed towards Shen Cong.

These fist-sized bees surrounded Shen Cong layer by layer, biting him frantically.

But they were too weak, not to mention Shen Cong, just a casual evolutionary, with a little tighter clothing, Honeybee couldn't help it.

Shen Cong, who was wearing a honeybee coat, fanned the honeybee off the armor mask, left nothing on his body, and ran straight to the hive. The hive the size of a house has already repaired the hive section that Shen Cong cut away last time. Shen Cong tore another piece and found that Mibao bee was very hardworking and had already filled up Mibao.

Without saying anything, the forward bag made of golden dragon skin was taken out and spread out on the ground.

The faint smell of golden dragon made the honeybees scatter and fly away, and the world was quiet.

"If I had known it would have been taken out earlier, the golden flood dragon would have more prestige if it died." Shen Cong still cut off half of the honeycomb plate containing the honey treasure, and put it in the forward bag.

But this time he not only wanted honey treasures, but also took away some honey treasure bees and larvae, and went back to do research.

"The bee pupae should be on the top... Sure enough, there are white bee pupae larvae inside. There are a lot of them. I'll just cut a piece of the hive and take it away."

After cutting off the hives of the bee pupae, Shen Cong still wanted to find another thing - royal jelly, which should be called precious royal jelly at this time.

Royal jelly is the secretion of the pharyngeal glands of worker bees that cultivate larvae in honeybees. It is the food specially for queen bee candidate larvae, and it is also the food for the queen bee (queen bee) for life. Generally, the larvae will eat royal jelly for three days, then eat honey and pollen, and grow into worker bees; those who eat royal jelly all the time, grow into queen bees.

"The royal jelly is in the Wangtai. The Wangtai is where the queen bee lives. Cut off a little bit of the royal jelly to see if there are any larvae in it... Cut more precious royal jelly...I want to eat it too."

The queen bee was not big, and Shen Cong cut more than half of it directly, scaring the slightly larger queen bee into the hive and not daring to show her face.

There are indeed a few larvae in Wangtai's beehive. These larvae are obviously for the purpose of cultivating new queen bees, but what makes Shen Cong strange is that he has checked the information about bees, and it is usually when the queen bee is old that new bees are bred. The queen bees are divided naturally, and the old queen leads a group of bees to leave and build a new nest.

The honeybee here has only mutated for more than five months, so it is unlikely that the queen bee will grow old so quickly.

"Perhaps this queen bee is the old queen bee?"

unimportant question,

Shen Cong didn't delve into it, and directly packed the cut hive boards carefully, sealed them up, and then sprayed the snakeskin bag and himself with a scent-masking spray produced by the camp to cover up the smell of honey treasure. He didn't want to attract another group of angry sparrows.

Put your backpack on and leave quickly.

The convoy in front slowed down, and Donkey Kong quickly caught up with the convoy.

About to arrive at Miaogang Township, Shen Cong got off the car again. This time he went to collect traffic persimmons. Unfortunately, this time the traffic persimmons did bear fruit, but the ripe fruits were eaten up by a kind of flying bird, leaving only Young green fruit.

Shaking his head, Shen Cong didn't pick it.

In this way, the convoy returned to Hefei smoothly and returned to the Mingfa camp.

Depart in the morning and return in the afternoon.

The trip went very smoothly.

The survivors of the Grape Forest Camp were warmly welcomed by the survivors of the Mingfa Camp. The leadership headed by Commander Zhao Weiliang immediately absorbed the management of the Grape Forest Camp, busy arranging housing and work for the new survivors, and recording Archives are included in unified militarized management.

...

After dinner, Wang Yingying came to find her.

Shen Cong's identity has basically been determined. He is Huang Xiaoming in the Grape Forest camp, and Hu Ge in the Mingfa camp. This must be a pseudonym, but the name is not important anymore. He is still Colonel Hu Ge.

"Boss Huang, my parents' names are not on the roster." Wang Yingying said.

Shen Cong returned a pendant to her: "Well, also, the group of people with blue faces and fangs are not here."

Wang Yingying restrained her emotions: "Thank you."

"You What's your plan next?" Shen Cong asked coldly.

"I don't know. Commander Zhao said that after the establishment of the new city, the personnel will be completely reformed. Now, for the time being, we will cooperate with the comfort of the survivors in the grape forest camp."

"Ok."

Shen Cong responded casually, and stopped talking. He was just busy wiping away the mud splashed by the Da vajra's armor. He loved Da kong even more than himself.

The attitude speaks for itself, and talk time is over.

"Then I'll go first, Boss Huang, no, Colonel Hu."

As soon as Wang Yingying left, Li Aiping brought Director Zhao Kan and several experts from the scientific research institute on the back: "Colonel, Director Zhao and the others are here."

Shen Cong asked Li Aiping to invite Zhao Kan and the others here to study Mibao.

After sending Li Aiping away, Shen Cong invited a group of ordinary people and researchers from the scientific research institute into the King Kong carriage, which was limited to the slaughter area in the back cabin.

If Mibao hadn't had to ensure that the smell wouldn't come out, he wouldn't let people get into the car.

"Director Zhao, this is Honeybee. I have ten samples of mature worker bees. This piece is the hive for storing honeybee and bee pupae. This small piece is the royal platform with larvae inside. I would like you to study it. The composition of Mibao, and at the same time, see if you can tame Mibao bees as a breeding project in the camp."

"It's such a magical little thing...Colonel Hu always brings luck to the camp. After we go back, we will set up a special honey bee laboratory, which will be led by the biological expert Xu Changde to study the breeding of honey bees. "Zhao Kan is still very keen on scientific research.

Xu Changde is the deputy director of the research institute, specializing in biology. He used to be an associate professor at the University of Science and Technology of China. It can be domesticated successfully."

"That's good, these hives are handed over to you. Although the honey treasure has a limit to the physical strengthening of the evolutionary, it is a very good active fruit catalyst. I believe it will be of great help to the evolution of human beings."

"Colonel Hu, don't worry, we will definitely take the Mibaobee project as a key project of the scientific research institute!"

...

When Zhao Kan and his party left, Shen Cong himself was also in the greenhouse and established a cultivation place.

He not only left half of the Wangtai hives, but also most of the honey treasures and a small half of the royal jelly. Although Shen Cong coveted the precious royal jelly, he didn't keep it for himself. Instead, he planned to use the precious royal jelly to feed a larva in Wangtai's hive. He was going to use this larva to see if it could be bred into a queen bee.

If possible, by the way, establish a sensory connection, control the queen bee to build a nest, and directly raise bees by yourself, so that you can drink precious honey and royal jelly every day.

"Mibao bees can collect nectar by themselves, which is more cost-effective than raising ants." Shen Cong glanced around to find metal scraps and active cores to feed Ant Lishen's blackheads.

Now Yilishen has become a foodie, consuming a lot of metal and active core every day, and his abdomen is swollen day by day. Shen Cong doubts that it will grow into an ugly belly like the short fierce queen ant.

Fortunately, the ant nest has a lot of space and can accommodate it.

Otherwise, Shen Cong could only throw Yi Lishen out and let him dig the soil to make a nest by himself.

Concentrating his thoughts, Shen Cong looked at the honey bee larvae in the Wangtai, and his brain started: "I established a sensory connection with Blackhead and Yilishen before, when the ant eggs were dying, I established a connection with the mechanical vine, and it was also when I developed When is it time... do you wait for the larvae to starve to death before using active contact?"
