Chapter 551 Adventure in the Forest
As luck would have it, Gu Changlin was preparing to go out to collect some wild honey these days. Gu Chang was very curious about this, so he took the initiative to ask to go with him, hoping to use this opportunity to broaden his horizons and open the eyes of the audience through live broadcast.
To this end, Gu Changlin specially prepared three sets of special bee-proof suits, which can completely cover the human body from head to toe and effectively prevent being stung by bee swarms.
Two of the sets were prepared for himself and Gu Chang, and the other set was left for his lovely grandson Gu Xile.
Speaking of this little grandson, Gu Changlin felt both angry and amused.
Gu Xile, who just finished the high school entrance examination this year, had a total score in several courses that was lower than his weight. This made Gu Changlin very angry!
Since Gu Xile's parents worked away from home all year round, he was raised by his grandfather Gu Changlin. Since he was very young, he has been raising bees with his grandfather and can be said to be a half-expert.
Although he had no interest in studying, he had a strong passion for beekeeping and collecting honey. Faced with this situation, Gu Changlin had no choice but to take him with him. After all, learning one more skill would help him to support himself better in the future.
This is also the most important reason why Gu Changlin agreed to cooperate with Gu Chang. He hopes that his grandson can live with Gu Chang in the future. It is better than staying in this mountain raising bees all his life!
After all, Gu Chang is now a celebrity in Dayazi Town. Everyone knows that they can make money by following him! Therefore, Gu Changlin agreed to cooperate with Gu Chang so readily.
Nowadays, everyone knows that following Gu Chang from Dayizi Town is better than following the God of Wealth!
Think about those who followed him at the beginning, which one of them didn't make a lot of money! They all lived a good life, which made people envious.
This time, Gu Xile also went along and acted as Gu Chang's live broadcast partner!
After packing up, the three of them began to go deep into the mountains. Along the way, they walked carefully.
As soon as he entered the mountain, Gu Chang started the live broadcast!
In an instant, the live broadcast room was filled with comments welcoming the return of the missing host!
"The return of the missing!"
"Oh, Boss Gu remembered his other identity: anchor!"
"..."
"Where is this, host?"
“Why does it look like a primeval forest?”
Looking at the barrage of comments on the screen, Gu Chang said with a smile: "Haha, I'll take you to see the real nature!"
As he spoke, he turned the camera around so that the audience could see the surrounding environment.
I saw lush green trees all around, the sun shone through the leaves, forming spots of light. The air was filled with the smell of grass and soil, making people feel particularly fresh.
"Wow, so beautiful!"
"where is this!"
"..."
The old friends in the live broadcast room suddenly discovered that Gu Chang was actually in a dense forest! It was midsummer in July, and the vegetation in the Qinling Mountains was growing most luxuriantly.
"My friends, today I will show you the real wild honey harvesting in the Qinling Mountains!" Gu Chang introduced to the audience with a smile.
“Harvesting wild honey?”
"Wow, I've only seen this kind of scene in documentaries!"
"That's amazing! The host is really amazing!"
"666......"
"The host is really awesome. You can see all kinds of weird things in his live broadcast room!"
"But wouldn't it be dangerous to do this? The anchor must pay attention to safety!"
"..."
The audience in the live broadcast room saw the three people struggling to climb and walk on the steep cliffs of the mountain stream, and they couldn't help but worry: "Isn't this too dangerous? I'm really worried about them!"
"Yeah, what if I accidentally fall down?"
"..."
However, Gu Chang confidently comforted them, "Don't worry, everyone. Mr. Gu has decades of experience in collecting honey in the wild. He is an expert in this area! We are definitely professionals!"
As he spoke, he pointed the camera at Gu Changlin, who smiled naively and waved hello to the audience in front of the screen.
"Wow, this old man looks so awesome!"
"Yes, you can tell at first glance that he is an experienced and trustworthy person!"
"Haha, with Uncle Gu leading the way today, the anchor will definitely be able to harvest a lot of honey!"
At this time, a netizen joked: "Be careful of being counterattacked by the wild bee monster, otherwise you may get a big bump on your head!"
Another netizen echoed: "Yeah, these wild bees are not to be trifled with!"
Facing the concerns and ridicule of many netizens, Gu Chang responded with a smile: "Don't worry, we are fully prepared this time, with all kinds of equipment. There is nothing to be afraid of the little wild bee monster, we can definitely take it down easily!"
After saying this, he even patted the backpack on his back to show his confidence.
……
"Uncle Gu, where are we going to collect honey today?" The journey was quite long, so Gu Chang chatted casually.
"Let's go to Yingzui Stream. I have placed dozens of wooden barrels there." Gu Changlin looked in the direction and said.
"The wooden barrel you placed there?" Gu Chang asked in surprise.
"Yes! There are generally two ways to collect wild honey!" Gu Changlin explained: "One is to place a homemade wooden beehive on the edge of a cliff in the deep mountains that is relatively close to the honey source. Wild bees may come to the beehive to make their home. If the bees come to make their home, you can harvest the honey after a period of time."
