Xia Ruofei suddenly saw that next to the Dendrobium Candium, there was a crooked tree that was almost parallel to it protruding out of the cliff. And on the branch of this tree, there was a huge hornet's nest, with a few scattered hornets flying in and out …
The hornet's nest was about twenty to thirty centimeters in diameter and nearly one meter in length. Xia Ruofei couldn't help but feel a chill from the bottom of his heart when he saw it.
The hornet's venom was very strong. After the hornet's venom entered the human body, there would be symptoms of myolysis. In serious cases, it would cause kidney failure, heart failure, and even respiratory failure.
There were often news reports of people dying after being stung by hornets. Some people died after being stung by hornets in forty to thirty places.
The hornet's nest was so huge that there were at least one to two thousand hornets. If Xia Ruofei was careless and attracted the hornets' attention, even if he had the rare flower petals, he wouldn't be able to use them in time.
It was impossible to see the situation here from the top of the cliff. Just now, on the opposite side of the pool, Xia Ruofei didn't notice the hornet's nest because of the cover of the leaves and the fact that he was mainly focused on identifying the Dendrobium Candium.
Now that the rope was lowered to this position, it was equivalent to being suspended in midair.
Xia Ruofei didn't even dare to breathe loudly, afraid that he would alert the hornets inside.
He carefully observed for a while, then lightly stepped on the cliff with his foot and grabbed the rope with his other hand, preparing to quietly climb up before he was exposed. Suspended in midair was equivalent to being a live target. No matter how agile he was, there was no way he could avoid the hornets' attack.
Xia Ruofei was already very careful, but he still couldn't avoid making a sound.
Soon, his jacket accidentally brushed against a small branch next to him, making a rustling sound.
A few hornets suddenly turned around and flew towards Xia Ruofei.
I've been discovered!
At this moment, Xia Ruofei's hair stood on end.
Years of living on the edge of a knife made him have a keen intuition for danger.
There was no way to go up to the sky or down to the ground. In the next moment, it was very likely that the hornets would swarm out of the nest.
Even if Xia Ruofei had the heaven-defying flower petals, he wouldn't be able to use them in time in the face of thousands or even thousands of hornets.
Xia Ruofei had extraordinary strength, but in the face of the hornets, she did not have any ability to defend herself.
As long as a tiny bit of poison from each wasp entered Xia Ruofei's body, one or two thousand wasps would be enough to kill Xia Ruofei instantly.
Xia Ruofei's mind seemed to have entered a state of emptiness.
The more critical the situation was, the calmer he would be. This was something he had learned from his many years in the military.
Within a thousandth of a second, Xia Ruofei made a decision that was perhaps the only effective one.
Without any hesitation, he reflexively summoned the Spirit Map Scroll from his palm.
Then, he quickly stuffed the scroll into his trouser pocket and grabbed the rope tightly with one hand. With a powerful kick, his entire body swung towards Hornet's Nest!
The giant Hornet's Nest was getting closer and closer.
At this moment, everything in front of her seemed to be in slow motion in a movie. Xia Ruofei could clearly see the holes on the beehive that kept enlarging in her eyes, as well as the terrifying hornets that could be faintly seen inside.
Xia Ruofei's mind was extremely calm, and his eyes were filled with an unwavering determination.
In almost an instant, Xia Ruofei used the inertia to rush in front of the Hornet's Nest.
He gritted his teeth, reached out, grabbed the top of the Hornet's Nest, and pulled it down forcefully …
Buzz!
He had really poked the Hornet's Nest!
Xia Ruofei could hear a buzzing sound that seemed to ring in his ears. Under normal circumstances, one or two thousand Wasps would swarm out of the Hornet's Nest in the next moment, and Xia Ruofei would be stung to death in an extremely short amount of time.
However, the moment the Wasps were about to leave the Hornet's Nest, the entire Hornet's Nest suddenly disappeared into thin air. Along with it, most of the Wasps that didn't get out in time disappeared.
