Chapter 247: Training the Queen Bee to Prepare for Revenge (Subscription Request)

Xu Ye walked slowly into the depths of the forest along the familiar mountain road.

The sunlight shines through the dense leaves onto the ground, creating mottled light and shadows.

The forest is quiet and mysterious, with the occasional bird calls making it seem particularly peaceful and quiet.

Ying Yong and Ying Gu circled in the air, watching the movements around them vigilantly.

As Xu Ye walked, he carefully observed the surrounding environment, looking for traces of the hornet.

Wasps usually prefer to nest high up in trees, especially in areas with full sunlight.

Xu Ye remembered that when he was hunting in the mountains before, he had seen hornet's nests on several big trees.

He decided to visit those places first.

After walking for about half an hour, Xu Ye finally found a hornet's nest on a tall pine tree a few dozen meters away.

The nest hangs on a branch and is shaped like a huge gourd with densely packed honeycomb holes on the surface.

Several wasps were flying around the nest, making a low buzzing sound.

Xu Ye stopped, looked up at the nest in the distance, and activated his extreme vision.

"Huang Haoming, you are so lucky!" A smile suddenly appeared on Xu Ye's face.

Because he found that it was a nest of golden-ringed hornets, the most poisonous of all hornets.

Moreover, this golden-ringed hornet is very aggressive, especially when its nest is threatened, it will attack the invader in groups.

He took out the raincoat he had prepared and put it on. Then, Xu Ye took out the insect repellent spray and sprayed it on himself.

His target is the Queen Bee. After all, the lifespans of other bees are very short. If he uses hunting attribute enhancement, the effect may not be very obvious.

After quickly approaching, the golden-ringed hornets pounced towards Xu Ye.

There are at least several hundred of them, and looking at the black mass is really scary.

But when they were less than ten meters away from Xu Ye, they turned their heads as if they were stimulated by something.

Obviously, this is the effect of the special insect repellent spray.

All the hornets returned to their own hives and did not attack Xu Ye again.

Xu Ye approached quickly and then climbed up the tree.

With the climbing skill at the maximum level, the speed of climbing trees is still very fast.

He jumped to the edge of the beehive as quickly as a monkey.

Those golden-ringed hornets didn't dare to get close to Xu Ye and fled in all directions.

The entire hive was empty, with only the queen bee left in the hive.

Xu Ye directly took the cloth bag and put the beehive in, because the queen bee was still inside.

After putting the bees in, Xu Ye tied the bag to prevent the queen bee from escaping.

After coming down from the tree, the queen bee had already emerged from the hive.

Then, Xu Ye pinched the queen bee, opened the bag and took it out.

Then, Xu Ye took out a glass canning jar and put the queen bee in it.

There are dense holes on the lid, so you don't have to worry about it being suffocated inside.

After putting the jar into the backpack, Xu Ye went hunting.

After all, we have come to the mountains, and it would be inappropriate not to hunt some prey and bring it back.

With a goshawk scouting in the sky, Xu Ye doesn't have to worry about not being able to find prey.

Xu Ye continued to walk through the forest, carrying the jar containing the golden ring wasp queen. Ying Yong and Ying Gu circled in the air, scanning the ground with sharp eyes, looking for traces of prey.

Not long after, Ying Yong suddenly let out a sharp cry, then swooped down and flew in one direction. Xu Ye immediately understood that Ying Yong had found his prey. He quickly followed, his steps light and fast, trying not to make any noise.

After passing through a bush, Xu Ye saw a hare foraging in the grass. The hare seemed to sense danger, with its ears erected and looking around vigilantly. However, it did not notice Xu Ye hiding behind the tree.

Xu Ye held his breath, slowly took out the slingshot from his waist, picked up a stone, and aimed at the hare. He took a deep breath, loosened his fingers, and the stone flew out with a "whoosh" sound, hitting the hare's head accurately. The hare fell to the ground, struggled a few times, and then stopped moving.

Xu Ye walked forward, picked up the hare, and nodded with satisfaction. The hare was quite large, enough for a family meal. He tied the hare up, hung it around his waist, and continued walking forward.

In the following time, Xu Ye hunted two more pheasants and a badger. It was a good harvest, and his backpack was already full. He looked at the sky. The sun was setting, and the light in the forest was gradually dimming.

"It's almost time to go back." Xu Ye said to himself.

He blew a whistle, and Ying Yong and Ying Gu immediately flew back and landed on his shoulders. Xu Ye touched their feathers and said with a smile: "You have worked hard today. I will give you a snack when I get back."