"Generally speaking, more than half of the beehives placed in the mountains will be favored by wild honey."
After a pause, Gu Changlin continued, "Another way is to go directly to the wild to find beehives and harvest them directly!"
Before Gu Chang could say anything, the friends in the live broadcast room had already started to swipe the screen!
"666..."
“I’ve learned something new!”
"I can't wait to see the host fight the bee monster alone!"
"..."
"So are we harvesting wild beehives directly today?"
Gu Chang looked at Gu Changlin and asked curiously. He knew what this wild beehive meant to beekeepers, and he also understood how precious and unique they were.
Gu Changlin thought for a moment, recalling last year's scene, and then said, "There should be one on the way, but I don't know what the situation will be like this year. After all, these wild beehives are all grown naturally, and the output varies from year to year."
Generally speaking, in order to protect the ecological balance of the bee colony, these wild hives can only be harvested once a year at most. This ensures that the bees have enough time to recover and develop, while also avoiding excessive impact on the ecological environment.
"If it's convenient on the way, shall we go over and take a look?"
Gu Chang certainly understood the expectations of the old friends in the live broadcast room, so he took the initiative to make this suggestion. He hopes to satisfy the curiosity of the audience and show more real scenes about beekeeping.
"Okay."
Gu Changlin replied with a smile, expressing his agreement.
"It should be on the right side of the cliff ahead." Gu Changlin pointed in the direction ahead and said. They quickened their pace and headed towards their goal.
The group walked along the mountain path and soon arrived near the cliff. The terrain here is steep and surrounded by dense forests, giving people a mysterious and peaceful feeling.
Along the way, perhaps because they entered the deep mountains, they encountered many small animals. There were lively and cute hares, and nimble and agile little squirrels. These little guys shuttled and played in the woods, attracting bursts of amazement from the old friends in the live broadcast room.
However, just as they were happily enjoying the beauty of nature, Gu Changlin suddenly stopped, looking nervous, and whispered:
"Shh...there's movement."
He seemed to have noticed something unusual and reminded the two to keep quiet.
"Don't move. Get down."
Gu Chang was stunned and didn't understand what was going on. Gu Xile next to him was very experienced and had already crouched down!
Gu Chang also lowered his body cautiously and asked in a low voice: "Uncle Gu, what's wrong?"
Gu Changlin pointed to a cliff about sixty or seventy meters away. Gu Chang looked in the direction of his finger and his eyes froze instantly!
I saw an extremely huge snake appear in the gap between the trees. The snake looked to be at least 2 meters long, as thick as a bowl, black with yellow spots all over its body, and shaped like cauliflower!
"Be careful, it's a rat snake. It's really big!" Gu Xile poked his head out and said in surprise while looking at the big snake in the distance.
Gu Chang also recognized it. This was the King Elaphe from the Qinling Mountains. Because of its cauliflower-like appearance, this snake was also called "cauliflower snake."
When they heard that there was a big snake, the friends in the live broadcast room immediately became excited.
"Where is the snake? Quick, quick, anchor, let's take a look!"
"Yes, yes, yes, take a look, take a look..."
"Do you think it's creepy? That snake is colorful and scary!"
"..."
"Wow, it's so big! It's so thick!"
"This snake pattern looks really scary!"
"It's so scary! Such a thick snake, it looks like a python!"
"Is this thing poisonous?" someone asked curiously.
At this time, an old friend explained: "This is a king snake, also known as a snake king or a king snake. It is relatively large, with a total length of up to 2.5 meters and a weight of 5 to 10 kilograms! Although this snake is ferocious, it is non-venomous! In the wild, they mainly eat mice, frogs, birds and bird eggs."
"Wow, so that's how it is. I've learned something new!" others exclaimed.
"But they have very violent personalities. When they encounter other snakes, they will actively attack them. So there is a saying in the countryside: If there are only king cobras in one place, there will be no poisonous snakes within ten miles." Someone else added.
"Will it attack people? Be careful, anchor!"
"Yes, this is too dangerous!"
"..."
Gu Changlin said: "It's okay, as long as we don't provoke it and stay away from it, it won't attack us!"
Gu Chang nodded in agreement. Rape snakes are indeed quite common in the Qinling Mountains, and he had caught this kind of snake many times when he was a child.
However, the rat snake encountered this time was different. Its size was so huge that it was frightening. After more than ten minutes of waiting, the rat snake finally slowly disappeared into the depths of the jungle, as if a nightmare had finally ended.
As the danger was lifted, the audience in the live broadcast room finally put their minds at ease. They left messages expressing their relief and concern.
"This jungler is really dangerous. The anchor was almost ganked by the snake girl..."
Someone joked.
"Who said it wasn't? The jungle trio encountered a full-level Medusa and almost got wiped out!" another person echoed.
"Fortunately, we were hiding in the bushes and the snake girl had no sight, otherwise, it would have been another tragedy!" someone else added.
"..."
Everyone in the live broadcast room joked crazily.
Gu Chang was speechless watching this, every day!
It’s true that mentally retarded netizens are so much fun!