Yes, this was the method that Xia Ruofei had thought of in an instant.
He knew that after being discovered by the Wasps, there was no way for him to hide.
If he wanted to escape, he could only take the risk and store the entire Hornet's Nest into the Dimension.
The entire process had to be decisive and accurate. If Xia Ruofei hesitated for a moment, the Wasps would have already swarmed out. By then, it would be useless even if he stored the Hornet's Nest into the Dimension.
Moreover, Xia Ruofei had to succeed in one go because there was no chance for him to do it again.
He swung over with the rope, pulled down the Hornet's Nest, and stored it. There was only one chance for the entire process, and there was no room for him to do it again.
Fortunately, Xia Ruofei had trained in the Lone Wolf Commandos for seven years, and his mental fortitude was extremely strong. Needless to say, his physical condition was even better. He was the best Special Forces soldier, and he had absorbed so many strange flower petals. Even he didn't know how strong his physical condition was.
Therefore, Xia Ruofei was able to make a decision in an instant, and succeed in one try under extremely difficult circumstances, resolving a life-threatening crisis.
After the giant Hornet's Nest was stored into the Dimension, there were about twenty to thirty Wasps that had drifted outside the Hornet's Nest.
Xia Ruofei didn't dare to let his guard down. If he wasn't careful, these twenty to thirty Wasps could still take his life.
When Xia Ruofei stored the giant Hornet's Nest into the Ring-Tu space, he immediately pulled out the military dagger that had accompanied him for many years from his waist.
Now, Xia Ruofei's reflexes and skills were far better than when he was serving in the Lone Wolf Commandos. He held the rope tightly with one hand, and the other hand quickly waved the dagger. In the cold light of the dagger, the Wasps were cut in half by the blade, and fell into the pool below.
However, the Wasps' flying speed was very fast, and their trajectories were erratic. Twenty to thirty Wasps swarmed up at once, so Xia Ruofei couldn't avoid being stung twice. The stings were on his arm that was holding the rope, because there was no way for him to dodge.
The wound quickly swelled up, and the pain and numbness were instantly transmitted to his brain through his nerves.
After confirming that he had dealt with all the Wasps, Xia Ruofei's mind moved. He took out a porcelain bottle from the Ring-Tu space, and poured some flower petal solution on the stings.
He felt a cooling sensation, and the red and swollen area quickly went down at a speed visible to the naked eye.
After storing the flower petal solution and the Spirit Map Scroll back into his palm, Xia Ruofei let out a sigh of relief.
He realized that he was already covered in cold sweat.
What happened just now was too dangerous!
If his reaction was a second slower, those Wasps would've rushed out of the Hornet's Nest, and even the gods wouldn't be able to save him.
Now that the giant Hornet's Nest was stored into the Ring-Tu space, Xia Ruofei didn't care about it for the time being. When collecting the Hornet's Nest, Xia Ruofei also considered that Little Black and the other puppies were in the new space. He was worried that they would be hurt by the Wasps, so he stored the Hornet's Nest in the original space.
As for how to deal with the Hornet's Nest in the original space, that was the next step to consider.
Xia Ruofei then quickly harvested the Dendrobium Candium along with its roots.
He then continued to descend, and dug out all the Dendrobium Candium from the other areas.
There were a total of six Dendrobium Candium Candium plants, and they were all pure wild Dendrobium Candium plants.
Xia Ruofei climbed up the cliff using the rope, and then returned to the pool along the original path.
He put all the Dendrobium Candium Candium in plastic bags, and stored them in the Ring-Tu space.
Then, he took the handheld GPS and continued to set off along the predetermined path. Since he was already here, he naturally wanted to find as many Dendrobium Candium Candium as possible. That way, when he planted them in the Ring-Tu space in the future, he would be able to achieve a larger scale in one go.
As for the giant Hornet's Nest, he would have to wait until he returned to the three mountains to deal with it. (To be continued.)
