Needless to say, he was a little nervous.
You know, this is a hornet's nest.
Although wasps are not very active at night, that is under the premise that there is no alarm.
If you are alarmed, some wasps will come out.
"Boss, does this wasp sting really hurt? It's such a small one, I can crush it to death with my hands. As for being so worried..." Dahan complained.
"The pain is secondary, the toxicity is the real thing." Xu Qingfeng shrugged and explained to Dahan.
This guy is such a tiger.
If Xu Qingfeng hadn't stopped him, he would have really dared to stir up a hornet's nest.
The two brothers didn't know how to write the word "fear".
Xu Qiusheng on the side told the truth, he didn't quite understand why the two brothers Dahan listened to his younger brother so much.
However, after getting in touch with them in the past few days, his impression of the two brothers has also changed greatly.
It doesn't exclude them.
On the contrary, I think it's quite cute.
Their low intelligence means they are good-natured as long as someone guides them in the right direction.
At this time, several people under the tree were eagerly watching the movement on the tree.
"Why do I feel like I'm standing a little forward? Brother, let's stand further back." Xu Qiusheng was still a little scared.
This is a wasp.
Watching Erxi approaching the hornet's nest little by little, their hearts were in a state of excitement.
Xu Qingfeng didn't think it was necessary.
Speaking of danger, Uncle Erxi on the tree is the most dangerous.
They are far enough here.
And it's dark now, so the wasps can't see well, so it's not a big problem.
Besides, it's somewhat unethical for them to retreat now.
Uncle Erxi will definitely find them not interesting enough.
Xu Qingfeng watched Erxi approach the hornet's nest, then wrap his legs around the tree, and then take out a ball of tissue paper.
What is straw paper? It is paper made from straw, reeds, straw, weeds and other plant straws as raw materials.
This kind of paper has a very rough texture and has appeared very early. It is mostly used to make some packaging paper or memorial supplies.
In the era when toilet paper had not yet appeared, it was also used as toilet paper for a period of time.
The toilet paper of later generations has been very delicate and silky, and the price is also very cheap.
So people abandoned straw paper and used it as toilet paper.
In later generations, it was common to burn paper during the Qingming Festival or Chinese New Year. It was used to burn paper when worshiping ancestors. In some places, it is also called paper burning.
In the 1970s, there was no toilet paper, so everyone used this thing to go to the toilet.
Of course, many people can't even afford this toilet paper, but use leaves, bamboo chips, tiles and stones instead.
It may be difficult for people in later generations to imagine.
Erxi carried toilet paper with him just to block the entrance to the hornet's nest.
Keep the wasps trapped inside.
The shapes of hornet's nests are also different, including lotus-shaped and spherical.
The lotus-shaped hornet's nest is semi-open. Like an open-air stadium, this hornet's nest is more troublesome.
Dealing with the spherical hornet's nest is much simpler.
Because the structure of the spherical hornet's nest is similar, they all have only one entrance and exit.
Just plug this hole and that's it.
Erxi blocked the entrance to the hornet's nest with the straw paper in her hand.
He even pushed hard inside.
Make sure the paper doesn't fall off.
The wasp couldn't fly out, so he lit the incense stick in his hand and inserted it into the wasp's nest.
Wait for the medicine to kill the wasps inside.
Then it's ok.
It doesn't look too relaxed, as if you only need hands.
But that’s not the case. First of all, you have to overcome your psychological fear and climb so high. More importantly, you have to make sure that everything is correct.
If something goes wrong at any point, hey, just wait for a wasp to sting you.
Therefore, it is better not to try this lightly.
"Uncle Erxi, are you done?" Xu Qingfeng asked Erxi under the tree.
Erxi turned around and gave Xu Qingfeng an OK gesture.
However, you can't pluck the hornet's nest right away because it will take several minutes for the drug to take effect.
Erxi did not get off the tree, but found a branch, sat for a while, and smoked a cigarette.
This awareness of fire prevention...Xu Qingfeng was numb under the tree.
When he lit incense just now, Xu Qingfeng was a little worried, but because lighting incense was a necessary method to deal with wasps, he didn't say anything.
Smoking is indeed a bit excessive.
"Uncle Erxi, put your cigarette out. There is no rush to smoke at this moment. This is in the old forest. If you light up the forest, the village chief won't drag you to a public trial." Xu Qingfeng shouted.
When Er Xi heard the word "public trial", she was almost frightened to drop the cigarette in her hand, so she quickly stubbed out the cigarette.
There was half a cigarette left, but he didn't want to throw it away and put it back in his pocket.
These days, cigarette butts are treasures.
After about five minutes, the time was almost up, and Erxi started to cut down the hornet's nest.
He was good at his craftsmanship, and the cut was quite complete, and he put it into a sack.
After a while, the sack containing the hornet's nest was in Xu Qingfeng's hands.
Er Xi also received tonight's reward, five yuan, which made him smile from ear to ear.
"Qingfeng, if there is such a good thing in the future, just call me and I will be there when you call." Erxi said.
Xu Qingfeng put the sacks on the deer cart and then drove the deer cart back home.
Dahan Erhan drove the deer cart back to his grandfather's house.
It was seven or eight o'clock, not too late, but the village was closed and there were basically no lights on.
It's so early to go to bed these days.
But at Xu Qingfeng's house, He Chunhua left a light for Xu Qingfeng and the others.
"Son, how are you? Are you in any danger?" He Chunhua heard the movement in the yard and immediately opened the door to the room.
Obviously, if the Xu Qingfeng brothers didn't come back, she would definitely not be able to sleep.
That's what the older generation is like.
"Mom, it's okay. In fact, you really don't have to worry. It's not like I climbed a tree to pick a hornet's nest, right? There are professionals here, and your son still knows how to measure things." Xu Qingfeng smiled slightly.
"That's true. Let's just say that this hornet's nest is of no use. You stayed up late at night and went to get this." He Chunhua complained.
Xu Qingfeng opened the sack, worried that the wasps were not dead, so he boiled a pot of water and soaked the wasps' nest.
Now you can be sure that no wasps have slipped through the net.
"Mom, who said the hornet's nest is useless? These are worth a lot of money." Xu Qingfeng said.
"Um, Qingfeng, I have a question." Xu Qiusheng cleared his throat and asked Xu Qingfeng, this wasp was killed by incense. Is it poisonous?
Does it really work?
Don't look back and poison everyone.
Xu Qingfeng told his brother that he could rest assured that this medicine was only useful for wasps and was harmless to the human body.
He had already asked Uncle Er Xi in the afternoon.
Xu Qingfeng is also a foodie himself, so of course he wants to enjoy the bee pupae from the hornet's nest.
Xu Qiusheng nodded, then there would be no problem.
