A Beekeeper in a Magical World Chapter 16: Kind Hua Mi
A small ball of honey flew out of the bottle and flew into her mouth, surrounded by colorful light spots.
The moment the honey entered her mouth, her whole body felt like electricity, and she trembled from her two little feet to the stupid hair on her head.
So delicious!
Little Zi Mao was so happy that she spun 360° on the spot, stretched out her hands and cast a delicate magic, took out a large ball of honey, and ate it happily.
Hua Mi witnessed the whole process in the wooden house.
Just as he thought, it is impossible for a pseudo-flower essence that feeds on nectar to hate honey.
The next step is to use this as a bridge to further communicate with them, exchange information with honey, and get closer to each other. It is best to include them in the bee farm.
If the alien apiary wants to become bigger and stronger, it will definitely not be possible by itself.
A person's power is limited after all. Although he has the two superpowers of controlling bee colonies and template evolution, he is also limited by his personal energy.
He was thinking about his next plan, and after walking for a while, he was startled when he looked out again.
I saw little Zi Mao with his belly down, his whole body hanging feebly on the edge of the bottle, and his head and upper body hanging directly into the bottle. At first glance, he thought he was drowning in honey.
Fortunately, she had already eaten half of the honey (the little guy ate more than he thought), and her body was short enough to keep her head from sinking into the honey.
Otherwise an elf drowns in honey... what kind of dark fairy tale is this.
"It seems that the sleep-aiding effect of moonflower honey is also very effective on pseudo-flower essence."
Hua Mi pinched her petal coat with two fingers, lifted her up, and shook her slightly.
"Hey, wake up."
"Well..."
Little Zimao just grunted, but made no attempt to open his eyes.
It can be seen that I slept soundly, so sweet that it was bubbling.
Hua Mi thought of an idea, picked up a spoon, dug out some honey, and brought it to her.
What's the best way to wake up a foodie?
Of course it’s the temptation of gourmet food.
Sure enough, the effect was immediate.
Little Zi Mao's body twitched, and his eyes opened in a flash, as if light suddenly appeared in his purple pupils. He jerked his neck, and swallowed the honey in one gulp.
Had she not seen it with her own eyes, Hua Mi would never have believed that she could eat so much in one sitting.
You rubber mouth.
Her cheeks were bulging, and she swallowed it all in two or three seconds. Then, before Hua Mi could talk to her, her head drooped and she fell asleep in seconds.
"..."
Trying her with honey again, he didn't open his eyes at all. He only opened his mouth and stretched out his pink tongue like a sleepwalker to lick the honey frantically "prprpr".
A perfect balance between eating and sleeping!
Hua Mi's face darkened and he moved the honey spoon away.
My consciousness reached out and established contact with the bees in one of the beehives.
Buzz——
With the buzzing sound, a swarm of armored bees swarmed out of the nest and hovered over the beehive. Under the darkness of the night, it seemed like a conscious black smoke, with a somewhat eerie smell.
"If you sleep again, I will throw you into the swarm of bees!"
Little Zi Mao opened his eyes instantly, his eyes clear:
"I woke up~"
The past is still vivid in my mind.
The scene of being besieged by the swarm that day was still unforgettable in her mind.
My little sister was stung and turned into a pig's head. It took many days for the swelling to subside. She was in pain and cried every day.
She doesn't want to make the same mistake again.
Hua Mi smiled with satisfaction and let go of her petal clothes.
Little Zi Mao flew into the air swayingly, yawned widely, and crystal tears overflowed from the corners of his eyes.
"What's going on? I feel so sleepy suddenly."
"Moonflower honey has the effect of helping you sleep. If you eat so much in one breath, you will certainly feel sleepy."
Little Zi Mao nodded thoughtfully and curiously asked a few questions about bees making honey. She was no longer as wary of him as before.
The mentality of a foodie is that simple.
Give me good food, then you are a good person.
Hua Mi was not in a hurry to win her over, but said generously: "I still have a lot of honey here. You can ask your friends to come and enjoy it for free."
The little guy happily agreed.
“I didn’t expect these little bugs to be so powerful!”
After listening to Hua Mi's introduction, Xiao Zimao immediately became very interested in bees and flew lightly towards the armored bee swarm, wanting to say hello to them.
Before she could get closer, the swarm suddenly moved forward to attack.
The fake flower essence was so frightened that it screamed and quickly retreated, hiding behind Hua Mi's head and trembling.
Hua Mi couldn't help laughing.
What he just did was actually a surprise move to control the swarm. The purpose was to make this little guy remember a little longer and not approach them easily.
Being stung by a common bee is fine.
If she was stung by a painful bee, he was not sure whether her small body could withstand the extreme pain.
He cannot control the bee swarm all the time. Most of the time, it is in a free-range state, relying on the bees' own natural activities.
Little Zi Mao patted his chest with lingering fear, but his curiosity remained undiminished: "How do they make honey? What kind of magic is used? Can you teach me?"
"Well..."
To put it simply, ordinary bees make honey by secreting an invertase enzyme, which cannot be taught.
Unless she can secrete it too.
But imagine the scene of little Zi Mao spitting into the nectar to make honey... the scene is too beautiful to look at.
"Only bees in the world have this talent, and it cannot be taught."
After hearing this, Xiao Zimao was both envious and yearning.
It was getting late, and she was ready to go back.
Hua Mi filled the small wooden bucket she carried with her with honey and asked her to take it back for her friends to taste.
"You are really a kind person. It seems that the rumors about you are not accurate. Look at Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com and alchemists are not all bad guys."
Hua Mi just smiled and waved to her, without explaining that he was not the "despicable alchemist" they called him.
As for the original owner of the wooden house, it is not necessary for him to know the information at present. He can ask about it later when he becomes more familiar with it.
Maybe nothing can be asked.
The fact that they can mistake themselves for each other means they are not that familiar.
……
After sending away the fake flower essence, Hua Mi moved the beehives back to the wooden house one by one.
"The first batch of larvae of the Ironclad and Painful Bees are about to hatch."
When the larvae hatch, he plans to conduct hybrid experiments with new bee species.
Why wait for the larvae to hatch?
Because we need to breed a new queen bee.
The queen bee in a bee colony can mate for a very short time, just a few days, and then stores numerous male reproductive cells in her body for lifelong use.
After the mating period, mating is no longer possible.
These three new bee species are the same as ordinary bees in this respect, with no changes.
So if you want to conduct a hybrid experiment, you must first breed a new queen bee.
The method is also very simple, that is, select a worker bee, feed it royal jelly from the larval stage, and cultivate it as a queen bee, and it will slowly and naturally become a queen bee.
The Forest Swift Bee has high reproductive capacity and a short growth cycle, and a new queen bee is already being cultivated.
As for which bee species to cross with the Forest Swift Bee first, he preferred the Armored Bee.
The main purpose is to optimize the survivability of the Forest Swift Bee.
Back at the ancestral home, it was already early in the morning. Hua Mi habitually logged in to the online store page and took a look.
Unexpectedly, there is an order.
"Let me see which lucky guy it is."