After saying that, Xu Ye took the prey and walked towards the village.

When he returned to the village, it was already dark. When the villagers saw Xu Ye returning with a full load, they gathered around him with happy smiles on their faces.

"Captain Xu, we have made quite a harvest today!" a villager said with a smile.

Jiang Ruoan and Jiang Ruyue were standing at the entrance of the village waiting for him. They both breathed a sigh of relief when they saw him return safely.

"Xu Ye, are you okay?" Jiang Ruoan walked forward and asked with concern.

Xu Ye smiled and shook his head: "It's okay, it's just hunting in the mountains, you don't have to worry."

The three of them returned home together, and Gu Yun had already prepared dinner.

Xu Ye simply washed up and then sat down to eat with everyone.

At the dinner table, Xu Ye did not mention his plans in the mountains, but just briefly talked about the situation in the village.

He knew that the fewer people who knew about this matter, the better, especially Huang Haoming must not notice anything unusual.

After dinner, Xu Ye went to his processing plant.

After arriving at the processing plant, Xu Ye took out the queen bee.

Looking at the queen bee inside, Xu Ye showed a hint of anticipation.

"System, use 10 hunting attribute points to improve the Queen Bee's physique."

Xu Ye looked at the extent to which this queen bee could be upgraded. Anyway, it would only consume some hunting attributes, so Xu Ye didn't feel sorry at all.

[Hunting attribute -8]

[Queen Bee Physical Fitness +4]

Seeing the prompt, Xu Ye was not surprised, as it was within his expectations.

"System, use 10 hunting attribute points to improve the queen bee's reaction."

[Hunting attribute -8]

[Queen Bee Reaction +4]

After the upgrade, Xu Ye put some insects into the jar.

After all, after being promoted, the queen bee also needs to eat a lot.

"Huang Haoming, just wait. I won't give you any chance this time." Xu Ye said silently in his heart.

Then, Xu Ye waited for the queen bee to be promoted.

After more than ten minutes, the queen bee began to eat.

It has a huge appetite and quickly eats up all the insects inside.

Xu Ye threw some more in and watched it eat all the insects.

After eating, the queen bee crawled to the mouth of the bottle.

Xu Ye didn't open it because it would take some time to feed.

Let it get familiar with your smell, and then you can start to gradually tame it.

Although Xu Ye’s animal taming skills have reached the maximum level, this is his first time training insects.

He felt that the probability of success was still quite high. After all, he had raised the queen bee's physique and reaction to the limit. Xu Ye did not stay here any longer. Instead, he put the jar away and left the processing plant.

Jiang Ruoan and the others were still worried about his physical condition, so he was not suitable to continue working.

After returning, Xu Ye first wrote a letter to Huang Sisi and asked Ying Gu to deliver it.

When Xu Ye saw Huang Sisi's reply, he realized that Qin Hai had left.

After writing another letter to Huang Sisi, Xu Ye took Jiang Ruyue to rest.

The next morning, Xu Ye got up early.

He decided to go to the farm again to make sure everything was normal. As soon as he reached the entrance of the village, he saw Fan Dajun running over in a hurry.

"Xu Ye, something happened!" Fan Dajun said breathlessly.

Xu Ye's heart tightened, and he quickly asked, "What's wrong?"

Fan Dajun's face was solemn: "Last night, the fodder warehouse in the village was damaged. Fortunately, the patrol team discovered it in time and did not cause too much damage. But we suspect that it might have been done by Huang Haoming's people."

Xu Ye frowned, secretly alert in his heart. He knew that Huang Haoming had already started to act, and his methods were more covert than before.

"Let's go and take a look." Xu Ye said in a deep voice.

The two men hurried to the hay warehouse and found that the door lock of the warehouse had been pried open and the hay inside was in a mess.

Although the loss was not large, it was clearly a warning.

Xu Ye squatted down and carefully examined the traces on the ground and found some unfamiliar footprints.

He had an idea and realized that these footprints were most likely left by people sent by Huang Haoming.

"It seems that Huang Haoming has already started taking action." Xu Ye stood up with a serious tone.

Fan Dajun nodded: "Yeah, this guy really won't give up. Xu Ye, what should we do next?"

Xu Ye pondered for a moment, then said: "Strengthen patrols, especially at night, and be sure to guard against it. In addition, we need to send more people to the fodder warehouse, and we can't let them succeed again."

Fan Dajun nodded: "Okay, I'll arrange it right away."

Xu Ye looked at the destroyed warehouse and made up his mind secretly.

He knew that he had to speed up his actions, otherwise Huang Haoming would only become more and more rampant.

In the next few days, Xu Ye fed the queen bee regularly every day and interacted with it through the small hole in the jar. The queen bee seemed to gradually get used to Xu Ye's presence. Every time he approached, the queen bee would actively crawl to the mouth of the jar, as if waiting for his arrival.

"It seems that it has begun to trust me." Xu Ye was secretly happy.

He knew that the process of taming the queen bee required patience and time, and that one could not rush for results.

So, he would spend some time every day "communicating" with the queen bee, gradually deepening their connection.

At the same time, Xu Ye did not relax his vigilance in the village.

He increased the patrols of the patrol team, especially at night, and there were people on duty in every corner of the village.

No strangers appeared in the village, and no one was seen approaching.

However, Xu Ye did not take it lightly. He had to remain on guard until he could deal with Huang Haoming.

A week later, Xu Ye felt that the time was ripe.

The queen bee has completely adapted to his presence and has shown preliminary responses to his commands.

Xu Ye decided to take the final step of domestication.

He carefully took the queen bee out of the jar and placed it in the palm of his hand.

The queen bee did not show any aggression, but lay quietly in the palm of his hand, as if waiting for his instructions.

“That’s great, it’s a great start.”

Xu Ye looked at the queen bee and couldn't help but feel excited.

Once it is tamed, you can proceed to the next step.

During this period, Xu Ye was making airships in the mechanical workshop.

This is not his system task, but the means of transportation to be used in Xu Ye's revenge plan.

If you want to return to the capital quickly, airship is undoubtedly a better choice.

After all, it is not easy to go back quietly. It is definitely impossible to go back by ground because it takes too long.

The airship was more suitable, and he had already designed it in the mechanical workshop with the help of the auxiliary design function.

And, start crafting it in the Mechanical Workshop.

Only after it is hand-kneaded in the mechanical workshop can he replicate it in reality and then hand-knead it out.

He guessed that Huang Haoming would never have thought that he would build an airship to go to Beijing to deal with him.

I guess no one would have such an idea.

If you want to blame someone, blame Huang Haoming for attacking Xu Ye and not wanting Xu Ye to live a peaceful life.

"Xu Ye, are you busy in there?"

When Xu Ye heard the voice, he quickly retreated from his mechanical workshop and returned to the real world.

When Xu Ye walked to the door of the processing plant, he saw Yang Zongming standing outside.

"Uncle Yang, why are you here? What happened?"

Yang Zongming quickly handed over a cigarette and said, "Today is the day for the brigade to harvest, you should go too. If the news gets to the commune, people will say you are being special."

Xu Ye then remembered that today was the harvest day.

"Okay, let's go together. I haven't done farm work for a long time." As he said that, Xu Ye lit a cigarette and followed Yang Zongming.

After he went out, a queen bee the size of an egg flew out.

After the upgrade, the queen bee has increased in size and looks more like a bird than a wasp.

Xu Ye also gave it a name, Queen of Gold.

She is the queen of the golden-ringed hornet, so she is called the Golden Queen.

The golden queen likes to find food on her own, which is completely different from the queen of ordinary wasps.

Right now, Xu Ye has not yet let the eggs it laid hatch.

Because Xu Ye needs to tame it completely, otherwise he is worried that the worker bees it hatches will not be under Xu Ye's control.

While Xu Ye was away, Queen Jin slipped out.

Xu Ye actually discovered it, but did not stop it.

Xu Ye followed Yang Zongming to the fields, where the villagers were already busy.

The golden rice fields sparkled with the light of harvest in the sun. The villagers waved their sickles and cut bundles of rice ears, their faces filled with joyful smiles.

"Captain Xu, you're here!" A villager saw Xu Ye and greeted him with a smile.

Xu Ye nodded, took a sickle, and joined the harvesting team.

Although he is usually busy with other affairs in the village, he is still adept at farm work.

The sickle swung quickly in his hand, and soon he cut off a large field of rice ears.

"Captain Xu, your skills are not rusty at all!" said the villager next to him with a smile.

Xu Ye smiled and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "I haven't done it for a long time, so my hands are a little raw, but it's good to stretch my muscles."

Just at this moment, someone suddenly ran over.

"Xu Ye, the Youth League Office, the Youth League Office has sent someone to look for you, go to the brigade headquarters quickly."
